No I'm afraid not. That only works if your 4.4 or lower. As of 4.4.2 it doesn't work anymore.
And you can not downgrade without a great risk of bricking.

Well then we have to wait a new exploit that allows to root.
Thanks for your answer!

SBF.DroidDevs Is Gone!!!
Hello all,
I've been trying to get my 2013 VZW Moto X back to stock, but I don't have access to the SBF, since Droid-Dev's is down or something. I know there is a post on XDA about the Developer Edition of the Moto X 2013, but I have the consumer model. Any idea where I can get the 4.4.4 SBF?

question about rooting Sprint Moto X running 4.4.4
I've got a Sprint Motorola X running 4.4.4 with a previously unlocked bootloader from having rooted it on 4.2.2 way back when. I lost root with the update but kept the unlocked bootloader. Will the Moto X Toolkit work for me?

Return to Stock not downloading files
When I try to do Return to Stock, then choose my carrier (Verizon), then choose to download and install any of the stock images, I get a 404 error when trying to download the stock .zip file.
Pasting the address (I cannot past it here, but it links to the VZW_XT1060_4.4.4-KXA21.12-L1.26_CFC_1FF.xml.zip file on droid-developers.org) into a web browser also gives me the same File Not Found error.
Has the file moved or is something else going wrong?

I haven't looked at the toolkit in some time, if there isn't a menu option to "Root with unlocked bootloader" then there should be an option to flash TWRP Recovery (since the release notes for Toolkit 1.4.4 says "Updated TWRP to 2.8.1.0")
Once you've successfully flashed TWRP, reboot the phone into it, it should ask if you want too root.
Other option is to not use the toolkit and see -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...-instructions-unlocking-t2649738/post54796193

Try the file factory link and find the firmware for your model and Android version.... Don't downgrade.... Then you can flash the files individually.

Alright, I was reading through that, and it looks as if I can flash 4.4.4 without unrooting or anything like that (right now I'm on 4.4.2), because the firmware is available on file factory. Is there any prerequisites I need to take before flashing? I have an unlocked bootloader if that means anything in this situation....

return to stock with nandroid backup
I am currently using cm12 5.0.2 rom on my sprint moto x . I have a nandroid backup with stock 4.4.4 rom. my question is can I restore the nandroid backup without any problem?
Also I have to unroot and then lock the bootloader kindly tell me how to do that please.

Help Updating Verizon Moto X Developer Edition
All,
I have the Verizon Moto X Developer Edition. I originally bought it since I chose to pay full price, to maintain my unlimited Data. I also like rooting my device for certain operations, and I was willing to pay a little extra for the warranty to cover this activity.
I unlocked my bootloader and I rooted my device. I originally backed up my system, but never used TWRP, since I was happy with the mostly stock debloated ROM. I did use the Root to enable free Native WiFi hotspot.
Since the root and unlock, I have not received any system updates, and I'm stuck at Android 4.4. I have a Nexus 7 (2013) tablet, and I enjoy many of the newer features of Android.
I have seen Droid-life posts that the Moto X mainstream version is on 4.4.4.
Can anyone explain how to update my Developer Edition to 4.4.4 or later while maintaining Root and my Hotspot workaround? To be honest, I stopped tracking it, and don't even know what the latest version is for the mainstream Gen 1 Moto X. I have read some reports that show (Non-Developer versions) updating to the latest ROM wipes the Root, and they cannot get it back. And I am also under the impression that the mainstream image update is not compatible with my phone.
I used to tinker with several different ROMs all the time with my previous two phones, but I'm a little rusty. It has been 18 months since I bothered, as most of the functionality I need is reliable at this point. Yes, I realize that implies I probably don't need to tinker, but I'm considering it, pending the above information.
The one critical requirement is that I do use my phone as the hotspot, and enabling on my current plan required root access, or no-root, and an additional $30/month. I kind of like that feature. I used this method.

[Q] Can I take OTA to 4.4.4 and maintain root?

I have the 2013 model of the MotoX and its XT1058 version. I am currently on KitKat 4.4.2 and it's rooted. I was wondering if I will lose root if I take the OTA update to 4.4.4 and if that is so, is there a way to keep the root on 4.4.4. Thanks!

I second this. Same situation as you (Verizon model) and would like to go 4.4.4 and keep my root.

If your bootloader is unlocked, yes, you can keep root, though you will need to the reflash supersu.zip (or have twrp automagically do it). Otherwise, no. There is no root available for unlocked 4.4.4. If you don't have an unlocked bootloader, check out the Sunshine thread in the general section.
Is your X an ATT XT1058? If not, you should be able to unlock for free through Moto (there are a number of threads around on doing so). For you @EpicBlob, since you are using a Verizon XT1060, if it isn't the Dev Edition, Sunshine is your only option now and is $25 to use.

Kind of, if root is hidden via superSU you can take the ota & then use sunshine. But why risk it.

As I recall, you can keep root but you will loose write access to system. This means if you use root to modify anything, it wont stick after a reboot. I would advise against it unless you have an unlocked bootloader.

If you have a custom recovery, you need to flash your stock recovery first also. ?

