For anyone after the Dual sim 16GB version their being sold on ebay (delivered from India):

New Launch Motorolla Moto G 3rd Generation Dual Sim 1.2Ghz Quad Core 4G SHIP DHL | eBay

Shame I didn't see this a few days ago as I advised a colleague to buy the 2nd Gen dual sim, as I didn't think he'd be able to buy a 3rd Gen dual sim in the UK.

Anyone else having problems Unlocking Bootloader? I contacted Level 2 & Level 3 support at Motorola. They ran my IMEI and my Moto G 2015 is eligible for Bootloader Unlocking but when I try and run my fastboot code it says "Your device does not qualify for Bootloader Unlocking..."

Does anyone know if you can buy a snapper case for the 2015 model as you could for the original 4.5" models?? My wife has the Mk1 2012 model and really likes this case and would upgrade if this phone also had the snap case..

This issue was only in front cam and rear cam working well, Then i contacted moto tech through live chat they told to do following steps,

1. Clear data n cache of camera app
2. Install 3rd party camera app and check ( I Installed candy camera and checked, there is no issue while using that app)
3. check any software update is there
4. Do factory reset

I have followed all this instructions but still issue was not solved . Please suggest me how to solve this issue.

I reformatted 64 gb card and it appears to be working.

Just received my Moto G 2/8 yesterday. Happy with everything but it has no Gyroscope so I can't take Photosphere pictures. Use my phone as much for a camera as anything else..... Disappointed!!!! Not sure if it is a dealbreaker!!!

 

[Avi Harriman]

Nope!

Has anyone had any success activating, and using, this phone on the Sprint Network?

Didn't you just get your G3? You shouldn't have to factory reset yet, but if you think it might possibly help better to do it now than wait.

 

[NottsMan]

Yes. Bought the 16/2 version and received it next day.

I have been a BB user since 2011, but I had a nasty accident with my Z10 recently so I've decided to take the android-plunge (since the Z10 already had me running android apps). Bought a Moto G3 on the 23rd from WIND. Loving it so far!

I only have the 1G version; will it be able to handle Marshmallow if/when it is released?

"1G" version?!?! What is your Model Number and Hardware SKU from Settings->About Phone?

 

[Ara Wagoner]

Pretty sure they mean the 1GB/8GB model.

Yes, sorry, that's exactly what I meant.

 

[acejavelin]

Yes, sorry, that's exactly what I meant.

Oh,duh... I don't know why I didn't get that, my bad.

And to answer your original question, yes, it should handle Marshmallow just fine.
