Still sitting on December 1 security patch and Android 7.0. Pretty safe to assume that tweet was false. At least I still like my G6, battery life has been great and performance is awesome, I'm happy I didn't pay an arm and a leg for it. Koodo G6 user here. I'll post back if I get any updates.

I just tried out the display size change, dropped it to 1080p and 400 density, I really like it so far. Performance gains if any seem negligible, but I'll see how my SOT is after this charge, I typically get 5 hours SOT over LTE and about 7 at home on wifi (not using LTE, signal is good and...

I have been with Koodo for a few years, its Telus/Bell towers from what I understand anyway. I have never had any issues to be honest, I have gone through a few phones from them (I buy them and then resell them when I want something different) and always just ordered it online as well. All of...

I'm still sitting on 7.0 with December security patch. Carrier is Koodo (Telus) in Canada. Bought mine from Koodo direct, said Telus on the box haha

There are so many things that can cause it. I've even had an app just randomly start using background services and toasting my battery. For the most part now though, I haven't had any issues. Battery life on this phone is solid and I have a Mixza 128gb SD card in it. I have location on high...

I'm sorry I didn't respond before now. You need to enable File Transfers on your phone. with the phone plugged in, swipe down from the top notification shade and select the white dialog box that has "usb for charging" iirc in it. Change it to MTP for file transfers and then your Moto G should...

Android file transfer is a temperamental program at best I have found. The odd time it works with my phone. I assume you mean MTP Protocol (for transferring files) in the drop down notification that displays when you plug your phone in right? If so, I would recommend trying "Commander One -...

Re: Im using moto X play, why does battery drains fast if Im browsing on Chrome ? Yeah I'm not sure then that is very weird. I don't have the mobile data issue at all anymore. Facebook would cause it sometimes but I just deleted that POS software. Posted via the Android Central App

If you unlock the bootloader, that will erase the phone. I wonder if the unsuccessful attempt partially wiped something out and is now causing a shutdown. Maybe try a factory reset, but I have a feeling you may be required to reflash the stock ROM. I would start by erasing the cache and that in...

Re: Im using moto X play, why does battery drains fast if Im browsing on Chrome ? As with every major OS update, did you clear cache files and that? No issues like that here when I was using Chrome. I'm still using Opera however, works much better this way. Posted via the Android Central App

Re: Im using moto X play, why does battery drains fast if Im browsing on Chrome ? I'm using opera and it works nicely, not draining my battery. There is a fork of the Chromium browser that is modified specifically for Qualcomm Chips and it really speeds things up a bit too. Maybe check that...

The chop feature wasn't on my MM update. Not sure why the moto g got that but not the X play. Actually would have been useful to be honest. Posted via the Android Central App

Action launcher 3 Just want simple. I like it. Posted via my Moto X Play

Have you tried a different camera App? I'm using Google Camera on mine and find that it works much better than the stock camera app. Also has more settings for picture size and that. I'm sure there are many other, even better camera apps on the play store. I like the default Moto camera, but...

I had to do the same. Kind of a pain for those who don't want to format it. I'm using Linux so I don't think it's a specific OS, just Marshmallow. Posted via my Moto X Play
