I was suggesting to flash the international version ROM because it has more dev support. Few of us her are not in need of dual sim at all. Just using only 1 sim all the time.
[Moto G General] NoBrain-NoPain:
:confused:

dont say that now !!!

i was really :confused::confused: confused between those two...

shud i cancel my order ? i just seriously dont think that extra 8gig wud b any use to me but it's a steal for the price ! i dont play much games nd wont b watching movies on phone, hav quite small music collection...should i cancel 8gb n order 16gb ??? or may b i shud just stick with my c5-03 :crying:
[Moto G General] pxdx:
Yes cancel the order and go with 16gb if it is still possible.
[Moto G General] AbhijeetNagawade:
Considering no expandable storage 16 gigs is preferred choice.

But if 8 gigs is enough for you keep the order.
[Moto G General] jamstar.5:
Same problem here

I went for 8 gig as I only use social networks like fb Google WhatsApp etc

If it meets ur requirements then not a problemt

You can always cloud your music
[Moto G General] NoBrain-NoPain:
k !

i Have cancelled the order :(

any idea how many weeks before it appears in local stores !?

also, how Moto G compares with Lenovo S920 ????
[Moto G General] Sandipkim:
A simple way to hide SIM2 signal

icon:

1. Edit file /system/build.prop

2. Find this line os code (without quotes)

"ro.operator.optr=OP02"

3. Change it to (without quotes)

"ro.operator.optr=OP01"

3. Save and Reboot

try this it works on moto
[Moto G General] mansigupta:
I went with the 8GB cos I don't play any games on the phone at all... I only need memory for music and the odd pics that I may click and even these I keep transferring to the computer. I have already shifted my entire data to the phone and still have about 3 GB available so good enough for me....

If you play a lot of games or watch movies ont he phone, then you may want to wait for the 16GB.
[Moto G General] vNa5h:
yes a CM is a no-brainer for this phone as of now...

root + cwm + gravitybox(xposed) is all u need

Guys what's that back cover you guys speaking about?. .. Does this phone come with an extra back cover?
[Moto G General] galaxys2s:
Yup , that's all i need as the STOCK ROM is entirely Vanilla one like Nexus so performance will not degrade as there is no bloatware..

So just Root + CWM + XPosed framework with different modules is all i need :D

But even this require Unlocked bootloader which will VOIDS the warranty permanently upto now as we know .. !!

[Moto G General] pr.itdude:
Are you using any screen guard here??

Btw, does our Moto G XT 1033 anyway different from XT 1032 in terms of screen size or other physical specification. I actually want to know, can we buy & use XT1032 accessories for Indian moto g edition?
[Moto G General] chkalyan:
3G not working in MOTO G

Hi ,

Thanks for the videos.

I bought the 16gb version of moto g from flipkart. My question is regarding 3g. I am using AIRTEL and the 3g services are active. In moto I am not getting the 3g. It always shows the E only.The AIRTEL sim is inserted in sim 1 slot.

Thanks,

Kalyan.
[Moto G General] i_rnb:
They have same dimension and they look just same - like twins - you can not say if it is 1032 or 1033 just by looking it ! So yes, go ahead buying xt1032 accessories for xt1033.
[Moto G General] gagan97:
check in network setting might be ur on only gsm mode.. choose gsm+WCDMA mode for working 3G connection..
[Moto G General] Harsha Raj:
I'll be ordering screen guard from gadgetshiledz. It's a liquid based screen guard and it won't get scratched that easily like for months together. Price is 399 or 499 for screen only or full body protection respectively. I'm yet to decide to buy which one.

[Moto G General] i_rnb:
Yes they do. But some hub like my nearest one are lazy enough - so they make a reschedule request to flipkart and our orders got delayed to next day.

WOW ! Thanks for the coupon - and make payment through PayU - you will get another 10% off on discounted price - total Rs.80 + Rs.31.9 off !

Cheers !

How do you guys apply the screenguard on your own? Isn't it difficult? I sometimes feel its better to get it done from shopkeepers.
[Moto G General] i_rnb:
I believe this is the best screen guard - http://www.gadgetshieldz.in/motorola-moto-g-screen-protectors-skins-covers-case.html

Buy screen protection only - as [MENTION=4940005]adidas007[/MENTION] has mentioned - there is no point of buying screen guard for rubberized back cover !

use adw20 for 20% discount (thanks to [MENTION=4940005]adidas007[/MENTION]) - and use PayUMoney gateway to pay the money - you will get 10% cashback on discounted price - so you will get the screen guard at Rs.287 !

10% cashback will be stored in you payumoney wallet - which can be used to purchase stuffs from the sites - Goibibo, Bookmyshow, Redbus, Tradus, Rechargeitnow, Ferns n Petals, Groupon, Travelyaari etc.
[Moto G General] Seadra:
Ok problem here. When I get Moto G to usb with laptop or charging via wallcharger(OEM) , it charges all good. But after sometime(don't know exact, may be 10-15mins later) phone hangs alot. I try to sweep left but an app opens from app or even worse sometimes. When I get the usb out , it goes all good again. The problem only comes when stick it to a charger(AC or USB doesn't matter) Anyone else have this? Tried factory reset, same problem.
[Moto G General] Harsha Raj:
I never allow shopkeepers to put The screen guard because they won't put it as per my satisfactory requirements. For me and my friend's phone I apply the screen guards myself. Just see few videos, try it yourself for few times and you will master it. You will not lew4n anything without trying.

