Thanks for the pics..

Is the first set of photos with flash?

Please post your general impressions about the camera update in various conditions. Is there a significant improvement in image quality?
[Moto X General] omias:
Same !! 4.4.3 has 30.B4

But...... surprisingly I can't downgrade to 4.4.2 (I wanna flash Brasil retail 4.4.3) :)
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
Did you try JUST flashing gpt.bin & motoboot.img, then reboot back into bootloader & flash the rest of the images? Since the bootloader version is the same, there is no reason you can't downgrade.

By flashing the partition and motoboot, THEN rebooting back to bootloader, it should solve the gpt.bin mis-match.

in bootloader mode:

fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img

mfastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash logo logo.bin

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

mfastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

fastboot erase modemst1

fastboot erase modemst2

fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

fastboot erase cache

fastboot erase userdata

fastboot erase customize

fastboot erase clogo

If you do in that order, it should work.

Long wait for Verizon's 4.4.3 update?

I have a feeling I'll be waiting a few weeks for the Verizon's version to show up. They always seem way behind the other carriers. *sigh* Or is this more controlled by Motorola?
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
Nope, its 100% VZW. They have to test the OTA and approve it before it can be released. VZW does extensive testing to make sure the new update is 100% compatible with their bloat software, baseband, etc.

The Retail Unlocked versions are vanilla with no bloat, and that's why those will always receive updates faster.

Why the hurry for 4.4.3? Only a couple minor tweaks - nothing major...

I'm on Republic Wireless, and we JUST got 4.4.2 on April 22nd. They are VERY slow at releasing updates - I imagine it will be months before we see 4.4.3 on RW. Be happy VZW is much faster than that.
[Moto X General] goldman007:
I flashed stock recovery, but built-in update consistently reports error when updating. Any ideas how to troubleshoot?
[Moto X General] MaKTaiL:
Did you change/remove any apps from the system? Do you have Xposed Framework installed?
[Moto X General] The Tallest:
So, I'm assuming those of us with DE Editions who debloatedand are running XPosed are going to have to return to factory?
[Moto X General] goldman007:
OK, so I did have Xposed. Ran uninstall, update still fails. I haven't touched system apps. Is there update log file anywhere?
[Moto X General] vitoski:
You have to disable Xposed, uninstalling is not enough. Look to Xposed thread, you will find there proper link.
[Moto X General] Wutang200:
This is the reason why I don't think it's worth rooting lol
[Moto X General] dymmeh:
For the one or two times a year we receive an update and you have to backup and restore everything (a non-interactive, background task that takes ~30min-1hr)? As opposed to the daily benefits of everything root provides?
[Moto X General] biggiestuff:
the camera stuff is what moto added onto top of what 4.4.3 changes. I had bluetooth issues in 4.4.2 that 4.4.3 fixed so I'm happy with that.
[Moto X General] neburg964:
I would agree with this statement with most cellphones, but does rooting a Moto X really make that much of a difference? I mean, other than removing VZW's bloatware (which I never touch, which means i'm really not affected by it at all), to paraphrase Hillary Clinton "What difference does it make?"
[Moto X General] hovax615@hotmail.com:
It makes a whole world of difference. But you have to have write protection off as well. If you just root it doesn't make a difference at all besides little mods here and there.

MOTO X
[Moto X General] neburg964:
In what ways? The X already has practically a pure Android experience. I don't need custom wallpapers, I use a pure black background. I have macro folders on my primary home screen negating the need for any of the other home screens. I don't need a zillion widgets - I use one for the clock, one for the weather, and that's it. So for me, other than removing bloatware, what advantages does rooting the X offer?

So for me, other than removing bloatware, what advantages does rooting the X offer?

FYI, I am not against rooting. I rooted my old X2 and it made a huge difference in performance. Unfortunately I accepted an OTA update to Gingerbread 2.3.5 and it nearly bricked the phone. With my X, I've set animations to 0, set the phone to ART, and I have absolutely no issues at all. Unless there is a seriously noticeable difference, why would I root?
[Moto X General] KidJoe:
Developer Edition, Retail/Store Edition, Moto Maker, it doesn't matter. The OTA has a manifest file that lists files/components of the phone it checks by checksum. If the file doesn't exist or the check sum doesn't match, the OTA wont install.

