Motorola Moto G6, Moto G6 Play, Moto E5 Play, and Moto E5 Plus First Impressions

Kyle Wiggers April 19, 2018

Motorola, the Chicago-based subsidiary of Lenovo, stumbled upon a winning strategy with the Moto E and Moto G series. The mid-to-low-tier smartphones remain incredibly popular in developing markets such as India, where the company has shipped more than six million units to date. But they're also a top seller in the U.S., where they're subsidized...

Motorola’s Success: The Repertoire That Saved Them

Mario Tomás Serrafero February 3, 2015

Motorola had a big turn-around in just a few years. While their Droid line-up was one of the devices to kick-start the hearts of Android fans, they had a short period of time where their direction was not all that clear. For a while they released devices like the Droid Razr that weren't bad in...

How to Control Both Moto G and Moto E LEDs

GermainZ November 28, 2014

Notification LEDs offer a great way to check for notification at a glance on the Moto G (2013) and Moto E. That being said, you may want greater control over them to check on charging status as well or even your eMMC (internal or external storage) activity. All of this is possible, assuming your device...

MultiROM Ported to the Moto E

Will Verduzco September 2, 2014

Few categories of Android development are as intrinsically interesting as the ability to boot into multiple operating systems. Multiboot, as it's most commonly known, allows one to do exactly this. The most popular implementation of multiboot that we've seen on the Android platform comes in the form of XDA Recognized Developer Tasssadar's MultiROM. MultiROM has been officially and unofficially ported...

Let’s the Games Begin! SlimKat and Unofficial CM11 Ported to the Moto E

Tomek Kondrat June 28, 2014

The Moto G, which was released back in 2013, has seen great success. The cheap and powerful device almost immediately found its way into the pockets of many XDA users around the world. Lenovo, after purchasing Motorola, decided to release an even more budget-friendly successor, the Moto E. The Moto E's firmware is close to AOSP, but in contrast to Nexus...

The Moto E is One Step Closer to Source-Built ROM Goodness

Tomek Kondrat June 12, 2014

Motorola released two very successful devices last year: the Moto G and Moto X. Both were (and still are) great smartphones in their respective categories. And by releasing the G, Motorola showed other OEMs that good devices don't have to be very expensive. Not too long ago, Motorola released the even more wallet friendly Moto E, which is poised to conquer the developing markets. Right after...

Motorola Now Lets You Unlock the Moto E Bootloader

Will Verduzco May 20, 2014

We've talked quite a bit about the recently released Moto E in the past week. From its official launch to a system dump, root, and unofficial TWRP recovery, the device has had an active start. And thanks to its incredibly low, unsubsidized price point, relatively decent specs, and hallmark Motorola support, it's no big surprise that...

Root and Unofficial TWRP Recovery Available for the Moto E

Tomek Kondrat May 18, 2014

It's been a short while since Motorola, now owned by Lenovo, announced the Moto E. In many ways, the E is quite similar to the extremely popular Moto G thanks to its affordable price point and great user experience. This cheap, but capable good device may well become a big success. The Moto E was launched with a near stock...

Forums added for the Moto E, LG G3, and LG L3 II, L5 II, L7 II, L9 II

Will Verduzco May 14, 2014

We recently added a few forums for some upcoming devices from LG and Motorola. First up is Motorola's offering. Back near the tail end of last year, Motorola released the highly regarded (and budget friendly) Moto G. What made this device special wasn't its spec sheet or its hardware design, but rather the fact that Motorola...
