I buy g6 yesterday and i have some questions
Only 1 g ram is available...is this normal? The system is using 2.6 g of ram... And sometimes my phone it gets hot... I try greenify to minimaze use of ram but still are using 2.7 of ram... I bought this smartphone because the greats especifications and now i,m a little angry
This is how Android works, it's normal, it's uses as much ram as possible.
I have been experiencing a similar issue (heating without any reason) by some time and I would also have several other things to point out. I trust in Oreo's arrival but I do not have much hope.
Needless to say, all attempts to reset to factory data have been useless.
check the battery consumption and disable all services that you don't need

Can anyone of you download advance task killer from the android market/Google Play. Download and could you check how many memory do you have? When I bought my note, I had only 40% of memory available on my phone, which means about 800 MB, and I couldn't take advantage the rest of the 2+GB memory because phone has couple hundred apps preinstalled... Now I started clearing and un installing all these unnecessary apps and now I have about 1.6 GB memory available on my phone, and as a result of that I was able to get two days battery every day. Basically I can't finish my battery in one day regardless of the usage, which is really good....

Zip aligning the apps should give you more RAM as well. but yeah, hibernating with greenify and freezing apps really cleans the used RAM footprint up and gives you much improved battery.

Don't worry about it, in Android free memory is wasted memory. This is how the sistem works... and it works well.

That's true to an extent. However when you have apps sitting in the memory using it all up then other apps will be automatically killed and this will cause redraws and extra time loading the app again. This happened on the 2gb version of the G3 which had a lot of launcher redraws because of all the bloatware. It's still best to get rid of bloatware so it doesn't reside in the RAM and cause apps you actually use to get killed.

My freshly restarted note 4 shows 2.1 used out of available 2.7. There is an extreme amount of bloat and note specific apps running in TW that cannot be easily killed if at all.

Antutu widget has the memory cleaner. I use only before games like Galaxy on Fire 2 HD, or if I run a benchmark. But debloated android you should leave alone memory unless you need many ram for specific app. Cleaning memory will consume your battery as CPU work harder reloading everything.
Note 4 debloated has much memory requirments. Android design handles that and it works good debloated. Android RAM is never should be in your mind as it works on PC.

"Cleaning memory will consume your battery as CPU work harder reloading everything" Actually my experience tells me different than what you're saying. When I bought my note 4 my battery was very bad, I could't use it even one day, but now and after I compulutely removed all bul..... apps my phone gives me Two days normal usage or a day of crazy usage.......

That is so good. I am receiving 24 hour but with 1x mobile here in Phillipines that is good. Very much demand user I am being. Note 3 I only have 12 hour.
But I am referring to cleaning memory on debloated the device. On bloated device cleaning memory is helpful
Just got a new s6 edge+ and absolutely blown away with the phone as a whole.
Only problem/issue is the RAM usage. I'm a light user for 90% of the day and i have barely any apps installed, yet the RAM is always above 50% even when all apps are closed and i 'clean' the RAM. Average RAM usage is 75%. 3GB?!?
Is this normal to all other users? My thought are that it could be a false reading. Or that it could be dummy using RAM and reassigns it to wherever needs it when any high usage apps run.
I am a UK user and the only update applied was a carrier pushed update. (E.g. i havent done any updates myself or messed around with the phone).
Attached is a screenshot of my kernal and baseband versions for anyone interest.
Any thoughts would be appreciated, thanks, Zack.
I see the same on my SM-G9827 phone.It opens around 30 apps in background.If you clean them regularly it kills the battery.Its better to leave them like that.I am getting 6 hours SOT with 3 % left if i leave them as it it.
Ram is ment to be used. To make apps open fast when you need them. A lot of free ram does not make your phone faster AFAIK. So keep those apps running and enjoy a fast phone!

I agree.
RAM is meant to be used, you've got 4GB of it. The OS has been optimised to kill any processes that haven't been used if memory is filling up. Forget about saving RAM and focus on enjoying the device.
I just received as a gift a used Nexus 7 (2012). It's updated to the latest stock 5.1.1 (no custom kernels or anything) and seems to work as expected.
What I AM noticing however, is that even when just updating apps or games (not doing anything else during that time), the lower left of the tablet (while facing the screen) is getting really hot. The temperature indicator seems to say it's below 42C (I believe it might be wrong, but got no way to actually test it).
Is this normal? I mean I know Tegra-3 SoC is not the coolest out there, but just how normal is for this thing to get so hot so fast? (I checked the battery stats for possible usage from other apps, nothing concerning found there)
Updating apps is hard work on LP or MM. It depends a bit on how many apps you have installed, but it's normal that it's becoming hot ... but after the apps are installed it should cool down rapidly.

