Moto X Pure :: 6.0 Marshmallow - Phone Keeps Power Cycling And Optimizing Apps
Dec 10, 2015
Got the Marshmallow update this morning, phones been good for about 14 hours and now all of a sudden while updating apps the phone re-started and has been re-starting ever since. It goes through boot-up screens to the "hand stitched" screen and then shows me a small message indicating it is optimizing 1 of 27 apps like it is doing an upgrade, it will sit on that for a few seconds and then the screen just goes black. After a couple minutes the process starts over again all by itself. It has been sitting here on my desk doing this for about 45 minutes now. Looks like I was able to experience Marshmallow for about a day, going to have to head back to the Nexus 6 (with no Marshmallow yet) and get a hold of Moto.

Inside Marshmallow: What is Doze, how do I use it and what does it do? | Android Central
Reminder: Doze basically sips power when idle. It will have no affect on mythical SOT statistics.
If you have a desk job, you may want to just leave your phone on your desk rather than in your pocket.

I recently upgraded to marshmallow and so far it's not going well. Mainly with access to my SD card and external HD. With lollipop I usually use ES File Explorer, no problems transferring media to and from SD card or external. With mm it doesn't allow 3rd party app to access any storage and forces you to use OS. How to go back to lollipop?

Meed getting the following video played fluently without it being stuck after few seconds while the sound is still playing? Make sure you set this video quality to 1440p.
There was no such problem with this video in Lollipop, apparently. Any chance factory reset will fix that?

You can enable the battery percentage with the System UI tuner.
Pull down your quick settings — either swipe down on the notifications then swipe again, or use a two-finger swipe. In the top right, you'll see the gear icon. Tapping it is a shortcut to your settings, but tapping and holding it for a few seconds will open a hidden menu in settings.
Long press that gear until you see it spin, then keep holding until you get a pop-up toast message telling you "Congrats! System UI Tuner has been added to Settings."
Now go into the settings, scroll down, and you'll see the new menu item listed. When you open it for the first time, you'll get a warning that these features are experimental and may break things, and may disappear in the future. If you're good with that, tap on "GOT IT" at the bottom and proceed.
Once System UI Tuner is enabled, go to Settings > System UI Tuner > and toggle "Show embedded battery percentage" on.

Alert sounds seem to be softer under Marshmallow? I feel like before I updated that the same exact sounds were very loud if I had the alert volume turned all the way up, but now not so much. I would think it's my custom sounds that I have for texting and email arriving, except the factory default alerts are also very soft now too. It's certainly not the speakers themselves, because if I play music, it's blazing loud.

One of the reasons the speakers sounded good was the global settings for sound environments and EQ for headphone jack and speakers. Makes no sense for an update that makes the sound less on this device. PowerAmp has EQ settings, but this does not work for other apps or videos. Not having the global settings is a negative.
The settings for some reason are now located in the Play Music app. It is the same settings and appears to still be global. If it were linked to the Play Music app, I should not be able to mess with settings when the Play Music app is disabled, but I can. I created a shortcut to the Audio Effects with QuickShortcut (handy app!).
Audio Effects are accessible with the QuickShortcut app, so no need for the Play Music app.

Wondering if marshmallow deleted the adjustment for audio effects. Only had my MXP since this morning but was looking for this feature that was showing up on a pre marshmallow MXP. Not there.

After MM update I decided to go for it and format SD card as internal storage. I received a message that my card was too slow and I should consider a better one before I moved apps to it.
I thought I got a high quality card, San Disk Extreme - link below w/ description - so I'm confused.

Installed the OTA update earlier and now I have a speaker volume problem. The volume level is turned up but the sound fades away after a couple seconds. On a video if I paused it and then hit play again the volume would go back up and then fade. Navigation did this each time a direction was given. Bluetooth speaker and wired headphones did not have the problem.

I have a Moto X Pure edition running Marshmallow. Google Contacts app does not show consolidated contacts from multiple accounts. I have added accounts such as Messenger, Whatsapp, Exchange, Gmail and Skype. However, the Contacts app only lists contact from Gmail and Skype. Contacts from all of the other accounts are not listed. If I open up the Outlook app (which is the Exchange account), I have all my contacts there. If I open up Messenger, I have the contacts there. But the Google Contacts app is not pulling from all these for some reason when I choose "All Contacts" or even pulling from Messenger when I choose " Messenger" only.

