Some changes that aren't so obvious but are very welcome:

In the QuickContact view, choosing the Messaging icon now properly opens Hangouts if that is what you have chosen to handle SMS

The infamous Home Button Bug is now fixed

USB OTG Mass Storage mounting works automatically again, as it did in the original firmware (awesome!); also, the mounting options once again appear in Settings -> Storage

Or at least that's what I've heard ;)
[Droid Ultra General] LeoBloom.:
USB mass storage? You mean there is now an option that isn't MTP?
[Droid Ultra General] rmoney:
Ugh, guess I won't be taking this OTA either.

Annoying since I'm curious to play with the chromecast screen casting.
[Droid Ultra General] Caseyk621:
*New power control widget. The location (GPS) toggle now will show as half on half off if you're using network only location. Will show fully on if GPS is enabled.

calling/text LTE bug has gone, all fuctions on att/tmo sim, chromecast isn't compatible yet.
[Droid Ultra General] akellar:
You aren't taking os updates because Google went away from ICS blue? So you'll never take another update or buy a device that isn't heavily skinned. Interesting choice.
[Droid Ultra General] josuearisty:
What is that infamous home button bug? Never had a problem with it.

[Droid Ultra General] jesta192:
No, I'm referring to the USB host mad storage mode, which allowed you to use USB storage devices and USB flash drives with the phone. This feature was "accidentally" removed in a previous update, but it now works.

Another option besides PTP and MTP would be nice wouldn't it?

---------- Post added at 12:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:42 PM ----------

Each time you pressed the home button, the OS registered two presses. It caused problems with home screen home button reassignment.
[Droid Ultra General] josuearisty:
Mmm this should be good for me using the phone outside US, Im getting weak signal.

An off topic but important question:

Does anybody know if I can install twrp recovery just being rooted and not having unlocked boot?

There is a flasheable file for verizon phones which adds some gsm goodies, I have got better signal on my droid razr and razr m.

[Droid Ultra General] bigv5150:
No you have to use safe strap it does the same thing even looks like twrp because it is based off it. Twrp is for unlocked boot loader only. With Safe strap you can install zip files. As a matter of fact it does everything twrp does. Only difference is twrp flashes Roms. Safe strap allows this as well but has ROM slots you install on.
[Droid Ultra General] josuearisty:
Alright, thanks.

I have used safestrap with droid razr, but can we install roms on main system? Or use rom slots?

Can I create and restore backups of my current stock rom?

My droid ultra is not rooted because I find it very tedious and little difficult to do.

I have had cliq, cliq xt, backflip, bravo, defy, atrix, atrix2, droid razr and razr m (yes, I like moto) but none of them were that difficult to root, with razr m, bravo and defy there is just an apk for that.

What carrier are you on? I'm on AT&T and been doing some research and thinking about picking Maxx up but there has been so many issues that I'm hesitant to. Can you please share your experience? Maybe in a pm since I don't want the thread to go off topic but if everything works on AT&T after 4.4 update then I'll go pick one up now :D

TIA!

[Droid Ultra General] Kittimasak:
I'm living in Europe with the droid maxx and I love it. Just got the phone last week, couldn't be happier with my choice!
[Droid Ultra General] noobsquared:
Thanks for your input man, it makes me want the phone even more so now..lol

