Moto Assist for 2015 Moto G?... - Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, two things. Is the re a way to make it work?
Why is it now available for us in the playstore?....
And maybe you know other apps with same functionality...

Can you reformulate the question?
What are you asking to make it work?

The OP stated his problem clearly or at least it was to me.
The app shows as unavailable for the Moto 3rd Gen so he probalby want's to know how he can make the app work or how to install the app. He is also asking if three is another app that will perform the same duties as Moto Assist.
I would imagine that the only way it would work is by having someone provide a link to the app and sideload it if that would even work.

"is the re a"
That was the unclear part. But of course im an idiot and didn't read the title correctly.
Sorry op

I don't know which version of moto g3 are you guys taking about, but in my xt1550(Indian version) moto assist came pre-installed!

Moto Assist for the US version XT1540 is unavailable in Play. Motorola included a replacement app called Moto but it lacks driving mode among other things.

The moto app installed on my XT1541 doesn't have driving mode. Got sleeping, meetings and places.

Confused !!

Moto Assist was a little different, it offered driving mode so your texts could be read to you. It looked different also,. It was the default in the Moto 2nd gen.

Any chance of getting Moto Assist with VOICE functionality like MOTO - X on Moto g3?
i liked the Moto assist performing voice assistance in the Moto x 2015, i had checked is that App similar to Moto G 3 assist (alias Moto app)
they both do look alike , but Moto x has 4 features in it unlike moto g ,which is having only 3 as shown below ..
so my question is .. is there any way to get that Voice functionality in our moto G2015 ??
Note: i got the file moto voice : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.motorola.audiomonitor&hl=en
can this be ported , made available for moto g3 ?

Moto Voice.. is it the real one??
out of curiosity , today i tried to install Moto voice from google play.. but it said incomaptiable device
as it says "moto display" is also incompatiable to MOTO G 2015, i ignored it .. i downloded the file from an external source.. [http://www.558app.com/android/moto-voice-v2015-apk.html]
it turned out to be a bigfile, the name was : TOUCHLESS CONTROL when i was installing, finally i opened my Moto app and saw this new thing Voice - which was missing earlier..
but when i am opening it .. its giving me an error any help ??

two moto G , the same but different

Can anyone shed some light on some of the weirdness I find on my moto G
I bought two moto G.
One moto G , the white color on the screen is more pure white
the second moto G, the white color on the screen is more off white... it is very slight .I don't think I can capture the difference on camera. but when you see it. you can tell one is more white than the other.
second weird difference
on one of the moto G, google now hot word is "ok google"
on the second moto G, google now hot word is just "google"
I am puzzled about this..
any one know??
I compare the version of OS, kernel, and detail of the phone. both are the same.
This is the International Moto G , 8 GB
oh what do you know. I can capture the different with my playbook camera.. here it is

sorry double p ost
That is weird and seems like it's outside the range of normal production deviations. I don't think most people have their Moto Gs yet to compare, maybe it was one batch, or maybe it was an entire assembly line.
One has an outdated google now for sure. The one without the "ok google" has an outdated version. And contact google ASAP. They should replace the off-white version. Its a digitiser issue.
Sent from my GT-I9152 using Tapatalk 4
"OK Google" vanishes after a few uses.
Google do not sell the Moto G.
The digitizer has nothing to do with the colour of the screen.
Both screens can have differente manufacturers... we dont know.
But it can also be a defective one.

[Q] 'Messaging' App

I'm looking to sideload the sms app that i've had with two previous android phones. After getting my new N5 yesterday, it seems the stock 'messaging' app has been replaced in favor of hangouts. New to hangouts, but after about a day, i can say f-that. I know other sms apps are out there, but i really just want the one I've had for years. I promise I've used the search feature, please don't fault me if this info is out there.

There you new app may show up, so, you can set it as default.
Btw, your post was not too clear but is that what you mean?

The problem is that the messaging app wasn't installed. My N5 was bought from the play store jsut this week. Maybe it is installed on the t-mobile or sprint variants? Has anyone pulled that apk and posted it anywhere? My wife just got an unlocked moto x and it has it.

this is the stock MMS.apk you see in that picture
Thanks, I see it's not totally the stock messaging app, but I will give it a try. It mentions a lack of bloat, but new useful features. Anyone know what additional features are that they've added?

:laugh: Thanks mate. It works with me.

Is it really impossible to pick a custom ringtone in 4.4?

Hello
I have a new moto g and I can't find where/how to pick a custom ringtone from my mp3 files, it was possible easily on my previous Nokia c5 with symbian
Am I missing some setting somewhere to enable this?
Thanks.
Sent from my Moto G (XT1032) using Tapatalk.
Hello, most devices don't have an option for the said function. In this case, I don't have any option on my Nexus 5 either.
I have a music player installed called "NexMusic" its simple, fast, feature full. And the best thing is that you can set custom mp3 ringtones just by touching and holding down on the desired music file.
Hopefully this may be a way around the ringtone option.

Simply search "NexMusic" on the PlayStore, its free.
Thank you very much I'll try it out.

