Unlock device - Call history screen? - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All.
Currently facing a problem which Moto can't seam to help with.
The device is stock out of the box and is approx 8 hours old.
Every time i press the power button then unlock the device, it brings up the speed dial screen. This is even if its on Facebook, Gmail, when i press the power off button, press it again, unlock the device it brings the speed dial screen up.
I'm sure i'm missing something simple, tried a cache reset but just keep getting a no command screen, and even hard reset the device.
Many thanks

Touch Pro keep restarting after TAEL ROM screen

Hi, I have been flashed TAEL ROM, radio last month. Everything running fine until early of this morning.
I have not do any changes recently.
suddenly this morning I could not turn on the phone from standby. So I soft reset it, right after soft reset, it keep on reboot itself after reach TAEL ROM screen, sometimes after Windows Mobile screen.
I tried to get into bootloader screen but the nothing happened.
the reset button seems like cannot function now.
I press and hold vol down button then press on Reset but phone have no respond at all...
Anyone have experienced this and solved it?
Thank you!!
Try pulling out the battery for a while. That fixes this problem sometimes.
I would try a hard reset, if things do not improve.
Had to do one yesterday and it took me some time to find out how it's done for this phone so if you're not familiar with it here it comes:
1) Turn off the phone (take out battery for 5 sec, then put it back in)
2) Hold volume DOWN button and press the centre of the circle (enter button)
3) While holding those 2 buttons, power up the phone (and keep pressing this combination until you enter into bootloeader)
4) When in bootloader (I normally keep the volume DOWN and Enter button pressed, until I see the message in bootloader saying that in order to hard reset I should press volume UP, or any other key to cancel).
Hope this helps, and remember that you'll loose everything (programs, contacts, SMS, etc) if you do this.
Good luck.
Remove your sim and sd card before doing the hard reset..right?
It's not necessarily REQUIRED, but it is recommended.

My son wishes to make one, but cant remember the code

You can factory reset the phone. I'm not sure, but I think if you keep guessing wrong, you'll get an option of logging in to the Google account associated with the phone, and.... well, actually, I don't know what happens then, since I've never done it or seen it.

Have to ask my son, if he has got that message about resetting.
Thanks
Gaasen
He hasent got that option.
Other options, to unlock ?
Gaasen
Try this:
Hardware key Reset:
1. Press the Power button to turn off the unit.
2. Press and hold down the Volume Down button located on the side of the device, then press the Power button and release it.
3. The phone should start with a menu present a list of options.
4. Use the Volume Down button and navigate to the Clear Storage option.
5. Then press on the Power button.
6. Select Yes to confirm your choice of selection.
Your Samsung Galaxy Xtreme S5690 will now reset back to factory default settings and all your data will be erased.
Hmmm...
The phone just start up, and wants the code
No list as you told.
Any other things to try out?
Gaasen
Make sure you hold down the Volume down button long enough. If still nothing, try other key combinations to get boot into factory recovery.
Cant get the "meny" to reset the phone.
If i push and holds the voloume down, press power for 2 sec, release power and still holding the voloume down, the phone loads until the screen lock appears.
I also tryed the other buttons, but just load until screen lock.
Is there any other way to reset the phone, with USB or so?

[Q] Swipe 3d life+ locked

I HAVE SWIPE 3D LIFE+ TABLET WHICH IS LOCKED NOW. i forgot my pattern lock and i didnt mention the gmail a/c also.....
i want to hard reset/ wipe data... i tried volume - power, volume + power both volume + power... but it didnt worked...
Swipe 3D Life plus tab -- hard reset
Hi Everyone,
I know how troublesome it is to unlock a Swipe 3D life plus tablet. Truly speaking . there is no way to unlock it other than hard resetting it. Even if your tablet is under warranty, the company through their service centers charge you around 250 bucks which is quite annoying.
After a lot of attempts, i figured out the way to hard reset it. It is exactly the same as you would hard reset a Google Nexus 7 tab.
So here is the procedure (follow carefully)
1) Switch off your tablet
2) Your tablet has only three buttons, one for power and a combined button for vol - and vol +.
3) Press and hold Power until the device powers on, then immediately press and hold Volume Down(while still pressing Power).
4) Within a few seconds, it would say: Encryption unsuccessful and you can find a menu on screen saying "Reset Tab".
5) Just select that "Reset Tab" option. it would show android logo (do nothing , just wait a couple of seconds)It would automatically shutdown and boot up again.
6) This time it will take a little longer to load.
7) Finally It will prompt you to the home screen.
Hope this helps !!!

I've tried a number of time to hard reset my 8x. however, it doesn't seem to want to. It always comes back to the same phone with all he data still intact. I'm trying to clear all data so I can sell the phone. Neither the reset button in "about" or the process described above seems to work. It does all the right things even has the gears spinning. Then it comes back to the settings as it was. OS version is 8.0.10532.166
I have the same problem.
My phone wont be reset
HTC ONE ULTIM8

rebooting s2 3g

I see a lot of you saying you've rebooted your watch. Can someone please tell me how that's done. Cuz i'm not seeing where that's possible.
I can't get any apps to install because i'm getting the gear2 not connected message. I've rebooted the phone but that didn't fix the problem.
THANK YOU.
ALSO, how do i check for and download the latest rom for the s2? If there's an update.
Press and hold the bottom right button
Assuming you wore the watch on your left hand, there are two buttons on the right side - towards the fingers of your left hand.
Press and hold the button on the bottom, and it will show you a menu to power off.
Repeat to start again.

From Tmobile support :
A master reset restores the original factory settings and may delete your personal data on the internal storage, such as downloads, ringtones, images, apps, contacts, and Visual Voicemail.
If the device menus are frozen or unresponsive, you can master reset using hardware keys. To perform a master reset, follow these steps:
Make sure that the Gear is powered off.
Press and hold the Power key until you see Galaxy Gear rebooting.
Release the Power key and then repeatedly press the Power key until you see the Reboot Select Mode screen.
Press the Power key to highlight the recovery option.
Long press the Power key (5-8 sec.) to select it. The device will reset and return to the factory initialization screen.
You can also directly reboot by simply holding the power/home button a bit longer -- about 10 seconds.
Press and hold, and when you see the "power menu" with the Power Off option, just keep holding the button until it appears to power off / go blank. Then, let go of the button. It will shortly display, "Rebooting...", and reboot.
Now, for those compsci folk out there, I don't know if this will cause any problems with caches/etc., leaving behind corrupt file system data structures or corrupting actual data, because it's not a proper shutdown of the linux kernel on the watch.
Yet, it is much simpler than the shutdown/restart method, and easier on the button (one press vs. two).
I'm not too worried, though, for a whole bunch of reasons about how linux is implemented on small and embedded devices like this with NV storage.