So you have to undo anything that might have removed, renamed, or other wise altered any stock file. That includes disabling or removing XPosed, removing any build.prop tweaks, undoing any VZWEntitlement.apk hacks to get free Verizon tethering, and such.

And you need Stock Recovery on the device for the OTA to install.

For more see -> http://mark.cdmaforums.com/MotoX-OTA.html

---------- Post added at 04:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:11 PM ----------

Right now the 4.4.3 update is only out for T-Mobile XT1053 and GSM Developer Edition XT1053, along with the one X from a carrier in Brazil. If you do not have one of those phones, then it will always fail. If you *DO* have one of those phones, then...

Stick the OTA file on the emulated SDCard. Boot into Stock Recovery and install update from SD. First pick the Xposed-Disabler-Recovery.zip, then the OTA update.

When the OTA runs it will give you some progress, but if it fails it will tell you exactly why it failed at that point. It will include the file name and path of the offending item.

IF you need to disable Xposed, visit this post -> http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=24267797&postcount=1 and download the attached Xposed-Disabler-Recovery.zip, and also place it on the emulated SD Card boot to recovery and install it. I think you need to do this via 3rd party or custom recovery like TWRP or CWM, but I'm not sure as I don't use Xposed..
[Moto X General] biggiestuff:
You don't NEED root but it does help for those who want a little more control or information over or about their device. Here are the things I use root for.

Better Battery stats - gives me more info about what apps and processes are using my battery. Especially useful if an updated app or new app you've installed may be draining your juice.

Apps Op X - Some apps even if you turn off certain location features still request for it. FB being one of the culprits. Ever since i removed the location permissions from Facebook using Apps Op X. The alarms that show up in Better Battery stats have gone down dramatically. This is an example of one app. Best Buy, scramble, and words with friends are others.

Greenify - although you technically don't need root any longer for Greenify to work, you'd still need root for greenify to do it automatically otherwise you'd have to do a manual hibernation and it force stops the apps that you select to greenfiy. Allowing a rooted greenify app to do it automatically takes the maintenance out of it. I like my phone to have as much memory free as possible so apps like Aero, best buy, scramble with friends, groupon, zedge, espn radio, roku

titanium backup. Some apps you just can't disable via the built in feature. Motorola care is one. You can't greenify it, you can't disable it, so you have to use freeze feature of TB to disable it. Of course most people won't really notice the effects but again for me I like to free up as much memory as possible. TB also lets you pull apks from your device in case you want to back it up in case an update app doesn't perform the way you'd like.

PS3 controller. I can't pair my controller with my phone unless it's rooted.

Android is a very powerful OS and for most people you don't need to root. My wife doesn't need it, but then again all she does is facebook and text. Her phone performs fine for those two tasks. Others like me do a lot more with our phones and multitask with it and would like to manage it much closer than what stock allows.
[Moto X General] vikramkhalsa:
^^^ + 1

Exactly. You don't really neeed to root your Moto X, but there are numerous benefits to it if you wanted to. Beyond the ones mentioned above are Xposed stuff like gravity box, brings a lot of the customization stuff I was used to from custom ROMS on my nexus. Like quick setting tiles customization, navbar ring targets and longpress and so much more. For the average user its not necessary but it can really help you get an even better experience than the stock moto x already provides.

Regarding 4.4.3, I have noticed an improvement in battery life. I haven't done a quantitative analysis or anything but I see a difference. I haven't really been able to tell the difference in camera quality.
[Moto X General] yar2:
Very impressed. My GSM unlocked/XT1053 gets 4.4.3 before my Nexus 10.
[Moto X General] buschris:
Don't forget about ad-free, autostarts, overclocking, backups, power toggles, Root Explorer, viper4android to name a few essential root apps
[Moto X General] glimmer00:
I was able to install the OTA on my gsm dev edition by just uninstall in xposed, removing root via the supersu option to do so, unfreezing all frozen apps, and putting the stock recovery back. I then accepted the OTA and reenabled everything after it was done. I did this for my phone and my wife's.
[Moto X General] KidJoe:
Huh? VZW got one of the X updates first (before the other carriers).

