I just bought a Verizon prepaid Moto G and a few days ago I got the 4.4.4 update. Now at least once a day, when I open the dialer or people app it will instantly disappear. It remains in the task list and if I bring it up it just dissapears again. Even if I swipe it away it still does it...

I have Google + photos auto backup disabled in the Google + settings as well as the photo app settings and my sync settings. Every time I take a picture, it will turn itself back on in my sync settings and I will find the photo has been uploaded. It's still off in all the other places. I prefer...

My roommate's Moto G just stopped sending and receiving SMS messages a few days ago. I already tried clearing the messenger app data and cache, booting into recovery mode and clearing the system cache, and force stopping all the third party apps she has. She only has about a dozen so it didn't...

I've read various solutions but nothing works. Creating a .nomedia file prevents them from showing up in the music player but it also removes them from the ringtones & notification lists. I keep them in /sdcard/media/audio/ringtones etc. It's not a huge deal but it's annoying having albums...

http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-S2-Multi-functional-Connection-Kit/dp/B006MJZOMW/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top I was considering using an old windows XP tower with my 500GB external drive or getting an OTG cable but then I found this. It looks pretty cool. I would use google drive but my upload speed...

The main reason I've stuck with a laptop for watching video Is because the main site I go to requires flash. After sideloading flash on my phone it didn't work very well so I uninstalled the flash player. Now I went back to the same site just to make sure the flash player was completed removed...

If so would keeping it plugged in to the charger for hours at a time while watching Netflix be detrimental to the phone or battery? I'm concerned about overheating. I'm trying to decide between a Chromebook, another laptop, my phone with Chromecast, a tablet with Chromecast, or a set top box...

I ordered these from eBay and the first one had a really bad orange peel/rainbow effect so I thought it was defective. Turns out 3 out of the 6 pack all looked like this. At that point I gave up assuming all of them are that way. It's strange because I've never had this with any regular static...

I still haven't gotten it just curious.

Any idea what this file may be? When I show hidden files in ES file explorer it's in my internal storage directory. I don't remember seeing it on my Samsung.

I just got a Moto G and it has Android 4.3 which is supposed to support emojis. I have the Touchpal X keyboard but all of the emojis are still showing up as android faces as well as in black and white. I tried the Google keyboard and couldn't get them to work either! Does anyone else have this...

I am trying to save my wife's voicemail using Audacity to record them as shown in this video. The problem is when I connect the audio jack to the mic input on my laptop, the voicemail still play through the phone speakers. Anyone have any idea what may be wrong? I just tested it on my Moto G...

I'm surprised the Moto G doesn't come with a data cable but I found a data cable from an old mp3 player, hopefully it will work just to transfer files.

The closest best buy that had it in stock was an hour away but since they didn't offer the 2 year accident protection plan unless you bought it in the store, I made the drive. I could have got the standard protection plan but I wanted the extra protection lol. I wish it were a 16GB but I'll...

But it's becoming really hard. First there is the time issue which admittedly doesn't bother me much and only happens every few months but it's still a little annoying. Second, there's the lag when I pull down the notification bar which I thought I had fixed by clearing my call log and system...
