Bump for the fastboot UK firmware
[Moto G General] LysergicSommelier:
With Kitkat my Uk Moto G drains really faster than 4.3, specially in standby, i can see the battery % go down so fast, isn't it?

The only push service that i have is Whatsapp, the email account is set to 10 min auto sync, all the google account sync services are disabled.

It should be 14.71.8.falcon_umts.Retail.en.GB (Jelly Bean 4.3, remember). It was the same as mine before KK.
[Moto G General] tsimitsangaz:
restored tesco 4.3 without any problems copied to sd root folder the Blur_Version.14.71.8.falcon_umts.TescoSL.en.GB rebooted and nothing happened also ota update says that I have the latest version. Any help? I have unlocked bootloader and untouched recovery and no root. Thanks

Is it this what you're searching? There you can find every firmware of the Moto G on 4.3. Can't post links yet, so just copy paste it into you adressbar.
[Moto G General] jlmcr87:
One question, I ordered a moto g from amazon.de, now i want to change the firmware from DE to UK. So can I apply manually the UK OTA to change this? Thanks
[Moto G General] denzel09:
No. You must flash completely the stock firmware. OTA uk goes only on uk firmware and so on. But if you are spanish you should use a en.EU firmware. This last is right firmware for Spanish, Italy and Belgium. But you can choose to flash any firmware.
[Moto G General] jlmcr87:
So to do this i have to unlock bootloader? Or can I flash a recovery without unlocking bootloader?
[Moto G General] miklosbard:
You have to put UK 4.3 first, there is a guide called restore stock firmware. Also there is no difference in UK and DE firmware so now that both got the OTA there is no reason to switch in my opinion.

Sent from my phone
[Moto G General] denzel09:
No.

Recovery? :confused:
[Moto G General] jlmcr87:
Ok thanks, the phone is coming this week. I don´t know what to do with the bootloader....the phone is for my girlfriend....and i don´t want to lose warranty.
[Moto G General] miklosbard:
You can change to other stock firmware without unlocking anything, but there is no reason to do that. All versions got the update already, and I see no difference in them.

[Moto G General] neo.bahamut.zero:
I've just received a notification for another KitKat update: 175.44.1.en.DE. Anyone know what's changed from 174?
[Moto G General] Floechen95:
I also recived an further update....
[Moto G General] checo79:
mee to, but changelog is the same 1.9 mb probably a bugfix?
[Moto G General] stibium:
Is the bug fixed that the notification led doesnt flash after a missed call?
[Moto G General] denzel09:
It s not a bug
[Moto G General] stibium:
Can you explain that? Normally the led is flashing when you missed a call.

Edit:

Ok. I just read an old post from you.

So its Motorolas decision and not a bug. Thats weird. The led is flashing if there are unread emails or text messages and it is flashing when the phone is ringing on an incoming call. When you dont receive the call and the screen turns off the led stops flashing... I hope Motorola will change mind.

Hi guys, I applied update from .zip file posted here and succesfully updated. Now I recieved message, I have new update, is it the same or should I install it?

I have same system version and I received the same update notification (1,9 Mb) but when I go in settings->info->update it's blocked saying that i'll receive a notification when the download will be finished but it doesn't download anything.

Is it because I have a custom recovery? (CWM 6.0.4.6)

[Moto G General] Ris84:
I have the same problem with OTA update, but before couple of days i put manually kit-kat update for German device (i didnt sure if my device is German Moto G, i bought it from amazon.de). I just put Kitkat file on my root folder, then i went to check for updates and then phone automatically installed Kitkat (no-rooting or something like that) and after that my phone offer me a update to kit-kat even i have a kit-kat, but i think is because i place it manually. Now it said that update is downloading and i will be notified, update is downloading more than 5 hours and still nothing.

Do anyone know why this is a problem???

Sorry for my English!

​
[Moto G General] 2hipso:
turn wifi off and then back on
[Moto G General] Ris84:
Tnx for reply, i do this, also did restart and still the same. Maybe the problem Is with their servers.
[Moto G General] bozzykid:
It's a 2mb download so I doubt it. It sounds like a bug in the update process.
[Moto G General] dwarf77:
I also had the weird update download problem yesterday. This morning it worked, but I couldn't install the update. Can't remember the error message. But then my XT1032 (bootloader unlocked, rooted stock 4.4, CWM) started a reboot loop. It always booted up completely, and then rebooted right after entering the SIM and screen pin. I resolved this issue by booting into CWM and formating the cache.

When I try to manually install the update file in CWM (had copied it from cache to SD-card before), the installation is aborted with a message like "update is for falcon.umts.DE. This is a XT1034."

But I do have a XT1032 from amazon.de with a manually installed KitKat .en.DE OTA file. So where was my phone version messed up? Any ideas?
[Moto G General] nonplusultra:
So i just woke up ...and there was an update that just installed.

It seems like there is a new gallery app.

[Moto G General] vlad1999:
Weird.I woke up this morning and it said ,do you want to apply update. After 24 hrs since the update showed up it finnaly installes.
[Moto G General] vlad1999:
Here's a screenshot
[Moto G General] Paincake:
Exactly the same for me. Wiping cache helped to get out of reboot loop. Could't find a solution to update yet..

I'm also having high battery drain (since the update message appeared) No new apps installed or changes in system.. Maybe just a coincidence but atm i would say it's the update service that produces thousands oft wakelocks. (Wakelock detector statistik gone because i plugged in charger 10 min ago...)

