Just keep stock rom without root, and wait for OTA
Edit: If you want the update and dont wait for OTA just flash 4.4.2 Tmobile version and download the OTA (Tmobile version too).
Then install recovery twrp and root your phone using the twrp.
I did that !!!! Now I've 4.4.3 rooted

If you have root...Im 95% sure that you can't receive/install OTA. I've 2 moto x...... The first one updated via OTA and the second one updated via "manual" OTA. My 2 moto x is unlocked bootloader with no root.
I rooted my 2 moto x after the 4.4.3 update [emoji6] You know........ No risk.

Right !!! You need..... NO root and stock recovery. [emoji106]. The bootloader locked/unlocked doesn't matter [emoji6]

OTA Updates

I am thinking of rooting the One, however having received the OTA update for the camera I would like to know if rooted would theses updates (and 4.2.2 when available) be able to be received and installed ?
Thanks

If you're rooted you can't receive OTA.
For receive OTA you need a locked/relocked bootloader...
Say your rooted but on the stock Rom,Can't you use "OTA Rootkeeper" ?
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
If you have the bootloader open (unlocked), you can't receive ota update.
With Evo 3D and One X is so.
I think is the same for the one...

What if you're on the dev edition that comes with an unlocked bootloader?

I don't know.
But i repeat, i had Evo 3D and with an unlocked bootloader no OTA.
Same for the One X that i have now, because my one will arrive in some hours.

That would suck if the dev edition couldn't get OTA updated. But I highly doubt that is the case. We'll see soon enough (hopefully).

Theoretically, dev don't need OTA support.
Dev have ruu and source code for kernel...

Do not take the ota, wait for the sbf firmware and flash with rsdlite, I have seen and read more problems due to accepting an ota, patience my friend. No guarantee that you will have an issue but its better to be safe than sorry

SAme here, but what If I unroot via toolkit? Dangerous?
If you have deleted system apps, flashed a custom recovery or things like that then either SBF back to the original 4.2.2 firmware or 4.4 when available. If its only root you can just take the OTA. It will kill root during the process.

[Q] (Q) Bootloader and update

So, I have my brand new Moto X XT1097 here in Mexico, as far I know no matters if Motorola sold me or a carrier, the only Pure Edition is the XT1095, so having this in mind, I decided to flash the Official Lollipop version XT1097, here in Mexico is already rolling. But my phone has locked bootloader and I already check at Motorola page and is suitable for unlock, but I dont want to unlocked, not just yet. Well, my question is, if I update my phone to Lollipop will I be able to unlock the bootloader after that or I have to unlock BEFORE the update?
Thanks in advance.
Doesn't matter at all. You can install the 5.0 OTA and unlock your bootloader later.

well, is not OTA, but the zip, I will install using ADBsideload. Some others mexicans users having the same firmware version are receiving the OTA others dont. But anyway, thanks my friend.
I updated with the zip file that was uploaded for México. And then unlocked the bootloader on lollipop

The file is only for pure edition. I tried and failed. There are a couple of post on General section of how to convert you phone to pure edition, including my own tutorial. Regards

That's only a ota not the full ROM. You can't install this if you are already running lollipop.

Not receiving lollipop ota

Hi I own a note 4 N910CXXU1ANL3 and I'm not receiving the lollipop ota update. I'm still on 4.4.4 and when I check for update it says latest version already installed.
What to do, considering lollipop has been pushed to all other versions as per my knowledge.
Tnx in advance!

I turned ota off so I wont get it. KK is fine until Lollipoop is sorted or we get M, yeah right.
You can download it from here http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-N910C/ and flash it with odin.
