I brazil 5.1 update already available for moto x (1st gen).. soon available in india! AT LAST!!!! :bananana:

Official Lollipop should be real good. I manage to get very stable OS with Cyanogenmod 12. So I can only imagine how stable official ROM would be. Though won't be so feature rich. Will try the official ROM once it hits the interweb.

You asking this question makes me wonder, if Motorola have delayed the update yet again, or is it NOW that you are finally becoming impatient. :p

Anyway, the features on CM12 works fairly well. Ok Google hotword doesn't work from totally locked phone. But I didn't used to use it much anyway. Besides, it does work from launcher and doesn't have the delay of waking up the phone if used on totally locked phone. So not big deal.

Active display is replaced by Ambient display (first came with Nexus 6) which is more functional than the Active display that Moto X originally came up with. Watch a demo of it here: *www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TyhaOjME5g

Twist to open camera also works, although the camera app is now changed to some other app. But I use to like the default camera app which use to come with Stock ROM on Moto X.

Haven't done much to explore further, or to update the ROM in 3 weeks (updates come each night as nightlies). But the ROM I installed weeks ago, works pretty good, and with the goodness of Lollipop and features of Cyanogenmod.

Hmm! No am not impatient..m just too curious cos till Q1 of 2016 motorola would officially support MOTO x (1st gen) ... so after that I will follow you for sure :-D
an d wow! ambient display! thats great ... enjoy.. u can also download a software named like cyan delta or something which only update the exact update file to ur phone each night. So you can stay upgraded.
Enjoy ur moto x lollipop alone untill we get hands on it too :meditate:

Hi,

I am facing very high data usage by android OS on my moto x and can't seem to find the cause for it.
I have disabled auto sync on all google apps, as well as i have disabled back up option in backup and reset.
Disabled background data as well, but still android OS keeps using background date.

Anyone else had to face similar issue.

Regards

^^ Under Settings, goto Data Usage. It will show nice bifurcation of which app is using most of the data.
The app which consumers most data should be on top. Once you find out which app is using data you can disable background data for that app by tapping the app, and toggling, "Disable background data".

That's what, the app that shows most usage is Android OS.
And all usage is in background.
Last bill cycle it used more than 600 mb

I use AFWall+ Firewall, that gives options to selectively turn off/on data on each app. Though I think it needs root, since it modified iptables to do that.
If you are simply not able to find out what app is causing the data drain, you may root the device and use this app to control it. I understand though that, rooting maybe the last option for you.

If the usage is Android OS, I think its the Updates which are getting downloading. You may try to disable updating from settings.

Geek in making
SD 810? FK quotes SD 801 while GSMArena quotes SD 808. Looks like it's not confirmed yet.
Phonearena made a pretty sure statement that it is going to come with sd 810 improved variant which is already in new Z3+

Arrghh.. still news about update "Next week". Not exciting at all. I will believe when I really see the update notification. Although since I am on CM 12 I won't see it. So keep an eye on that notification. That's the only proof now. Can't believe we were thinking that we would get update HALF YEAR earlier.

Congrats for new phone. OPO seems to be a good phone. And I am sure I would prefer Moto X over OPO, not when I put them on my hand, rather when I pass over my hand over both of them. Since Moto X would be only one which would wake up. :D
