I installed the OTA and the one modification I had to do was to replace the TWRP recovery with the stock one. After the update, I was then able to reinstall it.

Tl;dr: no, you don't have to unroot.

you're the ONLY person i've seen yet to mention the AWS xt1034 version (which is exactly what i need). How did you get this update? Did you simply download it OTA then zip it up and upload it online for everyone to use? Also, my Moto G is rooted with Philz CWM, do you think i can simply flash this zip for it to update ?

The 4.4.2 update plagued the XT1033.... so unless there is a good reason to upgrade, 4.4.3 should be a no go for me!!!

As other people have noticed, I too see some improvement on battery life after 4.4.3. I may have identified a possible reason: prior to 4.4.3 I noticed that the CPU never stepped down below 998MHz at idle. After 4.4.3 update the CPU now idles at 300MHz.

Can't say for sure as I'm not keen to downgrade to verify but it seems reasonable.

Why not wait for someone to catch the OTA update and post it, so you can flash after that on your favorite Custom Recovery that you are already using?

Hey guys, how are you?

I just updated my Moto G to 4.4.3 and I got a question:

When I open a picture or video in the Gallery app, it's icon does not appear in the "back" button:

I did a factory reset just after updating it, does anybody knows if it is related? Anyone there with 4.4.3 that could help?

It is completely normal that the icon disappears, it seems that in the 4.4.3 the Google Team removed it!

Well just curious :confused:

If my falcon came with 4.3, can I directly update to 4.4.3 update if I hadn't updated to 4.4.2 meanwhile? Will it pose any problems if I directly update a 4.3 phone to 4.4.3 OTA???

Another question is how long do the OTA updates are available at the servers? Say, if 4.4.3 is the last update from Moto for falcon and I don't plan to update now but after 1 year if I decide to update my phon OTA, will the update still be available then? Does Moto officially release their stock firmwares like Google does for the Nexus devices?

Thanks in advance for your replies guys.... ;)
[Moto G General] Piyush Rawal:
You'll need full factory image of 4.4.3 firmware to update directly to 4.4.3. If you flash 4.4.3 OTA over 4.3 it will simply not install.
[Moto G General] remo0073:
I think OTA update will be in one step directly to the last available Android version

Remember to make factory reset after the update

as simple as

[Moto G General] KuGeL94:
Maybe 4.4.4 in summer until Android L is released for the Moto G.

book.apk is the Play Books app

BTW which OTA are you applying?

I think that only OTA available is for falcon_umts.Retail.en.US, not for falcon_umts.AWSRetail.en.US

So I think you have to wait the OTA for your own firmware.

Maybe you will have directly Android 4.4.4 because 4.4.3 has been stopped
[Moto G General] alireza_simkesh:
I do have play books installed but still there is no book.apk in /system. can you check to see if you have one? Nevertheless, i don't think this matters cuz i formatted my device to factory settings which would make it pure stock.

Also i am getting the OTA notification on my phone so i think it does apply to my phone...
[Moto G General] remo0073:
I have books.apk in folder "system/app" so I think you should have one too.
