    Scroll/Tap issues / Screen Sensitivity

    I've just bought a 3rd Gen Moto G, running MM, and I can't scroll though anything without links opening and 'liking' things - the screen is hugely jerky and oversensitive (particularly compared to the 1st Gen, which still works like a dream). I've set touch delay to long and decreased the mouse...

    How to manage media files?

    I transplanted the SD card from my old phone (4.0 ICS) and set it up as "Portable Storage". The Moto G copied all the audio/image/video files onto internal storage and won't let me delete them. I want to reserve internal storage for apps and keep my many gigs of AV on the card. What do I do...

    Just got a moto g

    Just got a moto g3 from best buy the other day. So far I really like it. I think it's fast enough for my use. Just talking, texting, and web browser and video. I don't usually game. But since I bought it I notice it is getting way hot. I know phones do but just a few minutes talking to best buy...

    Phone so slow, screen does not light for incoming calls...

    I believe I made a huge mistake buying an Android phone. I've tried to use this for about 10 months. Currently the phone response is so slow, the screen doesn't light up for an incoming call! After the caller gives up, then maybe I can get the stupid phone to start responding to input! If I...

    Anyone else experiencing random carrier signal loss?

    I've had the phone since late September, previously used a Huawei g312, but it was getting old. With the old phone, I never lost signal. Might not have always had the best connection, but it was always usable for my needs. 3 year WIND subscriber, for what it's worth. However, since upgrading, I...

    Accessories Apple earbuds not working anymore

    As the title suggests, my earbuds stopped working today on my phone. I tested the earbuds with all my other various devices (laptop, tablet, PSP, Vita, and 3DS), and the earbuds work just fine. It's only my phone that won't play audio through the earbuds. I also tested my studio headphones...

    Should I update to Marshamallow?

    Hi, I can update my Moto G3 to Marshmallow. I'm not sure if I should though. Lollipop does everything fine for me, and I've heard there are lots of issues regarding the touchscreen and very bad battery life. Should I? Thanks, qwertyK

    Battery charges really quickly?

    Hi, I recently bought a Moto G3. I want to know, is it normal for my battery to charge very quickly? So it was 39%, and I've been charging it for about 5-10 minuets and its 56%. Is this normal? I'd say the battery life is pretty good once I've optimised it (brightness at medium and 4G turned...

    Adoptable storage with 3rd gen + a few other q's.

    Looking around for a possible new phone with VM. My LG G Stylo has been flickering oddly lately. Found that this is a hardware issue, so here I am.

    Problems with SD card after Marshmallow

    I haven’t found a fix for this problem, despite a fair amount of research. Clearly, it’s related to using the SD card as internal storage, but the erratic nature of the events make it difficult to pin down a cause and remedy. I have enjoyed my Motorola 3G. That is, until the Marshmallow...

    How to see pics transferred from mac?

    Hi I transferred some pics from my mac to my Moto G's Pictures folder. Now how do I look at them. Do I need a special app? Looking at the ones I have, I don't see how to do that. The google Photos app just appears to want to sync things, or am I wrong? best roy
