    5.0 update

    I have a Moto G (2nd gen) bought last month in the US. I do use it in Israel, however I have a US DNS server service (unblock-us, which for instance allows me to watch netflix as if I was in the US). So I'd think I should get the update as any other user in the US, but no - it insists that my...

    Help SMS using wrong SIM

    My Moto G (2014) has suddenly started to try to use the 2nd SIM when sending a text. This fails because I have the first SIM set to provide data (the phone won't allow data over both SIMs simultaneously).

    How to display battery charge

    The battery icon appears at the top right of the screen on my Moto G EXT. But is there a way to get it to also display the amount of charge in the battery? The Samsung phone I just replaced had the icon and the number (say, 87%) right next to it. Can I get the Moto G EXT to do that? Thanks. JEP

    Can the Moto G Handle Netflix Video Streaming (on 3G)?

    I would like to buy the new 2014 Moto G for my teenager and was all set to go until I learned it did not have 4G LTE.

    Dual SIM

    I'm thinking of getting the Moto G (2014) and I'm wondering how the dual SIM works. Can it be set to default to one of the SIMs for phone calls, messages and data? I'm in the UK if that makes any difference.

    Help Folders and shortcuts disappearing

    Twice in the first couple of days I've had the Moto G (2014) it has lost 2 folders that I created on the home screen containing shortcuts to apps. It also lost shortcuts from other folders I created, so it's as if shortcuts are just disappearing. Has anyone else seen this?

    Help Moto G - Widgets?

    I just got the new Moto G (2014). On pressing the Apps button there is no tab for widgets. Widgets are listed along with apps but dragging them to a screen just places the shortcut there, it doesn't install the widget. I have checked the Enable Widgets option in settings. What am I missing?
