[OTA] Moto G 2014 XT1064 v22.21.25.en.us (5.0.1)

I just got the new OTA for Lolipop 5.0.1. I used ADB to pull the URL for the download and downloaded the attached ZIP using my browser. The URL pulled from ADB was an extremely long randomized string of characters that expired the moment my device was done updating. It seems the link is only active during the update process, so the only way to leave the link active longer is to battery pull or something in the middle of the update. I love you guys... but not that much
Keep in mind that this OTA was offered to me on 22.21.16, so I am assuming that you probably need to be on that update before you can use this OTA.
Let me know if you guys have any questions or run into any issues!

I'm rooted and running TWRP on my XT1064 with 22.21.16. Is there a way to just fastboot flash this update? I don't mind losing root. Thanks!

Okay, I had upgraded to 22.21.16 via TWRP using KennyWuLee's packaged tool. This morning I received a notice that I had an update available for 22.21.25. So like a dummy I went ahead and accepted. Now all it does is boot into TWRP. When I restart to system from TWRP it boots up just fine then after about 15 seconds reboots to TWRP.
I assume it is looking for the stock recovery which will then allow me to install the update? So will I be safe to go ahead and reflash the stock recovery, reboot and go from there? Or should I go all the way back to stock everything?
I have an XT1063.
Edit: I went ahead and flashed stock recovery and rebooted. After boot looping several times it rebooted into the system and gave me the message "Software update unsuccessful. There was a problem ....blah, blah, blah." But I still show an update available when I check.
I suspect it is because I am unlocked and rooted, even though I have stock recovery installed. Any thoughts on this guys? I am going to hold fast until I know for sure.

The update failed because you were rooted. You need a 100% stock /system since updates after 5.0 check the integrity of the filesystem before updating.

I may sound like a noob, but just to be sure..
Name of update says ".en.us".
Is it ok to use it for a french moto G 2d generation?
French will be available?
Thanks!!

Not sure if it makes a difference or not. I just put what the build was listed as when I got the update notification.
I put that there in case that was why some people couldn't update from 22.21.6 to 22.21.16

Nice theory, but I am now totally restored back to stock with stock recovery and unrooted. Still no luck with the update. Same thing happens.

I'm still stuck on 22.11.6, so I'm assuming I can't install this update until I'm on 22.21.16?

[Solved] OTA update fails on Yoga Tab 2 1050F

Hi,
i have the Yoga Tab2 1050F. The last OTA update fails to install.
I am currently on S100067_1507101258 and the update is for S100196_1511230539.
All earlier OTA's installed fine. I had my Tab rooted, but i unrooted it before installing the OTA update.
I also did a factory reset, the update still fails.
I only get an "Error" on the display with the tilted android avatar.
I saved the last OTA file, which is around 50MB large.
I also tried an update via the internal sd and the external sd card. None of these helped.
Can anyone help find the cause and help me install the latest update?
Regards
Jay

the thing is that not always the 'unroot' works for doing a system update, the unroot (have you performed the full one?) could leave behind modified binaries or maybe apps you installed have did that (for eg if you installed busybox it will leave the new binary) and the first step of the OTA update is to do a check of all the files that are going to be updated (patched) and if one of them doesn't match the sha1 checksum the update will abort (will not change anything on your tab when aborting). you can fix it by:
1. (complicated) restore the orginal files (you can check the recovery log on your cache partition to see where it failed)
2. (recommended) flash a stock rom matching your existing Android (you are on lollipop so you can use this for a stock lollipop install)
ps. factory reset doesn't save, that one just erases 'data' partition, has nothing to do with the ota (that usually updates files on the 'system' one or the 'boot/recovery/fastboot' partitions)

Thanks ionioni for your answer.
I don't want to flash a stock rom, that is not OTA. Just for security reasons. This would be my last resort.
I prefer to "repair" it. I am familiar with your tmp-root tool.
Do i have to mount something when i am in tmp-root, to search the su root files?
I think they reside in /system/lib and /system/bin.

if you start with tmp_root it will open an early adb shell as root (regardless of whether your tab was or not rooted)
check after you shell in to see if the /cache is mounted (input a simple mount) and if it is not you need to mount it
afterwards you will need to go and do an adb pull on your recovery log (if i recall is on /cach/recovery ) and check inside to find on what did the ota failed
however this is cumbersome and even if you find on what it fails you still will have to find the original files (and after you try to OTA again it can fail many more times on other files as the OTA is aborted on the first non matching file and if there are many you will need to repeat these steps over again). i never did this, i am just saying that it could be done, but why would one waset maybe hours just so he can bring his system back to the same state it could bring in 3 minutes by flashing a stock rom? but if you want the complicated way feel free
if i were you i would just flash the stock rom in 3 minutes (that is how long it takes) and move along
what security reasons you are talking about?

