No mention of G4 Play on Moto Mobility - Moto G4 Play Guides, News, & Discussion

I was yesterday scrambling my head cause i couldnt understand why there was no mention of G4 Play on their website. Like https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/country-selector/motog the option are
MOTO G5s Plus - (2017)
MOTO G5s - (2017)
MOTO G Plus 5th Gen. - (2017)
MOTO G 5th Gen. - (2017)
MOTO G Plus 4th Gen. - (2016)
MOTO G 4th Gen. - (2016)
MOTO G Turbo Edition
MOTO G 3rd Gen. - (2015)
MOTO G 2nd Gen. - (2014)
MOTO G - (2013)
no mention of our device.on here also https://www.motorola.in/products/smartphones. I kinda feel terrified about it. Only i found the mention of G4 Play was at Software updates page: https://motorola-mobility-en-in.custhelp.com/app/software-upgrade-news/g_id/2014/action/auth .

You're paranoid, found the product page in both Spain and US sites
https://www.motorola.es/products/moto-g-play
https://www.motorola.com/us/products/moto-g-play
Don't be so alarmist. Neither Lenovo nor moto are that nefarious (except for the whole kernel shenanigans)

After a bit of google i could find their Product page, but the mistake that moto did is that it did not listed the device on the page. Its not something that i am getting paranoid about, i am just stating the facts and asking bluntly your opinion for this mistake.
P.S: Couldn't reply earlier as the thread was closed by the moderators, but he seemed to have reopened it again(thanks for this mod).

It's kind of reasonable that the mods closed this one, it presents unacurate data.
It's just 2 clicks away from the main moto page, I didn't had to google it or nothing, and sorry for the hyperbole, I wasn't trying to be rude.

Moto 'feature' device pages are often incomplete (annoying!). Really depends what gizmos/promo Lenovo is trying to push at the time. Scroll to the bottom and click on appropriate family link. Usually a better choice.

Again, that's the FEATURES list, it's never complete, and always features the latest phones, plus the ones they're pushing based on the categories and markets that they're currently targeting, going to the moto g family page there's our device. this thread is unhelpful.

Agreed; will ask mod to close.
Edit: links are helpful to noobs; further dialog is not.

[Q] Custom Roms for MOTO G?

Anyone have any recommendations for custom roms on the Moto G? I have my Moto G rooted, so I'm investigating next steps.
I'm looking for something that provides increased security. Do any of the custom roms help with this? Or, are the custom roms more aimed at GUI customization? I really don't care if the icon is more fancy or a blue color. I really want something that gives me functional improvement.
thanks,
John
There are no real usable Custom ROMs yet, just a few that were put together but don't boot most of the time.

Please try reading a bit more. The same question is just 2 posts below yours and you would have got the answer for your 2nd question about ROM recommendation in that thread itself.

I did read that thread. That post is about 2nd Gen moto G's. Not xt 1032's. Even reading that thread does not give an answer like you suggest it does.
I've found an article on the internet that says there are 5 roms available for gen 1 moto g's and it gives a brief description of each, but as a new member, I was not able to post the link to it. Says I have to post 10 messages first before I am able to post links. However, the article does not give the pros and cons of each rom.

You may want to rename this forum Gen2 or XT106x.
I purchased my Gen1 in 2014. Wasn't aware that's what folks are calling Gen2.

Yup, you are right but don't know who can change it. I think admin can change that
I see custom Roms have started to appear, but it seems they are mostly for 1068 dual Sim, no love for 1064? How hard is it to port between these 2 models?

[Q] Buying Moto X verizon developer edition [HELP]

I want to buy the Verzion Moto X devel. edition. I want to know will this work on straight talk?
Check the bands available on the phone you're interested in then compare them to the bands Straight Talk uses. If they match, the answer is yes. Or Google 'Verizon Moto X developer edition on straight talk'.

I googled "Verizon Moto X developer edition on straight talk" (looks something like this)
https://www.google.com/search?q=Mot...on straight talk&num=100&newwindow=1&ie=UTF-8
Then I clicked on the very first link and found the answer. And then just to confirm the answer, I clicked on a few more links. And then if I still wasn't sure, I could and would check if my phone is compatible with Straight Talk on their website. And then if I still wasn't sure, I'd give up on life.

AzznizHat is right, everyone that want's to use the Q and A section of XDA should just give up on life, because Google. Hilarious.

Moto X Xt1052 5.0.2 soak test and how to get it? India?

Hi,
I have an Indian variant of Moto X . Can anyone give the details about the soak test and how to take part in it.
Register for Motorola feedback network and wait
Waiting for someone else to capture the OTA for the soak test for the XT1052 and post it here on XDA, like the other variants...

So you're waiting on someone to break the MFN agreement (which is worded like a typical Non-Disclosure Agreement), and post the file... Which could jeopardize future "Soak" tests.
Also, if you haven't noticed, Moto has submitted take down notices to XDA, and they are complying... It wouldn't surprise me if Moto was doing this everywhere.
Its beginning to look like your choices are... Sign up for the MFN and hope to be selected, or wait until the update starts pushing to everyone.
lmao... I just noticed XDA took down all the ota's. That's what people get. People will be upset. But should be grateful for not bricking devices over stupid choices and breaking the soak rules.

Btw "variant"
When I check for update I get a message 'unable to check for updates at present. Please try again later' instead of the usual Your Phone is already Up to date or whatever it used to say.
I dunno if this is a good sign or not. Can anyone else with a XT1052 confirm?

You will be hard pressed to locate a rootable 5th gen Fire. Your best best is a 3rd (not 4th) gen HDX. 2nd gen devices are also rootable but they are rather slow relative to today's standards.

Nope - haven't spoon fed since our youngest figured out the basics. Rooting Amazon devices is not for the faint of heart. Research is your friend.

Lol. Actually did the support community a favor as you'd be back for the next spoonful in no time. As previously mentioned 3rd gen HDX is your best bet if you want a rootable Amazon gizmo. Everything else is hit/miss or based on dated tech. The dead speaks.

Maze Mobile out of Business?

Hi,
if you check the http://www.mazemobile.com/ webside you can see that it is sold.
You can also read a lot of rumor that maze mobile is out of business.
There is no official statement yet, but it really looks like they shut down there business.
I am really sad, I like my Maze Alpha X but with this news the Smartphone will never get a Softwareupdate again?
Will there be a way to get custom ROMS with newer Android versions running on the phone?
Cheers,
Kai
Apparently InnJoo bought Maze. So it's not a dead device. It just needs devs.

The issue is that Maze Alpha X and other versions aren't available on Innjoo website you provided. I am a little bit skeptical of this information.
