• Please tell me that how can I fix the problem of the front camera atomatic mirror converted option in Moto g turbo

  • For Motorola camera app, if the Android version is Android 7.0 or 8.0, there is an option of "Selfie photo mirror" in camera settings. In this case, you need to switch to the front camera first, then pull out of the settings from the left side.

    However, if your camera settings is still a ring, then there is no option for this. You have to use photo editing apps to mirror the photo. You can try the free Google Snapseed app to do it easily.

• Hello. I want to purchase the Amazon Prime version of the Moto G4. I have Tmobile. I have read that it is possible to turn on wifi calling for Tmobile on the G4 but I can't find how to do so in the manuals or searching online. Any help appreciated.
  Also what is the easiest way to transfer my iPhone contacts/bookmarks / photos to the G4?
  And if all of my friends use iPhone imessaging, and I'm included on the messages, how will it appear on the G4 ?
  I'm anxious to get this phone but want to get these questions answered first. Thanks a lot.

  • Moto G4 doesn't have wifi calling options. For migrating iPhone data, there are many apps.

    For messages, Moto G4 has its own default messaging app. You can also use Google hangouts as default messaging app. Of course, you will get differently layout and different features. But you can read and manage text messages sent by your friends.

    Anyway, Android is quite different from iOS. And different vendors have different offers.

    • Thanks again. Great tips.

  • What exactly do you want to do? And what did you get when you try to do it?

• How do I stop my Moto G from giving me the error message "SD card unexpectedly removed. Unmount SD card before removing to avoid ..."? The message comes up within seconds of plugging the phone in to charge it, while transferring files to another device, as well as other random times throughout the day and night while it's turned on but not in use. The SD card was only added since August 2016.
  Initially, I turned off the phone, removed the card, reseated it, and turned the phone back on, which was a pain in the butt. Now I've taken to powering the phone off and restarting it, which clears the error and reloads the SD card, but doing this multiple times a day is troublesome.

  • It sounds like the SD card slot may have problems. Did you try a different SD card?

    • Turned out to be a bad SD card. No issues at all since I put in the new card. Woohoo! Yes, I did reinstall the first card, but the unmount error popped up again, so I'm sticking with the new card.

      • Thank you for sharing the update.

    • No, same SD card. I will get another one tomorrow & try it. :-/

• Thanks for your help. I didn't know that ... there's a lot I don't know. LOL

• My Moto G 2 data is not working in one particular sim even though I interchanged the sims from slot 1 to 2. Verified with network team found ok.also checked in other mobile data is working for that sim.also data selection option(2G or 3G) is not highlighted in that particular sim.what I have to do to make it work?

  • Did you test it with single sim card? What happens when you enabling mobile data? You can also check sim card status in settings - about the phone.

• Why can't moto G 1st Gen, just block a phone number like samsung or LG? The software only sends the number to a voice mail - what is the bloody point???

  • You can ask your carrier to block any numbers completely.

    • Dear Simon.
      Will Moto ever include a call block option that other manufacturers like Samsung do?
      I know there are 'lots of apps out there's that claim to block both calls and texts but i don't like them demanding access to my personal numbers? And the reality is that alot don't or they are selective as i have been reading in the comments section of several apps. They do come for free with viruses though!
      I updated to Moto g KitKat and was disappointed to find a simple 'regect' button was not included?
      Heather.

      • In Android Nougat, there is a call blocking option.

• I am using moto-g(1st gen) when I updated to lollipop5.1 from that day my Mobile was very slow & strucking.even I after 2 times factory reset also it was very slow plz just me what to do

  • After factory data reset, you should not install apps gradually to find out the culprit app.

• I've tried 3 different selfie sticks (different brands), but none of the shutter buttons take a picture, so I figured it must be the phone's settings. What do I need to do to get any of these sticks to work with my phone?

  • You should follow instructions of the manual of selfie sticks. Are they using Bluetooth or audio cable? Anyway, you can always check with the seller.

    Moto G should have no issue for Bluetooth based selfie stick. You need pair them before you can use the stick.

    • They were all cabled sticks, but after following each one's directions (plug in, open camera app, press shutter button on stick), none would snap a picture.

      On a whim, I tried yet another one last week, but still nothing.

      • You should get a Bluetooth one. Audio cable selfie stick is not universal. It only works with certain phone models.

• In Moto g(2015) with Android 6.0 how to transfer files from gallery/file manager to USB using OTG?

    But if you want, you can use third-party launchers.
