Moto E discussion thread

[mohit9206]

Guys i have read that if you discharge the batteries of Moto E and G completely then the supplied charger is not capable of supplying enough charge to bring the phone back to life.Has anyone had a first hand experience of this issue ? Due to this fear i have refrained from completely discharging my Moto E.I have read lots of reports of people facing this issue.

I have done it with moto E no issue so far.If you completely discharge your battery then if you try to switch on phone it will show a plug with white background you just need to plugin your phone to charger after some time it will allow you to switch your phone.

Facing battery life issue. When the phone was new i was getting very good battery life ie about 8hrs of screen on time but since last few weeks battery life has taken a nosedive and now getting only about 5hrs of screen on time without any change in usage pattern.
So basically battery life went from great to average. Tried cleaning cache, disabling background apps, battery saving apps etc but still no improvements. Is anyone else facing similar issue?

I am getting 4 to 5 hrs of screen on time while playing clash of clan for 1hrs and 2hrs of tv show watching.Which video player you are using?

Backup this file on your PC somewhere, "msgstore.db.crypt8" located in location, "/SDCard/WhatsApp/Databases".

By default whatsapp makes a backup of messages at morning 4 am on its own. But if you want to take a manual backup you can do so from within whatsapp settings. Then copy the updated .crypt8 file.
When you install whatsapp again on the same or some other device you just need to make sure you keep this .crypt8 file on that location before you configure whatsapp, and it will pickup old messages.

When will the Moto E get Lollipop update? Looking forward to it for the battery life improvements.

 

[mohit9206]

Anyone tried Lollipop on their Moto E? Motorola has started soak test for Lollipop for Moto E in India. So if anyone has updated to Lollipop then please share your experience.
I have yet to update because am scared to as so many complaints online for other models from various brands about how Lollipop ****ed up their phones.

So second gen moto e launched today.

They've lost it by pricing it $149.

Lenovo A6000 would be a better & cheaper choice and Yureka is obviously miles better at that price.

That one is for SD 410 version there will be a SD 200 variant for 112$

Still not worth it. Redmi 1s is there for 6k not to mention Lenovo A6000 with sd410 costs 7k (~= 113$)

Redmi 1S is much better in 6k with awesome camera. Havn't seen lenovo A6000 so can't comment.

 

[lywyre]

The only issue I see with A6000 is the absence of Corning/Asahi glass.

Redmi refresh is what I am waiting for. Not a big fan of Lenovo so I have never checked out A6000.
