T-Mobile Moto X Android 4.4.4 KitKat OTA Update is Now Live

The Moto X Android 4.4.4 OTA update is now being pushed to T-Mobile users. For the time being, the carrier didn’t update their support page, but the users who own the T-Mo variant of Motorola’s 2013 flagship are reporting they are receiving the Android 4.4.4 update on their devices.

The Moto X Android 4.4.4 update for Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint users was rolled out a while ago and it’s quite odd to see T-Mobile trailing behind, since their Moto X variant is controlled by Motorola as an unlocked device. Anyway, it’s better late than never. As usual, the Android 4.4.4 OTA update for Moto X will be rolled out in phases, which means that some of you might not be able to download and install it right away.

As you probably know already, once your device becomes eligible to receive the new OTA update you should be able to notice a system update message in the notifications panel. Tap on it, choose Download, then, after the download is completed, choose Install Now. Your smartphone will reboot and install Android 4.4.4. In case the system update notification failed to appear, it’s also worth performing a manual check under Settings > About phone > System updates.

Even though there’s no official changelog from T-Mobile, the Moto X Android 4.4.4 update should be similar to the one rolled out for the Verizon, Sprint, and AT&T variants of the device. Besides security improvements, it also brings a new color scheme and improved usability to phone dialer, better camera picture quality, and the ability to pause video recordings.

It’s also worth noting that the Android 4.4.4 update for T-Mobile Moto X is labeled 213.44.1 and that it could have a size of over 500 MB. It’s recommended to download the update file using a WiFi network in order to avoid unwanted data charges.
