Hi. My girlfriend has had her Moto G 2015 (3rd gen) for almost a year now. The phone has been advertised as waterproof, which she has taken advantage of. She was using it in the pool last week to take pictures. It wasn't under for very long at all, and wasn't very deep at all. Ever since then, the battery led in the top speaker grill has been constantly on. Power on/off doesnt fix, and neither does clearing the cache partition. It's only supposed to be on when the battery is really low. Any ideas to fix?

If your phone is rooted, then download MOTO X Led Notification App from playstore and try to toggle it off from there.
The device isn't rooted, however k have considered rooting it just to see if that can fix it.

As it says in the title, If I connect my charger and shake/rotate it will turn the screen on, it doesn't happen when it's not charging
Here is a video for better understanding

So don't shake it???

Heh I've never felt the need to shake my phone while charging yet, and I've had mobiles since the 90's
Sent from my Moto G using XDA premium 4 mobile app
Lol, is not too much of shaking, if I just rotate or put it in the desk after having it in my hand it will turn the screen on too.
But the thing is solved tho, it's the charger that comes with the phone, managed to get another and it doesn't seem to happen anymore, and it kinda charges faster

My moto G brightness is really dim, to the pint where I can't see the screen. I first I thought there was a problem with my screen. So i brought a new one and replaced the old one, but its the same thing. But when i get the phone and put it near a lightbulb, I can see the home screen properly. I want to know if it is a internal problem like something to do with the motherboard or its just the system problem.
Dropped my Idol 3 4.7 into the toilet in a bar while on holiday in Spain last week, got it out quickly yet damage was done, the camera flash was flickering and the phone vibrated, wouldn't turn off (damn sealed units to hell) when i got it back to our villa, i put it in a bag of rice and after 3 days i charged it and it eventually sprang into life, all is well yet the camera flash is now constantly on yet dimmed, doesn't seem to affect the battery, also the headphone jack is broken now, no sound from it whatsoever, don't know what to do with it, time to upgrade i suppose. I still have my Lumia 735, yet i need my bust ticket app and it's not available on windows (surprise!) thinking of the new moto g, or moto e (£99 UK) anyone have advice?
Hi,
I have just purchased a brand new (supposedly) Moto G 2015 2GB Osprey from Amazon.
When the screen goes to sleep I can sometimes turn it on again using the power key but it is not consistent. I should be able to just press the power key once and the screen should turn on right?
I also notice that I will hear the default sound for screen on, but the screen remains black, I can then hear default touch sounds on the screen but the screen remains black. Pressing the power key a random number of times, sometimes 2,3 or 4 times and the screen will light up.
Do you guys think I should RMA to Amazon immediately?
I own the 1GB model since a year ago and I have never seen these faults.
Something is wrong with your phone, it isn't normal.
Maybe it's fake, a copy. Never seen that bugs before, never seen someone reporting
That's a issue with moto display. Try disabling it and report back
How do I disable Moto Display?
It's not Moto display... I use that regularly and have no issues on my G3 or XPE. And it isn't fake, Amazon isn't going to sell a fake Moto G3 (are their any, it hardly seems worth it for a knock-off to be made of a low $$ handset). If you want to disable Moto Display to test, it's in the Moto app, but it isn't the issue unless it's a conflict with some other app you have.
You likely have an app that is causing the issue. Standard troubleshooting applies here, wipe cache partition then reboot into safe mode and test, if the problem still exists then reset to factory defaults and test again without loading any apps, problem continues get the device replaced, if the problem goes away, slowly add your apps back in until you find the cause, then get rid of that app.

This is straight from the box, from first boot, only default apps installed. I have Factory reset 3 times, switched off Moto Display, no change in behavior.
I'll send it back to Amazon.
Dear all,
Greetings!
Problem :
Motorola Moto X 2nd gen (2014) switches off randomly. Battery has charge.
Background :
I bought a Moto X 2nd gen phone some 2.5 years back. It was working flawlessly. One fine day, I dropped the phone which resulted in a shattered screen glass (display and touch function is intact). I don't have a protective screen for the phone. So, I ordered a replacement screen (display + screen) from china and replace it (by myself). After that, I observed that the display is a LCD and not OLED and it ate more power and frequently switched off the phone even though there was full charge. Since it was draining the battery faster, I removed it and replace with the old shattered display. Even now, I face a weird random switch-off problem. The switching off is arbitrary. The logo comes and it switches-off. Does not boot up. But if it is in charge, it boots up to home screen and I can use the phone. But suddenly at some point it will switch off when opening any app or something. I guess when in charge, it does not switch off. But battery looks fine.
Solutions Tried :
I tried to factory-reset it. But it did not solve the problem.
Please guide me here. One more step I wanted to try is try re-flashing stock firmware.
If re-flashing may fix the problem, I will try it. But I need a help here - I found a website where stock ROMs are stored. But I am not sure which one to flash in my device! I have a XT1092 in India. Here is the website:
Sorry, I am not able to post links. (it is firmware(dot)centre/../XT1092)
Please guide me how can I proceed so that I can solve this problem!
Thanks,
Anish.
Bump!
Update:
Tried re-flashing (with and without bootloader unlock) Now, the screen boots up, and when it reaches the first welcome screen (where it set up the language) it suddenly switches off!
(after logos loading and all, it just flashes the welcome screen and dies)
Any help is greatly appreciated
