Am I at the right place???

Wow!
Is this the moto g forum? I take it it is, but it looks so quiet!
I just got my moto g today 100 quid and I know the phone is very new on the market, but I thought it would have been a lot busier here. Not even the usual nice xda phone specs header on the main page?
Either I am very lucky in getting on of these phones quick or no one is buying them lol.

Today is the first day the Moto G is sold in germany officially, in other countries the same.
So enjoy being one of the first users

The Forum JUST opened which would be why it is so quiet. Also, it is just now being released in several countries. I am excited for when it finally hits the USA and I will probably pick one up!

Too bad the 16GB is not available yet. Btw: here in the Netherlands they ask 199 EUR for 8GB ...

Patience young one.
This device has only just been released, you got to wait till January when the US get it available. The flood gates will open then.

Phones4u.. they are the only ones that I could find in the UK that have the phone in the shops...
The other shops just said Moto what? idiots lol.
Anyway because my partner had an orange sim pay as you go it reduced the price to 99,95!!! and free white cover (phone is black) looks gorgeous with the white back and black front
I was shocked it was the last shop I was going to try as there seemed no chance anyone would have it :/ and bingo, they had it.
Good luck.

The dual sim 16 GB is around U$350 on the Motorola website, but you can find it for U$300 in other stores.

No.
Says it's a presale. That means you won't get it until they go for sale in China, then you'll get the Chinese version for a higher cost.

now you can

Doesn't the Chinese version support different band frequencies that are incompatible with the rest of the world?

I saw the price even lower, here: http://www.xiaomidevice.com/xiaomi-mi4-5-0-inch-snapdragon-801-quad-core-3gb-smartphone-white.html , This site can be trusted?

http://www.honorbuy.com/53-xiaomi-mi4-4g-lte-2gb-smartphone-white.html
i saw this today and i also saw on youtube xda tv saying that mi4 will be available at $299 usdollar and i think its awsome price for the device

where is a safe place to get one from?

Amazon.com, where I got mine

I bought mine from ibuygou.com which is an official Xiaomi reseller and got great customer support from them

Realize this is old but both Oppomart and HonorBuy sell authentic devices.

I buy it yesterday for 200€ here: www.gearbest.com

O can conform oppomart is ok...just bought one for my wife from there

i also bought from gearbest... it is original (indian stock) but will probably have spyware on it. so flash the latest miui6 or 7 (developer) ROM ...BEFORE putting your passwords into it !

damn, just seen that thing with the Moto G 3rd gen in the URL. I hope it's not messed up! Will receive it the following day(s), so will come back with a feedback

it arrived, it's for the Moto X Play - still, it matches like 98% the backplate place. the original (black) one matches 100% and does not move at all. the one I bought from aliexpress moves half a millimeter here and there. overall looks good, though

Which colour did you get?

not THAT grippy, but not worse than the original (black) one that came with the phone.

I'm looking for a more "premium" back cover. It could be something like the leather one from Moto X (2014). Has anyone found one ?

Hi eXelero,
how long time has it taken to receive your backcover? Do you still life in Bukarest? I'm asking cause I'm living in Germany and alieexpress is in the US. Don't want to wait to long for my backcover

so, the product arrived in about 2,5-3 weeks (as usually). it was delivered from China directly by the "shop" that was selling on aliexpress.

I contacted them on twitter. They said they have no plans to sell the backs individually at present. A shame.
Might order one of these.

Yeah, I ordered one from AliExpress as well and am curious to see how well it fits in comparison to the original backplate.

For all those following this moto UK now have the backs up for sale. £20. Full range of colours.

Moto UK only ships to UK addresses for those from elsewhere in the world.
Don't get me wrong, props to doncoop for sharing this information
Be interesting to see if anyone has got both the Moto UK back & the Chinese aliexpress version in there hands for a side by side comparison.
Update: I just noticed that Amazon.com now has a source for Moto X Play battery door and they ship to Canada as well as USA. It's about $20 US inc shipping to Canada so I have ordered the Red one and will do a review once it has arrived.

Moto G4 Plus just launched! Development possibilities??

Hi there! Moto has just unveiled their Moto G4, G4 Plus and G4 Play. I'm really excited, and I don't want to wait for user reviews
So I guess I'll just trust Moto with their reputation, and order one today itself if I can :victory:
What do you guys think of the new model(s)? Do you think there will be much development going on? I'm prepared to wait for the fun to begin, but I just wanted your thoughts on the matter...
I know it is too early, and probably a dumb question but there are many variants (G4 Plus has 16GB, 32GB and 64GB variants)... Could that possibly hamper development scope? Also, I've mostly seen that such variants of mainstream models ('plus', 'play', etc) do not have as many options, as far as kernels and ROMs are concerned.

m also in same dilemaa..waiting for some recognized developers words on it @Vatsal is one of them.

me3

:fingers-crossed: Ordered today, Arriving tomorrow.

It won't be hard to port all development work to the plus and play, you just need someone who knows what they're doing. I wouldn't be worried.

I wouldn't worry, as with the previous Moto G's, I expect this one to get some developers on board that know what they're doing. I'll try to help, but can't help with the first steps (twrp, root) as I'm way to inexperienced. (Been battling with the build environment for the Tab S2 for moths, would prefer to work on the code itself )
I'm still in doubt between the G4 and the plus, the latter being released here around the 9th. (the G4 is due 1st of june)

Wow! Whoever said I was arguing? I was just pointing out that the question about whether it'd still be developer friendly under lenovo didn't make sense as it has been under lenovo for around two years
