Alright, so I decided to make a thread trying to make it easier for people to find guides so they can easily upgrade to Lollipop. Forums seems a bit messy.
Special thanks to @rolgar20 for helping me out with my XT1063

[UPDATE] If you own a XT1063/64 device, flash this updated lollipop stock rom found here, thanks to @KennyWuLee
[Prerequisites]
First things first, you MUST be using stock 4.4.4 firmwares for your model, or the model you want to update via stock recovery.
CUSTOMS RECOVERY LIKE TWRP O CWM WON'T WORK.
If you never unlocked bootloader, jump to step 5
Note: You can flash the firmware from another model (ex. flash XT1064 on XT1063) to run the specific OTA for that software, though is NOT RECOMMENDED
Download Motorola Drivers for Windows
Take a look at the stock firmwares (Links down)(thanks to @lost101) and download the file meant for your model.
New Links http://motofirmware.com/files/category/38-titan/ (Download 21.85.17 for XT1063 and XT1064, thanks to MotoFirmware)
Download adb/fastboot files
Note: You can skip this step following THIS guide (thanks to @Shawn5162)
Unzip both stock firmware and fastboot in the same folder, shift+right click on the screen and click on "open command prompt from here" and run these commands one by one
Code:
fastboot.exe flash logo logo.bin
fastboot.exe flash boot boot.img
fastboot.exe flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
fastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
fastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
fastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
fastboot.exe flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot.exe erase modemst1
fastboot.exe erase modemst2
fastboot.exe flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot.exe erase cache
fastboot.exe erase userdata
Boot your device, then download and copy to internal sdcard the OTA file FOR YOUR MODEL from the following links below
XT1063 Global Single Sim Version
[OTA] Moto G 2014 XT1063 v22.11.6 Android Lollipop (thanks to @Taimur Akmal / @KennyWuLee )
XT1064 Consumer Cellular (US Single Sim)
[OTA] Moto G 2014 XT1064 v22.11.6 (thanks to @surenzxx)
Power off your device and get into fastboot mode, then choose "Recovery"
A broken android logo should appear, press and hold VolUP+VolDwn, then press and release the power button
Recovery options should appear, select "Choose update from sdcard" and use your ota file.
Wait until it finishes upgrading and voilá, you have Lollipop (Note: Updating takes about 5-10mins and the first boot almost the same time)
UPDATE: The new 22.11.6 Lollipop OTA can be found here for XT1063 thanks to @KennyWuLee and @Taimur Akmal, just flash it via stock recovery with a clean stock lollipop firmware. (If update fails, flash stock Kitkat, boot, flash 1st OTA, boot, flash 2nd OTA and you're done....)
There's a guide for XT1068 using a XT1063 firmware
XT1068
Lollipop 2-Sim Working with XT1063 OTA (thanks to @luisjoseb)
Rooting Lollipop
XT1063 - XT1068
Check the CF-AutoRoot website and look for your model at the end.
Code:
Just unzip the file, boot your phone into fastboot mode (power + vol dwn for about 3 seconds) and open root-windows.bat
Note: Tested on XT1063 and it gets stuck in bootloop (maybe I'm doing something wrong?)
Edit: Bootloop issue is partually fixed. Sometimes it loops 2-3 times and after 5-10mins it boots normally.
XT1064
XT1064 Lollipop Root (thanks to @savoca)
Good to see everything essential like Upgrading to Lollipop 5.0 & Rooting Lollipop 5.0 in a single thread :thumbup:
HOW CAN I DOWNGRADE from lollipop aws to kitkat glb and then again upgrade to Lol gib
Hi, I had originally an xt1063 Blur_Version.21.11.17.titan_retuglb.retuglb.en.US
yesterday I flashed Blur_Version.21.11.17.titan_retuaws.retuaws.en.US
And then upgrade to Lollipop retuaws.retuaws.en.US
But CF Auto root does not work (shows waiting for device)
I installed TWRP 2801 recovery and flashed SuperSU. But before it, I tried flashing xt1064 root.img. It makes the root checker to show my device as xt1064 and supersu was not working fine. So, I unroot using SuperSu, the binary files are deleted, but supersu remains the same.
I then today found retuglb.retuglb.en.US OTA, but I cannot downgrade to Blur_Version.21.11.17.titan_retuglb.retuglb.en.US.
HOW CAN I DOWNGRADE?
Flash the stock firmware through fastboot commands (those shown above, use those fastboot files, not mfastboot). It will say boot downgraded but it's fine. You won't be able to lock the bootloader again though, but you can flash stock xt1063 then update to lollipop.
Isn't stock recovery enough?
Quick question: do I have to flash the stock firmware and apply OTA zip? I am pretty much stock+twrp+root+xposed. If I uninstall xposed and flash the stock recovery, will I not be able to OTA from within the ROM?
The phone is now prompting me for OTA every now and then. This is 1064 model.
If you got the official update via ota and you have a custom recovery, update just won't work. Xposed doesn't work on Lollipop, it's not ART compatible yet. You should at least flash the stock recovery.img via fastboot to succesfully update, but in my opinion you should clean install the stock firmware before updating.
Is lollipop on our moto g showing the same problems that N5 users have been reporting? Especially the WiFi problems. I have no idea yet as it's not rolled out here in the UK yet.
Lollipop on the n5 works flawlessly. The n5 users complaining about bugs, including the WiFi bug, don't know how to install it properly. By properly I mean via fastboot, 1 image at a time. They dirty flash, or use scripts, and then complain that things aren't working properly.
---------- Post added at 03:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:45 PM ----------
As for it working on the moto g, I'm not sure because my wife hates change and won't install the ota
Could a mod please move this to the Android Developer section? I think it fits better there.
it does not work

