[Moto X General] nijom:
time for downgrade then!

I have no other issue with Lollipop but I miss this.

I'll have to touch my phone or keep my hand over (in the air) it for few seconds for Active Display to show notifications.

It needed just a wave in Kitkat.

Also the custom Moto Voice is good (instead of Ok Google) but I need wave to wake.

So I need to look how to unlock my bootloader as Im on stock unrooted Lollipop Xt1052.

Thanks :)
[Moto X General] sherif2015:
Am too urooted . unlocked bootloader via Motorola site.
[Moto X General] nijom:
Thanks for the heads up.. :)

I didn't know how to unlock and I'll check Motorola site.
[Moto X General] MortimerR:
Thanks for the post.

I was considering either going back to 4.4.4 or trying CM. But over on the CM thread, it's nothing but people debugging.

This post really made up my mind.

Even the icons for lollipop are a step back. They look like the childish designs from LG and Samsung. Wave to Wake is gone, Cell standby bug destroying battery life with no hope for a fix in the until 2016 it looks like. I will say that some apps do seem to be optimized compared to KitKat though.

On my device I could still change the Google Voice command to something else.

At first I wanted the cutting edge software, but since this device will never be getting M, there's no reason for that.

Someone told me a long time ago, there's no reason to update something unless it needs to be updated. I should have remembered that advice.

Edit* It seems that I can't unlock the bootloader on my Verizon Moto X. That's annoying.
[Moto X General] solarium_rider:
Is 4.4.4 vulnerable to stagefright?
[Moto X General] vikramkhalsa:
I suppose you could just use an app like Textra that alright has protection built in.
[Moto X General] sherif2015:
Satisfied thus far. The phone is much cooler to the touch unlike on lollipop and did I mention that sweet black on the amoled screen

Back to 4.4.4 and couldn't be happier. No more burning battery while the phone is unused. Wave to wake works. Really happy I went back after several months.

4 hours sot on a 2 year old phone. This unexpected turn of events made me reconsider my decision to buy a new phone. Lollipop is the worest OS Google made. Very happy with my moto x.
[Moto X General] papamalo:
SO TRUE!!!
[Moto X General] motoxusr:
I can revert back to 4.4 and give my phone to you if you agree to give me yours:D
[Moto X General] sherif2015:
My moto x 2013 has better battery usage and SOT than the pure 2015.

Head over to their forum and see for yourself.
[Moto X General] JoeSchmoe007:
I own 2 Moto X 1-st gen (1053). One is on KitKat, another still on JellyBean. I find that the one on JellyBean (bought new, my "daily driver") is much more stable and has less problems. I purchased the one on KitKat used and used it extensively for a week on vacation and had numerous hangs while recording video and several hangs during downloading offline maps via WiFi. Never had these problems on JB.

So as far as my experience goes the last "good" version of Android for this phone was the one it shipped with. Pretty sad state of affairs but makes perfect sense - why would they put any effort in updating your phone after they already sold it to you?
[Moto X General] motoxusr:
Rolled back to an old KitKat and got only 3 hours of SOT. What am I doing wrong? :confused:

I am on xt1053 stock 4.4.4. Deleted most apps with Titanium Backup.
[Moto X General] sherif2015:
Hard reset and start fresh.
[Moto X General] motoxusr:
I am downgraded from 5.1.

Fastbooted stock 4.4.4, of course did hard reset 3 times;)

Then deleted all useless apps through Titanium Backup.

Then Xposed with Amplify, AppOps, GravityBox.

BTW I never got SOT time more than 3 hrs. Neither on 5.1, nor 4.4.4.

