Moto G userlist - Moto G General

Hi guys so i have created a userlist database spreadsheet on google drive in which we can fill in details...
It will take just a min to fill in your details. :fingers-crossed:
This will allow us to know :-
how many users have Moto g (in total around the world)
Country
what model they are using
Date of purchase
Carrier details
Rooted or not
ROM
Previous phone
This will allow us to post statistical results after we have enough data.
Suggestions are welcome!

{Since we all have a google account filling it wont be problem}
Please maintain the spreadsheet file, don't spoil it thanks :fingers-crossed:

1. you can hardly get any relevant data because honestly how many owners do
you expect to be willing to participate? 0,1% of xda´ers who are still just a tiny
fraction of all users?
2. people are concerned about their privacy nowadays (little bit too much I´d say)

i would love to help,but this cant determine all users in the world,since not half of them know xda at all.
perhaps u should change it for xda user only,even that,i doubt half will participate.

Check that data out....the number of moto g imported in india by flipkart ( the exclusive seller in India).
And both 8 gb and 16 gb are currently out of stock so you can infer that most if not all of those are already sold out!

Pretty sure....right now its exclusive to flipkart and we don't know how long exclusive period is.
Plus no vendor will import more than few hundrer peices now since everyone who was intrested in G already got or booked a G from flip...Other vendors know that!
Sent from Samsung Chat

Nope it was only for 2 weeks
Have a look
http://www.androidheadlines.com/201...ndia-exclusive-to-flipkart-for-two-weeks.html
And its almost over the two week period
Talking of vendors
Well flipkart isn't the only store online
http://www.androidos.in/2014/02/moto-g-pre-order-sold-out/
Snapdeal had set up preorders even before it was released on flipkart
Further there is amazon too
Also big vendors like univercell also are up for selling moto g
Furthermore there shall be countless small vendors importing a few hundreds too..... So sums up to a lot I think
Also about the booking of phones
Well if you are getting one in your hand right now
You won't wait for flipkart will you
People can very easily cancel their orders in case they get it earlier from somewhere else
Sent from my XT1033 using xda app-developers app

Yes but the recent orders are big amount I don't think any vendor would be importing 10000 moto g's now
Yes people can cancel that Is why am sure Flipkart would ship everyone's moto g this week!!
Also Motorola or flipkart never said about the time of exclusive period...everyone guessed two weeks coz snapdeal said the devices would be available in 3rd week of feb

About the time period. Its official. Lookup for news articles for the same.
Second it doesn't show if it was one entity who imported them all. It might just be a bundle coming over together.
And third week of Feb yes. That adds more to the two week period.

(Sorry for Off-Topic post)
What I think is that the main reason behind maintaining the low price of the phone is that Motorola wanted to eliminate the long Dealer chaining system ...
They wanted to reach customer directly, thus reducing the dealer to dealer cost increment .
That also explains the fact that Moto G has "Imported by Flipcart" printed in the product tag on Box.
According to me in UK there's only one vendor i.e. PHONE4U.uk who is authorized to import and sell devices .
Same is the case in India, the moment it will be made available to other stores the price will rise up (for eg. in Brazil there are many vendors and the price is considerably high).
However I don't know how SnalDeal got hold of Moto G ... Also I'm not aware if the news are genuine or not since no body has reported to buy and receive their devices through Snaldeal.
I had also mailed Motorola querying about the same and their reply was
"At this time, Moto G is only available through FlipKart. Stay tuned for any updates" .

Nexus 10 India

Well guys we people in India always have the problem that, most of the "nexus" devices are never released in India, and if they do their seriously overpriced.
So i am planning to get this beauty via my Uncle whose in USA, Now what's the problem? No warranty in India. And also that there wont be any part's available so now what do i do?
I can't buy this from India(I expect it to sell that 34,000(nearly 620$) for 16 gb)
What are you guys doing to this device?
Dude , get the Nexus 10 , Have the uncle check it for a week for so in his time in the US , so he can get it exchanged in case of defects, If u dont mess around things run pretty fine . I have a US bought lappy since 4 years , w/o any problems . So grab ur NExus before they run out of stock
ASUS is honouring the warranty for the Nexus 7 in India, so I hope Samsung also honours the Nexus 10 warranty in India.
Of course, we will have to confirm it from Samsung India, but hope for the best..
Hey OP ,from which city you are buddy ? Mumbai ? Even i am looking to get but no any chance to launch in india ,dont know why such discriminiation .
I asked Samsung on their site about their plans to launch the Nexus 10 in India, and this is the reply I got :
"We are sorry for the inconvenience caused to you.
As per the mentioned query of Samsung Tablet Nexus 10, we don’t have any launching information in INDIA so kindly bear with us till then.
As per the mentioned query, we request you to be in touch for the future reference.

