Hello, a bit of topic but, I flashed the philz_touch_6.57.5 to my xt925 (bootloader unlocked, running fresh France CEE KK OTA), re-rooted and chose restart, but it didn't ask me to disable flash recovery. Any way, after that, when I restart in recovery mode, screen stays black but if I touch it I can feel vibration response[emoji38] [emoji38]. The good thing is the root stood haha! Any advise? I'm I missing something?
[RAZR HD General] ukmotofan:
Is anyone in the UK getting the kitkat ota update for there xt925?????

I keep checking daily but phone says device is up to date.
[RAZR HD General] kokinator02:
I ran some tests yesterday and for the sake of the test I downgraded to (JB CEE-FR) and even to my oem firmware (JB TCE-MX). I can tell you now that I found no significant drop off signal. But when in KK, if you keep the default advanced settings, you will experience a drop, not as large as you have seen in your device but as 5 to 8 points. At least my device did.

The tests I ran consisted in a signal check with Wi-Fi analyzer at same selected locations for each firmware and in KKs case with both default and custom advanced config. Differences with equaled configs where between 1~3 -dB and as I said before, the KKs advanced default config 5~8.

another detail is that I always untick the "avoid bad connections" config. The only thing ikeep is the "keep WiFi always on" option.

I hope you find this useful. Cheers mate![emoji41]

I did alright, using Philz advanced recovery. It's all I expected from Motorola team. It runs very smooth, even better than ICS. The camera has been improved by far as I see no excess pixels on pics not under normal or low light conditions. I'll keep checking though.

Under ART seems to run superb but it's to soon to assure.

Bottom line is: So far so good man.

good to hear man, downloading OTA here after flashing the French JB.......
[RAZR HD General] iceeyes91:
Thank you for the comparison between the jb bootloader and the kk bootloader firmwares. Guess I am going to look into it myself.

Thank you again
[RAZR HD General] JoseBerga:
Latin America's friends, I'm uploading the Brazilian OTA :)

Soon I will post the link..
[RAZR HD General] SalJR:
Wow, tks so much, man !!!

:victory:
[RAZR HD General] hbenz2008:
Guys, towelroot isnt able to root my xt 925 claiming it is not supported. What is the work around? on 4.4.2 now kernel is from July29.

MANY THANKS
[RAZR HD General] niksy+:
Can anyone compare the final 4.4.2 OTA with CM11? Performance, battery life, camera... And whatever else you feel like :) Pretty please!
[RAZR HD General] JoseBerga:
Here is the brazilian OTA.. But I can't install it, I tried from stock recovery and sideload, but nothing works...

If someone can install it please give feedback or tutorial.. lol

Mediafire link: Blur_Version.98.50.26.XT925.Brasil.en.BR.zip
[RAZR HD General] TBueno:
RSDLite

Did you try RSDLite?
[RAZR HD General] SalJR:
I will.... and reply as soon as I have the result/
[RAZR HD General] JoseBerga:
It's an update.zip.. I don't think if it's works with RsdLite..

In recovery log says that fail when updating to new recovery..

maybe [MENTION=813614]Orphee[/MENTION] could help us modifying this OTA for install it from custom recovery like the leaked soak test.. :p

This is 4.1.2. :silly::silly::silly: ?!?!?!?

I had same firmware on phone of my wife.

:cyclops::cyclops::cyclops:
[RAZR HD General] JoseBerga:
No, its the 4.4.2 OTA.. In motorola phones the ota is always download with the actual firmware name..

Look at Kabaldan's Ota, has the same name as the JB Retail Cee Firmware.. :rolleyes: ;)
[RAZR HD General] leandroprez26:
I'll try flash this zip.

Wish me luck!!!

:D:D:D

Edit:

TWRP, CWM, Philz..........

None this recoverys flash this zip...........

Please, someome had the solution?!?!
[RAZR HD General] SalJR:
Ok, I flashed the stock firmware (with stock recovery). Then, when I try to flash the update file, it starts but stops on "Updating new recovery".

:(
[RAZR HD General] JoseBerga:
You need stock recovery, stock firmware without root of somenthing like that..

Yes, I had the same error dude :(
[RAZR HD General] leandroprez26:
For me, same way.

Using stock recovery.

Instalation abort.

Someone can help us?!?!?!
[RAZR HD General] douglasvbarone:
Same... Stock JB ROM, stock recovery. When I select "apply update from external SD card" installation is aborted, displaying a error message about signature.

