    Root Update Causing CWM Flash to Fail

    It would appear that a recent OTA update has caused the recovery partition to be unable to hold a custom image even with the bootloader unlocked via moto. Is it just me having this issue, or can someone confirm this? BTW: I was able to gain root access via the MotoFail2Go exploit located...

    Interested in Photon Q but one question.

    I've read reviews that stated that you have to be connected to WIFi in order to send picture mail. Is that true and if so is there any way to bypass it? I spend a good amount of time on the road and having WiFi isn't easily accessible and there isn't 4G available in my area yet. For those...

    Good news for Photon Q owners or people thinking of buying it.

    https://forums.motorola.com/pages/00add97d6c Motorola says, the phone will get the Jellybean update although, no specific date has been set. Just thought I'd spread the word here. The S4 will love JB for sure. ;)

    UK Release?

    Hi, does anybody know if/when the Photon Q will be released in the UK? As with every decent phone that has a physical keyboard there's been nothing on the internet about it that I can find. I'm currently using an Xperia Pro, but it's getting a bit beaten up and sluggish!

    Google Wallet?

    I've had my Photon Q for just over a month. Infinitely better than my Epic 4G. Unfortunately, I was disappointed to see that, despite having NFC, this device is not currently supported by Google Wallet. I was really anxious to try this service out. Since it considers my device to be...

    Anyone have this phone?

    Is it just me or is it REALLY quiet here? I know it hasn't been out very long, but is this normal for a new phone? I want a phone with a physical keyboard and this seems to be the best one out right now. It is getting pretty good reviews on the web, but it makes me a little worried that it...

    Help Internal Storage Partition

    Okay, so even though this isn't my primary device and a family member uses it daily, I'd like to find out if anybody has noticed that there doesn't seem to be any partitioning on the Photon Q. It seems like all of the internal storage is merged together, however, it's still identified as...

    What's up...so, I finally got a chance to hook up the Photon Q with the Lapdock 100...I don't think it has "full" support, but it definitely does have mirroring.

    My impressions

    Picked it up today at the Sprint Store. Tried to get it at Best Buy, but that's a story for another day. Build: The build feels really nice. It's definitely "plasticky", but the slider mechanism feels pretty solid. No less than the Samsung Moment it's replacing, and that thing has lasted 2+...
