I was wondering if there was another way to use the smart unlock feature used in lollipop on kit kat... I tried the app smart unlock and for whatever reason it does not seem to work on my G3 and it also does not work with low level Bluetooth... I want to use my moto 360 as a trusted device...

I was given a Motorola Droid X from a co-worker to replace my original Motorola Droid and when I went to activate it on PagePlus their system told me the ESN isn't clear! That sucks but it was free so I thought I would just use it as a game and music player. It has been reset by my co-worker so it is at an activation screen and won't let me get past it, it is saying I must activate it. I hit activate, it calls some place and asks what the number is for the phone, I don't have one. How do I get rid of this so I can just use it as an android device and not a phone?
Ok found out I can click all corners to get out of that. Is there anyway to use this as a phone? If not what can I do to make it the best media device?
Google voice might be an option... But only when on WiFi since you won't have cell service

You mean the official flip shell isn't able to turn the screen off/on in CM 11/PA? I'm pretty sure it's kernel related and should be fairly simple for the dev the fix. Maybe try reporting it on the thread.

He means, the smart cover app (for covers without magnet to turn the screen on and off using proximity sensor) doesn´t work with the moto G and the moto g LTE
Because there is a restriction that prevents access to these sensors, actually it's sort of a bug and only the system user can access these.
Even things like Skype can't access them while you're incall.
Maybe as root you can control them, but the app needs to be using that method.
This one works very well on my Verizon XT1028 with a generic non-magnetic flip cover (stock 4.4.4, not rooted, bootloader locked):
Flip Cover Control by Cloudy Day Apps

Don't know if the problem may be specific to Paradoid or CM roms, however; but worth a try I guess.
I cannot give you a proper solution regarding your problem but I can tell you alternate way, which can be used to wake screen, there is a app named "Gravity Screen Pro - On/Off"
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.plexnor.gravityscreenoffpro
and it not only works on proximity sensor but you can use other sensor to work it and its not battery hungry, I also tested this on a phone without proximity sensor, works like a charm, free version of this app also available in market, hope it will resolve your issue

I'm not to familiar with writing tasked commands I know there was a plugin to use tasker to voice control the infrared remote on Samsung phones...anyone able to modify that plugin to work with The G3? It would be awesome to use commandr's tasker integration to be able to control the TV with my gwatch. I've been looking around and can't seem to find one that's already available.

You could reach out to the developer of that app and see if they are going to provide support for the G3. It never hurts to ask.....
Isn't "asking" for anything on XDA a sin?

I believe he means ask the developer of the app on the Play Store!

Asking a dev a support question is all good. Its asking for ETA's that are a no-no

Yes I just bought the app it worked awesome on my Samsung phones I would like it for my lg. But I have been doing some reading and it looks as if Sony and LG lock their infrared to the os or device somehow
Head's up, he added support for the G3 to this app! Now how do you use voice control with Tasker?
I have auto voice run a command via the Tasker plug in to turn the TV on and also switch the inputs
Since Verizon always changes a few things on our devices from the international/other us versions. Anyone come across any weird changes that they removed or added?
I had a S4 a while back and had to root to re-enable infinite scroll of the home screen and apps list. Is that still the case? Or is it an option again in the settings?
When charging using qi charging does the screen come on and make a tone when you get to 100%. It would do this in kit kat even under silent mode with the s4. But since its lollipop does it do it in priority mode?
I'm sure most of the Verizon bloat is able to be disabled.
Missing stock Samsung browser, smart manager app.
Also no free 100 gb of one drive storage. And yes I saw someone else post the screen does come on at 100% wireless charging and then it goes down and comes on agai. When back to full. Seems really annoying. Not sure if with everyone or just Verizon version though. Someguyposted about it in another thread

The 100gb free one drive storage is pretty annoying. Also what about Smart Share I think it's called? Where u can view all your cloud photos in one place. Can't seem to find that.

Does the verizon version have the setting where you can encrypt your phone along with some other stuff
I saw some setting about encrypting data so I'd say yes

Hey all just got a g5. After the s5's screen I got two and a half weeks ago went out. Also desperately waiting for root, but anyways getting off topic. I love the phone more than I liked my g3 (So I know a pretty good deal, or not lol). Here's my question. I bought a pair of the lg tone pros. I want to use voice commands to switch artists, as well as make calls when the phone is locked. So I used the google app to change artists. Only problem is after the phone is locked it will switch artists maybe twice before it stops(using voice commands). I unlock the phone,and it'll work again. I have ok google enabled from any screen as well as trusted voice. (I turn them off when I'm not listening to music/in the car.)
The apps I'm using.
Greenify: turned off aggressive doze (thought that might be the problem.)
Phonogragh: for music.
Google app: for voice commands.
Thanks for any help. This is really the 1st time I've used vc on android. Also if this is a google app specific promblem. Anyone have any better recommendations?
If you need anymore info just let me know. Thanks again.
