Updated to 4.4.4 and rooted now works like charm
[Moto E General] raja.pandu54:
Moto E get Android L update or Not? Anyone please help me
[Moto E General] 5zan:
Considering android L uses ART & moto E has low internal memory it's very unlikely that it will get android L update.
[Moto E General] amarjit_rsingh:
Nothing has been decided as of now, wait for Motorola for officially annoucing it

---------- Post added at 07:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:34 PM ----------

Don't think so, but should wait for motorola to announce instead of just discussing about whether we will get it or not
[Moto E General] Dhiraj:
Most probably Not.
[Moto E General] Ntld33@DLDE%7C:
Just got an update for XT1021 (retgb.en.GB), version 4.4.4. So excited. :)
[Moto E General] ct85msi:
Still nothing, en.GB here too :)
[Moto E General] 5zan:
Is there any way to root moto e without unlocking boot loader & flashing custom recovery? I just want plain root so I can move .obb to SD card
[Moto E General] Deadly:
No such option yet.
[Moto E General] maiza:
Now you can update your Moto E in Spain too.

Android 4.4.4 available.

:D
[Moto E General] ampelift:
Yes me to Spain version ,when i try to update i always get the same message (update unsuccessful).

I am stock but i have an unlocked bootloader... maybe the reason ?
[Moto E General] chetan_c12:
hi

Hi I am facing unique pblm that where ever I try to update to KitKat v4.4.4 I can download update but while installing update it just goes to recovery mode n nothing happen I have to manually reboot r power off devices in recovery mode I can see all options available in recovery mode mean while after power on it just goes to recovery mode n same thing happens as mentioned above, so anyone kindly explain how to install update...

I have rooted MOTO E n flashed with recovery image, but still haven't installed any custom ROM...

Thank you!!!!!
[Moto E General] Hetalk:
If you're on a custom recovery, you won't be able to flash ota update directly.

But, you can flash the modified ota update, if you're using TWRP recovery.

See the thread here and make sure you read and understand 1st post before attempting anything.

Hi everyone! :) I'm patiently waiting for my 4.4.4 update too :) Any news about the European retail? (Single sim, EUretail, stock OS, no root nor modding)

If moto e gets L update, it'd be like iPhone 4 running iOS 7..;) :p

Sent from my XT1022

Hey my mom's phone got the update (Greece). In which county did you buy it?
[Moto E General] Rino@88:
Thanks for the reply, finally I received it too last week :) Btw I bought it in Italy ;)
[Moto E General] Dhiraj:
The following conversation I have made with moto agent in India few min back.
[Moto E General] ChaTy:
wht the hell....agents tell different news and official twitter forum says the other ...

Is this the way motorola treat their costumer ???
[Moto E General] Dhiraj:
This is nothing but marketing strategy.

I am sure Moto G and X users will received their next update very soon. Even Brazil Moto E users .
[Moto E General] amarjit_rsingh:
but still i will say it is not an issue because sooner or later we will be getting 4.4.4 update
[Moto E General] ChaTy:
sooner or later.....haha letz hope for sooner....that too as soon as possible.
[Moto E General] ChaTy:
They said....update rollout has begun in phases...

press thanks if helped ;)
[Moto E General] XRator:
Bad news for MOTO E users who reside in India. Their won't be an update of 4.4.4 for our devices till a single sim MOTO E gets one. We have to wait for some days until they program it for Dual sim functionality. :rolleyes:
[Moto E General] ChaTy:
where did u got this news from ?????
[Moto E General] Deadly:
I really don't get it. Why is it a bad news? We will eventually get the update. Besides, its just some bug fix and probably one or two app update of moto apps and a version update. Of course I'm eager to get the update just like everyone else. But in the end its just a small update.

If it was an Android L update, then I can understand the fuss or hype about it. This will be just bug fix or a slight improvement in performance or battery at best. It won't be very big to notice the change.

So if anyone ACTUALLY gets an update, they could try adding zip on Xda. Otherwise going on about it with pure speculation or bashing moto for not enough info on when update comes is pointless. They at least said there will be an update. That should be enough when there are companies who don't give updates or inform about whether you will get one or not.
[Moto E General] ChaTy:
yeah...totally agreed.
[Moto E General] Dhiraj:
Don't worry, we will get 4.4.3/4 when other country moto E users will enjoy L.

I don't think they will prepare any special 4.4.4 direct build for Indian users. They already have started distribution 4.4.3 for their other models including Moto E Brazil dual sim edition in 4th June . Very soon , they will release small 4.4.4 update for all their models . So, it is not true that they are delaying due to dual sim support. Low price ,poor support. They will follow same updates line 4.4.3 , then 4.4.4 for India also,but until the demand of this phone in India become low.
[Moto E General] Ex-Hunter:
I've had a conversation with the customer care representative.

He has confirmed the twitter post.:o

He said 4.4.4 has indeed been released to very few devices for "testing".:confused:

He also said everyone will get the update within this month. He doesn't know about the July 14 date.

