I took this opportunity to disable Xposed and switch from Dalvik to ART... So it might as well be this messing around. But from what I read previously ART should run better than Dalvik, so it's not really clear what's causing this. But it's really a pain in the ass. I'll probably reset to default tonight and start my MMS restauration with TB before going to bed... It usually takes a long, long, very long time...
[RAZR HD General] hbenz2008:
keep in mind I put x-posed back, and of course I am runnning on Davlik.

So far ok
[RAZR HD General] CWGSM3VO:
I usually run ART and obviously, not running stock ROM. I do have a nandroid of my Rogers 4.4.2 ROM, I'm just avoiding the entire flash and check and re-flash business.

Just wondering if KDA20.127 is isolated to CEE (for whatever reason) or it's some kind of fix that will be pushed out everywhere at some point. Don't get me wrong, my phone is running fine and all, but like everyone else, latest-greatest-bigger-better-stronger always lures me in :)
[RAZR HD General] hbenz2008:
It's hard to know, so far only heard of this CEE, but since it has Wi-Fi, Sim and other tweaks it will most likely be a global push . clearly stated Google patch too
[RAZR HD General] CWGSM3VO:
Interestingly enough, when I posted about KDA20.127 on David Schuster's G+ page for the Razr HD KitKat update the post was taken down. Not my post, the entire thread :P I know [MENTION=5430903]djvita[/MENTION] was posting on there too.

Anyone got a clue on what's going on with http://sbf.droid-developers.org? I don't know for how long it's been down so far, but it's more than a few days :/ [MENTION=3158604]Pzyduck[/MENTION] [MENTION=2228410]Skrilax_CZ[/MENTION] Any info on this, Firmware Team? :(

Been wanting to get to KKBL lately, but no luck... If anyone has another link for the Rogers/Fido 4.1.2 sbf, please post it up :) (mine's a Canadian xt925, so I thought I'd stick with the correct baseband for it, although it doesn't matter much, as we don't have LTE around here)
[RAZR HD General] CWGSM3VO:
I can post up either a modified SBF (excludes TZ+Partition) or the original. Lemme which one you want and I'll upload it to filedropper for you. PM me.

I'm argentinian, i rsd brazilian stock jb rom (KDA20.117 compilation), and then update via OTA to kk. No problem at all, my bootloader still unlocked. The phone works flawlessly. Will i have a problem if i decide to flash a custom recovery/rom on a near feature? The only thing i miss is some cm features but i've notice that camera works better with stock, it takes better pictures and also my battery life is better than cm 11 jbbl snapshots (i think its beacause the radio problems and signals with cm).
[RAZR HD General] hbenz2008:
do as you wish man, all shall be well
[RAZR HD General] CWGSM3VO:
I've been sitting on Rogers 4.4.2 stock (rooted/recovery) for a day now to see if they push another update (the mythical .127) and I've noticed battery life is about on-par with CM KKBL builds. Camera probably seems better because of HDR, which is also in CM11 but not enabled by default (can't remember if it is in stock and I'm too lazy to go the 6' to grab my phone and find out).

Based on your description, you should have no problems switching to CM (or any other ROM) but I suggest taking a nandroid of your stock 4.4.2 in case you feel like switching back without all the RSDlite hassle.
[RAZR HD General] JoseBerga:
fwteam.grupoandroid.com is from [MENTION=3158604]Pzyduck[/MENTION] "repo" for firmwares.. and there is another new page motofirmware.com with all the firmwares..

I am argentinian, I upgraded to kitkat from brazilian retail too and now i'm on cm12 with no problems.. Any questions PM me dude.. :good:
[RAZR HD General] CWGSM3VO:
Unfortunately, neither page has the 4.1.2 Rogers JB SBF :(

I couldn't spot any VZW either.

Both seem more CEE/South American centric to me but I did skim through them all.
[RAZR HD General] JoseBerga:
Yes you're right, I didn't notice this because always use latin american firmwares..

