Verizon Moto E4 - Alternatives for Slide to Answer for 91 year old - Moto E4 Questions & Answers

Hi,
I have a 91 year old friend who is trying to use the Moto E4. This is her first smartphone and she is doing surprisingly well, all things considered.
She has difficulty remembering swiping left or right to answer/reject calls..
Is there a a setting, app or hack to change the behavior to something simple? Maybe a big Green Answer Button and a big Red Reject Button?
I'm most likely not going to be allowed to root/ROM this phone, so would prefer solutions which don't require that.
Thanks much!
Mark

TALK and END Button

Hello,
This is my first post so with this post, I would like to say: "Hello Every Body "!!!
...so my question is he following (I know that it is so stupid : Sorry...):
Does the TALK and END Button have a green and a red illumination or not?
Thanks
PS: I ask it because one month ago I bought my qtek s200, and I think that a phone without LEDs under TALK and END buttons is so strange .
Yes, the buttons should have LEDs under them, though they are not very strong and should only be visible in darkness.
Since to my knowledge there is no settings to disable them I would recommend using the warranty to get them fixed.
OK, Thank you levenum...

"Fun Lights" program? (Flash softkeys on call)

So, I'm not sure how many people are familiar with a hacked Motorola phone feature called "fun lights" (or club lights), in which the phone picks up music being played and flashes its lights to the beat, as seen here with a Motorola KRZR http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LS32vxWQC1U . Can this be done with our phones? I know the Tilt has a good number of lights to use. The indicator lights on the headset speaker and the soft key lights would be prime blinking lights. This feature would also be cool to do when someone calls you, and you're in the dark, your phone's buttons will start blinking and flashing.
So, developers and people who are smarter than I am, can this be done?
hehe loved that feature on moto phones. ahh... the good old motorola modding days when i moded my motorola v635 and the razr v3s someone should be able to do it.
Yeah, they're really cool. I'm not sure how useful it is, but it's certainly quite a novelty feature.
BUMP =D
i like lights...
Haha, everyone likes lights!
This may be similar to what you are talking about? Scroll to the bottom then scroll up 5 topics. Wouldn't be to the beat though.
Well, the notification LED is different than the softkey backlights. This will be cool to do when you receive a call as well as to music.
looks like i'm not the only one who remembers good ole' seem editing!
Either way, has anyone come up with a program that does something similar?
BUMP! This would be hella cool! The SE and Moto phones so why not the WM phones
I'm hoping once this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=406820 gets more developed, we'll be able to assign entertaining videos. It could make things more interesting.

[Q] How to activate 4 finger touch for defy?

Hello folks,
does anybody know how to activate the 4 finger touch for our defy like on the droid and milestone? The defy is supporting this i think because the panels are similar to droid and co. Allready ive changed the multitouch value on build.prop with no affects. Thank you guys
push
Nobody here who have a solution for this ?
no idea...
Call me stupid..
But, what on earth are you doing with 4 fingers on the screen at once
Just off the top of my head it can be used for running emulators. The other day I was trying to play super mario all stars (SMB3) and couldn't run and then jump while holding the sprint button because I was already holding the control pad to move, the sprint button to gain speed to fly. The jump button wouldn't register.
I hadn't given that any thought.
My biggest thought was just trying to imagine what kind of gestures someone would be making with 4 fingers on a screen.

[Q] how to disable part of screen

Hi there,
first i am sorry if i am creating this thread on wrong place, i am new on the forum.
Problem i have started when i dropped my N4. I have Ringke Fusion case and it did good job - no cracks no broken screen - everything is at perfect shape...
But, my 3 bottom soft keys are going mad right now. It is like somebody (ghost) is constantly pressing all three of them Then, i figured out that not the buttons are problem but that part of the screen. While it looks OK (colors and everything) touch is not working. Sometimes it does but only if you hold your finger long enough. All other time it is like it has mind on its own. So problem is that lower part of the screen. It is making me issues with every single application i use - always like someone is pressing that part of the screen constantly... you can imagine what it feels like... I have tried to hard reset the phone - same story.
Now, i know that replacing the complete screen will probably fix my problems but this is not an option at the moment. No money for that. My question is: is there a way to totally disable just that part of the screen? Totally disable it? Or perhaps you can offer me any other solution?
Thank you in advance!
Does the bottom part work during Wizard Setup but not after appearing of navigation bar?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It seems it is more like a HW problem. If i press button and hold it for sec or two then it can work but not every time. In the meantime it is pressing by itself - look at the video i made just now, cannot paste the link here since i am new but name of the video is: Nexus 4 - ghost buttons on YT
Honestly, i cannot remember if it was working OK or not during wizard setup... is there a way to start wizard again so i can answer your question?

Motorola Moto X Pure glitches when using "moto voice assist" (voice activation)

Motorola Moto X Pure glitches when using "moto voice assist" (voice activation)
hello all. I have two questions about this phone.
1: The Motorola Moto X pure, has an interesting proprietary voice activation feature, I'm sure many of you are already familiar with, called "Moto voice" assist. I often use this to instruct the camera to take a picture, enabling me, to do hands-free photography.
This has proven invaluable a couple of times, as my job is in security, and it's great to be able to pull up behind a car, or warehouse, and simply tell my phone to "take a photo" for future records. My problem is when I use it in conjunction with the camera function, there is a frustrating 3 second countdown, which is actually something more in the order of 5 seconds. I'm wondering if there's a way to eliminate this countdown, so the camera will merely open up and take a picture when I tell it to, rather than doing this slow countdown.
2: like many other people I believe, I migrated to the Motorola Moto X, from Samsung galaxy S3. on that phone, I could use a flashlight, and the camera simultaneously.
This was also good thing, because I could use the phone screen like a lit monitor in conjunction with flashlight, and it would help me find small things and details at night, and the two working together made the phone even more functional for me. Sadly, for some reason I do not understand, using the Motorola Moto X pure, I can find no way to use the flashlight, and the camera simultaneously.
Anybody have any ideas on how to solve these two problems?
Thank you for your time
PM
