[Moto G General] V!KR@M:
According to review of covers, the flip cover doesn't provide any protection from drops because the sides and corners are exposed. Also the magnet provided on the cover is powerful enough to mess up with magnetometer. ( See the discussion here==> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2602496)

And about the back covers, they are similar to the one we get with the phone. So i'm not sure what protection it offers.

Except for the colours and looks, these covers are good for nothing in terms of protection.

Hope there will be more good covers available soon...

Guys

Moto G Launched In India.

I was Planning to Buy Nexus 5 ..But all the hyper surrounding Moto G...I'am Planning to go for Moto G and save some money for New Laptop

First Thing is...

is 2gb Ram really required for a phone ? Do we really use it ?

And with Android Lowering down its requirement...How's the RAM Management ?

Second

How's the Battery Life ?

Should I buy this ? I'm a Moderate user,with requirement of regular android updates(which I don't think is a Issue as long as there is XDA)

Please Suggest !!

Thanks In Advance

Cheers :)

U could have a owned a mahindra xuv 500 .:laugh:.. their pre launch offer was to guess the closest price and get one ;)

---------- Post added at 07:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:04 PM ----------

Battery life is reported to be awesome

2gb ram is not required until u r a super multitasker... I currently own an s2 and I never had any problm wid low ram

Kikat was tested and formulated (not really) on a nexus 4 wid 512mb ram.. so I guess if project svelte (pardon me if I m wrong) works .. 1gb should be great for a device running AOSP .

Heavily modified roms do require more ram ...not ones based on pure aosp.

Bt camera is okay okay... that is what preventing me to chnge my s2 for motoG... I have a super cam ;)
[Moto G General] smallet:
For RAM, it depends. If u already have 3-5tabs open in a browser and open a new memory heavy application, there is a good chance the browser will have to reload the pages. So, will be restrictive if u really multitask much, but in terms of performance, you wont notice significant difference b/w 1gb and 2gb ram.

For the first time ever I saw a electronic device in India priced equally to the US price and its Moto G. What a steal it is!! Too bad there is no word on the availability of Single SIM variant.

Moto G 8 GB in US costs $179 + $20 tax = Rs. 12445

Moto G 16 GB in US costs $199 + $22 tax = Rs. 13821.

Guys am confused here please help!

I'm wondering to sell moto g and I should buy xiaomi mi3 or not?
[Moto G General] rhitik:
I don't trust Chinese companies. So, I won't suggest you to buy that phone. ✌
[Moto G General] Piyush Rawal:
It depends on your needs.

If latest and greatest software is what you value then stay with Moto G as Motorola has been doing amazing job with software so far.

On the other hand Mi3 at that price is a steal. So, if powerful hardware is that you desire then go for Mi3. Software on Mi3 is pretty good as well but it's not conventional Android. You will get slower updates compared to Moto G and there is almost zero third party development on it so far.

Also, do not worry about Xiaomi being a Chinese brand. China can produce bad phones as well as good phones and Mi3 falls into 'Good phones' Category.

So, decided to buy the current version only.

Any suggestions...?:confused:
[Moto G General] drmdsadiq:
Try getting the global GSM unlocked version online.. U can try sites like shopyourworld.com .. It'll cost u around 1000-2000 extra inclusive of shipping but if u really want it then that's the way to go.. Or u could ask any relatives/friends abroad to get it from US .. That would be cheaper..

[Moto G General] dakshmay21:
So, I am thinking of unlocking my bootloader and start with some fun exploits.

What works best for our XT1033? I don't use the second sim.

1. Stock, rooted ROM with exposed? Which recovery?

2. CM11?

3. Convert to GPE then PA?

4. Something else that you guys suggest.

Also, how easy is it to get back to stock in order to get stock OTA's if I want them around the time when L comes. Or for warranty.

Thanks!
[Moto G General] nirmalbalaji:
CM and PA have some weird bugs on Moto G nowadays especially System UI force close and audio problems. I prefer Stock ROM with Xposed, TWRP & removing some unwanted Google apps like Books, Google+, Google Photos, and Cloud Print.

Before tinkering the Stock ROM make a full back up if its a 4.4.4 firmware. So you can always flash it back to get the future OTAs. 4.4.2 Stock ROM was available at http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=14
[Moto G General] andogeek10:
1. For me, the stock ROM and xposed just don't cut it. I'm using TWRP. Seems to be the stablest.

2. It's good. But the problem with CM is that is more focused on single sim devices. Recently a new feature ( centre clock ) was introduced in CM. It broke the SystemUI on dual sim devices. It was fixed yesterday when a commit added the necessary changes for dual sim.