If only we can confirm that it works on AT&T without any issues and I'll put my Moto X up for sale :D
[Droid Ultra General] Orion575:
I just got my Droid Maxx a week ago and using it with a Straight Talk(AT&T) sim card and everything works just fine
[Droid Ultra General] noobsquared:
Thanks man. Will have to pick one up. I guess 4.4 fixed it. LTE to 4g transition and all works as well?
[Droid Ultra General] rmoney:
Clearly it was just the ICS blue that bothered me...
[Droid Ultra General] Orion575:
Everything except LTE works just fine. I got pretty good speed on HSPA+
[Droid Ultra General] xxBrun0xx:
I also picked up a maxx recently for use on att. Everything works flawlessly right out of the box. Best phone on the market :)
[Droid Ultra General] Jhall8:
I'll back this up 100%. I bought the Maxx on Verizon a month ago, and it's been fantastic, especially after the 4.4.4 upgrade.
[Droid Ultra General] noobsquared:
So, once you turn LTE off, everything works like a charm? What kind of speeds everyone is getting on HSPA+? Do you get better battery life too without LTE?
[Droid Ultra General] xxBrun0xx:
For those of us on att, it's noticeably slower than LTE was on my moto x, but it isn't annoyingly slow. After about a day, I got used to it and it doesn't feel slow anymore. Can't imagine it would use MORE battery than LTE, especially when idling. Did notice the phone heats up a bit more than the x did after using data for a while, though. But that could also have nothing to do with LTE, who knows? Not that the phone gets hot, just warm whereas the moto x never felt more than cool to the touch.
[Droid Ultra General] noobsquared:
Thanks man. That's what I figured. It will be slow but I'll get used to it. Usually in a WiFi range anyways. As long as it's stable hopefully. Ordered one from eBay and hopefully it'll work and will match the description lol

Is there any noticeable improvement after 4.4?
[Droid Ultra General] xxBrun0xx:
Since switching from 4.4 to 4.4.4, I've noticed the camera seems to have a much easier time focusing. But other than that, not really. Once you've unlocked you're bootloader, updating takes about 10 minutes and won't wipe your data, so why not? Just do some reading here and over on droidrzr about how to do it via fxz
[Droid Ultra General] redddog:
I have noticed a major improvement in battery life after my limited time with 4.4.4.
[Droid Ultra General] smartazz69:
21.11.21 anyone hacking?

Do you know if anyone is working on a way to fix the 4.4.4 21.11.21. I had got a new Droid Maxx thru swappa and that's the android version that came with it. I miss the root and being able to hack the mobile hotspot.

[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Mord0rr:
I been using this rom (2.0.1.i) a few days until now, with the last update XXX_140709.

Is anyone using this rom?

What`s your opinion about is use vs 123?

I sincerely don`t seem any improvement so far...

and i see a massive amount of the lost of battery

...:(:(

Last night i sleep with 74%, and when i wakeup, i did see 68%....even much worse than Colour 123i

Can`t say about telephone low level on calls because i haven`t receive nine until now.

Yours feedback?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] BrianDigital:
my girlfriend hasnt said anything, I flashed radio ( i run cm) and I have noticed that cell standby is second most thing consumed by battery ( @ 20% after a work day)

That might be your new battery drain
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] tobias14:
yesterday I upgraded from unrooted stable 1.2.3.i to COS 2.0.1.i BETA

my impressions so far are very positive

I had 5 calls today and there is no low in-call volume bug, sound is loud and clear as it was before 1.2.3.i update which brought this bug

battery consumption seems to be more or less the same as on 1.2.3.i (which is good), but still too early to confirm that. Lost 2% overnight.. Interesting though that currently battery manager is showing Android system used 41% of my battery and the screen 31% only (on 1.2.3.i screen was always between 75% and 80%). Right now am with 75% battery left with 1 hour SOT. Mostly gmail-ing on data connection. So, I should easily reach 4 hours SOT before battery is empty (I use wifi connection at home and it uses much less battery than data...) and this is comparable with average 4.5 hrs SOT which I had on 1.2.3.i.

I like new animations and overall more polished look of GUI

music player finally displays proper details and album art of my mp3 songs

..and another thing which is very important to me since my find 7a has a yellow tint issue: apparently oppo changed colour temperature and the yellow tint is now much less noticeable. Pls oppo keep this colour settings also in the future updates

have not encountered any major bugs till now, but again, am on COS 2.0.1.i BETA since y'day only

for now I would say good work oppo!
[Moto X Q&A] idonttakedrugs:
I have an unlocked MOTO x and im on 4.4.2?? isnt 4.4.4 out now?
[Moto X Q&A] Joseluize:
No, the last version is 4.4.3 and if you really need to update (there is no reason to do) first install a retail version firmware for your X model. (If there)

Here's the complete firmware list.

http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=0

Enviado desde mi XT1053 mediante Tapatalk
[Moto X Q&A] idonttakedrugs:
4.4.3 isnt there no, will it come soon?
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
First, the person who answered you should have asked which device you are using (model number), and who your carrier is.

