VOLTE i thought it was Android L

They need to fix touchless control. The speakerphone not activating when placing/receiving a call is annoying.

I honestly don't see how you guys can actually think it's L when Google hasn't even released it. Maybe just wishful thinking like @bigv5150 i know @Caseyk621 was really hoping this would add another GB of ram

I was hopping there would be some new radios with the OTA but it doesn't look like it. Anyone have any input on this thanks.

Moto is getting ready to soak test JB!

According to droid-life.com:
http://www.droid-life.com/2012/11/1...te-for-razr-hd-and-maxx-hd-likely-jelly-bean/
I can neither confirm nor deny if such a program exists due to agreements I may or may not have made while filling out a form that may or may not exist.
I know that the rumor is Dec 17th but I wonder if a soak test means that time frame will be moved up or not.
I may have received an email this day that may have been similar. Was kind of surprised that they asked if you're rooted and sounded pretty cool with it simply requesting that you unroot before they pick your brain. Never ran a presoak before unless you count washing my car. Usually just grab leaks once they're available but didn't want to grab the recent leak knowing official JB was right around the corner.
Here's to a great phone getting a great OS update!
Hope I'm included in this!....

Any idea as to how long it will be before the soak comes out? I tested ICS on my Bionic, and can't remember how long it was between the time I received the email and the update came to my phone.
They will send out another email when they start releasing the OTA update for the soak test.
Got my phone too late and doubt I will be added

When I did the soak for the OG MAXX, they sent a second email saying it was being sent out for the testing phase.
It was only a few days after the invite email was sent that the 2nd one was sent out and, that Saturday morning it was available to install.

What the? Verizon first? Come on tmobile..
I just switched to sprint for free and sold my us cellular moto x to pay the early termination, im now the proud owner of a moto x on sprint with unlimited data, I was paying so many overages with data as I use it to tether my surface pro. When sprint gets the update can I just unlock bootloader and flash su.zip since the sprint version is available for bootloader unlock?

There is no direct causative evidence pointing to the fact that the NDA was broken and if that was why the soak test was cancelled. However, yes, the soak seems to have been cancelled.
It is plausible that the test was cancelled so that they could begin the general rollout instead; which, if true, is actually a good move by Motorola. I don't see why anyone should be angry that the soak is cancelled in light of the news of the general rollout. Once we have our hands on the update file, we can ADB sideload and profit!

Wow. Some people really will complain about anything. The retail VZW version of the Moto X is the only one that can't be running 4.4 already; Every other one already has a ROM or images or whatever.
Here it is!

Downloading mine too!
This is mind-boggling.
1. It's Verizon
2. It's before several Nexus devices
3. It's before Dev editions
Well, Hope that means my AT&T will be getting it's update soon....
Check for updates, mine is downloading as we speak.. no im not in the soak or any of that
Edit: Download complete, and update is installing.

Who's gonna leak the Soak Test?

"This is a confidential test under the terms of the Motorola Feedback Network. Please do not post any details or information about this on any public sites or report it to sites that cover our industry." Lololol
With this invite just going out, I doubt anything has been pushed to testers.
Usually, that takes 5 to 7 days.
Anyone know how to capture the zip from the SOAK servers? Also the 12.15.15 obake is the current firmware out now for the ultra. I want to say the last SOAK was 3 days after the email. Got the email on Oct 28th and Halloween morning had the OTA. Lots of the rooted users had issues so if you are going to Fact reset do before you finish the survey, device reset can kick your device out of the list to get the OTA

Use a root browser and navigate to cache once it is downloaded. Copy it then upload. Easy
Ok where is the cache folder, not rooted so haven't messed around the file structure on this phone much.

VERY little, in my opinion. I was coming from the Samsung Galaxy S III, and was also trying to choose between the N5 and the MotoX. I chose the Moto, and so far I'm really pleased.

Not directed at me but if I chose moto i'll only be on it until my contract is up in June. I have good Sprint service but I want to go to a GSM carrier and buy unlocked since i'm done with contracts. The intriguing part about Nexus 5 is i could use it on Sprint and then take it elsewhere when my contract is up. Moto X brings innovation though. The X2 would definitely be my next phone.

Is it? I asked the sales rep about that and they said an update would be released when SPARK went live in the area. If that's incorrect, then I suppose the N5 might be a better bet if you're looking to acquire SPARK functionality sooner.

I will defer to those with more insider information than I. I've found the Moto X to be speedier than my GS3 in the Houston area, so while SPARK would be nice, I can't say it makes me regret purchasing this phone if it will not be compatible. So far I've been very pleasantly surprised at how much I'm liking it.

on sprint, chose the MotoX because it feels much better in hand. Hardware and software working VERY well together in this little device. The nexus 5 looked great, but I am not one to do any or much flashing or tinkering with phones. I wanted a phone that worked, and the MotoX fits that bill the best IMO. I also got it for 1 cent on Amazon for upgrade, so that was awesome.
Apparently there's a flashable update zip here. If anyone is rooted with stock recovery can you try it and let us know?

I just tried to flash that but it said an error about it was meant for ghost devices.
How is everyone liking the screen size with the soft keys? I was messing around with a co-workers and I didn't love the screen size. I have a N5 and was thinking about getting my wife the Moto X, she currently has the Sprint SII and I don't want to downgrade her screen size. I know I am used to the N5 screen so maybe her going from SII to Moto X won't be so bad.

Yikes! December is quite a while away. I hope that info is outdated... I was hoping John Legere would announce it during Uncarrier X. If it doesn't come out this month, I'll probably just buy it from BB with my bonus since it still gets VoLTE and Wifi calling. Band 12 isn't out where I'm at yet, but the Priv does support it, so the only thing I miss out on is the Jump insurance.

Didn't they remove the word "exclusive" due to legal reasons?

I didn't hear that but that makes more sense than exclusive since you can buy it from B&B's website. But still the timed exclusive has to be worth it and I couldn't see AT&T paying for anything less than a month.