Well, it's definitely getting uncomfortably hot (not just warm), that's my biggest concern. I wonder why nobody complained about it like how the S810 is getting into the ground hammered today =/
As far as apps go, just the standard Google stuff is installed + 4 Tegra-optimized games, but nothing was running in the background according to the battery and app indicator so those can't be the cause.
I've had my new phone for almost two weeks now and noticed that it runs uncomfortably warm. I noticed this right at the start in fact, a few minutes after I first turned it on, but as the built-in apps updated themselves I knew that would heat it up. It still got warm afterwards though, even before I installed my usual apps and transferred my data to it. Just having it switched on and fiddling about with the built-in apps was enough to make it heat up significantly after about 10 minutes use.
I then installed Battery Circle which reported a toasty 43 degrees centigrade. This seems rather too hot for comfort and the battery drain is quite significant - it dropped from 100% to 75% in just under two hours of use (not totally continuous) of web browsing, BBC and Facebook apps etc so I wonder, is there a hardware problem with my phone or if it's just the 808 chipset that's prone to running hot and hence normal for this model? Overall battery life even with moderate use isn't exactly fantastic, either and rather worse than my old Moto G (2014).
I did Google it, but couldn't find anything conclusive, even on XDA, with quite a lot of people seeing this issue and an equal number not seeing it, so can anyone shed some light on it? Is the upcoming Marshmallow update with its improved power management likely to alleviate it?
Although I like the phone and the performance is very good, I might just return it because of this issue and get a different phone. Prerequisites are stereo speakers and a minimum of 2GB RAM for smooth, stutter-free operation, everything else is not so critical. Any suggestions for alternatives? I paid about £350 for it off Amazon and would like to spend about the same on a possible replacement.
Same here, just browsing internet for 10 minutes, and phone turns noticeable hot.
Android 6.0 installed yesterday, same hot issue in the new ROM ( bootloader locked, ROM stock, recovery Stock)
Purchased in Amazon (399 + tax)

I own MXS XT1572 (Indian dual sim variant) and it does not get as hot as you say... but yes, after 1 hour of internet browsing it does get hot enough to feel uncomfortable in hand. 10 minutes is something I noticed in one of my friend's Moto X Pure... and another friend has no issue with his moto x pure...
So maybe yes it can be a problem with half of the devices...
Well, good thing about 6.0 update is: temp is about 10degrees cooler from lollipop. I been doing the exact same thing and noticed the change. Pretty much constant gaming with full gpu use. Must be updated kernel or gpu. I'm hoping devs can look into this and come up with a rom/kernel to tweak these settings little bit more to make this device solid and put heating issue to bed.

That's great news.
Been using it over the last couple of days in this colder winter weather without it getting excessively warm. It looks like it's quite sensitive to the ambient temperature, so I wouldn't be surprised if it suffered thermal runaway on a really hot day and burned itself out.
Do you people recommends to send this phone to warranty with this issue?
Just using Chrome for 5 minutes and battery show 42 degrees (celcius) , i dont remember any other app doing the same thing
Thanks in advance

Do you have a new phone? You sen the old one to RMA ?

I was running the battery dead out-of-the-box due to Google shovelware. Disabling as many Google apps as possible and using a browser with an ad blocker has me ending the day at 45%. If you have any ad spewing apps, get rid of them too. Buy or find ad-free versions of your apps.
Hi .. I am using moto x play for the last 20 days..
I updated Android 6.0.1 too.
My problem is battery drains fastly and heating while using internet. No such issues when turning off mobile data. 3g data making more such issues than 2g. I expected much battery while read reviews and bought moto xplay bcz of its additional superb features.. Someone please help me. Also I wana know is 2gb enough . am confused is it get hang when using more and more apps. I have expanded ma internal storage with 64gb.is it hang the device?Am not a game lover . pls help me ..
Have you tried resetting your phone to the factory settings? i know its a pain to do it but it might resolve the issue.
I'm also using a 64 gb memory card with my moto x play and have not faced any issue with that regard yet, so i'd definitely recommend resetting your phone to factory settings.
But.. I have the same problems before updating ma xplay... I have noticed it. So hw can resetting solve it ,?

it happens a lot of times, a hard reset resolves many problems. Specially when you do a major software update in my personal experience. I've always done a hard reset when i've done a major software update whether it was iphone or android. So its worth a shot, if that also doesn't resolve the issue then its definitely a hardware issue.
K..
Then can u please explain me what are the changes wil happen when resetting phone.
Android 6 degraded to 5 Na ?
Definitely ma phones speed and performance changes after updating to a6. Only battery draining and heating problem remaining. I expected more from these :3630mah battery.and never expected these much of heat from moto.

Your os version won't change on resetting the device. It would delete all the apps installed. Do move the data from internal to external though.
I didn't had any heating problem with this phone. Little bit warm under normal conditions is normal.
That 3630 mAh of battery has to provide energy to a battery sipping processor and a battery hungry big screen, so don't expect miracles. ?

yes exactly, the phone does get a bit warm when i connect turbo charger but that is obviously going to happen to any phone after connecting a turbo charger and i've been getting battery life of almost 24 hours on my moto x play with 3g and location on all the time. I dont play any games though.
Thank for ur valuable information.
Wil come back soon after trying this..
