charge phone to 100% before first start.. then everytime try to charge when battery is at 15%-25% to around 97% and thats it.. thats the best way to keep battery healthy (in my opinion)

About to purchase Moto G. Question.

Hi. I'm new and I hope you can help me.
My Moto G is about to arrive and I was wondering what's the first thing I should do with it? Should I charge it right out of the box? Should I turn it on and then charge? How long should the first charge be?
Also, I have read this phone has alot of problems with charging, especially when the battery gets to 0%. What are your suggestions to prevent these problems (such as the phone not turning on/charging, etc)?
Thanks in advance.
Just take it out of the box and use it like you have it for months. No special care needed.
The battery drop problem occurs to some users due to unknown reasons, possibly coz of use of noisy/bad charges or improper charge via computer usb port.

OMGoodness..Sir..
Certainly, Moto recommends a full charge before using the device, like everyone else does..but..consider the battery is at a low activity state, and charge at least to 50%..because you'll need it for initial setup..its just a precaution..you certainly can wait for a good charge on the device..boot to stock settings..charge..then proceed..
Everyone has opinions on this matter..but..boot, charge..surely one CAN wait that long, for a 50% charge..LOL
I own (1) XT1028 and (2) XT1045's and have no trouble with battery issues..its all in how you maintain the charge..A backup, external battery that is OTG USB is nice to have with you at all times, just incase..
The way we treat/maintain the device battery, is the life of that battery..
Anyhow..you will certainly be pleased with your new Moto G..

Battery-wise since Li-Ion it isn't better to perform full cycles, in fact, the most healthy thing for a Lithium based battery is to keep it between 40% and 80% all the time, and to store it at 40-60% charge.
That full cycle and stuff are useful for other kinds of batteries, but on Lithium you there's little you can do as the battery isn't new when you buy the device (they charge it and let it go 40-60% charge to store it for retail since it is the best for lithium). It is actually bad for the battery to go over 85% charge as it increases the chance to get undesired reactions in the cells that degrade the capacity. I'm impressed at how manufacturers confuse people with weird battery myths in their user manuals...

[Completed] Battery Issues in Moto G 2ng generation

I bought a new Moto G 2nd gen last week, the average battery backup with use is around 15-18 hours with use and around 1.5-2days without use. First of all is this battery backup decent? ( I have used HTC Explorer earlier which gave me a 3 day battery backup) anyhow, when i play games like shadow fight, i can see significant battery drain. Is there some thing to worry about?
Thanks in advance.

Question is, what type of batteries these are? are those safe for smartphone? have i made a wrong or risky decision ??
another Question is from this link : http://www.aliexpress.com/item/2x-1..._77_91_80,searchweb201644_5,searchweb201560_9

Motorola Moto G 1st Gen battery model is ED30 with 2070 mAh power.
Motorola Google Nexus 6 battery model is EZ30 with 3025 mAh.
Connectors on both batteries look same.
So you can try using EZ30 battery in place of ED30 if connectors work and battery fits ok inside moto g 1st gen.
If this combination works then you are good to go with that awesome compact device-- Moto G 1st Gen.

Moto Z Force Droid on Canadian network and battery problem

Hi everyone:
I'm in the midst of repairing my old phone, and so for now just bought a used Moto Z Force Droid. The phone does the same thing my old US-based Moto did in Canada, it pops up a box saying that I only have a balance of $.15 in my account. Is there any way to stop this?
Also, the battery on this used phone may be damaged. I figured at this age it should still have a lot of life left in it, but the first (very brief) session with it saw charge drop very quickly, esp. for a battery of this capacity. I will obviously charge it again fully to see that problem might improve. What are my chances that will improve the battery life?
However, is this likely going to be a phone I might have to send in to Moto to get the battery replaced? Obviously, I would prefer not to have to do that.
Thanks in advance.
