Replacing the camera of the Moto X 2014 with the camera of the Nexus 6

hello XDA-members,

i was searching the XDA-threads and of course google but wasn't able to find an answer to my question:

Is it possible to replace the original camera of the Moto X 2014 with the camere of the Nexus 6?
Both seem to be the same size and the flex cable of both cams look identical to me.

Specs of the Moto X 2014 camera:

- 13MP Sony IMX135 1/3.06-inch CMOS sensor, 4128 x 3096 pixels, autofocus,
- F2.25 aperture
- 31mm equivalent focal length
- Dual-LED (ring) flash
- ISO 50 - 1000
- Geo-tagging, touch focus, face detection, panorama, HDR
- 4K-video
- 2MP front camera (1080p)


Specs of the Nexus 6 camera:

13 MPSony IMX214 (Stacked CMOS; Exmor RS), 4128 x 3096 pixels, autofocus, optical image stabilization,
- F/2.0 aperture
- Dual-LED (ring) flash,
- Geo-tagging, touch focus, face detection, panorama, HDR
- 4K video -> 2160p@30fps, optical stabilization,
- 2MP front camera (1080p)

so in conclusion: would be nice to have a little camera upgrade to get optical stabilization etc. on our Moto X 2014 with this little trick...

here are the links to Etradesupply, where you can get a look how the cameras look like in detail:

If sombody has already made some experience in replacing / changing the cameras, would it be nice if he/she would share his/her experience..
All opinions are welcome!
