Moto Freaks Out? - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone have a problem when randomly you go to the home or app screen and everything gets blocky and random? On the Boost Mobile version if that helps, will have a screenshot uploaded. Will happen 1-2x a day, and goes away with a restart or randomly.
Everything is stock, not even rooted. She's a virgin.

Why is she/he still virgin dude.

Yesterday, after I took 2-3 photos, I closed the camera app, and it was something similar to your screenshot. I turn off the phone then on, and everything is fine now. I must do a factory reset but I'm too lazy to search a good backup app...

It happened to me and I just kill the launcher, then everything goes back tp normal.
Mine is fully stock.

Also here with ROM stock, after using a TV app.
Juste switched off the phone and it corrected the problem.

To quickly fix this just open play store and exit it. No restart needed.

I have experienced the same on my mine. Here I'd the screen grab displaying the blocks from the YouTube icon.

To avoid the issues I'm currently experiencing. Moto has really low levels of bloatware, so I didn't see a need to install anything extra. I will try another launcher and see if this persists.

Mytouch 4g slide keeps freezing

Hey all, i don't know if there's already a thread about this but i did a quick search and didn't really find one about my problem.
Anyways, my girlfriend has a mytouch 4g slide and it keeps freezing on her. If she's in a call, she can stay in the call but won't be able to hang up or use the screen in any way until a restart. She is completely stock. This is the second mytouch for her with the same problem. Any ideas as to why this is happening?

Well when I was stock, I never had any problems like this. I have heard about people having screen freezes with regards to the call screen, however. It could easily be one of the apps that she downloaded. It might be worth it to try a factory reset if the problem is persistent. Not to mention that sounds like a pretty annoying issue.
Yeah, we tried a factory reset before and it didn't work.

Huh, I talked to her more about this issue and it seems that it only freezes during a call. She didn't realize it until I asked her specifically about it. So any way to fix this issue.

If a factory reset doesn't solve your problem, you have two options:
Root and install a custom rom (could be a stock rom problem, even though it shouldn't be)
Get it replaced under warranty
is the device completely frozen, or can she get the screen to turn on by pressing the trackpad or something? come to think of it, the sensor doesn't seem to work perfectly on my device, so sometimes when i want to hang up a call, i need to press the trackpad to get the screen to turn on. i have never had the device become totally unresponsive tho.
Well, she says the screen is on but nothing happens when she taps it. The only way so far to get her phone to work again is a battery pull.
This is already a warranty replaced phone for the same problem. I would root her phone, but she is in San Francisco and I'm not. She is also not very tech savvy so she can't do it herself.

Have her try using GO! Dailer/Contacts. I know this issue is based within the Call Out screen. But try using GO! It can also an out of Ram issue. On stock, the more widgets you use. The worse the phone gets. You'll see that HTC Logo all the time. My Uncle has this phone, and he's 100% stock. He gets freezes, and the HTC Logo screen after every app. Since the phone has the highest priority in a call, in can be using to much RAM. Then the phones doing a Rosie reboot with out the HTC scrreen.
If she wants to. Install Zeam Launcher. She won't have any Sense widgets. But it'll free up about 120Mb of Ram. Then place the call, and see if it lags.

After a warranty replacement for my old phone, I haven't had time to fight rooting and have been experiencing similar issues... Memory mgmt seems to be cause. Ive removed some apps and it has reduced issues.
On initial use of phone, I reset it, inserted a full battery and followed the general "let it set" rules for a fresh rom install. At first, all was great, everything worked perfect. But as I added apps, it grew less stable. Also seeing phone freeze when rebooting into recovery... Eek. Tried multiple sd cards, batteries, to no avail.
Gonna call for another replacement. Ugh. Wrty is up in a couple months...

I've had a couple of freezes happen to me during phone calls and I realize what the problem was. It was apps automatically downloading in the background from the Play Store. If an auto update for apps is happening and I receive a phone call at the same time my phone will become unresponsive for a few minutes.

So this GO! Dialer, would it help with the freezing issue? I don't see how using another app would help with the memory issue. Does Zeam Launcher require root?

g2x Overheating, restarting, and failing...

