Can anyone tell me if the air pressure sensor still work after the Lollipop 5.1 OTA?
Today I just found out all apps report that my phone doesn't have a air pressure sensor. I tried these apps on my Moto X Gen.1, they all work.
Did the OTA break it or it's my sensor failed?
This is the 2nd gen form, I've never heard our device has this sensor, are you sure, are you worked before?

Air pressure sensor (Barometer) has become standard on Android devices since Honeycomb.
The specs on GSM Arena shows there is barometer on Moto X 2014

Oh I got it now, I had never know most of the Android devices are equipped this sensor, so I just tried to installed a barometer app on my latest version of CM12.1, however it reports no sensor detected.
No sensor detected for me on 5.1 either. I never tried to use it before, though. So I don't know if it ever worked before 5.1 or not...

I don't have this device and am reading conflicting reports online. It doesn't help that their official site doesn't list any full specs. Can someone who owns a Moto X please confirm that it actually has a pressure and ambient temperature sensor?

I am also very curious about this, as I build pressureNET. I emailed Motorola recently to ask, they responded "At this time the full Moto X specifications has not been released." It seems to be a huge secret what sensors are on board. If anyone knows and has some real proof please tell us!
We have 9 sensors barometer and temp sensor are included, just ran a sensor test

I don't think that's an ambient thermometer, barometer works correcting but I promise you it's not 80 degrees in my room right now so most likely that's the chipset temp.
Ambient temperature sensor its not, although you would physically now if its hot or cold in your location, my temp sensor says it 89 degrees, oh well

In the the Android API there are two temperature sensors. One has been deprecated since ICS and replaced by "TYPE_AMBIENT_TEMPERATURE." In my Weather Station app I only use this new ambient temperature sensor... so I'm curious whether it actually works on the Moto X. If it doesn't it would show up as N/A in the app.

What do you guys think it'll have?
AMOLED point to active display type notifications, or rather screen based, notifications.
Don't those features rely on Motorola apps? If so, they will probably be absent from the Nexus 6.
The G+ guy who showed test photos of the Nexus 6 mentioned that there is something Similar to the Active Display the Moto X has, but is slightly different.
This is further backed up that he stated this is meant to replace notification LED's seeing that the N6 does not have one of these apparently.
No infrared sensors on the N6 either (according to spec anyway) which play a big part in the unique features of the Moto X

The OG X was accelerometer based, which was always fine for me.
The specs on Moto X list additional processors that the Nexus 6 doesn't have, so that points to some other areas of lacking functionality:
Natural Language Processor, Contextual Computing Processor

That's true, but it should have something that displays notifications. Also "Okay google" should work on nexus device w/ out screen on w/ out the speech procs. That's a qualcomm feature, like most of wear devices.

Moto G 2014 (XT1068) works totally with Google Cardboard?
I am waiting for my cardboard deliver then I will tell you it work or not.I thing everything should work but magnet doesnt work.
For me is almost unusable... :crying:
http: //youtu.be/mMzN6GIEtjs
My cardboard arrived and I am right magnet does not work
Magnet makes my phone screen locked ?
The magnet is in the wrong place, but if you get one of the newer cardboard kits (designed to be fully compatible with an iPhone as well), they have a touch button as well as the magnet.
The gyroscope is very bad in Lolipop, but Motorolla have fixed it in Marshmallow. Mine works brilliantly.
I've been having a ?Bug? where sometimes after playing a game with immersive support the top 1/10th of the touch screen stops working. Turning the screen off and on again makes it work again.
Another thing I notice is that comparing to the 2013 version, and using the same brand screen protector (pet) my Capacitive gloves just don't work, while in the 2013 version (and every other device I tried them on) they work perfectly
Is that a know bug or an hardware problem?
Touch gloves not working on moto g 2014
I was hoping someone would answer you, but either this isn't a problem for most people (they probably don't live up north like me) or nobody has an answer. So I'll at least confirm the touch glove thing is a problem for me too.
My touch gloves that work great on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus and Motorola Razr don't work at all on my Moto G 2014. At first I thought it was my screen protector, but when I removed it in preparation for replacing it with a different one, I found my gloves don't work on the native glass of my Moto G 2014. Can anyone answer, are they using a different technology that doesn't work with touch gloves, or only with certain types of touch gloves, and how could I know if gloves I'm ordering will work or not? Did you find an answer from your earlier searches, sudoetse?
Hi.
As in the subject, has anyone managed to use in any way the barometric sensor in this phone? This device is advertised as having one (besides Temperature sensor) but I can't find any app to detect it. I am struggling with Motorola support but they are giving me dumb/standard instructions. I saw here few threads with the same subject but they are dead for some time...
thanks

I think only the Moto X 2013 has the Barometer sensor, as I tried some different Barometer apps and they can't seem to find it, that as CPU-Z doesn't list it either...
Then gsmarena and other sites are wrong..
