Date (3G) disconnect

I am using the latest version of Touch Tools: pr1.4, and have my settings to "AUTO DISCONNECT DATA CONN', which works very well EXCEPT: every morning when I take the phone out of "sleep" I see that the data connection is ON.
I have traced the issue to ms MYPHONE, which is scheduled to run at 0517am every morning. I changed the run time to 0700am and after MYPHONE is complete, the data connection remains ON. It was OFF prior to MYPHONE running.
Every other application that requires or uses DATA, the connection shuts down within seconds after the app is closed.
Any thoughts or suggestions?

Hey Bro,
Check out G-Profile, you can set your data based on time or cell location.

'sup Bruce! Not a bad idea, but it is only that one app, all the others shut off after done, just like Touch Tools is set to do.
I guess I want to know if anyone else has this issue with myPhone, and have you figured how to stop it. It isn't a big deal, just one of those darn quirks that has me puzzled. Kinda like the last time I had to take a primary cover off my bike and ONE darn screw needed an impact driver to remove, the rest came out easy...why? Murphy's Law?

[Q] How turn is on bluetooth on watch

Reset device or full wipe do not help. Phones not see watch. Please help!!!

Go in parameter to enable ?

Where to look? I can not find.

With the screen on, hold the button in. That will bring up different settings

The first paragraph of brightness. The second device. Item no bluetooth. Paragraph device shows "Bluetooth is currently disabled"

Check if Airplane mode is not activated in parameter.

I have the same problem. All started with the HTC One M7 problems with no audio during calls.
Did Full Wipe on the phone, reinstalled, finally got it working but couldn't connect the watch to Android Wear.
Restored Android Watch and data with Titanium but still nothing.
Finally read that you have to reset the watch. Did that and now I'm stuck on the "Install Android wear on your phone" screen.
I've tried connecting to the watch with different phones without any success..none of the phones sees the watch.
If I push the crown I get the settings page with only the following options:
Adjust Brightness
Bluetooth Devices - which shows: Bluetooth is currently disabled)
Always on Screen
Power off
Restart
Reset device
About
no place to check the airplane mode...nothing.. It's like there should be a "switch" to start the bluetooth somewhere..
any ideas greatly appreciated. For the moment I have a nice black thing on my watch which isn't doing anything..

I have exactly the same problem. If you frequently press device. Bluetooth is activated for 3-5 minutes. Watch are charged watchfase. That's all. Off. :crying:

Not variant. Ebay shop.

Same Problem
I am having the same problem. Right now my LG G Watch R is useless. I wonder if it was on airplane mode before I factory restore it and that is what is causing the problem.

Anyone? No ideas whatsoever?
I did try the fridge thing...Worked once so I could pair the phone but didn't even sync.
Tried again with no success.

Well I have an update. I honestly don't know what has changed...but my watch works again. Having the occasional connection lost problem as reported by many in the new 5.0 update in the watch but nothing too serious.
Anyway, reset your watch. Forget the watch in the Android wear app (or delete data and clear cache), but also delete the paired watch from the phones bluetooth menu.( BTW: I deleted all my paired devices in the phones bluetooth menu and then paired the watch first, don't know if this affected or not, if all else fails you can try this also).
Then turn off bluetooth from your phone. Start Android wear app and let it turn on bluetooth. THis way I can pair my phone. Whenever the watch loses connection to the phone and doesn't reconnect toggle bluetooth off and on from the phone and it works again.
Perhaps it's because the watch is already on Lollipop and the phone not yet...

I haven't had any issues and my T-Mo G3 is still on Kit-Kat.
Best practice if pairing gets wonky or whatever, is exactly what you did. Clear / Forget all pairings. Turns everything off. Turn phone on, enable BT, run Android Wear, turn on Watch - wait - follow regular steps and everything should be golden.
If it's still not working, try a reset on the Watch - if it's still won't work, RMA or take it back to the place you bought it from.

I'm on lollipop on both watch and phone and getting constant disconnections
I will say that my rom is a leaked version of lollipop from Samsung on my note 3
But to date since Xmas it's been a joke
To the point that it might be going back if it doesn't get fixed in the next few days
I am going to go back to official kit kat later and see if that helps
I must say before the lollipop update on both watch and phone it worked brilliant not one disconnection when I trialled the watch when it was first delivered.
If it had been like it is now I would have sent it back there and then
I'm just hanging on because I know it did work prior to the updates
So I'm sure it will again

[Q] Moto X randomly dies

Ok, so I bought a brand new in box Moto X from an acquaintance. After a month or two it started randomly rebooting, and after a couple of weeks of rebooting once or more per day, it died. Wouldn't power on (not even recovery). I sent it in for repair>got it back>3 days and it died again>sent it in again>got it back>1 day and it died again>sent it in again>got replacement>2-3 months later the new phone is starting the cycle again. Every time I pull it out of my pocket, the lock button doesn't work, and it's locked up on Active Display. I hold the power button and reboot it, only to have it happen again in an hour. I am doing a factory reset now--does anyone have any idea what the problem may be? what i should avoid when setting it up again?
This phone is 100% untampered with. No root, no nothing.
Please help me out. Thanks!

