I find where I can clear the cache for phone memory, but how do you clear SD card cache?

 

[bh5213]

Nothing for mine yet.... patiently awaiting.

And you'll keep on waiting for a long time, guys.
Motorola should compensate MXPE customers for taking their money but not keeping their promises of timely updates. They owe us at least that.

They promised timely updates?

They promised timely updates?

I think they probably at least intimated that with emphasizing it being "Pure" and not being tied to carrier issues but that was two years ago when it came out so I can't be sure.

Under the settings - storage, I get options of Android OS, internal storage and external SD card storage. You get the same option to clear the cache once you click on external SD card

When I click on so card storage, I get a explore like list of everything on my SD card! Clear cache isn't an option.

Still waiting on mine too.

This update seems to be specific to Sprint. Verizon are currently being delayed, as far as I know.
So as I thought, this is very limited small scaled rollout.
The rest of us will probably wait for months till we get it.

Why do people keep saying "only Sprint users are getting this"? We have seen verifiable upgrades offered and applied via OTA to Sprint, US Cellular, Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile users in the US. I will acknowledge that the numbers outside of Sprint are extremely low, but is this planned or coincidence? Moto will never tell.

What we do know is on the official forums Moto reps have confirmed the roll-out has begun and that is slower than normal, but they are not elaborating as to why... We can guess though in looking through various forums and users with problems after the update, the biggest one is that several users have reported hard-bricking if the device drains it's battery until it shuts off. It is unclear if it is doing the normal Android safe shutdown, or the device is just popping off because the battery has deteriorated significantly enough that once it gets to the shutdown threshold it doesn't have enough power to safely shutdown before popping off.

Will we wait months to get it? Probably... this upgrade has been plagued with problems from the very beginning and if you read some of the posts from people who where on the beta and soak tests, it was very bad and had lots of bricking (soft and hard) of devices for test users, and what normally lasts 30-45 days lasted almost 6 months.

Am I justifying it? Nope... but it is what it is.

I will acknowledge that the numbers outside of Sprint are extremely low, but is this planned or coincidence? Moto will never tell. We do know that if you take a Sprint SIM and place it in the device for a couple days you still won't get offered the upgrade either. EDIT: Well, according to users this morning on the official Lenovo forums, placing a Sprint SIM (active or not) in MXPE will get you the update according to several users (it wasn't getting it previously), so either another batch of updates has begun or the Sprint users theory gets more validity. (This thread, around mid-page 143)

Basically, if your IMEI is up you get it, if it isn't you don't. (And that doesn't get into the whole issue that came to light recently of Moto's upgrade servers keeping track of upgrades via IMEI and not offering previous updates again or updates where it doesn't have a record of you getting a previous update that is required)