I am just carefull. The images might be tampered.
But i get your point. It might get cumbersome to fix each file.
I'll try your method and flash the lollipop image.

oh, i see... i doubt they are tampered by anyone (except Lenovo of course ) the files i provide have already been used by others (and if they were to be tampered they would have failed future OTA's, the boot image is checked and it won't load if modified etc)
as a personal thought, to tamper a stock rom (to whatever purpose one would want) so that they cannot be detected by a future ota requires a level of knowledge that i think keeps us safe (i think one who is able to do such a thing would not 'waste' his time and resources on doing it to a normal/casual user like we are), so if you are able to take ota's you can safely assume that the files are the ones Lenovo put in there (not to say that Lenovo could not do funny things tho)
i wish you to become so important that one day this could be a real concern

yeah you are right.
thanks for your support. i managed to update my tablet.

Hi. I have the same problem. Did you have flash lollipop firmware again ? the ota works ?
Do you know where to get lollipop firmware for 1050F ? in all-in-one subject there is only kitkat firmware for 1050F.
Thank you.

Nexus 7 2012 OTA Update on Rooted Device Error Status 7

Hey guys,
Actually my Rooted device with unlocked Boot Loader is running on Kitkat with build number KTU84P. I am trying to finally Updating the System after it tell me all the Time "Your system have an update on the 5.0.2" and to hopefully get the bugs away from this System Version.... My system run not smooth enough for me actually....
Well if I try to Update OTA i get everytime the Error Status 7, i guess that caused of that my Boot Loader is unlocked, but i won't to lock it just to be able to Update it on an newer version.
I was already looking for another CM Version for my Device who is maybe working better than my actual System, but didn't found anything really who was made me happy... So I am still looking, the most of Version here are just Beta, i want a system with no or very less bugs, well the best will be a final CM version..... Or is it another Way to do the OTA Update on a Rooted Device and maybe after that just reinstall SU and get SU right back?
Thank you in Advance for your help.
Edit: For clearance, it is a WiFi Only Device

No, it's not because of your unlocked bootloader but due to the boot and/or system partition modified e.g. by installing SuperSU / busybox / etc.
The only way to get the OTA is flashing original images, applying the OTA and then flash SuperSU again ... but that doesn't make much sense. It's much more easy to directly fastboot flash the factory image.

Thank you for your answer, how's "fastboot flash" working? Will i flash the New Android img or just rechange the Boot/sys partition to be able to install another OTA android version?
I guess actually the easiest way will maybe be to just install CM/omsi and use a custom made Android Build... If you tell me its easier, but idk which kind i can use without any issues.....

Original Shield tab 4.1 OTA update

Doesn't seem like there will be a US LTE version again... hoping there will be a RoW version that someone will eventually create a flashable zip...

Hey Guys -
Yeah, just saw this was available for my Original Shield Tablet (rooted) few minutes ago. Aside from wiping and installing OS all over again, what's the best method to upgrade and ensuring I still have root afterwards + retain installed apps & settings?
I use an SD card in Internal mode if that makes a difference. Thanks!

Just got the Notication for the wx-un-do upgrade.
Now looking for the full ota update.
Send from my .I. .I.

Don't worry, it doesn't seem to work. OTA downloads, boots and back into system again. Asks to download ota again, version number unchanged. I've tried it 3 times already.
Whatever Nividia can do wrong, they will do wrong. It's so frequent it's no longer funny.

When you are rooted and have a custom recovery installed you need the full Ota zip file.
The incremental ota update won't work.

If you're telling me, then my device is unrooted, stock everything. Not just me, got another guy on the Shield forums saying the same thing hehe.....
on a side note, mine is a ROW LTE. Maybe those with wifi sets have better luck. But the other guy I mentioned has a wifi set, and it didn't work for him.

You have a custom recovery installed?

I search the full WiFi EU ROM. Can anybody help me

Have no intention to root this one because the battery replaced old version is already rooted.

Be patient. It will come. many still asleep now.

When we have the full OTA zip then the link will be posted here immediately 4sure.

Yea, I saw mine had the 4.1 update and decided to wait to sideload it and not do the OTA update. Waiting for a TWRP version.

C'mon, RoW LTE version... can't wait

You should be able to do a FULL OTA download, offload it - then TWRP it.

Once they post it on their site, we'll be able to flash it one way or another, just a matter of time. I'm disappointed it's only through the Mar update though...