I wonder if has more than one model or stock ROM for Brazil...
[RAZR HD General] TBueno:
Different versions

I think you have a point. Check out how dowload size differ slightly from one notification to another.
[RAZR HD General] JoseBerga:
There are 2 versions.. But, this ota need to install over last one.. This says on the metadata file inside the zip..

metadata.json:

{"serviceControlEnabled": "false", "releaseNotes": "some notes", "metaVersion": "0", "extraSpace": "0", "size": "1024", "annoy": "...", "forced": "false", "flavour": "SD card package 98.50.26-180.46.117", "wifionly": "false", "version": "Blur_Version.180.46.117.XT925.Brasil.en.BR", "minVersion": "Blur_Version.98.50.26.XT925.Brasil.en.BR"}
[RAZR HD General] douglasvbarone:
This "last one" is the previous soak test? I'm confused...

If yes, then is no final realize for who have an unaltered Razr HD, for example?
[RAZR HD General] JoseBerga:
For "the last one" I mean the latest JB firmware. There are 2 Retail Brazil JB Firmwares,this one "Android 4.1.2 Blur_Version.98.21.6.XT925.Brasil.en.BR" and this other "Android 4.1.2 Blur_Version.98.50.26.XT925.Brasil.en.BR".. The OTA needs the 98.50.26. firmware as base for installation..

I hope you can understand.. My english is not so good :P
[RAZR HD General] SalJR:
Nope. I tried. It didn´t work.

:crying:
[RAZR HD General] JoseBerga:
Yes, I know dude.. I tried too with no luck :(

french kitkat

Hi

I have the french retail JB and I have the kitkat update, but i have the telcel mexico modem because i work with LTE

What can I do?
[RAZR HD General] JoseBerga:
I think Nothing. Just wait for Telcel ota, because JB modems doesn't work on a kit kat firmware..

[RAZR HD General] leandroprez26:
I put the European version Kitkat on the Razr of my wife.

The Brazilian version're hard to place.

I used this link, and inside the zip has the walkthrough.

Good luck to all.

Hmm, if I flash the European rom then I`ll get the update message to kitkat brazilian rom ???

:confused:

Tks,
[RAZR HD General] leandroprez26:
No.

You're in Kitkat europe.

Had to do downgrade for JB retail BR.
[RAZR HD General] mrzuzzo:
Hey guys,

I'm trying to flash the CEE-retail 4.1.2 firmware through RSD Lite on my phone so I can get the OTA update.

Locked bootloader, stock Rogers firmware.

In RSD lite I am getting an error "Failed flashing process. 13/19 flash devtree "devtree_signed" -> Phone returned FAIL

The fastboot screen on the phone is telling me "Failed to hab check for devtree: 0x56, preflash validation failed for devtree"

Anyone know why this is happening?

Also, will I have issues with the EU firmware on my phone? Will LTE still work?
[RAZR HD General] CoinCoin88:
Wow, back from 2 weeks on vacation and guess what, KK is finally here ?!

What about DSchuster sayig they were securing carrier lab now... ?

Anyway, after reading the thread I understand that leaked soak test users (like me) must downgrade to RTFR JB then take the OTA to KK ? Is there still no full zip firmware file to flash through RSD ? this would be so much easier...
[RAZR HD General] navi7512:
Use fastboot to flash

Enviado desde mi RAZR HD usando Tapatalk 2
[RAZR HD General] JoseBerga:
First you need to unlock your bootloader.. Then flash with fastboot..

I don't know about LTE, in Argentina we don't have LTE/4G..

Enviado desde mi RAZR HD mediante Tapatalk
[RAZR HD General] mrzuzzo:
Thanks, but why do I need to unlock bootloader if I'm just installing a factory image? I am following this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2176753

The fastboot method that you speak of, is it when I have to reflash the recovery image to CWM first? Do I need to be rooted for this?
[RAZR HD General] hbenz2008:
No you dont have to have BL unlocked or Root if you just need to be on kitkat, you dont need to be rooted. Just flash the French RTFR rom, and you will get the update immediately. I rolled back to JB as I didn't like the weakness of wifi and signal overall. I will wait to see if things get ironed out.
[RAZR HD General] JoseBerga:
Because the lock bootloader just allow you to install factory firmware of your region (in your case just Canada, because xt926 firmware is not compatible..)

If you want to install another firmware for other region/continet you must have unlocked bootloader..

