Will Google Maps Navigation work in Europe? As it was disabled on the Moto Droid in Europe, is it enabled on the Nexus One?

My guess is no.
The reason it's disabled outside the US is map data - if you open maps.google.com and zoom in on the US, you'll see something like "Copyright Google Inc". If you go over Europe, you'll see they're still using the Telesync maps. They probably haven't licensed it from them, and probably won't.
Thats disappointing...

This seems to be the same SOAK test number 3 of the Brazilian retail - that's kind of great.
I'm using it on my Maxx (BR), it's sometimes very sluggish, but overall it's pretty good!
Please share with us your opinions :}
My only complaint is the UI sometimes - rarely but still - locks for a few seconds, them it's very fast again.
No other bugs noticed.
Very nice, hopefully someone posts the OTA soon. It would be a single upgrade instead of 3 upgrades using the Brazil soak files.
Is the same build from Mexico, maybe is the Mexican ota

Are the radio functionality between Moto Turbo and Moto Maxx identical? The same LTE bands, etc. etc.?
I know the hardware is identical, but sometimes, there are minor differences in firmware.
I saw his profile from this guy and he is from Mexico, this is the Mexican ota, but maybe the problem is that he doesn't know how to locate the downloaded file and upload for us.
We just need to wait

EXACTLY THE SAME. Well, according to the Motorola India specs, the Turbo has MORE HSPA and LTE bands... See specs below.
Except Motorola finally admits the XT1225 has LTE band 5. But we already knew that. They left that off the "official" specs for the Moto Maxx, even though it was there in the FCC tests. I found it was still enabled with modem scanning software. Now Motorola is "officially" listing it for the Moto Turbo. No REAL difference between the two for LTE.

BUT, the Moto Turbo lists some additional HSPA bands. Those also may already be in enabled in Moto Maxx, also, just not officially listed? Earlier some people were asking about HSPA band IV (1700), for T-mobile HSPA and I couldn't give them a definite answer. But the Turbo definitely lists it, as well as HSPA 800.

I can also confirm band 5 LTE works as my provider uses band 4 and band 5 in my area for LTE. There is no band 4 coverage in my basement at all. Only phones that can receive band 5 give LTE coverage and the Maxx does(same as my Moto X phones).

I've edited my previous reply to also show the extra HSPA bands the Moto Turbo lists. Whether those are also there on the Moto Maxx, I don't know. My QPST modem scans were inconclusive for 2G/3G. I used QXMD for LTE.
On my MAXX, I found one of the the extra UMTS/HSPA 1700 Motorola now admits to in the Turbo... but my scan didn't show the 900 that was supposed to be there. So, when T-mobile people got excited and wanted me to vouch that 1700 was REALLY there, I couldn't. NOW, I can.
Now Moto Turbo ALSO has UMTS/HSPA 800 added. Is that something really new, or is it like the Maxx LTE band 5 -- really there all the time?
Point is, flashing to Moto Turbo can't hurt and can only help, if you want more HSPA bands.

the solution, post # 8 clean install, i cleaned my cache
ChazzMatt - I can 100% confirm the Moto Maxx includes the AWS HSPA 1700 MHz band. There are two providers that use that band where I am located and the Maxx communicates just fine with both. Just in case there was any doubt.
btw, it is possible the Turbo has slightly different radio hardware. I wonder if they are marked with an FCC ID at all.
Does anyone know why I still don't have the update?
I just says that my system is up to date.

THANK YOU!
If we can get a good picture of the Moto Turbo box, we'll know if it has the FCC. The outside of the box will have THIS:
These are pictures of my two Moto Maxx boxes side by side. While only the Puerto Rico (U.S. territory) LEGALLY needs the FCC ID, it was also on the Mexico Moto Maxx box.