Maybe it's need time to settle after flashing? :confused:
[Moto X General] dani.galla:
I've downgraded my moto x to kitkat. My moto X is really happy now!
[Moto X General] jasonpctech:
Could not agree more. Lollipop has been a disaster on many devices. The "Updating apps if plugged in" bug bricked a bootloader locked Moto X gen one I had on Republic. Lollipop also ran horrendously poor and unstable on 2 Nvidia Shield Tablet I owned. KitKat or 4.42 to 4.44 is still the most reliable and maintenance free Android version. I am hoping "N" will be the next kitkat in terms of bug free stability as many 5.5 bugs still remain in Marshmallow. Besides there has not been serious innovation beyond KitKat so far really.
[Moto X General] notserpmh:
I switched back on my XT1053 using the instructions in that guide and the image from the Motorola site. Everything is working great except for Bluetooth. Bluetooth was flaky, but worked on 5.1 Now, it acts like it works, but it can't ever find any devices. I've tried it wil several different things and nothing shows up. I've made sure the device is in pairing mode, is close, rebooted everything, cleared data from Bluetooth Share and tried just about any other ideas I can think of.

Anyone have any ideas for what to do next? Should I try a factory reset or reflash the image? Is there anything else I can try before going that drastic?
[Moto X General] riyosakura:
In term of performance, Kitkat is better than Lolipop for Moto X. But lolipop have a better compatibility to the later apps, since it using ART. Later apps will support the fullest feature of ART, it does eat more memory but it compile faster and it will have a good performance in cost of a greater resources. This is why it may be a problem for our old Moto X.

But, on Marsh update, the performance are greatly improve and the battery is so much better compare to Lolipop.

What i like from lolipop it has a better UI with it drop down quick setting tile and a better animation on touch.

I do agree, stock Lolipop or Marsh is not good for our device (amoled display) since it using so much bright color. But with using a Aosp Rom such as CyanogenMod which has a feature to change theme, it does improve the battery so much.

Im using dark material, radius, and coalfield theme. It is a very elegant UI, dark dominant, and battery friendly.

I still get 3 hour 30 minute SOT while playing game. I believe, I can get longer SOT if not playing game.

So, im disagree if Kitkat successor (Lolipop and Marshmallow) is fail.

Yep, stock old ROM is configured better for our device, so it does not have the same bug with the later ROM which is not configured better than it predecessor.

But if we know how to configure it and fix all the bug, error and warning on the catlog,i believe, it will be much better than it predecessor.

Im using Cm13 as my daily driver. It work pretty well, gps, calling, battery, gaming. Its so much improved on UI, animation, quick access, etc. Its faster than Stock Lolipop. But i cant compare the performance to stock 4.4.4, since im never using it. But i do know, it has a better Ui, animation, setting, etc compare to 4.4.4 since im using 4.4.4 in my old samsung device.

The only major problem i get is earpiece issue, the problem itself is because im using an unlocked sim phone.
[Moto X General] Corleone!:
Hi guys,

I hesitate between stock 4.4.4 and CM11 M12...

Which one is better on stability? speed? battery life?
[Moto X General] mario24601:
I was on stock 4.4.4 for over a year. Past two months I've been on cm 12. I like it. Would not go back to 4.4.4
[Moto X General] Johnny Wong:
I liked 4.4.4 and still have my wife's backup MotoX on it but my MotoX DE and Droid MAXX are both on OctOS CM13. With the exception of the flashlight and some videos not working properly, it is by far superior to KK in every way. The phone is much snappier and scrolling is buttery smooth. The battery life is the same as back in the JB days. My MAXX is the daily driver and had been on LP a long time before switching to MM a few months ago. LP was OK but the radio battery drain made it junk. MM had the wifi battery drain but was not nearly as bad and can be fixed by the user. I've also come to the realization that Xposed doesn't work very well for the our phone. I had Greenify, Amplify and Powernap running to try to improve battery life but all it did was choke the phone under multitasking, demanding situations. By demanding, I mean simply having Google Music playing and Google Maps navigating while Bluetooth to the car. It seems like BT is very taxing on this phone and running Xposed is just too much for this old phone to handle. Now I only run Greenify (mostly for aggressive doze) in root mode and the battery life is better than it was running in Xposed mode. So here are some screenshots of my MAXX running OctOS CM13.
[Moto X General] adichandra:
just bought an unlocked verizon moto x xt1060. can i downgrade it to 4.4.4?
[Moto X General] SAGExSDX:
On your Moto X did you not have the inconsistent battery reading issue? I posted on the OctOS thread about it but no one seems to have anything to say about it. But my phone spontaneously shuts down at 50% sometimes. One time it made it to 7% while skydiving when it got past 50%. It's really inconsistent.