Second, the majority of us here don't recommend that you flash another carrier's firmware to your phone. Many things can go wrong, and if you ever revert back to the correct firmware, you have to use extreme caution to make sure you don't flash an OLDER firmware version to the phone, which can brick it!!! If you choose to flash a different firmware to your phone, do it at your own risk. You could end up with a paperweight.

Third, both the 4.4.3 and 4.4.4 updates are very MINOR updates. It isn't worth bricking just because you aren't patient, simply to (possibly) get another hour or two of battery life or a few small bug fixes.

I highly recommend that you simply be patient. Your carrier WILL release 4.4.4 eventually, and at that time you can simply take the over-the-air update assuming you haven't modified your /system or flashed custom recovery.
[Moto X Q&A] scottshebs:
the update won't be noticeable to the users. it is bug fixes and a few tweaks. better to wait for 5.0 to come out
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
Slight correction... that is NOT the complete firmware list.

That site contains a copy of any SBF found or leaked... Sometimes it takes weeks after an OTA is pushed before a leaked SBF of that version is found and posted (think ATT 4.4.2)

They are "leaks" in the fact that they are not meant to be released to the public. As for how they "make it out" to end up on that site, well that is a different discussion that I don't want to get into.

That site is neither owned, operated, nor supported by Motorola.
[Moto X Q&A] dhru1405:
also if you have had a locked phone PREVIOUSLY but unlocked it later, and you are using a carrier thats not the orginal one, I think that could also factor in as to why you are not getting updates. For example, if you had a moto x for ATT and you unlocked it to use for TMOBILE, you might have a delayed update or in some cases no update at all. Just my 2 cents.
[Moto X Q&A] idonttakedrugs:
bought it unlocked mate,
[Moto X Q&A] idonttakedrugs:
my phones unlocked, so shouldnt i have the latest from motorola?? i will wait, but im just baffled on how i havent got it
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
It does not matter that your phone is unlocked. This is totally unrelated to receiving updates. Just FYI, NO ONE with a Moto X has received 4.4.4 yet (except MAYBE soak-testers). Only a handful of carriers are on 4.4.3.

The 4.4.3 upgrade was CANCELLED do to a bug being found, and instead, all the variants that hadn't released 4.4.3 are going to be upgraded STRAIGHT to 4.4.4 (skipping 4.4.3 entirely).

I don't think you understand just how much testing has to go into these upgrades before they are released.

Here is an EXCELLENT article that should explain it for you. The part you are interested in is called "The Big Hold-Up"

[General Questions and Answers] N3ro99:
Hello there,

I think I have a little problem with my settings with my Chinese smartphone, he is compatible with almost all existing frequencies BUT there is a concern, I do not understand why my phone only displays almost the entire time that it is connected in 2G and 4G but I liked these quite annoying because 4G is not available everywhere in my country (Belgium, my operator is Mobile vikings - Base). I'm sure I set my phone to work with 2G/3G/4G 3 modes.

I do not understand why because my phone do CDMA and WCDMA my operator it is WCDMA.

So I try to look with Uncle Mobile Tools but I have no way to make the phone work with GSM / WCDMA / LTE the only option I have with the 3 mode does not include the WCDMA but CDMA.

Here are some screen to a better understanding of my problem.

