How much is a 16GB one of these worth second hand, totally immaculate? My missus doesn't really like it and is gonna get a Z1 compact.
£100 I'd say
I think its exactly the same chassis so accessories for the G are compatible.
Correct.

Every app is constantly crashing on my i9000 now, its served me well.
Managed to order a sim free 4g for £129.50 because I had some clubcard vouchers![]()
First unlock the bootloader via the motorola website:
Then download the following files:
http://download.chainfire.eu/396/SuperSU
http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/xt1032/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.1-xt1032.img
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
Transfer the SuperSU.zip onto the moto g phone
(Install ADB onto your windows rig if not already installed)
Place ''openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.1-xt1032.img'' into the windows folder that ADB installs ''fastboot'' into
Now enable USB debugging in ''{ } Developer options'' on your Moto G 4G LTE (Settings --> About phone ---> Now tap ''Build number'' 7 times to reveal Developer options in settings)
With USB debugging enabled connect the Moto G to your PC with a USB cable
Now open a command prompt and change directory to that which contains ''fastboot'' and ''openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.1-xt1032.img''
First check that ADB is communicating with your Moto G 4G LTE by running the following command:
fastboot devices
It should return something like ''TA95000WAX'' if it says anything about ''unauthorized'' device then check your Moto G screen and confirm authorization.
O.K, now we need to reboot the phone into bootloader mode, use the following command to do this @ command prompt:
adb reboot bootloader
Your Moto G should now reboot into bootloader mode and STOCK recovery will be displayed on your Moto G's screen
We now need to get TWRP recovery running on the Moto G, use the following command to do this @ command prompt:
fastboot boot openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.1-xt1032.img
You should now no longer see STOCK recovery on your Moto G's screen and instead TWRP's recovery
Finally we need to flash SuperSU.zip , do this ON THE PHONE using TWRP's install option and browsing to where you placed SuperSU.zip on your phone.
Once flashed select TWRP's reboot to system option and unplug phone from PC.
You are now rooted
I highly recommend that you install xposed framework and mavity box, mavity box is AMAZING!![]()
Seems right, but I'd be wary of sticking a recovery designed for the xt1032 (international variant) on the xt1045.
This is good to hear.... the screen, even at 20% brightness is crystal clear in sunlight.
What is the cheapest the 4G version can be had for?

BARGAIN!
Don't forget the £10 off code TDX-PRKW for new customers - which makes it £129.00 (or £139.00 Sim free)
even at 20% brightness is crystal clear in sunlight.
by sunlight he means moonlight![]()
moonlight... behind cloud
as a comparison, i was using mine at the pub the other day, 100% brightness and it was still a bugger to see as i was sat in direct sunlight. the screen being as reflective as it is definitely doesn't help matters, but on 20% brightness? no way lol