It's that the Mexican lollipop ota?
I've watched some Moto G4 Play unboxings on Youtube and i've noticed that some models have NFC, some not. Is there a list where I can see which models have NFC?
I'm pretty sure it's only the 1GB dual SIM model that has NFC. Though, looking through some hidden menus with QuickShortcutMaker, I did find some menus for NFC. Could be that it's just code they didn't pull out. That seems a lot more likely than the phone having the hardware for NFC but it's disabled in the software.
But who knows? The 2GB model apparently has the 10W charging capability where you can get "5 hours from 15 mins of charging"

I have a XT1604 (16GB, 1GB of RAM not dualsim) and it has NFC
XT1604 Moto G4 Play for UK, both 1 and 2 gb versions, has nfc.
Other versions do not have nfc and differ by supported bands
I have G4 play not dual SIM version XT1604 1gb ram with NFC
I have an XT1603 Dual SIM, DTV, 16GB/2GB and it does NOT have NFC, and the non-DTV model (XT1600) doesn't have it too
Can anyone point out the differences between the US and the EU version?
I have te feeling the only look similar but are completely different on the inside. Qualcomm vs Mediatek.
Since Mediatek doesn't publish it's kernel sources there will be no custom kernel for the EU version. Am I right?
I have had the opportunity to test the EU version in a store. I noticed some holes on the back for a speaker? on the back, something that looked like notification LED? (or was it the light sensor) on the top right front.
Also the camera's and even battery life could be different since the chipset is different.
Is the US version better than the EU version?
Better for what? Battery life? Performance? There's no way to know until people test it.
I have the US Verizon Prepaid Version of the phone. I believe it's pretty much the same as the regular US unlocked version. In a previous post in this thread I discussed a problem I was having with a specific game and it not displaying certain graphics. Nobody with the international version was able to reproduce the issue. There was also a difference in some of the options in the settings menu (IE MEMORY Option missing from the main settings menu ((I later discovered where it was hidden.))
If there are any test you'd like me to run or anything I can do to help answer this question please let me know.

Do you have this on Verizon Prepaid? Have you tried a GSM SIM in it? If so, is it SIM unlocked and what bands did it support?

Yes the US has the Snapdragon 425, and 426(Sprint) I know the Indian one has mediatek I don't know what the EU models have.
Also from review the Indian models have metal body builds
It's weird only the Sprint version has the Snapdragon 427. The Sprint version has no fingerprint sensor based on the photos on their website. See the attached photo. According to the comparison of the 425 vs 427 on Qualcomm's website (scroll to almost bottom of page), the 427 has a faster modem and QuickCharge 3.0 (2.0 on 425).

I have the US version of moto e4. It is a pretty good phone. The system is very fast (Android 7.1.1 with May 1, 2017 security patch), the gps modem is quite sensitive for the price. It has most of the sensors except NFC, IR blaster, thermometer and barometer. I checked the compatibility with EU networks. The problem is that it supports only B7 (2600 MHz) LTE band (no B3 or B20 support), so in the cities the phone can achieve 4G speed, but at the countryside you may have just 3G (HSPA) or 3G+ (HSPA+) speed, which is enough for reading emails, news, using google maps and waze or getting weather information. But do not organize a video conference with that phone somewehere at the europian countryside.

Hi,
When you bought the US unlocked version of the Moto E4, did it come with the quick charger?

Moto E4 does not formally support quick charge spec. However, stock kernel enables rapid charging with uptake rates approaching 2000 mAh under ideal conditions. Can use any suitably sized charge brick and high quality cable. Unfortunately, the charger included with most US retail units tops out at 4W/0.8A. Good for overnight charging but not a quick boost.
I bought the US version (Verizon). Can I use a protective case claiming to be meant for the EU version? Are there diferences in the body, location of camera, sensor ...?

They are the same size but the holes for headphone jack, rear mic for noise cancellation, and spearker are cut out differently. See attached picture as example.
Hi. Does anyone knows will Motorola bring Galileo system (European alternative for GPS) support for G5 Plus in future? On this site in supported chipsets, I found SD625 but the only one supported Moto phone is Moto X4. Maybe Lenovo will bring it to our phones with Oreo update?
