Active display breathe function? - Moto X Q&A

I recently received my Moto x and i have set up active display. I know when I move the phone or pick it up the phone will breathe once showing the time. If I receive a call, email or text message the display will breathe to let me now there is a notification.
My question is, if the phone is just sitting on a desk is it supposed to breathe the time or does the screen just stay off completely until you have some type of notification (missed call, text or email)?

Stays off! Chris

I've noticed that if the table gets bumped it will blink the time at me. Not a big deal just wanted to let you know

I keep mine on a stand in front of me all day at work and will get the occasional screen on with either a bump of the table or even noise? Not sure if that is possible, but sometimes it seems a loud noise will fire it up...more than likely its the vibrations from the noise, but something to note.

[Q] How to turn off vibrate/sound notification when talking on the phone

So when I'm talking on the phone and a text message comes in, it vibrates and blasts me in my ear. I love the notifications, just not when I'm talking on the phone. I consistently have to pull the phone away from my ear when this happens. You don't realize how intense the vibration is until it's in your ear.
Is there a way to disable the notification (or at least mute it) while my face is up to the phone??
Subscribing. I also am not a fan of this behavior. Need the person to repeat what they just said because I pulled the phone away while phone was vibrating. Very unprofessional. For now, I'm just turning off vibrate option in messaging and email settings. This phone should be smarter (and less laggy) right out of the box.

Yeah it's definitely annoying, but I did the same and just turned off vibration for most alerts.
Well, to be fair, it was almost kinda worse on the iPhone 3GS that I just came from. Any calls you have come in on call waiting and stuff are heard right through the line to the other person on the phone with you... and if you are on the phone with another person that also has a 3gs (as was often the case with me), neither of you knew which was getting the incoming call unless you pulled the phone away to check. Both lines heard it plain and clear.

captivate notification issue, anyone?

Okay so I just noticed, when the phone is off and your received calls.. When you power it on, it doesn't tell you that you've missed a call or gotten a text.. Maybe bc im using tmobile?

I wouldn't expect it to tell you of a missed call unless they leave a voice mail and then you should get the notification about that but text messages should show up as normal when you switch the phone back on.
Oh that's dumb.. I usually got a message that says I missed calls on other phones.. Thanks though.

you should be getting a notification for a missed call on your notification bar. the symbol for it is a red check mark. Are you using a task killer? Task killers really screw up notifications on this phone. (even when used correctly)

Even when the phone is off? If the display is off yeah but I wouldn't expect it for missed calls when the phone is actually off.
if u mean screen off/sleep mode, u should get notifications. but if u say phone turned off completely, i won't expect it to show missed calls, unless the callers leaves some voicemail.
If u use ATK to auto kill tasks, make sure to exclude all system/phone related processes. That could be the culprit that auto clears ur notifications.
I have not had any phone that ever showed me missed calls when the phone was off (powered off). If it is asleep, then you should have a notification in the notification bar - the phone has to ring (audibly or visually) - so if the phone is out of service area, you won't get a missed call alert either.

Issues in vibracall

Hello guys!
have a razr that stopped vibratin.
vibrating sometimes yes and sometimes no.
Anyone have any suggestions?
thanks
In assuming that your notification settings in calls, messages, email etc. are all set to vibrate when notified, is it hit-and-miss that your phone vibrates with the speaker on or is it just when you are using it in one of the silent modes?
I only ask because when I first got my RAZR it took me a while to figure out that in the silent modes it will only vibrate when it is actually set to “Vibrate” mode itself and not when in “Mute”, so it’s just a thought that you are not sometimes setting it inadvertently to “Mute” by mistake.
As an aside I use an app called “Vibration Notifier” from the Play Store. Essentially if you miss a message, email, call etc. you can set it to vibrate a pre-determined number of times to alert you to missed notifications. So for example, you can set it to vibrate every minute (or any other number of minutes you specify) up to a specified number of times until you turn the screen on. You can also set the length of the vibration which I find a Godsend as I find the RAZR’s default vibration pretty weedy, and you can also customise it to notify you of any other apps you may have which have a notification feature.
Thanks for help, but my phone is in vibration status... Sometimes vibration work and a feel time before, dont work more

[Q] Notification LED and Ear detection when on call not available?

I dont really like active notifications since it seems to suck up a little more battery than i want. anyway regardless of battery drain or not, for someone who does not want active notifications, does this phone have any LED notifications when you have a message?
also, on my older android phone, when i am on call the phone screen will automatically turn on if i move the phone away from my ear and look at he screen (eg. to press tone keypad for automated machines or voicemail). The moto x doesnt do that, it stays off, is there a way to fix this?
thanks,

1. No this phone doesn't have an LED
2. It should...maybe your phone is defective?

Silent phone after disconnect?

Not sure if I am overcomplicating this, but here we go:
At work I've got my phone on vibrate, so I can still get notifications on the watch, but if the watch disconnects for whatever reason (mostly if I am too far away), the notification sound won't go off. In an ideal world I wouldn't want the phone to vibrate either. Is there any setting combination I can use, which let's me get notifications on the watch and keeps the phone silent when the watch disconnects?
