[Q] charging port fit - Moto X Q&A

Anyone else notice that the charging port on the MX is really tight? I feel like I'm going to break it when I'm plugging the cord in.
Edit: just realized I should have posted this in the q&a section. Mods please move if necessary.

Not the slutty type of charging port but her less experienced, more innocent but hotter friend. I just don't want any breakage to occur.

1 year warranty applies. I won't worry about it and am happy that it won't just fall out. The cavernous type aren't appealing either.

It was like this on my phone too, but more than a week on and it is less scary to plug the phone in.

Is it an upgrade

I ask this as a user of nexus 4 and would like to hear from ex n4 users who have bought the HTC one as it's a lot of money to fork out if it's like for like... of this is not a troll

Never used a Nexus 4 so can't compare, I did however make the jump up from the HTC One X, a very powerful handset although highly underrated by the general public...
It was a good jump up, I am astounded constantly by my One, sometimes even just picking it up to hold it in my hands, not doing anything with it, just nice to hold it

send me the money and i will otherwise its save or sell my n4 and n7,just wanted to know if its worth it
I think it's a worth while upgrade, I don't believe that you'd regret it.
It might be a good idea to wait for a little bit until the first batches are gone and you can get a 2nd batch handset.
I've got no issues really with mine, it's a decent handset and I love it harder than any phone I've ever owned.
I think the fact that you're asking this in the 'One' threads is a bit hit & miss as we're probably more biased towards getting one than not but then again we can give you an accurate idea of what the handset is like... swings & roundabouts.

Pikey is as pikey does. If you can't afford the ride you're a spectator
It's well worth an upgrade. It's a step change in design and functionality.

Perhaps, but it's not an excuse to bash someone who's genuinely asking a question.
I just found your attitude to be reprehensible.

SD Card HTC One(Kick Starter)

Anyone from way back in May/April remember that kick starter project to make mini SD card readers and some of us thought it would be a great idea.Well 5 months later and it has finally arrived and works very well..Now I can take Zoes and move em over to the SD card to free up space for other things.

Yes I know..But not this portable. I guess if you dont mind having an otg cable and a huge USB stick hanging off your phone,have at it.
Ill take this with a microSD card any time.
Me too where can I buy?

good luck wrecking your usb port by plugging and unplugging 100 times for the day

Yes, also try to not adb to your device too often and do not charge in the car. Same goes for the headset jack, it is best to stick a "Pluggy" in it and leave it alone.
Other than that, this is much more compact than my otg cable and drive. I will be ordering one, thanks for pointing it out.
This will make life easier for business travel! Thank you for sharing!

got mine today. works great.
btw, how was the finish on yours? i got the silver also, but the finish on my is uneven and textured in some spots (esp the cap). looks like a lot of dirt and debris got on it before it was sprayed.
speaking of kickstarter pressy is a sweet idea.

The finish is in fact a little mediocre(paint) and the mold seems to be just a tad crooked and the cap is a ***** to get back on.But over all it does what it said it would do... Can't get my Kingsington 64GB micro SD to work but I remember having issues with it in my Note 2 before I sold it as well so it may be damaged..If you get a 64GB card to work please give me a heads up.
EDIT: Nevermind,got 64GB working!
You do need to keep an eye on your USB port. A few people have actually wrecked theirs from normal use. Mine is getting looser by the week, with more and more play in it.
I would recommend using this sparingly.

We get it.But its a damn port and i'm going to plug things into it when need be..Its wants to be plugged :victory: ..If ya know how to plug things in normal and not like a manic beast I think we will be ok.In all honesty this thing plugs in way smoother than any of my charging cables.
I'm waiting in mine. Well be good for when I'm done foreclosing a few movies. Time to check the mail.

So BrianBaker did you get any confirmation or heads up that it was coming? I ordered a while back also and it said early September but haven't heard anything.

YAND - Yet Another Nexus Dock

Hey - I wanted to show off my latest 3D printed dock, this time for the nexus 10.
I borrowed the design ideas from what I saw posed on here and tried to build off of it.
I think the one unique thing about it is that it is made of glazed ceramic instead of that usual plastic. It is very study and has some nice heft, while keeping 3D printing costs down.
I designed it to be able to keep the nexus docked while in my folio case, since I will snatch it off the stand before heading out the door. However, this will dock with or without the case. (FYI this is my case: http://www.roocase.com/Slim-Fit-Veg...--Black-rooCASE/cat-p/c1000036/p10518806.html)
It is designed for the standard POGO magnetic cable.
I just wanted to get thoughts on this if anyone would be interested in one or what questions you might have about it.
I finally got together my shapeways site where you can order the dock if you're interested.
Let me know what you think, or feel free to post in the thread, thanks!
http://shpws.me/rY5i
Thanks again to everyone in this forum for the great ideas!
I guess no one, huh?
I am a little late to the dock party...
Your idea is very good but, in general, nexus10 forum is quite dead.

Agree. Unfortunate really...and surprising. I've had 3 of these in my family and none had any issues whatsoever. They are all in use and still running pretty darn good! I've compared to newer tablets but this really is still a great tablet. Not sure why this forum is so dead.

That's probably the reason, no issues = no reason to search for a forum to find fixes.
Very nice dock.
Would you share your 3D-files? STEP, STL?

Amen to this! There are two reasons for a dead forum on XDA: long abandoned device, or no issues to complain about/develop solutions to!

Hey! Sorry for the delay, I've been pretty busy with work.
I finally got around to setting up the storefront through Shapeways, and have a link to the stand you can buy directly from there:
http://shpws.me/rY5i
I only selected options for the ceramic material, since plastics would have sent the price over $100.
Let me know what you guys think and if anyone really wants to be a baller and get it made in plastic, I'll add in those options, so just let me know.
I have a just one other tip: I sanded the plastic housing of the POGO cable down just a bit with some sand paper and put a piece of electrical tape on it so when I wedge it in, it stays put on docking and undocking.
Let me know if you guys have any other questions.
thanks!

Burning smell in Moto G

Well my phone has a burning plastic like smell, I have asked for replacement
Good
I have replaced my phone for other problem but that smell is present on this phone also...
May be it's because of the water resistant coating.

Yeah I also have this smell on my device.. But as my device doesn't get heated.. I suppose this smell due to the plastic used in our device
Just opened the package, and started the phone. i was deleting large file of my sdcard, my bramd new phone started geting hot with smell. what should i do? should i observe 2-3 days with complete charging discharging cycles?
I got a replacement, though its not heating that much but the smell is still present. its coming from headphone jack and usb port. we can notice it only when i place my nose on it. did anybody check it?

Wobbly chargin port

Hi. I noticed after 2 days my charging port moves side to side,but not much,just millimeters maybe.
Just want to know whether its normal?
Thanks!
same for me.

I am on a Telegram group from Spain. Other users reports the same issue.. Tomorrow i'll chat with +1 support.
USB-C ports are supposed to wobble a little. It helps prevent them from breaking. If they were perfectly stiff, they would break much more easily.