I had the same issue when I tried that CM13 build for Moto X.

I have a moto xt 1053 unlocked gsm

So which firmware i have to flash if i want to downgrade to kitkat.

Unlocked bootloader and rooted

But i am confused about this kitkat firmware

Which one for my moto xt1053 unlocked gsm?
[Moto X General] s5610:
Any you like, but don't flash gpt.bin + motoboot.img, and from this point DON'T INSTALL ANY OTA, ever. Or you'll brick it.

Flash latest TWRP (3.1.1), downgrade modem version to KK, then go for CM or stock-mod - it's up to you.
[Moto X General] YedanyXD:
Here are the commands

mfastboot erase cache

mfastboot erase userdata

mfastboot flash boot boot.img

mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img

mfastboot flash system system.img

mfastboot erase userdata

mfastboot reboot

In that order, one by one

You must have, motorola drivers and mfastboot files to can use that commands
[Moto X General] mvoid533:
Thanks i have been successfully downgrade to kitkat.

Do i need flash kitkat modem, which one is better?

5.1 modem or 4.4.4 modem?~
[Moto X General] s5610:
Flash XT1053 4.4.4, the most compatible, and, people say, quickly switching and efficient.

5.1 modem still can be used, but no sense in doing this. It won't work better than 4.4.4.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
I'm not sure why you would expect a modified device like that to take an OTA, or why you would want to. If you do want the OTA, you have to restore the phone to stock. Other than that, you will have to see if someone will release the update as a custom rom to install through TWRP. There are no other options.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oacky007:
Are u asking why i expect? Because the developer of TWRP for z2 pro sais that it works OTA

So anyone have the recovery stock img for me pls.

Thank u a lot!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
They're not referring to stock OTAs, but custom ones, such as CyanogenMod. You might need to flash the whole firmware package or see if you can extract the recovery img from it. If you can extract, then just flash with Flashify.

the vpn provider i use is airvpn.org, a project hosted by activists, which i can highly recommend. not only cheap, but also only limited by server load and of course you're connection speed.

As per my experience(I.e coming from other mobile we had similar groups there where the interaction bhas become easy and manydevs are also present in that group. Which would help beginners to solve this doubts then and there itself.) it is difficult for everyone to always login into xda and check the news always.

So what I felt is if there is a group or a community of the most active users who can solve out all the issues quickly in a. Normal VoIP App which now a days is a fuzz

As Telegram would also not require your personal phone number a user name is enough to handle the things.

If at all there is a similar thread. Sorry I dint skim through all the threads.

Consider this a humble request to buildup a community closer to us.

Users can comment below their user name and I'll add them up.

That's not a bad idea but you need to see how many would like to do this thing.

I use Telegram and it's much better than Whatsapp

[ZenFone 2 General] Niropa:

Ok so if this is gonna work, it is better to clear out some things about the group.

The users who will want to join they can freely do it,there are no restrictions...

But when you got in please avoid to spam out the group.

The discussions should all be refered to the Zenfone 2 topic, so avoid any other discussions in order to don't have 600 messages to read :p .

There will also be development updates (Well at least from me),Q&A are always welcome, this is why the group is about :)

For those who are insecure about Telegram, let me give you a basic intro about how the things work with the maintainment of the groups...

Telegram got a very different way to manage the groups despite Whatsapp, mainly when you want to join a group you can or join through an invite link, or if a user got your number he can freely add you.

In the group you will not be able to see the number phone from other members unless:

1- You already made a chat with that specific contact so automatically Telegram identifies that and make public the phone number, so you will be able to see it.

2- The contact added you to his list of contacts and you as well, so both of you will be able to see your phone numbers

So for who wants to be added from the forum just type here in this thread that you want join and [MENTION=6560350]Cyborg.Gangster[/MENTION] will give you an invite link which will automatically add you into the group :)

So mainly that's it, remember even if it's a group there is still need to keep a moderation tone.

And the last thing... Of course if you want to enter the group you need to have bought the Zenfone 2 :fingers-crossed:
