Installing OTA on rooted XT1064 - G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My wife's XT1064 has on OTA (22.46.12.en.US) available which is a Stagefright fix. It has downloaded but when it tries to apply the OTA it boots into TWRP and I have no frigging clue where the downloaded file is or if it can be applied through TWRP.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am unfamiliar with the Moto G's ins and outs.
Thanks.

You must have stock recovery and full unroot for apply the update

Is there no way to push this update via adb sideload?

So how do I get stock recovery back? Unrooting shouldn't be too big of an issue I am thinking.

Good question. The next question is if anyone knows and how to do it.

Well I did pretty good with my Galaxy S, Nitro HD, OGP, and haven't borked my Zenfone 2 yet. I successfully unlocked the bootloader and rooted the phone but I know to take it slow and double-check everything before I click it. As long as I have instructions I am good.

no unless you select option 3 factory reset - option 1 only wipes cache but NOT userdata

So, how the procedure went? I have the same situation as you described (Stagefright available and my phone is rooted and running TWRP) and I'm just wondering if you faced any other trouble following the steps.
Thanks

no as its recovery for xt1064 - if you replace the recovery with a xt1063 that would work

Would I lose my data stored in the internal memory if I unroot my moto g 2014?
BTW: I am rooted using the the stock firmware.
EDIT: Do I have to re-lock the boot-loader in other to successfully install last update?

Thanks man!

I followed your instructions but update fails. It was rooted and with TWRP.
Will flash CyanogenMod soon so I don't care.

If you still need help, I wrote this guide for you and anyone else who is confused.
Now that you have unlocked the bootloader follow these steps.
1. Boot into the bootloader by pressing volume down + power.
2. Press the power button to enter fastboot.
3. Make sure that beneath the first few lines on the top of the screen it says fastboot usb highlighted in red.
4. Find a version of TWRP, WCX, or whatever recovery image you are going to use and then extract it into the folder on your computer.
5. In CMD, type this:
fastboot flash recovery "name of the file.img"
6. Press [bootloader] to go back to the main menu (without the brackets).
7. Scroll down with the volume button to recovery.
8. Boot into recovery.
If your recovery works, do this to use a custom rom.
9. Go back into the bootloader by turning your phone off and then using power + volume down.
10. Download a custom rom and open up the .zip file. Then, extract the file named boot.img and extract it into the folder on your computer.
11. Enter fastboot and type this into CMD:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
12. Go back into your recovery (following the steps above from 6-8). Mount your internal SD card and put on the file of the custom rom you wish to use onto your storage. Be sure to copy the file in .zip format, not after it has been extracted.
If your custom rom needs Google Apps, then download the correct file which should be specified in the download area of your rom's post.
13. Go back into the main menu of your recovery and then choose the option to flash the file.
14. Choose the file that you have just loaded onto your storage.
15. Flash Google Apps if you need it.
16. Thank me if it worked
works like a charm:laugh:

Hello,
You must first install stock recovery in order to manually update through Updater > Local update, and yes update.app must be in the dload folder on the SD card. (connect your device to your PC, install adb, reboot it to bootloader using 'adb reboot bootloader', put 'recovery.img' into the same folder as adb, execute 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img', then do 'fastboot reboot', once your device is fully booted go to the Updater app, and do a local update.)

That is exactly what you need - adb reboot bootloader (<- it's one word!) gets the phone into fastboot mode (same as flashify). From here you can flash the recovery. On the PC, run fastboot flash recovery <path-to-stock-recovery>. This will get you the stock recovery on the phone. Now you can use the 3 button method to flash the stock ROM.

You must get it into fastboot mode. If the phone restarts and does not boot into the OS, then it's a huge problem. You may try to restore the phone with HiSuite, but my bet is that you'd better get it to a service - you probably flashed the wrong bootloader.
You might have luck with the recovery though - hold down VOLUME UP and POWER when turning the device on. This might get you ADB, so you might boot into fastboot mode.

Press power, volume-down and connect device to PC simultaneously. You will get into fastboot mode. Flash boot image and recovery image that was exactly from your firmware version.

