Boight New Moto X. Having Some Doubts. - Moto X Q&A

About 2 weeks ago bought a Moto X XT1060 listed as "new" from a local ad. Box came sealed in a plastic wrapping but no sticker seal or the sliding cover on the box. All accessories included and new. I hadn't bothered noticing this at first until recently, there's only one small sticker in the side which only has a model number and IMEI number mentioned in it. I've seen the previous box back when I had purchased the all white and that one had complete details on it including the serial number and such. Moreover, In the literatures that came in the box it mentions to contact ATT carrier for support which is strange considering its a Verizon branded phone, even had a Verizon sim card already inserted. Also when I checked the IMEI on IMEI.org it stated that its a Lenovo flip phone lol.
As for the device it looked brand new with the stock screen protector (that has a white tab on the corner) and preloaded with Android 4.2. So far I haven't had any issues with the device but I was interested in purchasing a second for my dad and I hate the idea that I'm getting ripped off with a refurb stated as new.
I was hoping someone can help me with identifying physical dead give aways for a refurbished device.
I've uploaded photos of the box if that helps.

I would like to tell you now that I am in no way affiliated with DealExtreme.
I was looking for a cheap case ( Note that I said case.....not a pouch or a sleeve ) for my galaxy tab....I came across this.

8 Bucks and free shipping? Yes please! I ordered one up and will do a youtube review when I get it.
Thought that I would share this for anyone else that is looking for a case that does not cost a lot and will do the job.
Enjoy!
i bought one of these at a cellphone store for cheap, like 5$. Terrible quality though, you get what you pay for. Oh and when i pulled my tab out i got a black stain on the white back panel, so be careful. IMO, cancel the order and find something else. Your tab deserves better.
Meh.....quality means nothing to me for cases as long as they do what it is meant to do. As for my Tab.....I do not know how your Tab is white but mine has a black carbon fiber design on the back.
The international and I think Sprint (?) tabs have a white back. You can see the international ones in the latest Samsung tab TV ads. I asked our Samsung rep about them last time I saw him. He told me they were the internationals, FYI.
The leather case looked not very well,But it's cheap.

[Q] Xiaomi PowerBank REAL or FAKE?

Hi, I wanna ask if my PB is original. I already asked in miui forum but didn't get satisfied answer, so i decided to ask you guys
My PB has a some fake outside look indications, like all beige usb port, full white mi logo, and dark text on bottom. But I'm still confused whether it's real or fake because it has short circuit protection, led will turn off if I hold power button when charging, and can charge the phone while it connected to power adapter. (also the usb cable comes in clean, well built plastic finish, and doesn't has mi or usb logo on it, & box package is made of plastic coated cardboard & has security label & unique code, some said the fake one code also granted as original or the codes are legit??)

I would say yours is fake.
I visited that thread several times before i posted here. This was my thoughts, but somehow my security geniune key was verified as an original. Also few peoples have the exact PB condition as mine, two of them opened the case and have LG battery in it.

Where can you actually buy this in the US?

The play store is out of stock. AT&T claims they have them but if you order they will cancel it because it's not actually in stock. I can't find anywhere to get it for $249.
Call a corporate at&t store. They may have one in stock
Tried that too. Went to one that the LG site said had it in stock, but they didn't actually have any. They checked online stock via their little ipads and couldn't find any either. Doesn't appear these are available anywhere.
Best buy and they will price match Google store mine should be here tomorrow.
I bought my at AT&T but I made sure the store I went had it in stock. When I walked in asking about it, they told me they didn't have no such LG watch except the LG G and showed me the moto360 instead . So I took out my phone and look it up on their website again and showed sales person and they came back with the LG GWR telling me they had confused it with the moto360
I got mine from Cowboom.com. Was way cheaper and despite saying it's a floor demo mine came brand new. You can also search for coupon codes to save even more. Got mine for for around 185 after tax shipped.
Yea I'm tempted by Cowboom, but all the models in stock say "Fair" or "Satisfactory" What did yours say for the condition? Seems like a crapshoot.
EDIT: Well I took a chance at Cowboom. I guess I can return it if it isn't in good condition.
Got mine on Swappa for $240 with the plastic still on it and all the peripherals. dont think it had even been paired either cause it still hadn't been updated. It also came with a metal band

Spen reveals dead spot on screen

I've attached a photo. Simply opened SNote and scribbled to show the area not responding to the Spen. At first I thought possibly a design flaw in my Tempered Glass Screen protector however I ripped it off just now to confirm it is not. Because of a unrelated issue with my wifi Verizon has replaced my phone once within the 14 day window.
I had this problem on my first Note 5 but didn't think twice about it because I was getting a replacement however now I'm seeing the same issue on my second one. Is anyone else experience the same issue?

Holy Cow.. Looks like I should have done a little more Google.. Looks like if you have a case with a magnet.. In which this case I do : http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B011WD7WMM?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00 it can wreak havoc with the Spen. Well now I have another case that is useless I guess.
magnets around electronics are never good

I have the platinum (best buy) case with a kickstand and it doesn't do this to me.
The company refunded me and said they were aware of the issue and have made a revised version. However the revised version still uses a magnet of which now I have no interest in my phone near magnets now.

Yes I'm having the same experience just realized it the other day. AT&T did it diagnostic they reveal that was a hardware problem
Just figured this out
Delete Facebook Messenger. Problem solved in both my phone and my brother's phone.

Missing HSPA/LTE bands on 5803?

With the recent official Lineage build for Z3C, I imported a cheap 5803 from Hong Kong to play around with. Installed Lineage, and noticed I was only getting an Edge connection on T-Mobile. Re-installed a "stock" ROM via Flashtool/Xperifirm, and the problem persisted. I've had two 5803's in the past, with the same carrier, and had no problems with the data connection. Going into the "Configuration" service menu, I looked at the available bands, and it seems like lots are missing (basing my expectations on FrequencyCheck). Am I confused, or is there something wrong/different with this phone?

Service Info > Model Info shows D5803?
That's the confusing thing, the settings do show model D5803. After searching the forums more, I found another thread from a user that has a similar problem: https://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/help/d6603-brand-device-basebands-missing-t3316118 -- phone flashed with a different model firmware. I guess the person I bought from was dodgy.
The only thing I can think of is:
in the compartment where the SIM card is, there is a white plastic slip that you can pull out. It will have the model number on it. Mine specifically says "Model: D5803". You have to pull the strip almost all the way out to read it.
I recommend using a pin to pull it out. There's a little hole/slit that you can poke the pin through. Do it slowly and avoid pulling the slip all the way out, as I suspect it would be difficult to slide back in if you pull it out too far.
