It has been said from the beginning that the launcher will stay the same!
[RAZR i General] Omar-Avelar:
It is quite interesting that the 3D benchmark goes that high when using KitKat, can't wait to have it in my hands and put my modified Kernel on top :angel:
[RAZR i General] leonelsr:
So, now you've got root, what are we waiting to get this system dump? :)
[RAZR i General] paulle:
I'm sure kitkat and your modifications will be great.
[RAZR i General] 5m00v3:
i dont want a dump with bugs and debugging tools draining my battery...

4.4 apps

1.Do you know if the active display is working?

2. The motorola apps are avaliable for download of the play store?

3. The camera app is updated?

4. The batterry consumption of play music have improved?
[RAZR i General] leonelsr:
Well, I do. And I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one.

We don't know how long it'll take for Motorola to release this OTA for everybody; but once we put our hands on it, we can start the tinkering and even have some binaries working on Omar's JB improvement and/or drivers helping us to figure out that CM11 that got stuck months ago...

Still, hope someone releases this dump soon :)
[RAZR i General] xNeo92x:
Small system update (6,4MB) right now. But can't install it. After restart, the phone boots into recovery without a reason. Just wiped cache and dalvik and gonna try it again...

EDIT:

Didn't work. Installing the downloaded zip (6,4MB) through TWRP won't work either. I'm thinking about installing stock recovery or CWM.

I don't know if I can flash the stock recovery from 4.1.2 on 4.4.2 :/

EDIT:

Problem solved. Got a stock recovery from Hazou and the update worked.
[RAZR i General] zheka99:
Any visible changes ?
[RAZR i General] xNeo92x:
Not really. In the official statement they say, that it fixes problems with SMS, gets audio volume up (hissing sound is still there) and "a couple more fixes".

Just made an Antutu benchmark again. The score dropped down on 16819 :/
[RAZR i General] godoy.rafa:
The Brazilian site below says that kitkat is being sent to retail phones ota. Anyone can confirm?

Can you confirm that our device has now Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity?

[RAZR i General] chuckiebronco:
That is still the Beta version (of the testdrive program). On the first pictures you can see the Motorola Bug reporter and the monitoring app battery tracer.
[RAZR i General] luisdev:
when the final version will be released? I have the razr with the Blur_Version.91.2.26001.XT890.O2.en.DE, unfortunately I noticed that the voice is stuck in the update menu, what must I do to flash version .Retail.en.GB for receiving the OTA KIT KAT?
[RAZR i General] 5m00v3:
i recommend waiting for instructions to flash KK directly without OTA.

As soon as we got the final firmware, there will be a thread about updating to KK...
[RAZR i General] raol.xh:
Can somrone check if muzei works now.thanx
[RAZR i General] arman68:
[MENTION=5142414]xNeo92x[/MENTION]: please refrain from leaking too much information; this contravenes the NDA.

One thing is 100% sure: the KitKat update is coming soon to our Razr i. Considering this will most likely be the last update we will see, it is better to be patient and making sure Motorola delivers a stable, bug free rom.

In fact, I am very impressed with Motorola. They are working fast and diligently on the update. And as you can tell from the news about the second beta, 2 weeks after the first one, they are getting some useful feedback and making the needed changes.

I actually have not come across any other phone manufacturer which showed this level of dedication. Our device is more than 2 years old after all. And it still rocks! It is the first phone I have had which lasted so long and stood the test of time. Now that we are getting KitKat, and hopefully CM11 following that, I am looking forward to another couple of years use. Kudos to Motorola and Intel.
[RAZR i General] ICuaI:
I am not really waiting for CM11. While reading around some forums, there are many more or less big bugs in it. So waiting for a modified stockrom again (hi [MENTION=339832]arman68[/MENTION] and Omar*:D) *or do it myself with root and Xposed*:p
[RAZR i General] bughunt3r:
I think that bugs you have read about may be device specific, because as far as I know cm11 is stable and mostly bugfree [emoji53]

Besides ART It even works on my old defy+
[RAZR i General] ICuaI:
It works on my Defy, too. But that is not an official CM11 and has enough bugs to solve.

Maybe it is just a personal impression but I think since CM is commercial CM isn't as good as it was before.

