[Q] German KitKat Upgrade?

Hi!
I'm from Germany and rooted my device (from amazon, retail). I know that I have to unroot my device to get the Adnroid 4.4 Update - but how can I unroot my device? Factory Reset? Wipe? And by the way - any german moto g have the 4.4 update already? is there an flashable version? and most important: can i root the 4.4 already?
merry xmas!

Hallo Pascal,
Unroot by installing the stock images again: http://theunlockr.com/2013/12/06/unroot-motorola-moto-g/
Nope, no German handsets have the update yet, US customers getting it first and even there the rollout is slow. Expect it in January as OTA or see next point:
Flashable version should be up in a few hours, there was a system dump and upload of the OTA, the devs are working on it. In this case, no need to unroot, just wait for the flashable version.
The root methods from 4.3 didn't seem to work, but you can flash SuperSU or Superuser from a custom recovery after flashing the OTA when it's available.
Merry Christmas to you, too!

Opps, reading too fast, understanding too slow - deleted

AT&T LG G2

I just received an OTA update on AT&T G2 to version D80020y. Thing is earlier I had a root but some how the update went through with the installation without a hassle. I can't remember where I downloaded the root from. Could you guys suggest a good rooting process which will allow me to install OTA updates in the future also.
Thanks in advance.

Do you still have root? Any thing different you noticed after the OTA?

Having root and allowing OTA updates is a recipe for disaster. You're better off waiting for someone to post an update here in the forums that works with root or be certain that the update doesn't break root.

This thing doesn't get updated on the forums, that's the problem. I've asked for the 20u stock system folder from someone rooted on that version and no one has responded. The last version we have here is 20k stock rooted. I'm still waiting. Now I'd like to get my hands on an unmodified stock 20y I'll have to wait forever to NOT get.

xposed installed moto g looking for OTA (Andriod lollipop) update

i have recently unlocked my boot loader and installed xposed followed by some useful tweaks. after hearing the announcement of andriod lollipop i was awestruck and now i feel guilty about rooting my mobile. can i get OTA update for andriod 5.0??? if yes what am i supposed to do before installing the update??? (i know it's too early to talk about it, but i can't handle my anxiety)

Find and flash a stock ROM... When the roll out starts just "un-root" using SuperSu's built in "un-root" option.

You will need to flash stock ROM, stock recovery and unroot your device in order to update to lollipop safely

MT7-TL10 update - is it 5.1?

Hi all,
I"m living in Germany, but I bought my HAM7 in January in Dubai.
Today I received an OTA which is MT7-TL10_channel_MT7-TL10V100R001C00B128.
I"m wondering if someone already did that update and whether it's 5.1.
Thanks!

Hi, no this is a previous update.
5.1 is 300B
Probably, since 5.1 is an update and not a full OTA, it will come when you have an intermediate updated version of android. So go on, update to this suggested rom and wait for a following one.

guys
I make it root with kingoroot app and has told me its root your device . reboot it and no root on my device and try to install root checker on play Google and also told me no root
OSN play told me there is root on my Device ...
how can un-root my device and this root if existing can make OTA update or not ????
please help me

Thanks for your answer, you"re confirming what I found out as well. This update is 4.4.2.
Currently I can't really see any improvements, maybe they are hidden under the hood.

not sure if I got your question correctly. I rooted my device a week after I bought it in January, following the guidance I found in a different place on a German website. However, the process was a bit more complex compared to other devices I've rooted in the past. Especially the way of getting the id-numbers on a Chinese website was somehow challenging. Anyway, immediately after successfully rooting the mate7, I replaced the CWM recovery with stock recovery and from there I did receive the OTA"s which I seamlessly could install.
If your question is more general on rooting the HAM7 you should consult to the other more specific threads here on XDA

1. You don't have to worry about lock bootloader
2. Which Software version are you running? v10e, v10i or v10j?
3. If you update there is a way to downgrade cuz we have previews KDZ's

I am running version 10i,
I am guessing tmobile wants to upgrade me to v10j. Is there a flash able version for 10j that I can use?
Thanks

Ok, you can go here and update to the latest version v10j using @GameTheory. V10j Full update/pre-rooted/untouch TWRP.

dummy you can't update that way you must remove all traces of root which the app can't do use the KDZ

If you are rooted and it says system update DO NOT INSTALL IT... it will brick your phone
