Moto G discussion thread

Experiencing some bugs on moto g 1st gen with lollipop. Sometimes the screen wouldn't respond to touch and have to wait till the battery runs out. The dictionary feature oof KitKat was better. The stock home screen looks almost same as KitKat and doesn't feel as good as moto x 2nd gen lollipop. Not so happy about this.

If you could turn the screen on/off using the power button, then you could restart the mobile by long pressing the power button (10-15 seconds)

Today i woke up to see my Moto G (lollipop) battery at 1%. I put it on charge and i see now after an hour and it still shows 1%. If i remove the charger, it shows the battery low notification. But whilst connected to the charger, it shows as charging but it remains at 1 % and not increasing.

Could someone please help me with this asap.

Try to turn off the phone and then charge. Turn on phone after an hour or so.

Updates roll out in sequence, not all together to everyone. You ca either wait or install Lollipop yourself from XDA.

I cannot say about the exact reason. You can install the update yourself. Look in XDA forums.

I am hoping for 5.1 to fix the weird bugs that are on moto g.

if you have 1st gen, install Motorola Update Services. If 2nd gen, better get the zip and flash it manually.

Settings -> security/lockscreen -> screen lock. And remove it. IMO using these apps will drain battery. I tried some app lock which gave me 1000s of wakelocks

Applock might result in bad battery.

bad bttery means what-battery drain?

 

[thetechfreak]

^^ Yeah, battery will get discahrged very quickly and it won't perform well.

I just recently updated to Lollipop and I am having issues with enabling mobile data. After hearing many users complain about 5.0, I decided to wait and stick with KitKat for now. But somehow (maybe I pressed the update button without knowing it) my Moto G 1st Gen got updated with Lollipop. Now I have a big headache connecting to the internet via 3G. Even in KitKat I had problems with connecting to 3G internet sometimes. But only sometimes. Even in those rare occasions, I would simply turn on Airplane mode. Once I turn it off again, the 3G connection will be active. But in Lollipop no matter what I do, I just can't enable mobile data. Anyone else facing this issue? What's the fix?

My Moto G2 on Lollipop has began to hang like crazy. Even a restart doesn't seem to help much. Is there a solution for this ?

Root it and install lollipop memory leak fix from xposed. I was also experiencing similar issue and now it is butter fluid.