But that's quite off topic here ;)
[RAZR i General] Agustinb14:
Does anyone know if the new motorola apps will work? Motorola Assist, Motorola Alert, etc? I'd love to have them on my razr i.
[RAZR i General] Tim24:
The RAZR i with KitKat can now connect to my Bluetooth 4.0 Heart Rate Monitor and sync with my Garmin Vivofit Tracker. This did not work with JB.
[RAZR i General] pajo985:
I don't get it how this is possible...

XT890 have BT 2.1...

strange
[RAZR i General] skupi20:
It's looks like that in JB hardware was BT4 ready, but software not.

Hello,

is there a link to download cm11 for razr-i? A version wich i can install via cwm.
[RAZR i General] dog121:
Sorry uncle-m no cm11...and this is the wrong thread have a look in the development thread...you might find something you like....
[RAZR i General] guillote5800:
if you can find the link one, with no bugs or more or less stable, please share with us.:D
[RAZR i General] uncle-m:
OK. Thanks.
[RAZR i General] leonelsr:
Nope. Not here :(
[RAZR i General] leonelsr:
I can not understand WHY is it so difficult for one of those lucky people who managed to get the beta to upload a system.img dump. :(
[RAZR i General] raol.xh:
because they feel special and won't share their treasure with any one.don't come and tell me about the nda ****.everyone can make a false account on xda...i would have liked to test the beta too.anyway,guess i'll wait for the final version now...
[RAZR i General] Le_Poilu:
Yes there is a NDA, and it's not about making a "fake account" here. It's about leaking something that might include way to trace the source of the leak.

When you accept to be part of the program you give motorola the Serial number and the EMEI of your phone. So they might be able to find who is the source of the leak.
[RAZR i General] raol.xh:
and then find where you live and kill you and your family.c'mon dude...
[RAZR i General] Le_Poilu:
if you are so smart, why didn't you sign up for the beta program ? you'll be able to have the ROM and leak it as you think it's so obvious ...

So easy to criticize ...
[RAZR i General] Locazoo:
please be patience, there's no rush and no reason to be trolling people.
[RAZR i General] axhng:
Patiently waiting here. :D

I last owned the RAZR i a year back, and then over the year, I've tried newer offerings from Motorola like the Moto X and G. I recently just bought a RAZR i again when I saw someone selling it locally. (where i live the RAZR i isn't being sold officially, it's a rare phone.) Actually even 4.1.2 is still pretty decent on the RAZR i. And i forgot how nice the device is to use one handed. It's actually significantly smaller than the Moto G which is really nice. :D

I think the update is kinda a big deal though. It shows commitment from Motorola that they are going to support their own devices for as long as they can. For Intel, it's an even bigger deal since one of the main thing that turned me off from Intel powered devices was the lack of updates on my old RAZR i last year. This will show that Intel is serious about the mobile industry, and they will support their own product.

Or maybe I'm just over thinking things. But if Motorola and Intel really updates the RAZR i, a 2 year old phone to 4.4, I will feel a little bit more comfortable buying newer phones with Intel chips.
[RAZR i General] St4mi:
Yay! So Intel, please give Motorola a 3.4+ Kernel...

And new fast drivers. [emoji5]
[RAZR i General] Hazou:
They already put some nice enhancements to the linux kernel for future MID devices. Even ours is updated and i hope we can get a clean kernel source from Motorola and add the new ones (if not implemented) from the upstream linux one.
[RAZR i General] manchasolar:
As if we weren't all tuned... LOL
[RAZR i General] cupioscire:
I've asked Motorola support (Germany). And they told me that they don't know if and when RAZR I gets updated.

Gesendet von meinem XT890 mit Tapatalk
[RAZR i General] YaPeL:
Guys, stop asking the guys of support when our devices are going to be updated, they don't know sh1t, they are there just to answer basic questions.
[RAZR i General] espaciosalter20:
A lot of people making guesses about RAZR I... Here is my guess: this is the stupid business of making phones, which the manufactures thinks that update an "old" phones would cannibalizing the sells of new phones on market. Nor Motorola, nor Intel are interested on make updates happens on this devices for this reason. Intel is embarked on making better SoC for mobiles so keep interested on this first platform doesn't give them any advantage for his future.

