That is perfectly fine. This is open source after all. I'm uploading now and it should be up later tonight.
[Moto X Android Development] AbstractXart:
Yes, I was on 4.4 and installed xposed framework only to realize it makes it so ART can't work. I than used the toolkit option to revert to stock 4.2 OTA. Than I just updated to 4.4 manually using the file in the OP.
[Moto X Android Development] gokart2:
Sweet deal. You never know though, some people are very edgy about things. Mines cooking now, so it should be up tonight or tomorrow. We have to make sure it specifically says you can't flash from 4.2, and while on 4.4 you can't flash back, via recovery.

This is great to know. Once I have a flashable I'm gonna try it. This will likely be the only way to revert back, if need be.
[Moto X Android Development] roguejam:
This may be a dumb question, but is there anyway to root the system in the system.img by pushing su and adding superuser.apk to the system image, then flash that via fastboot?

Not sure if Motorola does a validation/integrity check on system images, especially on a locked bootloader.
[Moto X Android Development] flopadmi:
Sorry. dump question.

your rar file contains "system.img.ext4" .. how can i will flash it with ext4 extentions. should i remove the "ext4" and flash like fastboot flash system system.img ? ? ?
[Moto X Android Development] abiezer:
I'll flash it since everyone else is afraid, I'm downloading now.
[Moto X Android Development] shabbypenguin:
pwnmymoto i believe is an option? or unlocking bootloader and flashing recovery.
[Moto X Android Development] abiezer:
Well it seems to be working, but it is the version before the camera update. Everything works fine anyways.
[Moto X Android Development] shabbypenguin:
alright cool thanks :)

of someone has a absolute bone stock system image of the latest update and doesnt mind using root to dump it and upload i can deodex that for everyone.

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system of=/sdcard/System.img.ext4

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot of=/sdcard/Boot.img
[Moto X Android Development] abiezer:
I'm working on it now....
[Moto X Android Development] abiezer:
Well actually mine isnt bone stock... It HAS to be bone stock?
[Moto X Android Development] shabbypenguin:
well ideally the less bloat or mods removed the better, just cuz one person doesnt use sprint nascar doesnt mean someone else wouldnt ya know?. the more things altered means trying to get a copy of that updated apk from someone.

edit, forgot also need kernel. added it to the above post
[Moto X Android Development] abiezer:
Unfortunately, when I tried to wipe just data on TWRP I cannot go back to fully stock because I had erased some of my system APKs. I do not have a completely stock image, so I'll just upload what I have for now. Basically stock without Sprint APKs and without the stock Google keyboard (I have a modified one). You can use the stock keyboard and sprint apps from my old dump. Those should work.
[Moto X Android Development] qbking77:

That should be good. Let me know if you need anything else. I'll also update the OP.
[Moto X Android Development] AbstractXart:
qbking! great to see you man, You're almost always my source to rooting guides for Sprint phones. Great to see you on here!
[Moto X Android Development] Al936:
Does anybody have unmodified Sprint OTA update zip file? I am able to "apply" OTA without phone (on PC running Ubuntu) and can provide updated all files from system partition and updated boot.img also. The updated boot.img can be flashed via fastboot on Sprint phones with locked bootladers
[Moto X Android Development] Aersaud:
I'm actually waiting for an FXZ on it so I can fully restore to stock and reset up my phone. lol :p
[Moto X Android Development] jimmypop13:
Can somebody please make a Rom of this with just the system.img and boot.img? I want to see if Google wallet will work on a vzw dev edition. Thanks!
[Moto X Android Development] skiwong20:
If u on VZW dev edition just fastboot the system.IMG and boot.IMG..u can boot it fine...u can fastboot any image when unlocked
[Moto X Android Development] Al936:
Looks like jimmypop13 asking to make a Rom with system.img and boot.img from new dump of the latest firmware 139.14.1 (i.e. after last OTA). However there is no FXZ for 139.14.1 available yet and therefore new system.img and boot.img does not exists. Thats why I am asking about OTA zip file. Having OTA zip I can prepared new boot.img.
[Moto X Android Development] abiezer:
The boot.IMG and system.IMG were dumped on this post. They are inside the rar files.
[Moto X Android Development] Al936:
Ok, I did not sow inside the rar file :)
[Moto X Android Development] jimmypop13:
I tried this and it wouldn't work for some reason. It said boot loader command not supported or something along those lines and then said it flashed successfully for each file anyway but my phone instantly froze on the Motorola earth bootlogo. I wonder if the error message is due to being unlocked or having twrp?

