Moto X Pure Edition: Why is there a white spot on my screen?

Wed, 06 Sep 2023 01:22:31 -0700

So my father sat repeatedly on purpose on my phone, after that I noticed a white spot on the screen. It's nothing, barely visibile, but every time I see it I feel terrible. Is the screen broken or is it something else?

White spot-> those pixel are always white, on a white screen, those are noticeable because are even whiter.

Here's some photos:

Moto X Pure Edition: Where to buy battery

Mon, 22 Nov 2021 09:09:25 -0700

I went through the whole process of removing my Moto X Pure XT1575 battery. Only to find out that the FX30 battery for it is out of stock here on ifixit. I see many of them on ebay, amazon and newegg. Are any of those any good, or where can I buy a quality battery?

Moto X Pure Edition: Half my screen malfunctions from time to time

Sat, 08 Aug 2020 16:27:30 -0700

The left half of my screen (it’s literally the left half, the vertical division is perfect) malfunctions from time to time. It works fine but after some use, it starts suddenly showing gray noise (gray/black/white dots) and after a while turns back to normal.

Sometimes instead of showing noise, it distorts the image, and again, after a while turns back to normal.

The touch works fine, and the right half of the screen works perfectly too.

I have disassembled the phone to check if there’s a loose wire connection but I haven’t found anything.

Any other ideas?

Thanks in advance!

I replaced the battery in my Moto X and now it shows charging the battery but won't turn on.

I plug it into a charger and it comes up showing the charging screen. But doesn't turn on. Any idea why?

It is almost like the power switch isn't working even though I didn't touch the switches.

Fri, 06 Sep 2019 17:36:16 -0700

I went through all of the troubleshooting with my phone service provider, they said it must be something with the device itself, and to contact Motorola. When I contacted Motorola they just said that my warranty was expired and I have to go to third-party repair. What could be wrong with my device? Is there anything I can try before taking it to be repaired? Thank you

Moto X Pure Edition: How to fix loose volume cable after removing back cover?

Fri, 30 Aug 2019 16:08:39 -0700

I replaced the battery in my Moto X Pure Edition phone, but when I was removing the back cover the cable for the volume control came loose. How can I fix that? I don’t have any way to take pictures without my phone right now, but in the guide for replacing the battery step 20 shows exactly what I’m asking about. The little S-shaped cable came loose right where the point of the tool is pointing at. Can I fix that or did I just break my phone?

Thanks for any help.

I dropped my phone and the glass has broken. What is the average cost to replace the broken glass? Does it pay to have it repaired or trade in for a new comparable phone. If it pays to get it repaired, can you provide a convenient location in my zip code (90035). Tx. Peter

Moto X Pure Edition: Is it worth pursuing repairing my phone?

Thu, 04 Jul 2019 06:47:36 -0700

I accidentally drowned my phone (Moto X Pure Edition) several days ago on a kayaking trip. As soon as I could, I turned it off and put it in a bag with a silica gel packet I had with me. On the way home, it accidentally got turned on in my pocket, but the screen had stopped working by that point and I had no means of doing a full shut down, since holding the power button just seems to restart it. I transferred it to a bag with perhaps a cup of silica gel desiccant and left it for several days.

At present, the screen still does not work, but the motion controls for turning on the flashlight and the camera do work. I’ve also caught it activating alarms a few times. It seems that it will charge the battery (since when I initially tried it, nothing happened at all, but it started doing a little bit after leaving it on the charger), but the computer does not register a device being plugged into it if I connect it by USB.

Does this sound like enough is working that it would be worth trying to repair it, or should I just go ahead and seek out a new phone? Thankfully, I’ve been pretty good about transferring pictures to my computer, so the only things I would seriously lose are the pictures from that trip.

Thanks!
