[Moto G General] VrVenkat:
Mind the weight!

I have used my friend's MotoG , it feels heavier than other phones . So when buying cases make sure it is not adding weight much to already what is weighing heavier!
[Moto G General] Tridon:
i thought along similar lines but it seems that Motorola will be pushing out an update (KitKat /4.4.2) for this phone very soon. Also, the cost is almost similar to the US, when you factor in Customs duty / shipping & handling etc. You'd lose warranty which could prove to be expensive should something go wrong with the phone and that would necessitate you shipping the phone back to the States. My take on this is that developer support should increase for the XT1033 given that Motorola is a developer friendly company and there is a growing user base of the Moto G !
[Moto G General] bramiah:
The 8 gb link is working now, and we can buy (if we want to), but the 16 gb variant is still re-directing me to the 8 gb variant. :(

Anyone know how to resolve this problem?

But I remember them tweeting that we can apply that offer to any no: of shell as long as its in the same cart with the phone..

What is the best rom for 4.4.4? Stock rom or a custom rom? I'm just fed up with the battery life on lollipop and the bugs in stock 5.1. So please suggest some good roms (a good lollipop rom will do too ?)
[Moto G General] prakharkmr27:
4get about taxes, see this-

in Germany - €196* [> Rs 16k]

in U.K. - £160* [> Rs 16k]

(* prices for 16GB, single-SIM)

So, there is no way India would get it any cheaper than this.

Yet to come, MediaTek MT6582 & MT6588 based phones will be much better in performance for this much amount of money.. But sadly, no KitKat on them before March-April (expectedly).
[Moto G General] harshaldesai:
Moto G

I couldn't wait for the India launch and hence asked my cousin in NY to order one for me and carry it with him to India next week. We ordered from amazon as Motorola site was experiencing delays and lot of people have been waiting for 8+ days for their phone's delivery.

The final landed price incl tax + 2 day shipping came to $227 for the 16GB Global GSM version. Which is a fair deal. I had a budget of ~14k for my new phone & i was considering Sony Xperia M but ended up buying Motorola Moto G. Cant wait to get it.

Regards,
[Moto G General] ImSherlocked:
Congrats. Do post your review.
[Moto G General] nitin.chobhe:
I'll get mine on 19 Dec, Thursday :laugh:

I'd asked my friend to order it. He ordered on 02 Dec and gave the address of my colleague who is there for 2 weeks. After that the follow up with Moto's support started. They all were giving me different information every time I called them.

And then there was this wind storm in Fort Worth, TX which again delayed the deliveries. My colleague was to leave US on 17 Dec so I was a bit nervous. But finally it got delivered on 13 Dec through overnight delivery. I had also ordered a case with it.

Now I'm waiting impatiently for my colleague to arrive here :p

I got the phone and the case for $ 228 ~ Rs 14083. Isn't it a good deal? :cool:
[Moto G General] myanogencod:
Just be aware that Mediatek chipsets are the definition of closed-source approach and devices based on them seem basically abandoned at birth. They might dump new binary blobs for some of them some day, but modders and developers can't really fix or maintain them without sources.

Broadcom just recently announced their entry to the low-cost integrated chipset market to compete with Mediatek on price. Historically Broadcom's support for open-source development has been nearly as bad as Mediatek's, but they've been trying to improve on that point so if they play their cards right they could easily become the manufacturers of choice for developer-supportable low-end devices. Are you listening, Broadcom??

I'll take long-term software support any day over release-date performance on paper. The former will retain usable value for years to come while the latter will be toxic landfill material not long after its release. Just try to be well-informed when you choose your own priorities.
[Moto G General] prakharkmr27:
yes, therefore, no MediaTek :)

they won't come up with KitKat before May-June (because even today they are releasing new devices with 1yr old JB-4.2)..

And by the time MediaTek's KitKat devices arrive, KitKat would be outdated, and ........... u already said the rest of the story.

I'm getting mine on the 6th of JAN, my cousin is bringing it from the States. 221$ for the 16gb global version, 6 pack screen guard, stylus and gel case cover. :D
[Moto G General] avi_wizard:
Even I am currently waiting for the Indian release of Moto G. Will first check out the prices here and then decide whether to buy here or get it from the US (a friend is coming in Feb.)

