Ota 4.4.2 update - Moto G General

Appy geek reporting Motorola pushing out kit kat 4.4.2 Today For Moto G nothing so far on my 8GB simfree UK t-mob
Sent from my XT1032 using Tapatalk

Now it’s important to note that while the update is for both the global and US GSM variants of the Moto G, the rollout is more than likely to occur in various stages. In other words, it could take some time before it reaches all Moto G owners.

Firstly US, people who ordered from motorola.com

Only for phones in the US so far, there's no indication when the rest of the world will follow. All they say is 'soon'. But who knows how long that is...

Oh well at least its deff coming

For those with 4.4.2 update, is the ART option available? If so, how does it compare to dalvik?

as far as i know, motorola in my country announced that our operators already have the new android version for our device, but they have to wait (until something happens, don't remember what, but they didn't mention a specific date) for the release

Same thing with Koodo.

Patience, guys. The rollout is happening in phases, and for now only 1% of two specific sales channels get the update. They are the guinea pigs, so to speak. Once everything is fine, the update will be approved for more users.

That article is talking about the Google OTA process, there's no way of telling if motorola uses something similar. But posting "I haven't got the ota" doesn't help much either, I guess. So yes. Patience.

cwm backup or didnt happen

I need flash to work with firefox so will not be applying this update when it arrives.
If Dolphin browser had the ability to block apps then I wouldn't have a problem updating to 4.4.2 as I know you can get flash to work with Dolphin, so it's 4.3 for me.

Motorola releasing 3.1 update to Wifi users today!!

Hello Xoomers!! Motorola announced that they are releasing Honeycomb 3.1 to Xoom Wifi owners starting today in phases. I believe the updates are based on your MAC addresses on your Xooms, this was what I was told (sources withheld) but I can not confirm this 100%. Anyway, we should start seeing a steady rollout of updates as there have been no issues with the updates with Xoom 3g owners. Please be sure to thank me
Fingers crossed!!
Forgot to mention, the official WIfi only version of 3.1 does NOT contain the Movie tab in the marketplace. No biggie to me, but it will be released sometime later.
I hope this is true bc u have no idea how happy just seeing this post made me lol.
Is ut only the US version of wifi-only that will start to get the update?
How about the European version? Will it start to roll out to us to?
Can only find info that people with the US version have got it. What about we with Eu version,

LOL..I pissed my pants while typing it I was so happy! But yes I have confirmation fro other Wifi owners who have received the update this morning EST. Also there has been official word on the update being released to wifi users. I cant wait to see the popup on my xoom. Remember though, its in phases, so please be patient people. Also, 3.1 does not fix the slowness in auto rotate because this is not a google problem, its an issue with the Xoom models which should be patched soon(again sources withheld) may have something to do with increasing the cache but again Im not 100% sure on this. Good luck!!

Got my OTA this morning on my Wi-Fi Xoom in US.
Kinda ticked off that we Wi-Fi people get snubbed out of the Movie app for no reason. Especially when I have a trip this weekend that I was looking forward to using the movie app.
i got my ota update at around 12:30am last night. did a restore to stock and then used power+volup button to reboot and then check updates.

what do you mean snubbed out of the movie app? movie editing or movie watching?
great. seems like you have a lot of info from your sources. so i will ask you this, without providing exact info (dates, time, etc.), are we close to an SD fix? Simple yes or no.

This was not done purposely, looks like their was a "bug" which caused issues with Wifi owners. But I would rather have the update now than to have to wait another few weeks just for the movie tab to be added. Enjoy your 3.1!! I'm told that the auto-rotate issue should be patched also hopefully soon!!

Hey there! yes, the SD issue is NOT Motorola's fault, contrary to what is believed..this is a issue with Honeycomb itself which Google is aware of and will fix. The other tablets that do have the SD card support are using a "work-around" but its not the official fix. From what I "hear" the issue is how Honeycomb sees the SD card, this will be officially fixed soon. I believe that the other tabs will receive an update for the SD card also, as the way it works for them is not "official"

Can anyone provide a reliable link for this? People with wifi have been getting updates randomly for the last couple of days, so I'm not sure this is news. Not that I don't trust unsubstantiated conjecture, but... actually, I don't trust unsubstantiated conjecture.

Another post eslewhere in this forum mentioned that Motorola tech support said that a "fix" (not sure if that means Xoom only temp fix or a permanent fix from Google) for the SD card was finalized and would be pushed at close to the same time as the 3.1 update.

Received update .30

Just received my first update, it is build number:
Acer_A500_2.6.36.3_4010.30_COM_GEN1 I had Chinese build on, then I updated
to Acer_A500_1.139.04_4.010.22_COM_GEN1. I updated .22 yesterday and the new update arrived when I started tablet about an hour ago. Can't see any difference. I live in Archbald Pennsylvania if that means anything
Let's make that +2, I also updated from 1.141.01_EMEA_GEN3 (stock, Mexico) to 4.010.22_COM_GEN1 (USA), now I'm getting 4.010.30_COM_GEN1, I'm currently in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico.
Maybe NOW they're pushing the updates worldwide, at least for COM_GEN1 devices, which is GREAT.
BTW is a 44MB download, I recommend to change the title to 4.010.30_COM_GEN1.
just got the same update. I was also on chinese one and than .22. I don't see any difference at all. I'm from Croatia.
Dito - Leaked 3.1 > .22 >.30
First install failed, then restored saved recovery and took off sd-card: second try = success.

