Motorola is preparing something for European friends

It appears that Motorola will unvieal something for Motorola fans in Europe, on the 14th.
Motorola will host a press event in the UK later this month, on January 14. The invitation to the event reveals that the company is about to welcome “a new addition to the European Motorola family of products” following the global introduction of the affordable Moto G.
Now, as exciting as the possibility of seeing a brand new Moto handset sounds, we are more inclined to believe that there won’t be such a thing in the near future. Instead, perhaps Motorola is finally bringing its Moto X to Europe (as you may already know, at the moment the Moto X is an America-only smartphone). This, of course, is just speculation, but it’s clear from the invitation that Motorola really has something new to show - albeit it might be new only to Europe.
January 14 is next Tuesday, so we have exactly one week before we find out what the upcoming event is all about. Meanwhile, we must also report that Moto G users in the UK are officially receiving Android 4.4.2 KitKat as of today (not too long after customers in the US got the update).

And I was about to pick up my Moto G tonight. Now I'm not.
That photo on the background is the same they used to announce the Moto X in the US:
And Live Chat from Motorola confirmed multiple times "Motorola is looking into bringing the Moto X to Europe.". That's their statement about the Moto X for Europe.

lets hope so, I'll have both then, G & X
Although on the UK moto website there's nothing there yet to indicate anything.
http://www.motorola.co.uk/home

I wonder how much the moto x will cost if it is brought to Europe.

Lets hope for Moto X. And lets dream about: made in the EU!

I didn't even know Motorola was still alive, they've always been way behind technical wise from as far as I can remember.

Dude, really? " way behind technical wise"? They created first mobile phone, also they created fingerprint-unlock that is using iPhone 5s now. Also motorolas have one of the best radios for wifi, FM and calling. What created for example samsung?

It's the Moto X, but apparently the price is not so good

Yeah, think the thing is its not often you hear about new Motorola mobiles anymore, few and far between, it seems to be all about Samsung and apple now

On another note, on moto uk's site, they have a vacancy for a Program Manager for MotoMaker UK

Put in country 'UK' ad it shows up.
So it looks entirely possible the X may be coming to the UK at least.

Interesting. I wonder what the price is going to be. I'll still be in time to return my Moto G
edit: To be honest, I reckon it's a bad time to release another phone here in the UK from Motorola. People are already struggling to find stock, and what's attractive about the Moto G is the price/performance. That's why I got one. The Moto X is their flagship, it'll be double the price.

Launch the Moto X at £250 simfree in the UK then i'm getting one , love the Moto G

Wishful thinking, I reckon to buy outright it'll be closer to double that. We'll see in due course.

Considering the price difference between the US and UK moto g's, i think that the moto x is going to retail for about 320-360 pounds. Let's hope for the best!

Well i would be interested if the price would be around 300 - 350 euro`s.

Moto E Developer Edition and Google Play Edition Coming Soon

Motorola officially launched Moto E on May 13th in India and has been a successfully sold and is out of stock for now but there's some surprises we have in Store from Motorola.
You might not expect it but Yes, as our title says Moto E will be made available in Developer Edition and Google Play Edition soon officially from Motorola in coming days. While we had some chat with the Live assistance, here's what was revealed :

He/she said "I suggest that you stay tuned to see what surprise we have for you. We may be launching a Moto E developer soon."
When asked if it's a confirmation, it said yes but later in our conversation it denied the total confirmation. However, we will know if there's really a Dev and GPE editions coming our way.

As much as I'd love to have a Dev-Ed Moto E. I'm little skeptical about it. Esp for Indian market. We don't see much of the developer editions in India. Moto X does have one in US & Europe but they ditched Indian market on that too(even a normal 32 GB one isn't available).
Still, hopes are high.

Will these be available in India???