Hi,
I have got a LG optimus 2x from Windmobile - Canada (G2x), and I have Hellsfire 2.3 installed on it.
I have been using the same ROM for about 4 months, but lately I have noticed that the cell gets warm at times, specially when charging, some times it gets hot when it's supposed to be OFF. When this happens the phone won't even turn on, I have to remove the battery manually and then put it back in to get it to turn on. (This has been happening for a while)
Anyways, skipping to this week. My phone is randomly restarting during calls. One of the random restarts made me lose some of my apps. The icons for some of my apps are messed up (they show as some default android icon), and when I try to open them it tells me that they are not installed. The app for the camera is also not working. It's similar to when you upgrade windows and all the registry gets lost; therefore you are forced to re-install all of your programs.
This is driving me crazy. Has anyone had this problem before?
Any kind of help is appreciated,
Thanks.

Yep, the exact same happened to me on Hellfire 2.3. I think a data wipe/factory reset will fix this issue but I just went to a different rom as Hellfire rom just didn't seem to like my G2X.

You would only lose things like apps, other stuff like texts and call logs can be backed up and restored on your new ROM, it is possible to back up app data with titanium backup but its not too recommended because it can cause some problems on the new ROM. Things saved on internal SD like pics and download aren't touched.
Hope this helped

Phone freezes and lag issues??

Sorry I am a long time reader on the forums and obviously just joined the site so I could start being a part of the community, anyways hello everyone and on to my question.
I have the ultra and thanks to the flawless work of jcase I ran the root perm method. Everything seemed to be nice and fine, recently however I have noticed that my phone goes through odd "freezes" either when trying to slide the status bar down to see notifications (will slide down and I get no response, also get no response afterwords if I try to open an app) a reboot usually takes care of the issue however and I'm back to normal. Also have noticed from co-workers that when my phone does this freeze method, I also cannot get calls or txts from anyone. was just curious if anyone had also experienced this since rooting? Would a flash to stock and root again be in my future?

I've never had a phone that doesn't have occasional glitches. Just force a reboot (hold both power button & volume up key).

Yeah that's normally the route I've been going. As for now I have uninstalled closed framework and modules as I was noticing a few errors when running gravity box. Since uninstalling I haven't noticed any issues. Maybe xposed was just having fun toying with me. Now that there's safe strap and themer available I'm just going to leave that uninstalled thanks for the heads up and tip

Lg Optimus f3 Notification bar problem

Hey y'all,
I have an Optimus f3 and I am having some issues with the notification bar flickering as if it was being pulled down rapidly. I have searched countless places (mainly Google) and I have come up with nothing on anything even remotely close to my problem.
Thanks in advance if you can help
Sent from my SGH-M919 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I'm having a problem that isn't quite similar, but may prove relevant. Also on a f3.
My notification bar completely disappeared, and and has reappeared for around four to six hours at a time once now, for no apparent reason. Some other things. 1. Wallpaper switches between my selected and stock/default.
2. com.android.systemui stopped a few times.
3. Can't access recent apps via long press of home hardware button.
4. Sporadic notification, sometimes they work, others not. However, system ones like low battery never do.
5. Is factory resistant.
I hope maybe these issues could help with yours.

Dude, Need Not Worry That's Normal. Just Factory Rest Your Device and It Will All Work Fine.
Wish it was that easy. I did a factory reset and it still does it. I did a hard reset too lol

If you're still having this problem, you could try following the unbrick guide (flashing LG's ROM in emergency mode). You may want to install recovery and wipe what you can first to fully clear out as much as possible, as the unbrick method doesn't actually wipe your user data (which may be part of the problem).

Real Racing 3 force closing

Hey guys! I have dual sim moto g xt1033.Since the LeMans update Real Racing 3 is force closing so many times. Especially when I click on servicing. I just want to know if anyone else is facing similar problem. I have not tested the latest update released just now. So if anyone else is facing the same problem let me know.
Edit : I need to reboot whenever it fcs on clicking servicing.
My RR3 FC some times randomly after that LeMans Update too.. But whenever it starts doing it, I and the majority of the background tasks, or I do a system reboot, and it goes back to normal.
But I also changed my system runtime to ART too, days prior the LeMans update. And I noticed some FCs after I've done it. My game runs better with ART anyway!

I updated to 4.4.4 and now whenever I click on servicing it just force closes even after rebbot. Anyone else facing this problem on 4.4.4.On 4.4.2 the problem used to be solved by rebooting. But now it always force closing. Need help
I found a work around for NFS might work with Real Racing..
Go into what ever is making your app force close and quickly press either home or recents then go back into the app. That what I have to do to open NFS