Yes, that method and no, you don't have to be root.

search razr xt925 toolkit by core720, that would help you to make it easier..:fingers-crossed:
[RAZR HD General] mrzuzzo:
Thanks for the help! I unlocked bootloader and used the toolkit you suggested to reflash to EU firmware.

However now I don't get any data on my phone, do you know why this is?

---------- Post added at 07:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:19 PM ----------

Never mind, setup the AP settings and now data works.

I still cannot get the 4.4.2 update... Installed the CEE Retail firmware and am not being pushed the update to KK. Any reason for that?
[RAZR HD General] navi7512:

I go to Settings > System Updates and I get a "Your device is up to date!" message.

I am definitely running the CEE-Retail.en.EU firmware.
[RAZR HD General] hbenz2008:

[RAZR HD General] mrzuzzo:
Do you know where to get it?

I tried both the EU retail and french Vodafone firmware from droid-developers with no result.

Thanks!

[RAZR HD General] mrzuzzo:
Yes, that is the version that I am using, but it is not offering an update.

System version 98.21.22003.XT925.CEE-Retail.en.EU is what I get in the system information.
[RAZR HD General] hbenz2008:
Weird man, did you modify the xml at all, or you run it as is?

see the thing you say is RETAIL.en it should be RTFR
[RAZR HD General] mrzuzzo:
Running as is, didn't touch the XML, used the RAZR HD Toolkit to flash.
[RAZR HD General] hbenz2008:
HERE is my xml, compare if you can. I didnt use the kit however RSD lite 6.1.5 takes about maybe 3-5 min to flash it up

Need help now... I've tried to downgrade by RSD to 4.2.1 RTFR but it failed at tz_signed.

Tried to fastboot flasg files one by one, but some fail (partition, which I believe is unnecessary.... but system as well). Something about file size not matching block size. What should I do ? I'm still in fastboot right now, a bit scared to reboot because it's gonna be ugly...

How did you downgrade from soak KK to JB, to take the newest OTA ?
[RAZR HD General] hbenz2008:
[MENTION=273699]coincoin[/MENTION]

delete two lines:

One includes TZ

other includes GPT

[MENTION=2898306]Mr Z[/MENTION]uzzo

USE THE ONE I posted.Make sure you have the right ROM
[RAZR HD General] CoinCoin88:
Blazing fast reply, thanks.

Oddly enough, I was trying to flash files one by one with fastboot (skipping tz and partition) but it was failing for some reason... But in RSD it seems to be going fine after removing getvar, partition and tz. Currently at system, and no error so far

Go figure...

Thanks for the tips!

edit: As for other users here, even after downgrading to 4.1.2 RTFR it says I'm up to date. Guess the quota for this first global soak is reached. I'll use the update zip file provided here a couple pages ago :)
[RAZR HD General] mrzuzzo:
Just tried it... same thing. No idea what I could be doing wrong here.

---------- Post added at 09:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:30 PM ----------

That makes sense. Can you tell me which zip file you are using is the latest?
[RAZR HD General] hbenz2008:
There is an OTA of the update [MENTION=243864]xda[/MENTION]. However, check all your steps, and give it another go. Could be their server at this time, connection... I suggest double check your rtfr rom

---------- Post added at 04:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:41 PM ----------

Also Use rsd lite 615
[RAZR HD General] CoinCoin88:
Although "global", I believe (from David Schuster G+ comments) that this OTA is still a soak test phase (that could be considered as final if the rollout goes as expected). That's why they're not pushing the file to everyone, but to a limited set of random users... And then they close the flow for a while. Or it could just be some sort of load balance. Anyway, I think the file posted earlier by [MENTION=2218140]kabaldan[/MENTION] (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=55225630&postcount=225) is the correct one.

Applying now from RTFR (exact zip: 1_9.8.2Q-8-XT925_VQU-22_USERSIGNED_S7_UCAVANQU02NA02F.0R_LSAVNQJBRTFR_P007_A004_CFC.xml.zip)

Stuck at "-- Install /sdcard ..." for now. I'll leave it for 5 minutes or so
[RAZR HD General] hbenz2008:
Hopefully they work it as Wi-Fi, signal suck
[RAZR HD General] CoinCoin88:
Applying update from sdcard remained stuck... I'm trying to sideload it now. This KK is a real pain!

edit: sideload stuck at 96%.... I'm really starting to lose patience!
[RAZR HD General] hbenz2008:
Won't be too long before it s officially out. Meanwhile good luck man. You will get it done . using fastboot? Recovery or what?
[RAZR HD General] CoinCoin88:
It's an update.zip file so only flashable through sideload or from external storage I guess...
[RAZR HD General] kokinator02:
As far as I know, the last KK CEE-FR OTA update is final.
[RAZR HD General] mrzuzzo:
Do you know what is the best method to do this?
[RAZR HD General] CoinCoin88:
Usually, you put the .zip on sdcard (external storage), boot to recovery, apply update from external storage, and voila. But here it seems to be messy for some reason...
[RAZR HD General] mrzuzzo:
Are you using CWM to do this?