Now, you can also Chat Live on http://livechat.support.samsung.com/LiveChat/customer/nonMemInfo.jsp or find troubleshooting guides on our Website: www.samsung.com/in/support "
So from their reply, it looks as if they are clueless about the Nexus 10. Therefore, it seems unlikely it would be released in India.

On the Play Store, the shipping is 15USD and the sales tax depends on the state you have it delivered to.

As replied by the seller on tradus in india, to my question about warranty
_________________________
Dear Sir,
Thank you for your query.
Samsung Google Nexus 10 16GB (Imported) we have listed is imported from USA. That is why there is a price advantage.
Product is brand new and comes with one year manufacturer's warranty and we take care of logistic expenses for 1 year if there is any manufacturing defects.
We deliver the product in mentioned turn around time once we receive the order.
Thank you,
Team iBhejo.com"

Just ordered!!! Infact, now I have two which have been dispatched for me.
The thing is, someone who is coming over from London for a visit in a couple of weeks promised to buy me one. But she wasn't sure if the google store link would open, so she ordered one from some website which claimed that it can send one in 20-25 days(kinda forgot the name). Three days ago, that website sent her an E-mail stating that it was unlikely that they would be able to provide her with one due to high demand. So yesterday, just as the device got restocked on the UK play store, she bought me one from Play Store UK. Now this morning as she gets up, and realizes that she should cancel the first order, she recieves a mail from the older website saying that the first Nexus10 has been dispatched!!!
And now the one from the Play Store has been dispatched too.So the way I look at it, atleast one of those orders would have a perfect Nexus 10 which I would have in my hands 14 days from now. And one of my friends/family is also going to get unexpectedly really lucky!

Unfortunately N10 needs a specific case due to peculiar shape.. i tried Note 10.1 cases which couldnt accomodate it..
Ultimately ordered one from US on ebay and got a good deal wherein got screen guard free with it. Must mention quality of both case as well as cover is very good.

Is the Moto X selling well?

So, we all know the future of Motorola depends (maybe) on the success of the Moto X.
Do you guys have any piece of information, any personal experience in a store or anything to share related to the success or unsuccess of the phone?
I really hope it sells well.

Guy at the store today when I was returning mine said they're selling some, not a ton, and not "almost none."
Said most of the ones they've sold have been customized. So people seem to like that.

Cool!
Custom phones shipping time was pushed back from 4 to 6-8 days "due to high demand" so they must be selling well, right?
The rep at my normal store said they were selling quite a few. I was in twice before buying the card and he was really knowledgeable about the phone so it was nice to see someone actually helping people understand the value.
The 6 day thing Is hogwash. When I placed my order this past Sunday they estimated 9 days and delivery around Sept 4th. I got it 3 days later (yesyerday) I didn't even get the email saying it shipped until it was on the truck for delivery already.

Im willing to bet there aren't much sale going on with the iPhone 5S about to come out.
I love android and all, but a lot of people prefer iPhones.
That and to a lesser degree, Nexus 5 + Note 3
Depends on what well means. Probably a little better than most Motorola's given the marketing budget & no carrier exclusivity but it's nowhere close to an iPhone or SGS.

