XT1033 lollipop bug? - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I'm currently using an Xt1033 with the Brazilian retail 5.0 soak test
I'm experiencing this weird bug where the navigation's black bar extends to almost half the screen. (See attached photos)
The problem is easily fixed by tapping the back button or recents, but I wanted to know if anyone else had this bug and were able to fit it.
Thanks

It isn't the keyboard that you are using?
Try switching to a different one.
Cheers!

I'm using the Google keyboard, and it doesn't seem to affect it as I've had the glitch even with Swiftkey

You mean the official flip shell isn't able to turn the screen off/on in CM 11/PA? I'm pretty sure it's kernel related and should be fairly simple for the dev the fix. Maybe try reporting it on the thread.

He means, the smart cover app (for covers without magnet to turn the screen on and off using proximity sensor) doesn´t work with the moto G and the moto g LTE
Because there is a restriction that prevents access to these sensors, actually it's sort of a bug and only the system user can access these.
Even things like Skype can't access them while you're incall.
Maybe as root you can control them, but the app needs to be using that method.
This one works very well on my Verizon XT1028 with a generic non-magnetic flip cover (stock 4.4.4, not rooted, bootloader locked):

Don't know if the problem may be specific to Paradoid or CM roms, however; but worth a try I guess.
I cannot give you a proper solution regarding your problem but I can tell you alternate way, which can be used to wake screen, there is a app named "Gravity Screen Pro - On/Off"

and it not only works on proximity sensor but you can use other sensor to work it and its not battery hungry, I also tested this on a phone without proximity sensor, works like a charm, free version of this app also available in market, hope it will resolve your issue

Watch ESPN app not working after recent update

Anyone else seeing this when they pull up the app? Hope it gets fixed before the World Cup.

I just updated my Xperia Z C6606 and after the update I have the exact problem. I believe they should be related. Audio works without a problem but the image is gray and it has 3 really small squares that show parts of the video stream. I have installed and uninstalled multiple times but I have the same issue. I did a factory reset this morning but problem continues. I have researched the problem but this post is the only thing I could find. Currently running Android 4.3.

[Q] Stock camera not focusing in 4.4.4

recently I notice that my camera wouldn't focus and I think it started happening after the latest update.
everything was working great before and never had an issue. any ideas?
The latest camera update our android update? Try clearing data and cache for the camera app. If that doesn't work try another camera app.
Edit: Typo

I meant I am using all the latest software.... All updates were installed.
I tried clearing the cache... Downgrading the camera app, installed various camera apps and same result.
I also did a factory reset.

...and the glass covering the lens is not smudged?
Glass is clean, very clean actually, never used the device without a case and the glass usually wouldn't touched any surfaces directly.

You could try downgrading to another version of android by flashing the stock image. If that doesn't work I think there may be a hardware issue.

I tried going back to 4.4.2 when I know it worked but it didn't work with the downgrade.
I called Google and they will send another device... Factory refurbished... I'm skeptical about that thou, should I be?

Download another camera app and see if you have the same issue. If you don't, then it's just the software and not a problem with the camera itself.
Hel already mentioned that he tried many camera apps all with the same result.
@op No, I think the new device will be just fine. Don't worry about it.

[Q] Google Play Store bug?

Since a week or two I am facing issues with downloading updating apps via play store. After clicking install or update the status bar just starts and application download does not start at all and it just keeps waiting. Sometimes it works NY canceling and restarting.
Is it just me or anyone else facing similar issues?
I have Moto G on Kitkat

[Q] Camera bug since Lollipop 5.1

Since I installed the 5.1 update on my Nexus 5 (no root) I've been having this bug on my camera app.
Every time I open the camera (whether it is the standard app, or for example inside the WhatsApp app) the brightness is just extremely low. The only way to fix this is taking a picture, close the app and open again. Brightness is back to normal and everything is fine.
A while later its just the same story all over again.
Any solutions or suggestions?
Am I the only one with this problem BTW?
How did you update to 5.1? Try to flash the factory images if you didn't do it before.
If it's a Google bug then it will might be fixed with 5.1.1 which is around the corner
Same issue for me on Nexus 4. Flashed factory images.