It won't work because you're trying to apply an update for the XT1063 retglb using a retla firmware.
You'll have to flash stock firmware for XT1063 retglb then apply the OTA, though I wouldn't recommend that.

Hi I'm using CC 21.11.23.titan_ccaws.AWSCC.en.US cc (XT1064)
I have flashed it with MotoFlash3.2 with Blur_Version.21.11.17.titan_retuaws.retuaws.en.US and tried to use Blur_Version.21.11.17.titan_retuaws.retuaws.en.US (Lollipop) to update it says fail at "/system/app/3c_main.apk" has unexpected contents. Installation aborted.
Any suggestions thanks?
EDIT* I think I figured it out. First you have to unlock bootloader with Motorola website then you can flash with Motoflash with Blur_Version.21.11.17.titan_retuaws.retuaws.en.US. Then download the Blur_Version.21.11.17.titan_retuaws.retuaws.en.US and update files in recovery. Hopefully this all works.
is there no ETA fot the official update (update by phone) of Lollipop? Thanks

There are still some bugs on those OTA files, they were meant for a soak test even though Motorola said it's official. Earlier today, I had no volume when making or receiving calls. I went back to KitKat and now I'm waiting for an official release (no date yet, afaik)

A and B should work on ANY XT1068 as it's a Retail for ALL Dual sim, (it may or may not have certain languages) but if you can find your original firmware it's a easy job to add the automated script

I dont think so as you can still download OTA with modified Roms, but you need Stock recovery to install - but if it worries you edit the .bat script to remove the line with logo2.bin in it near end of script.
if we cant OTA install, but have a OTA zip of Lollipop we can modify it and just flash it via mfastboot method anyway

I don't know, I'm quite new to Motorola phones but I read in this forum more than once that for OTA updates (atleast for the lollipop one) you must have a completely stock rom, even a frozen system app would make the update fail to install.

