The bamboo back, 32gb version I tried to pre-order had an Oct 1 ship date. Bummer. Maybe I'll have better luck with another configuration.

I get the urge to have it ASAP, but when you really think about it, just under a month is pretty good turnaround for a custom built phone, isn't it?

I was surprised while playing with MotoMaker that the said I could have mine by the 15th if I ordered that day.

Did you do any engraving or custom greeting?

I did the raspberry with pink accents for the wife with engraving and a custom greeting and it said it would be ready on the 15th.

I just laughed out loud at work when I saw that & now my co workers are looking at me wondering what the heck I am doing. Thanks!

Any idea on how we would wifi tether? I've never had a pure android phone.

That's a good question. I haven't really worried about that since I had my Galaxy Nexus. Then, I used foxfi, but looking at the compatible devices list on their play store page, it says that "Verizon Motorola phones will only work on Android 4.3 or below." Since this isn't TECHNICALLY a vzw phone, not sure whether it'd work or not.

I don't really have much use for tethering, although I was thinking about using an old (spare) phone as GPS for my Thanksgiving roadtrip so I could tether to my active phone and have it in my pocket or somewhere else handy. Not a dealbreaker for me either way, but something to keep in mind.

I'm sure it won't have the VZW hotspot app if you've got tethering as part of your plan and I don't think you can download that separately.

Maybe someone else can shine some light on the subject...?

 

[Mustang02]

That's what I'm wondering. Do I use foxfi or is there another app. Since this won't be a VZW phone.

Unlocked device you can just add build prop edit to allow tethering..

Edit the build.prop by adding the line:

net.tethering.noprovisioning=true

How do you control it then? Ie, turn it off and on without an app?

Oh. Of course. Haha! Too used to using foxfi or the "hotspot" app in recent memory. Forgot that foxfi takes you right to that settings menu as part of its workaround. Doh!

Sadly, no Band 12 support for TMobile yet:

"Matt (Forums Manager) said:
B12 support for T-Mobile has not yet been enabled. We expect to support B12 and Volte in an upcoming SW update."

VoLTE + B12 support for T-Mobile? . All Discussions (76) . Moto X Pure / Moto X Style . Forum . Motorola Owners' Forum

G4'ed it!
