Hi, Yes, I was able to start my Moto G in that way.

You might be able to "disable" it. On my Samsung I can go into the application manager, select one and choose "Disable" which prevents it from running and wasting resources. Re activating Talkback, I haven't started up a Motorola, but I would have assumed that it should work the same way as well. With the OK google thing the internet suggests it can be turned off fairly easily: http://www.talkandroid.com/guides/beginner/how-to-turn-off-okay-google-alway s-listening-feature-in-the-google-experience-launcher/ Regards Quentin.