In the other hand, asking to Motorola support sites doesn't help to clear things. It happens with Atrix, defy, which in Motorola support sites says that they will have updates and all the world can see the true about this. So, the better bet to something above 4.1.2 for RAZR I it's that someone could adapt properly that opensource project which runs android 4.2.2 over Intel SoC.

[RAZR i General] arison1988:
There will be NO update to 4.4 just got an answer from Motorola Support (German)
[RAZR i General] cupioscire:
As you can see from the different answers people get from Motorola support team, they have no real information about it and so they say sometimes yes and sometimes no.

It's embarrassing for Motorola that their support team isn't well informed about such things and that they can't say 'we haven't got information about it, yet'.

My suggestion is that we get an update to kitkat in a few months, because it's their Intel powered flagship and not a old phone at all.

But let's see. It wouldn't be the first motofail

Gesendet von meinem XT890 mit Tapatalk
[RAZR i General] dagoban:
Exactly my point, too.

Support doesn't know since they are probably not even authorized to know. Once they are allowed to share it with the public I'm 100% they will also announce it themselves online.
[RAZR i General] YaPeL:
Their job is to answer things like, HOW DO I GET DA APP, HOW DO I PUT MUSIC IN DA PHONE, HOW DO I MAKE CALL

or the more hardcore answer: HOW DO I RESET DA PHONE.

Its not only on motorola, this happens in a lot of different service, IE: call your carrier, and some times they don't have an idea of what phones they will start selling or such.

And about intel don't caring: they released the Lexington platform that basically its our platform running @ 1.2ghz, also pvr already have updated drivers so... its a matter of how willing to update our device are the motorola guys.
[RAZR i General] chuckiebronco:
So let's just wait and see what (if so) will come...

I personally think there won't be an update at all. And even if, it probably won't be kitkat but 4.2 or so, they're way too lame...

So, Moto, c'mon prove me wrong! :fingers-crossed:
[RAZR i General] cupioscire:
Kitkat just leaked for moto x T-Mobile. Motorola is getting fast

Gesendet von meinem XT890 mit Tapatalk
[RAZR i General] YaPeL:
yes because

they are dropping support for our razr i in order to speed up the development for the moto x, lol just kidding
[RAZR i General] leonelsr:
Facebook pages and Twitter profiles are run by Advertising Agencies out of the client company. More specifically by intern advertising agents. Not even their supervisors know sh* about the product engineering.

Support is done outside the company too, often even outside the costumer's country.

My first internship was in an Advertising Agency. My job was to explain the ad guys (writers, designers) the most basic tech details about the Hell computer products they were making ads to. Things like the difference between Hyper Threading, Dual Core, Dual Channel, Dual Boot and Dual Processors. I was paid US$ 75,00 a week for doing this =D. The client's Facebook page was run by 3 people who were paid a little more than me (maybe US$ 80,00 a week).

I think that Razr i XT890 was a market test. They linked the Intel brand with mobile devices, evaluated the public opinion on this (including us, the nerd community) and that was it, Mission Accomplished.

For the users it was worth it because hey, it's a pretty good device for reasonable price! Not being sold in the United States made its hacker community too small, so mabe we couldn't achieve the "full power" of the device, like "we" did, for example, with the Defy and Defy+.

I agree with someone who said Intel is now focused on bringing better SoCs. Heavily based on the market response to Medfield on XT890. We should start to see more Motos, Samsungs, LGs, Asuses bringing x86 architecture now. Motorola, now a Google subsidiary, is focused on the X, maybe the beginning of a new Nexus-like line.I wouldn't be surprised if a X-like device came up with a Intel Inside logo on its back by Q2 2014.

About XT890 getting an Official upgrade to 4.4, I don't think it's gonna happen. I really hope and pray for it, but it's not likely. Our device had its job done. It was meant to be the first, I doubt it's going to last for too long.

But the number of developers and hack-willing people with XT890s on their hands is increasing! Remember Defy shipped with 2.1 but someday got CM10. And Cyanogenmod is putting efforts on other x86 phones. And Omar Avelar is getting pretty good with the i. And other developers are starting to study the device.

I think we might have 4.4, but by our owns.

