Hmm.. but deleting the host file and restarting the phone has always worked for me, whether i was on stock rom or custom... the other solution i can think of if this does not work is log out of google and login with a different id.. i think read this somewhere when i first faced the issue, but never had to use it..

Problem is not the host file. we need an ota by motorola to fix this "connection drop".
"Guides" like this should be deleted immediately as OP has no tiniest clue on what he is talking about. If access to Youtube/PlayStore were blocked via hosts file - it wouldn't work at all. Ever. Plus, a lot of guys with this issue are on stock ROMs with no root access and with locked bootloaders, so their "hosts" file can not be modified at all.
Being that said, OP is either:
a) troll
b) app developer (deleting hosts file would disable add blocking
)
c) just another ignorant person

Sorry mate but this trick helped me, so I was just sharing it because it had been an issue. No need to cry

You will definitrely need Root for doing changes in hosts file.
Thus it is impossible that host will can be issue on unrooted stock as its hostfile is almost blank (localhost doesn't count)
well I can say that I have seen this isssue on several other phones as well. My secondary phone is also having the issue. My friends are also having this issue on other phones. So definitely not Moto's problem either I would say.
How do u know its completely wrong? Have you tried it and didn't work? Obviously it needs root access.. don't dismiss a method without trying it.. i have used it on samsung y, samsung s duos as well as moto g with full success.. and u must have a 100% correct method for sure, y don't u mention it?

You said:
'On reboot play store will rebuild the hosts file'
That is just completely wrong. You really think an app (which BTW never uses root) rebuilds the hosts file!!!
Again have u ever tried it? When i say you require root access, i mean to say you require it to delete the hosts file as you will not be able to do so with the stock file manager without root access..

Thus is not working for me right now? Changed host file multiple times rebooted nothing... Host file remains the same and the market still no connection. Any other ideas?

As I said, hosts file is irrelevant here, unless its been altered to have an entry for the hostname of the playstore in it which points to an invalid IP. But let's face it, that is not the case.
If you have no connection at all though then your issue is different to the original issue in this thread.
