    What's your choice? Why? EDIT: mine goes in a case & holster so it probably doesn't matter

    Does .6 mm difference in thickness mean 2 different cases?

    Title says it all. The 2 models have different thicknesses. Does this mean 2 different cases? Or does .6mm not matter? Yes, I'm a bot anal.

    No resale value? At all?

    In preparation of my new Turbo I placed an ad on Craigslist for my Maxx for $200. Even if I overpriced it I thought I would at least get an offer. Anything. BUt not one reply. this is in Phoenix, 6th largest metro area in the U.S. Am I going to have to settle for the $80 that Gazelle is...

    Turbo Charger only useful at low battery levels?

    I saw a review that showed the Turbo charger bringing the battery on a Moto X from 8 or 11% up to 36% in 15 minutes. But if the battery is already at 50% or more, will the turbo charger still add another 8 hours in just 15 minutes or is it designed only to quick charge at low levels?

    Cases?

    I know it's not out yet, but I'm already dreading the pathetic choice of aftermarket cases and holsters, not to mention the sucky Verizon ones. Seidio doesn't even have plans yet on the website for the Moto X

    Difference between Moto and Droid?

    Love my Maxx. But as I wait for the Moto X+1 I was wondering if there's a basic difference between the Droid line and the Moto line? Do I care if this new upcoming phone is the new Moto or a new Droid?

    X+1 considered a successor?

    Everything I've read is calling the X+1 a successor to the X, not to the Droid Maxx. Is this because it won't have the our massive battery? Or maybe the form-factor? Or is the Maxx really that different than the X?

    White LED notification?

    Trying to help my sister out with her S3. She asked what a white LED notification light is for. Not sure if it's solid or blinking. Her battery is at 65% so I don't think it's low. She says she has no notifications when she swipes down, but it seems the LED is now no longer on. Couldn't...

    Audio out through the micro USB to my car usb input port?

    My car has a USB port in the console, but when I attach a charging cable from my Maxx to the USB port my radio simply says "Check Device" The phone does show it's charging. Is there a setting or separate cable I need, or does the micro-usb to usb not provide audio out. (yes, I know I can...

    What to look for when buying a used N10?

    If it were a Subaru I'd know. Looking to buy an N10 from Craigslist. With most electronics, when it works, it works. I want to make sure it's not some clone. Do I just look at the 'about phone' in the systems menu? What are the tip offs? Download some apps to make sure it works, anything...

    Help Battery discharge rate 1% / 11 minutes

    Per my battery widget my discharge rate is 1% per 10-11 minutes. It was 1% per 21 minutes 2 days ago. Nothing significant has changed since then. This happened a few days ago and doing the wipe cache partition seemed to correct it. Not this time. What gives?

    Noticably worse battery life after update.

    My battery app tells me time remaining as well as discharge rate. It used to be over 21+ hrs from full, and a discharge rate of 1% per 15 minutes. Now it's 15-16 hours from full and a discharge rate of 1% per 10 minutes. Any thoughts or observations on this?

    Found Seidio Holster fit for the Maxx

    Hoping the mods will keep this here. I know there's a case thread but I thought that this was deserving its own post. Found a compatible Seidio holster. The Dilex (previosly known as the Active) Holster for the S4 Active is a good fit for the Maxx with the Verizon Griffin Reveal Case. With...

    Question for anyone with any Seidio Active case/holster.

    I really want a Seidio spring holster for my Maxx but they're not making one right now. I already have a fairly thin silicone type case. I have found that on past phones the hostler designed for the Surface case just about fits the same phone with a thin silicone case. So I figure the...

    Letters too small on dial keypad

    I type in a lot of my contacts to dial them and I find the letters on the keypad way too small. Other than getting glasses, are there any settings to adjust this. I didn't see another dial pad in the play store.

    Maxx advantages over the S3?

    I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on this. The battery is obvious, but I'd be interested in a list of what you find better on the Maxx over the S3. - Obviously not the camera at this point. And what you think the S3 excels at. Thanks you you help.

    Nexus 5 interface?

    I haven't held a Nexus since the day the original came out. I returned it the next day. It just wasn't for me. I was used to UI's from HTC, Samsung, and others, and the 'pure' android' experience wasn't working for me. It just seemed like it required more steps on my part navigate around the...

    Qiestion about phones without a removable battery.

    I've always had android phones with removable batteries, Droid, Incredible, Thunderbolt, S3. At one time or another they have all frozen/locked/wouldn't boot, and the only thing that fixed it was a battery pull. There are some phones I'm considering (not iPhone) that do not have a removable...

    Looking for simple point and shoot game

    I'm looking for a simple point and shoot game, kind of like angry birds. Not looking to beat a clock, find hidden power ups, or deep maze strategy. Just something simple, maybe a little thought or logic - but it doesn't have to. Angry birds is a good example where you kind of have to figure...
