I unlocked my moto g on the tesco network still on 4.3 and giffgaff worked great then i got the OTA too 4.4,
since then i lose network connection randomly i tried deleting all apns and starting fresh in case there was an issue,
but no luck figuring this out anyone else had this problem.
If i downgrade it works perfect unsure whats going on. :crying:
Not cool. Out of interest did you unlock via tesco themselves or code from eBay?
My dad is grabbing a phone from tesco tomorrow but uses giffgaff so I'll be interested to see how this turns out.

So here is my problem. I have the new Moto G I just recently bought from Amazon. It's the US GSM version. I thought the process would be easy, but to my surprise I cannot do this. Got the phone, popped my sim card in from my old LG Motion that I got from MetroPCS, entered the correct APN settings and when I go to save it and it disappears. The settings just *poof* gone. They are nonexistent. It only happens when I change the MCC or the MNC. It's default (with this sim card is 311 and 660) I am not able to change it to 310 and 260. It is driving me nuts! I have tried everything I could find, I've even talked to Motorola support and they cannot help me. I thought it might be a firmware problem with the phone, I updated it right away to 4.4.2. I'm starting to think this phone is broken. I pissed away 200 bucks for a tablet like device. >.< The phone is unlocked, but is useless at the moment. Can you guys please help me out? I ordered a new sim card thinking the sim card might be locked to the phone but I fear that may not be the case. But what research I did doesn't mention anything about a locked sim card. When I do put it in the Moto G, it looks for MetroPCS service, it displays my phone number, and when I enter in the information, without changing the MNC and the MCC I try to connect and select it as default and I get a "MetroPCS has no known provisioning website" I am really at a lost guys.

You must have a SIM card not that UCCID card that is in the motion. Call MPCS 1-888-8METRO8 from another phone not old phone not new phone. Get a rep. They will register new phone IMEI to that SIM card that you should have.

The post above me is correct. The card u put in your moto g is not a Sim card Although they look identical. Go to your local metro store and have them set one up for u. It cost me $25, and bam everything works great.

You can get a MCPS Sim online for $10.60 and activate it to your phone yourself for free.
Hello. First time posting in a forum. Many thanks to all who have guided me..
I had to give a friend my boostmobile moto g because I was so lost trying to get it back to working order. When he gave it back it worked in all ways except it now asks for a sim card. Its CDMA and never had a sim nor is there a spot for one. Does anyone know what went wrong and how to fix it. Its the 8gb and now has the cyanogenmod on it. I have no service on it now
Ok, so I unlocked bootloader through Motorola web site, rooted and used it from Wed through Sunday. Went to swap it over for wife and AT&T was closed so I cut down the SIM from her phone to use and it wouldn't read it. I thought no big deal and setup the phone on WiFi to go to the AT&T store in the morning and get a new SIM. Now it will not read any SIM card. This a known issue or a new problem, or did I somehow fry the SIM slot when I cut one down? Tried a reset with no luck, any help is appreciated.

Hey guy! Don't worry, i already had this problem. I just stock restored it and it started to work! Anyway, if it don't help you, do what my friend did: Install another ROM and after that install the Motorola's ROM.
Hope I helped you!
Sorry for the English...
I just got my new Moto G yesterday, and i got the sim for it today. It works perfectly, no problems except the fact that it says my phone number is unknown. Any way to fix this?
Programme your sim in a iPhone... Its a problem with android