I want to try it to see if wallet tap to pay will work on a Moto x other than Sprint bc so far we haven't had any luck and if I'm gonna run a Sprint build my phone, having the updated camera would be very nice! Lol
[Moto X Android Development] gokart2:
Might be because of the fastboot issue. Try THIS. Not sure if this across all phones, or the verizon only. Just got mine activated today, going to unlock and start playing around tonight. This phone is pretty nice outta the box, very impressed.
[Moto X Android Development] jimmypop13:
Hey thanks! I hadn't seen that thread. I bet that's the issue bc I forgot the error I was getting in fastboot had also mentioned something about max file size.

EDIT: I tried to flash the system.img and boot.img from the original sprint fxz using this fastboot and it seems like it flashed fine because I didn't see any errors but it still froze on the motorola earth boot screen. Not sure why it didn't work because I'm running the t-mobile build just fine on my vzw dev edition, of course I installed that with the rom posted on this site though and not by flashing system and boot image. So now i'm not sure if the sprint image just won't run on a different phone or if I'm missing something. I entered twrp after I flashed the old sprint system.img and boot.img and did a wipe on data, cache, and dalvik cache before I booted but it still locked up.

Hmm
[Moto X Android Development] jimmypop13:
I opened the rar file but it was a boot.img and a system.img.ext4. I'm not sure system.img.ext4 is the same as system.img because the file size of this system.img.ext4 is 1.5gb but the system.img from the previous sprint build was half that. So I'm wondering if this system.img.ext4 contains other things I don't want to flash on my verizon phone like radios or anything like that. I'm not intelligent enough in these matters to understand what the difference may be that caused double the file size
[Moto X Android Development] Aersaud:
I have successfully managed to restore to Stock Sprint after OTA with working wifi. Everything is working fine. This was done with out using RSDLite because the latest SBF is not available. Thank you for the updated system image.

so youll have cm soon enough which will mean you can stay current with android etc.
[Moto X Android Development] AbstractXart:
Oh man! I can't wait to be running CM on this phone.... especially with 4.4 on the horizon!
[Moto X Android Development] gokart2:
Nevermind....
[Moto X Android Development] gokart2:
Getting close to having a stock flasher..... Will be 139.14.1 100% stock, and if flashed via TWRP you will have the TWRP root option.
[Moto X Android Development] mhsbrian:
I'd be interested in this being flushable.
[Moto X Android Development] gokart2:
Got it booting and everything is working fine on my end. Having an issue uploading it ATM. Should have it up in a few hours, or definitely tomorrow. Will work on a deodexed version next week, unless someone gets to it first.
[Moto X Android Development] mhsbrian:
Wasn't someone gonna make a flashable stock zip with the system dump?
[Moto X Android Development] gokart2:
THEY DID! It's of the current camara fix build, the original shipped wans't made. Didn't think it was necessary, and mainly since I have issues downloading large files.
[Moto X Android Development] gokart2:
@ OP........Do u have the boot.IMG from the original dump? Or the System.IMG.ext4 file? Its easier to build from that system file instead of the unpacked way u have it. But I think I can do it anyway, just need the original boot.IMG that isn't in your dump.
[Moto X Android Development] abiezer:
Boot.IMG for the ota or the original?
[Moto X Android Development] gokart2:
The original boot.img. Going to make flashable stock zips for all releases. I doubt they will be utilized much, but may help if someone needs to revert back the code/changes made.
[Moto X Android Development] abiezer:
I just searched and I do not have the boot.img of the original here. Don't know what happened. Sorry.
[Moto X Android Development] gokart2:
Not a problem. If anyone does have the original boot.img or comes across please let me know.:good:
[Moto X Android Development] shabbypenguin:
http://shabbypenguin.com/getdownload.php?file=Tools/Unbrick-Creator.zip

