"The Global version will give you 3G on AT&T, and on T-Mobile if you're in an area where they've refarmed their 1900 band (see www.airportal.de for a map). In areas that don't have T-Mobile coverage on 1900, you'll drop back to 2G (slow but fine for emails and light browsing). <<< Have you tried T-mobile's 2g speeds? You can't even use it for e-mails let alone any type of "light" browsing. It's slow enough for pages to time out after about a minute of loading. <<< I've tried 2G speed. I was getting 54.4kbps, which is slower than dial-up.

The US version will get you full T-Mobile 3G coverage as it includes the 1700 (AWS) band. However, you lose the 2100 band which is used heavily overseas, and the 900 band (also used but much less often than 2100). This is may not be a good choice for you if you plan on using data over 3G outside of North America. Calls and texts would work fine, data would work but at 2G -- fine for emails and light browsing.

Networks

Global GSM Model: GSM/GPRS/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz)

UMTS/HSPA+ up to 21 Mbps (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz)

----US GSM Model: GSM/GPRS/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz)

UMTS/HSPA+ up to 21 Mbps (850, 1700 (AWS), 1900 MHz)

CDMA Model: CDMA/EVDO Rev A (850, 1900 MHz)

Carriers:

Global version: AT&T, (T-Mobile 2G, 3G in some metro areas), H2OWireless, Straightalk (ATT SIM), Airvoice, Jolt, Red Pocket, Aiowireless, Consumer Cellular

US Version (all the above +): T-mobile 3G, Ptel, Straightalk (Tmobile SIM), SimpleMobile, Lycamobile, Brightspot, GoSmart."

"AWS=1700 uplink+2100 downlink=UMTS 1700

Doesn't matter if the specs says 2100 or not(2100 is for Europe and Asia, has nothing do to with TMo USA) what matters is AWS(UMTS 1700).

So the US GSM version will work with TMo 3G, the global version might also work if you're in a TMo refarmed 1900MHz area."

Also this helps to clarify the 1700 vs 2100 vs AWS (credit to lex2000 on Slickdeals):

Boy am I glad I started this thread. I am going to switch to international version.
[Moto G General] x2h:
It seems to me Amazon are selling only US versions now.
[Moto G General] karthikus:
How can i change the pre-ordered Global version to US Version

Hey guyz, Thanks for this thread.

I have ordered a global version of Moto G after calling up the customer care several times and confirming that the Global version works with both T mobile and AT&T for voice calls and 3G. They did not tell me any location related constraints. So does that mean 3G on T-mobile will work on 1900 Frequency in all areas in US ?

Now after reading this thread i am not sure whether i should go ahead with the Global or change it to US Version.

Also when i called Moto to cancel my order, they said it cannot be cancelled however i can return the device to get back the money. Is there any other way of switching from International to US without receiving and re-sending the device ?
[Moto G General] saber.srod:
It means you will only get 3g if u are in a refarmed tmobile area
[Moto G General] karthikus:
Returning the device - Problem

I had a chat with the customer care today and they said we need to accept the package to process the refund. We cant refuse to accept the package from Fedex to process the refund.

Any comments ?
[Moto G General] x2h:
I called Moto yesterday and the cs cancelled my order for me. I have yet to receive a confirmation email yet.
[Moto G General] karthikus:
Hi When did you place the order ? For me they said it cannot be cancelled !
[Moto G General] x2h:
I placed the order on 11.29 for the USA version.
[Moto G General] karthikus:
Thats the problem. I have placed an order for Global version for which the shipping has started. I think they wont cancel the order now.

But they have not charged me yet. So can i cancel the payment or block the vendor in my Credit card so that they cannot proceed with the payment ?:confused:

---------- Post added at 06:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:38 AM ----------

I wanna know if there is a problem in processing the payment with the credit card, they wont proceed with the order right ? Or will there any other problem ?

Amazon Shipping Delay

I placed an order with Amazon for mine on Monday with a ship date of Wednesday. I got an e-mail last night saying that the phone won't ship till next Wednesday on the 11th. Anyone else have this happen? I ordered the 16GB US version.
[Moto G General] fubag:
that's not a delay, that was supposed to be how it works...the international version was to ship dec 2 directly from MOTO, or dec 4th from Amazon, and the US was to ship Dec. 9th from MOTO or Dec. 11th from Amazon
[Moto G General] silverramsrt:
Ordered US 16gb on Dec 2. Original email said ships on Dec 4. Then got another email that said ships on Dec 6. I emailed CS to ask why dates changed and they responded with "supply issues" and upgraded my shipping to 1day for free.

Today the email says the phone won't be released on amazon til Dec 11, which means I'll get it on Dec 12.

Which, to me confirms they made a mistake.

I just chalk it up to human error.

It's a good thing I'm a patient man, but waiting 10 days for my wife's bday present sucks!
[Moto G General] creeve4:
Delayed yet again until Dec 19th...

Has anyone received their US versions from Amazon?
[Moto G General] fooznugget:
I ordered a US version on the 4th. It originally said that it was shipping on the 11th and it still says "delivery estimate: December 13, 2013". I have not gotten a shipping notification so I'm not actually expecting the phone this week.
[Moto G General] daryllh:
When I ordered, it said the item would start shipping the 11th of Dec. My order is still open with est delivery of...tomorrow. No shipping information yet. I also noticed the availability now says 4-6 weeks. I really hope the previous orders are fulfilled on time.
[Moto G General] sunnycheeba:
I ordered a 16GB US GSM model on Dec 4th with standard free shipping. This evening Amazon updated my order info:
[Moto G General] billbradford:
Ordered a 16G US GSM model on the 7th; finally got an email last night that it had shipped and the delivery ETA is Monday the 16th.

Wish they'd given a free upgrade to overnight shipping due to the delay. I expected it to ship on the 11th or 12th at latest. Perhaps Amazon was waiting on a shipment from Moto?
[Moto G General] sunnycheeba:
Amazon.com has a few US GSM 16GB models back in stock.
[Moto G General] creeve4:
They just shipped my 16GB US model that I ordered Dec 2nd.
[Moto G General] CADude:
My delivery estimate with Amazon now says I will be getting my phones by December 16th.

They haven't been shipped yet though...
[Moto G General] kura808:
Ordered December 2nd.

Shipped this morning.

Estimated arrival is December 20th.

I'm a bit relieved because it's a gift for my mom. As long as it gets to Hawaii before Christmas xP
[Moto G General] CADude:
My phones are finally shipping. They will be here on the 16th for sure.
[Moto G General] dreadnatty08:
Ordered the 8Gb US GSM on Dec 6th. Said it would be here the following Friday but was moved up. Now it's planned for Dec 18th, has shipped. Amazon asked me if I wanted to upgrade to the 16Gb version since it was available already but I declined. It's going to be strictly a streaming device and I don't need much storage.

Only if you pay for the capability. Or you can bypass the service check... A few posts on xda describe how to use a modified apk and adb to get tethering to work without subscribing through the provider... Search through the moto x forums... You'll find it.

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alcamize:
With the latest update I received from Verizon for my Razr M XT907 my phone has been using battery a lot faster than normal and running overall slower. I'm wondering if there is a way to downgrade to an earlier update version or just to the original build that was on the phone when it was released. My phone is not rooted or otherwise modded otherwise I would of just put on another rom or just did a total refresh of everything but it's stock so I'm kinda stuck. I've done resets, I've cleared the cache, I've checked the current root methods and none of them seem to work on this build (which is build 98.18.94.xt907 on verizon).

Really would appreciate even a point in the right direction for this phone as it's never been like this before the update, the battery was always good before lasting all day on a single charge and the lag with apps was never there before this update and I'm really getting bummed out over the phone now suddenly dropping in quality over an update.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RikRong:
Since your bootloader is locked, you can't downgrade. There are also no root methods for the current update. If you've already tried to clear caches and FDR, you might just need to use the stock firmware and flash it in RSD and start with a clean slate.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zombolt:
Wait a second. Let me get this straight. Locked bl =no downgrade?? All of a sudden there is lag and the radio is terrible! I was counting on being able to rsd back to the previous build.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Leraeniesh:
The update before the one that patched the boot loader disabled downgrading with RSD. If you complain to Verizon, you might get lucky and get a factory unit with 4.1.1 installed, where you can then unlock and enjoy working stock.

Hello, please tell me how to turn widgets on the lock screen. I deleted the file HwLockScreen.apk and got a clean AOSP lock screen. But now I would like to enabled widgets.

