I've noticed a few different times now when I pick up my Moto X and the screen activates to show the time/notifications that they are cut off, like there's some sort of hard edge cutting off part of the numbers in the time display. Anyone else noticed this? It doesn't do it when I wake the screen with the power button, only with the active display thing like it's not waking all the pixels it's supposed to or something, it's getting really annoying.
Here's a picture:

and another for good measure:
This is my second Moto X, the first had debris inside the camera lens. I've still got a week on Best Buy's 14 day return policy, hopefully 3rd times a charm. Really love the phone.
I am having the same issue with my phone. I searched around and this is the first mention of the problem that I have found.
Are your moto x made in the U.S. ? I've seen people in this forum saying that the ones sold outside US are made in China and have a better build quality.
BTW... I think the tattooist made a small 'typo' on the second Chinese letter on your arm.....
Don't have an answer for your problem but I do have a question. What kind of case kid that and does it have a built in screen protector? How do you like it? Not super bulky.

The case is a Trident Kraken AMS and yes it has a built in screen protector. It definitely adds some bulk to the phone, but I'm a metal fabricator and have to protect it from welding, metal flakes, grease, dust etc. Part of the reason I went with the Moto over the g2 is size because I knew I needed a heavy duty case, can't beat Trident. They have 5 cases for the moto x right now.
Lol about my tattoo, I'm aware of the "typo." First one I got when I was 18, haven't had the heart to fix/cover it. 13 years and that's the first time someone has called me on it.
And mine is a USA moto. Going to exchange it one more time today and see what happens.
I am facing the same problem.. Any luck in solving it?

Wow. Necro-thread. To answer your question, I had my phone replaced. Nothing I tried fixed the issue. Haven't had any problems with this one 18ish months.

I had the 2013 Moto X and loved it. With Verizon orders up tomorrow morning, I'll surely be ordering one. What do owners of the older wooden models have to say? Does the wood hold up with time? Should I go with it or just stick with the plastic?
Too late. I just pulled the plug. Will take pics when I get it in.

What did you end up going with? I've been toying with the idea of a bamboo back or going all white. Not sure if it's worth the extra money for the back since I'll have it in a case anyway if I get one.

I got the Walnut. I don't use cases, so it was a pretty easy decision for me.
I got the bamboo and I like it, only time will tell if it stands up though
Same here. Got the bamboo back. Its great.
I used a wood back on my 2013 Moto X and it held up well. I never saw any scratches or anything, and there was no separation of the back from the phone. I was pleased with it. I'm not particularly rough on my phones, but not overly gentle either. I did use a leather slipcase for the phone though.
I ended up going black/black/gold (to match my Moto 360). I was going to get the wood back, but I wanted the white front if I did that. And I didn't want to pay more money and have to wait longer.
For those of you that did get it and want to show it off while keeping it protected, are you going to go the body/invisible shield route? I had a Zagg on my OG Droid, and it held up amazingly well. It took a dive out of my car at 50mph, and the screen stayed flawless and it still functioned perfectly fine (even with road rash and a bent frame).

I'm considering it for the X, as I don't really want to add bulk, and I want to be able to show off the phone.
Just returned my SGS5 due to an air bubble or something under the front panel.
I've seen a lot of black SGS5 with this issue on one of the corners or around the home button. It is visible with sunlight or under a lamp. You need to pass your fingers around the front panel and then they will appear.
Check these pictures I took to see what I mean:

On the white model it can't be seen. Only on black ones.
Check to see if you have it.
Mines fine....had it since release
That happened to my friend but only after he dropped it, luckily on the carpet. Very cheap work from Samsung on a flag ship.
And it's really annoying... any way to fix it?
I had that develop - had the phone since launch day and the bubble developed 2 weeks ago. I took it into Samsung repair Centre and they replaced the screen within the day.

Disappointing to see such quality issues on their flagship.
Checked mine, looking fine so far, have it since launch.
It's mostly noticeable on the black model and in daylight at certain angles.
I've also seen it around the home button.
I've checked several black ones with this issue on stores.
None of them have the tempered glass screen protectors do they? I would hate to see everyone freaking out because their screen protector isn't lined up exactly how it should and creating the same problem.
I can speak from experience. Not that I thought my screen was messed up, but from how there is 0% tolerance with some of the tempered glass screen protectors and they need to be lined up perfectly or else around the corners they will have air bubbles exactly as everyone here shows.

Yes. Mine too, but the glass protection has been changed from 2 monhs ago. There is no scratch on it and I don't use cover
It's a really weird issue.
A guy above said he's was fine and the bubble appeared 2 weeks ago.
Is this something that can appear at a later time?
I think this is due to the waterproof protection.
..
And here it is. My first cracked phone. Don't forget your case kids. My friend accidentally slapped it out of my hand and it hit the floor at an angle, then fell flat. I decided not to use a case on the turbo because I have always been careful with phones.

Image is not showing but I can imagine what it looks like. Sorry to hear that.
It shows up on my screen but I added just the link as well.
Wow that looks bad, covers the entire screen! Hopefully you have insurance...
If not have you tried looking for a replacement glass, does the digitizer still work.
Verizon offers one free replacement for a cracked screen on the Turbo. No insurance needed.

I'm getting the one time replacement and it arrives Tuesday/Wednesday. The screen still works but hard to see on the upper right corner. I don't get insurance because it's $11 a month, and I treat my phones well (and besides, I could always get a OPO or used LG G3 if the screen ever cracks again). I'll be sure to have a case always on my next Turbo.

OPO doesn't work on Verizon. It's GSM-only (Verizon is a CDMA network).
Wow. I've been reading about allot of dropped/broken screens on the Turbo recently.
Yikes!! That took a direct hit! That is why I purchased a Otter Box defender for mine. I have M.S. and my hands dont always work the greatest and this is reasons why I purchase cases. Glad that youll recieve your replacement soon.
If my friend did that, I would "accidentally" slap him across the face. With a meat cleaver.
Hi guys,
I have my shiny new phone at last! Feels like such a big upgrade from my old OnePlus One (well maybe bar the screen)
So here is what £24.45 brought me from Amazon (the price of an official OnePlus cover)
I have posted a few things about the FlexiCase already but you can ask me about anything...
My first impressions are that it is all presented very well giving it a premium feel for such a great price. I feel everything you get is a really awesome deal and just wanted to let you guys know.
Here is a pic of my package:

Orzly FlexiCase

Orzly 5 in 1 screen protector pack
Orzly Multifunctional Wallet case
I have my final exam on Monday so bear with me. I will update as much as I can as soon as I can, but please feel free to ask me any questions
Hope you are all enjoying or are as excited about your OP3 as I am...
I have got a case from OnePlus and Cruzerlite on its way so hopefully I can give feedback on those too.
Having put on the screen protectors, I would definitely recommend them over OP as a short term solution. Fits more of the screen!
Here are some great uses of the the ring! Use it to hold the OP3 if you have smaller hands, using it as a stand on tables and even wall mounting...
How do these ring stands secure to the phone again?

OK I have been looking at these. Too cheap to spend the 8 bux to just check it out, but, does the ring get in the way a lot when you don't want to use it. In other words, does it fold down nicely and stay or keep flapping around. I am thinking this may be a good thing for me to use because I use my phone with another BT device at the same time (getting into lockboxes) and have dropped phones more than once fumbling around.

I didnt want to say the brand of skin in title, cause i feel like im advertising the company or something.
Ill attach a screenshot of the image I was going to use, it shows the company im thinking of using, i know nothing about it, they could be utter trash skins.
Anyone used this before? how was the outcome?
thanks.

hmm, im actually going to crop that pic more, looks like a freakin ad dude. honestly how do you even talk about stuff on here without sounding like a shill
ok there, i covered half the company name, and this thread was asking people if theyve used it before, so if they have that should be enough.
I've used this company's product before and it's a good product for what it is. With that said, I took mine off after a few days because I couldn't stand the slight feeling of stickness around the edges. I don't think that's really preventable, so it's not a knock on quality, it's just a nature of having a wrap. I also noticed pocket lint and the occasional hair getting stuck in the glue at the edges. For me it just seemed janky so I went back to a normal case.

cool, thanks. and yea, im not getting this for protection - seeing as it provides absolutely none. But, maybe there is a way to buff the edges after application to dull the glueiness, who knows. either way i will see how it is.