That sounds like a headache.
When were both phones manufactured? What version of KK were you running? Did you upgrade software OTA, if so what did it upgrade to?
Are you saying you never downloaded any apps? never installed anything on the phone? What services did you use? (apps.. anything, what were they?) Were there any other things you noticed out of the ordinary? What were Motorola's responses the first time they replaced the phone? What are their responses now that you are having the same issues with this replacement device?
Otherwise I'd advise you let us know what modifications (apps installed, anything) you had done and continue to do, that will give a variable context to the issue, at least. Other wise we a have an issue with no variables on the actual phone. The more information you give the higher quality the responses you can receive

1) I don't know when the phones were manufactured. Can you advise me how to tell?
2) I had a number of apps on it including WhatsApp, BBM, Toggl, SwiftKey, The Weather Network, ES File Explorer, BBC, The Economist, Espresso, Google Now Launcher, Dictionary.com, TimmyMe, MyBackup Pro, eBay, Amazon, Kayak and a few others. It's still doing the same thing after a data wipe.
3) The first three times I had trouble they had me send in the phone with no quibbles. The first two times they tried to repair it (the documentation just said "replaced component, and reflashed software"), and after two failed attempts, they simply replaced it. Now they want to start the cycle over again... asking me to send it in for repair.
When they sent me the replacement it arrived with 4.4.4. The previous phone had issues with 4.4.2 and 4.4.3 both. I am still running stock 4.4.4.
Thanks for your help

Thanks, hopefully your info helps someone help you better or hopefully it can help/spark someone truly seasoned in android/moto x etc to chime in
To check your manufacture date boot into your fastboot menu, check image to verify you're there.
Then choose BP Tools and then once that menu loads choose the option for UPC/Manufacture date read out, check for the date when it appears on the screen, maybe you are on a batch that has specific issues.
I've never heard of this issue, yuk sounds terrible. Goodluck! If you do end up finding answers somewhere else can you please come back here and post the resolution?

When I hit BP Tools it just reboots the phone... I don't know what's wrong???

maybe static electricity?
or do you use any cases?
maybe wrong charger?

Multiple devices, different Android versions, Sounds like an app issue to me.
If it happens frequently, then that is good in a way... You could factory reset and don't install a single app. If it doesn't act up for a couple days ..... Install about 5 apps. Go a couple days.... Install 5 more, etc... Etc. When it starts to act up, you know it's an app you recently installed, so it'll be easier to narrow down.
A logcat could help too. Search on that for how. It would likely show what happened at the time of the reboot /shutdown.

use the volume +up button (once BP Tools is highlighted) and not the power button to select BP Tools I'm assuming that's what's happening, hmm

I would send it back to Motorola again. If the issues continue, tell them you want it replaced with something else like the 2014 Moto X.

Ok -- so the issues stopped completely over Christmas vacation, but I went back to work this morning (I work in a dusty woodworking plant) with my phone in my pocket, and bang, they were back. Every time I pulled my phone out of my pocket it had powered off, and finally it didn't want to power back on. I called Moto, and this time actually got a competent rep on the line. He blamed the issues on static electricity, and I second his opinion, because the machinery I work with tends to create some static, and the dust in my pocket may exacerbate the problem (?)
Anyway, he recommended that I plug the phone in and hold the power button for 2 minutes to drain the static. Voila! It seems to have worked.
Solved for the time being. Thanks everyone for your input.

This thread is awesome.
Also, I recommend leaving your phone on your desk/home/car when you work
Or maybe a full-body armor case or something.
Statics & electronics = bad idea. Even if you can drain it and it works, it's still hurting the components inside.

So, it's been a bit, but I just came back to this phone. I never did send it in to Moto, though it seemed to have died completely. It sat in the drawer for a couple of weeks, and now on a whim I plugged it into my computer, and it started up! I had never tried plugging it into a computer, just chargers...
BUT,
In the last 10 minutes it's been sitting here rebooting itself every 2 minutes... I guess I'll try wiping it again (It didn't do the trick last time), but this phone has serious problems.

