[Q] Am I the only one without 4.4.4? - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I thought the retail US moto g was suppose to get android 4.4.4 but I never got it. I am still on 4.4.3 and when I check for updates nothing comes up. Did everyone else get it?

Rollout for 4.4.4 was delayed due to some unknown issue (legal?) specific to US. I expect Retail US XT1032 and XT1034 will get their OTA update in the next week.

That's surprising. I was looking for that information, I suppose I am in the same scenario (see attached snapshot)?

So I'm not the only one...

No you are not. At this point I do not think we will get a 4.4.4 update. I bet it gets skipped. I've been waiting patiently for awhile now for a update because for some reason the 4.4.3 update killed my battery performance. I haven't been using my moto g as much because of this. I was hoping the 4.4.4 update would help with my battery. It's a shame we are all waiting on motorola to release another update.

My battery is working normally, but I'm really expected for the Android L update, 4.4.4 is just a "minor" update, I think.

Just got the update yesterday.

Anyone has got 4.4.4 update in Middle East?

Wondering if someone in Middle East countries has got the 4.4.4 OTA since till now I have got nothing on my Moto G
EDIT: My bad mods. I'm used to posting in Generals
i have Moto G GPE and receive 4.4.4 update
GPE version always get faster than Stock, because Motorola Team works on some extra few improvements.
I am in Austria, and i haven't received any update yet, so just be patient
It shouldn't take long.

4.4.3 came to the US variant well before the Moto G GPE got an update so it is not always the case.

GPE always gets it first. Rarely this incident happens

Clearly that GPE doesn't always get it first. GPE didn't get 4.4.3 before the regular US Moto G did.

you don't want 4.4.3 and they stopped it anyway, 4.4.4 has not been rolled out in the uk yet as far as i can tell from these forums.

It's far more complicated than that.For the moment the UK Moto Gs are still on 4.4.2 (which is actually a good thing).
Even if it comes out these days, I won't be updating, until the don't release a bugfix to patch all the issues with 4.4.4

Can tell you only few that I find significant. But the full list is quite extensive.
OTG doesn't work at all.
The proximity sensor gets stuck/ doesn't react while incall.
Loss of Wi-Fi and 3G signal for no reason.
Your device emmc gets re-petitioned and may get bricked.
Some poorly written, but useful apps doesn't run
Miracast doesn't work from time to time.
The vast majority of issues are due to upgrading via OTA update. I've Fastboot flashed the 4.4.3 US firmware image and had none of these problems.

In which sense bud? I mean, when i flashed ota for kk over jb i haven't had any problem. Do you mean in this sense?
I'm only suggesting if people are having issues; download the full firmware, wipe phone and flash via fastboot.

umm ok.. problem that atm the only 443 complete firmware is the US i think. We need to wait...
True. But that image does work perfectly fine on a UK / EU XT1032.

So, XT1034 has been forgot?

Is it the only type of moto g that has not received 4.4.4 OTA?
Now i'm afraid if i can get stock android L months later.
new moto g2 is too big to hand on.
Don't feel bad us XT1031 users have been un loved and still stuck on 4.4.2 :/

I'm glad someone posted this. I was beginning to wonder if it was just my phone not getting the update. I think it's beyond ridiculous that we have got the 4.4.4 update. At this point I don't think we will.

Xt1032 US still on 4.4.3
And do not worry about L update. You can watch this http://youtu.be/v1ne0Li7hvs . On 20:50 there is a question about L update. The man said that 1st gen of moto G and X will get L as well. I think that is the reason why 4.4.4 can be delayed for some versions of G.
As already mentioned, US 4.4.4 has been delayed on most US variants of Moto G, however Boost and LTE started getting the FOTA Update in the last two weeks.
If you are tired of waiting there are other options:

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.

OTA Lollipop update

Hello,
I have just bought this phone and I am curious how much I have to wait until I get the 5.0 update request. Now I am using 4.4.4
Thank you.
Well mine is about week or two old now. And im also on 4..4.4 Im not sure what's the reason wh'y its not updating. Seems like everyone with new nexus 5 have this problem. We just have to wait i guess.
If nothing will change i will probably unlock bootloader next year and update it manually. Then again looks like there are huge battery life problems on lollipop. It might be better to stay on 4.4.4
Same case here. I bought a new Nexus on the 13th of December. After turning on the phone for the first time, I received a couple of OTA updates until 4.4.4. But I haven't received yet the lollipop OTA update request.
Finally I decided to manually load the OTA by following the tutorial here:
http://www.talkandroid.com/guides/b...on-your-nexus-device-download-links-included/
After my phone was manually updated to 5.0, I automatically received the OTA for 5.0.1

Same here, bought my nexus 5 two weeks ago. My nexus 4 already running 5.0.1 but the nexus 5 still 4.4.4. Maybe it's for the better given the nexus 5 lollipop issues. Probably jump straight to 5.0.2