I don't know what he meant by "testing" but I think he is referring to first wave of OTA push.

Usually OTA updates aren't pushed at once. They are released in phases or waves in percentages.

For Nexus, Google starts with only 1% of devices in the first 24-48 hours. Later it is upped to 25% and later 50 %.

Once everything is working smoothly and if there aren't any major bugs that they didn't notice before releasing the update, they'll release it to rest of the devices 2-3 weeks after the update announcement. Moto must be following something similar.:fingers-crossed:

So no need to worry or get impatient. India will get 4.4.4 pretty soon, actually earlier than other countries.:cool:

ButI do hope, that someone captures the OTA link or upload the update.zip if they're part of the earlier waves. Cheers! :)

[Moto E General] jitz_:
This is because the time Motorola update testing is going on this user might be checked his device system update & he is able to get. On the mean time Motorola stopped there testing process , that's the reason we are not able to update might be if we tried that time they are testing we also able to update... So now we have to wait until they start providing through there server. Just wait and watch .

[Moto E General] Dhiraj:
Your first 5digs of imei no. Pl.
[Moto E General] :
Sorry for the damper guys... :eek:

I returned home and connected my E to my laptop via MDM just now after flashing the stock ROM but unfortunately MDM is not showing update available for my device anymore!!! :crying:

The only notification I'm getting at present is that the software of my device is up to date....

I know I'll get a lot of flak for this but I don't know what I'm doing wrong...

Maybe I should have updated my device at that time instead of connecting it to update now... :(

Apologies to [MENTION=243036]Chatty[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5740383]blazesachdeva[/MENTION] for raising your hopes guys..

Will be checking for updates and will post the update zip as I promised if I get the OTA...

Maybe shouldn't have posted before updating...

Extremely sorry...

[MENTION=3398626]Dhiraj[/MENTION] won't disclose my IMEI...

FYI, I ordered my Moto E on FK within 5 mins of its official launch and received it within 4 days...
[Moto E General] blazesachdeva:
No need to say sorry mam.. Frankly speaking I am not much hyped about this update. Because it is just minor one few bugs fix... So yeah no need for an apology.. :)
[Moto E General] :
Thanks for understanding... :good:

Btw, maam is an overstatement... he he... ;)
[Moto E General] blazesachdeva:
Hehe alright. Will take care of that in future :D
[Moto E General] ChaTy:
ohkk...no problem....

lets c what happens. .
[Moto E General] :
Sure, will keep others updated...

Not beforehand this time though... :p
[Moto E General] ChaTy:
yeah....btw....what actually must have happened in yr case ??

u flashed with stock os right ? then how come u didnt got notification ?? seriously....just cant imagine yr reaction after that.....
[Moto E General] :
I think that like Nexus OTAs they reach to a no. of users...

Since I was one of the first buyers I think i got the update....

But since I didn't update then, the update cycle skipped me and became available to the next person in the queue... :crying:

This is what happens in the Nexus OTAs..

I think they are now spreading the update to a very small no. of users who are the earliest buyers...

But since the update is being spread out carefully, I missed it when I skipped it....

You bet... :)

But since I had a good time out, didn't got too bothered... ;)

The only thing which bothered me was the reaction I could face here... :p

Btw, next time you want me to reply, please mention me in the post...

Else I don't get any notifications and you know I don't have the power of ubiquity... :angel:

If you are rooted, or have ANY other /system modifications, you wont be able to get OTA.

Stock ROM+rooted(permanent)+boot loader unlocked..... will dat do good for an OTA??
[Moto E General] JJSingh:
Guys rooted devices get OTAs notifications too,it doesn't matter bootloader is locked or unlocked.U have modified system,changed kernel,etc that matters.. In such case u still get otas notifications,also able to download them but unable to update, only solution is to restore stock rom....

[MENTION=5893980]JJ Singh[/MENTION] Got ua point dude.... Thanx for d prompt reply.....:)
[Moto E General] Deadly:
Its quite simple guys. Everyone who has the phone with internet connection gets the update notification unless you have disabled ota update app.

Everyone can download it too. Regardless of whatever you have done.

Now ota will be successful only if the files that are related to ota will be intact.

So to speak, you need to have stock recovery for it to flash and you need to have all files of system partition intact as in no modifications to related apks. If you have a modded play store with just ui color change for example and rest all same, it might work.

So, make a nandroid backup, flash update and see if it works

If it doesn't then flash fresh stock ROM and update.

Even if you try ota without pure stock as in modded stock, it won't brick your phone as this is not major update and only few files will be replaced.
[Moto E General] gtsfreak:
Can't we use twrp to flash ota update on stock 4.4.2 ROM???????
[Moto E General] Dhiraj:
[MENTION=5879883]g33kparineeti[/MENTION] I asked for first 5digits which is common for many people. I actually wanted to know the series of the imei for which they have released update. No prob. I have received my set on 17th for which I have placed the order on 14th midnight ,5min after the released .So I think we are on same ship . Let's see.
[Moto E General] theraaj:
Ordered on flipkart @ first time launched 14 May (within 5 Min) and received the same on next day, running stock rom no update till now, its nothing to do with who got it first :)
[Moto E General] Ex-Hunter:
I'm not sure that you could've copied the OTA update without root privileges. AFAIK OTA downloads are stored in cache and you need root to access that.
[Moto E General] :
[MENTION=5893178]apk.vst[/MENTION] you have to flash stock ROM before going forward with the update...