security flaw on lockscreen

DISCLAIMER*** I DO NOT OWN A NEXUS 5, AND DO NOT FOLLOW IT HEAVILY THIS IS PURELY BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE TODAY AND MY YEARS OF USING ANDROID OS. I DO NOT USE IT DAILY AND ONLY USE IT EVERY NOW AND THEN FOR CALLS. MY INFORMATION MAY NOT BE ACCURATE AND PURELY BASED ON PREVIOUS USES OF DIFFERENT DEVICES FROM DIFFERENT BRANDS.
THIS MAY BE DISREGARDED OR/AND DELETED
Today my sister nexus 5 (aosp 5.1 "newest") was "stolen".
We spent the day looking all over the place for it and went back to a few stores we visited that day and asked the staff. But it was of no hope. No one has seen or heard of it, so we regarded it as stolen. So after awhile we went home we went to ADM (https://www.google.co.uk/android/devicemanager) and set up a lock and number to call as you would.
After a few hours my dad found it in his car :/ so yeah...
But that's just the bread of it. HERE is the butter:
1)The lock we set up was 100% not in place even tho ADM said it was "sent". AND the mobile data is ON, but this is just how ADM works and it doesn't check if the device receives it or not. Maybe google should add this feature.
BUT even after we got it back and connect to WIFI, the lock did NOT get put in place. Proving the phone does not check for any lock requests at screen unlock. But maybe because she already has a normal pincode in place and it couldn't over ride that :/
after that I took a interest in the security.
2)So i took a deeper look into the security and it flaw, and first off. EVEN locked I could access the status bar and turn on AIRPLANE MODE. This was without the password and I could turn on torch, wifi, mobile data ext off as well. The only thing I couldn't access was the "settings". But I had a great deal of control of the device's connectivity and from there a thief could make his way out without any calls or ANYTHING affecting him.
3)THIS was truly shocking. I'm not sure if this is by default or by accident. But by using the status bar "exploit" i was able to get into the users page and switch to guest mode. From there i was able to grant adb access and access the market. If this phone was rooted I guess you could install some apps to get rid of the lock screen or even install a custom recovery. But them i guess it's up to you to take the action.
As i said before. I do not use it. My sister does. But she does not root or mod, and only follows the AOSP path.
Some exploits may only work because of a few careless button presses. And may not even affect anyone at all if you don't spam the settings with random presses.
Thanks for listening to me and feel free to point out any mistakes i made and share if you could post if these "exploits" work for you. If someone already made a thread please delete this one. Thanks for listening

Actually the only serious thing is the guest mode option.. About the airplane mode, for a thief it would be much easier to simply turn the phone off.. Anyway I completely agree with you.. Google should take more seriously the security part.. It should even be impossible to turn off the phone without a code..

And make the back impossible to open so a thief can't pop out the battery.
Once a phone is out of your physical control, consider everything on it to be compromised, regardless of whatever security you have.

Please delete this. None of this is news or exploits. People have known and been disappointed by it from day 1 of Lollipop going live.

Well removing the battery of the n5 is not immediate.. If a thief want to resell it probably he won't do that until he's at home or wherever and if he couldn't turn it off you could track the position or at least erase your data..

You say Google should take security more seriously. Take that advice. Never assume a thief would act in a manner that accommodates you.

That's right.. Anyway I should try to make his life as complicated as possible ?

It should even be impossible to turn off the phone without a code..

with some aluminium fold will easily to block any signal, the phone will eventually turn off.
p.s. If I am the thief which stole a useless phone, I will just break it and throw away. I don't think any thief will say "hey, I can't unlock it, let's return to the owner"

PLEASE HELP

i need some help and i do not know where to go.i think my ex is in my phone. my phone will randomly shut off on its own. certain settings that i have turned off will turn back on by themselves. bank apps and social media apps will be signed out when i wake up in the morning. one time i found a video with my pictures and it was a video of me sleeping. video was all black so all you heard was me sleeping. deleted photos that has been deleted for quite some time re appear and there always pictures of me and him. my son also requested my data from facebook and there was a device listed that was name OnePlus which i have never heard of. Also i decided to grab an older phone of mine to use. i signed into snapchat account on my older phone and it did not log me out of note 8. both phones were active at the same time with the same account which i know should not be possible. i also get a ton of random texts from fake email address or numbers and the message is always some obscure message with a bunch of symbols and numbers. and they always come in right when i leave my house or when i am out and about. also every now and than i can be using my phone and right when im using it everything just stops. i cant access apps at all. i can open them but i have no network connectivity. even tho on the top of my phone it will say i have full bars and i have 5g working. and itll stay like that for sometimes 30 mins to an hour. what can i do? should i replash my firmware? to take out what ever letting him remotely access my phone? im so lost at this point. THANK YOU ALL IN ADVANCE!!

Lots of solutions...
One is to factory reset and start fresh with a new PIN.

what you can do is inform your family, friends, employer etc. that you have been hacked and it's possible they receive messages from you you actually have never sent in person. ask them to call you instead of texting.
besides that, I recommend digital detox. is your phone really that important you can't even leave the house without?