I found another firmware host but seems like you had to be registered to download..Asanfile.com
[RAZR HD General] mmm.waffles:
Thanks a bunch for the help. I'll try it when I have a couple days to spare in case I brick it!
[RAZR HD General] CoinCoin88:
People who took the latest CEE OTA (something .127), have you noticed any odd behaviour lately ? Apps are unstable, and stop responding very often. Even system apps like Google Maps, messaging... And yesterday I tried a reset to default, the phone would reboot then it gets stuck flashing a very short image of the recovery menu with progress bar: Are you sure you want to reset? Yes -> Black screen -> image of android / progress bar (0.1s) -> black screen (10s or so) -> image of android / progress bar (0.1s) -> black screen (infinite loop).

I managed to reboot to system, it did not reset anything. And I'm unable to get to recovery. Either my twrp is outdated for the new OTA, which is unlikely, or there's something very strange...

Gonna adb/fastboot now and see what I can do

edit: adb reboot recovery does the trick. I'll try factory reset from there later tonight, since I'll launch a restore afterwards and it's gonna take the night to restore all my SMSs...
[RAZR HD General] hbenz2008:
you must have a load of sms man, no strange behvior here that i can tell.
[RAZR HD General] xXVergiliusXx:
oh dude thank you so much! Now i have KitKat 4.4.2 up and running with no problems :D

Now, i want to root the phone to install the Xposed Framework (to have inmersive kit kat), is there an specific method to root it?
[RAZR HD General] CoinCoin88:
Yep, 1 thread > 10k, 1 around 5k, 2-3 around 1k, the remaining between 1 and 500. I don't like cleaning them (although I know they slow down the device quite a bit :))

---------- Post added at 03:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:25 PM ----------

If you're not bootloader unlocked, you have to do that first (from moto website). It voids you warranty by the way (but for a 2 year-old phone, who cares). After that you just flash a custom recovery, then a flashable superSU zip.
[RAZR HD General] CoinCoin88:
My issue with factory reset was working was fixed at last... Not sure how: I retried a factory reset from the OS, it rebooted to a white screen (no progress bar or anything). After 1-2 min I was bored and forced a reboot. It seemed it was actually doing a reset because some settings actually got reset (haptive feedback, dashboard layout) but others were note (still my custom background, still had my accounts synced). I tried to adb reboot recovery but my computer would no longer see the phone. I tried a boot to recovery by holding power+vol up to reach bootloader, but this time yet another odd behaviour occured: fixed "M" logo, bootloader select Recovery, flashing M logo, then.... black screen, but haptive feedback (PhilZ recovery). So I figured the backlight would not lit but the phone was actually in recovery mode ?!?

I ended up rebooting, and gave it a last try to factory reset from the OS: this time it rebooted to the Android logo and progress bar, then booted normally to a fresh install. Who knows...

But I still have something fishy with recovery: if I adb reboot recovery, the recovery menu is as usual. if I reach it through power+vol up, there's no backlight.
[RAZR HD General] CWGSM3VO:
I have this problem with recovery every so often, even with my frankenstein 4.4.2 (and now proper 4.4.2) where the recovery display would be black. The fix (for me) is a few pages back, using gesture support in PhilZ. There was a fix regarding TWRP for this a while back too, I mentioned it in the PhilZ thread.

Sorry, a bit early in the morning for me, otherwise I'd provide you links.
[RAZR HD General] hbenz2008:
twrp has a setting for screen timeouts, that needs to be disabled. However I have no prob with it on or off. Sometimes , reflashing recovery the right way does the job.
[RAZR HD General] CoinCoin88:
Wow that was friggin fast. After reading David Schuster's G+ I figured my (french) xt925 wouldn't see its update before at least the end of summer... yet my phone is really in need of a full reflash, my battery hardly lives through the day now.

Hopefully the complete firmware (and not OTA) will soon be released, I really don't want to have to go back to full stock (currently with TWRP and rooted).
[RAZR HD General] RockyRock:
Works great!!! Thanks Buddy :)
[RAZR HD General] Tuckycv:
well, i'm on 4.4.2 now, a little dissapointed to see that the update is mostly underhood, I mean the phone feels quicker and it didn't heat up as much using bluetooth as it used to qith JB, but I was expecting a little more on the UI side. So for so good. I would've wanted more camera settings but seems fine so far.

