[UPDATE][Index][Guide][XT10XX] Update to Lollipop

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)

Will this restore the Indian Version to stock as well?
If so can I use the all earliest firmware that you have provided or should I download one specific to my region?

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

My fone came with KXB21.85-23 installed. Noticed big battery drain. Should switch to ART instead of Dalvik?

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.

Well anyway I just saved all of your packages just in case I'll ever need to restore my UK XT1068 back to stock.
I still have bootloader locked and everything as it came out of the box waiting for 5.0 OTA (of course I'll try to get the link and post it on XDA )

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

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

No, you can flash moto 5.1 directly whet it will 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?

Nope, this is only easiest way how to upgrade to 5.1 and contains the whole 5.1 firmware not only the updates.

Hello,
My Moto is XT1032 From Tesco GB retail. Can I use this guide to take 5.1 ? Thanks

Same question. There is no word about bootloader. Does it have to be unlocked?

Difference between stock Motorola rom and GPE In battery life and performance?

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.

Sorry, i don't know. You can try it, but maybe something wrong with partitions after 5.0.2.

Just ignore and reboot. If everything works fine don't care about it.

Downgrading from Pie(pixel exp) to Stock.

Hello Everyone!
I am a total noob. I have rooted many phone but never once reversed the process. Plus with stock moto being 32bit and customs being 64 it is even more complicated for me. And plus all this post about lost IMIE numbers and lost GPT makes me scared.
If i may, can I get step by step guide to relock my bootloader and get OTAs.
I have read most of the tutorials here but couldnt get the confidence to move forward(they all sound a little different)
I have moto G5 plus XT1686 indian version 4Gb/32GB currently running PE 9.0 (GTRCraft). I dont remember which version I had when I unlocked the bootloader. I do have a backup of my persist/efs.
I did see one tutorial but it is for 8.1.0 to stock and IDK if that works for me.
Thanks in advance.

Just wipe everything from twrp and then use LMSA OR manually flash the stock ROM and then go for bootloader lock procedure. Then you are done. And you won't lose any IMEI or Persist, so you will be safe.

No, download a fastboot flashable ROM, with a TWRP flashable you won't be able to apply OTAs:
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/potter/official/RETAIL/
Use OPSS28.85-17-4 if you're in the US or OPSS28.85-13-3 for the rest of the world.
Follow the available tutorials for flashing that firmware and after that for relocking the BL (almost the same commands). Make sure you have Minimal ADB & Fastboot
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=746010030569952951
and Motorola drivers
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0WGdtNWubBJYnlDcWRBZXltanc/view
installed on your PC.
For the fastboot commands you can use this flashall.bat:

ATTENTION:
You will need the appropriate version of the firmware according to your device version
You need the same or later version of firmware that you have when you unlock your BL
Example: If when you unlock your bl you was on NPNS25.137-33-11 you need the same (or later) complete firmware because you can't downgrade.
This is a part of the bootloader locking tutorial here on XDA. Does this make a difference?

You have to use the firmware you were on before you changed to a custom ROM or a newer one.
Never use an older one, downgrading can brick your device.

The "slot not found" error is normal, it's related to A/B devices with more than one recovery slot like Pixel phones. The commands should work nevertheless. Ignore the message.

I reloaded my G5 Plus with POTTER_RETAIL_7.0_NPNS25.137-93-4_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip sucessfuly. However, I was not able to relock the bootloader :
C:\Moto potter>fastboot oem lock
...
(bootloader) Still require signed boot.img
It got OTA'ed to Oreo 8.1 latter on, but still bootloader unlocked.
I just went through the flashing process to POTTER_RETAIL_8.1.0_OPSS28.85-17-4, same damned thing.
Everything works fine, excpet for Netflix that can't be installed no more and my bank software who keeps complaining.
I just dunno what to do to relock, any advice ?

Hello, Thank you for your reply.
I understand I cannot use an older firmware. I remember I unlocked my BL when I was in 7.0 itself, but when I installed the Arrow 9.0, I flashed the 8.1 firmware zip to get the NFC and Fingerprint working. So now my ro.build fingerprint doesnt tell me which firmware build i am on it just says "8.1"
I am confused what to do. Should I download the latest 8.1 moto rom and flash it? I tried the TWRP flashable rom but the phone just goes upto Hello Moto bootscreen and then bootloops.
I erased everything and flashed PE 9.0 again.

That's what I would do. If you flash the latest firmware it can't be older as the one you're originally coming from.

Flash all the system files while locking. (0-8). Older locking guides have only 0-4. Newer firmware has 9 system files.