What I am concerned about is also the Developer support for the Dual sim variant which will be released here. AFAIK, the dual sim variants are for Indian and Chinese markets only. Since the rest of the world will have the single SIM variants, will the ROMs created for those work on the Dual Sim ones? Will there be a different firmware/baseband used for the dual sim variant which might cause issues?
[Moto G General] CedricAndroidlover:
Good Question

I think it wont be a problem to flash Roms!
[Moto G General] augzeus:
Update for Moto G in India

I will get my Moto G on 24th,

Just read that Moto updated G's OS to 4.4.2...

Can anyone suggest me on how to update the OTA in India,

Will i be able to update is as usual or Can i use some proxy IP or such that to update.

Thanks in advance.
[Moto G General] harshaldesai:
Moto G getting Android 4.4.2 update starting today - http://pulse.me/s/Jv8EF

This is great news. I am waiting for my phone to arrive. Will have to figure out a way to upgrade if OTA isnt available in India.

---------- Post added at 09:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:38 AM ----------

One way you can try is when u get ur fone, dont pop in a sim card and connect the phone to a wifi network and try the ota update.

Thats what I intend to do. Will keep this thread posted as soon as I get my handset.
[Moto G General] imarsh7:
My Moto G will arrive Tomorrow

I have ordered it from dubai jadopado.com for Rs.15600/-.Need to find some motorola shell case.Where can I get those shells from motorola?
[Moto G General] avi_wizard:
I don't think it should matter. You can update it even after putting in the SIM.
[Moto G General] TJ_Ahluwalia:
I got the Moto G for my aunt from US. It is here and works properly if anyone was still wondering.No KitKat yet though.
[Moto G General] harshaldesai:
Pls update if you manage to get the kitkat update. They say if purchased from Motorola or Amazon devices shall get the 4.4.2 update. Mine is a amazon.com purchase. Counting days!!!
[Moto G General] harshaldesai:
Finally got my moto g today.

Havent really started using it as such but from whatever I have used and experienced its one hell of a device. Since the home wifi is down I am relying on 3G at the moment.
[Moto G General] TJ_Ahluwalia:
My aunt's moto g from motorola.com got Kitkat today!! Super smooth

[Moto G General] sudipt123:
Also interesting is the fact that in the USA version the second Sim slot is bent- which means the dual Sim runs the same hardware! Let's hope that the same Roms work for both the single and dual Sim versions!

But, some apps, viz. Settings.apk (for SIM Management), Hangouts.apk (for SMS/MMS), Contacts.apk (bcoz of Dialer), Phone.apk (maybe), SystemUI.apk (bcoz of two signal indicators), etc. and of course the build.prop will have to be different between the single-SIM & dual-SIM versions. Agree? :P :D
[Moto G General] reversegear:
i hope i will get at the earliest. flipkart central warehouse is just 3km away from where i stay

im expecting moto G by tomo evening.

order also got confirmed just in 3mins of payment.
[Moto G General] Tridon:
I think it was on for 30-40 mins before it got sold out. 8 Gb still in stock !
[Moto G General] ts1506:
Moto G 16GB already out of stock within 15 mins of release

8GB is still in stock.
[Moto G General] Tridon:
Do they process your order faster if you opt for online payment rather than CoD ?
[Moto G General] akhilpo:
hehe.. check out.. i ordered at 12:15am exactly... When I checked the product page of 16GB immediately after that, it was sold out.
[Moto G General] pr.itdude:
Here is my first post at xda. And that's all coz of Moto G. Was following moto g and xda since december.