I know how to edit system files, decompile. If someone has already solved this question, tell me what to fix.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] tauio111:
The AOSP lockscreen in EMUI roms is not an android 4.2.* lockscreen but a 4.1 one, which doesnt support adding widgets afaik. Need to port it somehow.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] HProt:
Thanks, I will look for instructions on porting
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] tauio111:
Donä't bother, afaik noone has ported the 4.2 lockscreen to 4.1 before. And the EMUI 2.0 rom will probably have 4.2 aosp lockscreen underneath the ui.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] CrackerJackMcHenry:
Hey guys new to the site, and before I get started, I know I know there's such thing as a search button. I used it and didn't find exactly what I was looking for. So, the other night I tripped and got my Razr a little wet. It didn't get fully submerged but it did get a significant amount of water on it. I immediately turned it off and pulled my SIM and SD out. I dried those off and put the phone in a bag of rice for 2 full days. I took it out and put it on the charger and it charged right up. I then turned it on and it was acting a bit sketchy, the touchscreen wasn't working and the soft buttons weren't working and it kept restarting itself. I turned it off and let it charge fully. I turned it on and it was still all messed up. I put it in recovery mode and it didn't work so I factory reset it. It's bearable now but the touchscreen is a little iffy.

The main point is, are there any workarounds to where I can either have no unlock screen, or have my home, back, search and settings buttons on the home/lock screen, or does anyone know how to fix the soft buttons.

Thanks for bearing with me through this post.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] hardikjakharia:
I think the best path would be to use, on-screen controls if you are on stock rom, install pie launcher from play store,

else install paranoid android rom, or install Xposed module - Gravity Box.

I don't see anything called pie launcher in the Play Store. What's paranoid/xposed module - gravity box?

[Nexus 4 General] gingerboy92:
extract it to prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/arm/

change the build/envsetup.sh

find these line

toolchaindir=arm/arm-eabi-$targetgccversion/bin

change it to the folder name of the compiler you want.

for example mine is

toolchaindir=arm/sabermod-arm-eabi-4.8/bin

(used sabermod 4.8 as compiler, the folder name is sabermod-arm-eabi-4.8)

I just got my Verizon Dev Edition and am having trouble unlocking the bootloader using my MacBook Pro running OS X 10.9. I am following the instructions from the Moto website.

- I downloaded the SDK and unzipped it.

- I downloaded the USB drivers (though they only show it for up to 10.8 Mountain Lion) and installed them.

- I put the phone in Fastboot mode, connected to my computer, opened up the terminal and went to the directory where I installed the tools, and typed in the command per instructions:

​

$ fastboot oem get_unlock_data

Unchecked the ''auto-reboot'' in odin, and after flasing, did the manual restart to recovery (Vol. Up + Power +.Home) and still nothing..

Tried another version ''philz_touch_5.15.0-jfltetmo.tar.md5'' and still nothing happened.

What am I missing? Any help please?

Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Misterjunky:
re: recovery

You don't need to press the HOME key to get into recovery.

Just press the volumeUp and the power button at the same

time until you see tiny blue writing in the top left hand side

of the phone's screen then let go of the buttons and it should

go into recovery mode.

My suggestion is to use either TWRP or CWM recovery for best results.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tyler.Boston1:
I would first root then go into the play store and download ROM manager. After doing that install cwm through there then reboot into recovery and flash philz recovery (.zip) provided somewhere in his posts and you'll be fine. I do it every time this way.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
Rename the file. Just take off the .md5 at the end.

Make it just .tar at the end. It should work fine.

so today i went to unlock and flash CM 10.1 on my tablet.

unlocking went smoothly

installing clockwork recovery went fine

installing cm10.1 and gapps went fine

once i booted into cm successfully, i checked the internal storage to see if it was clear. it wasn't, so i went to settings, backup and reset, and done a factory reset. now i'm stuck on this one screen and i dont know what it is.

i've held the power button and volume down until the tablet restarts and that results in the same thing.

i've tried power and volume up. that seems to start the tablet but the screen stays blank. i connected it to the computer and my computer installed an APX or APTX or something like that driver.

i've tried holding power, volume up and down, and that does the same as the power and volume up.

i'm very new to installing custom recoveries and roms. can anyone give me an idea on whats happened :(
