I recently bought a used Nexus 5 on Swappa for 165 USD, however it has a bad ESN. Be sure to thoroughly check if the phone is functional, a Nexus 5 for that cheap will likely have a crack on the screen or a bad ESN. Regardless, the phone should be bootloader unlockable and able to flash custom...

I have also tried a Lollipop ROM, specifically the GPE one, with no luck. We unfortunately cannot use Cyanogenmod, due to the locked bootloader which prevents using custom kernels (SafeStrap is like a workaround, with some limitations). It's only a matter of time before the official Lollipop...

In practice you should not have too much issues performance-wise with the Moto G if you use it as stated (music and messaging apps). However, you will feel the limitations of 1 GB RAM if you try to do something like simultaneously run Google Play Music and Google Maps GPS navigation...

It's possible that it might not be part of the unified builds for CM11, as it has a different codename, "peregrine" vs "falcon" (for the 3G Moto G variants). In the meantime, don't risk bricking your device until official support comes.

You can buy the Moto G LTE from Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-Moto-Universal-Unlocked-White/dp/B00K0NS0P4/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1402849608&sr=8-4&keywords=moto+g It supports both ATT and T-Mobile LTE bands

dbrand red carbon fiber skin on red grip shell I bought the red carbon fiber skin for use on my red grip shell. It definitely gives the Moto G a more attractive look plus red is my favorite color. Check out the attached pics.

There is a fix for the unknown number issue in settings. You have to manually put in your phone number within the phone app settings. I forget which part of the settings in the phone app but it's a relatively easy fix.

The front skins do not come with a screen protector. You would have to make sure that the screen protector has the right cutouts, otherwise there will be parts of the skin that don't adhere to a surface.

Here is a side pic of the phone.

Dbrand black titanium skin I got the black titanium skin in the mail yesterday. It fits very well with the Moto G and really does enhance grip. I noticed that due to the shape of the actual sticker, these can also be applied to the grip shells that Motorola sells for those who want added...

Although I don't use an actual case, I still protect my Moto G with a tempered glass protector. I also applied a Dbrand black titanium skin to the stock black cover to give the phone a premium feel and grip.

CM 11 M6 appears to have no issues with OTG. I used a Meenova micro SD card reader and was able to unmount through storage settings every time I needed to remove it to charge my device. I was unable however to access my voicemail, so I'm back to stock kitkat

These skins look really good on the moto g, except for the ones covering the front of the device which look tacky in my opinion. I ordered the black titanium skin for my moto g. It should make the stock black cover easier to grip and less prone to grease smudges. Looking forward to seeing some...

Below are two methods that allow you to gain root access on the AT&T Galaxy Note 8.0. They do not install custom recoveries, which you would need to install any custom ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2660738 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2430540 The...

Which ROMs were you using? CM 11? I have an N5110 that also gave me issues with bluetooth (both a headset and an audio adapter). I found that changing the governor under performance options did the trick. I changed it from the default pegasusq to ondemand. The performance one also fixed the...