Also applying liquid screen guards are easier than normal ones, but it will take time to finish the work.
[Moto G General] invisiblebond:
what is liquid based screen guard ?

Btw Do one need Screen Protector for Gorilla glass 3 ?

Wikipedia Gorilla Glass 3
[Moto G General] adidas007:
Liquid based scratch guard are protectors which needs to be wetted by a soapy solution and then applied. It makes the application way easier and it has the so called self healing technology. It takes around 12 hours to dry though.

Even the gorilla 1 does not require a scratch guard. But with time scratches do appear. It's totally your call to put or not to put!

---------- Post added at 06:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:24 PM ----------

And if anyone is interested in more liquid screen protectors here's another one. Though the delivery takes 10-12 days but it's Cheap and worth it.

Voltage problem may be

It also happens with me in college hostel but not at home, screen become unresponsive lands clicks instead of swipe.Try charging via laptop through usb data cable don't connect your laptop to AC at that time if no lags then its certainly due to voltage getting stabilizer may help i have that at home.I am still waiting to get my moto g to get deliver .
[Moto G General] satheesh.a:
That's nothing to worry buddy!:laugh:

It is due to parasitic capacitive coupling effect messing with your capacitive touch screen[due to very poor power quality in grid line.]

as abinav said before, just remove laptop charger while charging your phone or don't use while charging in ac adapter.

it wont do any permanent damage

even laptop touch pads are also susceptible to this effect.

i'll check the output quality of A/C charger once i get my moto G:good:

I just got it from Flipkart ( 8gb ) and a hardcore fan of FP. they have not provided the usb cable. just earphone and wall charger with cable( but it does not have USB pin to connect with comp). So i called up Flipkart they say they are not giving it(no mention of 8gb or 16gb) even told me to contact motorola for confirmation. Now how the hell am i supposed to get my music 200 songs to my phone??

:mad::mad:
[Moto G General] Arun320617:
ya in 16 gb you get 13 gb of storage wheras in 8 gb you get around 5 gb, 5 gb is very less even for for an average user
[Moto G General] pr.itdude:
But they have mentioned a very weird method to install it...by using diluted soap water. :confused:

Can we install this screen protector like others...where we just have to peel off.

One more thing, AMZER screen protector is also available at the same price point, which one is better?

Can you tell me more about its "orange effect". Didn't get after reading about it. :confused:
[Moto G General] B44Z:
Hmmm..in that case u can ask from your friends if they have a spare cable. Or you can buy a new one from market. Branded ones such as from Samsung etc. will cost more[200-300 probably, in my city Samsung usb cable price is 300/- as told by a shopkeeper] but be aware as they might just be the duplicates of the local chinese ones. Local usb cables don't cost much (Around 50/-). I have a usb cable from Micromax that came with my older mmx phone charger and it has had no problems at all even though I know it is chinese:p
[Moto G General] adidas007:

Have you seen a orange peel? It has that waviness. That waviness is there for a day or so until it's completely dried up. That's it.

Then it looks like you haven't tried any water based screen guard. You won't find any scratches for months together. But for 100 bucks one you will find scratches with a week of use.

I am really surprised at the ignorance about Corning Gorilla Glass 3 that Moto G has and seeing all the people searching for screen guards.:eek: People, Corning Gorilla Glass DOES NOT require a screen guard, this glass won't scratch even if you try to scratch it with keys, pins, or knives. I am a Motorola Defy user for the past 3 years, which has a Corning Gorilla Glass, i have been using it without any screen guard from day #1, to date there isn't a single scratch on my Defy. I just drop it in my pocket with keys, coins, cigarette lighter and what not....nothing ever scratches it.

Moto G has Corning Gorilla Glass "3" which is an improved version of Corning Gorilla Glass. Using screen guard will just reduce your screen sensitivity. Stop wasting time and money on screen guards.
[Moto G General] adidas007:
Well my corning gorilla glass 2 got scratched in my pocket. Better safe than sorry :)
[Moto G General] mykimouse:
Gorilla or Godzilla, nothing is scratch proof :P
[Moto G General] satheesh.a:
You are partly right.

keys,pins,knifes,coins or any hardened metal cant scratch gorilla glass because their rank below 7 in mohs hardness scale

and Gorilla glass stands somewhere between 8-8.5 [Normal glass- around 7].it can withstand scratch better than normal glass.

But there are several minerals that can scratch gorilla glass such as carbides,nitrides,diborides[they rank above 9 in mohs scale]

these minerals are widely found in sand so they may scratch our "precious" gorilla glass.

Bottom line: While gorilla glass is scratch resistant, It is not scratch proof!!
[Moto G General] Seadra:
Ok cool, thanks for confirming. This is going in general section in a new thread.
[Moto G General] Dhiraj:
Touch screen sensitive become less with screen guard.
[Moto G General] alviumair:
These kind of problems are generally caused due to poor earthing most of the times. Not everyone faces this issue. I read about it somewhere.