You didn't mention you had an unlocked bootloader.
If it were me, I would RSD back to stock 4.4, take the OTA's to 4.4.4, flash recovery, flash root. (Only if you have an unlocked bootloader of course. )

I would just find the 4.4.4 AT&T sbf/fxz and flash it manually instead of taking OTAs.

Sorry I'm joining late... But...
If your bootloader is LOCKED (Standard on the ATT XT1058, and Verizon XT1060), then do not upgrade to 4.4.4. You will lose Root. The vulnerabilities exploited by Pie and Towel have been patched in 4.4.4, and you will not be able to re-root.
However, If while on 4.4.2 or lower you have unlocked your bootloader by either using Sunshine, or purchasing an Unlock Code from the China Middle man when available (the only two options to unlock the bootloader on the ATT XT1058 and Verizon XT1060 non-developer edition), you will likely lose root taking the update, but can re-root after 4.4.4 is on your phone.
To take OTA, you need stock recovery on your phone, and to be as close to stock as possible (so the OTA's preflash validation check doesn't fail). After the OTA is installed, flash TWRP, reboot-bootloader and enter TWRP.
The other option is to download the 4.4.4 SBF from one of the sites listed in -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/info-tip-web-sites-official-leaked-roms-t2923347 and flash your phone with it via RSDLite or mFastboot. After flashing, use mFastboot to flash TWRP recovery, reboot-bootloader, then enter TWRP.

I don't know exactly what ROM is on a Brasilian XT1058.
On you phone, go App Drawer -> Settings... Make note of what is listed under System Version, Android Version, and build number.
That is what to look for when you are searching for the Stock SBF for your phone. The file name will usually contain parts or all of that info, and possibly the carrier name, or acronym for the carrier name (Verizon might be VZW, Rogers Canada might be RCI, etc)
This is important because if you have a locked bootloader, you can't for example flash an XT1058 from AT&T USA (locked bootloader), with the SBF for an XT1058 from Rogers Canada.

Right, you have an XT1058 from Rogers Canada... Notice the RCI in the system version (which I also mentioned in my post as a possible acronym)
No offense, but your posts come across as if you are not willing to do anything but ask "tell me how to do this".
I would have a different attitude if you showed me that you took the time to read and try to understand what has been posted.
For example, I KNOW the correct XT1058 RCI CA 4.4.4 SBF is out there on the file factory link, and it has XT1058, RCI CA, 4.4.4 and that system number in its name! but YOU have to take the time to look, IT IS YOUR PHONE.
But no, its been "do it for me."
I have a life. Helping people on these forums is a HOBBY, not a job. I don't have the time to spoon feed each individual. That is why there are guides written (which I gave you links to).
If you can't figure this out, maybe you should play it safe and skip trying to flash your phone. And if you haven't factory reset your phone yet, try that as a first step.

sorry!

It took me all of 15 seconds to use the link in my signature to the thread with SBF ROM sites, then click the FileFactory site, and find a listing for XT1058_RCI-CA_4.4.4_KXA21.12-L1.26_59_cid14_CFC_1FF.xml.zip

Download the correct firmware from here: http://www.filefactory.com/folder/dd05c058d3ff8dbe/?sort=created&order=DESC&show=100&page=1
Here you have the XT1058 AT&T 4.4.4 version for example: http://www.filefactory.com/file/48ofsvh148j7/ATT_XT1058_4.4.4-KXA21.12-L1.26_CFC_1FF.xml.zip
Here is a good how-to: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/guide-moto-x-return-to-100-stock-using-t2446515
Make sure you only flash a version that has the same or newer bootloader version! Downgrading can/will brick your device.
Just look up your bootloader version:
30.70 = original 4.2.2
30.71 = 4.2.2 OTA with camera update
30.B2 = 4.4
30.B4 = 4.4.2
30.B7 = 4.4.4
Meaning if you have 30.B7 for example, flashing 4.4.2 is a big no-no

It depends on which model you have. If you have a model with an unlockable bootloader, you can just re-root when you're done in the same way as you did initially. If you used an exploit on a locked (AT&T/Verizon/Republic) model to get root, it's pretty much guaranteed that you won't be able to get root after the update, and I wouldn't count on another exploit showing up anytime soon, if ever.

You can flash OTA updates while rooted, as long as nothing else is modified or missing from /system and you don't have custom recovery. The update won't remove the su binary either, but permissions will be messed up so it will seem like you're unrooted after you restart.

[Q] Moto X (2014) XT 1092 back to kitkat

Hi, I have a unrooted 1092 where I applied the OTA to 5.0.
I have found lolipop to be a dissapointment and want to go back to kitkat. Is there a way to do this? My phone has a locked bootloader (i have not unlocked it) and I have been unable to find a factory image for this model.
The current system version is 22.21.19.victara_reteu.reteuall.en.EU retin

Hey Ivar,
You've got 2 choices; use mfastboot to revert back to KitKat. So you must unlock your bootloader. Or try motorola's RSD Lite tool..
I recommend making a full nandroid back up before attempting anything.

If you need any help, let me know! Good luck !
Btw, Motorola stock rom's are called SBF's ( system binary file )
