Hi, I have a xt1032, UL and rooted, stock rom and kernel, Xposed with TWRP. The ota just hit my phone this afternoon and I have been trying in vain for hours to update it because I need the bug fixes badly. I am trying to find the OTA.zip file....either that or the stock recovery.img file. Thank you in advance!

Here is the stock 4.4.2 recovery.img for US Retail XT1032.

[Download]

Flash using fastboot:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img​

Thanks again, lost101

i dont know is there a stock recovery img in the pack of last version but i think there is just read all install drivers then flash stock rec. and then update ota,if you deleted some system apps you will get error then u should flash system chunks only to fix it after that do ota till get 4.4.3 flash costum recovery root and that's it :)

I flashed the stock recovery and also uninstalled xposed framework..still got an error message and update failed. I didn't delete any system apps but has some frozen thru TB. now defrosted and trying again. I'm on the T-mobile network (I thought it was cdma but I guess it's GSM) should my kernel be the174.44.1.falcon_umts.AWSRetail.en.us? because I noticed it no longer has the 'AWS' part..if anyone could offer some insight on that

No, no success for me yet- there are links up now in other posts for the xt1034 my friend. I think at one point I flashed the wrong firmware by mistake, cuz I definitely have a xt1032 and the version should show 174.44.1.falcon_umts.Retail.en.US but this pic has the AWS version for the xt1034 that is not right for the xt1032
