So I gave in and RMAed my phone because of the loose power button. Well kind of. I have to wait 2-3 weeks for the new one to be shipped.

It's not surprising. I'm sure a lot of people are sitting around :f5: like crazy hoping to get a phone.

Out of curiosity's sake, I loaded up the Moto X Developer page. Still $549. Is the sale not on yet? Or not at all?

I emailed Motorola last week to see if they would refund me $150 since I had just bought a Moto X and was within the return period. Why shouldn't I just return the one I bought and get a cheaper one today. They never responded. I guess they knew I wouldn't be able to get one anyway.



Speaking of Motorola, my fiance's Razr M seems to only like Motorola brand wall chargers (or it may have been a bad cable), and also it only charges in the car on a 2 amp car charger, and the 1 amp does not work. Is this a Razr M thing? Or are my methods flawed?

Okay, so since the last Google Now/Search update it seems that if I want to have my Reminders pop up a notification, I need to have notifications turned on in Now. That makes sense.

Except I can't turn off notifications for specific cards anymore. I don't want notifications for weather, and travel time, and all that poo poo. Just Reminders. Is there a way to set it up that way or is it "all or nothing" now?

I chatted with them last night via MotoCare on my phone and the agent essentially told me the only way to get the $399 price is to return a perfectly good phone (under the 14-day window) and order a new one. Seems ridiculous, but they aren't budging. If I can get a $399 Dev one today, that's what I'll do. $150 is $150 and Moto will have a perfectly good RMA'd phone on their hands. Strange.

If they tossed me a small coupon for accessories, I'd shut up about it. RMA it is I guess (if the website ever works). Just got the phone on Saturday.

Anyone know what "sensors.qcom" is, which some days takes up to 15 % of my battery power (especially if I don't use my phone much over the day) on my Nexus 5? I'd guess something to do with Qualcomm from the name, but googling doesn't bring up much either:



Are you running a live wallpaper? I've seen LWP's that use the gyroscope/compass pop that in the battery graph before.
