Verizon 4.4.3 or 4.4.4 update.zip

Maybe a dumb question, but is there a place to get the 4.4.3 or 4.4.4 update.zip files for my Verizon moto x dev edition?

Verizon didn't drop a 4.4.3 update because there was an SSL security flaw that google found, fixed and quiclkly released 4.4.4.
That being said, Verizon hasn't dropped 4.4.4 yet. They usually drop at least a month and usually longer after everyone else because they have to add all of their bloatware and test it first.

"Kit Kat" refers to 4.4, 4.4.2, 4.4.3, and now 4.4.4
I'm not understanding what was incorrect about @dlumberg 's post...
Edit: or did you mean that Verizon was the first carrier to receive 4.4? I believe that is correct (they weren't behind the other carriers on that release).

Verizon was also one of the first to roll out 4.4.2 as well. Motorola is the only OEM that has timely updates on Big Red, not sure why.

The Soak test has started, can people check if update is available for Verizon Moto X and grab the zip if you got it available? If you guys do get it can you root, then use root explorer to check for the OTA zip?

I haven't received any soak test emails. Also the Verizon soak test usually begins at the same time they roll it out to everyone. No advanced launch.
But I did install ota snatcher so if it comes my way I'll share it.

Flashed 4.4.2 sbf over 4.4.4

My bootloader is unlocked. My stock rom was messed up with system modifications and I tried to go back to pure stock. So i tried flashing 4.4.2 sbf file but i am already on 4.4.4. I didn't know that before that you cannot downgrade from 4.4.2 or higher.
The thing is I run the following commands
Code:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
i didn't run the subsequent commands
and tried rebooting phone immediately
the phone is working fine as such(system modifications are still present and i want to get rid of them).
I read somewhere that if you try to downgrade you may/will brick your device. And also of a guy who did something like this (downgraded from 4.4.2 to 4.2.2 and it was working fine until he took an OTA, that OTA bricked his device)
Are there any chances of me bricking my device?

Your system shows 4.4.2 now? If so, yes....taking an OTA will very likely brick you. And those ones are much harder, or impossible to fix.

So why not flash the 4.4.4 sbf using RSDLite?

You'll be eventually able to flash L manually too.
But as long as you are confident you've never downgraded your bootloader version...you'll be fine. If you have, or are unsure....best not to OTA.

Is there anyway to know if my bootloader is downgraded?
In my settings build number remains unchanged. Do this confirm that my bootloader is not downgraded?
And even if its downgraded can I manually flash Android L sbf?
Thank You very much.

I'm in a similar situation as op. reason why i don't do what you say is: there is no official 4.4.4 image from Motorola. and i have no idea where rdslite came from nor its source code.
what i did is email Motorola support repeatedly for an official 4.4.3 and 4.4.4 images because they sold us developer devices and promised support. it's ridiculous that they only offer 4.4.2 to download for restore.

and please. for all that is holy, everyone minimally interested in this, move your ass and also email them!
i went via the site, logged in with the same account i used to purchase directly from them. i got an automated response from the email
[email protected]
saying "Your question has been received. You should expect a response from us within 24 hours." because i also believe in Santa Claus.
here's the message in using. feel free to reuse to spam them.
I have the developer edition.
I need to flash the original system image to re lock the boot loader.
but since my phone was sold to me on android 4.4.3 (or I accepted a OTA update from Motorola as soon as I received it) I cannot use the old android 4.4.2 system image you provide.
since Motorola is already even providing updates to 4.4.4 I demand at least the 4.4.3 to be made available. if not the 4.4.4
thank you,

Nexus 6 stuck in 7.0 but getting montly patches

My N6 is still waiting 7.1.1 OTA, surprisingly, security patches come on schedule, but almost three months after release, OTA is not coming. Yes, I know I can sideload it, but one of the reasons I decided not to root it was not losing the ability of OTA updates.... any hint?
Thanks.

