Will the 4.4.2 bootloader work with the stock 4.4 recovery?

I think the answer is no, but I wanted to confirm that.

Interesting, thanks!

It looks like the stock recovery in 4.4.2 is identical to the one in 4.4. I flashed the stock recovery img from the 4.4 SBF that I got directly from Motorola. I wrote down the version number showing when I booted into stock recovery. Then I installed the 4.4.2 OTA update, rebooted the phone and went back into stock recovery and the version number was the same as it was when I was on 4.4.

I'm trying to figure out how one actually flashes the stock recovery so that I can complete the update to 4.4.2. You're saying just extract the img from the official firmware zip and then flash it over in 'download' mode or something, right?
ED: Figured it out but thanks anyway!

Can you post the steps on how your figured it out?? Thanks!

im not sure what u are trying to do are you trying to update to 4.4.2
if so find the SBF package and install it with RSD Lite
or find the OTA .zip and install it via stock recovery and it will update.

[Q] XT1095 - Lollipop OTA Update Requirements

I have a Xt1095 PE Moto X. Can anyone clarify that if I have an unlocked bootloader and have rooted my phone if I will indeed receive the OTA for Lollipop and if it will install without issue? I haven't received any system update notifications nor when I check through the settings page, it states that I am up to date with KitKat. I don't mind waiting if I know I will receive it but I am not, I will manually flash it via the guide in the other thread.

Won't work. You have to be on stock. Reflash the factory images. Then sideload the ota. There are a bunch of guides.

Thank you very much sir. I figured this was the case but couldn't find any definitive post.

I think I'm in the same boat. Mine came with the boot loader already unlocked and system rooted. My recovery is stock.
Will this prevent the ota update?

[Q] Updating from 22.21.11 to 23.16.3

I'm having difficulty figuring out how to approach the update. I'm on the XT1095 running 22.21.11.victara_tmo.tmo.en.US, TWRP, and root. The only guides I've seen are supposed to update from 23.11.14.
Is the file here the right file? How do I return to stock properly?

Yes, on that page download the full 5.0 factory image. Then flash it to your phone. After that you will be on stock, unrooted, and factory recovery and can take the OTA. The OTA should appear when you look for updates on your phone after that, no need to sideload, well unless you want to, lol.

[Q] 5.1 update after flashing latest 22.46-11 5.0 images.

I had xposed installed and then the OTA notification came so I wanted to get rid of xposed. I just did a full reset pretty much and downloaded 5.0 22.46-11 from Motorola's website and flashed it. I noticed, however, that they incremented the release key or something from
motorola/victara_tmo/victara:5.0/LXE22.46-11/10:user/release-keys

to
motorola/victara_tmo/victara:5.0/LXE22.46-11/11:user/release-keys

My OTA went away and I cannot sideload any OTA update files because the release keys don't match. Will I still receive the OTA eventually or do I need to try and find an old 22.46-11 image?

If you use the image from Motorola, you won't get OTA. Reflash using graffixNYC 5.0 image,you should get OTA update.

Just got XT1095 with 4.4.4 stock... what next?

Just got a new XT1095 Pure with 4.4.4 pre-loaded. I've already gone through the 'unlocking bootloader' routine from the Moto website. What's next? Should I be taking OTA to 5.1 first or rooting first? Thanks for any help!

OTA first, you can't upgrade if you are rooted.

The 4.4 bootloader is fine with every rom out there. I wouldn't take the OTA since you are unlocked bootloader just flash the stock roms via twrp on the android develop section there is one for 4.4, 5.0, and 5.1. its the best way to not risk hard bricks. I have switched back and forth several times going this route. AGISCI posted them.

I also just got an xt1095, is this the latest ROM http://www.filefactory.com/file/5d66szhobgmx/VICTARA_TMO_XT1095_5.1_LPE23.32-21.6_cid9_CFC.xml.zip ?
Also, I have unlocked my bootloader but didn't root yet (this is with 4.4.4 installed). If i simply DL this image and flash it using TWRP (which i have installed) will it overwrite TWRP or break it in any way? Can I then simply root via TWRP ( assuming it is ok) and boom have a fully rooted Lollipop phone ?

You can't flash firmware files with TWRP, it won't work.
You have to flash it with RSDLite or fastboot.
As far as if it overwrites TWRP. If you use RSDLite, yes it will erase TWRP and replace it with the stock recovery. If you use fastboot to flash just skip the recovery image when you are flashing.

Why? Is this limitation only for stock images or ANY custom ROM too?

Because the firmware files are just standard images which get flashed and overwrite the partitions. The zips you run in TWRP are instructions on what to do and install. They are completely different things/formats.
