Firmware update... - Moto G 2014 LTE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
Currently receiving an OTA alert about firmware 22.41.24.en.gb. Anyone know what this is? 5.1? Can't install as I am currently rooted with custom recovery and xposed framework. Is all I need to do to install change to the stock recovery?

I've got this update as well this morning. Also rooted with TWRP. I'm no expert but I would say we need to wait for someone to make an update we can flash from recovery.

What is your model?

Locally I have stock image + ota
I can upload ota but for apply it you have to use everything stock

I removed root via super su app menu and reflashed the stock recovery.img before accepting the upgrade.
Then once the update installed ok I put TWRP and root back on the device.

Now that you have ota installed, can you tell me your system version and build number? I have 22.21.28.thea_reteuall.en.EU retfr system version and LXB22.46-28 build number and I didn't receive any OTA upgrade notice. I have not done any mod (root, custom recovery...) to stock

OTA Fails
Damn, even after full unroot and flashing back the stock recovery the OTA fails... And I can't really read why.
Except for root, I installed system settings Tasker plugin and converted it into a system app as well as froze some CN bloatware apps with TB. I will now reflash twrp and reroot and first try to unfreeze and as a last step uninstall the Tasker plugin.
If anybody has some solid experience, please share and maybe save me some time.
Thanks!
UPDATE: Alright, that all didn't work. I realized that the tasker plugin does not copy anything to the system, but I had a Helper app from PinTasker there which I deleted. And I unfroze all the apps and did a full unroot, but still no luck. I don't know what to do anymore now except for going full back to stock (no gapps), but I would rather avoid that if possible.
Still, glad for any input on this matter!
Thanks

Ok, thank you. So Lollipop 5.1 is not yet available for our device through Motorola official update... do you know when it will be? I'm asking this because on Motorola's website (in the section motorla upgrade news) I can't find thea model

My phone was retgb so I flahsed retgb [emoji14]

Is there a way to flash the modem and bootloader from the OTA file through adb?

Hi, is it possible to flash the stock retgb firmware (on locked bootloader) if the phone came with the retde firmware? Since they are exactly the same model (xt1072) and both firmwares are digitally signed by motorola.
I ask cause the retde hasn't received this ota update yet, and if I switched it to the retgb i could get the ota update right away for the newer modem and bootloader before i unlocked and got cm.
Thx

[Q] German Moto X - anyone know how to update

Hi,
Does anyone know how, and if it is possible to convert it to the XT-1092 EU version (Mine is the XT-1092 DE (German) version)
and is it possible without unlocking the bootloader.?
Thanks.

I have (had) a retde xt1092 variant, I flashed the reteu firmware without problems, even without needing to factory reset and then upgraded to lollipop without any problems. My bootloader is unlocked, you can try with a locked bootloader
Thanks for your reply,
I did try to sideload the xt1092 EU version though, and samy thing, it compained that my fingerprint was wrong..
So.. I guess I would either have to unlock the bootloader, or wait for the German version to be released..

Just flash the reteu image and then sideload, you probably don't need to unlock

you need to be unlocked to bypass that signature verification.

For all guys on retde you can easily flash the reteu 4.4.4 image and then sideload the lollipop ota. Everythings running smooth and without bugs.
Hi,

To be clear, you can definitely flash the EU image and the EU OTA update.zip on a retde XT1092 without unlocking your bootloader and without losing any user data. I did and everything is running smoothly.
Me too, I can confirm that.
Help here

Hello,
I have a retde XT1092 with locked bootloader.
When i try to flash the reteu zip (Via stock recovery) a message appears that instalation is aborded.
Can you please give a mini-guide to do this?
Maybe the Factory image i have is wrong.
Do you have any links for the Factory image?
Thank you for your time.

You are probably using regular fastboot not Motorola fastboot.

[Q] How to update from 4.4 to 5.1 properly ?

Hi everyone,
I know there is a lot of answers on this forum but it's difficult to find exactly what I ask.
My (european) Moto X 2014 (XT1092) is still in Android 4.4 rooted, with unlocked bootloader and no recovery.
I would like to update to Lollipop 5.1, be rooted and with Xposed installed. I don't want to brick my phone, and I would like some advices on how to do that, what are the steps ?
Thanks
If you haven't already update to 5.0 you could flash 4.4.4/5.0 and then OTA to 5.1

No,flashing will unroot your device.Backup before.

Ok thank's ! By backup you mean manually or use an app to entirely backup the system and data ?
Do I have to root the phone on 5.0 and then update to 5.1 ?
You can fastboot boot twrp and make a backup,just to be safe,it's not mandatory. Flash 5.0 and then check for update.

Ok ! But if I want to be rooted on 5.1 Do I have to root it on 5.0 and then update to 5.1 (will it keep the root ?) or root on 5.1 (if it's possible) ?

[Q] Should I root on android 4.4.4 or on 5.1?

Hey guys,
I have a Moto X 2013 (XT1052) and today I recived the notification for the OTA update to android 5.1 , I'm currently running stock android 4.4.4 with an unlocked bootloader. So my question is, should I root now on android 4.4.4 or install the update and root on android 5.1?

you will likely lose root taking the OTA update.
Since you have an unlocked bootloader, Take the 5.1 OTA, then after taking the OTA you may root by following -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/moto-x-qa/instructions-unlocking-rooting-dev-ed-t2649738 Please be sure to use the latest TWRP fastboot IMG file (Alternate Link) and Installable ZIP of SuperSU

I flashed TWRP-2.8.6.0-Ghost.img to my Moto X, but now I can't boot into recovery and everytime I restart my phone it needs to optimize apps and that takes ages. Do you have any idea's for how to solve this?
Edit: Never mind, I figured it out and successfully rooted my phone! Thankyou for your help.

Could you explain in detail how do i get back to 4.4.4? I am fairly new to all this. i'll update my phone over OTA later on.
Can you help me with 4.4.4? Step wise? I know about the manual flashing but when i do so it was my bootloader is updated so i cannot downgrade.

That's true. You can not downgrade, if you are on a light, official side. But if you want to try dark side - flash your Asia region 4.4.4 without "gpt" and "motoboot" lines in its XML file. Once flashed 4.4.4, you can take OTA 5.1 on it without any problem.
A message to future users. Being on 5.1.1, then downgrade to 4.4.4, and taking 5.1 OTA - will brick. Don't do that.

Root + Ota update

Hey I have p20 pro EU version 6/128
Today I got a new update about Google security.
I want every update run on my phone
But I rooted my device.
I wanted first to ask guys , I tried to update but was unsuccessful. I do not have twrp because of the method I used to root p20 pro didn't allow me having magisk and twrp recovery.
So now if I want to update have to do it manually ?
2 questions
1) which program do I use ?
2) where I can find the firmware Official WITHOUT BEEING CHANGED ANYTHING inside from someone third.
Thanks John
You need to flash the stock bootloader. If you are running Pie and Magisk, you have a modified bootloader. I don't know where to download the stock one. Could probably rip it from a stock Pie firmware.
Me to have twrp on my p20 pro and i cannot update my phone.. Have new update but when I try system update after download, its entering to recovery mode for install the firmware but it cannot coz working twrp and unsuccessful installation.
Me to look for stock recovery for clt-l29 pie

Download the current version you are using. Extract recovery_ramdisk.img and flash. Reboot and take OTA update. You will lose root, as I said you have a modified recovery and need stock to take OTA.
Edit - Once your done, patch the bootloader from Magisk and flash to get root again.
