a few weeks after the Nexus. I read somewhere that the Moto software team wants to get the update out before the Nexus 5, so maybe we'll see it a week or two after L is released (in the Fall)
When's the exact release date for L

Latest rumors are early November for the first phones getting the update: Nexus 5, etc.
My guess is the pure edition will be fast - a few weeks at most.
Verizon/AT&T will probably be 3-4 months. I think that's what they averaged for the big updates on the 2013 X.

I agree. That coincides with my experience.
yep, rumor has it L will be on the 25th of October, which means pure will have it the first week of Nevember, ATT/VZW will finally approve it and release it the following June lol

I wouldn't count out Verizon on updates for the X. Yes on most phones they suck but last year on the X they were pretty fast.
The Verizon x was the first out of the gate for kk..before the actual release of kk on the n5
Moto has been very quick with updates for the X line. Hopefully they will continue.

I didn't get the feeling that would be a true Nexus. You know how Motorola is with their bootloaders.

Only an idiot would doubt that google will make their own phones through Motorola. Its more a matter of when then if.
Its not going to be a nexus I believe it will be branded as the droid RAZR X and will be realesed with 4.2.2 in q1.Google should have 4.2.2 by then.
I'm just skeptical about it being a real 'nexus' device because hasn't every Motorola phone been only sold by Verizon? Idk if moto and Verizon have a contract but since Google owns Motorola anyone would assume they would make their devices but idk

No, Motorola has sold phones on other carriers. For example, I owned a Motorola Photon on Sprint myself.
However, I think this whole rumor is around some "X" phone by Google and Motorola that _won't_ be a Nexus and _will_ be carried exclusively by Verizon. I'll see if I can find a link...
This has nothing to do with the Nexus 4 and since a lot of users still haven't even received theirs yet, we are long way from discussing this phone's successor in here.
I've already moved one of these to Android General if you would like to continue the discussion there.

I ordered my Moto X on Saturday through moto maker. Its a Verizon retail version. Any idea if 4.4 will come on it? If I don't have 4.4 is there anything I should do before accepting the update? My understanding is the the bootloader on the VZW Moto X retail version has not been unlocked by anyone yet. I am interested in obtaining an unlocked boot loader and root if possible if only for options down the road. I have been seeing tools like RockMyMoto or something on here...what are those all about. These options seem a lot different from what I am used to on my nexus, could really use a brief introduction to my new device. If I am missing a key topic, a link would be super cool.
Thanks!

i just received my verizon phone today and come with 4.2 so you can still using rockmymoto in case that you want to root
It's supposed to be on the path to 4.4 however I wouldn't expect it until early next year but I might be wrong but that's when vzw releases big updates it seems.

Just got mine today. 4.4 was not installed but it started the download on its own. I didn't realize it until it had already downloaded.

Someone has been living under a rock
Verizon released it earlier this week, and tmobile released it today.
I was doing some research on the processors of the Moto X and discovered that it is using two of Texas Instruments' processors. As we all found out when 4.4 was released, the Galaxy Nexus ceased to receive support as it as well used a TI processor. And now that TI is quickly leaving the mobile business, are we to expect the Moto X to lose update support as well?
TI left the SoC industry, they didn't leave chip making entirely. Qualcomm makes the SoC, TI makes co-processors that help the SoC. There shouldn't be any issues getting further updates, provided VZW/Moto/Google approve them.
Exactly, this is too far of a reach. My guess is that the the moto x gets updates for 18 months like the galaxy nexus.
Personally I think Google should extend there updates to 18 months after the phone is sold not from when it came out, but that is there policy.

As "imnuts" indicated, the TI chips in the Moto X are still in active production. Regardless, the Galaxy Nexus was retired for Google's reasons, not TI's.

imnuts, I remember you from another XDA board, I don't remember which phone it was for though lol.
Anyhow, do you have the Moto X? If so, what do you think of it? I have the Note 3 right now and I'm considering the Moto X with the $150 promo code I got on Wednesday.

I just got the moto x and love it so far, but as far as the update thing goes I think since most carriers only let you upgrade every 24 months that Google should continue update until 24 months after the phone stops being sold through retail or upgrade options! My opinion of course but if I bought a phone 18 months after it came out hum mm you know Verizon then they should support that device longer! My phone may be 18 months on shelf but I only just got it! Again my opinion!

I was going to originally get the note 3.however I saw that Motorola was doing a promotion. Now I'm expecting my custom moto x to come in on Tuesday.
And why does it take so long?

it depends. The updates for the X seem to be rotating as to which carrier gets it first. The one Update, Verizon was first. Another Sprint was first. This one T-Mobile/GSM Unlocked is first.
But there is no "set amount of time"
Since they sell these phone for free with contact... We might not ever get an update from att...

There is already a topic regarding this, why create another?
I just am not getting the excitement here, what will 4.4.4 do seriously?
I think Motorola just tried to be smart by announcing it ages before actual release. So that people will bless their p***y for being 'so fast' on updates. I am greatly annoyed by this.
Update takes time to rollout they update according to serial numbers in batches.

Looks like your sources were wrong. 3 Tuesdays have come & gone since the announcement on 7th July.
Also "second Tuesday of next week"?? [emoji57]
The 4.4.4 update is available in Mexico and there is a firmware available to flash, take a look: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/development/update-moto-x-mexico-to-4-4-4-vzn-firm-t2828190
