I recieved OTA

Hello, if anyone is still looking for some OTA screenshots, or proof that the rollout has started. BTW im from Romania

Oh c'mon ! I also live in Romania and nothing yet for me... Anyone else got the OTA update ?
BTW, my carrier is telekom, but I don't think that matters

When will OTA be available in India?
Can anybody received OTA 5.0 in India?

Please make screenshot when you update it. Screenshot of Settings/About Phone. (baseband version,kernelversion,build number)
thanks

I don't think the OTA is country specific. It's done in random batches I think.

Yes, a friend running stock ROM with no root or any modification. Btw, you can download the ota zip from android police and flash the zip using adb sideload with the help of default stock recovery.

Happy for ya, man, but please don't forget about the rest of us. From what I understand, you are one of the 1% and Google await some kinda feedback from this 1% group (sent out automatically by the device) before they proceed to the next step - the 25%. So, please... please do not f*ck with your phone for the next 24-48 hours so that it sends out a positive signal or feedback (whatever), thus making Google move ahead to the 25% phase of the rollout. Here's hoping my device is part of that 25%. *fingers crossed*

I also live in Romania, my carrier is Digi, and the N5 i own is from them. No update yet, been bugging with the check for updates button all day yesterday
I know I could force update but i wanna use the OTA because i wanna see how Google envisioned the whole upgrade experience
Also this will be the only phone i will not be messing around with.

It doesn't matter how many times you mash the "Check for update" button. I read yesterday that they rollout the update to 1% of the devices to check for issues with the upgrade. If you didn't make it in the first wave, you won't force it by checking. Then they release it to 25%, 50% and so on. You can get the OTA from HERE manually, if you want it so badly. I flashed the factory image and didn't restore anything. Be sure to get the KTU84P, as the KTU84Q is only for a very small part of the world.
Edit: I found the Reddit thread that discusses this policy.

As said, the OTA file is available to download and flash manually so just do that as opposed to waiting

I have a problem with Su binary update and installing xposed framework ..
can any one help ??

Thank you so much for this post! I will take this chance to post a couple of questions:
I got MIUI 4.11.28 on my Sony Xperia Z1 (6903). I've installed WSM 2.3.6, after flashing and wiping the 4.11.28 MIUI ROM, because I updated from a previous version.
WSM seems like its working but actually it isn't! On the log of "Framework section", it says "Dexspy found, but it seems to be inactive. Common binaries will be used."
I found previous posts here that mention the same log output but I couldn't find a solution for that.
Also, my device freezes itself from time to time (6~12 hours) and reboots. Even if screen is locked.
Could you give me a hand about this? Thanks!

It is possible for the MIUI to freeze and reboot for now. Because it is based on the official firmware. It is impossible for MIUI auto patch to patch everything perfectly. You know MIUI stop updating MIUI V5 from souce.
Feel so sorry about that

Thanks for your answer! I guess so, it's just I read somewhere here that the spontaneous reboots could be related to WSM. However, I get used to reboot my phone for breakfast, lunch & dinner
My main concern is still what happened with WSM....

The Zip file is formed, but you have to find it. It is not located directly under internal or external SD card. You have to find the exact path where it is created. Unfortunately I don't remember exact path, and I am on Lollipop ROM on my Z1 now, otherwise I would look it up.
Wish you good luck
Looked here: Storage/emulated/0/android/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/files??

Of course ! Where did you find it?

hey there, i'm using .28 but it says the media storage has stopped and i can't restore any data from titanium backup...

[Q] Moto X XT1092: 5.0.2 System update getting failed.

I am not sure why it is happening with but i am not able to install 5.0.1 (12 MB) update on my Moto X 2014. I have unlocked bootloader and phone is rooted running on 5.0 Lollipop firmware.
Baseband Version:
MSM8974BP_4125.184.08.27.01R
VICTARA_EMEA_CUST
System Version
22.21.19.victara_reteu.retailuall.en.EU retin
It downloads the update file.
Reboot the device.
Goes into recovery and show me that it's installing the update. Half way on the progress bar the phone reboots.
After booting I see message which tells me that System update installation is failed. It does not give an error message or reason.
I tried installing it multiple times but same results. Any help will be appreciated.

To add Motorola Device Software updater shows me that my firmware doesn't have any available updates. Whereas i am getting regular notifications to run system update.
I attached screenshot of Motorola Device Software updater.

You should be happy, i had exact same config, and had soft brick when trying to upgrade. I believe you can't do the update if you are rooted. So you must flash stock back and then update.

My phone keeps displaying that i have pending system update. What is the right way to get the update without bricking your phone?
After your update i am not going to try any workaround methods to force upgrade. But this is something that should be well explained by Motorola or Android community somewhere on internet. I think need to wait till the time more helpful resources are available.

i think just flashing back the stock system partition using fastbot should do it. I haven't done this myself though, i needed to completely reflash stock

I am facing the exact same problem.
I am currently on 22.21.19.victara_reteu.retailuall.en.EU and the update notification I am getting is for 22.121.1
I have an unlocked bootloader but the phone is not rooted.
I do not agree that OTA update doesn't work when phone has an unlocked bootloader and is rooted. The Android 5.0 update got installed on my phone when it was already rooted (I lost root access after the update).
Still looking for solution for "OTA installation failed" problem though...

So far My 5.0.1 update never got downloaded and i was not able to update the phone using Motorola update. Therefore i flashed Cyanogenmod 12.1 which has latest Android build. This way i stopped annoying alerts of system update on my phone.