Release notes here:
https://shield.nvidia.com/support/shield-tablet/release-notes/1

Incremental OTA works just fine on rooted tab + TWRP. Just keep in mind that it will replace your recovery for the stock one and you will loose root.

Worked fine for me. Completely stock.

Didn't work for me on stock row lte rom with multirom. Does go into mr twrp but fails install with an error 7.

Snah001's posting #24 of 2016.05.13.Fr.09:35 PM solved it all.

massive problems with ERROR:7

Hello,
I'm having big problems flashing any ROM on my Oneplus 5 atm.
At the beginning of this month, I wanted to unroot my rooted Android 8.0 or 8.1 (One of them, it was OxygenOS, but not the newest version)+ Xposed Oneplus 5.
I got a couple of errors, most of the time error 7.
After hours, old and new recoverys (TWRP) from blu_spark, codeworkx and some xda user recoverys and diffrent OxygenOS versions i finally managed it to install a Oxygen version with Android 7.1.1 on the phone. The Problem was: I always got errors (Installation failed) when I wanted to intall Software Updates no matter if I tryed it by myself or with the official system update in android.
So and today the official beta build of OxygenOS for 9.0 released and I was so stupid and thought I can make this an easy one.
Now I'm sitting here since 9:30am and try to flash Android 9, or any Android except 7.1.1 (only Oxygen Versions). Most of the Time i'm getting ERROR:7, it doesnt matter with which Recovery or Build.
When I got this problem at the first Time, my Phone was shown as "" (The error was something like: This Package is for a "Oneplus 5" this is a "").
When I get this scentence now (not every Recovery is showing it) it says my Phone is a "OnePlus5T", but i have a Oneplus 5.
Also (maybe partly) important things are:
- I tryed to edit the updater-script and delete the assets lines but there were no asset lines. Tryed it anyways and it didnt work. (and i really dont want to try this again)
I tryed to google this error for hours and many people meant that this is the way to go but I dont belive it. Isn't there any way to rename my phone, if yes: what do I have to do? I have TWRP and access to the command prompt aswell. If anyone can successfully create the 9.0 beta without the assets I would be happy but i dont think that is the solution for my problem, just a workaround.
- I think the problem is just something about my devices name. The strange part is that it accepted 7.1.1. And this was 100% a Oneplus 5 ROM.
- 7.1.1 isnt the way to go for me anymore. I dont like android 7 and it has so old security patches..
- Fingerprint sensor and screen got replaced
thank you for reading this and maybe helping me. I dont have the best language skills, if you need more Information about my Phone, please ask
EDIT1: As I said, 7.1.1 is still successfull, i tryed it a couple of mins ago. no error 7 or sth

maybe you can try revert to fully stock setup{without TWRP) and update to pie?

I have problem with error 7 when i tried to flash latest open beta (pie). I didn't find any solution.... :crying:

Make sure the download isn't corrupt or if you extract the compatibility.zip use a recommended tool.

I had this problem couple of months ago. I solved it by flashing an old os version then flashing stock recovery(I don't remember if I locked the bootloader). boot in to the phone and download and update through ota( I did 3 updates this way). Then install twrp and root. Now I can flash any oos update without error 7.

May work
This is a post I wrote for another thread. I have found that this method fixes the error 7 issue, and allows you to update all the way to Pie without issues. When updating to Pie, use 7-Zip, not winrar or any other non-recommended programs to remove compatibility.zip from the firmware archive before flashing. I found that winrar causes treble errors or error 7.

That's good, It's good advice. I am just stressing to everyone in this thread, how important it is to follow that and use a recommended tool to remove compatibility.zip because removing compatibility.zip sounds very trivial thing, but it's actually really important to use a tool like 7-Zip that doesn't break the firmware in the process.
Also, the link to my other post ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78523940&postcount=13 ) should be detailed and comprehensive enough to help people with error 7 in other scenarios or that are trying to update to oreo or other stock firmwares too. This method restores the phone back to factory condition, including all the partitioning. Updating with a locked bootloader can fix a lot of update errors. I've found that after 5.1.5 it is safe to unlock the bootloader and take updates. But as you mentioned, for an unlocked bootloader, compatibility.zip needs to be removed from the firmware archive, and a tool such as 7-Zip must be used to do so as other archive managers break the update entirely (with error 7).
Good luck everyone trying to update, hope our advice helps :good:

So I flashed OOS 5.0.1 then went back to stock recovery. I then locked my bootloader. After which I booted into OxygenOS and updated it all the way to pie(took 3 OTAs). Now I've got a locked bootloader and pie but I'm wondering if the process to unlock the bootloader is the same or different now that there is a vendor drive?
