[Q] Motorla Razr/Maxx ICS update Middle East

Greetings everyone,
Has anyone in this region (Middle East) System Version 65.1.40.XT910.MERetail.en.06 Build Number 6.5.1-167-SPD-IRD-40 recieve OTA for ICS 4.0.4? All I can find onilne is users in the US CDMA Verizon has pushed for the OTA. I've been checking none stop but it keeps saying its upto date. I got furious when my Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini recieved 4.0.4 and the mighty Razr Maxx is still kickin' on GB.
Please drop a line. Thanks.

no i have not received any upgrade option yet.
UAE RAZR

Honestly, I'd stopped waiting for the update to happen.. i've gone ahead and flashed the retail.eu 4.0.4 version and my phone has been running smoothly.. no issues whatsoever! just go ahead and do it.. u'll find the link on the main xda forum page.. its a little bit of a run-around, but you'll eventually have ICS on ur Razr :fingers-crossed:

Yes it contains Arabic but you'll have to download Arabic keyboard from play store and working great with GSM.

could you make a simple step by step tutorial on how you did it ?
like which retail.eu ROM did u flash ???

It's rediculous. It's October 2012 and the once "Flagship" phone not even a year old, wont update to ICS. I'm not even gonna start on JB. When I called Motorola Kuwait (Axiom) they said the update will never come OTA or any other way to my build number (Middle East version). I refuse to buy the new Motorola Razr HD due to proper support; in that area, Motorola suffers GREATLY! Doesn't make sense to me, doesn't Google own Motorola Mobility? Why are'nt Motorola phones already running Android Vanilla?! It's really frustrating.

[Q] Help on updating Xoom (Just bought now)

Hello. I just bought my motorla xoom. Its a pretty old tablet but i still prefer this than those galaxy tabs.
When i try to update, it says it has the latest version but then in the system it is still 3.2. How do you update this tablet? Is it not allowed yet?
Information on my tablet is:
Model Number:
MZ604
Android Version:
3.2
Firmware configuration version:
GAS_ASIA_HUBBLEWIFIHKTWNGEN_P007
Kernel version:
2.6.36.3-00042-g3c1a41e
[email protected] #1
Build Number
H.6.6-27
I hope someone can help me.. im just new at this..

I just bought mine too. It arrived today actually. It came with version 3.1, and, as soon as I went to software updates under Settings, it updated to version 4.0.4
I believe it depends on which country you are.
Unless you want to GEDify your Xoom (as I will do very very soon), then you will receive always the newest updates directly from Google.
BTW, I'm from Brazil.

It is rolled out to everyone in every country, bot NOT at the same time. One day you will get ICS and then JB...
Gedify comes from GED which stands for “Google Experience Device”. A “Google Experience Device” receives its updates directly from Google, without any customization or modification from the device manufacturer.
This is only possible if you flash the US version of Xoom's rom.
MZ604 here in Brazil, there in Philippines and in the US, is MZ604, so there's no problem doing that.
I'm doing it tomorrow!
BTW, if I helped you, hit the Thanks button!

It's done! And Jelly Bean is freaking amazing!

Hey man, i sent my xoom back since i had some problems with my macro shots.. they dont seem to focus well. and when i try it with flash, i only get white pictures. is that normal?
Can you also send me links on how to root-flash-GEDify xoom? if possible though without unlocking bootloader... thanks man...

Unfortunately I won't be able to help you with this... I rarely take photos... even with my Sony smartphone that has an awesome camera.
But I can take some photos to test and see if this is normal. Then I post here my views.

Rooting your xoom won't be possible without unlocking the bootloader. Unless you search for methods using exploits. But those methods didn't work for me but it might be worth a try. So unlocking the bootloader is the best way to root. It's save, pretty easy and you also have the ability to install a custom Rom later on to get jelly bean (I am currently running the cm10 nightlies)

Can you share your Firmware Version, Kernel Version and Build Number as well? After updating to 4.0.4, did your Xoom still have the "Quickoffice HD" app? What I have read from the forums is that GEDifying your Xoom would loose this app since the US-based Xoom does not have Quickoffice HD buddled with the device.

[Q] XT925 Update 4.4

I would like to know if just XT926 will receive the update kitkat 4.4 or the XT925 will too ?
There is any date?
If i'm not wrong XT926 already received the update, right ?
Changing the subject, the kitkat 4.4.2 has some bugs and them consume a lot of battery, this bugs will be presents in 4.4.2 by motorola ?

The XT925 will receive the update, you just have to wait for your service provider to stop tinkering with it. I'm in Canada with Rogers, I'm still waiting.

I know about it. But I'm using retail version I don't need any provider. Then I need to wait for motorola. I just wanted to know more about the update and your bugs on version 4.4.2

haven't got 4.4.4 yet

hey there, as u can see in title I haven't got 4.4.4 yet i have the 210.12.32.falcon_umts.Retail.en.US version. I live in Ireland, have they stop releasing 4.4.4 now ?

Some guys say that making root the update fails, and your version 4.4.4 was the first to be released

It looks like you have the Global American GSM version of the phone. From what I can tell, they haven't been updated as of today. USA AWS and USA Global GSM Moto G are still running 4.4.3. Only the CDMA versions are running 4.4.4 in the US. Maybe if you flash the European ROM you'll get the 4.4.4 update.

- Bad news American Moto G owners. Motorola is pulling back from the US market and focusing on India, at this point don't be surprised if you never see Android L on your device. I'm still running 4.4.3. I've heard from other Moto G users running 4.4.4 did not fix any of issues previously reported.

What are the issues specifically? XT1034 Retail Canada has had 4.4.4 - I expect US to follow.

I had to shut off my OTA because I really am not ready for 4.4.4. I have the XT1045 and US version, and it is rooted. So I am not sure why some of you who are rooted are not getting the updates. That is very interesting indeed. Does Motorola have a bigger market in India vs anywhere else for them to concentrate on the India upgrades to 4.4.4?

nah I'll stay as I am, maybe its getting to everywhere first before the American gsm, I'm just going to wait, maybe they will stop 4.4.4 update and when android L comes out we can update straight to it first who knows, we shall wait and see

Today i get the 4.4.4 update.
XT1032 Telcel MX
So, I'm guessing that is the Global GSM US, so you'll be able to install the update soon. :highfive:

- Motorola said recently that they are releasing Android L for Moto G (Gen2) devices in India, nothing about first Gen Moto G or Android L outside of India.

Umm weird. I got a notification saying system update so I go to settings>about phone > system updates and it closes straight away. What's going on ?
Current Device : Moto G XT1032

Opps never mind its working now. I can now update to 4.4.4
Current Device : Moto G XT1032

Finally!!!
Finally, we get 4.4.4 after being stuck on 4.4.3 since June, July. I guess they forget about the Global version for a while or they are preparing us for lollipop.

Flashing 5.0 Lollipop

So I flashed the brazillian lollipop OTA on my Indian XT033 and can someone explain to me step by step how I'll be able to flash the Indian Lollipop update when it releases publicly without losing my data?

Why you flashed Brazilian version. It could brick your phone. Motorola is gonna release official android L here in less than a week, i guess.
Anyway, download indian version of stock 4.4.4 and flash it with stock recovery. Relock the bootloader. Latest motorola adb and fastboot drivers should be there before starting this whole process.
Motorola has updated its OTA updater app a couple of days ago. So go to play store and update it to make your phone ready for android lollipop

And in this way you could end up messing your phone.
Once youre on lollipop there's no way as of now to downgrade to KK.
But once the india lollipop update is out someone will figure out a way to install that.Until then enjoy your phone o Brazilian 5.0.
And also I dont find some good reason to install Indian update ovr brazilian one coz there will be no major change.

I guess both are "Asia retail" firmwares?