You can flash the stock rom and you will receive OTA . Unlocking bootloader dosen't mean root.
You WILL receive OTA updates just do as follows
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Flash latest fastboot images
3. Lock bootloader - optional.
Make sure you don't keep TWRP recovery. It isn't that good for installing OTA packages via system update.
Please follow the guides if you don't know how to do them. Download the latest one named 7.1.1
Press thanks if i helped

@Pocket_rocket Just a warning though... Unlocking your bootloader will wipe your device.
Use the full OTA image instead. I believe there's no need for an unlocked bootloader then.
https://developers.google.com/android/ota
Edit: a word of caution... If you decide to sideload the OTA, it's not a bad idea to keep your bootloader unlocked. If anything goes wrong along the way, you can then fix it.
And about the update issue. Are you on AT&T? They haven't approved 7.1.1 yet...
Edit 2 (I just woke up, gimme a break ): If you use Android Pay or anything else dependent on SafetyNet, you can't keep your bootloader unlocked (without further tinkering) since that triggers SN.

Hi Didgeridoohan, Mine is now NBD92D (AT&T version and update thru OTA) but I don't see any AT&T logo on the back and my city(HK) does not have any AT&T service. Do you have any idea on this(Actually my Nexus 6 is from Australia).
In addition, if I keep sideload the OTA image N6F26U will cause any problem(except the Android Pay)? As you mention that Google does not approve any 7.1.1 AT&T version(Just tried to sideload N6F26U, it said can't install over a newer version).
Thanks so much in advance.

No. I'm on Vodafone (Spain) but I purchased this phone right on Amazon, so no pesky carrier should be acting as a man in the middle, I guess...
I mean, the phone runs decently well, but, given the fact that 7.1.1 will be the last update for this model, I want it. I wonder if is just a matter of patience or there is some other issue that is preventing my phone to get the OTA.
Thanks.

I have the same issue, m on NBD92D, which seems to ATT only, but there's no AT&T in India. I tried sideloading N6F26U, but it didn't work. Any idea how I can get 7.1, apart from waiting?

Android pie note 9 unlocked variant

Has anyone received an update of android one ui on the unlocked variant of the note

Which varient you are referring to? For which country?

Unlocked us variant SM-N960U1

We'll more than likely be last to get it. Yes it's unlocked but it still needs be "certified" by each carrier to work on their network.

All the carriers have to certify it? Cause I don't know if the US unlocked version works on Sprint.

Carrier branded and US unlocked have all the same hardware, the only difference is the software.

I don't think the carriers have to certify the update. The unlocked version should only have to be certified by Samsung and then sent OTA.

The unlocked versions are typically late to the upgrade party regardless of the reason unfortunately.

"Unlike other OEMs, Samsung certifies unlocked updates on all four carriers, which leads to delays."

But there's no mention there of what, if anything, is the source of that information.
Also, it doesn't say that the carriers certify the updates. It says Samsung certifies the updates on each carrier.

Yeah looks like I got it glip flopped on the certification.
I'm not saying I'm happy or agree that it should take so long for unlocked versions to get updates, but if there are more certifications required, then it makes sense that it would take longer.
I assume that when Samsung goes to get a device certified on a carrier, that carrier still has to give the green light and say it's good to go.

Wow, this is so annoying, evone is happy with his one ui.

Of course. Why wouldn't you be able to? You're on the latest official build for the U1. When an update is released, it will get pushed to you via OTA. Just like all the other monthly updates you've received.

For Sprint carrier, the unlocked version is supposed to start roll out Feb. 21. This is what was told to me when i contacted support asking why carrier note 9 got the update but mine has not.

The U1 unlocked modules will all get the update at the same time. And since it's pushed by Samsung and not the carriers, I'm not sure I would trust Sprint's word on that.

Still no November Update?

Still have not received the OTA Nov update, went to Dev Images site and I do not see build# ending in A4, see screenshot. Can I manually flash another version, A1/B1...etc?

Yes, I know it should be according to all the reports from last week. Today I looked at the Verizon update site and it was finally posted that it's available as of today and to sync your device or wait for it. Would have been nice to just post the OTA file or system image but I guess they can't do that. So hopefully Google will post it sometime today. That's basically what I was saying. I'm curious if you get the update since you just switched to Verizon after the Nov update.

No, I still have the same November update I had. Over on Reddit some folks are already getting it. I compared my build number to theirs and we have different build numbers. Since I'm getting 5g I'm not sure what I'll miss if anything if I have to wait until December for a Verizon build. I won't know if it would activate 5g uw but I wouldn't know anyway since I don't have a 5g chip.