Waiting for some smarter brains to find a solution:)
[Moto G General] Benxter:
found this on another thread:
[Moto G General] chichino84:
doesn't work for me: when in CWM I try to flash stock recovery but say Installation aborted.

stock recovery zip file putted into sdcard/0.

I also disableb Xposed framework too but it doesn't work...

what could be the problem?
[Moto G General] dwarf77:
Thanks a lot, this method worked for me! :good:

I had the same problem. Extract the stock-recovery.zip and flash it via fastboot (like you flash CWM).
[Moto G General] chichino84:
it doesn't work anyway: stock recovery start installing the update but then it comes out "Error":(
[Moto G General] dwarf77:
Are you getting the error on installing stock recovery or the kitkat update?
[Moto G General] chichino84:
the error appears while installing the update.

I think stock recovery is well installed because updating process starts normally but, after few seconds, appears the dead droid with red triangle and error upon it.

Maybe i could try flashing another stock recovery? But where could I find it?

Not so sure that stock recovery works well because, when I restart in bootloader and select recovery, it just appear "No command" and nothing more
[Moto G General] dwarf77:
Try flashing CWN and format cache in CWM. Then reflash stock recovery, boot phone normally and check for software updates.
[Moto G General] chichino84:
nothing, same error! I really don't know what's happening...where can I find another file with stock recovery .img file to download?
[Moto G General] fixxxer667:
There's other users facing the same problem. (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2600914&page=10)

Some german Moto Gs (16gb) were released with 4.3 retail and only got yesterday's update.

I'm pretty sure that the stock recovery floating around here is the 4.4.2 one from the first kitkat update, so this could be the reason we're getting errors.. (ie. we're flashing 4.4.2 recovery from the first ota on devices with 4.3 en.DE).

I have faux123 kernel installed so I think that is the problem. Does anybody have installation zip for original kernel or original boot.img?
[Moto G General] chichino84:
I have done a factory reset too but it doesn't solve anything
[Moto G General] schurl85:
Flashed from faux back to original kernel, then installed the update. That did the trick

So for everyone original kernel and recovery is required to update!
[Moto G General] Bec de Xorbin:
Could you please upload the original kernel or at least boot.img? Thanks!

This didn't do the trick because I think boot.img is not from German version...
[Moto G General] Bec de Xorbin:
Whoa... It needed some black magic patching stuff but I was able to reconstruct boot.img from German 174.44.9. Here's patchable zip. Update worked fine after patching that.
[Moto G General] chichino84:
thank you for your work but how should I use this .zip file?

Here's the kernel from German 175.44.9 KitKat for the future updating needs.

I use a "German" Moto G from Motorola (not Google Play Version) without a SIM (i.e. no carrier) and I received the OTA 4.4.2 update this morning.
[Moto G General] H377:
Hey Guys,

Does anybody know if I flash the 4.4.2 US FW on a DUAL SIM variant will I be able to go back to 4.3? I'm asking this becasue of the differnet bootloader....

Thanks!
[Moto G General] 2hipso:
I think you can flash to anything, nope? That's the point of flashing, or? I have always been stock so I sould be wrong

Sent from my XT1032
[Moto G General] H377:
It depends on the device. For example HTC never allowed to downgrade. So if you received a new update with a new bootloader than you couldn't go back... I don't know what the situation with Motorola.... Don't want to risk... :)
[Moto G General] denzel09:
But if you flash the entire stock rom you will flash also right bl, i mean if you are on 4.4 and so flash the stock 4.3 to update then to 4.4 this will cause some problems?

Take in mind that when you will flash the stock 4.3 you will flash also the 4.3 bl. Or this procedure of downgrade will cause any stuck, block or damage?
[Moto G General] H377:
It can happen that you cannot flash an older bootloader over a new one. In this case it can happen the 4.3 BL cannot be flashed over the 4.4.2. Maybe.... But I hope that's not the case. :)
[Moto G General] msuk:
how to flash

All,

How can I flash the tesco update onto my Moto G? I already have 4.4.2 install but would like to do a fresh install.

Just do a factory reset, same result.

You can also download the firmware you want to install on your Moto and flash it through fastboot shell.

Thanks !
[Moto G General] Supersonic335:
nobody knows:D Motorola stated this yesterday

Android™ 4.4.4, KitKat® Begins Rolling Out - We’ve begun rolling out Android™ 4.4.4, KitKat® to our phones! This latest update includes all of the goodies of 4.4.3—such a new dialer, the ability to pause during video recording, and enhanced camera image quality—and includes enhanced security for OpenSSL. We just started rolling out in Brazil and India for Moto G; in Brazil, France, Canada, and Asia Pacific for Moto E; in the U.S. for DROID Ultra. We are always working to deploy the latest software as fast as possible and expect the update to come to many more phones soon. Check out the software updates page to see if your phone has been upgraded yet.

I hope that we will get it next week too:highfive:

If you factory reset, boot up the phone, don't touch the motorola privacy thing yet, and don't login to your Google account. Go to Security, disable verify and enable unknown sources. Now go and disable motorola privacy. You can now login to Google, hopefully no more parsing error.

Guys, I think the SFR Moto Gs have a carrier based ROM. This would explain why there's only the one confirmation of the 4.4.2 ROM in the wild, and why the build in the SFR screenshots appears to have a different build number to that specified by Motorola on the update page.
