Hi everyone,
I updated my phone last week, but I didnt liked this atualization. My battery is draining, so I want to downgrade to good and old 4.4.2 but my bootloader is blocked
Have a way to do this with blocked bootloader ?

who is your carrier? Is the SBF for your carrier's 4.4.2 version available at -> http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=0 ??
As long as the bootloader and gpt.bin haven't changed between 4.4.2 and 4.4.3 (which I am not sure of because 4.4.3 isn't out for my phone yet), you should be able to use mFastboot or RSDLite to downgrade... BUT with a locked bootloader, you will have to make sure you are using the SBF for your carrier.
I know it sucks to do this but I had my battery drain issue post 4.4.3 upgrade I did a full system restore, turned off location reporting and location history just (basically just turned All location services damn near off) and then slowly started adding apps back to check and see if there was any drastic changes on a per app basis and eventually it seemed to be less drastic battery drain. I also did the old "battery calibration" which I hear is totally unnecessary and essentially works as placebo... But I will say I truly feel it did do some good. Once down to 2% I launched and ran a movie on the phone and it ran another half hour or so... Maybe I should test this battery calibration. Anyways, that's what seemed to help mine. The phone now has an off charger time if about 17hours with 2.5hrs screen in time. That's about the best I can do.

Oh and I turned location reporting and all that other stuff back on. That is factored into my off charger/screen on time.

Im using the version retail Brasil 4.4.3 and I downloaded the retail 4.4.2 Brasil on your site.
Can I try the downgrade with RSD lite with no unlocked bootloader?
Sorry about my bad english,

Before the update to 4.4.3, my phone was getting 4, 5 hours of screen with 3G turned ON.
And now, it do only 3 hours of screen, its a big diference for who uses a lot the phone.
Sorry my bad english rsrs

Ok, as long as the Versions match!! in other words, when you look on the phone under Settings -> About Phone... you'll see the System Version. As long as that matches the Firmware Version for the file you got from http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=0 you are good and can use RSDLite to downgrade.
Because your bootloader is locked, if they don't match, it will fail to flash.

Whenever i'm installing an app, independently of it's size. After downloading, the phone starts to lag and freeze in a very strange way. Always.

storage allmost full i would check that out first
if it is not sense your not rooted all i can really say is a factory reset i have never herd of anyone having this issue.
Hi Guys,
I am fairly new to the Android system. I have unfortunately accepted the 4.4.2 update so I believe rooting is out of question for now. However, the phone seems to be loosing battery power too fast now after the update and there is a constant "message expired or not available" pop-up message in the lower section of the screen. The phone works well in the safe mode. So I assume there was something wrong with the update.
I feel like it would be good to update again to a clean version of rom, debloated of the ATT stuff, I just want the phone to work well and I do use the S-apps from samsung so I want those. How do I do it?
Thanks!

I am thinking of buying a used Atrix HD as a backup. If I don't have it activated with a provider, will it get the KK update OTA or will I have to install it manually?

EDIT:
Read it wrong, I believe you will still receive update without cell service. before updating it'll ask you that it is recommended to use wifi.
So I'm planning to root my X for the first time and I'm on stock 5.1.
As long as I remain on stock the moto features do not get affected right?
Also, if I am on stock rom but rooted, will it affect any future OTA?

The stock features remain unchanged after root.
You can't take an ota with root. You have to be 100% stock for updates to work.

Its worth noting that you can just fastboot flash the system prior to taking an OTA to allow it. No need for a full factory reset or anything.

There you go. 100th thanks
Also, how do I check the status of my bootloader? I've got a pure edition. Pardon me for the stupid question but I've never used a device other than a Samsung which were pretty straight forward to root.
If by any chance I need to come back to stock rom what would the steps for that be?

1) Power off phone; 2) Tap and briefly hold Power and Volume Down. The bootloader version will show at the top of the next screen.

Another picture
are you flashing files for 4.4? If you were on 5.1 then you should try files for 5.1.
And forget about 4.4. for now. You need to flash 5.1 and only after your phone will boot, then look for guide to downgrade.
you many need to flash the stock recovery (from 5.1) first, as your bootloader appears to be LOCKED now. after then, try flashing the stock 5.1 files. if successful, then you can unlock again via sunshine, flash TWRP recovery, then try to upgrade to 6.0. I'm pretty certain you should not try to downgrade, as that tends to cause problems.
Thanks
Just I'm downloading 5.1