No Dev Edition will never be released in India and GPe cannot be shipped to India. So no there!
And I dont think Developer edition is coming as Moto X Dev Edition released earlier to moto X retail as they gave the phone pretty cheap and had quite a number of bugs.
Moto had an idea to release those devices to fuel up their hardware integration, once the learned in moto X, they never bothered to release it for moto G or I don't think they will for Moto E
GPe i can't say, it might!

I hope this happen i do want to get a developer moto phone.And i hope this happen.

No need of GPE.
A developer Edition is useful as there is no warranty issues
but Motorola uses pure Android version unlike Samsung
they don't customize there OS.
GPe gives faster updates, what about Motorola it released the updates within a week.
So no need of GPe phones by Motorola.

Hopefully your tip is true
Developer Editions are probably not popular in India due to the high price premium. Moto E was a handset made for markets like India. Given that there is also a huge android app developer community coming up in India, I believe this handset may be targeted at them. There are many people such as myself who have always wanted to buy a developer edition android, but they were usually unaffordable for me. If there is a Moto E developer edition, coming at under INR 8000 i.e. USD 130 (approx.) I will definitely consider buying it.
Given the Indian market, I would expect the developer edition to be priced at INR 7500 as the Moto E normal edition is currently priced at INR 7000.
Hope the tip is true and I am able to get my hands on one.
:good::good::good:
:highfive:

This is ballocks. There is no developer edition phone of Moto E and I dont think they ll even consider supplying.

Dev Ed are priced same as retail models. Only difference is the warranty is not void on unlocking it.
Apart from that, its the same phone.
And, as the above post says, there won't be a Dev Ed for Moto E and G.

http://motorola-blog.blogspot.in/2014/10/its-official-android-50-lollipop-coming.html
From Matt (Forum Manager, Motorola):
It's a minor holiday for some people, but for us it's a biggie -- the day we update the Android Update News page for Motorola phones. And today is that day!
Once Android 5.0 Lollipop is officially released, we intend to bring this latest upgrade to many of our other Motorola devices as well. This includes Moto X (1st & 2nd Gen), Moto G (1st and 2nd Gen), Moto G with 4G LTE, Moto E, and Droid Ultra, Droid Maxx and Droid Mini. We're still working out the details on timing and the upgrade depends on our partners' support, so stay tuned to our software upgrades page for the latest and greatest.
There are a lot of well-known Lollipop songs - which do you prefer? I'm more into the oldies on this one.

I am not agree w/ u.Cuz they have already done lots of marketing adv for X and G in last few weeks. Next turn is for E.As they are not going to release 2nd gen E soon ,so we can expect that they will try to capture the market by competition w/ one by releasing L update for E.

I just received my Moto E DualSIM. I have no experience with Android and Custom ROMs. So I'm undecided: should I wait for official Stock Lollipop or try now if I'm able to install CyanogenMod KitKat? I think it will need even more extra time to get CyanogenMod Lollipop released.

Basically it is your choice whether you want to install CM or Stock rom. If you are happy with Stock Rom then no need to root your phone and wait till lollipop is officially released.

Do you think that the GPE will get the update to android l a lot faster then the stock ones? Considering the stock roms are nearly pure android, do you think there will be a noticeable difference?
How many days do you think the GPE will save compared to the stock one?
How many days was it in the past? Or how many days is it *usually* for motorola devices or even other devices for that matter?

I really don't know man. Pure logic says that GPE will get it faster because you will not depend on the carrier to release it, just Google. So once they push the button all the GPE devices will get it....
In another note, I feel that the GPE runs much MUCH fluid than the non-GPE.

Yes I know, but I was refering to the carrier...so for example if you have Verizon, you have to wait until Verizon releases the update, not just Google and then Motorola. In the GPE, since it is unlocked you dont have to wait for any carrier to release it, so you are avoiding one step, hence I think is faster....

