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

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.

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 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
appears installation aborted :crying::crying:

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)

Can i just flash the stockfirmware? i have the lock the bootloader. 'Cause mu phone is new...
The IMG is made for Moto X 2nd Gen sold in China mainland aka " XT1085" which was released a week ago. Major retailers in China have started to sell since Feb 5.
I can confirm the system also works well on my XT1095 pure edition,however Moto engineers have removed almost all of the google apps and services and implemented some key features with native chinese apps,like Moto Voice. Most of the bloatwares can be easily removed except a security app of lenovo and a voice assistant named Linxi.
You can get the full IMG from a mirror server in china or file factory
Mega
md5sum: 95306D8D80B1F60285E14D2A6FD7F4F0
XT1095 pure edition users can flash the boot.img and system.img via Fastboot utility.(1.Please backup your data before doing this!
2. Just flash the boot.IMG and all system image chunk files. Don't flash other partitions especially GPT and Bootloader,otherwise you would upgrade BL to 0x6012.)
As the Google apps, we can find many flashable zips in the forum,like @TKruzze's PA Gapps packages.

It should work since there is almost no big difference in android system between 1095 and 1097. However, you should unlock BL first.
As the ROOT, chainfire's CF-Auto-ROOT image still works or you can flash TWRP recovery to your device via fastboot, and flash the root binaries from within TWRP.
I downloaded but how install? Sorry i'm noob , i have unlock bl

Does the Moto Voice works in other languages? Also the system is all in Chinese or we can change it to English or in my case Spanish.? Thanks.

Nop, the moto voice is not working with any language besides chinese, what I did was to uninstall via Titanium the moto voice, reboot and install the normal apk and everything is great now

The hardware architecture is almost the same except communication modules and many 1095 users in China have been testing it since the IMG was released.
As the 1093's firmware, we can just flash the kernel and system partitions. The android system should work.

Same is happening to me, I dont know if is my computer or something, but one question, when you are trying to flash the new version are you flashing all the files or only the system.img? because In my case the (partial) solution was to flash motoboot.img, wich is the bootloader version, and then all the other files... I said partial because I am in one ROM I dont want. Maybe later at home will check with other PC, this is 8.1 and the one at home is 7.

OK, I've found the problem. We can never flash back to the official 5.0 again because Motorola update the bootloader in the chinese version. It is impossible to downgrade the bootloader version. It happened the same thing when I used Milestone 2.

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.

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

This is the 4.4.4 Retail US (Last Build released)
https://mega.co.nz/#!ZIxQGJSJ!dnHim2zF3vDIenrvw24NeTDAeneA8m5BEidoD6hz4_k
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?
Your download links are not working for me. Part of the links are replaced with "...".

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
Do I need an unlocked BL, root or custom recovery to flash this, or can i flash this on stock firmware 5.1, with locked bootloader

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 !
Can someone confirm these steps will work..

2. Lock the Bootloader Critical Partitions

Please advise...
Thanks,

I'm in the same boat, waiting for confirmation before installing September update.
I need root, and if we can't root the new September release, then I rather stay in the current version.
1. install factory images
2. update
3. flash arter and root
if you notice any bootloop i recommend u use gsi because i had once bootloop for no reason on stock but gsi is just fine

Sorry but I have seen in another thread that to get root on latest September update, we had to flash the modded boot provided. So if we root after arter, we will loose arter?
Sorry if it's a noob question but rooting last update isn't clear to me.

Off topic: you said you wanted to have gestures, there's even better than Q gestures, with the app fluid navigation gestures you can set gestures to whatever you want. For example you could get close to Oxygen OS gestures which are great.

so no flawless alternative rom here?
Resurection get some issue with bluetooth audio(car audio HFP), and some trouble with fingerprint (works some times)

i don't know, leave original one?
now i've rolled back the MR1, but get persistent error upgrading MR1 (all restored to original one, boot and system )

Nope, no solid alternative. Unfortunately, development for the RP2 (and most Android phones these days) has been almost non-existent. Our options are either stay stock, or use one of the GSI's that all have issues of various kinds with our phone.
Hey everyone,
Apologies on the redundancy - but for someone who just scored this phone from Razer for 299 and took the MR2 update the minute it got on wifi, would these steps work to just get root/magisk going?
Enable OEM unlock
reboot to the bootloader
use fastboot command to unlock bootloader
flash mr2 rooted image via fastboot
flash arter97 and twrp via fastboot
reboot
profit?
I'm just looking to get root/magisk, no ROMS or anything.
Thanks all