[RAZR HD General] idless:
For those curious. I do think it is a bit snappier than JB. It is not magic transformation into a new modern superphone but a very nice and clear improvement over the older roms. I good job on Google and Motorola's part I think.

New I am anxious to know how to root this one?
[RAZR HD General] six37:
Very fast and pleasant experience opposite to 4.1.2! In my case there are no bugs so far.. After day and a half ...
[RAZR HD General] Tuckycv:
Yea, I feel it snapier than 4.1.2 it is not another phone, it just feels smoother.
[RAZR HD General] Orphee:
If you are unlocked and followed my steps, just flash latest SuperSU flashable zip from chainfire with the special recovery installed at the end on my steps.
[RAZR HD General] RockyRock:
Done testing for almost one day now.

I am impressed. Everything works like a charm for me.

Wifi, 3G.

Quick tested Bluetooth and GPS , works good.

Battery life is 16h heavy usage, still got 55% left.

26% Display. 15% Wlan, 14% Calls, 13%OS, 9% Stanby, and so on...
[RAZR HD General] CoinCoin88:
I'm curious, after using your guide and ending up (hopefully) on 4.4.2, is is still possible to flash a custom recovery like TWRP ?

For now I'm unlocked/rooted, TWRP, Retail-CEE rom. My understanding of your post is I should reflash to RTFR 4.1.2, flash this recovery provided with the OTA, then flash the OTA zip file from this stock-updated recovery (and finally sideload superSU but this is mere detail).
[RAZR HD General] Orphee:
Currently, there is only the custom recovery made by [MENTION=4112553]dhacker29[/MENTION] (the final step of my guide) working on motorola 4.4 bootloader. So no, TWRP & Philz Touch won't work on latest Motorola 4.4 rom until new kernel is used for TWRP & Philz Touch.

Custom Dhacker29's recovery is enough to flash SuperSU and have root (Xposed etc...)

If I said something wrong, please correct me.

---------- Post added at 11:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:12 AM ----------

My feelings about this 4.4 Motorola ROM compared to CM11 :

I "feel" CM11 smoother than Motorola ROM...

There some options in CM11 missing in motorola ROM...

- No option to customize settings menu in the notification bar (right top button in notification bar), or I didn't find it... I would like to add enable/disable autorotate...

- Dialpad is buggy when in call on motorola official car dock...

- No way to specify the rotations options like in CM11 (0, 90, 180, 270)

Lots of Google bloatware in motorola ROM...

- Chrome (yes it is the default nav... I would prefer default nav from CM, and I install Firefox by the way)

- Drive

- Google Cloud print

- Google play films

- Google play kiosque

- Google play books

- Google play music

- Google+

- Hangouts

- Google play games

- Google traduction

(All frozen by the way)

Theses applications are available on the playstore, no need to have it in the ROM...

Change the default home launcher to something lighter like Nova launcher is mandatory... The default launcher is still laggy...

But still, the 4.4 is smoother and better than official 4.1.2.
[RAZR HD General] madmonkey57:
Thanks Orphee.
[RAZR HD General] idless:
Thanks again! It worked perfectly. The modified OTA file and Orphee's guide have made installing moto's 4.4 build a breeze.

One thing to note is that write-rights to SD-ext seems to be gone with the 4.4. It is not hard to mitigate though. What I have done is install Xposed (made possible with root) and then 'HandleExternalStorage-module'. 'HandleExternalStorage' re-enable writing to external SD-card. This is useful if for example Titanium Backup complains that "'there is insufficient space to backup" or similar errors which really is caused by the lack of writing rights to the external SD-card.

Btw: My view on moto's 4.4. probarly is quite similar to Orphees. I does not take long before I also miss many of the advanced features found in custom ROMS. Customization is extremely limited on moto's 4.4. On the other hand I think some action seems to be snappier. I might be imagining things but it seems to me that e.g. chrome is quicker and better at handling multiple panes quickly. I think the linux 3.4 base have some low level optimizations affect specific actions. Like Orphee I also feel the UI is actually a little less fluid (than CM 11) though). Not much but a little.

