Moto X getting 4.4.2?

[TheMiz]

4.4 is broken. Google 4.4 and exchange. It's not a few isolated complainers.

Just what does this mean ?

Sorry for being confused.

No worries. The Moto X in the states received the 4.4 update before 4.4.2 was even released by Google. The Moto G was released after 4.4.2 was out, and so went directly to that instead of 4.4, a move that simply wasn't an option at the time the X received its 4.4 update.

So perhaps might it have been the case that 4.4.2 was "ready" to update the G and not the X?

I'm only curious as you guys usually get everything first!

Eh, not exactly. My guess is that Moto was really pushing to get a 4.4 variant to the G ASAP for sales and marketing purposes. Their developers were likely focused on getting everything set to update that phone, and since the X had already been updated to 4.4 almost entirely across the board (Rogers being the big exception), they were more concerned with getting a first update to the G rather than a second to the X.

Assuming they don't plan on just waiting to see the next release of Android (another 4.4.X), I'm sure Moto will be working on 4.4.2 for the X soon enough. It's not a huge update anyways - I'm honestly not too worried about my phone being on 4.4 still.

I just want Photosphere. It was the whole reason I was excited for 4.2, and when I bought the Moto X I didn't realize it didn't have it. I know I can download it, but it doesn't have the ability to upload them.

Many people (not everyone, and not just on the x) have issues with 4.4 and exchange email.

I'm also hoping 4.4.2 will further fix the camera including the iso problem.

Moto X is always slow when getting updates. If this is your concern buy NEXUS device.... always motox will trail 1-3 months of android's latest.

Slow? It's true that the Moto X is going to lag behind the Nexus with updates in most cases but out of all the non-Nexus devices, the Moto X was the first to get 4.4. We got 4.4 just a few weeks after the Nexus 5 went on sale, just a week after the Nexus 7 and Nexus 10 and even got it before the Nexus 4. I would hardly call that "slow".

According to a member on xda forums he just received 4.4.2 on a Verizon moto x.

Cool, Thanks for the update.

What's so interesting is that I have never heard of people having problems with exchange on the Moto X on KitKat until a couple of weeks ago. I have never had a problem and my college email comes through exchange. Shouldn't there be an email app to use from the play store that can suffice until the update comes along for those having problems?

You'd think so. I think a lot of users migrated from Apple and they're trained not to look for solutions which deviate from what's preinstalled on the phone.

I saw that there is some questions though some things not adding up if you read though that thread.
I know there has been no talk yet of 4.2.2 being pushed out as of yet in the motorola forums.(MFN)Maybe that will happen next week but as far as that guy on xda already getting the update..... Well I dont know for sure if thats bogus or not .

Yes. Post about system updates that no one else has received should be taken with a grain of salt. However, when I had the OG droid RAZR I received the ICS update before anyone on xda or even my wife's RAZR at the time. So its possible the update accidentally slipped to a few phones and it will soon be released to everyone.

But it never got any of the 4.3 releases, so in that time frame I'd say it was slow, or more accurately, non-existant.

So skipping 4.3 when they knew 4.4 was releasing soon makes them slow to bring updates? Interesting world you live in.
