*** DISCLAIMER ***

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU MESS UP YOUR PHONE! OR IF YOU LOSE ANY DATA, ITS CALLED BACK IT UP BEFORE HAND!

Word to the wise if you don't know how to use RSDLite or Fastboot to restore your phone then leave this thread now please! I will not attempt to simplify this down anymore. I learned everything I know about modifying Android from reading, reading, trial and error, then reading some more. There is a reason I don't have a high post count on here or XDA I read just about every post in most threads or I Google the problem I'm having. So I have no time or sympathy for people that ask stupid or redundant questions. You need to backup everything on your internal storage before you install this, because to switch back to 4.2.2 and possibly 4.4 you will have to RSD back to stock. This needs to be flashed to the STOCK SLOT and the 4.4.2 KitKat Kernel and Baseband needs to be flashed for it to work. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!

Okay this is a stock unmodified(3c_ota.apk is the only apk removed) rooted rom of the 4.4.2 KitKat OTA with full Safestrap functionality, except for restoring back to 4.2.2 and possibly 4.4 I can't test 4.4. To go back to 4.2.2 you will have to restore back using RSD or Fastboot. I've been running this all day, and so far no issues have surfaced. I haven't tested ART yet but it should work fine. You will need to have the phone's drivers installed to get this working, so click the link below to download them and install them before you start. https://motorola-glo.../p/30,6720,8696

Instructions to install this rom for Safestrap Users, read every step before you start...

1. You need to be rooted on 4.2.2 or 4.4 with Safestrap installed

2. You also need to have disabled write protection via MotoWpNoMo

3. Boot into Safestrap Recovery

4. Factory Reset the STOCK Slot in Safestrap DO NOT wipe the /system it can cause issues

5. Flash the Rom zip to the STOCK Slot (this will take a couple minutes)

9. Open the extracted folder and find the FlashMyMotoX.bat and run it

10. Choose option 8 within the FlashMyMotoX utility to flash the 4.4.2 KitKat Kernel

11. Once it finishes get back to the options and choose option 9 this will flash the 4.4.2 KitKat Baseband

1. Boot into TWRP 2.7 (recommended that's what I use to test) factory reset then install the rom.

2. If you were on 4.4.2 already then reboot and enjoy if you weren't on 4.4.2 then continue to step 3.

3. Once done installing reboot to the bootloader from within TWRP.
