Hello guys!
This is the OTA file containing some security fixes for that Stagefright bullcrap and some stability fixes too.
You need to be on Android 5.1 GPE Firmware, compilation number LMY47M.M001.
Put the *.ZIP on the internal storage, then go to Settings > About Phone > System Updates and this will be applied. (This is NOT 5.1.1, it's just 5.1. No bigger System updates seem to be planned for Moto G GPE, since this device is 18 months old now).
NOTE: This wont flash in any other ROM or Firmware. Also, this wont flash on TWRP, CWM or any other custom recovery. You need to have stock AOSP recovery from GPE firmware.

CHEERS!!!
LINK ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I'd like to include this patch in my GPE ROMs. It would be helpful if someone could do a fresh install of the GPE Firmware, apply this OTA Update and then make a TWRP Backup or System Dump via ADB:
adb shell
su
busybox tar czvf /sdcard/systemdump.tgz /system
exit
exit
adb pull /sdcard/systemdump.tgz
Note: No personal data will be included.

Thanks ! I had a notification for this update but could not install it because of non-stock recovery.... I will try to flash it manually.
EDIT : Trying to flash it with TWRP and have this message : "Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard/update.zip'
EDIT 1 : Also this message : "Package expects build fingerprint of motorola/falcon_gpe/falcon_umts:5.1/LMY47M.M001/6:user/release-keys or motorola/falcon_gpe/falcon_umts:5.1/LMY47M.M003/8:user/release-keys;
this device has motorola/falcon_retuglb/falcon_umts:4.3/14.10.0Q3.X-84-16/6:user/release-keys" ...
This is weird because i'm on 5.1 GPE and have compilation number LMY47M.M001 in "About the phone"...
What can I do ?

You need to have:
1. Untouched System partition (that means NO ROOT, nor ROOTED AND THEN UNROOTED System partion)
2. Stock AOSP recovery fron GPE Firmware...
So I'd reccomend you to reflash the entire GPE firmware, then apply this patch! :fingers-crossed:

Ok, thanks for your reply. And what is the easiest way to reflash the gpe firmware ? I followed this tutorial ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/guide-flash-android-5-1-lollipop-gpe-t3071960 ) six months ago to convert my non-GPE XT1032 with android 5.0.2 to the GPE variant with android 5.1. Sorry for my questions, I'm a total noob.

you should have the GPE firmware zip, then unzip the file, put the contents in the folder which contains fastboot files, then uncompress the zip file in the attachments below, put the bat file in the same folder as the firmware files,
Then Run the bat file, voila!! you'll be on clean GPE 5.1.
Then setup the moto G and apply the stage fright update when notified.
Then flash the stock motorola radio/modem files to get back signal
then flash twrp to get root.
@lost101 i made the twrp backup, it is 1.34 GB. Clean firmware with just the update installed and not flashed asian modem files.
uploading the zip file which is 725 MB in size.

Just the initial version/modem check on updater-script. You can compare both zips if you want (original OTA and modified OTA).
And of course it works with a custom recovery. Check the two proofs, please. Was installed and tested using TWRP... :/

Don't know.
Was tested with a clean 5.1 installation (using GPE 5.1 ROM (Untouched) (484mb) from http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/development/rom-stock-motorola-lollipop-rom-t3017510 ) so, no root.
You can always unroot from inside SuperSU settings, then update with the modified OTA and afterwards install SuperSU again before restart from TWRP.

Since I was using custom recovery and root I have to flash clean GPE 5.1 firmware and set it up from ground just to install this update.
You just saved few hours for me. :good:

Okay buddy but there is no flash file available for to flash lollipop on A6000. I suggest you to flash the kitkat and then perform all the minor updates then the major lollipop and then you might be able to install the next update of 138mb.
And remember when you do a major update the zip file gets downloaded to the lenovoota folder so do take a backup of that file beacause after installing the update the flash file gets auto deleted.

I'm slightly worried with Lenovo...last time I tried to upgrade rom from rooted stock Kitkat to stock lollypop, my phone got bricked.
I've never faced such silly issues with my earlier phones i.e. Samsung Galaxy 3 , Galaxy Nexus, Xolo etc.
I need a step by step process so that I can successfully go back to to stock and then take the phone to service center as there is some issue with Vibration

You post at the end of the year. People got their holliday
Ok, I'll try to help you.
Because you're using XOPLAX (LP), custom recovery (TWRP), and Lenovo A6000 Plus. Right?
I suggest you to flash stock LP.
The Steps:
Download stock LP ROM from HERE. (Latest S030). Save it to PC first.
Open your downloaded file (A6000-s_S030_151030_WCAF.zip) using extractor app, eg WinRAR, WinZIP, etc.
Extract file System.zip (The biggest file in A6000-s_S030_151030_WCAF.zip).
Open System.zip using extractor app.
Go To META-INF\com\google\android folder.
Replace update-script file with new update-script file (Link Below, Extract first). Save your System.zip
(Optional) Double check the update-script file. Make sure it has been replaced.
Save it (System.zip) to your external card.
Enter to custom recovery (TWRP).
Flash System.zip
FINISH
I hope this help your problem.