I bought a 64 GB SD card and adopted it as internal storage. No issues with it except that when I connect the phone to my laptop via USB, only the Internal storage folder with 9.5 GB of free memory(I bought a 16 GB phone) shows up. The SD card memory does not show up so I cannot see the new folders which I created in it using my phone file manager. If I format the card as portable storage, will I able to transfer app data of apps like Facebook to the SD card as I was able to do in Lollipop?

What happened: (Moto X Pure, just purchased new from Moto)
Came with Android 5, and I have upgraded it to Android 6 with the update straight from Moto. Been on Android 6 since the first day of use, about a week ago. Then today ...
1. Left phone on (Moto OEM) charger overnight, was at about 23% to begin with.
2. 7am Alarm went off (one I had set).
3. I silenced the alarm.
4. Unplugged from charger.
5. Phone would not work at all. No display. Could not get it to power on or the screen to come on (if it was powered on). Depressed the power button. Held it in, etc and so on. Nothing worked.
6. Plugged it back into the OEM charger and it came on and booted up.
7. After starting up it showed a 99% charge level.
8. Working fine now.

We've upgraded successfully our two US Moto X Pure Edition devices to Marshmallow yesterday. After upgrade completed, the numbers of calling contact are not being recognized anymore, although these contact exists and saved in android's Contact app, and backed up in Gmail accounts. Also, all incoming and outgoing calls in the call log are not recognized, although they were recognized before the upgrade.
This is very critical for us, since one of the phones is used as a business phone and it's crucial for us to know who's calling.

Any way to delete ALL the apps and web pages that show when you click the recent apps button (the little square icon) in one fell swoop? I've got hundreds of pages there when I touch it and trying to X them out one by one is taking a long time. Even if they're not somehow slowing down the system, I'm not particularly thrilled with anyone being able to see the content. It actually shows the body of emails you've read or written, texts, Facebook comments, etc.

I updated my Moto X this morning and I can't get the phone to go into recovery mode so I can clear the cache. Every time I select the recovery option following the standard procedure it just shuts down. It never did that on lollipop...

The volume on the earpiece does not go up quite enough? Maybe it's my old ears. We know the speaker is capable of it, but in a noisy environment, I find myself tapping the volume-up, even though I know I'm at the top already.

Since 5.0.1 my phone has been rebooting randomly, numerous times throughout the day. I just downloaded 5.1 (hoping that it would fix the issue) and it still reboots but now every so often after it reboots, it will say "Android is Starting... Optimizing app # of #.

Occasionally when using my device, it will freeze for a brief moment and the running apps window will pop up by itself. It will then start cycling through the running apps list (I use the card view), and it will randomly open one of the applications, and then sometimes repeat this process a couple of times in quick succession before I can regain control of the screen. The whole event will usually last about 3 seconds, but as you can imagine it is becoming quite annoying. I would say that it happens about every 3 days or so.

So a few days ago my Moto X Pure rebooted on it's own in the middle of the night, which woke me up a 3AM due to the bright white Moto X splash screen, and I though it was a random one of thing but the yesterday it did it again in the middle of the night and now it has done it 3 times so far today. I'm backing everything up now so I can do a master reset in a bit.
I removed the 2 apps I have installed since then, there are no memory leaks as far as I can see, and the phone otherwise works just like it did when I got it.I'd prefer not to have to do an advanced exchange with Moto but I will if need be, especially since there likely isn't very many 'Like New' Moto X's yet in my exact configuration and I'll probably end up with another new one.

So, even before i buy the phone, one of the highlights everyone make is:
"You can double-chop to turn the flash on or off. But if you activate the flashlight this way and set the phone face-down, the flashlight will almost immediately turn itself off."
Sounds awesome, so i tried it, double-chop works fine, but the flashlight dont turn itsel off when i put the phone face-down, and i waited a long time hoping the sensors have a delay, i tested in many surfaces and all the same.
It doens't seems to have a setting about this as the phone do it automatically..
So, that's it, i will have to accept it will never work on my phone? I already factory reset the phone after the update to MM, and a few days later.
