FOLKS, i need HELP!

I've flashed the 4.4 brazil (KIA20.70) with twrp 2.8.0.1

Bevore I made a nandroid backup from Omar's 4.1 with CWM 6.0.5.0

Because I have had problems with the 4.4. (lags), I wanted to go back by cwm but I got the message: “Error while restoring /system!”

I tried wiping with cwm and also with twrp, but no luck.

Go back to 4.4 by the nandroid backup is also failing, cause the data-section seems to be copied twice into internal memory, so it aborts with memory filled.

Is there a way to extract or manupulate the nand-backups or "format" the device in another way?
[RAZR i General] chuckiebronco:
Tried flashing original JB rom with RSDlite already? After that you can hopefully install CWM and restore your Backup.

[RAZR i General] Sui77:
Managed to get my first Backup onto the phone.

I restored with cwm 6.0.3.7 after i RENAMED the nand-backup!

There was a blank in the name, cause I added JB behind the date

Anybody working on a rooting method for KK? Because i want to update via OTA...
[RAZR i General] AGISCI:
If your bootloader is unlocked, you can flash a custom recovery then root it using the supersu zip file.
[RAZR i General] Chamelleon:
If You have root on 4.1.2 You can update and root wont be removed.

Hey guys, does having android 4.4 increase the chace of getting cyanogenmod? That would be amazing :confused:

:cool:
[RAZR i General] gwapenut:
I notice on the earlier Europe Beta rom thread that battery life is worse than stock JB on that ROM because of cycling between H/H+ etc.

Is battery life on this Brazilian final rom also worse than stock JB? What about if only in 2G mode?
[RAZR i General] chuckiebronco:
To clearify, Greenify (also non beta) works perfectly as long as you uncheck the (experimental) Wakeup Tracker & Cutoff (or tracking awakenings in older versions) Feature. This is the thing causing problems, nothing to do with xposed or anything else.
[RAZR i General] dicrossus:
where is this option? because in experimental functions menu, everything is unchecked and i dont use xposed....

Battery Life in Kit Kat

Hi,

i think is better the Battery Life in Kit Kat,

you maybe need recalibrate after install.
[RAZR i General] FarGuddu:
Any news on the 4.4.2 update?
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
I can honestly say that battery life has been much worse on KK than JB, idle times are horrendous. Mid_pmu and hsi wakelocks plague my device, and I'm lucky to get two hours screen time at best.
[RAZR i General] nomboly:
You see, I was just like you, shouting out loud bad words to Motorola, until one day, I uninstalled some apps, I don't remember which ones, but lets say, BetterBattery Stats, some games like Batman, and disabled ART, got Greenify and Xposed, uninstalled Facebook and Messenger, in search for the solution. You know what? It didn't solve anything. So I got damn tired, bought a good portable charger and re-installed every app that I wanted. And all of a sudden the next day, everything was working marvellously, so I stopped touching and let it be... I get 3.30 hs of screen on time, and that is as much as I have been able to get...
[RAZR i General] Eserim:
OK - shoot me down if I am wrong, but doesn't it take a week or so of full cycles to get optimal battery use as the phone builds up the stats on the battery? I'm sure the last time I did a factory reset for the first week usage seemed horrid, then slowly got better
[RAZR i General] nomboly:
As far as i know, it shouldnt take more than 2-3 days...
[RAZR i General] clickstop:
It's been a couple weeks since I updated, so that shouldn't be an issue anymore. I have nothing against moto, at least they got us the update. Still, I don't think anyone can deny that battery life on KK is worse than JB.

I've also had issues with my signal dropping all the time; for anyone in the US, make sure to change your APN to the non-LTE one I found that that helped.
[RAZR i General] khaledm_92:
SO when are we actually getting the update OTA? I've bought this phone from europe and I've got nothing till now. Giving us the update way after 5.0 has been released is just pathetic IMO.
[RAZR i General] f3bruary:
There are many more popular phones around that didn't even get kitkat, so you should feel lucky like most of us razr i users do. They are taking their time though I'll give you that
[RAZR i General] quincyquinn:
22th of November was the last responses from anyone at Motorola in the beta forum a week or two for the response before that, I'm thinking they wish they never started this as its a lot more trouble than it's worth. Wouldn't be surprised if they dropped this side project. Hope I wrong because a lot for people are looking forward to the update but after been on the beta testing from the start 4.4.2 as it is needs a lot of work, after four months I'm back on 4.1.2 and I think its the version this phone well stay on...
[RAZR i General] FarGuddu:
I also think that it looks unlikely that we will get an update. So many delays already. I am kind of not excited or interested anymore.
[RAZR i General] St4mi:
Quite pessimistic, don't you think?

As it has been said many times, because there are quite some bugs left I/we hope Motorola is fixing them for the final release...
[RAZR i General] kamutka:
97 pages of stupidity. Who on the Earth yet beliefs that Motorola may bring 4.4.2 to this obsolete handset?

From the post #1 I knew that Motorola won't do much. They screwed so many times with promised updates for so many phones and original Atrix 4G is an epic example of incompetents of this greedy company.

Now, get yourself a decent phone and forget about Motorola. They don't deserve to spend your money on their products.
[RAZR i General] pashtun:
Yeah, I'm getting tired of waiting now. I'm running the stock 4.1.2 ROM which is unusably slow - I often have to wait about 10 seconds for the home screen to appear or for the phone to respond in certain situations. I don't even know how that is possible on a unit which has a 2Ghz CPU and 1GB of RAM. Do the unofficial ROMs improve this at all?
[RAZR i General] LTgoodevil:
Mine is on 4.1.2 custom rom running faster than friends Note 2 on stock rom. Android roms toched by manufacturers filthy fingers suck and always will!

---------- Post added at 11:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:09 AM ----------

Well your post is 97% more stupid than 97 pages combined, because xt890 4.4.2 rom for Brasil is live on OTA and EU one is in closed beta. The need of carriers to shove their logo into rom slows everything down to crawl!
[RAZR i General] qubbey:
Before they give it to carriers, the retail version should be finished.

And why should they hold it back? Carrier ROMs can come later, nobody cares.
[RAZR i General] kamutka:
How can you explain that those who are running Brazilian rom are saying it's buggy like hell and wish they never migrated to 4.4.2?

How can you explain that what takes for other companies few months has to be matter of + 1 year for Motorola still not being successfully executed in major markets ?

As simple as this. Can't you see that Motorola once again failed to successfully implement software update? If you still belief that your phone will receive official OTA updated this year you must be a moron :)
[RAZR i General] LTgoodevil:
Well I know other manufacturers are not great with updates either, especcially with phones older than one year. Samsung was one of them, I remember days before they have bought Cyanogen, everyone used to cry about not getting updates. Razr M got updates months ago, however Razr i being an market experiment I'm suprised they even trying to push 4.4.2 out. It's probably one dude doing all the coding in the Motorola celar by now.

The point being

They did bring the update, I haven't said it was in great shape and quality! That's different story.
[RAZR i General] xtr3m3:

[RAZR i General] LTgoodevil:
Ughh, my mistake. Deal haven't went through apparently. Sorry for missinformation :o
[RAZR i General] khaledm_92:
Weird. I'm running the stock 4.1.2 rom as well and everyday tasks are executed pretty quickly. The only thing I find slow on this phone is handling documents.

I would like (expect) to get the 4.4 update before I eventually upgrade to another phone. The delays didn't bother me at first but the phone is over 2 years old now so its getting a bit ridiculous. Some might say its good enough that they're giving us the update, but releasing it in a reasonable time is just as important I think.
[RAZR i General] rodrigoauditore:
Sorry, but what other OEM updates a more than 2 years old phone to 4.4.2? It wasn't a lie because there are releases out there, they just missed the deadline the'd set themselves. Some Motorola devices are being updated to Lollipop faster than Nexus devices, so do some research. All companies are greedy I think that's known. Go find a better company in regards to phone updates and the we'll talk. Oh, and the Atrix 4g is a 3 (almost 4) year old phone, so get over it. Sorry to everyone else for going so offtopic.

[RAZR i General] adddaamo:
I think Motorola is checking how much work will take to port android 4.4 to our device. It can be difficult task if they don't have for example new Wi-Fi drivers with low power mode, or ART for x86 isn't ready, or ...

Let's just give them time, for me even two-three months it reasonable time to wait.
[RAZR i General] leonelsr:
I just wish they were more "open" about their plans ;~~

See, I'd decide if I buy a new device now (maybe a Moto X, maybe a Nexus), depending on the roadmaps I could see from Moto and its competitors.
[RAZR i General] :
The problem with being more open is that there's a fairly large amount of Motorola bashers out there who would say and do things I'm not even going to repeat when Motorola announced something, even if it was only a roadmap. Even one time, an update came 3 days later than originally planned (I don't see the problem, it's not like other companies never miss a date) and those bashers were, well, let's say "very vocal" again. Even struck the media who gave 'em attention. Thanks to them Motorola decided at some point to be less open about their plans.

While I would be happy to see Motorola open up again, I can also see why they closed up. People will scream at them whether or not they are open, up to such a degree that it's really bashing instead of criticizing. If I was in Motorola's shoes I wouldn't know what to do. Open or closed, no one will ever be happy
[RAZR i General] purplet:
Sorry mate but here is no risk in saying yes or no. Keep the when is done that's fine but tell those who care so they can still sell the phone and get one that fits their needs of they want kitkat.

I'd there was a compact nexus 5 would consider selling the moto because what they did is as bad as the **** Google putup last year with the nexus 4.then it's two bad company's and one clearly a lot better phone for Less money.
[RAZR i General] antkalaitzakis96:
I guess motorola will announce the devices that will get android 4.4 on it's event tomorrow so many of our questions will be answered!
[RAZR i General] Jamielawther:
I wouldn't think so, they want to announce a new product, not promote their older products. They may speak about the Moto X and that getting KitKat but not older gen. phones like ours.

But now they're owned by Google, who obviously want the best experience so people continue to use and buy Android; ergo their policies will be different

Google just owns Motorola, Motorola is still separate company from Google, and Motorola wants same thing as all others companies - make money, so updating Android version in older phones isn't their priority.

[RAZR i General] kamutka:
One day in 2019 when Google would launch their x10 android OS version we will hear from Motorola ( I mean Lenovo ):

"I know people are excited to get KitKat and probably several that are annoyed with how long it's taken. Yeah I agree it's been a looooooooooong time. Never the less we're still working on it. With any update there can be some unexpected complications. In the interest of user experience were working through the software. As soon as it is ready we'll deploy it."

The way how they treat their customers is just ridiculous. I'd rather prefer not to have been fooled by them and promised software updates with unrealistic timing. Currently Razr I running stock Jelly Bean is very slow and unresponsive. Using latest Chrome on this phone is a pain in the ass. I know I could unlock bootloader and do the rest to load some unofficial ROM but that's not the point! I want this phone to be stock and run official but good OS and not necessarily latest but optimized for this phone and fast because the hardware is still decent. I don't want to spend my time on tweaking and hacking. Just give me a stable, clean and lean OS and rest it peace Motorola! I'm afraid I don't have a patience to wait another months (sorry years) so I'm retiring this phone and by no chance spending my money on Moto products again.
[RAZR i General] LTgoodevil:
Unless you have nexus device you can't really be serious in asking about optimized ROM from manufacturer. Yes Razr i rom is close to vanilla one, but it still had loads of crap. And I think it is more vanilla visually than internally. Which manufacturer provide roms you seek for? If you don't want custom rom, just do factory reset. If you've been running rom for more than a year you'll notice huge difference - trust me. Don't forget to back up content you want to keep, but don't backup settings - this bit including cache and other program data (not content) usually slows down android a lot.
