Dialling shuts down my screen.

I checked with Moto G support, and went with their "Software" fix. It checks your hardware, removes all installed apps, applies any android updates, and then re-installs all the apps. It took a while, but it gave me back almost everything I had as I had installed and arranged it, including nested icons on my home pages. Brilliant, because it eliminated all the stuff about dialling shutting the phone down.

The only apps it didn't re-install was a voip utility for sms from voip.ms . Voip.ms' s new free softphone app is a bug-free version of Groundwire, which I have used for years, which II swapped for VOIP.MS's free softphone. All my dialing problems have gone away, except one: I still need to enable speakerphone to hear and be heard, but the cellphone now stays on.

I am wondering if maybe I have a hardware problem. Any thoughts on how to check out the hardware without dis-assembling the phone?

Hmm well uninstalling, restarting the phone, and then reinstalling didn't work.
OK I guess I'll just contact the dev in the morning and see if they can offer any support here.

I did send their Support an email. Given that I'm not a paid subscriber, I'm not sure how quickly they'll get back to me, or what they will offer. We'll see.

If anyone has any other troubleshooting tips, I'm all ears.

Possible xfinity/comcast scam

It this day and age, it does seem more than a bit odd, to receive something and also receive a paper bill. I can't imagine any company trusting they would receive a payment after delivery. The gamble of online consuming falls on the buyer and not the seller. You buy... they ship. That doesn't explain exactly what is going on but the red flag has been raised. I would definitely be contacting the shipper immediately.

The Drone Thread

The display was the major problem with the DJI drone I owned. The cradle on the controller to connect most all modern phones was two short. Putting the phone in airplane mode to avoid an interruption and trying to see the phone display in full sunlight also proved to be a problem. I finally sold / basically gave away my drone. It was fun but not entertaining enough for me.

That's part of what's cool about the Antigravity setup. Those goggles would be great...at least once you got used to it.
