Hi,
I am planning to buy this device, but the Flipkart listing shows only b/g/n. Considering Wi-Fi is the only upgrade to the last year's moto G, can anyone tell me whether this is indeed true (i.e. no AC Wi-Fi for Moto G2 India)?
Bump Guys. Anybody?
Yes it's true. There is no ac band support

AHHHhhh crap, I have an AC gigabit router. Any recommendations as to where I can get an AC version. I won't mind overpaying a bit.
Is no Wi-Fi + LTE a hardware issue or just disabled in software?
If you are set on having AC WiFi then you'll have to buy another phone with it, there is no Moto G version with AC at this time, you can get 45Mbit/s on the Moto Gs 2.4GHz N so you'll have to weigh up if you have a need for the faster AC or want a 5GHz only network or you want this phone.
If you're happy to pay more then go for the Nexus 5 stock Android and it has AC but it is double the price.

Thanks, it just seemed unfair to me that they stripped one of the major upgrades over last year's Moto G.
I have ordered one , but this festival rush has made shipping too slow

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeey,
While I was surfing Amazon today for LG G2 accessories, I found this AMAZING portable charger! which can charge up to 3 devices at once!
here is the link: amazon.com/Astro3-12000mAh-Worlds-Fastest-Triple-Port-Highest-Energy-efficiency/dp/B00CEZBKTO?tag=at88-20

Not bad for $49. I already have a smaller 1 device portable battery charger but this price is nice for a bigger unit. These are SUPER handy to have if you travel. I don't know how many times this and my Freedom Pop 4G wireless unit has bailed me out.
Some other really cool accessories:
FreedomPop (Free 500mb Cellular Data every month; great for emergencies) http://www.freedompop.com/
Portable Router (Also great for emergencies) http://www.amazon.com/TP-LINK-TL-MR3020-Wireless-Portable-Compatible/dp/B006DEBXD0
Will it fast charge the phone? I bought a RAVpower on amazon on one of the black friday deals and it only slow charges. I've tried the OEM G2 cable and everything. I can only get ~900ma to the phone with it.
This is the one I have:

Is that at88-20 on the end of the url your referal code? You posted three deals on Amazon and they all have them.

I didn't try it yet! However according to its capacity and output(12000mAh) I think YEA it will
and to add on that If you have an D802 you can flash a custom recovery and Enable fast charge on the kernel which will give you a boost in charging time
I have this RAVpower battery http://smile.amazon.com/RAVPower-10...=UTF8&qid=1388117658&sr=1-7&keywords=ravpower
Using the short cable that comes with the battery I get 1100-1200 mah charging which is pretty fast.
I understand that it has the correct chipset inside the phone but does anyone know if this phone is supported by the quick charging? I sold my wife on the technology but now I have no idea if it will actually work?
I don't think it supports the new Qualcom Quick Charge standard, that said, just get a 2 Amp charger and it will charge very fast. Charging from a USB 2 port or a 500 mA charger and it will take forever. I use a Samsung tablet charger and get <1.5 hours to full charge.
Qualcom 801 & above support Quick Charge, G only has a 400

So, Qualcomm Says Moto G doesn't support Quick Charge
But Motorola Turbo Charges page says it supports latest Motorola Phones

So, did anyone figure out if Moto G(2014) supports quick charge or not?
It doesn't.

Not sure if they're compatible with the Moto g 2014. You can call Motorola and ask.

I made a conversation with Motorola staff, he has confirmed about the quick charge 2.0, moto g support it:
[07:20:32 AM] Hi, my name is Wilson. How may I help you?
[07:20:43 AM] Wilson: Good Morning!
[07:21:17 AM] khoa: hi, i just want to ask about the quick charge 2.0 tech
[07:21:34 AM] khoa: does the moto g 2013 support that?
[07:22:36 AM] Wilson: Absolutely! This device is compatible with any USB port on the Moto G versions.
[07:24:35 AM] Wilson: Hi I noticed you have been away from the chat session for more than 2 minutes. I’ll stay here until the next minute so I can continue to help you with your concern.
[07:25:22 AM] khoa: but on the internet they say that moto g doesn't support quick charge 2.0
[07:26:10 AM] khoa: qualcomm also doesn't list moto g in those devices that support quick charge 2.0
[07:28:11 AM] Wilson: I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. Actually this device will support All of the Moto versions since last year. You will be able to use this charger in the Moto G.
[07:28:54 AM] khoa: ok, thank you

AFAIK, even if a phone is quick charge capable, you need a charger that's capable of charging that fast.
Now as per the thread here, quick charge is compatible with this moto g, hence the need for quick charger 2.0

yes it will charge the phone,a usb does that also, and we too want to charge it ,but hammering heads to find out the speed.
But it is quite logical that results will not be that great as if they were so ,then in moto g feature list we would have seen quick charge.
even we all want to try as if charging time gets a hour short then it may worth it

is exactly what i said -.- btw i googled a bit and found this:
snapdragon 805: https://www.qualcomm.com/products/snapdragon/processors/805
Qualcomm® Quick Charge™ 2.0 technology
SMB1356/7/8/9
Integrated HW
Voltage In = 9V, up to 3A out
snapdragon 801: https://www.qualcomm.com/products/snapdragon/processors/801
Quick Charge 2.0
PM8941
Chipset SW
Voltage In = 9V, 2.5A out
snapdragon 400: https://www.qualcomm.com/products/snapdragon/processors/400
Qualcomm® Quick Charge™ 2.0 technology
PM8x26
Chipset SW
Voltage In = 9V, 1.5A out
i think that this means that moto g has the capability, just like the moto x 2014 (snapdragon 801 and officially advertised by motorola), but seems it may not be as fast as snapdragon 801 or 805.
Does anyone has a "Quick charger"? so we can know if the Moto G 2014 has o has not this feature.

