| ![]() Few quick observations from Moto G 2nd gen received yesterday from Flipkart purchased on 6-10. Few observations are mainly UI based and in comparison to Note 2 (N7100) used till now. 1) Can we have the battery % displayed next to battery icon on the top? If no, is there any other alternative. 2) If there are any notifications like missed calls / messages, are these not shown against thier respective icons with a no. as shown in Note 2, like 2 unread posts on messages icon etc. 3) Is there a way to block unwanted calls similar to Note 2. If no, best alternative. 4) Any good file manager for Moto G 2nd gen, since used to this in Note 2. Thanks in advance. Last edited by vvrchandra : 9th October 2014 at 10:18. |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() I've ordered the Mi3 that was automatically added to my cart but have already received several requests for the phone. If it does arrive (message said, will deliver if stocks available), i will hand it over to the first person who asked for it (on or off the forum). |

You can try installing a third party battery app that will show the battery percentage in the status bar. 2) Unread counts on the app icons is something that only Sammy phones have out of the box IMO. There are some third party apps which enable that functionality. The paid version of Nova launcher, for example. 3) Again, search in the Play Store, I'm sure there are many apps for it. 4) I use ES file manager, and I'm quite happy with it. ![]() | |

| ![]() Yes, I got my MI3 version updated to version 34 (MIUI-KXDMIBH34.0) yesterday night when I connected it to WiFi. As of now I have not noticed any visible change. |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Sure sir. Will do. ![]() Quote:
The phone did ask me to back-up data. Is data back-up really required? | |

| ![]() Rather best procedure is to first backup the data then format/factory reset the phone and wipe the cache partition, then update the firmware, then factory reset and wipe the cache and restore your backup. Looks lengthy but ideal way of firmware upgradation. |

Only change I noticed is on the start-up screen, the "android" at the bottom of the screen has now become "powered by android" ![]() Quote:
What happens to the backup file on the phone if I factory reset my phone? Is the backup file also deleted? If yes, then how can I go about the "take backup --> hard reset phone" maneuver? What should I do with the backup file? Or else, transfer it to my PC and then again transfer it to the phone? How does it work? Thanks. -Bhargav | ||

Infractions: 0/1 (4) | ![]() Received my Redmi 1 S last night and I have moved to Mokee ROM based on CM 11 almost immediately. MIUI was a worst experience, after coming from stock android experience on my Nexus 5. Lets see how the REDMI 1s fares with CM11. Last edited by F150 : 10th October 2014 at 07:36. |
