It seems a bunch of Tasker commands are not working in Lollipop and I really need to get them working on a Nexus 6. It's a phone for a blind person and I need to be able do things like allow them to touch the screen anywhere to answer, wave their hand over the phone to answer, answer by voice command, etc... but that seems impossible on 5.0+

nexus 6 was released with lollipop. so, officially, no. i know for a fact that the nexus 6 was tested with kitkat, but those builds havent gotten out(code i mean).
Dang. Not good news. Is the only other phone that can use "Ok Google" with screen turned off and the phone not charging the Moto X?
I'm sure there are pre-5.0 roms for the Moto X so I might have to get rid of the Nexus and go that route. I hope the Verizon version isn't all locked down like most VZW phones.

Droid Turbo (verizon) or Moto Maxx (south america) are 4.4 devices, essentially the same as Nexus 6, just 0.8 inches smaller.

With an entirely different board, kernel and drivers. It is not going to be as simple as flashing a rom from them if the idea comes to mind.

It is.
All Verizon phones are very much locked down sans for the N6 or the occasional dev edition device.

Flashing stuff for Nexus 6 won't do any good if the intention is to stick with 4.4.
Also, just because the board is physically a different shape does not mean that it is *WIRED* particularly differently. It is mostly EXACTLY the same.

What does everyone think? 4" may be the sweet spot between big screen size and too big. I don't know how I feel about even less physical buttons though as I already think it is the stupidest thing ever to not have dedicated send/end, but that is just me.
Not while they've skinned Android and replaced some Google integration with Yahoo integration.
No led flash? Are you f*cking kidding me?
I like the S-AMOLED and the proper multi-touch screen. However, having used the N1, I feel that it's just about as large a smartphone as I'd like to have in my pocket.
Not having to jump through as many hoops to get it customized, rooted, unlocked, etc. is also a nice thing about being on the N1.
Why would I want that when I have an N1?

I've had a G1, and a N1, I'll wait until the next "Google" phone's out to upgrade, I think
If it gets rooted and with a stock rom i'm going for it. Samsung makes great hardware. The software sucks big time.

Yeah I'm with you I'll wait for the new Nexus One every phone on T-Mobile that's made by HTC and only has stock Android is the phone Google uses for the next year. Thanks to Froyo the Nexus One has been the best Android phone until at least August when the Droid X gets 2.2 and gets a speed boost. Also you know that the Galaxy S will not get to use the free tethering that people with the Nexus enjoy. So to the original question NOPE

If it is rooted why couldn't you use wireless tether? Wow I did not think everyone would be so against it. Its already rooted though I thought.

If I upgrade phones from my Nexus One its going to be for these features:
- Vanilla android
- 4.3' screen
- Can use the same $50/mo even more plus T-mobile voice + data
I'm more than happy to play the waiting game with my Nexus One until this phone comes out...
If the guys at Samsung weren't so cheap to cut corners and actually included an led flash I might have considered the GalaxyS... but I can't support such obvious penny pinching cost cutting by Samsung
I love its GPU power and the Super-AMOLED, but for me to go from the N1 I need :
dualcore
>WVGA
stock android
[email protected]
I don't expect that for another 6 months or so, so I'll be keeping my Nexus One until then
The Galaxy S is also plasticky and ugly

Looks like we might not get official ICS. Let's go CM9!
Further evidence that the D3 was released so they could use Droid 4(g)... so retarded. Thanks for the shaft, moto.

Because it is a list of current phones that will be upgraded. The D3 is a current phone that is not listed, which means it will most likely not be getting an upgrade. However, no one knows for sure
I'm not sure it indicates anything. The D3 isn't listed in the list below either where all of the other phones are.

This was my thought.. that top banner of text seems as more of a teaser for those who just purchased their bionic and razr to silence the people worried if their recently purchased phone is going to receive android 4.0.
The Droid 3 isn't listed on the page at all and obviously it exists.. so I don't think that upgrade page means a thing. I would assume those would just be the first to get it then other phones that are capable would have 4.0 implemented. Since the D3 is so similar, I doubt the bionic will receive 4.0 without the D3 being considered..
http://phandroid.com/2011/10/24/mot...-release-beginning-with-razr-bionic-and-xoom/
A few sites(check google) say that these lists are just motorola confirming which phones will get ics over the next few weels starting with the razr, bionic and xoom.

Has anyone noticed that only verizon moto phones are listed? That cannot be a complete list, what about the photon? The atrix 2? I highly doubt this is a complete list of devices that can be upgraded. This is just for hype, companies like to do this so people buy their phones for the upgrade. If this is the complete list, our beloved Droid 3 has booted ICS already so there is no need to worry.
I'm probably going to thoroughly ***** a verizon rep out. I'm not big on ICS to be honest but the fact that they dropped this, then like 10 other phones in the few months following is terrible business practicing. My phone shouldn't be obsolete in 2 weeks.
I may just drop Verizon and goto Sprint while it's still got unlimited data. Tho that would probably leave me with $600 in termination fees. Good thing I got credit growing from things bigger than Verizon?
Page obviously needs an update on all the new phones, looks like it's 6+ months out of date so it has no real relevant information for new phones at all.
We will more then likely get ICS.
-smc
That's technology. You don't wanna be outdated get an iPhone. With the overclocks, custom ROMs, Hash working on ICS, and everything, why wouldn't our phone keep up? I mean it's got the hardware to be current for a while minus 4G.
Haven't seen anyone mentioning it yet, so I've decided to post it here.

