As centipedes said, it has *not* started yet. Invites were sent out, but the actual OTA has not gone out to testers.

Awesome right?
But why hasn't soak test started yet then! This month has like 3 weeks to go!

Soak Test shouldn't be more than a week, so we can expect it by the end of Dec!

My phone is a carrier unlocked Bell AHD, and I am using it on AT&T.

That I understand, the thing is the at&t soak has 4.1.1 and a different version... I'd be nice to know the specifics.
The update is carrier specific, not network specific.
Things get even more interesting as the Razr Hd at&t is also 4.1.2.

To me, its kind of strange that AT&T pushed the Bell update to my phone. I'm guessing what happened is that AT&T told me I have an update, and then they connected me to the Motorola servers, who saw that my phone is a Bell AHD and sent me that update.
Good news for Bell AHD owners, the camera app is updated. HDR is now included (the new icon is pretty ugly though).

Okay so I may be a little late to the party on this, but I've never seen anything about this. With the new update, there is a quick settings menu. At the home screen, swipe the home screen to the right (so go to the screen to the left of home), it is now a quick settings screen.

It's not a settings screen. It is a screen that is to the left of the home screen. That background is just the wallpaper I have set up.

Anyone receive Verizon 4.4.2 on stock X?

I posted a couple times in the release thread but it got lost in all the posts about rooted and unlocked versions. So has anyone on Verizon with stock moto X receive the 4.4.2 update yet?

Yes, I got it Monday about 9:30-45 in the morning. Not a soak tester, however I am registered on Motorola Connect. Just wait, it is not a big change and everything works basically the same. Chris

Yeah I just like having the latest lol but thanks for the response. Did it come to you in a notification or did you get going into settings and checking the update status? Cause that's all I've been doing.

So nothing noticeable but nothing worse signal strength same as before?

Signal seems the same for me. Camera seems better for me but who knows. Nothing really noticeable for me but I don't use exchange so I'm not sure if that bug was squashed.
I side loaded it btw didn't get the OTA.

havne't got anything yet over here! still waiting impatiently....

Woke up this morning to a "your phone has an update available" message. Downloaded itself and was waiting to install.
I did notice that I had to reboot the phone to connect to Wifi after the update, but so far everything is looking solid. Haven't checked bluetooth or NFC yet.

I got mine today too..tried to install and it failed.. I'm root using jcases method of rockmymoto and had to do it by adb shell.. Could that affect it?
Slapped my Moto

Woke up this morning to the update! After today's use, battery is definitely better.

Moto service automatically downloaded 135MB 4.4.2 OTA for me, OVER THE MOBILE DATA. I only had 300MB data for the month and am not amused that the phone just decided to download OTA by itself even when WIFI was turned off. Furthermore, I can't find any place to disable such behavior for the future. Any suggestion ?
Mine is verizon.
Thanks.

I've looked in and out and haven't found any setting that can disable such OTA behavior.
I'm actually using another carrier's SIM on this phone ---- Verizon Moto X is gsm unlocked.
What if this happens when I'm roaming internationally (with a non-Verizon carrier) ?
Downloading OTA via mobile data without consent just doesn't make sense.

I can't understand about OTA behavior it when your WiFi is turned off but it's working... how it possible ? You can switched off on that time.. Can you share some attachment ?

If you are rooted you can freeze MotorolaOTA app or rename it.

Software Update

I just got a notification that a software update is being downloaded, yet I can't seem to see what exactly it is. I never took the 4.4 update because I was rooted and it was way too much trouble to install it, so I stayed on 4.3. I am hesitant to accept it because of it is the Kitkat update, it'll only stop at 25% or so.
Has anyone else gotten an update notice?

As I said though, it's a whole lot of things I'd have to go through just to install it, and personally, it's just not worth it.

[Q] No Service

Hi!
I just got my new G Flex today (I know, a bit late to the party) and I put my SIM in and there is no service constantly. I know the SIM is not the problem because it works in other phones. I have already called my service provider and they say that there really shouldn't be anything stopping it from getting service. Also tried to reset the phone to factory settings with no positive result. Is there anything you guys suggest to do?
Thanks!

No, I got it from becextech (a website which imports them to NZ (country I live in)).
No I'm not rooted, just got it today would rooting it help?
And Yes it only goes in one way!
I am however performing a software update to see if that changes anything. Will keep you posted with the results!
Thanks!
UPDATE: Upgrade to 4.4.2 did nothing to the service

[Discussion] New Firmware Update

Hopefully we don't have to wait too long for this http://m.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s6_is_receiving_a_new_502_ota_in_europe-news-12195.php

The way the us carriers operate, who knows we might not see it. we can only hope samsung is putting pressure on the carriers to push the updates faster and more frequent.

Yea, I'd be surprised if we see this before 5.1.1. Tmobile already showed their hand with the leak for the edge.

Not sure about the US variants but the Canadian ones are identical and has a CSC folder and subfolders for all the Canadian carriers including small provincial ones. The carriers don't even need to touch it cause the bloat is already in those subfolders and gets installed based on the network it connects to!
The only delay would be if the carriers are the ones responsible for hosting the OTA servers!

I might be wrong but I think tmobile decided to skip this update and go right for 5.1.1. If that is the case hopefully we will have a bug free build because they sunk all their time into it. Plus we would see 5.1.1 before any other s6 by probably a month Or more. Personally I hope that is the case, android L is just too buggy on anything under 5.1.1 To make updating worth the time.

I do hope we get an update soon, I'm tired of using the Digitally Imported App in my car, getting out to shop at a grocery store, then getting back into my car only to have the Samsung "Over The Horizon" music start to play because I haven't loaded any other music on my phone. I then have to restart the DI App, and start the radio station again because the App was closed by the phone earlier while I was grocery shopping...
How it's supposed to work is when I get back in my car, the radio station automatically unpauses since the App is still loaded in memory and the phone knows it was last playing music from that App.