someone mind flashing that zip and uploading the zip? i have a collection of bootloader images for most devices this year, they help when people need jtagging or on devices with sdcard slots it allows for booting from the sdcard slot. it contains no personal information and im trying to get a copy from all the carrier versions :)

Is anyone else envious that the Sprint variant hasn't gotten Kit Kat yet? :(
[Moto X Android Development] modmouse78:
Yeah, how are we last
[Moto X Android Development] AbstractXart:
It's actually pretty shocking knowing that the Verizon variant actually got an update before all other carriers :(. I'm hoping that we get the update this week!
[Moto X Android Development] modmouse78:
Sure wish Sprint would pick up the pace on this update.
[Moto X Android Development] Willieumm:
No kidding. Is there no way to flash like say a Verizon 4.4 ROM and then reflash the old Sprint modem?
[Moto X Android Development] gokart2:
KitKat isn't really all that spectacular IMO. I was let down in expectations. I've had it on my N7 for awhile and see no benefit from the last JB. Plus I miss the holo blue, the white/light gray isn't all that nice. I felt it as a step backwards.
[Moto X Android Development] modmouse78:
i have it on my n7 also and feel the same, but my buddy has it on his verizon moto x and he says it is amazing. He also has an n7. It was actually so nice that his wife messed with it a bit and decided to trade her s4 in for one.
[Moto X Android Development] derekwilkinson:
It isn't supposed to be a big change like ICS was. kitkat is a nice upgrade, and the new dialer and music widget on the lock screen alone are worth it.
[Moto X Android Development] stanislavshulgin:
sorry for possibly wrong topic, but please some devs look here in this thread

that's interesting for all sprint moto x users

Screw this, I'm returning my Moto X and getting the Nexus 5. Sprint sucks
[Moto X Android Development] gokart2:
Women are easily fooled when it comes to anything electric or mechanical.....well, almost anything LOL. Maybe it was given a better go through then the N7 then?

I agree about the native music widget on the lockscreen, but I've had a lockscreen music widget with almost any music app I've had. Not as pretty though. IDK.....considering how it's been on my N7, I'm not looking forward to it and probably won't take it. Performance has degraded even with a custom kernel, both CPU and GPU overclocked to the same settings where it's been a beast in the past. When both the kids noticed a lagging difference on two very separate occasions (when one noticed it, the other wasn't around) playing survival craft.... seems like a step backwards. To me the pro's haven't outweighed the cons. Haven't tried a custom rom yet, maybe/likely the fix to a few of the issues. Miss the holo blue though.....:(
[Moto X Android Development] derekwilkinson:
Do you guys still not have 4.4???

Sprint moto x firmware

Can somebody please upload the official Sprint Moto X firmware? I want to reflash my moto x using Motorola RSD lite...
[Moto X Android Development] abiezer:
I'm building a dump now that the firmware is official
[Moto X Android Development] poisonj5:
Can I use this in RSD lite? I'm not rooted.
[Moto X Android Development] abiezer:
No, I have no idea how to do that part. But I can give you a stock recovery flashable zip.
[Moto X Android Development] :
I'm rooted with twrp, would I be able to flash as is and then flash supersu over it? I'd like to not loose root if possible and I'm not at a computer to reflash a recovery. Actually, I haven't seen a stock recovery img.
[Moto X Android Development] abiezer:
I'm not 100% sure but feel free to try it. I believe it should work though. Also, make sure you have the latest TWRP. 2.6.3.1 I believe.