Glad that I am one of the early grabbers as its OOS now. :victory:
[Moto G General] Tridon:
According to this site, http://www.androidos.in/2014/02/moto-g-india-launch-faqs/ , 5000 units of 16 GB would be available and 14,800 units of the 8 GB model. You are certainly lucky !
[Moto G General] akhilpo:
Anybody know what time they actually started selling the moto g???
[Moto G General] reversegear:
No idea coz i never came across COD.

but with my past experience, to get the order confirmed some times it used to take 30~40mins

---------- Post added at 08:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:19 PM ----------

the first batch is already sold out wait for another one.;) i hope the stocks should resume quickly
[Moto G General] akhilpo:
Just out of curiosity, anybody here bought the 8GB version?
[Moto G General] pjaware:
Welcome to the club bro. Same is my case. I am also one of the early grabbers.
[Moto G General] eddy4823:
s**t. outta stock. i was sooo waiting to order. damn I missed it. :(
[Moto G General] akhilpo:
8GB is now out of stock too..
[Moto G General] Tridon:
This must be a record of sorts ! Both models went out of stock under an hour from launch ! There are 19,800 Moto Gs waiting to be shipped ! I can't wait for them to reach and for devs to start working on a CyanogenMod for Dual SIM Moto G !
[Moto G General] deamonoid:
Is there any news when it will be in stock again?
[Moto G General] akhilpo:
https://twitter.com/Flipkart/status/430995988799426560

They did tweet that multiple shells can avail the 70% discount. But they discounted for only one shell for me.. :( :(
[Moto G General] B44Z:
+1

I think flipkart has not put all its stock at once. Since there isn't much difference in the price of both the models, they'd want to sell their 8 gb stock too. So devs should be prepared to start working on CM ;)
[Moto G General] Seadra:
What the hell.. I saw the Motorola's tweet today and thought phone will be released tomorrow 12PM afternoon... and got screwed >.< When will FK get more stock.. Such a ****ing fail. They launched it in midnight? are they ****ing kidding us?
[Moto G General] jyotman007:
Yes!!

---------- Post added at 01:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:30 AM ----------

They said 12AM not PM
[Moto G General] akhilpo:
Seems to me the same.. It might be available tomorrow morning.
[Moto G General] Seadra:
I did mention that dude. My mistake for thinking it was tomorrow. But m still pissed. Ok, the launch was at 12AM midnight, and I am here now right? at exactly 1:15AM, so in 1hrs and 15mins they are OOS. What is this ****? Google?

Google did the same with Nexus 5. Atleast they launched it at 3AM midnight, so probably most of peeps were sleeping that time, I woke up at 9AM and directly bought it. I was one of the early adopters for Nexus 5 in India. But here it's whole another story. Motorola's G was OOS in freaking 1:15 hrs... actually from what people are reporting, 16gb was OOS in 15 mins and 8gb in 30 mins... isn't that a fail? why didn't they get more stock :/ what the hell... oh well.
[Moto G General] Ankush menat:
Finally My order got confirmed Moto G 16GB <3 <3
[Moto G General] Tridon:
You have a Nexus 5 and still want to buy the Moto G ? Well, you could wait and get your hands on it when it comes back in stock, which should be soon. Or wait for Flipkart's two week exclusive deal to end for the Moto G to flood markets !
[Moto G General] imemine29:
Which 3?
[Moto G General] Seadra:
Moto G is for Dad who is so pissed off with Nokia 710 from last 2 years. Someone plz PM me whenever it get's available again. I will be checking this thread and FK as well all the time.
[Moto G General] i_rnb:
won't it be better if you check the main product page in flipkart ?!
[Moto G General] Seadra:
It will be better genius, but i'm saying just in case.
[Moto G General] i_rnb:
Humm.. This is really disappointing - I was looking for shells, (first of all, they did not notify us via mail, secondly, 70% off did not avail on multiple shells, so I was making sure, thus wasting my time) and when I hit the proceed button - BOOM - my cart is empty, I reloaded moto g page - OOS !

:crying::crying:
[Moto G General] Seadra:
Heh, i tweeted to Motorola and flip kart for this ****, let's see if they have the pair to reply.
[Moto G General] akhilpo:
I was too surprised when I found that while adding multiple shells. Then I choose the red one and went on to payment. I barely made it before sold out. Now the long boring wait until I get it on my hand. Every online retail sites should implement the drones delivery like amazon is planning to do in USA. That is delivery within half an hour of purchase. :):):)
[Moto G General] i_rnb:
flipkart started responding in facebook - but all the responds are basically same - it is

Sorry for the inconvenience <name of someone, unlucky like me>.
