Spotlight Stories - Moto X Q&A

Did anybody on verizon, that didnt update to latest ota, get the Windy Day story? Mine has yet to come.

I seriously have zero idea how that thing works. Theres no app icon, you have to add the widget to your homescreen and all it does is give you a 'this is because our users are awesome blah blah blah' and thats it. Am I dumb here?

I still just have empty spotlight widget that brings you to demo video. I believe it should have a hat in it once story downloads and then it will bring you to the interactive story. I'm just wondering if I'm not getting video because I still haven't taken the Verizon ota.

You didn't see this already posted in general and the apps/themes section? And you post days after it was released?

Actually, it has been days. This thread (still on the first page of the Apps section) was started July 12th. I only looked because I saw your thread though, so thanks, I guess. However you left off an important part: how to watch rented movies with rooted phones: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1167580 (that one started two days ago, by the way )
Who cares if its been days? Oh wait, you do. That's right.

What sucks is the camera is NOT fixed and is damn slow.

My camera takes 4-8 seconds to launch and is SLOW to focus and take pictures. The blue tint is gone though, yes.
But its not usable if it doesn't launch in a second and shoot within a second of hitting the button. Especially trying to shoot a moving 1 year old.

Keep in mind this is a cell phone. I will admit though of all the droids I've had, this one is the slowest to launch by far. I feel like they could probably make it faster to start up.

That's a wee bit of a cop out excuse though. I've had quite a few android phones and an iphone at one point. I also own a very expensive DSLR. It be different if I had unrealistic expectations, but a quick launch camera and a quick point and shoot is definitely within the realm of possible. My frist droid x and droid incredible were lightning fast and very useful. It needs some optimization. The current camera is unnacceptable to take a shot. Shot quality if the stars align are actually really good and the video camera is fine (and focusses faster than the camera) hopefully some effort will br put into it.

I thought one of the biggest selling points to the droid was the fact that it came with a 8mp hd camera. But turns out to be the bigggest fail. Yes its a phone but its a smart phone bought with the thought that it could do thing better than a normal cell phone.
Guys, please keep this thread on topic. Plenty of camera threads around or start your own, thanks!

There a few out now, but none that are really that great. There is supposed to be an App Store coming soon that is hosted by none other than the Cyanogenmod team. This app store is expected to be the home of the "Google banned" apps so keep an eye out for that. I don't think it is up yet, but it sounds like this is what you and many others have been waiting for.

CM 10.2

Either I'm crazy and produced a ROM from thin air or there was a 10.2 thread this morning that has disappeared. Can someone help me figure out which it is? I'm most certainly running 10.2

First!!! In before locked.
Did I miss something while at work? I'm just curious if there's a reason the thread disappeared and if I should be concerned about my device due to known issues that are irreversible.

bummer i missed out. But i really like sense...so whats the issue, is it not an official release or something? and why is it all so hush hush? im just curious.
It was an unofficial release but I dont see why he would have been blocked for that. So far people arnt seeing too many issues.
The new trebuchet looks nice! And so does focal. Cool that they got camera working from the get go.
Not as stable as I'd like though, so not gonna be a daily driver anytime soon.
BTW - to those who have flashed... are you noticing spotty data reception so far... or am I just paranoid? >.>
Your paranoid...
For people who want it I just finished building a build for those who want it I can post it. If it's OK with xda :angel:

there are unlocked codes available now for it.
as asked above, what exactly is this?
I used themer solidly for maybe a day total before uninstalling it. Its a great concept in terms of making a phone look different from stock but it completely fails in ease of use. I don't use social or shopping apps but over half the themes have a folder for those. And deleting either folder kind of kills the look. Also, that weather widget almost never shows the actual temperature. No matter how my times I reopen the app, it refuses to update.