Edit: Updated OP by mistake, but just give me like ten minutes to finish uploading.
[Moto X Android Development] abiezer:
First post update with flashable zip.
[Moto X Android Development] KamilG225:
I'm fairly sure I know the answer to this, but can I use the new updated flashable zip on stock/unrooted Sprint Moto X to update to KitKat?

Sorry, I haven't been flashing since I had the Galaxy S3 so I'm a few years out of the game...

Thanks for the help!
[Moto X Android Development] dobbs3x:
Tried to flash. Got an error saying it is made for ghost devices.

I'm on stock 4.2.2 with root and using latest twrp recovery.

---------- Post added at 01:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:07 PM ----------

Here's my about phone

* update* I stand corrected, I'm not on latest twrp, I guess I downloaded it but didn't push it. I'll be right back after push latest twrp and retrying a flash of this.
[Moto X Android Development] AbstractXart:
I downloaded the flashable zip that is posted here, than I tried to install it via stock recovery but it didn't work. Than I tried to update it through the system updates button and it finally pushed the update through. I'm on 4.4 now running in ART. Glorious :).

I have a noobie question however. If I install TWRP and then root 4.4, will I not be able to take in any of the OTA's in case we get 4.4.2 soon?
[Moto X Android Development] MichaelMcEntire:
So its a no go? No system update for me yet, so I wanted to try it.
[Moto X Android Development] dobbs3x:
Thanks man I think you are correct I need to flash it as an update. I should of known that. Brb.
[Moto X Android Development] webby_s:
Ya got the failed flash too. .1 of TWRP fix it?

Sent from my XT1056
[Moto X Android Development] dobbs3x:
Went back to stock recovery and still won't flash. I'll keep at it. Still not getting an official ota in system updates.
[Moto X Android Development] webby_s:
So if I force the update, do I need to reflash TWRP. Or will it still be there? I assume I'll have to reflash SU.
[Moto X Android Development] oxeneers:
I got it to flash by copying the file as named to the /sdcard/ storage, then went to "Check for updates" and it found the ZIP, copied it to the right directory for me, and then flashed.
[Moto X Android Development] MichaelMcEntire:
This is not happening for me..
[Moto X Android Development] joda08:
So to clarify trying to flash this through twrp or cwm will error out? We need to be on stock recovery?
[Moto X Android Development] bso44:
Are you sure it wasn't just a coincidence that the OTA was ready on your device and that you having that zip on your sdcard had nothing to do with it?
[Moto X Android Development] MichaelMcEntire:
I suspect this..
[Moto X Android Development] gokart2:
Thank you sir!! Few questions......Is this the "soak" or public version? I don't believe there's a difference, but just curious. Also, any way you can super pack just the

System.img.ext4

and

boot.img

only from the dump so I can make a TWRP/CWM flashy, not including the firmware? The ~680mb makes things hard in my current position, so any smaller would be great. Not sure it'll be much different, so if it isn't I'll have to figure something out.
[Moto X Android Development] AbstractXart:
Probably was just coincidence, but I tried it out for about 20 minutes before that to no avail. Until I finally put the zip on my sdcard and hit system update, then it worked.
[Moto X Android Development] bso44:
Fair enough. I wasn't implying that you were lying or anything. Just never heard of a zip being flashed that way.
[Moto X Android Development] dobbs3x:
So I tried to get this to flash. Finally after redownloading the file from my computer and putting it in the root of the sdcard and rebooting it showed I had an update when I did the check for Motorola update in settings. It copied the update to memory rebooted to stock recovery and begins to flash but reboots within 10 seconds of the progress bar showing up and just boots up the old version. Anyone have any ideas to try?

I'm on unlocked boot loader, stock recovery, still rooted and I have not debloated or froze any apps. Just used xposed mod to tweak a copy status bar icons. Other then that its all stock.

---------- Post added at 08:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 PM ----------

I read that some nexus device users had to maybe do a factory reset to get the ota to flash might try that.

