you can just block number i believe that is a feature of phone itself.

I had already looked for a call block feature, but no joy!

He's misinformed. It doesn't have that feature.
I use the pro version (paid) of this app. It works very well.
I did try the free version first but quickly went pro.

Try an app called Mr.number it blocks the calls and sms also. Change the blocking options to send to voice mail and u won't even know they called. It's a free app and does the job perfectly

I think I'm going to have to root as I need a call blocker that will not wake up the phone.

no ... no root required..i am using this past 4 years..... jst install and enjoy.... in options set it not to notify blocked call or sms...thats all.... u can manually check the log..and it hides entries from loag too...that too free....

I believe you can go to a contact in the phonebook app and then tick the option to make the call go directly to voicemail!
Enjoy .

Touchless Control, OK Google Now

I really like my new Moto X but touch less control has been disappointing. I'm batting about 60% on activating Google Now.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Update 28 Aug
The original phone was defective so no issues with new phone. Touchless Controls now works great!

Did you "train" the phone to your voice? Or does it even requires it?
Sent from my MB886 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I've trained the phone multiple times. Touchless control will not work when the phone is on deep sleep. Works OK otherwise.

Working perfect on my Rogers version.
Its not perfect, was driving this morning and I was listening to my radio, out of the blue my moto started to play my music

Touchless Control is Google Now except it activates automatically after you state "OK Google Now".

Go into the "Assist" app, select "Driving" and make sure 'Resume Music Play" isn't checked off
It works perfectly for me. Just one silly question: how do I get the phone to greet me with my name instead of simple good morning or good afternoon? Where is the setting for the greeting phrase? Thanks!

[app] [s-voice]

Instructions:
Download from here
Flash Zip in recovery.
Reboot, skip setup wizard and press microphone (Or say 'Hi Galaxy') to start using.
Notes:
Google Now is faster, but this app has been modded to have a sexier voice
Also opens more apps, will tell jokes, shamelessly bag Siri, plus many other personal interactions, depending on what is asked
Available in US English only.
Have fun :good:

Z1s missing touch blocker small app?

In the user manual it says there should be a small app to block the touch screen for under water use of the camera. Any one have it on their device? Can't seem to find it. Is it on the Z1 so maybe we can pull it?

Any other z1s owners have it or can get it to work?

Keep screen off when plugging in charger?

I'm looking for something to disable my screen switching on when I attach in my magnetic charger.
I'm not sure why it annoys me so much, but it does. Anybody have any recommendations?
Thanks!

unfortunately there is no option for this on official firmware
but there is such option in cyangenMod rom setting.
:good:
Nightmare, just flashed and set up kitslim. Was hoping there would be an xposed module or something

use gravitybox. I think it's available there.
Screen Tweaks from Xposed has this option
Checked gravity box and couldn't see that option anywhere.
Screen tweaks seems only to be for the Z1C, I tried it on my z1 and it changed nothing
Sent from my C6903 using XDA Free mobile app
After change options, you need to restart the phone.
It seems to be working now, think it must have been a ROM issue.
Cheers!

It's good to know that's its working on your Z1 now.
I am using Trinity Raptor ROM and the developer already included the Screen Tweak on the package.
