It's nice to see a decent LG phone that can be rooted and have a custom recovery. After owning the LG Motion, I vowed to never again get stuck with a locked down tight phone, that's why I went with an unlocked Moto G 1st gen 3G phone. Hopefully you'll get a good selection of ROM's and maybe even...

I came across this today. I don't have the phone (I'm using a Moto G on Metro), but thought you guys might have an interest in this, if you haven't seen it yet. It looks like someone has made a recovery for your phone. Hope it helps. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3049800

So, if anyone is interested a ROM for Android 5.0 is booting on this venerable old gal. Here's the link to it over on XDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2931067 I got it installed and up and running. So far the camera force closes. I also don't have all my apps re-installed...

If you do the swap on-line, or over the phone, there's no charge. Only in the store will you get charged.

Hey Mr. Bruce! How's your N4 treating you?

Saw this on a DART (Dallas Area Rapid Transit) bus the other day:

So my US, unlocked XT1034 finally got the 4.4.4 update. It's ironic that Motorola sent it out shortly before Android 5.0. I honestly thought that Moto was going to skip it on us and take us straight from 4.4.3 to 5.0.

I didn't think about getting my SIM at Walmart. I'll have to remember that when we get my wife a new phone to replace her Motion.

Here it is: It’s Official: Android 5.0 Lollipop Coming to Moto X, Moto G, Moto E and More - The Official Motorola Blog I don't know if that will include the CDMA variants, or just the GSM models. However, I assume that all the versions will get it.

So, I decided to install CM11 on my G, today. I just did my 1st OTA CM update. It's just cool to finally have a phone that has a valid recovery (three actually), official CM (and a whole slew of other ROMs), and an unlocked boot loader. I started out my Android life using the LG Optimus M...

(Just had to put that tip of the hat to Hitchhikers Guide in there) Well I've officially moved over to the Moto G now (no I didn't wait to get the LTE version). I'm loving it! It's a great phone, even with just HSPA+ 21. I've unlocked the boot loader, put CWM on it, rooted and tried out a...

I just ordered my Moto G tonight. I just ordered the original 16 gig rather than waiting for the LTE to be available. I'm ok with hspa+. I figured I've waited since the beginning of December so I went ahead and ordered it now! :cool:

Well, since no one has made this yet, I'll go ahead and be the first. Here is a screen shot of my 1st screen to the right of my main home screen. I have the Google Now widget on there, as well as the camera and tapatalk. Edit: correct the link.

Ok, so my wife and I purchased the MetroPCS varient (5020N) as an MP3/game play, etc phone for my children. I rooted one of them and gave it to my oldest son. He played around and changed his start up/shutdown sounds. It can be done through the sound menu, but that only works if you put the tone...

Oh, and some ROM's: Well, since no one has posted this in one place yet, here are some threads on XDA forums that are pertinent to the boot loader, rooting, recoveries and some ROM's: How to unlock the boot loader: xda-developers - View Single Post - [RC-FAQ] >> Frequently Asked Questions...