Android System Update *root* 24.6 MB........

I was hoping someone could help me out with this......
I've been getting this irritating "Android System Update" (screenshot attached) week after week.
I'm rooted (unlocked bootloader), running stock 5.1.1
This update keeps showing up and when I go to install it, the phone reboots, then it goes it TWRP. I'm assuming this hasn't installed correctly because it keeps coming back.
Does anyone know how to get rid of this or install it correctly. It's becoming quite annoying when it pops up time after time.
Thank you-

Install the update manually or block OTAs.

I'd start by reading the stickies at the top of the thread list... Good readng.

this update would probably be LMY48I, for the stagefright patch.
what is your current build number?

The link you posted is for Galaxy Nexus (not N6). It is the same page, but a different location. You need https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#shamu
@IINexusII is likely correct that the update you received is LMY48I. So you should be able to flash that

Thank you all very much for your help.
I'll try to patch one of these updates this weekend when I have some time off.
I'm the gatekeeper for all that is Android OS in my family. Myself, my Mom and now my Dad all have Nexus 6' and I've rooted us all. So I install it on my phone first and then the same with theirs.
I was so happy I found a fix for the MLB At Bat app and their stupid blackout rules.

This is just great, been having the same issue and versions
This covered everything I had at the moment!

I applied the update tonight, sick of those damn OTA prompts.
This is where I got mine from, but still not sure if I chose the right one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/development/fxz-nexus-6-recovery-flashable-fastboot-t3066052
Installed the download from:
LVY48F (5.1.1 Project Fi bugfix update 20150910)
It says Project Fi only, but I have no idea what that is. I didn't see an option for LVY48I, so I went with LVY48F.
Did I do this right?
Want to make sure I didn't screw up my phone.
I tried installing the OEM ROM from here, but it failed while trying to flash it via TWRP recovery:
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#shamu
"5.1.1 (LMY48I)"

Anyone?

[ROM] TWRP Flashable Stock Builds

*FILES REMOVED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE, AS USERS ARE HAVING CONNECTION ISSUES AFTER FLASHING*
Here are the latest stock retail builds packaged into TWRP flashable format.
You can use these files to upgrade and downgrade stock builds safely, as they do not include gpt (partition table) or bootloader.
Usage is simple:
Copy file to device storage
Reboot into TWRP
Flash zip
Profit!
Please remember to hit the "THANKS" button if these files help you!
NOTES:
Dm-verity and force encryption have been disabled in the boot images, and unlocked device/dm-verity warnings have been disabled in the logo images.
Do NOT attempt to apply standard OTAs over these builds; they will fail.
If you get an OTA for a build that's not yet available, please share it!
How To Pull An OTA update:
Download the update
Power off and boot into TWRP
Go to Advanced > File Manager
Navigate to /cache
There will be a Blur_Version_blah.zip file
Copy to internal storage or sdcard
Copy from internal storage or sdcard to PC (optional, recommended)
Upload to Drive, Mega, or whichever file sharing service you choose
Share the link!

Thank you so much,it works on xt1710-08 well,just backup EFS in trwp just in case of no signal,after flash this rom in twrp,restore EFS and enjoy it.Also,you can root it with flashing magisk

So the 118-19-6 is good for the XT1710-01 Retail directly from Motorola?

Dude, what did I just say? I DON'T KNOW.
I'm sure it will work, but it may take you off your official upgrade path.
And with no fastboot file available for your current software version, I would take a full TWRP backup and copy to pc for safekeeping before trying anything.

I'm going to buy my z2 play bike at the end of the year and it's a shame not to have an updated lite rom. Probably you should be doing a good job.
It would be nice to have a rom lite for ALL MODEL with deodex, delete more apps OTA / CCC / CCE, OTA process is deleted, remove a lot of the background services collect and send data on the type of phone (DropBox, MotoCare , MotoConntect, Drive and etc).

Updated the OP with the latest retail build NPSS26.118-19-11.
Unlike most carrier unlocked moto devices, which tend to have multiple upgrade paths for different regions, the albus seems to have only one upgrade path for the retail variant so far.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, and please post the OTA files for alternate upgrade paths if you have them; directions are in the OP.
I have linked the tools I use to create these at the bottom of the OP.
You can use these tools and info in their threads to reverse engineer the stock build and modify it to your liking.

Thank you so much now i can have the latest update for my rooted moto thanks a lot

The file name structure doesn't have anything to do with the date it was made afaik.
That update is for "albus_c" and not "albus". I'm not sure what the difference is.
Apparently, there are multiple upgrade paths after all.
Flashing this will likely take you off your current upgrade path, but it is safe, so you can always go back to your previous stock build if you want.

Unlike most carrier unlocked moto devices, which tend to have multiple upgrade paths for different regions, the albus seems to have only one upgrade path for the retail variant so far.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, and please post the OTA files for alternate upgrade paths if you have them; directions are in the OP.
I have linked the tools I use to create these at the bottom of the OP.
You can use these tools and info in their threads to reverse engineer the stock build and modify it to your liking.

Thanks @Q9Nap!
I've attempted to follow your instructions about applying OTA via TWRP, but that fails because of mismatching thumbprint - which sounds odd since I've downloaded and attempted to flash on exactly the same device...
Anyway, I'll try soon to flash the full stock ROM, after download from the link you've re-posted.
