Hi, I don't want to go too much philosophical here, but if you failed at such a simple task, do you really want to enter the world of custom ROM flashing with all its possible recovery problems, wrong ROM images soft-bricking your device etc.? If you say yes, then OK, let's look at it. There's a ton of walkthroughs for unlocking the bootloader. Even Motorola has an official one if I remember correctly. So, which one did you follow? What have you tried so far?

Question with the Moto G XT1033 (2013) dual SIM. When receiving a call, can you tell which SIM is receiving the call? If so, what does it say - just the carrier name? What if you have the same carrier for both SIMs? Can you set the name? Does it show the pre-selected SIM colour? Can you set the ringtone? I'm talking about Android 4.4.4, but interested in other releases too.

I am considering buying this phone. I have a work number and a personal number, both using the same carrier, and I need to know which number is being called. Thanks!

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matmutant:
sorry, by "branded" i meant did you buy your device with a data plan (at a network operator shop like vodafone, telcel, bell, SFR, ...) or are you using retail stock ROM ?

No, i'm not buy with a data plan, just retail stock rom. Btw what the dfference between stock with branded
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matmutant:
Branded needs the update to be pushed by the network operator

Retail should get it as soon as motorola pushed it.

OTA worked even on a 4.4.2 unlocked/rooted peregrine, so you shouldn't have issues...

But you may try to update "by hand" by flashing a stock 4.4.4 firmware instead :)

My Moto G is XT1032 NON-GPE, but unlock the bootloader and install the firmware 4.4.4 GPE, my question is if I can re-lock the bootloader with the commands; "fastboot oem lock begin" and "fastboot oem lock", but using the firmware GPE. Or I can just do it with the original firmware of my device signed by Motorola?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matmutant:
I think that it is safer to have original motorola firmware for your specific device before relocking.

Note that even after relocking, the bolean "iswarrantyvoid" will remain True so there will still clues of a previoulsy unlocked bootloader.

Screen isn't off while charging

I often power off my XT1032 before plugging the charger in. In the past when I used Android 4.4.2, the phone's screen showed the battery's charging process (in percentage) and it turned off completely while charging. However after upgrading my phone to Android 5.0.1 (Lollipop) GPE, after powering off the phone and starting charging it, I notice that the screen does not completely turn off but still has light.

Is that normal if the screen doesn't turn off completely while charging? I'm afraid it can damage the screen in long term as well as lengthen charging time (as the screen still works while charging). Please help. Thank you very much.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] remo0073:
