Hey everyone,
I have set up a Telegram group for real-time chat, troubleshooting, and sharing setups for the Motorola Signature.
Mainly made it because I’m working on some custom GCam configs (XMLs) specifically tuned for our phone's cameras to push the sensors to their limit, and wanted a quick place to drop the files and get feedback.

Hello everyone,
I wanted to share a comprehensive list of bugs, performance quirks, and some feature requests I've put together after using my Motorola Signature (16GB/512GB model) over the past few weeks. Hoping to see if others are experiencing the same things, and throwing this out there in case anyone from Moto keeps an eye on the subreddit!
Bugs & Optimization Issues
Inconsistent Quick Tile Actions (Motorola Style Drawer): When using the Motorola-style notification layout, simple taps on the quick tiles are incredibly erratic. Instead of toggling the feature on/off (like quickly switching Wi-Fi), a normal tap frequently forces the phone open directly into the deep settings menu. I want it to toggle, not redirect me every single time.
Ultrasonic Fingerprint Scanner Inconsistency: It's not a total dealbreaker, but it definitely acts up. I'd rate it about an 8 out of 10 for accuracy. For a premium ultrasonic sensor, it shouldn't feel like a hit-or-miss game as often as it does.
Un-disabling Dolby Atmos on Speaker: This one is just plain annoying. When using the primary phone speakers, you are completely blocked from turning Dolby Atmos off. The toggle is locked out. There absolutely needs to be a universal option to disable this processing whenever we want, regardless of whether earphones are plugged in.
App Drawer Search Bar Misalignment: Occasionally, when swiping up from the home screen into the app drawer, the bottom search bar visually glitches. It jumps up slightly higher than its intended position, causing a strange, jarring screen alignment defect.
Idling Battery Drop from 100%: The battery optimization at full charge is rough. The very second I unplug the phone at 100%, it immediately begins ticking down to 99% and 98% within moments—completely on idle, without a single heavy app running.
Broken Third-Party Volume & Type-C Audio Support: Third-party audio applications like Poweramp are experiencing broken volume implementation. Furthermore, type-C earphone compatibility is seriously lacking. I use the Samsung AKG Type-C (IC100) earphones, and they have massive compatibility issues on this device. Motorola really needs to extend better support to third-party Type-C DAC audio accessories.
Lagging Software Updates: We are well into the middle of May now, and this device is still stuck sitting on the March security patch. For a device of this caliber, the update cadence needs to be sharper.
Feature Requests:
Native AI Key Remapping: Motorola needs to give us complete native control over the physical AI Key. Right now, I'm forced to use a third-party key-mapping app just to use it as a physical switch to toggle the flashlight. We should have a deep, built-in setting in Moto/Android to remap this hardware button to basic system utilities or any application of our choice.
Proper Quick Tile Gestures: Moto needs to standardize the interaction model. A simple tap should exclusively toggle a feature on or off. A press-and-hold should be the only gesture that launches you into the full settings menu.
App Restrictions within Modes: When customizing specific modes (like Sleep Mode or Work Mode), we should have a built-in feature to whitelist or blacklist specific applications. If I'm in Work Mode, I want the ability to explicitly lock or disable distracting apps so they can't be used at all until the mode changes.
Are any other Signature owners running into these can't-remap hardware restrictions, or noticing the same software and audio quirks? Let me know if you've found any stable workarounds!