That's it :)

Sorry for the long post. Sorry even more for the terrible English. It's been a while since I only speak Brazilian Portuguese.
[RAZR i General] adddaamo:
If we don't get 4.4 I'm switching to Nexus line, and never go back.

Why? For example because of that:

http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...-in-secret-for-over-2-years-debuts-in-kitkat/

New runtime in Kit Kat, change from Dalvik to ART, for me it's the most important change in android since 2.2 In short code is compiled to native when executing for the first time It can speed apps startup two-three times, and also speedup code execution a lot.

It can phones with older hardware fly

I just can't wait for 4.4.
[RAZR i General] arison1988:
This means goodbye KitKat! dont think they will port this to Intels soc

Gesendet von meinem XT890 mit Tapatalk
[RAZR i General] adddaamo:
I think they will If not they, then Intel will port it to x86 It will take just a little bit longer but this is still experimental stuff so it's obvious that it'll take time

Beside people from CM have stated making x86 port, so sooner or later we'll get it:D
[RAZR i General] leonelsr:
I still think either the Nexus line is going to have some Motorola devices, or Moto X is going to be the "next" Nexus Line, or one of the Nexus/X is going to be a x86.

But, yeah, ART is a great leap. You can bet Intel is actively helping in its developing and optimization, otherwise there would make no sense to have x86 devices.
[RAZR i General] cet.junior:
Almost certanly KitKat upgrade for Brazil (see attc.)

Hi guys!

I've just talked with the Morotola's brazilian support and they confirmed to me that we are going to receive the Android 4.4 KitKat upgrade, they just don't know when. Below, is my transcription of the chat in english (sorry if it's not perfect) and, attached, the PDF in portuguese (Brazil).

=========================

Motorola Support Chat Transcription

Michele: Hi, my name is Michele. How can I help you?

Carlos: Hello Michele, good morning

Michele: Good morning!

Michele: How you're doing?

Carlos: Fine

Carlos: I have a Motorola RAZR i (XT890) and would like to know if it will receive any update for an Android version newer than the current one, the 4.1.2?

Carlos: For example, for the Android 4.4?

Carlos: If yes, when? Any prediction?

Michele: The device will receive the 4.4 upgrade, but we don't an official date for lauching it, Carlos.

Michele: I have an important advice for a better performance of your device. I recommend that you shutdown your phone at least once for each 24 hours. By shutting it down, the memory will be clean, your cache will be empty and any fail situations in PA (app processor) will be released, giving you a better performance in general.

Carlos: Ok, acknowledge.

Carlos: Ok. Can you tell me if this version is already in internal testing?

Michele: I don't know, Carlos, because this updates was lauched this week in USA.

Carlos: I see

Carlos: Is there any way for being notified when this upgrade is ready, or just waiting?

Carlos: Like, when it's available?

Michele: As soon as it get available we will lauch in our website, social networks and your will receive it in your device.

Carlos: Ok!

Carlos: It was just that, Michele

Michele: It was a pleasure to help you today, I would like you to participate a survey about my assistance. I would be very thankful for any comment or sugestion that you could offer to us, your opinion is very important to me. For the survey to be available, its important that you click in "Disconnect" and only after that, click "Close". The Motorola thank you for the contact and will be available for any other doubt that you may have, we wish you to have a nice day and an excellent weekend!

Carlos: Thank you very much for the information and have a nice day!

Carlos: Sure, no problem

Michele: ^^

Carlos: kss!

Michele: Kisses, Bye!

Michele disconnected.

=========================

Hope that you liked it!

Cheers!

In the USA ? They have Razr M not Razr I
[RAZR i General] rodrigoauditore:
She's referring to 4.4 kitkat in general, not the update for us
[RAZR i General] YaPeL:
she meants the kitkat release-

However, suppot doesn't know sh1t, don't bother asking them, they are not a reliable source of info, lets just wait and have a little bit of faith in moto.
[RAZR i General] leonelsr:
Oh, come on! How old are we? If people were worried about the NDA, they wouldn't have posted the screenshots in the first place. I wouldn't. I know something about law, I have signed some NDAs (personally, as a business and online), and do you really think that Motorola wouldn't have some ¶ about publishing images or even mentioning publicly that you are in the beta program? Please. Motorola wants us to share and stress test (knowing and not bothering that there will be bugs) this thing, it's better for them.