[Recovery][LG-H960A] TWRP v3.0.2-0 (unofficial)

This is an unofficial TWRP port for LG-H960A.
Thanks to @KAsp3rd and @GROGG88
I DON'T TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY. YOU DO EVERYTHING AT YOUR OWN RISK.
READ EVERYTHING and MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE YOU START.
Instructions:
1. You must be on newest stock Marshmallow: H960A20a_00_0316.kdz
You can use LG Bridge to install official update, or download .kdz file HERE
2. You need to have bootloader ulocked.
Official instructions are here: ( Unlocking the Bootloader @ LG Developer )
Remember that this will completely WIPE YOUR DATA, you will LOSE WARRANTY and this operation is IRREVERSIBLE.
3. Flash TWRP.
I assume you got ADB and FASTBOOT drivers working and adb is paired (it should be if you completed step 2).
Connect your phone to your pc, open command prompt and reboot to bootloader:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Your phone should reboot and you should be welcomed by Fastboot Mode screen.
Now download the recovery file (below) to your pc, unpack (to get .img) and rename it to recovery.img and put it in folder where you got command prompt open and:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
4. Boot to TWRP.
As on Marshmallow some fastboot commands are not working and LG is restoring recovery on every boot (so you cant use "adb reboot recovery" right now) you need to use one trick.
DO NOT REBOOT YOUR PHONE.
When still in fastboot from step 3 you need to turn off your phone completely. You can do that by holding power button or if that is not working take the battery out.
Now (put the battery in) and press POWER + VOL DOWN buttons. When you see LG logo release the POWER button (while still holding VOL DOWN) and press POWER button again.
You should see a screen which is asking you if you want to factory reset your phone. Don't worry - if you made everything correctly it should not wipe your phone.
Use volume and power buttons to choose YES (twice) - and you should see a TWRP screen (after a while)
WARNING: IF YOU REBOOTED YOUR PHONE AFTER FLASHING RECOVERY THIS STEP WILL REALLY ERASE ALL DATA. You need to flash recovery again (step 3)
5. (optional) flash SuperSU to get root.
Get SuperSU from official thread and put it in your phone.
While in TWRP from step 4 your phone should be recognized by ADB. Use below to move file to sdcard.
Code:
adb push BETA-SuperSU-v2.74-2-20160519174328.zip /sdcard/supersu.zip
Now in TWRP click Install, go to /sdcard/ and chooose supersu.zip. Follow instructions. After install you should choose to wipe cache/dalvik and reboot to system.
Your phone should be rooted now.
Download:
twrp-3.0.2.0-0-h960a.img.zip
(unpack .zip to get flashable .img)
Issues:
- Layout is wrong, status bar is being drawn on second screen.
- Date/time is wrong.

OK, now if we have recovery, is it possible to dump rooted system and pack it to .tot file for people who don't want to lose warranty?

Hi,
that's just great, thanks a lot.
As root is now possible has anyone tried to install xposed on th H960A?
I'm wondering if the second screen fix for the Telekom V10 also works with the H960A.
What about Viper4Android and AdAway?

Are there any other known issues? I don`t need to install any custom roms. I need it only for root and xposed on Marshmallow. Is there something that can surprise me?

I'm wondering if the second screen fix for the Telekom V10 also works with the H960A.
What about Viper4Android and AdAway?

Didn't try xposed but I think it should work (if it's working on other V10 models - they are not that different). I just recently bought V10 and was disappointed in dpi, so I needed root to patch second screen to be dpi-independent.
Also: why would you want things like Viper4Android when you got really good sounding hifi dac onboard?

Are there any other known issues? I don`t need to install any custom roms. I need it only for root and xposed on Marshmallow. Is there something that can surprise me?

For sure it's enough to flash packages and get root. Xposed is independent from recovery so I can't say anything about that.
Testing are up to you guys. Don't be afraid as this phone is not easy to brick.

Quite simple answer. The onboard Hifi DAC only works with cable headphones. Viper4Android also supports Bluetooth devices.

Could you write a small guide about the dpi change (I prefer 540-580)?
Thanks in advance.

Ah, you are right, that makes perfect sense. Sorry, I forgot about that.

