Not sure if this is the Moto G version, or Moto X aswell, but Motorola Official Blog just released a note:
KitKat Breaks into Europe - The KitKat goodness continues to roll out at a furious pace! Last week we began rolling out Android, KitKat 4.4.2 to carriers and regions in Europe. Check the software updates release page for the latest on your device.

Why does the G get it before the X?

Anyone knows when this update come too moto x? :/

I have a feeling the hold up on 4.4.2 is the broken Google now voice search aka hollow microphone bug.

The UK version is launching February 1st with Kit Kat so I'm going to hazard a guess it'll be out then

...because the X already had 4.4 before the G, so it needs a second upgrade. The G only needed one upgrade to go straight to 4.4.2.

Thread title should be changed.

Well, the band for LTE from Germany matches those from XT1058.
Let's just hope for it.

Great... Just great... Now the Moto G even has a Google Play Edition!! Its alost a nexus now! :-/

I could care less about the Google play edition, after using the Motorola add on's I wouldn't want to lose touchless controls or active notifications.

If Verizon can push a 4.4.2 OTA just as quickly as 4.4 before, I'll be in shock. But who knows.

Thats the reason we wont have a Google Play Edition of the Moto X! Cuz the phone will loose its selling features...

That's also the reason that the moto x will probably get updates a little slower than the G. The G doesn't have any of the features of the X, so it's got less to port /update.

Caution!!! 4.4.3 Bugs Spoted...

We are very excited about 4.4.3 update in the air rolling, but i found in Motorola forum, after updating in 4.4.3 user experiencing a major problem of dropping signal in WiFi rapidly. GPS satellite tracking is very slow around 10 min. of spotting satellite & sometimes battery draining quickly than before. So anyone knows any known bugs about 4.4.3, please share....

yes this is true, you can find it posted by several users in Motorola forum...
https://forums.motorola.com/hives/3ba9b2429c/summary

Those issues apparently only affect only a minority of users. For me the battery is better than on 4.4.2, I don´t have any wifi drops and GPS is as fast and accurate as ever.

People are so crazy to get the update . I hope Motorola is looking into this and even though it affects few devices , rolls out another patch or patch further updates .

Also, if you previously disabled the messaging app and use hangouts, hangouts will be unusable after the update (constant crashes). This happens on the Moto G and Moto X 4.4.3 updates. The only fix is reset all your app preferences and keep the messaging app enabled.

Thanks buddy, this info will help us.

I found this should be the proper way of upgrading os probably it will help escaping bugs also.
perform a factory data reset before and after an OS upgrade. And wipe the cache a few times, too.
This advice have been taken from Motorola forum.

If you read carefuly, motorola replyed
When you reset before a software update, you will actually go at the end of the queue for the servers - this could mean that you have to wait another 2 weeks until it's your turn again to download.

I don't see a point for factory reset before update, it makes logic after. Just my opinion

Yes, there is no point since the OTA only updates the read-only portion of the OS. It will not make the OTA apply any different by doing a reset before the update.

I got the point of your thread but factory reset before OTA is like cleaning with a broom before using the vacuum cleaner, its in vain Just a joke, everybody does what they think is the best with their phones

Not seeing this at all. Overall, 4.4.3 seems every bit as stable as 4.4.2 (NOW, I wish I could say the same about the latest XPrivacy beta releases, THOSE create quite a few issues with apps)

You are running stock 4.4.3 and have Messaging disabled and you didn't do Reset App Preferences? The crashes in Hangouts in this scenario are happening with both the Moto G (US GSM and 4G/LTE variants) and Moto X.

Aslong as the get the chip to work... Iits a good to go. Nexus 5 and g3 use the same chip. If it runs on nexus they can use it on g3 aswell. So yeah that is great news.

That was just my opinion about Qualcomm move. I know that LG G3 have only Qualcomm CPUs

Android 7.0 clearly runs fine on the Snapdragon 800/801, so there is no technical limitation from the processor side of things.

Exactly, I don't know why people are freaking out when it runs on the Nexus 5 and the Z3, as well as the Nexus 4 (which obviously doesn't have any of the prerequisites I'm assuming). All this news means is that Qualcomm will not provide support or official support its processor on Nougat. It doesn't mean that the processor cannot run Nougat.
We will no doubt get unofficial roms, but no ROM from LG because it doesn't support hardware based encryption for Nougat (yes that is the reason why support is dropped).

I hope it doesn't take long... also i hope it is possible port the IR blaster, lg keyboard even tho we have to live with a crappy AOSP camera (there is a petition for LG to provide the framework, which would make things perfect if possible ).

Got The First Update on Moto G5!!!

Lenovo has finally rolled out the first update for our Moto G5. I have got it here in India. It says it improves system stabily and updates the android security patch. It does what it says. Check for system update now. The security patch after update is of March 1 2017 and the build number is NPP25.137-73. The update is around 125 MB in size.

received the update of 125 MB ....

Not in Germany, yet. ?

How's your SOT on the Moto G6 Plus?

I recently bought and returned(because of a small hardware defect) a Moto G6.
Now that I had time to think better about what phone I want, I'm thinking a Moto G6 Plus or Redmi Note 5 might be better for me.
Only thing I need to know to decide is how much battery life I can expect to get from the Moto G6 Plus.
So, how does it do? Can I expect to get 6 or 7 hours SOT while on 4g? Maybe 5?
Thanks!

I get about 3,5 hrs SOT in the 90-20% charge range - mostly phone, text, whatsapp, telegram, skype & websurfing.

Using it since last friday evening with full NFC cloning from my S7, will check again after a fresh setup some time.
