The official only have 408 MB, I Downloaded it in another forum, and works like a charm q.q
PS: I know the guy who posted and captured this OTA and the OP aren't him, stole people's work and claim to yourself is hateful, you should give the credits for him...

The first UK ota was 408.98mb - but as everything is still in testing people really shouldn't be posting this stuff

Yea, i'll stick with a custom ROM instead of this oficial update (that [email protected]!)
They are so late that i'm sure SaberMod, BlissPop, etc are better optimized.

Has anyone confirmed this to work on the XT1039? I assume it wouldn't be possible due to different LTE bands?
EDIT: Comparing the bands, it seems like there's little to no difference between the XT1040 and the XT1039, I assume like the Falcon, we wouldn't be able to restore to an older firmware via fastboot if we flashed this

Congrats motorola, it's been just 6 damn months.

Okay, so I took the risk and tried flashing the XT1040 firmware on my XT1039, I wouldn't do it unless you use your peregrine as a wifi only device

Yea, motorola took so long to bring it that i'm kind of glad as it made me try custom roms and the work all the teams make on the ROMs is amazing.
Now i'll always support them instead of motorola

anyone update to 5.1?

Hello , i make all steps , but when i flash ota 5.1 with custom recovery i get error , and installation aborted
help please

Hello,
I took a captured OTA of a 5.1 Lollipop ROM and when I launch the update process, I also get an error, it says that the fingerprint is not the version expected. But I have the KXB21.14-L1.56 as mentioned in the error message.
But I have an other question, why flash the 4.4.3 instead of directly the 4.4.4 version of the ROM ?
Thank you.

Hello again,
Yesterday I could update my XT1039 to Lollipop 5.1 via OTA on a fresh install of a 4.4.4 KitKat version. I just had to go in Google Play and to update the Motorola update service.
After the update, I could see that the build number of the update was LPB23.13-17 and the System Version is 23.21.17, different from the 21.11.56 of the captured OTA given here, which gave me the error.
I hope this helps.
Cheers!

Ok

[REQ] [ROM] [DEV] Custom ROMs based on AOSP needed for Galaxy A5(SM-A500G). Help!

Can any developer help the Indian A5 variant users get a AOSP custom rom. As @mygalaxya discontinued his work for that variant. I am not a developer but would love to work on porting the rom if someone guides me on the procedure.

Don't worry, I can adapt BlissPop to any variant since now I have completz device tree for it. Send me a PM if you're really interested.
I'm also working on another build, it's a simple clean and fresh build, since all bugs are fixed we may adapt it to all variants.

Can u please give us a link of the AOSP ROM thread for SM-A500G,

SM-A500H Dual SIM variant.
And what about the dual sim variant Mr. @mygalaxya because these devices are not easy to configure to make the two sims working properly, I don't know what's the problem or where it lies, but for example check this: Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 cyanogenmod by mukulsoni with cyanogenmod 12.1 from 22nd November 2014 until today.
yet, dual sim functionalities -calling and internet- are not working as they should be.
I don't want to be a disappointment or frustration but, we should give our SM-A500H dual Sim a chance so, I wish good luck for all of you.
I'm eager to help with my phone.
Thanks.

That's right. We really need Dev's help in this area. There are many custom roms for a500f/a500fu but none for any other variant.

Hi I just received an OTA update for my a500g(India) of around 830 MB. I think this should be the lollipop update.

Yup it is the lollipop update of 830 MB.
And just install wanam Xposed and make your device status official and it will let you download the OTA. I also have rooted a5.
Edit: After downloading OTA you can find the downloaded update in root/data/fota.

It seems like there is actually no lollipop release for a500g(India). But than why I got that update? Can it be an experimental build?
I have filed a complaint to Samsung about this a week ago. Do you think that is the reason why I got that update? Also the Russian lollipop update for a500fu was of 920 MB while mine was of only 830 MB.
Anyway I think I will wait for Indian lollipop release. Damn my 830 MB is wasted.
Edit: Just checked on gsmarena. A user there has reported that he has also got lollipop update on his a500g India if 830 MB. So I have got the right update.

I appreciate everybody's help. However I can't tell if the the correct firmware listed is for US XT1644 FIRMWARE. I see I have the correct build. I have as of yet not unlocked my device. However I want to load my own backup all my images using dd command except data. Upload and post links for the United States build, as I just don't see nothing. Any help to the stock build United States build XT1644 would be great? Thanks
Also when unlocking the my device is there any issues I will run into, off the top of your heads?

9 is the latest firmware for the US model. im not sure what the very bottom one "harpia" is for?

I have bought mine unlocked and it is "retus". It has the MPJ 24.139-48 fw. Radio is M8952_70009.08.03.45R ATHENE_RETUSA_CUST.
If I check the update it says it's up-to-date.

Harpia is the codename for the Moto G4 Play. Athene is the G4/G4+.

Thanks everybody for helping out. Please continue to write more info about the US XT1644 as there is not alot in on this model.

yup but .9 is the latest. it has fixes for battery and the phone. i flashed it via fastboot on my XT6144 and it works great.

Well, the -49 (not 9) it's not to be found on Moto US website or OTA, it just appeared here like magic and the change log (supposedly) here. So I am not sure about it's provenience and that the fixes are not a placebo.
Anyway, I understand the "itch" to install it. Because I am so tempted myself
LE: Well, I did it. Flashed the MJP24.139-49 on my XT1644, I am restoring the apps now from backup.

Are these TWRP flashable or fastboot?

Yes, fastboot is avail after you unlock the bootloader on Motorola site (loosing the warranty).
I have booted into TWRP to root (SU systemless method), but didn't actually flash it (because I don't plan to switch to CM at this point).

I'm already on CM but there's the bug preventing me from receiving calls unless I turn off LTE. I'd prefer to not lose root and don't have access to a PC, so if I can wipe and flash this in TWRP, that would be perfect.

No, you can't, you need the standard recovery to get back to stock. Then you can root as I said.
As for CM13, I had used it (beta and after that nightlies) on one of my previous devices (Asus, based on Snapdragon 615, 64 bit, 3GB RAM)... but it was too unstable to use as a daily phone. Always something to be "fixed" and very often something else was breaking. Disappointed...

Security Patch Level
Can someone who has flashed the -49 build confirm what the security patch level is? Just wondering if it's the same update India and Europe received OTA.

New stock firmware available (24.221.8)

Hi all.
I just noticed there's new firmware. Has anyone updated yet? In using an XT1572.
I'm rooted etc... So I can't quite simply update.
Should I be flashing the last stock firmware i have and then update? The last fastboot I have is the February patch, but my phone is on the May patch. Whatever firmware i flashed gives me another language in the update notification screen...lol.
Any guidance would be appreciated. Otherwise, I'll just do my thing blindly.

After your post, I rechecked the update service on my phone (xt1572 also). I got also new update here, but right now I cant do update (rooted + xposed). WIll try later, but I suppose that there is just new security patch. Strange that I got another version..
EDIT:
fount out Motowebpage
it look like the only improvements are - September security patch there.

Is the update for India dual sim xt1572?

I've installed the update today. The download size was about 40 MB, so seems to be a small patch indeed. I can confirm that it contains the september security patch, haven't noticed anything else yet.
I do think it's a shame that Moto is lacking so much in the update department lately. This is a security patch of two months ago... Also I would have expected them to have news on Nougat by now, at least for their Moto Z family...

6.0.1 ? at the time of 7.0?

it's not 6.0.1 update it's only security patch, we already had 6.0.1 in eu for a while

Has someone already tried the update with Flashfire? Im Rooted, on Frankenclark and Xposed. Does anyone know if we can get a flashable zip to flash in TWRP? To much work to go back to Stock, update and install everything again. Is the patch it worth?
Sent from my XT1572 using XDA-Developers mobile app

can someone upload full firmware for retasia? thx

We have to wait for Moto to release/leak the firmware image, the OTA zip won't do any good... This usually takes 2-4 weeks, sometimes more, to get the factory image. Be patient.
BTW, it is nothing special, all it does is patch to the Sept 1, 2016, security update, including Dirty Cow (which if you have been following the security threads is pretty much worthless on Lollipop and newer devices anyway)

someone else had posted something similar also for the T280 in the development thread (one of those either by jedid or ashyx). It turned out be a 5.0.1 (for some reason was incorrectly listed as 6.0.1) Not sure if this is the real thing or the same incorrect listing

I got a bug fix and security patch (Jan '17) update a few days ago, still lollipop though. I doubt we'll get marshmallow, we would've got it by now if they were going to give it to us, I don't mind too much because it pretty much caters for my needs as it is. Don't pin your hopes on a custom ROM either, this doesn't seem like much of a popular device, at least the model running a spreadtrum processor anyway.