My long term dream is custom ROMS using moto's libraries for bug-free ROMS with far more customization options. For now I am happy to play with moto 4.4. + exposed

EDIT: Maybe hold on a bit with xposed. I am experiencing some troubles. I think they may be caused by xposed or either greenify or HandleExternalStorage-module.
[RAZR HD General] Orphee:
I'm not experiencing anything bad with xposed, what kind of troubles do you have ?
[RAZR HD General] Qix84:
Hi, i tried to put the JB radio in the rom, but it not work. Any can upload a flasheable zip with the kitkat radio please???
[RAZR HD General] CoinCoin88:
I fear the increased overall reactivity is mainly caused by a full reflash and therefore a "clean brand new system". Only time will tell, but so far most of my reflash were because my system was getting terribly slow. I was very happy at the beginning and then a couple weeks/months after it was back to "horribly slow"...

Let's hope KK is "really" a bit more reactive
[RAZR HD General] niksy+:
What would be the right way? I just flashed 4.1.2, OTA updated to 4.4.2, fastbooted via adb and then flashed the latest PhilZ recovery built by Orphee and my screen went blank when I entered it :rolleyes: (Yes, I turned off the phone after flashing the recovery and entered it straight afterwards, no system boots in between).

Just to check, that gesture sequence is "left - left - right - right"? And then what? Because this just didn't work for me :rolleyes: Does "a left gesture" equal "swiping from right to left"? :confused: :D
[RAZR HD General] hbenz2008:
TWRP 2.7 went black on me once when flashed via flashify as soon as I reflashed with fastboot, it was all good
[RAZR HD General] niksy+:
Have no idea what it's about, but both Orphee's and hachamacha's PhilZ Touch 6.58.7 builds boot up with black screens. Just flashed CWM 6.0.4.9 and it works from the first start, hopefully it will keep on working.

So, this is it :) Time to utilise the KKBL for some f2fs + CM12 love.
[RAZR HD General] lcc014:
Do you know where to get the RTRF 4.1.2 stock firmware ? There is no link to it in this thread.

[RAZR HD General] kokinator02:
Since 6.57 there's a bug where the UI fails to display but you can feel the recovery working because of vibration every time you touch the (blank) screen. I don't really know if 6.58 has addressed the issue but you can use 6.48.4 for KK BL. Stable and smooth.
[RAZR HD General] douglasvbarone:
I have the same problem with recovery. Sometimes it shows up, sometimes not. Isn't a problem with the recovery image, I guess, because it happens with all recoveries I tried: Philz (various versions), dhacker's CWM, CM CWM, dhacker's TWRP.

All of them have the same problem. The recovery works, but don't turn on the display (not just backlight, our devices are OLED, there is no a backlight)
[RAZR HD General] CWGSM3VO:
Yes and then I do vol down or up, screen comes on.

EDIT: Re-read this again. Yes, a "left gesture" is swiping right-to-left and vice versa for "right gesture". I always get fooled from reading the forums that it's just that sequence and the screen comes on and I end up doing it several times before remembering volume up (or down) before the screen comes on. Fortunately, since upgrading to official KKBL it seems that's slowly going away or at least, becoming less common.

EDIT: Happened to me this morning and I was wrong from above; I did left-to-right twice then right-to-left twice then vol down. You can feel it vibrate when you do it (PhilZ)

Hey Archi, depending on which phone you have you might try this thread.

Update to 4.4.2 XT-926

If you're the proud owner of an XT-925 flash the file from This Post.

This will give you a working version of Stockkitkat. Use normal RSD-Lite if you are not sure what you are doing, it will full wipe your phone and WILL most likely also DELETE your COMPLETE INTERNAL STORAGE.

The Keep Date Method, mentioned in the Thread above Resulted in a Bootloop in my case, so i had to flash a custom recovery and so on.

Ok dude, whatever you are trying to do, probably you just should read a little more about the themes you are trying to engage in.

With Normal RSD i meant RSD-Lite version "whatever you have on your Computer should be working".

I meant that you should not be using: House of Moto or this other RSD-Clone which are cool and pretty good, but still some functionality might be to "dangerous" for people who don't know what they are doing.

I mean if my bootloader would not have been unlocked i would have bricked my phone, by falsely using the RSD-Flasher.