Great news, I had a really bad experience with my previous phone (Desire X) and updates. It got 4.1.2 3 months after release, but never saw another update after that from HTC. I think smartphones should be able to get updates from the OEM's for at least 2 years.
Most ironic fact was that I paid $300 for the Desire X, and $199 for the Moto G. Go figure...

Nope it hasn't...

Yup, paid 200€ for the moto G (in Romania, Motorola has no power here), and almost 300€ for the galaxy s3 mini... Galaxy s3 mini got the 4.1.2 update!!! From 4.1.1... And moto G is on a freaking list by Google, considered equal for updates as the nexus 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10 and the HTC one M8...
Not to mention my sister got the Moto E, the 150€ phone (here) with better support than the galaxy s5, which probably won't get lollipop this year, or even this winter... 600€ device, doesn't get software updates because Samsung is probably still stuck with their old TV update policy, which doesn't exist.

Whoop Whoop. such good news. Just got my Moto G GPE!

And soon Lollipop for GPE

Android 5.0 and L as OS options for G3 on LG SmartWorld: a hint on an early update?

I have posted this in reddit and wanted to share it here too. While I was browsing the LG SmartWorld site, I clicked the phone selection link on the right to choose the G3. After choosing the G3 and hitting OK, a dialog appears asking the operation system of the phone and there are options for Android 5.0 and Android L. I also checked this with other phones and these only appear in G3 models. Maybe a hint towards an early Lollipop update?

Now that's interesting. Hopefully it IS a sign we'll be getting it soon.

Interesting link i found
Came across this in a google search in regards to android l looks like early files for the new OS maybe just for the boot process so far.
h ttps://github.com/Sykopompos/Android-L-LG-D851

Why when i go to smartworld web it says my device not supported?? I have d855 32gb

D855 shows Android 4.4 and ANL, I think that one big update is coming

Android L is already being tested in Korea and Poland.

If You haven't made it up and Your friend seriously work as a tester - delete your post. Sharing anything related on any portal is violation of NDA and it can end very bad

dont think we will see L before 2015 definitely not before december 14

Do not expect many things.we are talking about LG the worst company in the updates. I wish to be wrong but something tell me that we will only see android L with the next release of lg g4. Lg usually brings the updates 3 months after Samsung and htc . Htc which promised fast update to m8 it states a few days ago that it will give the android L 90 days after received the stable version from Google. That means that the fast plan from htc is about 4 months from now. Guess now LG which slowest than a turtle.we are talking about 7 to 8 months. Which will be very near to the release of next g4. So it will wait a few months more to release the new g4 with the new lolipop experience. I wish to be wrong but lg has a very bad history.

LG G4 will be released with 4.4.....LG in a nutshell

Lol that has to be a joke from them. They can't even get the carriers to release anything. So yeah 6 month isn't so unrealistic. Even for canadien android releases
Sent from my LG-D852 using XDA Free mobile app

I have no faith in LG but if they update this phone to 5.0 it will sell more of these for them. So we might get lucky cause they are greedy.

I believe that it will take longer than 6 months to get out to carriers (At&t still is on 10d.) But it could be possible for the international versions.

I have been saying for months we will all be surprised (not just LG, but all major OEM's) about how quick Android L will roll out to the flagship devices, it will be the fastest roll out so far!

If all of these guys have not been working with the preview build code and getting all their ducks in a row, i would be SHOCKED. This is a new way for google to announce the OS and i think they did it to give OEMS time to get stuff ready for fast updates. Once final code drops, i wouldnt be surprised to see OEMS releasing for certifications from carriers within a month. At least HTC and samsung! lol But here is the thing i keep hoping for. Samsung used to be HORRIBLE with updates, then they figured it out and now are one of the fastest (HTC still has the crown). LG Could do the same. Especially with all the time they should have already had with the base code (not any MAJOR changes really even in this latest preview). Fingers crossed. As long as i have this phone long enough to actually see the update. My tmobile jump and a nexus 6 or note 4 are almost tempting me, but i love this phone!
