So, I have been using Moto G 2014 for months now. When Motorola launched Moto G 2nd Gen, it came with Android Kitkat OS. With Android Kitkat, Performance was pretty good, with little to no lag. Android Kitkat worked flawlessly for me, with normal usage. On heavy use, Moto used to lag/hang many times, but considering price and hardware specs this phone is not made for heavy use.  After few months Google released Android Lollipop, everyone was excited about new Android OS with some new features.

Installing third party firmware gives you a granular level of control along with business level features, utilizing hardware's max...