Yes,I have bootloader already locked
as of 14/01/2015 firmware B is Accepting OTA zip update (copy to internal memory AND SDCARD ) to Lollipop 5.0.2 from india
bro can you please upload Firmware KXB21.85.23 (DSDS ALL) to google drive as some people are not able to access mediafire??!!
By now, with all the OTA's, unless you are brand new to the 2013 X, you know you have to have stock recovery on your phone for an OTA Update or Soak Test to install, and your system can't be modified too much or it will fail the pre-flash validation checks built into the OTA.zip. (i.e. there is a manifest file that checks for specific files and their check sums before it will flash the ota).
If you have an unlocked bootloader, and rooted by flashing a 3rd party recovery (like TWRP, CWM, Philz, etc) and installing SuperSU, you likely didn't put stock recovery back on your phone.
IF you are close enough to stock (like I am... stock, unlocked, rooted, with adfree, wifi tether for root, greenify, Quick boot, and a few other apps that require root), you can just flash stock recovery and take the OTA.
The steps in this post help you do that, or get ready to do that, in case you are not near your PC when an OTA comes, of if you just don't want to use your PC.
NOTE: If you have changed too much of stock that the OTA fails, please see -> [FAQ] How to prepare for and take an OTA update (All Carriers)
NOTE: the following worked when updating 4.4 to 4.4.2, and 4.4.2 to 4.4.4 on my VZW Dev Edition X. Since Lollipop has not yet been released for my phone, I can't test this yet.
Note: If you have flashed your phone with another carrier's ROM, or have only flashed "parts" of your phone, these steps may not work!! Or they may cause you to brick!
NOTE: If your Bootloader version does NOT match the one for your phone's software version, taking an OTA could brick your phone!
You must have an Unlocked Bootloader and be rooted for these steps to work:
Obtain the STOCK Moto Recovery image, and TWRP image, for your phone:
On you phone, go App Drawer -> Settings... Make note of what is listed under System Version, and Android Version.
Visit one of the sites listed in -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/info-tip-web-sites-official-leaked-roms-t2923347 and obtain the EXACT same ROM/SBF file that is currently on your phone. Download the ZIP to your PC.
Unzip or extract the RECOVERY.IMG file from the SBF ZIP file.
Download the latest TWRP Recovery from -> http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/234 (under the Download-Fastboot heading)
the latest SuperSU from -> http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu or the latest CWM / TWRP / MobileODIN installable ZIP from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053
Flashing Recovery
Place your stock recovery.img, the latest TWRP img, and the latest SuperSU.zip in your phone's DOWNLOAD folder.
Install Rashr.
On your phone, launch Rashr.
Scroll down and select other from storage
Browse and select your stock recovery
When it completes, pick the option to reboot to stock recovery.
Your device should reboot and display the Motorola logo and then the Android in distress (logo with Exclamation mark)
Press and hold the VOL UP key for 10-15 seconds. While still holding the VOL UP key tap and release the POWER key. You should be in Stock recovery now.
Reboot your phone as normal.
To reflash TWRP or other custom recovery, as long as you are still rooted, you can repeat the same steps, selecting your custom recovery in step 5.
How to SIDE LOAD an OTA.ZIP via this process
If your carrier has started the push of the OTA ZIP for your phone, but you haven't received it, and you've found the correct OTA ZIP posted online and would like to flash it, the following steps can be used...
Download the OTA ZIP file (usually named as BLUR_XXX.XXX.XXX.zip, where XXX.XXX.XXX is the build number the ZIP will update) to your phone's /SDCard
Perform steps 1-7 under Flashing Recovery above to flash STOCK recovery onto your phone, and reboot into Stock Recovery.
Use the Vol Down key to scroll to Apply Update From SDCard, and press the Power key to select.
Use Vol Down key to scroll to your OTA zip file, and press Power to select.
The install will begin by verifying the update package, then verifying files on your phone match.
If the install fails, it will be reported on the screen, along with why. (usually because you have modified system files, or are not on the correct ROM version). You need to fix these errors and try again.
If verifications are successful, the patching process steps will begin. This may take several minutes.
Your phone should report Script Succeeded and Install from sdcard Complete.
Ensure Reboot System Now is highlighted, and press the Power key to reboot the phone.
The initial reboot may take longer than a regular reboot.
Note: You will see Android Is Upgrading or Optimizing screen during the boot process, that is normal.
After the update install process is complete, use Rashr to flash TWRP (again, other from storage and pick your TWRP). When prompted, reboot into recovery (so twrp sticks). When in TWRP, select reboot to system.
If you lost root, reboot into TWRP recovery and install SuperSU.zip
How to Root with unlocked bootloader...
If you unlocked your bootload by getting the code from Moto, after taking the OTA you may root by following ->http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/how-to-how-to-root-5-1-unlocked-t3140217 NOTE: while the thread is titled for 5.1, it works on older Android versions as well.
Good work KidJoe :laugh::good:
I guess this will be more relevant as Soaks start heading out for the 2013 X...
Good post. Can I use the same process on MotoX 2014 pure? I have turned Moto OTA to get rid of constant "update available" notification, if I turn that back on, do you know where the OTA zip file is downloaded (i'm thinking cache )

Yes, the OTA zip is usually stored in /cache (at least is is on the 2013 X, and my past Moto phones). it is usually named for the rom it is upgrading, not what the upgrade takes you to.
I don't see why this wont work on the 2014 X, as it did on older motos too.

In TWRP you can make a nandroid backup. I've never done it. I haven't had need because I run stock. If I need to reflash, I just reflash the same SBF I've been running.

What ROM is on you phone to start with? On your phone go App Drawer -> Settings -> About.. tell me the Android Version, System Version and Build Number. Also what model X do you have?
213.44.1.ghost_row.Retail.en.US is an XT1053 4.4.4 update file for the XT1053 if I'm not mistaken. It is meant to be applied to a 4.4.3 stock rom, and it might apply to a 4.4.2 stock rom..
The OTA file will fail its pre-flash validation checks if you are not on the intended stock rom.

Thank you. I'm embarrassed that I didn't perform sufficient due diligence. I am already on the same system version as the update (213.44.1.ghost_row.Retail.en.US ), which I mistakenly thought was to get to Lollipop from 4.4.4.
there any way to make a dump the stock recovery in Lollipop, without the need root?

It's ABSOLUTELY BEST you avoid the update............but....
If you can't, it is highly recommended that you clean flash it...kind of the only choice. Flash the 4.4.4 Brazilian stock ROM. And install the update from recovery. You can reroot after adding TWRP back.
I am also on stock rom 4.4.4. But i dont have this rom on my pc for reflashing. Please provide link for download or some info related to it

As explained elsewhere... Xposed makes changes to /system which cause OTA updates to fail their pre-flash validation checks.
It is recommended to boot to TWRP and install /SDcard/Android/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/files/Xposed-Disable-Recovery.zip then uninstall XPosed.
You will also need to undo any changes to /system or other parts the the OTA tries to validate before installing, or else it will fail.
You are correct that a newer version of Xposed is needed.
You may also want to wait on trying the 5.0.2 Leaks because if they are an early limited early test version, rather than a soak which is nearly ready to be pushed to all, you could be stuck on this version until an SBF leaks.

Good job!
Can I use this installer when my XT1032 is running Blisspop 2.1 (5.0.2) with TWRP already? Or this can be used only on stock non-rooted device.
thx

Yep, you can use it but make a backup from your personal files (videos, pictures, music, etc.) because it'll wipe your data and internal storage.
Do you have UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip on it's own? I have installed GPE_5.1_XT1032_LMY47M.M001_CFC.xml.zip and TWRP as well seperatly but just need to root it. So just need that file not complete ROM
---------- Post added at 11:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:56 PM ----------
error in rom batch file, it's pointing to windows\system32 and failing
also read should use mfastboot not fastboot?
also your mfastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.6.0-falcon.img is non GPE version when I flash with yours I get vsync like tearing. Flash to twrp-2.8.6.0-falcon_GPE.img and stable screen
Superuser works
Will I have any problem if after flashing this I'll try to flash the stock motorola 5.1 fw when it wii be out?
Hello,
Thanks for taking your time to create this.
I have already updated my moto G 1032 to lollipop 5.1 using a method as shown in the attachment.
Do i need to do the entire process again?
Maybe it's a stupid question but, will this work for the xt1034 version?
To be more specific and avoid future questions like this, does every rom for the xt1032 work for xt1034?
Thank you

Noone can know that when there is no Moto 5.1 firmware yet.
But i assume that the battery life as well as performance should be almost equal. (If they don't screw it up ...I hope they won't)
Flash_GPE_5.1.bat errors
I'm on Motorola stock 5.02 firmware and I'm getting errors when running Flash_GPE_5.1.bat process. It seems I'm getting error for the following command line:-
fastboot.exe flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot.exe erase cache
fastboot.exe oem fb_mode_clear
Are these errors critical or can I just ignore them.
Factory Reset?
Hi, I'm currently on 5.1 GPe with 41.19 stock Bootloader, no Root, just unlocked BL . I followed a Youtube video and everything runs great BUT.. i can't do factory reset on the device (must be done via fastboot).
Is it possible to Factory Reset with your guide/rom?, if yes... Can I reinstall your ROM over the one I currently have?
Thanks in advance mate. Great Job.

I have been unable to install the update. Was with custom recovery and root and tried to install it and failed. Did factory reset, install stock recovery, download again the OTA from phone an try to install it and did not work.
Used the guide to go back to the stock firmware (though I already had it)
Try to install it using stock recovery, threw and error. (books.apk blabla).
Don't know what problems could yo be facing but man, this has been tough.
EDIT:
Just figured it out! The problem was exactly that I was already using the stock ROM and deleted some system APKs.
After trying going back to the really stock one once again (first I did not flash system images) it is installing correctly!
Btw this is my mirror for those who prefer using MEGA servers.

Where can I get the stock 4.4 so I can upgrade? I need stock recovery too.
I have problems to update too. XT1032, Retail US. As a first information, I have KK 4.4.4
I managed to download the update from my mobile (zipfile Blur_Version.210.12.61.falcon_umts.Retail.en.US, I already transferred to my PC thanks to Root Explorer), but when I go to "install now" and reboot, trying to install from zip file, pops a message from my recovery (PhilzTouch) Error Status 7. My phone is rooted by SU v2.46
So, what are the exactly step-by-step guide. I will appreciate that. Greetings from Chile

That's the one I flashed following the guide to flash stock firmware in this forum and then updated with the OTA I posted before (I suppose the one of the topic is the same)
Finally, it's out!

Followed your steps:
- Flashed my phone (XT1032) with Retail US 4.4.4 Stock (RETAIL_XT1032_4.4.4_KXB21.14-L1.61_cid9_CFC.xml) using CMD, fastboot, typing list of files, etc.
- Updated some Motorola apps. Noticed Super SU is already included and installed by default, no way to uninstall it.
- Downloaded to my computer the OTA file (Blur_Version.210.12.61.falcon_umts.Retail.en.US), then moved OTA file to SD Card
- Turn off mobile
. Reboot in stock recovery, with the robot and the exclamation sign.
- Try to apply update from SD card with the file previously loaded on it (Blur_Version.210.12.61.falcon_umts.Retail.en.US)
- At verifying update package, update stops popping a message. The message in yellow is:
Package expects build fingerprint of motorola/falcon_retuglb/falcon_umts:4.4.4/KXB21.14-L1.61/62:user/release-keys or motorola/falcon_retuglb/falcon_umts:5.0.2/LXB22.99-36/35: user/release-keys; this device has motorola/falcon_retuglb/falcon_umts:4.4.2/KXB

In the SU menu you can find a way to delete the root, but I don't think that is causing the error.
Can you please tell me the version of recovery your phone have? You may have installed a kit kat 4.4.2 recovery or one with a different build number and that's causing the error.
IKXB21.14-L1.61
In the recovery menu, you should see the .61. I got the same problem as you and was using .32.
Did full factory reset, and installed stock again (w/o updating anything at all), when I checked the recovery, it was .61 and it updated perfectly.
In case you are really sure you got the actual last kitkat update firmware, you can try to extract the recovery.img and flash it using moto tool,
(rename it to StockKitkatrecovery.img and replace the one it brings with this one)

I solved my problem by myself, thanks anyway. The issue for me, was updating some apps once in 4.4.4. You should not to do it.
Explanation for dummies, as me, in order to get Lollipop 5.0.2:
1) Flash your phone (XT1032) with Retail US 4.4.4 Stock (RETAIL_XT1032_4.4.4_KXB21.14-L1.61_cid9_CFC.xml), as it follows:
A) Extract the Retail US 444. Stock zip file (475 MB)
B) Download this file too: (1,5 MB) https://www.dropbox.com/s/nlbrn71wfqyup4u/mfastboot-v2.zip?dl=0 , and unzip it inside the same folder as you extracted Retail US Stock zip file. All files together in the same path.
C) Put your phone on fastboot (turn off, and then press Vol-and Power 3 secs, and release both buttons). Connect your phone to USB port.
D) Inside the folder containing all all these files, press **** + right click and choose "open file command", and a CMD window will open.
E) Once in CMD window, execute one by one:
mfastboot flash boot boot.img
mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
mfastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot erase modemst1
mfastboot erase modemst2
mfastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot erase cache
mfastboot erase userdata
mfastboot reboot
F) After reboot, unplug phone from USB port.
G) Done, you have now Stock Retail US 4.4.4 installed on your phone, Turn it on and set all things in order to go to home screen.
2)Once in the main screen , don't update your apps, no matter if they are even from Google or Motorola, don't do it
3) Download to your PC the OTA file (372 MB) Blur_Version.210.12.61.falcon_umts.Retail.en.US
4) Connect again your phone to USB port , and move OTA file to your phone SD Card
5) Once done previous step, go to Stock Recovery Mode. It is:
A)Turn Off your phone
B) Press Power and Vol- for 3 secs, then release
C) Select with vol- recovery option, and confirm it with vol+ button
D) Android Robot with exclamation sign will show up on the screen
E) Press vol+ and vol- for 5 secs, then press power once and release all the 3 buttons at the same time
F) Recovery Stock will appear you now.
6) Apply update from SD card with the file previously loaded on it (Blur_Version.210.12.61.falcon_umts.Retail.en.US). Select OTA file on "apply update from zip file".
7) Process will take up to 10-15 minutes aproximately. Voilá, you will have Lollipop 5.0.2 on your RetailUS mobile.
Hope it will be useful for dummies, like me. Thanks.
Greetings from Chile.
Perfect
I had same issue and after all these steps my phone updated perfectly.
Many thanks.:good:

You cannot downgrade the 41.19 bootloader to the 41.13. If you try to do that you WILL hardbrick your phone. However you can downgrade from Lollipop to Kitkat 4.4.4 (I know because I am on the 41.19 bootloader and was on cm 12.1 but restored to 4.4.4 successfully).
You have to flash the firmware for your phone except for the gpt.bin and motoboot.img. Flash all the other files in the firmware for your phone without those two and you should be fine.

I'll never flash stuffs with Motorola recovery! Today I did a factory reset with the stock recovery and damn! it deleted all my files in the internal SD! IT would have never happened if I would have factory reset with TWRP!
I'll wait for lost101's zip!
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please do some research before flashing it!

Here's the flashable image for andriod 6.0 on XT 1097/1092 devices, without the need to flash radio files to make it work with Indian networks (should work on other XT1092 devices) . Thanks to "Uchoaz10" who posted the image in thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/development/rom-installation-rsd-t3263800 , rather than using RSD flash the image , you can use my custom made Batch file to flash the rom.
Unzip the image and flash fresh zip into one folder and follow below steps.
Instructions
1) Power off device
2) Boot to boot loader ( press power and Volume down for few seconds and let go)
3) connect to computer via USB
4) Run Flash fresh .bat file
5 ) Reboot device
Note : If your stuck in boot loop , reboot to bootloader and select recovery (press volume up) , do an factory reset and reboot.
Use this method to root - http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/development/root-root-moto-x-2014-android-t3249105 thanks to "Junior Passos"

The 6.0 OTA that got released was for brazil , to flash the OTA you had to convert your phone to XT 1097 first and then flash the OTA . When flashed the OTA , mobile network would not work till correct radios are flashed . With the above method you do not need to convert to XT 1097 or flash radios (atleast for carriers in India)
should I do anything extra if I have a XT1092 ? Just run the bat file?

FYI the exact same firmware works flawlessly on my retde 1092, I installed it through the TWRP backup though. No extra hassle, everything worked on first boot
Its working on my indian XT1092 ! , as accepted it shows the model as XT1097

Exactly.
Does it need a stock recovery to work, or can I flash it with TWRP installed ?
It needs nothing but unlocked bootloader. You can flash via stock recovery. I just did it, and it works just fine. However, I had to do factory reset after installing it as too many apps were crashing. Dirty flash is no replacement for OTA update.
Well, I have just the opposite : I have TWRP installed, and I wanted to know if that was a problem.
You can just flash via fastboot. No recovery needed.

So, I took the jump and flashed the rom using your file. It seems to have worked just fine, even if right now, it's hanging on the app optimizing part.
Thanks anyway !
