    Just received OTA notification

    Got the notification yesterday too. Wasn't expecting this. Waiting to hear some feedback before I pull the trigger.... Never mind! Checked the link above and saw the feedback I needed. Seems to be just a maintenance update with no reported issues. Will install this afternoon. Posted via...

    traded down to a moto x

    I'm with you, Louis. Really love my Moto X 2013! Love the size, near stock Android, and the things that Motorola has added. Like you I worry that Lollipop might "hamstring" the phone. Kit Kat works just fine. I've been running Lollipop on my Nexus 7 (2013) and have gotten used to it, so if...

    Oh.... Yeah. Now that you mention it. Thanks! I too have tried uninstalling Assist and Google App and reinstalling with no joy. Hoot Posted via Android Central App on my Nexus 7 (2013)

    Google update breaks Moto Assist on Moto-X (2013)!!! (4.4.4)

    UPDATE BELOW! Still running KitKat 4.4.4 (Thankfully), but the last two updates to "Google" (Google search, Google Now, Google App., whatever they're calling it now) causes Moto Assist to not function when in listening mode after receiving a text or phone call. This sucks when using a Motorola...

    Verizon Moto X: Asurion Will Give You a Moto Maker Device If You Customized

    I just had to use that crap insurance, and believe me or not, you do NOT want it! My wife literally fought with them, got hung up on twice when put on hold, and was told repeatedly that the Moto X was no longer made! When she finally proved to them that it was still in production, they only...

    Motorola Assist and Bluetooth

    That's exactly how mine is doing and what I was thinking! On well, at least while playing with it I figured out how to get Sync to read the texts to me and respond with canned messages.... To bad. Thanks for the reply! If anyone has gotten theirs to work with Ford sync, please chime in...

    Motorola Assist and Bluetooth

    Does the driving feature of assist read your text over you car system speakers when connected via Bluetooth? I have not been able to find an answer to this anywhere. I tried using this feature yesterday. It knows when I'm driving, receives the texts, does not read them to me (that I can...

    Moto X: Can you turn off the Touchless Control voice commands?

    Re: Can you turn off the Touchless Control voice commands? I agree with the shorting of the activation phrase. At least down to just "OK Google".... How about "OK Moto"? I haven't found a way, yet. Hoot Posted via Android Central App
