    Just saying, if someone is having trouble charging the phone's battery, then they may struggle using all the phone's other features.

    No, I'm not a politician yet. ;)

    Your confusing posts about this will certainly make someone struggle if they take your advice at face value :rotfl:

    I got my phone today, its a nice phone, feels great in the hand.

    But for some reason it is not connecting to my mobile network? I unlocked the phone no problem and its working on Virgin. I can send and receive calls but the phone is not connecting to the internet.

    I dont use wifi at home

    I tried going to settings - data usage - mobile data (on/off). I turned it off and then back on again, didnt seem to do anything. I turned phone on/off but it doesnt connect or even appear like its trying to?
    You'll probably need to put in the APN for Virgin.

    I assume since this is a Tesco phone it will be populated by Tesco's own settings?

    In settings
    in Wifi
    hit three little 'dots' at the bottom right

    Thanks

    The phone automatically appears to have found the mobile network now (just happened by itself)

    But it doesnt appear to be collecting things like whatsapp msgs?

    When i went to the settings liek you suggested, under advanced, there was no ip address for the phone only a mac address..is that correct?

    Google just sold Motorola to Lenovo, wonder if it'll affect the pricing?

    Google updated maps last year and no longer have the separate navigation app.

    Maps now should/may give your what you previously got from navigate.

    Just seen this on the home page. My feeling is the Moto G will be the first (and last) ultra bargainous Motorola mobile now.:(