My settings in setting app:

My settings in mobile uncle is "unknow" :

My phone works on these band :

GSM band : 2/3/8

WCDMA BAND : 1/2/5

TD-SCDMA: 34/39

FDD-LTE : 7/3

TDD-LTE : 38/39/40

I really need help to have LTE/WCDMA/GSM in same time to have 3g fonctional when there is not 4g thanks :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] apollo07:
Thanks for the amazing work you've brought to the gnex, but since i'm on F2FS i was wondering if you could make a F2FS compatible version of this rom?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ziyan:
Yeah, but the glitches are still there. Actually, that may be a bug in android itself (it affects a lot of devices), they may have fixed it on L... and those workarounds are really not important, as the problem only comes when taking screenshots. And since android takes screenshots for the rotation animation, etc, those glitches appear there as well. The workarounds just force it to take screenshots on CPU-path, they don't change anything else.

I think they fixed it in DDK 1.12 (which is the next version after 1.9), but that's another story, as I think it does not support our GPU (but it may in the future).

Not yet, I'm focusing on camera for now :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] musical_chairs:
I've got it built and booting on toroplus. :D

I've still got a few things messed up in my build, as GPS isn't working and I had to copy a few libs in from the official toroplus omni build to get GPS and radio working. But I'm pretty sure these problems are due to my build setup. the fact that I was missing the samsung proprietary files. I believe I have it all straightened out now.

Edit: Ran AnTuTu benckmark on stock Omni and the DDK 1.9 build. 1.9 scored a bit better than stock, 2d graphics scored 801 (stock was 797) and 3d scored 2774 (stock was 2449). For whatever that's worth...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] musical_chairs:
Using YouTube as a test, video playback fails with:

ERROR: DOMX Write failed 0xffffffff -1

Errors are the same with or without those commits.

Edit: Wait, I need to uncomment BOARD_USE_TI_ENHANCED_DOMX := true, in BoardConfig.mk, right?

Edit 2: Looks like in addition to those two commits, I would need:

this: https://gerrit.omnirom.org/8143

and this: https://gerrit.omnirom.org/8142

And, of course, this:

https://gerrit.omnirom.org/#/c/8139/

...do I just pull that in to device_samsung_tuna? I'm not using device_samsung_omap4-common. Guess I'll try and see what happens.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] musical_chairs:
I did manage to get it to build with all those commits, and tried various BoardConfig.mk settings. I think I have everything pointing to the right places, but I'm pretty much of a noob yet. Camera and video playback still fail with the error I posted above. dmesg chimes in with this:

<3>[ 188.121673] _rpmsg_pa_to_da: error with pa to da from rproc -22
<3>[ 188.121765] _rpmsg_omx_buffer_lookup: _rpmsg_omx_buffer_lookup: buffer lookup failed ffffffea
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ziyan:
Yes, those are needed, include them into device_samsung_tuna, I don't recommend using device_samsung_omap4-common. Alternatively, you can use CM11, it has everything needed to support custom OMX sources, that's what I used to experiment. There's a device tree for that in my github.

Did you include the patches you linked from omni's gerrit?

Also, you will need to update the kernel a bit. Use my p-andoid-omap-3.0-dev branch as a reference (that's the base kernel I used to update ours), and compare the commit logs for the following directories:

drivers/gpu

drivers/remoteproc

drivers/rpmsg

Currently, my newpvr2 branch tries to be compatible with our current omx implementation... I'm not sure about this, but it seems like DDK 1.9 requires a change that breaks the current omx stuff, that's why the new one is needed.

You need to cherry-pick most of the missing commits, as those are needed for the new OMX, if I'm correct. Just be careful, as our ducati is so old, that you need to workaround (or skip) some commits. For example, "remoteproc: get suspend address from resource table", as our ducati doesn't support this. Be careful with every commit related to ducati... Thanks to Hashcode for this info.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] musical_chairs:
I did include all five of the patches from omni's gerrit. I ended up downloading device_samsung_omap4-common and changing BoardConfig.mk in device/samsung/tuna to point TI_CUSTOM_DOMX_PATH and DOMX_PATH to device/samsung/omap4-common instead of localdir. I'm not at all sure that this is correct, but it does compile and doesn't seem to break anything.

The kernel changes are a bit beyond anything I've done so far, I will keep poking around at them but that is going to take me a while.

For fun, I added 512 MHz to the GPU clock speeds, the on3demand governor happily uses it.
