Motorola's solution for back cracking with metal bands - picture

Hi,
I came across this interesting picture, where you can clearly see that the metal bands from Motorola have a plastic piece/adapter that fits inside the watch. Even the larger 23mm bands have this piece from what I can see, their first part is in fact narrower than 23mm and fits inside this adapter.

Let's hope they release the adapter separately so we aren't forced to buy the $80 band if we want a metal one

After looking at multiple photos, none are detailed enough, but it looks like the plastic adapter is actually a spacer since the metal band is much smaller where it connects with the watch itself...disappointing, in order to use this spacer, the leather bands would have to be changed to fit at the initial connections on the watch...narrow them down and then widen them out like the metal band.

is it just me or does the watch on the right look like its got some issues with the back?

Yes, it looks like hairline cracks are creeping around from the adapters...might be a reason there are no high detailed photos on the web.

Here's a High res of the watches. You can clearly see the spacer if you zoom in.

i've seen the spacer in the press release. here's the thing, unless there's some magic trickery holding that spacer in place, it's still putting pressure on the back. the spacer would basically occupy the entire space which means the back would effectively hold it in (or rather stable, since the pin is holding it in place).
i take it back. the spacer is formed with a lip "resting" against the back part. seems like they're using it as a buffer/spacer.

Waterproof Cases for Xperia Z3 Compact- Seriously!

First, I'm not a current owner of a Z3C but I'm planning to buy it in 3 months because of it's awesome camera, battery and Hi-res audio support
I just started this thread because, since the poor Sony costumer service , and my paranoia about the "hidrofobic coating" getting messed up with salty/chlorine water of the Z3C. I found this:
I'm new so i can't post links but just go to seashell.hk and look in the products tab for the iPhone 5 case housing

Ok ok i Know it's for iPhone 5/5S/5C BUT! when you check what comes in the package, you found this beauty: IMG (2)
So, as you can see comes with a cushions set, so you can customize the position of the phone into the case, and as this image indicates:
It's a huge difference in the camera position, a plus for this case it's that you can download the camera app to properly use the Seashell Case, based on the theory of align the Z3C on the case, I guess the physical buttons will not fit the Seashell´s camera app buttons
Sounds funny why I started the thread, but I´ve seen a lot of users complaining about how their phones died after two or three submersions on sea water, or in the other hand people who it's happy because never have failed after shooting underwater, and of course I don't want to be the unlucky one...
Finally I found this case:
[/ATTACH]
Seems practical since it's a standard case almost look as a daily use case, but I found a problem, and it's that the case have a blurry section of the plastic, and as it's not a firmly shaped plastic that covers the cameraa as the first case I presented you I guess you can't take nice shoots underwater

Just wash it with freshwater once you get out of the pool/sea.
Nothing to worry about, and most of all, nothing worth spending money in.

AFAIK the Z series does not use hydrophobic coating for water proofing, but instead uses a plain old waterproof cabinet where the water never gets to the sensitive parts in te first place. Where have you seen that it used hydrophobic coatings?

They might use them for the speaker, mic, headphone jack and other "holes" that are necessary in the case.

I am wondering about the material, as the original Sony sticks all the possible dust and dirt...

I have the white band and it doesn't collect dust as the black one. Maybe because of the striped texture on the band. I prefer the white!

I bought lime version from ebay...supercool
Sent from my C6903 using XDA Free mobile app

I got mine right when they announced it was in the Google Play Store, around a month and a half ago. Use it all the time when I go out on my runs and then switch to the black one when I am not running. It is the same material (silicone) as the black one, but the texture seems smoother so it does not attract dust/lint or dirt. I sweat a lot and it's held up very well, with no staining or markings. Love the fact that its practically infinitely adjustable as well, and adjusting the size can be done so quickly and easily.

anyone know where I could purchase the metal band? I've searched everywhere and can't find it :\

An anti-static spray will prevent any dust/lint from sticking to your silicone watch band. I use the 303 Aerospace Protectant (available at O'Reilly Autoparts or on the web). Just remove the watch from the band, spray the band thoroughly, and then wipe dry with a towel.

I think we need to make progress, maybe the smart watch with traditional design is a good thing.

Are they rootable?

I have bought this phone but I could not find anywhere the root procedure. When will it be available?
It would be enough to find the TWRP recovery or to bypass the signature check when flashing the supersu.
I found the TWRP of doogee S60 and I wonder if it is compatible with S61

Hi,
I bought this phone 2 months ago but is now dead ( just a black screen and does not turn on). I tried with the SP tools to get the phone started but I got an error:
STATUS_FORMAT_EXCEPTION
I download the latest from the doogee site and uses sp_tools v5.2208. Any help is very much appreciated.
