does anyone have any idea how to update a testing version of moto x to the latest update? every time i check for updates it says there are none available. it is an xt1053 with a kernel from june
If the bootloader is unlocked download one of the other firmware packages then upgrade
^ do you think I could do that in the stock recovery?
and point me in the right direction to download that?

How did you end up with a "testing version" of the software?
Anyways - I imagine that if you flashed the original firmware that you would probably be able to check for an update and receive it. But I could be completely wrong and you could wreck your phone trying (standard disclaimer). This link might help you...

The video tutorial I linked you to gives step by step instructions of how to do what you want to do. They even have a link to the files you mentioned. Did you look at the tutorial?
If it helps the xt1053 is the T-Mobile model. You could try flashing the T-Mobile firmware or unlock the bootloader to flash other versions.

You should have never attempted to downgrade. It is posted literally all over these forums to not attempt this. There is no 4.4.4 FXZ for any of the XT1052 variants yet. You can try some methods, but they all have risk. The only safe way to recover is to wait for the 4.4.4 FXZ to be released, but there's no telling when that will happen.
Some have had success by skipping the "flash partition gpt.bin" command, but if you do this you are at risk of bricking when you take the update back to 4.4.4. Again, some have been successful, but anyone that tells you it is completely safe is mistaken.
Good Luck :good:

There is no leaked 4.4.4 full SBF yet. In a couple weeks, maybe a month it will probably be released.
As long as you never downgraded from a higher version to the german 4.4.2, you can take the OTA without risk. You will need stock Recovery, no Xposed, and no significant modifications made to /system.
Assuming you are full stock and haven't made modifications, the OTA should install without issue.
We will need more details to properly advise you.

If you used RSDLite and fully flashed the SBF to your phone, or used mfastboot and flashed ALL PARTS to your phone, you are safe to take whatever 4.4.4 OTA is pushed to you.
If you only flashed "parts" and have mixed versions (system.img from one rom, no-hols.bin from another, etc), then you need to be careful.. or if you have one version on your phone and try to downgrade it to a lower version.
As @samwathegreat said, there is no leak of a 4.4.4 SBF yet, (well the Verizon one has but we would not recommend flashing it on anything but a Verizon XT1060 phone)
The guys that maintain http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=0 do a great job FINDING the full SBF files, and posting them as soon as they get their hands on them. But since that site isn't owned, operated or supported by Moto, we have no way of knowing how long it will take for the SBF's to show up.

If you have flashed modem files from a different rom than the rest of your phone, any OTA will likely fail its pre-validation checks.
Mixing parts of two different roms isn't advised. Taking updates can fail, brick your phone, or cause other unexpected results.
Sure, there are one or two who say they've done it and are "fine" but we've seen enough posts to know the next OTA, next time they flash, they will likely encounter issues.
My advice. stay with what you have, and wait for the 4.4.4 SBF for the model/carrier you have, and fully flash it. It is the SAFEST way to go.

my position is to have flashed in manual ALL PART of SBF 4.4.2 en.DE
Need only to reflash the modem from 4.4.2 TMOBILE because the gsm phone doesn't work (no signal)
so I don't make any mix with more roms. only stock en.De (all parts) and the modem from tmobile.
I received the ota update for 4.4.4 retail en.DE ...
do you think it's safe to install, or as you said, await the full firmware 4.4.4 SBF ?
do you know where, eventualy, I can find tmobile modem 4.4.4 to flash ?
if can't find the 4.4.4, the 4.4.2 tmobile modem (that now I use with success ) do you think is good or not to works in 4.4.4 firmware en.DE ?

Thanks for reply Danny

Hello,
I have the same problem. I bought a US Moto X Dev Ed. and flashed the german retail with the instructions from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/development/update-xt1058-to-android-4-4-2-uk-t2628381
Is it right that I should not accept the OTA because I deleted the modem lines?
I flashed all the way back to stock using fastboot and mfastboot to the 1053 4.4.3 firmware. When I tried to install the 4.4.4 OTA, I received the EMMC error. I'm using a 1053 on AT&T. Could it be that I had flashed the AT&T 4.4.4 then going back to 4.4.3 that could be causing the error?

Yes. Downgrade is a no no. Post all details.
I was on stock 4.4.3 and flashed a pre-rooted 4.4.4 AT&T image in TWRP. I had read somewhere that the BL's were the same between the two versions. I didn't like the AT&T version, so I flashed back to 1053 4.4.3. The phone has been working just fine. Now, I can't upgrade to the 1053 4.4.4 OTA update. Should I just wait for the SBF file to become available?

A ROM flash doesn't equal a firmware downgrade. RSD going downward is the problem.
But once on a custom recovery you need to backup your virgin "rom" to save it for any future OTA!

Hi all,
Currently receiving an OTA alert about firmware 22.41.24.en.gb. Anyone know what this is? 5.1? Can't install as I am currently rooted with custom recovery and xposed framework. Is all I need to do to install change to the stock recovery?
I've got this update as well this morning. Also rooted with TWRP. I'm no expert but I would say we need to wait for someone to make an update we can flash from recovery.
What is your model?

Locally I have stock image + ota
I can upload ota but for apply it you have to use everything stock
I removed root via super su app menu and reflashed the stock recovery.img before accepting the upgrade.
Then once the update installed ok I put TWRP and root back on the device.

Now that you have ota installed, can you tell me your system version and build number? I have 22.21.28.thea_reteuall.en.EU retfr system version and LXB22.46-28 build number and I didn't receive any OTA upgrade notice. I have not done any mod (root, custom recovery...) to stock
OTA Fails
Damn, even after full unroot and flashing back the stock recovery the OTA fails... And I can't really read why.
Except for root, I installed system settings Tasker plugin and converted it into a system app as well as froze some CN bloatware apps with TB. I will now reflash twrp and reroot and first try to unfreeze and as a last step uninstall the Tasker plugin.
If anybody has some solid experience, please share and maybe save me some time.
Thanks!
UPDATE: Alright, that all didn't work. I realized that the tasker plugin does not copy anything to the system, but I had a Helper app from PinTasker there which I deleted. And I unfroze all the apps and did a full unroot, but still no luck. I don't know what to do anymore now except for going full back to stock (no gapps), but I would rather avoid that if possible.
Still, glad for any input on this matter!
Thanks

Hi, is it possible to flash the stock retgb firmware (on locked bootloader) if the phone came with the retde firmware? Since they are exactly the same model (xt1072) and both firmwares are digitally signed by motorola.
I ask cause the retde hasn't received this ota update yet, and if I switched it to the retgb i could get the ota update right away for the newer modem and bootloader before i unlocked and got cm.
Thx
