casualbiker Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 For a £99 (5,000b) phone I have to say totally happy with my Motorola Moto G purchased from Tesco (UK). This morning had the update to 4.4.4, brilliant. I would buy another Motorola again (presuming this continues with the new owners) Never again for a low or medium budget Samsung. Wife's Samsung is still on Jellybean even though Samsung have recently released a '2' version of her phone with Kitkat (seems same spec though) Sent from my XT1032 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunSeek01 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Darn, I'm in the States and my Moto G is still on 4.2.2. Great phone though, Google still gives Lenova (Owner of Motorola now) first updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fasteddie Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Thanks for the heads up, updating mine now, though to be honest, every time I've updated android before I've lost something I liked. Incidentally, that's a great price, is it unlocked? I bought the 1033 dual sim from china for £150, unlocked. I have to say, for the price, this is the most awesome phone ever.

I got it from Tesco (UK) I actually paid £89 because I used a £10 online shopping discount .. and then got a code unlock for £2.99 off EBay. Vodafone are still doing offers around £99 but I'm not 100% sure they are vanilla Android or packed with vodashit!

turgid Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Can you tell me if the Moto G has Thai language support? Friend of mine wants one but only if she can eventually pass it to her sister when the next one comes along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casualbiker Posted July 27, 2014 Author Share Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) I presume so it's Android. Don't they all! Just checked. Yes Sent from my XT1032 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Edited July 27, 2014 by casualbiker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turgid Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Thanks very much. This video said no but it from last year so I assume it was added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shurup Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Google still gives Lenova (Owner of Motorola now) first updates. My Sony Z1 has this 4.4.4 update for a month already. So Motorola comes 3rd, (after the Nexus devices and Z1 and perhaps few other Sony models). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Motorola comes 3rd, (after the Nexus devices and Z1 and perhaps few other Sony models). Actually the Moto G in the States got 4.4.4 about 6 weeks ago. It's been rolling out to other countries. There is also the subtle difference of approx 15,000baht in price. My Moto G cost 5,000baht your Sony Z1 20,000baht. But we are both happy, so all is good!

fasteddie Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Not so happy with my update, apps won't update and new apps won't install off play store. Anybody else having problems after 4.4.4 update? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casualbiker Posted August 16, 2014 Author Share Posted August 16, 2014 Nope. No problems. But I haven't downloaded many apps since upgrade. Maybe tell me what apps and I will try them see if problems. This is my upgrade : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fasteddie Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 I've had to delete that one, I've had it three years but just recently it's turned into an adfest! My main problem turns out Play Store would not update over data, soon as I connected to wi/fi it updated and everything is now hunky dory, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dddave Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 What are some of the highlights of 4.4.4? I had heard it had a stricter DRM profile. Any signs of enhanced filtering? My Zenphone 5 is supposed to update sometime in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Zenphone 5 is supposed to update sometime in the near future. .FLAC files play without white noise is the biggest for me. OpenSSL bugs were fixed in 4.4.2 > 4.4.3/4.4.4. My network signal isn;t as good as with 4.4.4 as 4.4.2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
