Guys,

Very nice news indeed! I've talked with David Schuster at G+...he confirmed that Moto/Google team already updated the support pages...it's just a matter of time...
[RAZR i General] ljoova:

i hope motorola will release it soon.

[RAZR i General] rickozx:
So man, who was right ?

I find this very funny that you're telling people to stop whining. Just sayin ;)

As i said before, buying a company is not like buying a box of kleenex. It will take months if not a year before the deal got approved, and that the change of direction, objectives, goals, ideology, will begin to change on the lower levels. The update or not of the razr i and any other devices was decided before lenovo and lenovo has nothing to do with that.

So all the crying babies will sleep better tonight huh ? :D
[RAZR i General] RafaelOliveira:
Yeaaaaaaaaaaah!!!! Amazing news! And I really hope that Motorola/Lenovo put a transparent nav bar, like the Nexus 5 with Kit Kat, it'd be very nice!

'Sup guys, I also own a Moto RAZR i and I will also lose my patience for an update to 4.4.2 Kitkat !

The thing is, yesterday I read a comment a guy wrote on Motorola's Fb page (in France) that said (I translated really quickly) :

No matter what he says about French carriers and retailers, it seems that the update is planned for very soon !
[RAZR i General] Merinorus:
Latin America I guess because there's no RAZR i in North America (officially). See the availables models in Brazil : motorola.com.br/consumers/razr-phones

But I would be surprised if our phone was updated before the RAZR M / HD / Maxx MD ! Maybe all the models will get kitkat very soon :angel:

I am happy with that.
[RAZR i General] patoberli:
Yeah, but I think it never was really marketed as included. Maybe there is even a licensing issue. Whatever the reason, they removed it with 4.1.
[RAZR i General] arthur_felipe:
I got the Razr I since ICS... Sad to know that I had a phone with a FM radio. Kinda the same feeling I had when I updated my GTab P1000L with Cyanogen, losing the digital TV. ¬¬'

Question: do OTA updates work fine on unlocked BLs? And how about rooted phones? I guess I'm not the only one to have this doubt.
[RAZR i General] Marco Lomas:
For Ota updates, its necesary to have stock recovery and last stock firmware, it doesnt matter if you have unlocked bootloader, i recommend when kitkat its released, wait for a complete firmware release, its more secure :D

[RAZR i General] paulle:
Excuse my noob question, is it possible once 4.4 is released to make a flashable zip of it and flash it with twrp or cwm ?
[RAZR i General] arthur_felipe:
Great. Not that I'm in a hurry, but it's better asking it before than fixing it later.

In time: here's a link to the stock recovery, posted in another topic.
[RAZR i General] Marco Lomas:
Yes of course, once the firmware its released its possible to make flashable zips :) its like the homemade fastboot of Jelly bean when the Jb firmware begin to roll out :)

I asked fot the official Motorola Brazil account on twitter(@Motorola_BR) and they reply "Estamos em fase de teste, mas ainda não temos uma data fechada para a disponibilização dessa atualização, aguarde novidades."

I dont know very well portuguese but i guess " We are on testing phase, we dont have a exactly date, wait for new releases"

[RAZR i General] dj_mol3y_x8:
When I was phoned by the moto chat team to let me know that the RAZR I would get the KitKat 4.4.2 update. I asked about release date for the rollout to start I was told that it would be soon.

BUT for how long did the Motorola update page say future plan coming soon.

But that said Motorola have made changes as go back 2 years and they would not of updated a near 18 month phone.

So the fact that we are waiting for a update is not as bad as no update.

:just saying:
[RAZR i General] DMTwo:
Well it seems that finally Motorola decided to update our device.

In English

In Portuguese (Brazil)

https://motorola-global-portal-pt.c...nFGMjNVek9sIiwic2Vzc2lvbklEIjoicUYyM1V6T2wifQ..

I’ve talked to a Motorola employee by online chat and she confirmed that it will be updated, however there’s no schedule or a date to this be released.

By the way, I’m happy to get this new information!

Now I think that my XT890 will last more one year…
[RAZR i General] lucasarran:
Something needs to be done about this thread. Everyone is repeating the same thing without looking at previous pages.

Fact: Motorola is updating our device to KitKat. We've known this for about a week.
[RAZR i General] rickozx:
Agree, this thread should be closed, and any new thread saying the same thing deleted.

Until the "4.4 available NOW" thread.
[RAZR i General] leuofiridia:
I agree
[RAZR i General] PatricioJP:
Perdon, hice un comentario fuera de tema, jejeje, estoy de acuerdo con lo que dicen.

Sorry, I made a comment off topic, lol, I agree with what they say.
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
I agree. Tired of hearing people who never seem to be satisfied. We know it's coming, it's all just a matter of patience now.
[RAZR i General] adddaamo:
Everyone is happy with The Good News and wants to share with everyone. What's wrong with that ?

Every day I talk with my neighborhood about weather, it's like every day repeating same thing, why should I do anything about it?

Some subjects exists so people could talk about them, this is one of these.
[RAZR i General] xianuro:
Weather changes on a daily basis; the fact that motorola is releasing KK for our device does not.

We know it's coming, we know we're happy about it, and we know that not matter how much we discuss it and bug Moto's Customer Services about it, we will not speed up its release.

