Each time I flash a new rom the market starts downloading all my apps automatically upon first market sign-in. Is there a way to stop this? I do not want it happening.
It seems if you skip the initial Google sign-in, and then add it after the initial process, you won't have all your apps downloaded. At least that is what has worked for me.
Is there any other way? I guess I can try this from now on and see how it works for me. Thanks

When you do the initial setup, you can uncheck the option for automatic restore... that will deffinately work....

You can also go into the my apps tab in the market and stop individual apps from downloading, you gotta be quick though.
ive never seen an option to turn off automatic restore in initial setup. other than in the settings menu AFTER the setup which doesnt help. also wasnt there some issue where if you didnt do the initial setup it cause problems on the g2x?
nevermind......

*Off the top of my head
After a factory reset, sign in, uncheck a box that allows backing up to your gmail account. If you read the description, it would tell you that the "backup" will be restored if you decide to get another phone. (This screen should be after the screen with two check boxes. Don't zoom through it, you just might miss it lol)
I uncheck that box every time, but it still attempts to reinstall things. I think it is because I once backed up when the feature was first available. I especially think that because it downloads apps I quit using when I still had my G1.

Come on...it's right under Progess
"Back to SDK Dialer. Old one was causing problems and did not keep call log."
So far install and settings are all flawless as far as I can tell. Quality job!
Sound > Volume bug is fixed
Lock Timer bug is fixed
Lock button background on both password and pin is fixed
The virtual keyboard still doesnt vibrate when vibrate is checked.
Also noticed a lot of the options that were in Call Settings are now no longer there.
I'm guessing this is due to the dialer being changed out?
Other than that, so far so good!
Is it necessary to wipe data & cache, then factory reset again even if already on fission?
Would just rather not....
Keep up the good work boys!
Also you might want to re-mention about not using themes.
my gps will not work. Weather and toggle widgets, weatherbug elite , and others will not find me. Tried a reboot didn't work. Came from the beta just flashed this this morning. Followed all directions wiped twice and the factory reset anyone else having this issue or do I need to reflash.
Ps I noticed swype works in this build great work guys
Check the gps toggle again. I've had gps work with three different apps.

GPS is working fine. It's coarse location (wireless networks) that's not working for me. If I turn off GPS, I can't get a location.
To do step 15 (Perform a Factory Reset through Android - Settings > Privacy > Factory Data Reset. Wiping Cache and Data from recovery is not enough.)
Am I suppose to reboot the system prior to this step?

It isn't possible unless you boot first, is what I figured.
"Do not perform any type of restore using any backup programs, yes this includes Titanium Pro and others!"
So this essentially renders Titanium Pro useless then? I can't restore any apps at any time from my sd card?
I followed every step precisely, including the backup and all of the cache/data clearing and android factory reset, and so far none of my market downloads have initiated. I'll get back to you on it if they do.
Not trying to *****, but I can't really give much feedback until I can see how well everything runs with my setup.

By default you'll be in USB mass storage mode if plugged in. If this is the case the market won't download. (Found this out the hard way.)
Fixed it by going to Charge-Only.
Id say u can backup/restore any market/downloaded non-system apps with titanium. Just don't restore items such as calender/email/sms/settings etc. most of these things are backed up and restored to your google account anyhow.
It would seem contact ringtones do not work
The market download on fresh boot takes awhile.. anywhere from 15min+ you can speed the process up by manual cancels and manual downloads.

So far so good, everything works great, even facebook and twitter sync the contacts list. Very great Job.
I think I may have set it up wrong like restore or something. But everytime I exited the play store it starts downloading EVERYTHING from the playstore that I've ever downloaded.
How can I stop this from happening?
Open the playstore, slide from the left edge of the screen, my apps, click stop.

This is just a guess, check Settings -> Backup & Restore and disable "automatic restore".
Also, when you first set up the phone, there is an option that asks if you would like to keep the phone backed up with google, which, if selected, also restores the phone from any back up google may previously hold.
Un check it, and it wont start downloading any apps when you first turn it on
definitely one of the irritating things about android. that backup/restore functionality sucks. I think i read they were going to revamp it?
Seems dumb that an app that is installed on another device or long removed from current device would install on a new device.
There's an easy fix for this. Go to the play store, swipe the left of the screen, click "My Apps", click the "All" tab. Any app in that list that isn't installed on your phone already will have an "X" in it's box. Click it and it'll ask if you want to remove the app for your apps list. That will stop it from auto downloading when you restore anything, as long as you don't download it again. Otherwise, you'd have to remove it again.
I had weird problems with Moto G3 touch screen.
1. Touch screen hangs when I restart phone and immediately swipe for notifications.
2. Sometimes home buttons are not working.
3. Sometimes whole touch screen doesn't work. Lock and unlock solves issue.
4. This is really weird. When home button is not working. I press and hold for a moment. Google App starts and all 3 buttons start working.
5. Notification window automatically flashes at regular interval without swiping.
I don't understand. I tried to debug.. It seems software issue not hardware issue. Please help.
Sounds like a lag problem... memory full or runaway app... I would first do a cache wipe, then check memory usage and make sure it isn't almost full, then look at storage because I have seen phones do this when internal storage is very limited.
Thanks for reply. One more problem added

I have done factory reset twice. I always keep enough space in phone. I cleanup everyday. Memory issue can never be problem for me. I dont keep unnecessary data. Now i have observed one more problem. Notification window automatically flashes at regular interval without doing anything.