The rep told me last friday (there was no one in the store) that it had been like that all month, empty.
AT&T exclusivity on custom requests coupled with not releasing it at the same time on all carriers is a fail for Motorola.

its that iPhone 5S. better have android on it
And in regards to motorola failing, it is IMPOSSIBLE to synchronize same day release for all carriers unless youre apple, even then, its really hard because of Verizon. If they are in the course of a month, like the S4, thats pretty successful. The HTC One, on the other hand, thats a fail.
But exclusivity wise with the motomaker, yea, thats a fail. IDK how much AT&T offered to pay upfront, but i dont think its worth it.

iPhones have there place, just not with me anymore. I got so tired of jailbreaking and waiting months for a new jailbreak to appear after a updated version of IOS came out. All I wanted was the ability to run iblacklist. Anyway, I really want a Moto X but somehow thinking the LG G2 might morph into a N5 really has me excited. Also I'm very curious what the Note 3 and new wearable accessories might be just around the corner. Moto X, Note 3, Nexus 5, they will all be winners. Tough decisions ahead on what to get..

Same day availability isn't even a selling point of a phone & they probably made more money on the customization exclusivity period than the few random people that consider that a make or break on a purchase.

Tell that to Apple and Samsung. Instead of getting more people with Moto X 's in their hands, they will most definitely lose market share to the G2, the 2013 Nexus and the Sony Honami. Samsung was a garbage cellphone maker until they followed the Apple model, and I won't even buy a Samsung phone, but Moto would do well to follow their lead if they want to sell more than 5 million phones world wide.

Ordered the T-Mobile version!

I ordered the T-Mobile version earlier today, FINALLY. Not sure if I should have waited for the DEV edition, but the T-Mobile version comes with an unlockable bootloader so I guess that's good. If the DEV edition becomes available later this week I will simply return the tmo version and get that.
Anyone else order the T-Mobile Moto X?
UPDATE: Our Moto X's have started shipping, although the moto site still does not reflect it. Showing a delivery date of 9/16 (Monday)!

Might wait for the Dev. Edition and/or Motomaker edition, the appealing thing about the Moto X is the possibility of the 32gb internal storage and you won't get that with the carrier version.
Do we know if the Dev edition will come with T Mobiles AWS HSPA? If so, that is what I'm going to wait for.

It probably won't. The T-Mobile version does though, and is fully unlockable... so I'd go with that one.
Almost bit the bullet and bought one of these. Can't justify dropping 600 bucks for 16gb and from most accounts a poor camera and average screen. I really wanted to love the phone, but in my limited time in playing with one, I just don't feel it's a 600 dollar product. Motorola pays 220 dollars to have the phone made, they would have taken over the world if they didn't try to get 3x the price out of customers.

Thanks for wishing me luck, it worked. I bought a LG G2 for 600 dollars. Problem solved. I appreciate the luck! :good: 32GB, 1080P screen, Great camera with OIS, for the same price. It wasn't the fact that phones cost 600 dollars, its the fact that Motorola is charging 600 dollars for that phone. Its not a 600 dollar piece of hardware. Anyway, I'm good to go now, back to my regularly scheduled G2 forums. Best of luck X guys! Its really a cool and unique phone.

You're welcome
And congrats!
I tried to order one several times yesterday. I had it the basket every time and when I clicked the purchase button I kept getting a message about an error with my credit card which has plenty of money on it. Now I have three holds pending on my credit card in the amount of the purchase and they all say Motorola Direct. First chat session was cut off and second one was with a person saying the only moto x available for purchase was the att exclusive one. I told them they had bad information and they insisted I was wrong. I made a call about it and have had two call backs today but each time I was busy. Hoping for another call back today because I'm not going to sit on hold for another 20 minutes today to see what they have come up with. They did admit that the website has a problem but without more info I am in the dark still I'm losing my faith in this company and it sucks because I want to try this phone and give them a chance but it is frustrating so far. I know its early in the game for the T-Mobile variant but damn, its not looking good so far.

Same here.. Ordered yesterday and still no shipping notification. Not sure why the delay when it shows in stock. Anyone spoke to Moto customer care?

In other threads that don't have to do with the t-mobile version, people have reported the phone showing up even before the motorola order status page was updated. So....anyway, take that with some heavy salt.

Hopefully that's true because it sucks to wait for a phone in stock. Does anyone know if signature is needed for delivery?