Nice, I want to download .22 > .30, mine also failed the first time, unroot and you can update, do it before because if it fails you need to download the whole update again ((arg)), root works once updated sweet! so root.
I'm trying factory reset after my backup to see if it works and if does or doesn't wipe Acer recovery and cwm, 'cuz if it does and enter a boot loop then I'm a little screwed, will waste 20 more min of my life unbricking
same thing. I had the emea stock of mexico, and i updates manualy to the com with the help of the post here at XDA. Got update .30 20 min ago(i was rooted and everything).
I am glad too see that many people are supporting this great product, specially on mexico where the only real competition the xoom and the ipad monopoly.
Anyone knows what does this update fixes?

No, no one knows but acer, and acer does not publish a change log or changes.
And no, Xoom is not competition for the iconia, almost $ 4,000.00 pesos more expensive, that is freaking $ 340 US dollars +, and no USB!?, only good thing is a better screen (color depth), hell ipad2 is a lot better option than a Xoom, did I mentioned is cheaper.
I also received an update this morning. It was 49 meg and my current release is 4.010.09_com_gen2.
I believe it was 4.010.08 before the update.
I'm in Tucson, AZ
Same here! Was about 117 mb though

They're doing a super job. In the little time I've had this, I've really noticed the little things such as their Xmas boot animation. I'm aware that some don't like it, but I think most will like the little touch of 'class'. Personally, I'd like to see them really surprise me with a Superbowl or BCS bowl animation but I recognize that will only appeal to a few.

Heh I'm not worried, everything always comes in time ... Motorola obviously didn't launch the phone in the US and I'm just interested in the turnaround since then from the planned US launch in January. It's been a bit irritating to see all the 16GB stock suddenly appear in the US when it's been hard to get any in the UK, not to mention accessories ... anyway, off-topic.

There will be no Lollipop for US carriers until months after the international phones get it. There is a lot of back and forth between carriers and Samsung...this has always been the case and always will be. Whenever you see talks of a model getting an OS update and release date, it is ALWAYS the international version and then you may see "speculation" as to when "some" of the US carriers will start rolling it out.

I'm not talking about the 4.4.4 update, I'm talking other updates, 4.3, and I think the update that fixed moving apps to the SD card.
Plus, the 4.4.4 update is kind of pointless for the S4 right? Didn't Samsung make all the fixes in that update in the 4.4.2 update?
Awesome update, thanks for posting!

I'm not talking about the 4.4.4 update, I'm talking other updates, 4.3, and I think the update that fixed moving apps to the SD card.
Plus, the 4.4.4 update is kind of pointless for the S4 right? Didn't Samsung make all the fixes in that update in the 4.4.2 update?

That is not correct. The international S4 got 4.3 2 weeks before Verizon and the only reason 4.3 was rushed to all devices was because it added Galaxy Gear compatibility. Sammy and US carriers wanted to make sure everyone bought phone and watch combos for the holidays. Verizon was the first US carrier to release... And I am sure all for monetary reasons. They had to release bug fixes soon after.
As of yesterday my lag free hangouts are now back to being laggy, not as bad but it's there again back to textra I go.

Nexus 6 delayed on Verizon, Won't launch tomorrow

stayed tuned...

You have any proof of this??
From what I read on the VZW website:
"The Nexus 6 by Motorola will be available for ordering on the nation’s largest and most reliable 4G LTE network starting March 12 online and will be in stores starting March 19."
I thought that was to be expected?

I'm not allowed to take pictures of emails from the company, but if you check Android Central, I'm well respected and reliable for all info I have given. You don't have to believe me, but tomorrow is the 12th, So let's see what happens.
I wonder if that has to do with the issues of not being able to release 5.1 to nexus 6 users yet? I saw on another thread possible licensing issues with binaries could be the reason we do not have 5.1. This very well could be the phones delay if this is true.

It's not that I don't believe you - I'm saying the post saying it was available says it's not available until the 19th (but that it can be ORDERED on the 12th)... I'm confused on what is different between what you are saying and what the VZW update page has said all day.

AOSP is available, not a "stock" image. What is shipped with the N6 is definitely not AOSP.
We should still be able to order it online tomorrow. Obviously its gonna be available on the 19th in stores. They wouldn't make an announcement and just delay it again. Plus sprint is rolling out 5.1 today according to Androidpolice
As of right now, it's says it won't be available to order online tomorrow. The 19th is still an option for all channels.

What is the difference between AOSP and what is shipped with the Nexus 6?
I actually heard this from a source that's close to the matter a few hours ago. He received a call "from the top" and was told everything that OP said.

Everything that google adds. In this case, all of the gapps as well as the blobs that get updated with the hardware. Also, whatever it is that makes voice detection when device is sleeping (even though that's listed as a function of AOSP). Nexus devices are more "stock Google" than "stock Android".
It is listed on the site now to purchase.It shows will ship by date of 3-18-15.
Are you not able to order the 64gb version from Verizon? Wtf?