So yeah, +1 on the "lock thread". At the very least until we know a date...
[RAZR i General] iolinux333:
Yes. Unfortunately I've been watching threadlockers destroy previously great forums since the days of Usenet. You know, that small percentage of people that ruin everything.
[RAZR i General] adddaamo:
I do wonder if we will get ART Runtime with 4.4. I've tried to google any information but without luck. Optimized x86 ART could improve performance and battery life of xt890 significantly, but it's almost to much to hope for.
[RAZR i General] majinfusion:
I was thinking of getting a new phone..but with this news, I think i will wait until after 4.4 is released and use this phone for awhile longer...hopefully it's not too long!
[RAZR i General] ciberbeb:
That would be a very good thing.

I googled a bit and found some source code on the Android x86 branch.

Even if ART is still in its early stage in KitKat, we may have it in this next update.

Can you share a link to that source?

[RAZR i General] yostyle:
If Motorola will update all these "old" smartphones at the latest release 4.4 she'll grant the name of "best brand" (of course after Google) for what concern updates. It will be an advantage for us, but also for the brand. Hope that we'll receive soon official info.
[RAZR i General] nomboly:
Actually it is very sad to say that Motorola will grant itself the name of "best brand" just because of doing what must be done. But it is true, sadly true. And I am at least 60% convinced that they will...
[RAZR i General] bongofred:
Good news, looking forward to an official announcement.

Gesendet von meinem XT890 mit Tapatalk
[RAZR i General] Jamielawther:
Why? They actually make good phones, their software is light and fast. Not full of gimmicks like S this and S that.
[RAZR i General] nomboly:
What I was trying to say was that a brand should not stand out for updating their recent mobile phones because that is what every brand should and must do. It is not OK to sell a product and 6 months later ditch support for it (sorry for my average english). After all, I am on your side, motorola makes good phones and has done most of the best ones...
[RAZR i General] Jamielawther:
I understand where you're coming from, but most consumers (the majority of people receiving these updates) probably don't even know the existence of newer versions of Android and therefore buy a new phone to get it. The Galaxy Nexus is an interesting case however, 18 months later and no more support, that is unusual for a Nexus - most likely because of the TI chipsets used, the manufacturer (Samsung for Google in this case) aren't to blame for the lack of support or updates because the chipset vendor mightn't support it.
[RAZR i General] nomboly:
I know the issue with GN, and I have experienced it myself with LG Optimus Black, where a TI OMAP 3630 is implemented, but well in those cases, we can't blame anybody but the market (TI fall). However, I still think, that companies that are responsible of making phones should continue updating them, to a certain point, a 128mb ram 600mhz cpu is obviously quite useless nowadays. I know that updating phones is a dilemma, because I know a bit of programming. I take your point, that most of the people don't even know the existence of Android updates, and you are right at it, one of my friends had a GS2 with android 2.3.x in it, and 4.1 was showing to update, but she wouldn't do it because she was afraid of breaking it.
[RAZR i General] adddaamo:
We'll, updates to new OS are difficult thing, especially when hardware doesn't change Look what apple did with iOS and iPhone 4, new system on old hardware makes phone more sluggish, and just worse Same thing with android My old phone was Defy, and official android release was 2.3, it worked very well on that version of android I've installed couple times CM 10 (unofficial) and always went back to 2.3 - why? Because hardware wasn't capable of handling Android 4.0, many enthusiasts was on new android, but after I've gave defy to my girlfriend she preferred also 2.3 For her important was that phone works fast and reliable, not the number of android and that is the thing with most of the people Phone is a phone, I've heard menu iPhone users that complain after updating to iOS 7, and I understand them Same with android, I prefer fast software than me one, especially on my phone Now, I've got new hangout and chrome and they starts really slow compared to my old apps, so if Motorola can't make them to work better on new os should they update android?
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
Wasn't 4.4 designed to work with lower specs though? I understand that upgrading old phones to new software isn't always good, but from how kitkat sounds, seems like our little razr that could can handle it :)
[RAZR i General] adddaamo:
RAZR I will handle 4.4 perfectly but I'm not sure if it will handle new Google apps good enough. Right now I'm using new hangouts and it's much slower than default SMS app, hangout starts about 3secs, SMS app instantly. Same with chrome, default internet app starts instantly, chrome about 5secs. I hope that KitKat will improve this, but for me right now it seems like Google is speaking one thing, and it's doing other.
[RAZR i General] yostyle:
Aaaand. I think that our RAZR isn't that bad about specs. If it can handle 4.1 (that for what I know, is the heavier android version ever made) very well, updating it to any future release, there won't be any problem in my opinion :)
[RAZR i General] paulle:
the problem is motorola (or google). they simply aren't interested in updating the razr i. the only hope is cm maybe one day will support the razr i.:(
[RAZR i General] yostyle:
But the "future plan coming soon" on their sites? :( i 'm checking that page (UK) every hour waiting for the change. How much time will they get to decide what to do with our xt890 (in your opinion)?

I don't care that much for the update since I already got the improved keyboard so I could ditch 3rd party.

But some people care about the phones I tell them to look at and if they do the minimal and release a first update I may tell them to look at Motorola. I'm taking adult people. Wannabe v and teenager and girls couldn't get better then Samsung

Seeing as this update is coming, we should probably work on figuring out how to go back to stock. Can you update straight from a stock rom even if it's rooted?
[RAZR i General] Chamelleon:
1. fastboot oem lock

2. flash full sbf from Your region

Tada Yu're back to stock.
[RAZR i General] Marco Lomas:
Lock the bootloader its not recommended, only flash stock rsd lite package and thats all, if you lock the bootloader you are closing the door for future custom roms

Yup but maybe update gonna needs locked bootloader and in this case after update You can unlock it again by flashing rsd file. If it wont be needed just flash full sbf and that's it in case of preparations.