The DROID 4 is upon us whether we are ready for it or not. The first pictures of it popped up a few weeks ago followed by signs pointing to it arriving on December 8. We also got confirmation that training has started for some Verizon shops, along with this set of official specs. Who knew we would see it so soon?
The D4 will have a 4″ screen (LCD or AMOLED?), 1.2GHz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, DROID RAZR styling, 5-row slideout keyboard, 4G LTE, front camera for video chatting and an 8MP rear camera. This could be the DROID that many of you have been waiting for. The Stratosphere had LTE and a keyboard, but this phone has top of the line specs to go with them.
On a related note, thoughts on the tool needed to remove the back cover? It doesn’t have a removable battery, but the cover can be removed using that circular tool pictured above, so that you can insert a SIM and SD card.

This is what the droid 3 should have been in the first place...Instead of opting for one standout phone though, Motorola decided to make 2 behind the curve phones in the time span of two months. They should give Droid 3 owners some kind of upgrade deal or something, that's just crazy.
edit: Did they get rid of the lip? If so, now I'm really upset, I always hated that lip at the bottom.
I strongly agree with you. The Droid 4 seems like the phone I've been waiting for the whole time. I'm quite sure Moto released the D3 with less superior hardware solely as a marketing strategy.
Too bad the battery's no longer swappable (with the exception of removing some additional covers)
I just got the droid 3 after tons of problems with the D2G. I must say, for not having paid for the phone, I'd be willing to pay for this D4. BUT, not being able to install an extended battery is a major dis. Sure the 1785mAh that this has is bigger then the 1500 the we have...but its still smaller than the 1950 the extended has. Who care how fast your phone is if its dead...
Does anyone know what version of Android this thing runs?

Don't buy it. Realy the droid 4 six months after the droid 3. Then there will be thr droid 5 six month after that. That's why as soon as I can I'm never going to own a carrier phone again. Its all nexus for me. Motorola has disapointed me very much . People sign the patition pn the thread abouve this one.

You can only do that for 16gb but not 32 as of now
I know MotoMaker goes live for Verizon on Friday. Maybe T-Mobile sometime soon.
the pure version is the tmobile. it sounds like they are still out of the 32g. try a white face with 32gb option. and then go back to black. that was working a few days ago. to answer the question... there was no exclusive for at&t at all. the tmo/pure edition was available from the start and verizon is always the last to get their version in, it is cdma.
A little of topic but I wanted to pick up a screen protector today and Verizon said the phone doesn't exist, AT&T (my service provider) said they don't carry it. Best Buy was like "what?" and Radio Shack said they only have accessories for newer phones. I don't think there's an exclusion on it.

You could get 32 last week. They are sold out for now... must be too popular. As with the first-gen X, there is no T-mo specific model, jsust unlocked (why would you want anything else?). I'm holding out a few weeks - hopefully news of the new Nexus will give me another option.
still no luck as of today, I guess it's just out of stock for now.
Stopped by AT&T store today to check out the actual phone and they said they are not getting it in yet either. Wonder how long this thing get hold off from the market
The Verizon model goes on sale at motomaker tomorrow, so go hog wild!

As of today you can now order the Moto X (2014) Pure edition with 32Gb of storage.

So I feel like I've been doing my research, and reading plenty on the XDA forums (awesome resource BTW). But as usual I think my question hasn't been answered specifically. So here goes:
I've been using an Australian Moto X (2014 - XT1092 - ret.eu.all) for a while now, and I'd like to return to bone stock, vanilla android land as I was when I was running Nexus devices. The added Motorola stuff is ok - fancy lockscreen, camera, Moto Voice - but plain old everyday Android works better for me.
So I read the bulk of this thread and I understand Benjamin's advice, but before I pull the trigger I want to be certain. It seems like most people are doing this mod to get Lollipop. And to be honest, I'm not worried about using Lollipop or KitKat - I just want the various Motorola 'features' gone.
So - Will Ben's advice give me plain old vanilla android the way Google intended it? Thanks everyone! :fingers-crossed:
Aus - Not Carrier Locked

Incorrect.
The phone works differently than my Vanilla Android device, I know, because somedays I switch back to my (painfully slow) Nexus 4. The Motorola'ness is ingrained throughout, even changing simple things such as the Navigation Prompts in Google Maps (Moto X: "Turn left in 300 meters". Nexus 4: "Turn Left in 300 meters onto Charles Avenue".) Google now seems much less useful on my Moto X, it doesn't seem to be gleaning as much information from my habits as my Nexus was. There are lots of little things that just make the phone seem less functional than the stock Android is.
Someone prove me wrong, and save me the hassle of flashing! :good:

If you want none of moto's features, you jsut have to disable them, everything is exactly the same for me, google now, maps act the same as my nexus 5 ! The only difference I found was not having the google dialer, but you can flash it to have it working.
If you really want to get rid of all moto features, you can always flash custom Roms like CM.
But I really don't get the point of buying a moto if you don't want any moto features.
