MikusR posted:Try uninstalling updates and clearing cache to Play Services first. Yo if you hit "uninstall updates" doesn't it take you back to the version that shipped with the phone? So wouldn't you be missing out on a ton of API updates that could cause your apps to freak out/misbehave? I could def. see an app only checking for the presence of a feature on first run, then just assuming you have it afterward. This sounds like a bad idea and I don't recommend it!!

It will re-update itself promptly anyway. I think it's more a way of "resetting" play services to see if there was some botched update or configuration that was causing problems.

Clearing the cache only makes Play Services work harder because, duh, it has to rebuild the cache and it will do that whether you want it to or not. It is not designed to be hosed with.

Yeah it looks like that... it's just a matter of whether the difference is worth my time, since they will charge me a $35 return fee, I'll have to setup my phone and do all the work I have been doing all over again, etc. edit: it looks like to get it for $399 you have to get it with a Republic Wireless sim.

LastInLine posted:It wouldn't work anyway as Play Services is updated whether you want it to or not and if an app needs an API in a version you don't have the app refuses to run, dumps you immediately to the Play Store Play Services page and updates immediately without any user intervention. Thanks for the info! Sounds like a dumb thing to do and suggest!

I'm not sure you can even roll back updates to Google Play Services anymore. At least, I have a 4.4.4 and a 5.1.0 device that grey out "Uninstall Updates".

I remembered that my new credit card has 0% APR for 12 months, so I can pay it off in installments as if I bought it on something like AT&T Next.

In terms of cases for the Moto X 2014 it sounded like the semi-official Hula cases aren't that great from reviews. Obviously there's Diztronic, but I'd kinda like a clear case which they don't seem to offer. The Supcase Unicorn Beetle sounds pretty good from reviews, fits well has good cut-outs etc anyone got one? http://www.amazon.com/SUPCASE-Unicorn-Motorola-Release-Premium/dp/B00NYXRRM4/

The Note 4, Droid Turbo and GS6 already do both and I'm pretty sure so will any phone worth a drat released this year. We don't have to choose one over the other.

Does anyone have any more info then that? Nope. I've been keeping a pretty good eye on that phone since February, but US release date is still very vague. Android Central just announced they're giving away 30 review models in a contest that ends 4/6 so I'd guess we'll be hearing a release date maybe mid-month. I have a trip where it'd be very useful to have that phone coming up on 4/25 so I'm betting the release date will be 4/27 or something.

Motorola found that 5.0.2 wasn't good enough after soak tests so they are scrapping the build and going straight to 5.1 on all of their devices. http://www.droid-life.com/2015/04/02/motorola-1st-gen-moto-x-moto-g-with-lte-and-moto-e-all-jumping-straight-to-android-5-1/ https://plus.google.com/+DavidSchuster/posts/cV4vDyyMmw2
