Australian XT905 to get KitKat - Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I posted a question to Motorola asking if we were to get a KitKat revision, and they said yes, but with no given time frame. So, that means we will have a KitKat bootloader to run the latest CM builds.
You can check when we finally get a time frame at:
https://motorola-global-en-aus.cust...nZKNlFXa1psIiwic2Vzc2lvbklEIjoidko2UVdrWmwifQ..
Right now it says "Future plan coming soon."

I'm running CM11 nightlies on my phone - they work great!
The only issue I have is that sometimes the device wont reconnect to a WiFi network after an initial connection - but a reboot fixes this instantly.
Even with that small issue, it ****s all over the Tel$tra firmware!!
If anyone wants some hand-holding to install this, drop me a message

its almost comical, seeing that the carrier version (versizon) has had the update for several months, and the razr i retail has kitkat, but still no kitkat for the international (non carrier or carrier) razr m

I would be surprised if we didn't. It's only a matter of how much time Motorola decides to take pushing this update.

I actually reckon we shouldn't get a date.. Issues may pop up that may delay release.. Remember the feeling of frustration when Punit Soni announced that Dev editions would be released in days and it didn't happen for weeks?

Funny you mention that:
"We are moving directly to 4.4. I dont like to discuss timing. It just puts a lot of stress on the team, and there is always a chance we find something which delays us a bit.
Rest assured, we are on it. You have seen the speed with which we are moving as a Google company, that shall continue."
- Punit Soni, https://plus.google.com/+PunitSoni/posts/LAKKMnEE6CQ , scroll way down (or just Ctrl-F a phrase from that quote)
I'm just looking forward to all the awesome things we have in store; just got my MotoX yesterday and got it activated today; less than 12 hours with an activated and working phone, and I love everything it does already. Getting 4.4 is just icing on the cake for me.
Don't get me wrong.. I'm equally impatient lol... But then again, the Moto X runs amazingly on 4.2.2 already

No, just like the previous update, someone will come up with a flashable zip.

The bootloader does not have to be relocked! just make sure that you flash back to stock format including your recovery. And you'll be able to take any and all updates. After you update to Kit Kat you should be able to flash superuser zip in CWM or TWRP. To gain Root.

OK that makes sense, I can always restore back to stock then.
I'm keeping my hopes high and my expectations low. I still remember the Atrix after all. New Motorola or not, even if they plan to ship out 4.4 quickly, there is still the carrier issue. I'll believe it when the soak invites go out.

I kept telling all you guys that Motorola was skipping 4.3 and going directly for kit Kat now its come to fruition. You're welcome
Hi,
I have my moto x with the last OTA, i kept root with a tuto that's here.
I want to flash the stock firmware with rsd, my question is if it will take it as downgrade.
I want to wait for KitKat un-rooted.
Thanks

The 4.4.4 kitkat update roll out will start from this week only

The update roll out will start from this week only , The devices - Nexus 5 , Nexus 7 , Motorola Moto x , Moto g and Moto e Will get first chance to get updated to android 4.4.4 .
http://www.techdroider.com/2014/06/android-444-kitkat-update-out-for-nexus.html
hopefully Moto G will get this update because 4.4.3 has some strange battery drain problems

Waiting for 4.4.4
I don't think we will receive the update 4/5 weeks before as other sites stated that .But it is clear that no 4.4.3 ,direct 4.4.4.
Hopefully this explains the delayed roll-out of 4.4.3. The question is now; will 4.4.4 be subject to another staged roll-out? Considering the changes are apparently minimal (only security fixes) - 4.4.4 could roll-out in more than one country at once.
Wow. That article is so poorly written, I don't see how anyone could base anything off what it says.
now iam on xt1033 dualsim 8 gb and still on 4.4.2 and no get update to 4.4.3
and i hope get update 4.4.4 later
Directly 4.4 not before of 1 month for europe i think. Probably more. Hoping to be wrong for me lol
Hope it gets europe soon. *fingers crossed*

Of course the post on that forum totally misrepresents what the Motorola employee said. In fact, the Motorola rep didn't even mention the Moto G specifically. And he certainly didn't say the rollout stopped.

I read all that carefully, not only the moto g isn't specified, but also it clearly says they are referring to the "droid" line of devices, not the moto line...
But I seriously doubt we won't get any Android L* sometime in the future, this is a gpe device, when Google took it in, we got a 2+ year (or until Qualcomm goes bankrupt) software warranty.

Its a great news for Indian users who are in 4.4.2 still now. But there is no specific date and 3 days to go to end this week. Hope it will be here soon.

Do you really think they will do that? They said 1 guaranteed update.which means next major update.these are just bug fixes.
Besides they said they will give 4.4.3 and 1 more update is still there. So now instead of 4.4.3 they are rolling out 4.4.4
That's all. So don't worry about it.

And as promised by Motorola , moto e will b getting one major updates and that surely is Android L. Lets hope for the best.

Don't worry about Android L update. Motorola completely open sourced our kernel source code. If Motorola doesn't give us update it may not be a problem . There are third party roms like CyanogenMod which will work perfectly with our device . Moto E will run all Android releases perfectly for the next 2 - 3 + years. So enjoy the present.

Just FYI. Kernel source isn't enough to upgrade to new OS. But we have more than that. But moto didn't give out only kernel source I meant[emoji6]

Just changing your Rom from sense to CM will not enable you to get the lollipop ota.... NOT even flashing a gpe Rom will do that... U have to actually do the full GPE conversion to be able to do that.
You have full instruction on how to do that?

There's a thread in Dev section.

I might get gpe updates for this without manually changing it? Because I'm waiting for android Lollipop.
You won't get the update unless you're running stock gpe. I'm sure someone around here will make a rom of it for us tho.
Im currently running 'GPE and waiting for the OTA. If i can get my hands on it, i´ll upload it, but i think
somebody will be faster due the way of getting chosen for the update in the first days.
There will most likely be a rom built from source before the OTA is out. That has been the way this update has gone. The source is uploaded first before the OTA is pushed. HEck the nexus 4 had the source and img files uploaded for almost 2 days before the OTA was pushed out.
