Guys, the system update got paused when the net connection went bonkers. Now, there's nothing in the notification center and when I try to update through Settings, it's saying the software is up to date.

I cleared the data of Moto Contextual Services many times, but same thing. Also used Device Manager from PC, to no avail. Any workarounds?

Lollipop was only under testing phase. Rollout has begun only yesterday. You should get the update soon. You can always install the update manually though.

Yes, I got the update yesterday. It wasn't the soak test.

And where can I download the official ROM? Link please?

open device manager and uninstall whichever driver is showing a yellow exclamation mark.

cant see any yellow mark in the device manager or the programmes and features

then in the device manager itself, uninstall all motorola drivers and then reconnect the phone in MTP mode. It should start the driver installation again.

remove all motorola software and try this: Moto G USB Drivers.

read somewhere that if you are still on XP you'll need Media Player 11 for MTP to work.

Install ES File Explorer and use it to transfer files to-and-from the pc over wifi network.
Also, post a screenshot of device manager.

I just recently updated to lollipop, how do you change the white background in the a apps menu to a transparent one?

I also discovered that there is a hidden flappy birds clone game in it. Very hard..

Guys, i got my Moto G delivered a cpl a hrs ago. As soon as i turned it on, i got a system update notification. It is downloading extremely slowly inspite of having a 8mbps broadband connection. Been over an hour and just about closing in on 100 mb. I haven't checked out the other features yet, as i m updating to lolipop on first boot.

Just one query, is the power and volume rocker button slightly loosely fitted on all Moto G's ?

Edit : I am charging the phone as it downloads. But i dont see the LED turned on while charging. Is it normal ?

How to delete multiple contacts in lollipop ? I have landed up importing my contacts a couple of times and i am now having a lot of duplicate contacts. Is deleting one by one the only option ? or is there any other way ?