3. If you convert to GPE then you'll be able to use any ROM you want. Even I've converted my g into a GPE device. And PA? I love it. It's an amazing ROM. Also the maintainer has reverted the recent audio commits which broke the audio playback functionality.
[Moto G General] dakshmay21:
Is it easy to revert to stock from GPE?
[Moto G General] andogeek10:
Till the time you don't update to the 4.4.4 GPE OTA, you can. Since the 4.4.4 OTA for GPE updated the bootloader, you can't flash any image which is meant for Android 4.4.3 or lower.
[Moto G General] nitin.chobhe:
Yes, it must be your SIM card. I'm using the same xt1032 on 3G without any issues (as you were doing before few months ago) :)

Good that we have Latest Android now
[Moto G General] major9:
If I have a nandroid backup of my stock 4.4.4, can I use that to revert from GPE ?
[Moto G General] andogeek10:
That would only be partial. When you flash the GPE firmware, you also flash the radio image , which as far as I know is not backed up in nandroid backup. So your phone would still be recognised as a single sim device, which may cause incompatibilities with the dual sim stock firmware.

If you are converting to GPE then backup up the 4.4.4 GPE firmware (If you are upgrading via OTA) or else you can restore the stock 4.4.2 firmware by flashing the stock images.

Do not know how screwed your phone now is......but the 'Ok Google' hot word detection would not have worked if the selected language was English-India. You could have changed it to English-UK OR US for it to work.
[Moto G General] Pra713:
So for those of us who have rooted our Moto G, we are supposed to unroot it before updating to 4.4.4 OTA, right?

So are the following steps right or have I missed anything?

1. Open SuperUser app > Settings > Full unroot

2. System Settings > About phone > System updates > Update the phone OTA to 4.4.4

3. Reboot to bootloader > Apply zip from sd card "supersu.motog.zip"

Also, will the same supersu.motog.zip file, which I used to root my 4.4.2, work on the new 4.4.4?

can sumbdy pls provide me stock recovery image..

so pls for indian dual sim asia version stock recovery....
[Moto G General] jbanti:
Okay but first of all u need to download your firmware from sbf motorola and extract the zip file to the same location as your adb/fastboot folder. In the folder where your recovery.img and your fastboot is "Hold Shift and Right Click and choose open command window here" Make sure you got USB Debugging on and type in the following command

adb reboot bootloader

when it reboots into bootloader then type Following command

fastboot flash recovery

[Moto G General] zhopudey:
I too have the same doubt. What is the correct method for updating?
[Moto G General] anonyo:
For all who are rooted with custom recovery, update process is quite easy. This is what I did.

1) Take a full nandroid backup using custom recovery. Also backup all your personal data like music, photos, etc. Copy the nandroid backup to PC since the following steps are going to wipe your internal memory.

2) Flash the stock recovery.img from 4.3 stock rom downloaded from http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=14 (reboot to bootloader and run command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img")

3) Make sure your battery is more than 50% and then go to Settings->Backup & Reset->Factory Data Reset. Your phone will reboot and will be wiped completely including your internal memory. This is important since this step TRULY factory resets your phone, resetting through custom recovery does not do the job, custom recovery only wipes the /data partition and /system partition remains as is causing problems with OTA update.

4) Copy the OTA zip (download from http://xdaforums.com/moto-g/general/ota-file-indian-dual-sim-4-4-4-t2810166) to the root of your internal memory. Also copy SuperSU.zip to your internal memory (we will use this later on). Boot your phone into stock recovery and apply update from SD and choose the downloaded zip. The update will be applied and you will have Kitkat 4.4.4.

5) Now boot into bootloader (adb reboot bootloader). Run command "fastboot flash recovery <custom recovery image name>"

6) Boot into custom recovery immediately, this will make sure that your custom recovery is flashed, do not reboot the phone after flashing custom recovery. Once you boot into custom recovery, flash the SuperSu.zip from internal memory that you had copied in step 4).

7) Reboot your phone normally and you will have rooted 4.4.4.

8) Now copy the nandroid backup that you created in step 1) to your internal memory. Reboot into custom recovery and restore ONLY your /data partition from the nandroid backup, wipe cache and dalvik cache, and then reboot. You will have updated 4.4.4 with all your apps, msg, contacts, etc. restored. Copy any other data you need back to your internal memory from the backup you took in step 1)

Hope this helps.
[Moto G General] Pra713:
I have a few more questions:

1. Can we perform nandroid backup of stock ROM using custom recovery?

2. Is there any way to stop my phone from constantly notifying me that there is a new system update available?

If I decide I don't want to update to 4.4.4 and want to stick to my 4.4.2, I don't want constant reminders of the new update...