* update * still can't get it to flash. Tried redownloading a few times on different devices and connections and flashing them but they all won't flash. I'm done trying unless someone has ideas. I'm all out of them right now.
[Moto X Android Development] MichaelMcEntire:
So, I wasn't getting the update. I used the the system dump to flash with fastboot. It seems that supersu is preinstalled on the system image. That would be fine, however I believe it causes security settings force close on tap. This stopped me from being able to check unknown sources. I got around it by going back to 4.2 then flashing the 4.4 system image without wiping. However security settings still can't be accessed. Can we get a dump without supersu preinstalled?
[Moto X Android Development] autoprime:
like some others... I simply clicked the "update moto software" button after copying the update onto /sdcard. it detected I had an update on /sdcard.. asked it I wanted to copy it to system memory so it could be flashed(I hit yes) then proceeded to install the update. No messing around with recovery at all.
[Moto X Android Development] MichaelMcEntire:
Do you have any issues with security settings?
[Moto X Android Development] bso44:
For those of you who got it to update this way, are you rooted?
[Moto X Android Development] tjeeeeee:
i tried this with root and twrp 2.6.3.1 and it'll reboot to twrp and fail to flash
[Moto X Android Development] bso44:
Right, it definitely won't work if you have a custom recovery. I'm wondering if it would work if you're rooted with stock recovery though. Asking because [MENTION=3380378]dobbs3x[/MENTION] hasn't been able to get it updated using the method cited above so I'm thinking you need to be unrooted with stock recovery.
[Moto X Android Development] tjeeeeee:
dang, kinda wishing i could get stock recovery now
[Moto X Android Development] dobbs3x:
Here's what I'm getting when trying to flash in twrp.

When trying in stock recovery it doesn't give me any results or text output to see what's up. Just stops and clears any output so I can't see if it's giving a similar error although I suspect it is because the both error out a few seconds I to the process.
[Moto X Android Development] autoprime:
I was not rooted. 100% stock.

as for the 4.4 update... has anyone noticed no ^ or v arrows over the 3G/4G symbol? data works fine.. but I see no indication of data being used in the status bar(tho I do see moving arrows in the quick panel menu). :confused:
[Moto X Android Development] bso44:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...nd-only-shows-connectivity-in-quick-settings/
[Moto X Android Development] dobbs3x:
Its gotta be the root that's causing it to not flash. I'll try unrooting and see.
[Moto X Android Development] autoprime:
oh nice.. thanks for pointing that. must have missed that along the way. cm11 still has arrows so I guess I assumed that was the KK "norm".

:good:
[Moto X Android Development] tjeeeeee:
i don't want to lose anything though, might just wait a few days and see if someone makes a stock odex/deoxed roms with root, its bound to happen eventually
[Moto X Android Development] supervandy:
I tried flashing in stock recovery and it started for a few seconds then gave me this error:

Installation aborted.

Anyone have any ideas? I can still boot, but now WiFi will not turn on... Should mention that previous to doing this, I was rooted, but I followed instructions I saw elsewhere to flash the system.img and recovery.img through moto fastboot, then apply the update zip via stock recovery.
[Moto X Android Development] flashallthetime:
Its checking what version your phone has which is 13/ 9 but you need version 13/11, so you need

[Moto X Android Development] tjeeeeee:
did you have root when flashing? I believe you should go full stock then do the update

---------- Post added at 01:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:52 AM ----------

So I flashed a stock odex ROM that came without root. Pushed stock recovery and still can't get ota to pop up or force the ota zip from the op to finish a flash. I can get the zip to be seen by the motorola software updater if I put it in sdcard root and it will reboot to recovery and show it updating then says "error" really quick and then reboots the original rom and pop ups a message saying the update failed. Im on the latest version so it should be good to go. The only thing I could think to try is to rsdlite, but the firmware site that hosts all the stock firmwares has had 2 hdd failures and is down. I have not been able to hunt down any mirrors for these stock firmwares so not much I can try anymore.

Maybe tomorrow some dev will make up a ROM for us step child sprint peeps.