You are not so special for them to care if you will or will not leak their NDA'd product. Otherwise they would be paying you for this job, probably have you signed a Contract (not an EULA or any agreement) not sending you something and automatically collecting stats from your user behaviour.

The guy who said that people are just enjoying beign "special" was right.

At this stage of the development process, at wich the are having people beta testing for them "OTA", without any kind of Contract, for free, they wouldnt sue someone for leaking the software. They would only do this if the product was a fiasco.

But ok, let's hope someone with the sense of community shares a dump OR wait until Motorola Releases it :).

Where was the signup form? Who I had to ask? I was never smart enough to find (or notice) this. Criticizing is easy, sharing and explaining things is not.

---------- Post added at 12:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:13 AM ----------

Though I'm a computer scientist, I know little about code portability and NOTHING about SoCs or embbeded devices at all. :D

But isn't it x86 architecture? Apart from some custom interruptions implementations and the drivers specific for each peripheral , souldn't the same kernel we compile for computers or other x86 devices work? With drivers compiled from the JB? What changes? We have the source code for the JB implementation. What don't we have?

How does it differs from a ordinary PC? Doesn't the BIOS looks for a specific address in the memory then JUMP there and do things when it's called by some specific INTs? Isn't it part of the x86 specification? Or only the instruction sets are?

Seriously, I want to learn that. hahah
[RAZR i General] Le_Poilu:
Posting a screenshot and leaking a dump of the system is not exactly the same ....

If you follow this thread the only things you have to know where here, and the most obvious way is on the motorola support forum:

I already purchased the Moto360 but I can't install Android Wear(running only on Android 4.3+) on our i:(
[RAZR i General] xNeo92x:
Yeah, you have to wait for 4.4.

I've tested it on the 4.4.2 beta and the app runs without problems. But I couldn't test the connection, because I don't have a smartwatch/android wear device.

Thanks for the reply. Hope we get KK real soon :highfive:
[RAZR i General] DeehSlash:
4.4.2 update has been released for Razr D1 and D3 yesterday (at least here on Brazil), first for retail phones.

FM radio

what about FM radio in 4.4? Will it work again? Could someone with beta rom check it please - I'm just curios if 4.4 will be as good as stock one :)
[RAZR i General] axhng:
I don't think we will see kitkat before Android L's release. But frankly I'm surprised that they are even bringing the update to the phone. The phone is almost 2 year old and only available in a few countries. I'm sure there isn't actually that many users still using the device. Nonetheless, even on 4.1.2, the phone is still decent to use. The speed and responsiveness of the device is still decent too. Even after using newer flagship devices, I can still comfortably use this as my daily driver. Really excited about the 4.4 update, but patiently waiting. :)
[RAZR i General] xtr3m3:
FM radio wasn't officially supported.
[RAZR i General] St.Noigel:
It was supported on 4.0.4 ICS ;)
[RAZR i General] xNeo92x:
Nope, no FM radio.
[RAZR i General] DeehSlash:
I'm just saying because we don't have forums about D1 and D3 here and that might be good news for someone, and probably if they are releasing for D1 and D3 then I is coming soon.
[RAZR i General] Tamsta_T:
All I 'm looking for is working feature and not an official support ;)
[RAZR i General] AGISCI:
It wasn't supported... the specs for the phone don't list radio. Somehow the chip for radio was was included in the hardware. They removed the ability to use it because it isn't supported by motorola.
[RAZR i General] :
I tested Motorola Radio FM apk from ICS= crashes immediatlely

can't run Spirit Radio app because it needs root access and Motorola impose you to not root KitKat beta ROM :'(

engineers said they will never include Radio FM drivers...
[RAZR i General] mervluk:
I stayed on ics to keep FM, but quite frankly the outdated RAZRi TI FM chip isn't really up to the job with lots of static, compared to Qualcomm and Broadcom chips. Without tinkering with sound mods the FM sound isn't amongst the best either. Spirit has abandoned compatibility and I have to use an early 2013 version. So I doubt the drivers would be available for kitkat for an obsolete chip.
[RAZR i General] incrazyboyy:
I guess Omar managed to port the radio on JB...
