Moto G 2nd Gen

User Manuals for Moto G

Moto G (Moto G4, Moto G 1st Gen, Moto G 2014 and Moto G 2015) is probably the best budget-friendly Android phone you can get each year in 2016, 2013, 2014 and 2015 respectively.

And in 2017, you can get Moto G5 and Moto G5 Plus.

Of course. Moto G6 (Moto G 2018, 3 models) was released in 2018 and Moto G7 (Moto G 2019, 4 models) in 2019.

Unlike other Android vendors, Motorola tries hard to make the phone not only affordable but also easy to use.

But for many new Moto G owners, an official user guide is still needed to get started quickly.

This is the purpose of this page.

All these Moto G user manuals are in PDF format. It means you can download and read them offline on your PC, tablet or phones.

Of course, we also have 3 other sections to help you use Moto G:

  1. Moto G how-to guides section. You can find detailed step-by-step guides on how to use some features of Moto G, or how to configure Moto G to get desired phone behaviour.

How to remove Moto G back cover?

Why you must remove Moto G back cover

For Moto G (including Moto G 2nd Gen), the SIM card slot is under the back cover. So,  to insert SIMcard, you must remove Moto G back cover.

In addition, the micro SD card slot in Moto G 2014 is also under the back cover. You have to remove the Moto G back cover to put in your SD card.

However, for many new Moto G or Moto E owners,  it can be frustrating to find the correct way to remove Moto G back cover due to Motorola’s unique design for the back cover.

You cannot peel off the Moto G back cover.

Please follow this guide if you want to remove Moto G back cover properly. Otherwise, you may damage the back cover.

How to remove Moto G back cover? (for Moto G and Moto G2, Moto G3, Moto G4, and Moto G5)