Hmm... the whole notification bar is flashing at regular intervals? This really sounds like a software issue... Are you stock?
Honestly, at this point you need to absolutely verify hardware or software... I would factory default, and skip everything in setup, do not add Google account (important!) or restore anything, except login to WiFi. Does it still do it? If so, it is probably hardware and you need to RMA it to Moto, if it is OK then it's a software issue in one of your apps.
Any screen protector or case? Sometimes they are known to do weird things on this device, especially tempered glass ones.

Thanks for quick reply. I agree with you. It's software issue. It works fine in safe mode. Actual hardware is fine. May be I can try factory reset one more time without adding google account. Okay. I will get back to you once I do reset. Thnx buddy.

Add the Google account but don't restore apps... Setup all the Google services and test, if it's OK then start adding apps a few at a time. If it starts acting up its a system settings issue, factory reset and add Google account but don't restore any services at all and continue to setup like a new device.

Ok. Noted.
so I am an Idiot,
I had this issue with my headphones on my phone that google would pop up on random times to ask me wether I needed help from the voice support thingy.
So I looked up some video's on how to fix it and most videos said to just disable/delete the google app from my phone in App manager.
Everything went OK but when I wanted to go to my home screen, an error popped up saying there was no home screen...
I'm like; 'What the hell?!?'
so I turned off my device completely just to discover it wouldn't boot up correctly when I started it again.
now I am stuck with only my bootloader and I can't get back to factory mode, I did not root my device for any of your interests
pls help someone who knows something that might help me
Go to recovery when turning device on and from there do a factory reset?

So you did something in settings, or are you rooted and used some app to delete stuff? The answer to your problems really depends on what you did.
As a quick fix, log into your Google account via a PC and find Nova Launch (or some reputable launcher) and push it to the phone, once it installed press Home and it should ask you to select your Home screen and make sure to tick "Always".
The real problem here is you tried to a fix a problem that didn't fixing, just a quick settings change... A quick thread started here would have probably got the quick answer of turning of Google Assistance Anywhere to fix the problem without messing anything up.

Hi, I did not root my this device and did not delete the home screen from TWRP, just from the application manager. but it's more than just the home screen. I said I've tried to restart the device but when I was booting it up again, I only saw the Motorola logo loading for like 15 minutes.
It does connect to my PC and it recognizes the device, but I can't find it in File Explorer.
I might try to install Nova launcher, just to see if it works or not.
thanks for the reply though

If your not rooted you couldn't have deleted the app needed, only disabled it. Pull down the notification shade twice (or with 2 fingers) and tap the settings gear, scroll to Apps, then scroll to the bottom where disabled apps would be listed and re-enable everything and reboot. If that still doesn't work, push Nova, and as a last resort you can perform a factory reset.

Glad you got it working but I am a little confused...
Either way, it's like a wise man once said "It doesn't matter if it's duct tape or tie wraps, fixed is fixed". :highfive:
Just like it says. I am having a issues with some apps not saving after I set them. It happens when I shut the app down or reboot and I find that the phone is not doing what I set for the app. I open the app to check the settings and it has all been erased like new. If I keep the app open it runs all the settings correctly and saves them but as soon as I close the app or reboot it some of those apps default like it is a brand new app. Any thoughts?
Thanks

Man I hope someone can help us out with a lil insight. Thanks for the reply. I thought I might have screwed up a few things while setting up this new phone. I am on the latest build stable.
is it the permissions being cleared because its being "Paused". under the app's app info page there is a toggle Unused app settings--> Pause app activity if unused. make sure this is off.

No that doesn't appear to be that either. I checked all the apps that seem to be having this problem. Unfortunately that isn't it either. Thank you for the suggestion! IDK if a reflash without wiping would help?
I have never seen this or experienced it. Have you done "something" different? Tried to root, or install a ROM, or...???? If it keeps happening EVEN to native/default/system apps then I would recommend a factory reset with a low level cache wipe...if it can be done on this phone.

I would go for the reflash, and in the end, go for a clean flash.
I didn't experience this problem, but I did have an issue where every time I set a conversation as a priority, the second I left that screen, it reset back to default. I don't have the issue now, but I've also reflashed since then.
I have fixed it by wiping the affected apps data and then uninstalling them and readding the settings. Thanks guys!