So as your facts say, moto g will take approx 2x time to full charge as of moto x 2014 ,bt g has 2070 mAh battery that is less than x's,
In a stroke we may be benefited from quick charge 2.0 too but with underachievements of Moto X capabilities
Just wondering if anyone has seen anything about wireless charging on the nexus 6. I have a nexus 5 and would hate to lose the money that I have invested in charging pads.
It's listed on the specs on MOTO's site. It's Qi wireless charging enabled, as reported by Motorola.

Moto's site confirms Qi Wireless Charging
This site also confirms Wireless Charging as well in the spec sheet. https://sites.google.com/a/pressatgoogle.com/android-10-15/nexus6
Its important to note however that carrier influence might affect the type of Wireless Charging available, for example AT&T's LG G3 variant was changed to support PMA Wireless charging over the original Qi support due to AT&T being a heavy supporter of the PMA standard. Whether AT&T forces a HW change on their Nexus Variant or not is up in the air, but is important to remember.
It will be Qi even on AT&T. There is only one version for North America. If there were two different standards there would be 2 different models.
take a look at the previous posts next time OK? It's not that hard.
I am wondering about the Qi wireless, Do they offer turbo charging or no difference regarding the turbo feature?
Wireless charging and turbo charging don't work together.
Gotcha thanks for the info.
Hi all,
I am from India and i just brought a new moto x(1st gen). I dont get a charger with the box. please anybody suggest me a gud charger. is our moto x supports turbo charging ???
You mention both 1st gen and 2nd Gen in your post. Which phone are you looking to get a charger for?
The 1st Gen (aka 2013) Moto X ships with a 1.15A (aka 1150mA) charger. Neither the phone, nor the charger support Turbo Charging. Standard 1A (aka 1000mA) or higher chargers with MicroUSB ends will work to charge it.
I don't have a 2nd Gen (2014) Moto X. But it and its included charger DO support turbo charging. As far as I know, you need a special charger that is compatible with Turbo charging if you want to make use of that feature. But standard 1A (1000mA) and up chargers will work to charge it at "regular" rates.
aside from the fact that we dont yet know which model you have to give you avalid answer this post belongs into the Q&A section
I've seen variation in charge times...
When i use a 1.2 Amp charger ... i can go from 10% to fully charged in ~1 hour . I have a Moto X (XT1053)
My partner has model : XT1052, and it doesn't charge as quickly - I'm not sure if it is because it is the wrong voltage (European model phone). i think Fast charge can be turned on or off at kernel level. Not sure about this however.
I think he is talking about the moto x 1st gen from flipkart which is available for Rs 18000 but without the adapter

If by "fast charge" you mean "turbo charge" like on the new X, that is a function of the new Qualcomm chip used in the 2nd Gen X. See -> https://www.qualcomm.com/products/snapdragon/quick-charge
As for the XT1053 vs XT1052 charging speed, they both take 5 Volt input which is standard for USB ports and MicroUSB chargers. The speed difference you are seeing could be due to the current supplied by the adapters (i.e. if your adapter is 1.2A and your partner uses a 750mA), OR if there are different apps running on the phone while charging. Example, if Google Maps/Navigation is running on the phone, it will charger slower than if GMaps/Navigation wasn't running.

I've found that some cables will not let the full current through that the charger is rated for. In not sure if it's due to voltage drop our what though, as I don't care enough to dig into it further.

Hello,
Thinking about getting this phone (own Mate 8 which is fantastic but need a phone a bit smaller also my bank's app don't support Huawei phones)
- I live in Europe (UK, PL, Germany), which version should I get, anything I need to know before buying. Is A3010 what I need or A3003
- Is call recording working? this is a must for me.
- whats the difference between 64 and 128 apart from the storage?
- is dual sim active?
- is nougat available
- battery life - in Mate 8 it's just fantastic, I get easily 7h sot, is it similar here?
- can I use car charger I use for Mate 8?
- any extras I need to buy that are different to my previous phones? OTG cable, car charger etc?
- wld u recommend any shop in Europe?
Thank you guys!
A3003 is for Europe. Call recording does work. Only difference on 64 and 128 is just capacity ram is still 6gb on both same color for both as well. Dual sim works of course or they wouldn't put it in the phone (duh). Nougat is available on oos and custom ROMs I think oos is at 7.1.1 and most custom ROMs are at 7.1.2 now I prefer a custom ROM. Battery life is good especially with dash charge to top up again real quick. Can't use car charger for mate 8 unless you don't mind not having dash charge otherwise you need the official dash car charger from oneplus. Don't use otg so not sure about that but I'm pretty sure one end of otg plugs into the phones charging port so unless the mate 8 is USB type c then you still have to get one that is. And I suggest getting everything from oneplus website directly meaning phone and accessories. Wouldn't trust getting the phone from anywhere else at all.
