[Q] XT1064 Questions about Lollipop - G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

To start off I have a brand new unlocked Moto G 2014 (US Version). I am looking to update to Lollipop but am rather confused about its current status. I have yet to recieve an OTA for Lollipop as of currently. Is Lollipop out to the public for XT1064 devices? I do not care for OTA versions, so if it has been released for it is there a flashable version? I have basic experience with flashing and have flashed Lollipop to my Nexus 7 succesfully. I see version numbers thrown around, for instance: "21.21.25" followed by other device info. My Moto G is currently running "21.11.23.titan_retuaws.retuaws.en.US retus". As a final question is Lollipop currently rootable for the XT1064 devices and how is it done? I see programs like SuperSU thrown around aswell but don't understand how these are used (I do understand what SU and SUDO are though).
Thanks in advance.

Nvm I have found it.

Nice

[Q] MotoX 1053 move from Tmo to Att and KK updates?

so this question got me escalate to moto level 3 support - i have a 1053 dev edition unlocked/rooted that was used on tmo for about 8 months, got the ota 4.4.3 from them no prob. now switched carriers and the sim swap went fine and the coverage in my area is much better, but i'm afraid that the upgrade path is muddled.
i can't get the 4.4.4 ota from att, and cant find the zip anywhere. i reinstalled stock recovery, still no go. my hypothesis is that the att won't see my phone as eligible for ota since it is not a version 4.4.2 that it's designed to upgrade. or, maybe i'm a total noob and don't know wtf i'm saying. a lil help? ideas? things to try? i'm at a loss....
The xt1053 does not have 4.4.4 yet. You're fine, you just need to keep waiting.

OTAs aren't released by the carrier, they are specific to the phone model. In your case, the XT1053. As AGISCI said, 4.4.4 isn't available for the 1053 yet. Also, the difference between 4.4.3 and 4.4.4 is very small, mostly just a good for a bug.
i have no problem waiting as a former gnex/vzw person...
...but i just wanted to make sure i didn't paint myself in a corner and be forever on 4.4.3 - i'll keep looking to moto for the eventual update. Thanks for the reply
Nope, you're up to date. We'll see if they even bother with the 4.4.4 update, or whether they just skip it when android L is released with the new nexus (also reported to be made by moto).

Its because the 5.0.1 and 5.0 updates were for an earlier version of kitkat. No way to manually update or no ota yet. Must wait it out because there is not a great was to downgrade firmware

I use the first link to flash but downloaded loaded Blur_Version.21.11.17.titan_retuaws.retuaws.en.US or Retail version someone uploaded because Moto link has not worked since 12/12/14, from the second link .

Moto x 2014 xt1097 lollipop

Hi there,
Quick questions for you geeks out there. I have a Moto X with Brazilian lollipop image on it (final soak test image) which i installed based on another thread here.
Since i wasn't on the Soak test list and since this is the same version as the official roll out which started few days ago, will i now get updates OTA ? or do i need to downgrade again to KitKat and upgrade through OTA again? i also read somewhere that i can not downgrade back to Kitkat since i don't have an unlocked bootloader.......help is much appreciated.
thanks

Motorola and Verizon have stated that they will not update the XT1096 to MM or 6.x so there is no "official" Marshmallow firmware from Motorola for this phone.
You can find an 99% stock MM ROM here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/development/rom-xt1096-verizon-flashable-stock-rom-t3327345. Please read the full thread and ask questions there about this ROM. Some people - including me - are using it as their daily driver with little to no issues. This ROM has all the Motorola apps (Voice, Display, etc.) working as expected from a stock ROM.
Another option CM13. Read this thread :http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/orig-development/rom-official-cm-13-0-nightly-releases-t3256580/post65781867#post65781867. CM13 works on the XT1096 and other CM13-based ROMs should work but you will need to verify by reading their threads. Please be sure to read the full thread and ask questions there about CM13 or in the other threads related to other ROMs.
This is assuming that you are on the Verizon network and want to keep CDMA functionality. If you are using this phone on a GSM network and do not care to keep the CDMA access then you might want to look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/general/guide-xt1097-to-xt1095-nextel-t2972693
All of the options above require that you have an unlocked bootloader. If your bootloader is locked please go here to learn about unlocking it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/general/motorola-unlocking-verizon-moto-x-2014-t3291104
Please read and learn as much as you can. Most - if not all - of your questions will be answered by reading through the threads listed.
XT1085
Hello everyone,
I'm currently using the moto X 2nd generation bought in china (XT1085) running android 5.0.2.
I would like to get rid of the retcn version of the system because I don't speak chinese for a retEU or retUS and install android 6 MM. Is it possible?
My phone is rooted and TWRP recovery installed
I tried to install this version : Version 6, because one guy wrote on the topic that it worked on TX1085 but it failed for me, and my phone stayed on the Motorola launching screen.
So now I'm back with the factory setup and would like to now how to install android 6.0?
Thanks

Easiest way to unroot and install kitkat custom rom on stock locked motoX 2014 6.0

Hi,
As per title, what is the most up to date and easiest way to unroot and install a kitkat custom rom on a locked motoX 2nd gen (2014) with marshmallow 6.0?
My 2 years warranty is running out and am fedup with marshmallow. I'd like to go back to kitkat.
By the way what kitkat rom would you recommend?
Many thanks
Luca
done with issues
I did this from moto x 2014 xt1097 to xt1095 KitKat 4.4.4.
only issue is cellular stuck in radio mode so cant make calls or use data. hopefully can figure that out soon. I think I just need to find Canadian versions of modem files (for bell?).
only issue I cant remember how I did it!!!
83 hours on a next to bricked moto x 2014 and I was in "i don't care anymore mode" and was just downloading and flashing random stuff. give me a few days to figure out what I did so I know who to give thanks and credit to before I start linking other developers work.
Thanks, never mind I found what I want in a custom 6.0.1 ROM.
Best of luck with your smartphone