7.In recovery click on adb update(or differently)
===================================================
A few questions to help me clear my confusion ?
4.After flashing it will load you into the Rom = .184 stock rom from raw .184 ?
6.After that, our Full Rom, rename to update and sideload = .184 stock rom
Any particular reason why we would need to sideload stock .184 rom -- when we are in .184 stock before putting FOTA 6.0 to internal ?
is it patched the 2nd .184 ?
@Russiamen did you make modifications in the 'full rom' zip file, or is it the same zip file that we can download from Asus site?
And I have the same doubts that @timbernot 's ones.
There is an newer MM build (V4.21.40.78_20160624_7972). Could I flash it instead the provided FOTA?
do you have a download link for 78?
after this steps the rom will rooted or have to root it?
Thank you for your guide

i found this

For Z008-https://yadi.sk/d/Y51bbCIZsVaMf this link not working plz fix this link there showing "nothing found"
The Raw link for Z00A says "nothing found," and the FOTA for the Z00A says it needs a decryption key.
So this guide is to update your bootloader to the marshmallow firmware. So you can install Marshmallow based ROMS?
The reason I'm asking is because i've Unlocked my bootloader and installed the latest version of TWRP 3.02.0 Z00A and I was on android 5.0 on stock ZenUI.

I will recommend you to first upgrade your Android version to lollipop with latest firmware version ww-3.24.40.87 .
After upgrading, root your device and after that unlock your bootloader.
For rooting method, search in Asus zenfone 5 forum.
And for unlocking bootloader you can visit this link below-
https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-5/general/guide-how-to-unlock-bootloader-safely-t3562640
After unlocking bootloader you need to flash the TWRP Recovery. You can unlock bootloader and install twrp together in just one click. For that just visit the above link provided.
Now I'm assuming that you have rooted your phone and also your bootloader is unlocked and latest twrp is installed. So now head over to "Android development" forum of zenfone 5 and search for Resurrection Remix 5.8.2 by tank0412. This ROM is stable and also the developer is providing weekly updates.
I hope that this will help you out.

Yes. T00F and T00J both are same.
Just download it from official Asus website.
Just remember your SKU which is ww, tw, or cn.
To check your SKU, go to settings - about phone - and there check which firmware you have officially.
If you have WW firmware then you have to download ww firmware from the Asus website.
Eg. WW > WW
TW > TW
CN > CN

If your phone is rooted and you have successfully unlocked the bootloader with TWRP installed then now you are ready to install the custom nougat ROM. No need to upgrade your android version with stock firmware. Just proceed forward and follow what I'm saying -
Click here to download Ressurection Remix v5.8.2 nougat ROM
Visit the above link and download the RR ROM.
After downloading the RR ROM, now you have to download the GApps Pico 7.1 x86
Click here to download GApps
Put the downloaded ROM zip file and GApps zip file in your external memory card.
Now steps for flashing the ROM -
1. Reboot to recovery.
2. Go to Wipe section - Advanced Wipe, and then select the cache, dalvik cache, system, data, internal.
After selecting the above, now swipe to wipe.
3. After wiping, go back to wipe section again and tap on "Format Data", and type "yes" and press ok.
4. After formatting completed, go back to main screen and then go to Install section, and locate the ROM zip file. Select it and swipe to flash.
5. Now your ROM is flashed, so go back again and select the GApps zip file and swipe to flash.
6. Now flash the SU Addon (If you want the root access) (OPTIONAL) If you don't want then you can skip this step.
7. Now your ROM and GApps both are flashed, so now go back to main screen again and then go to reboot section,then select "REBOOT SYSTEM"
That's It. You have successfully flashed the new nougat ROM.
First boot will take approx. 5 - 10 mins.

It's mine pleasure.
If you get any problem then you can ask me anytime.
I would like to share my experience while install RR on Zenfone 5.
I wiped as per the instructions.
When install RR file, I got following error:
E: Failed to sysMapFile .................
Error flashing zip.
Another information is that recovery is Pinaslang version 2.8.6.0.
I think recovery based on TWRP.
I need quick help to overcome the trouble situation.

You cannot flash nougat ROMs with twrp 2.8.6 ,.... As you will end up with several errors so better switch to latest twrp I.e twrp 3.0 xx versions by xanwar . after that you can follow juyels method of flashing the ROM .
Download the twrp version from below link .
1:If you downloading zip file then flash through your old recovery and reboot to recovery .
2: if you downloaded .IMG file then flash through fastboot using the below code
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <filename>.img
Link for latest twrp : here
Dear Friends,
Finally, I could successfully installed RR.
Your suggestions are very timely and helpful.
After installation of TWRP 3, RR installed without any problem.
Thank you again, brothers.