Still no shipping confirmation. Its been two days. Wonder what the hold up is?
Iwhen I Google this, articles come up with "t mobile moto x now available, not shipping yet"

Just ordered My Moto X Dev Edition

Joining the club... Hopefully this is the one.
Selling my HTC one because I cannot stand the button on the top and the damn lack of cases and such.
So...since I just dropped 400 bucks on this badboy, can you guys share your experience to calm my wallet nerves?
My dev edition Moto x is on the truck for delivery. Selling my Droid maxx (4.4 unrooted).
Gonna miss the battery life, would have got a dev edition maxx if they were in stock. But I lived with a galaxy nexus for 2 years so should be good with the X.
The droid is the same hardware with a bigger screen (same resolution, higher PPI on the moto x = sharper images without having to stretch to reach the corners), so I know I'm gonna love the experience, with the added bonus of being able to root no matter what update they send out.
Stock rom and xposed is the sweet spot on these devices!
I grabbed the Dev edition during that $100 off/1 hour promo ... Had the Note 3 at the time and thought that the x would be a 14 day experiment. A week later I listed my N3 on Swappa! Loving the x!!

Rest knowing that if you hardbrick. You are convered under warranty. I know I feel a bit warm inside when I see the words "DEVELOPER EDITION" on the back.

My 1053 is on its way. Can you clarify this? What will Motorola do if I brick it? Unbrick it or give me another one, no questions asked?

I ditched my Note 3 for the GSM DE. I'm not regretting it. The Moto X has proven to me that thoughtful engineering (both hardware and software) beats anything that is the result of competition in the "spec wars".

Tomorrow is the day!

Of course 'within reason'. If you physically fry your phone cause you rooted and did such: they're not going to warranty the physical damage. However if it's software like in the simple case where it bootloops over a single value recursive value then they're not going to be as adamant in denying you if you own the DE phone. Unlike the case with returns where you're forwarded a code: you'll simply send in the phone and wait for repairs like typical cases with phone repairs.
Final check out price
What is the final check out price of the moto x? I mean the taxes and other charges that apply.

wont taxes vary by location? Example, PA has 6% sales taxes, where DE has 0%.
Web site says $379.99 * Taxes and shipping charges may apply. At one time (back when I got my X Dev Ed) moto did have free shipping on orders above a certain amount, and it was posted on their web site. Its not posted now, so I'm not sure if they still have it.
I got rid of my Note 3 for the GSM DE as well. I never regret that decision.

Moto were giving $70 discount for the moto x so it came to $379 + taxes and shipping extra.. This price was 32gb of the GSM model as well as the developer edition. Now there is no offer.

Getting the new 6P by november 10

I wanted to buy the new nexus 6p for a long time now, even before it came out...
I have a friend living in the US coming to visit ,and he leaves the states at november 10....
Is there any safe way to buy the phone and making it arrive on time to his house before he leaves ?
Thank you for helping !
I would contact the Google Store's support team, or you can always place an order and cancel it if the estimated ship date isn't to your liking.

You probably won't get one by Nov. 10., unless you want a 32GB version.
All variants of the 64/128GB are sold out on Google.

This is good advice.
Most likely not. Not sure when the 32gb is shipping but I imagine its cutting it close at best case for Nov 10. You could always get gouged on Ebay or look on swappa or craigslist.
Think it's too Late for your Date!!

actually i do want the 32 GB nexus, but since the date is so close i'm afraid to take that chance...
is there a physical store that will hold the 6P by that date ? if there is, I don't need to take that chance on a web order...
Or maybe amazon will get a hold on it till then ? they usually have a very reliable shipping time from what I'm aware of..
thanks !

There won't be a physical store that has the device by then.
Hard enough to get a Moto Pure in a store and it's been out a month.

You're going to miss LTE band 20 if you are in Europe with the US version. Other bands could be missing if you're living elsewhere.

sadly, since I have to.... I need to decide which other phone to get.....I thought about the nexus 6 or the moto x pure edition....
what do you think ?
1. I really love the nexus family and the updates, but the nexus 6 have a very high SAR rating....so that disappointing...on the other hand I could not find those SAR rating for the moto X pure edition....and usually motorola phones tend to have a very high rating...Do you know its ratings ?
2. Its not a nexus and I'm not sure how "future proof" the moto X pure will be with android updates..
3. Since time is a main thing to consider, how long do you usually need to wait if you buy the phone from "moto maker" ?
both are 350-400 $ phones which is nice....
what do you guys think ? Is there another opting to consider ? maybe nexus 5X ?
