[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Benanov:
I admit that this is a little narrow - but I figured I'd share my experiences.

I use Replicant, so I really want a phone with few blobs, an unlockable bootloader, and a low price. I did not win on this phone... too many blobs.

However, I like this phone, and it was cheap (I have XT1304 / US GSM edition). I figured that if I could de-Google the device it'd tide me over until CM comes out and is stable. I don't care to use Google Play Services. At all. (I know it's rare, but hey, I like smartphones, just not so tied to the walled garden.)

When I disabled all of the Google & Motorola Services that I could on stock, I'd get crashes from anything that wanted to use my location. ADB revealed it was crashing looking for the "network" location provider.

This would kill everything; even the modem would be reset - I'd miss calls, the Launcher would restart...it was basically a soft reboot because of underlying system crashes. Switching the location mode off of "High Accuracy" or "Device" to "Battery Saving" would cause it not to crash, but that's not exactly a good location provider.

Now yes, I'm disabling "system" services. I'm on my own. But someone's gotta do it.

My solution:

Post-factory reset with no Google account:

Install any location consumer - I used SatStat in F-Droid. (I'm too new to post links; find it yourself. You're smart and people like you.) I installed it via adb after turning on USB Debugging. There aren't many other ways from GNU/Linux distros, but you should be able to MTP it on there too.

Turn location on. Dismiss annoying dialog: No Google you can't snarf my location. (This dialog doesn't save its answer if you don't have a Google Account. It. Asks. Every. Time. Therefore, it must die.)

At this point it gets fuzzy - I basically went on a disabling spree, and managed to disable everything except Google Play Services (No Notifications, Clear Data, Disable Service) checking to see if SatStat would crash between every disable. I was also checking the Location settings every once in a while as well - eventually Google Settings revealed that "Google Location reporting is not avaiable for this location" which means... it's dead, Jim. No more annoying dialog. At this point it was safe to disable Google Play Services.

When I was done I had about half a page of apps - if that. At which point... I installed F-Droid, and am busy repopulating the world.

The entire point of this post: if you're going to de-Google your phone, use CM and don't flash GApps. Disabling everything on stock is risky, but doable. Just expect to factory reset. Disabling in Settings is so much better than the old days of Root & Remove.

Have not tried the new method but the one i provided is the official rom
[Micromax A116] rabin69x:
No I haven't.

I need 100% working method. Do u have any?
[Micromax A116] rajneeshk:
4.1 to 4.2 upgrade involves risk of touch panel not working for some CHD phones. If you want 100% then go to service centre , they will upgrade free of cost ( in case something goes wron with touch panel responsibility lies with service centre).
[Micromax A116] freakydev8:
There is no risk of tp upgrade error if you dont touch the phone for 20 minutes. I have used this method for 6 phones. Everyone in my family has a canvas hd
[Micromax A116] rabin69x:
problem

1. can I install custom recovery without rooting using sptools? because I want to keep backup of my original rom so that I can go back anytime I want.

2. can I flash any rom I want directly? like, I am now on 4.1 & if I flash 4.2.2 based rom will it work? or I have to upgrade into latest os first then flash any custom rom I want?
[Micromax A116] freakydev8:
You can't install a custom recovery without root access. Once you rooted you can flash any compatible rom . It does not matter if you using 4.1 or 4.2 because a whole new rom will be flashed on your phone.

[Micromax A116] rajneeshk:
Custom recovery can be installed via sp tool without rooting and without any data loss. In sp tool uncheck everything and in recovery select custm recovery path. You are done.

Yes you can flash any ROM then directly via recovery.
[Micromax A116] freakydev8:
Made a mistake. Got confused between rooting procedure and cwm procedure
[Micromax A116] bhabesh:
I think u should upgrade to 4.2 first then try custom rom. Otherwise how r u gonna get TP upgrade?
[Micromax A116] rabin69x:
can it be done by flashable zip of stock 4.2.1?
[Micromax A116] bhabesh:
Sptool is better option to upgrade rather than flashing from recovery. Better ask [MENTION=5425153]rajneeshk[/MENTION] he is a pro
[Micromax A116] rajneeshk:
For TP upgrade you should go with SP tool. Be careful as i told in my previous post.

if I flash any custom rom will it work?
[Micromax A116] rajneeshk:
A116i shouldn't be a problem. Latest firmware for A116 and A116i are same. If you still want to change you need to root and edit build.prop.

You can flash lenevo camera for better quality ( search on xda).

Yes custom rom will work. Ensure to install custom recovery.

Calendar- Stock

I used to use power amp all the time but I really hate the new design and how clunky it feels compared to the old design. The stock player also looks good and works really well.

For the other things I use stock because it's nice having the ability to sync with my Google account and have everything in one place. I say avoid 3rd party apps unless you really aren't happy with what stock offers. Simplicity really makes everything easier.

But You should pay for that...

google play calendar is good...

MortPlayer is (for me) the best free Music player on Google Play ;)

[Motorola Atrix HD] mauchito:
Hi, which are the Unique Power Saving Functions? Is just one on/off switch or does it have more settings? I will be trying this ROM this week, but just wanted to know...

Edit: Just installed it and is just a on/off switch. What does it does? Also I noticed a bug in lockscreen, when you lock it, it still shows the navigation bar. Buttons doesn't do anything but they are there. Also there is some chinese apps.

Other than that, is pretty similar to another CM based ROMs. If the battery saving feature really works, this will be my daily driver without a doubt.
[Motorola Atrix HD] Ryuinferno:
Yes, it looks like vanilla Android, but have you explored the features? Not all ROMs have those...;)...and it's not ported but compiled from source, I've posted lots of similar threads...of course I've read the rules, thanks for reminding though...:)

I've started posting threads across the forums to spread the work of the team, not for "Thanks" hunting...why so negative without further testing on the project we spent countless on? :( Nightly builds, OTA updates and download server, we wouldn't spend so much effort if it is just a rip off and isn't something to be proud of...;)

Well the ROM is from China right? The apps were targeted at the users over there...just go to Settings->Apps and disable them...the power saver? Try tapping on the left of the toggle...;)...well about looking the same, there are actually a lot of things not implemented by others, including CM...I will spend some time on explaining this time then:

1. Incremental updates: Remember Cyandelta? Well we have incremental updates by default, each update is around 15++MB

2. Speed dialing in dialer

3. Upload+download speeds in status bar

4. Lift phone to call

5. Delay SMS sending

6. Auto stop timer in Apollo

And lots more...not all are described in the first post and screenshots...;)

About the navbar issue, working fine here?
[Motorola Atrix HD] clockcycle:
Well I installed, seem'd interesting, lots of features to play with. But in less than 15min use, I already had 3% signal loss, which means it has the same radio crashing as CM11. Which seems a shame, would have like to use it more, but can't count on it as my daily driver.
[Motorola Atrix HD] Ryuinferno:
Sorry to hear about that, since it's device specific, can't do anything without a device...:(...hope you'll be back some time in the future...:)