There is still a long way, right now second screen FCs are fixed, but layouts are still wrong. I don't know if I can fix it to be truly dpi-independent but I think 560 is optimal value for this screen.
Is this working with
H960a
V20a-AME-xx??
1k views and only 11 "thanks"??? Really? Guys! We need support devs! Big THANK YOU for ur hard work @rudi666. I haven't try ur method yet but I am happy with the fact that something is beginning to happen with v10

I did try his method and it worked like a charm. Ok, you'll have to reflash TWRP if you want to use it but I'm sure it's just a matter of time until we have permanent TWRP like th T-Mobile V10 obviously has.
Thanks to rudi666 I have root, xposed, adaway and viper4audio up and running on my V10. And as there are no interesting custom roms to flash in my opinion it does not matter that I'd need to reflash TWRP. If you plan your flashing in advance you can flash all zip files in one go. No real need for TWRP afterwards.
Thanks guys. Unfortunately I see there is not much going on in V10 scene, and it's a shame.

Hm.. if you follow instructions you should get permanent TWRP, just try "adb reboot recovery" to test it if you don't want to risk clearing data when using button combination. There is a file called /system/boot-from-recovery.p which is 'restoring recovery' on every boot (that's why there is an info in instruction about not rebooting your phone the first time), but after all the steps this file will be patched. I don't remember if the first use of TWRP or flashing SuperSU does it, but you should get permanent recovery. If not you can always rename this file manually.

Hi,
I will try that again and see if I can get permanent TWRP. But as I said currently there is no real requirement for that. I flashed SuperSU and both files for xposed when I first booted into recovery and that is all I need at the moment.
i cant enter bootloader

after adb reboot booloader it keeb restart to soft

TWRP update

So I have a rooted Moto X 2014 and I have TWRP installed as the custom recovery. I was wondering if there was any simple way to update TWRP. If anybody knows how to achieve this I would greatly appreaciate a reply! I'm not sure if it makes a difference, but I'm running CM13.
Thanks in advance!

From the twrp.me site:
TWRP Install (Requires TWRP 2.8.4 or higher already installed):
Download the latest TWRP image file (.img) from the download link and boot TWRP. Go to install and find and select the Images... button. Browse to the image that you downloaded and select it. Choose recovery and swipe to flash.

I've used it myself, and it worked fine.

Flash newer version of TWRP(3.0.2-1 is latest and stable) via same fastboot method as you did before.
1) Reboot to bootloader mode. (power off phone then press power and vol. down button simultaneously)
2) on your computer open terminal command and type:
fastboot flash recovery recovery_name.img
3) Boot directly into recovery now, without booting systems or it may be overwritten.
I hope it helps.

Thank you I appreciate it! Do you know if there's a way for me to use the TWRP Manager app to update? (It would be a lot easier).

Thank you! I don't need to wipe anything from my phone before I do this? Does the recovery automatically overwrite the other one?

Never used that. But I guess flashing via fastboot is a lot more easier. Just send one command and voilà....
Updating will not wipe anything, it just replaces the existing recovery. As for using fastboot, that works to, but requires a PC to complete.

Deleted OS and won't flash new

[Rooted/Unlocked bootloader] So I deleted my OS trying to install a new rom (CM) I went into my custom recovery (philz touch 6) and I wiped everything and tried to flash cm. The CM I downloaded didn't install due to an error and when I tried to reboot my device, it stayed on the Warning screen. I've tried to sideload multiple roms (one at a time) and some gave me errors and when I installed the roms from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/development/xt1053-retail-stock-lollipop-flashable-t3155843
it successfully installed but when I went to reboot my device it just shows the warning screen for about 20 seconds and then it will just reboot again and repeat. I have tried to install:
cm-12.1-20160710-NIGHTLY-ghost
cm-12.1-20151117-SNAPSHOT-YOG7DAO1K9-ghost
cm-11-20141115-SNAPSHOT-M12-ghost
flexos_5.1.1_20150425_weekly_ghost
XT1058_RCICA_5.1_LPAS23.12-21.7-1_D
XT1058_RCICA_5.1_LPAS23.12-21.7-1_U
All of the above were attempted to be flashed through sideload
Thanks in advance,
Patrick

Turn off your phone then turn on pressinf power button + volume down
Then you download any stock ROM based in your model, you can get them here: https://firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto X (1st gen-2013)/Stock/
You will install fastboot+adb in your computer(you can find in google a link, it's pretty easy to do). Also you uncompress the .zip (the firmware that you just donwloaded) in the same location as your fastboot.
To flash the stock rom using fastboot you have a guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/ref-return-to-stock-recovery-rooted-t3027079

Thank you so much for your help, although the tutorial you linked is explaining how to install rom from SD card and I was not able to do that, I was however able to extract the files and flash them via CMD and fastboot
