Ok soo my phone hasn't got any updates past Android 4.4.2, all the other 1st gen Moto X's got 2 after that. Motorola keeps telling me to contact my carrier but there's a slight problem with that. Alltel was my carrier but they got bought out by at&t so I switched to h2o. My Moto X is carrier unlocked tho, how would that affect system updates?

No update has been push out for my version of the X tho. It makes no since why they tell me to contact my carrier, because mine doesn't, have a carrier logo on the back nor does one come up when you turn it on. The system version says something about acg. I looked at a chart on Motorola's website, under acg regional carriers it says 4.4.4 "coming soon" its really confusing

The z5 forum would have more on it. You need a international ftf finger print files and customize the US one by adding those files than flashing it to your device

It can be done. You can do it yourself follow how they did it in the z5 forums or just flash the international ftf on your phone

Where do I get the FTFs? At this point, what is the disadvantage of getting the International one?

None really that I can think of. The US one might have better radios maybe for signal

So how long before someone figures out flashing the FTFs on the X or X Performance?

Well you can ask someone for the ftfs and then use flash tool. Ask the user who made a kernel for the xp if he has the international ftf

Hmm... So lets say I go with the X (not P), looking here: https://xpericheck.com/device/F5122 will these work on the F5121? Also, which country is the most similar to US but gets fingerprint? Is there really any difference aside from language? If I go this path, how do I get the OTAs?

Probably the UK one.. Maybe br stands for Britain? You can try any of them if they aren't good to back to us one. I'm curious what customized us one is. If it's been customized for finger print enable. But these are all released a month ago? Before the device was out?

This is exactly why I'm asking.... i'm confused. and then how do updates work?

Regional firmwares are available prior to release. Can't use a device without software. If you flash a firmware from another region, you will receive updates that align with that region. Sometimes they are OTA and sometimes they require either PC Companion or Xperia Companion. UK is the abbreviation for Great Britain for firmware region. The customized US firmware will not support fingerprint sensor.

If you are on stock firmware, the system should give you any OTA updates.
Or download this and flash in RSDLite or fastboot.