Someone made an astute observation in another thread (can't find link)... How they seem to be rotating which carrier gets the update first... Verizon was first one for one of the updates, Sprint on another, now its T-Mobile/Unlocked GSM...
[Moto X General] scottjb:
Similar situation here. Moto X has 4.4.3, Nexus 5 got it about two days before Moto X., Nexus 7 (2012) does not have it yet.
[Moto X General] kboya:
No sign of it for UK model... Cmon Motorola, show the X some love not just the G.
[Moto X General] isaakmg:
I had the same problem. Solution.... Flashed radio of GB stock rom radio... I believe that baseband don't change with 4.4.3.....I'm not sure.... Only believe this.....

Enviado desde mi XT1053 mediante Tapatalk
[Moto X General] Wutang200:
This is exactly my thinking. The X allows me to do pretty much what I want to without the need to root. I don't feel the need to root and also can't justify it. Everything works just the way I like it to. The Motorola apps that I don't want, I usually just disable them.

It also means I don't get issues with updates at times like this. Also keeps my warranty intact.
[Moto X General] Slick52:
Well, I guess I haven't had the Moto X long enough to know it's carrier update history. I came from a Verizon Galaxy Nexus, which without XDA, would still have 4.1 on it.
[Moto X General] cipsaz:
New dialer sucks. The pics are too big and sometimes it lags.
[Moto X General] Restola:
Can't find the xposed thread you're mentioning and no reference to anything other than uninstall that I can find on the xposed site. Any help with a link?
[Moto X General] vikramkhalsa:
There is an xposed disabler zip somewhere in your internal memory.. flash it via twrp. I had trouble figuring that out at first too.. don't remember the path ( it wasn't in my root directory) but you should be able to find it by searching in es file explorer or maybe twrp itself..
[Moto X General] KidJoe:
Read Post #34 of this thread, it explains it.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ryland88:
Hi there,

I'm having an issue with my S5 which is starting to become problematic. When I set my phone to vibration mode and I am called, the phone only vibrates once (shortly) and then goes silent. It does not keep vibrating. This is an issue as my phone is always on vibrate whenever I am at work and I'm missing a lot of calls due to this.

I've tried setting a custom vibrate pattern to no success. When sound is on I can choose to 'vibrate when ringing', but this option is greyed out when I set the phone to vibrate only.

Is this the intended way of functoning? Can I change it somehow? Thanks in advance!
[Nexus 4 General] jd1639:
Your bootloader must be unlocked to use this. If your bootloader is not already unlocked, unlocking it will wipe your data and this method is not recommended.

This is a modified factory image that will not erase your user data or custom recovery. This can be used even if you’re rooted and with modified system files, xposed framework, or custom recovery. Once installed you will lose root, just flash supersu in your custom recovery. Xposed should still be on your device so just go into the app and re-install it. For any modified system files, you will have to re-modify those.

This is intended for those on the stock rom, rooted, and with a custom recovery. It’ll work if you have a custom rom but will put the stock system on.

I am not responsible for anything you do to your device so flash at your own risk. Always backup before doing any significant changes to your device. I would recommend off your device in case something happens

.

To use, download the modified factory image here https://mega.co.nz/#!AAATiKpI!PJbBgroM6PB7tTAs_TanCOrlzAeqBq0PEupNyvU72pEl Use 7-zip or winrar to extract the files.

Supersu by chainfire can be found here, CWM / TWRP / MobileODIN installable ZIP: http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu

Boot into the bootloader. From a cmd window opened where the flash-all file is just type flash-all. You can use shift, right click on the occam-ktu85l-Modified folder to open a command window in the correct folder. ADB/FASTBOOT must be intalled on your PC.

You can also just double click on the flash-all.bat

This is tested on a windows machine; however it should work on a Mac too, flash the flash-all.sh.
[Nexus 4 General] pincher65:

my situation

Hello guys

I have tried to enter the adb commands into the command prompt but it says they are unrecognised and I dont know exactly why the adb will not fucntionhttp://xdaforums.com/images/smilies/confused.gif. I think I may have disabled USB debuging by mistake before I had the bootloop.

