[Q] OK Google now issues - Moto X Q&A

I have an XT1058 running the T-Mobile 4.4 software, in also rooted and running Greenify. I've also flashed radios from Brazil retail to be compatible with band 7 on Rogers.
Lately no matter how loud I yell OK Google now it doesn't activate, not even with the phone right in front of my face. Only when the phone is on it'll work but the phone has to be right in front of my face.
How do I fix it? Anyone else having the same issue?

Have you tried retraining your Moto X in a quiet room? I find that that helps a ton when mine gets buggy.

(Q) D3 3g data dropout issue.

I'm just curious if anyone else is having an issue with their data dropping out on a stock D3.
Sent from my Incredible 2 HD using Tapatalk
Mine has been fine. What ROM stock are you running? The very first ROM that Verizon released is buggy but doihg an update to 5.6.890 is a good idea.

I believe she is currently running that.

Then you need to call Verizon Tech Support and tell them the exact issue from another phone besides the one ailing. A couple simple suggestions: do a *228 options 1 and 2, and make sure it is set to Home Only on roaming. Another possibility is the battery saver data manager is running and making it so it shuts off data during specific times and comes on when the screen is on. Make sure the wireless isn't set to Global but CDMA only.

We tried all of that. Thanks for the suggestions though. Nothing seems to work though. We just got this phone like a week ago because her other was doing the same thing. The new one did it while I was on the phone activating it lol. She's tired of it and I'm tired of hearing the complaints so I told her to sell it because she wants an iPhone.

MotoConnect broken on root?

Just did a factory reset of my phone and rooted it yesterday - Cannot seem to get Moto Connect to work? Is the service down, or is this an issue regarding root?
I am rooted and connect still works for me..
Connect has been giving me problems since I got the phone

rooted, works fine.
mightytext in the play store works well on my phone. been using it long before moto connect was out. if you are having trouble check this out until moto makes their service more reliable. its a chrome extension as well and a website too.

You may have frozen some services that effect it... That's what I did and just managed to get it back.

(Vzw) dialer after 4.4 update

SO, j ust got the kit kat update. The new dialer, however, only searches for contacts I already have and does not bring up any local places/businesses search results. Anyone else having this issue?? Location is most certainly on!
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4
Some people are saying that the bringing up places and businesses may be a Nexus 5 exclusive for now, just like we didn't get the GEL either. I'm not 100% sure myself

Navigation

Sometimes, when I am navigating, maps does not know where I am. For example when I come to a stop at a "T" intersection, maps shows me about 100 feet away from the intersection and then, when I make the turn, it may show me as going straight. *It eventually catches up to me. This does not happen all the time but enough to be annoying and dangerous. *I've tested it with my son's and husbands motoX side by side with and they don't have the issue. *Does anyone know if this is a software or a hardware issue? *Do other people have this problem too?

I'm not trying to question your smarts but do you switch to high accuracy mode? From battery saver or device only? You could also go into WiFi settings and let WiFi scan while off, it will get a better lock on your location.

I am in high accuracy mode and scan for Wi-Fi while off is set. Not insulted at all.

Are you on T-Mobile network?
Sent from my XT1053 using Tapatalk 2
Yes T-Mobile

I'd think the relates to the other thread we're in at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2593098
I'm really going that we can get some action in this from Motorola as this is really not acceptable as location based use is really becoming a staple of smartphone use beyond just navigation. Tweet this thread to Motorola support.

Roam control

Anybody else not able to use rc with the moto x. Its driving me nuts. I really need it to work. It does nothing when I hit roam only. I am rooted with stock rom and xposed + Gravitybox. Thanks.
Sent from my XT1056 using Tapatalk
I can't believe I'm the only one who uses this utility...
Sent from my XT1056 using Tapatalk
Roaming? Like when I gotta pay more cause I'm out of my area and it picks up other network towers?
Yeah...I gotta pay a lot extra if that happens.....disabled. lol.
I doubt anyone uses roam only. You may actually be the first.
Unless you're talking something else entirely.
Good luck tho.

Nah. there's an app called roam control. It allows you to force roam. For sprint users its a must because they roam on Verizon's towers. I need it to work. Any help would be appreciated
Sent from my XT1056 using Tapatalk
I hate to bump this. I need ppl to see it though. If theres anyone who uses roam control please help. The developer does not respond to my emails. I've sent 4...

There's been a new update. Anyone know if the new update will work with our sprint moto x

What update are you referring to?
Update to roam control
I am familiar with roam control. If you read the app description, it specifically states it works with a few specific devices only. Moto x is not one, and I can confirm. Not a possibility, sorry. We can put this to rest now...