Bootloader locked or unlocked doesn't matter at all...

Else you'll be able to download the update but the update procedure itself will fail after a stage...

You can flash the zip itself but to do that still you need to flash the stock recovery...

Hope this helps... :good:

---------- Post added at 09:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:31 AM ----------

The 1st 5 digits of my IMEI are AC1A1.....
[Moto E General] Ex-Hunter:
That's not the IMEI number. You can find it easily by pressing *#06#.

On a side note, I don't think updates are being rolled out according to IMEI. I've heard they normally select randomly from google partner ID. I talked to another representative and he assured me everyone will get it by this week. I hope that turns out to be true

?Hit thanks if I've helped?
[Moto E General] neo.ank:
Has anyone received the OTA yet.?,

Would someone be kind enough to upload it once available. ?
[Moto E General] JJSingh:
Nope still waiting... Reflashed firmware in order to install it...y u want to download from here ? In either way you have to reflash firmware to update.. ☺?
[Moto E General] neo.ank:
Actually, I'm planning to try and modify it. Make a TWRP flashable perhaps.Though it depends on what file contains.
[Moto E General] $!>:
here u go
[Moto E General] neo.ank:
I meant the update file.

BTW, is this the screenshot of your device.?
[Moto E General] JJSingh:
Well in that case u need 1...[emoji1]
[Moto E General] Dhiraj:
I have not found anyone who personally received the update. Most of the screen shots are noting but collection from different sources.
[Moto E General] amarjit_rsingh:
yes that is true, some screenshot is floating on internet and every now and then somebody post it
[Moto E General] Dhiraj:
Few days back, there was a fake info regarding android L update and Motorola confirmed that by saying

"Unfortunately, we have found that a Facebook profile under the name ‘Motorola Germany’ with the following URL facebook.com/MotoDACH/ was created. We would like to point out that this is not an official Motorola site and expressly distance ourselves from said content. All relevant information about Motorola can be found only here on this page.”

Hope , this thing is not going again.
[Moto E General] neo.ank:
True. And they don't appear legit at all. Same is the case with Moto G Asian users. Guess Moto is just teasing users. :p
[Moto E General] Dhiraj:
I don't know about the case of moto g users . Did they get 4.4.3 in time?
[Moto E General] superdragonpt:
^^ This seems legit

At least The kernel version is different, Also The build number.

Don't think this is fake, unless you compiled an new kernel + build.prop edit.

Are you able to pull The update OTA .zip from /cache?

I could make it into an twrp flashable.zip for all The guys here.

Regards
[Moto E General] neo.ank:
No, Same case there.

Or build.prop+Photoshop or build.prop+XT1021. Its still uncertain. The reason I'm skeptical is,this is the same screenshot I've been fed at three different places. Thats why I asked if it was his device or simply a reproduction from somewhere else.

At least no one here has received the update as of now. So no .zip available.

That's what I'm planning to try once its available. I don't want to wipe my phone just to get a minor update.
[Moto E General] Dhiraj:
I have already mentioned that this is nothing but marketing strategy .

I don't know why motorola is teasing us,it has been 4 days since they made announcement on their twitter India account "we started rolling out Android 4.4.4 updates in India",but still we haven't received any update notification... ??
[Moto E General] Deadly:
It takes more than 4 days to get update to all. Probably 3 weeks to complete update process. Have some patience, its a minor update after all.

I can't think of threads that'll pop for android L update
[Moto E General] Ex-Hunter:
Whole heartedly agree with you.:good:

Can't see why people are so anxious and impatient about getting this update. Every other day a new thread is created on this topic, only to be taken down by the moderators. In Nexus it used to take almost 3-4 weeks for the update to reach everyone. So have patience everyone, you're not missing any major features.
[Moto E General] amarjit_rsingh:
People are anxious because of Misleading info posted by Motorola India about being releasing update on Moto E last week saying that they are rolling update while last week none of the users in India got Moto E update so people are confused if they have released / rolling update last week why none of them received it.
[Moto E General] Ex-Hunter:
Are you sure none of them received it? OTAs are released in waves and it takes time to get to all. I've waited longer while I used a Nexus. Flipkart has sold more than 2.85 lakh devices in India and only a few users are present in XDA. And even in XDA we had a fellow member [MENTION=5879883]g33kparineeti[/MENTION] who received an update notification. It's upto you to believe what you want. Personally, I'll go by what Moto has told me, which is to wait till July 14. If we haven't received the update by the end of the month, I'll be the first one to diss Moto India. But until then, I won't be too worried.