Let me know what works for you, I've been trying for a while to get the KK update with no success.
[RAZR HD General] CoinCoin88:
nope, no CWM. OTA can only be applied from a fully stock phone.

RSD to rtfr4.1.2 then take the OTA (or sideload a zip containing the update from recovery, or put the update on external storage and flash from it from recovery).

However for some reason the zip files provided here does not work. On my device it eaither freezes at the header "Installing /sdcard..." (flash from external storage) or at 96% of the sideload.

So I'm back on 4.1.2, still have the old (buggy) soak test KK but I'm probably gonna wait for the final release to reach me through normal OTA... A real pain in the ass I must say. Still don't get why the update.zip does not work here.
[RAZR HD General] mrzuzzo:
Tried it here as well.

Same thing, stock recovery mode, sideload using adb, stuck at 96%.
[RAZR HD General] CoinCoin88:
You don't have a XT925 then ? VZW stands for Verizon Wireless, which I believe is XT926...
[RAZR HD General] hbenz2008:
I have definitely an xt 925,xml may have not been the right one.
[RAZR HD General] CoinCoin88:
Do *not* use this: if you look closely the KK version inside is a "CWM flashable", presumably the one provided from early soak test (buggy). The time stamp goes back to 16 May, which is definitely earlier than the (supposedly) final release occurring atm.

---------- Post added at 12:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:48 AM ----------

Well, impossible to flash the OTA provided by kabaldan.

I'm gonna have to stay on 4.1.2 for a couple days, till the OTA gets pushed to me. Have to restore everything now, only to reflash afterwards... :/
[RAZR HD General] mrzuzzo:
What makes you think that it's a couple of days? Could be weeks or months before the KK OTA is pushed..
[RAZR HD General] CoinCoin88:
Random people getting the OTA for retail fw means it's the final release (or final soak prior to global rollout, except for major yet-to-be-found bug). So I'd say that a few days (1, 2 weeks?) should be enough to see a global rollout. But I can be mistaken...
[RAZR HD General] mrzuzzo:
This is Motorola we're talking about here... KitKat was released a year ago and we still don't have it. So it means nothing.

edit: I'd appreciate if someone can upload a good working update.zip to 4.4.2
[RAZR HD General] Orphee:
For those who wants to flash RTFR OTA with [MENTION=2218140]kabaldan[/MENTION]'s OTA place the file "updater-script" (unzip it) in attachement in :

META-INF\com\google\android (inside OTA ZIP file, overwrite it)

and flash OTA with CWM

WARNING : YOU MUST HAVE A

CLEAN RTFR

NOT ROOTED ROM TO FLASH THIS FILE

I highly suggest you to

enable/activate

ALL stuffs like GPS, BLUETOOTH, WIFI, NFC in your 4.1.2 RTFR ROM before flash the file from OTA

I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE DONE TO YOU OR YOUR PHONE.

Edit : It is of course only for those with unlocked bootloader.

Edit 2 : You must flash OTA with OLD bootloader CWM, and after OTA successfully flashed, then flash new bootloader CWM.
[RAZR HD General] CoinCoin88:
Just when TB was finally nearly finished with restoring my text messages x) Thanks, will give it a try now!
[RAZR HD General] Raphyo:
I'm always getting an installation aborted in CWM.

What I just did :

1. Flashed a clean RTFR.

2. Flashed a CWM recovery (without rooting).

3.DL kabaldan ota

4.unzipd it

5.replaced the updater file.

6. re-zip it.

7. copied the new zip file on the phone.

8.tryed to flash with CWM. => installation aborted.

Is something wrong with that procedure ?

By advance thank you.
[RAZR HD General] Orphee:
Yes, I never said to unzip OTA.

Edit : I should add you must have old bootloader CWM to flash the OTA, and after flash new bootloader CWM.
[RAZR HD General] Raphyo:

It seems that I can't access to the file, like it is locked or sometthing.