Yeah, actually most music player will allow you to do that. So just pick the one you like and the chances are high that it can place any soundfile as ringtone of your phone.

Thanks been using the stock music player from Google.
Does Poweramp has this option too?
Sent from my Moto G (XT1032) using Tapatalk.
You can, you just need a 3rd party file manager. You can change notification sounds and alarm ringtone as well.
Once you get a file manager, it will offer you Media Storage and File Manager when you click on change ringtone

Wow that's absolutely true, just installed the first file explorer from the market and it allowed me use it to select an mp3 file from my music folder.
Thanks a lot.

Awesome news!

http://googleblog.blogspot.nl/2015/04/android-wear-wear-what-you-want-get.html
Awesome news! Wifi support, drawing emoji's, et cetera! I'm excited!
I'm curious. Does the moto 360 have a wifi antannae? Also every article I've read gave a different date of release. Some said Friday, others said in next few weeks, while a few said today
I suppose the link you provided is likely the more reliable one. But still I want it now
The Moto 360 will support wifi! Motorola blogged about it somewhere. Just as all the others except for the G watch
Why not the G Watch with the same Snapdragon 400 as the other watches? (except the moto)
I found it in a thread somewhere, that was the only difference. The chip supports it, but the hardware antenna isn't there. Unfortunately I can't seem to find the thread again
They can tell us the phone and watch do not necessarily need to be tethered by bluetooth, they will enable WiFi.
They will allow stand alone apps.
Two questions when ?
Next month or in 6 months ?
And
How will it effect battery life.
No Android Wear Smart Watch I seen, it that great with battery life.

The Moto 360 does have Wifi and the new update will support it. Here's the info, straight from Motorola: http://motorola-blog.blogspot.kr/2015/04/moto-360-its-time-for-update.html?linkId=13654909

I think only the LG G watch doesnt have Wifi (of all the wear based watches)
I just received a android wear app update which include wifi syncing options and the most awesome change - Polish language!

Can you post pictures of the WiFi settings?? Also, you have the G watch R? I though the LG Urbane was suppose to get it first.
Sent from my SM-N910V using XDA Free mobile app
Here you go:
In English:
''Enable synchronization with cloud to synchronize data from phone and watch through Wifi"
It's only app on phone update. Like google said LG Urbane will get firmware update first.
But keep in mind that Urbane have the same harware as G Watch R so maybe delay will be very short
Now If only we could get support for google voice call notifications and sending sms through a google voice #
I've got great information for polish users of Android Wear - new update will give us a polish language firmware for our watches, at last! Look at the very begining of this video: https://youtu.be/uKlvl6Wrch4

Thank you. But I want to know how can you play with an APK
I am learning to develop Android Apps , but I don't understand how you guys can do such kind of modification to an APK. I really appreciate your work. There are many gallery apps but all they are either having ads or very slow. Can you tell me how to modify an apk(because you do not have source files of the apk so how is that possible )
Try soon..thx
Thank you for this
Moto z play , it's good !it works very well,i like this .thank you !
I can't edit photos on the Moto Z Play. The edit options are blank.
Thanks for the app.
Indeed the edit options don't work, but I still use this app as my main gallery - I use snapseed anyway.
Finally no more crash on boot nexus 5 dirty unicorns 11...
thanx
PS. edit photo don't work... but nevermind thanx
Hi.
Something is not working on my Moto G 2015. It doesn't delete files that are located in my MicroSD. I gave it all permissions as it's intended, but when I delete pictures directly from the gallery, it doesn't in my albums anymore as it should be, but the files are still there, in the SD card, so when I reboot the phone or just close the app and open it again, the pictures are shown again in the albums.
If someone knows how to fix it, I'll be grateful.
Thanks!
tnQ u Soo muchhh:good:
Thank you Soo much.!! I needed this app for the Droid Z Force.!! #LifeSaver~!
Thank you! I have upgraded from the Moto G 4G (1st gen.) to a Wileyfox Swift 2+ and was surprised by the lack of edit options in their gallery app and the Google Photos app (no mirror images or draw options). This app works perfectly on it, I don't know if your adding devices tested by users rather than you to the list but you can add the Swift 2+ to it if you want.
@TigerCourage
Great work dude! Can you please do XDA a favour and port Moto Camera for all devices too?
Regards
PoseidonKing
Thanks.. will try on my s8
Nice work, would be happy if you provide moto camera too
Working great on my S8+. Thanks!
Works on Samsung j7 prex Boost mobile version sm-j724
Works well on one plus 3 (edit buttons included). Good work
Can not install it on Htc 10,wont hit install button,maybe support for arm64 is missing,not sure...
Helped a lot!
was missing this gallery since my last Moto g4, glad to have it again in my Oneplus 3t. Thank you so much :*

It seems to be gleechy sometimes, say whenever I want get back from any folder it takes time, and it shows raw files preview too which means its will obviously make the app somewhere slow. It is already very good but need some attention on final icing. Thanks for such wonderful app.