BTW does this stock image work for the NEXUS 7 device
[Nexus 4 General] jd1639:
First, it will not work on the n7. Just double click on the flash-all.bat file. Easier than entering any commands, they're fastboot commands by the way
[Nexus 4 General] Gloftking:
?

if it cannot work on the nexus 7 then for me there isnt much point. isnt there anything else that will be able to fix that
[Nexus 4 General] jd1639:
Then what are you doing in the n4 forum? Go to the n7 forum
[Nexus 4 General] Gloftking:
?

could you tell me were that is?
[Nexus 4 General] :
you can write your wherein they differ from the original rom issued by google ?
[Nexus 4 General] jd1639:
It's identical except it won't wipe your device and userdata and recovery images are removed.
[Nexus 4 General] Ivan609:
Sry for noob question. I suppose this process is made to update rooted n4 to 4.4.3. without erasing data and apps? I have rooted 4.4.2. stock and would like to update it to 4.4.3. leaving data and apps intact and to have root.
[Nexus 4 General] jd1639:
You'll lose root updating. Just flash supersu in your custom recovery after flashing this

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Conako:
Greetings Everyone,

I have lost my HTC One M7 phone last year in Manchester and I bought another one immediately. Which was used phone HTC ONE Black 64GB. (PN07140)

I'm writing this to tell you I have no clue if the first owner had rooted the phone or unlocked it because I have not experience in these things. I just notice that the OTA update is not working and I'm stuck with the Jellybean 4.2.2 version.

The phone details:

HTC ONE M7 64GB (Black)

TAMPERED

UNLOCKED

M7_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH

HBOOT-1.44.0000

RADIO-4A.14.3250.13

OpenDSP-v26.120.274.0202

eMMC-boot

Android Version: 4.2.2

HTC Sense Version: 5.0

Software Number: 2.17.401.1

What I want?

I just want the OTA update works again to install the latest Android version with the original rom.

Please, explain in steps or refer to similar links I have been searching for 2 hours and I'm almost lost here!

Thanks for reading. Hope I was clear.

But still couldn't find how to return to the original rom :crying:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
AFAIK, the only 64gb version of the htc one is the developer edition so its look like the previous owner (badly) converted this phone to an WWE model.

with s-off, it will be easy to restore your phone to dev edition and update it to latest version.

start by posting the output of ''fastboot getvar all'' except the IMEI and serialno

do you have a custom recovery installed?

I'm already lost and can't figure which guide I have to follow or tool I need to use, Do I have to download firmware, OTA or stock from here? (cannot insert link) I just want it back like new with original rom.

so reboot your phone in bootloader mode (hold power + volume down)

use vol up/down to navigate to ''fastboot'' and hit power to enter fastboot mode

connect your phone to computer using usb cable

you should see FASTBOOT USB in red

open a command prompt from your adb/fastboot folder

ok first unlock the bootloader again. dev edition phones come with an unlocked bootloader by default.

follow this tutorial to unlock bootloader:

[YOUTUBE]xuIq0gmYpFA[/YOUTUBE]

then download TWRP 2.6.3.3 recovery from here and save it to the folder you have adb and fastboot in.

make sure the phone is in bootloader mode - fastboot usb

and type these commands:

fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot

now your phone should be booted back in the OS

then dowload these 2 files and save it to the root of your sdcard:

http://www.htc1guru.com/?wpfb_dl=158

http://fs1.d-h.st/download/00084/w9V/MID_Change_1.01.zip

no you dont need to unzip them.

now in twrp recovery, select ''install'' then browse the /sdcard to find ''MID_Change_TOOL_v.1.01.zip'' (should be at the end of the list).

then ''swipe to confirm flash''

a graphical interface will show up (aroma installer)

click ''next''

select ''I agree with these Term of Use.'' and click next again

click next

select ''PN0712000'' and then ''next''

select ''install now''

wait for the install to complete and click ''next''

click finish

now you are back in twrp recovery, click ''back arrow'' twice and then ''reboot'' and chose ''bootloader''.
