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

What should I do in that case? Feel free to answer me in spanish for PM.
Is this any different from the February Canada release?

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

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!
Can someone please post here stock recovery.img for OPT im now on TWRP but i want to install H2OS OTA normally.
Thank you so much
You may have chosen to keep the twrp recovery on your device from beeing overwritten by the stock recovery. This is done in twrp by renameing the "/bin/recovery.sh" (afaik).
Before installation OTA update checks for all checksums of files it will patch. So you will not only need the stock recover but at least to replace the recovery.sh with the original one.
Much easier way is to flash 2.0.2 full (not the OTA!), flash 2.1 OTA, flash SU and reboot in one session from twrp . I have done this and it worked without a problem.
Just make sure your battery is fully charged before
I'm getting an updated binary error. Started getting it in TWRP after flashing a custom kernel. Could you post your stock recovery? Or the stock kernel? (preferably the latter I suppose)
I've tried digging into the full 2.0.1 and 2.1 ROMs to find them, but I can't track them down...
Yes,i need the stock recovery
Well I need stock recovery because of hydrogen OS hope someone have it..
All you need is recovery paparapapa ahahahah
I managed somehow to have back stock recovery
When i flashed TWRP and then Gapps for Hydrogen OS it asked me to stop stock recovery to flash or something so i press dont stop, and voila im back on stock recovery

Hi all,
needing help upgrading to MM.
I'm stuck on 1.17.40.1106 since I unlock the bootloader I can't receive further updates.
I've read that to be able to upgrade to MM you need to have .1531 firmware but since I'm stuck, can I sideload MM 21.40.1220 from Lolli 1.17.40.1106?
I have TWRP installed but not rooted.
First if you want sideload u must in "STOCK recovery"
And Seccond if you want update to MM u must have final firmware of LL. Go to asus.com check ur firmware version, If you are using last LL u just download MM firmware copy to sdcard and go to recovery-->apply update from sd card-->choose firmware MM and wait it update
.....
Dont flash firmware of asus.com if u use custom recovery it will brick your phone....
Thanks Val.
I'm having status 7 error both in stock recovery and twrp, another reason why Im stuck.
What are my options?
anyone?

you have twrp but no root? how does that work?
in any case, the Terms of Service of the Asus unlock tool says you will not be able to get OTA update after using. We have confirmed that the unlock tool communicates with Asus when you use it - we highly suspect it sends your phone information to Asus to prevent official OTA.
I would root phone and install ROM.
check this out for issue of installing official MM update with TWRP:

Thanks Eric.
I was reading the links you gave and have this questions:
1. Is it true that if I use custom recovery (TWRP) to sideload official firmware my phone will be bricked?
2. If I do "fastboot erase system" and flash full official firmware such as 1.17.1531, will it erase the custom recovery and go back to stock?
This way I can manually upgrade to MM once in stock recovery.

1)i think twrp will not flash the official firmware, like if you downloaded it from Asus or got the ota .zip.
2) i do not know that command but it scares me to look at it.
in the thread i linked to, was answer to y question about flashing the official MM stock image.
Hello,
My device is an Asus Zenfone 3 ZE552KL with TWRP 3.1.0.
I need the original stock recovery for ASUS_Z012D-WW-14.2020.1703.28 (Android N).
Is it possible to build it from the firmware?
Otherwise, where can I find it?
Thank you in advance for your help.
nobody can help me
Are you running on 1703.28 currently?
Do a TWRP backup and then dirty flash the stock image on top, it shouldn't change any data or settings but will replace recovery (happened to me when I updated from 1701).
I'm curious, why do you want to go back to stock recovery? I'll never go back, lol
Edit: if anyone with the stock 1703.28 firmware and root can run an adb shell and make a backup of it using " dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p59 of=/sdcard/recovery.bin" and upload it.
I am currently rooted and to install the latest firmware stock, I have to do it from stock recovery because it does not work from TWRP.
After that, I will reinstall TRWP
The stock recovery can be downloaded from asus site :
https://www.asus.com/fr/Phone/ZenFone-3-ZE552KL/HelpDesk_Download/
Or direct download link : (1.8 Gb)
http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZE552KL/UL-ASUS_Z012D-WW-14.2020.1703.28-user.zip
@olivierzx
This is the full firmware, but stock recovery is not available.
Unless you know a way to build it from the firmware.

You do not need stock recovery to install the stock rom.
Just edit the update script, see this
thread, part 1, step 2-4
I newbed up my phone (soft bricked) and am trying to flash back to stock, but didn't think to save the stock recovery image before I flashed TWRP. Does anyone happen to have it for the ZE553KL? Or perhaps the stock firmware can be flashed through TWRP? I tried to flash via adb sideload, and it appeared to work, but that could be the totally wrong way.
Thanks!
Check the ROM somewhere here "convert CN to WW". There's a stock image in there with instructions how to sideload through ADB.
Thanks @magicmanfk!
The recovery.img is indeed in the ROM file attached to that thread. I extracted it and ran
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
and it brought back the stock recovery. Then I was able to flash one of the older firmware files via
Code:
adb sideload UL-Z01H-WW-11.41.87.2-user-1.zip
and I'm back to stock. Now going to try to upgrade to N.

Did you use that image for a US phone or other?
The image you used looks like the firmware on the Asus site dated 6/6/2017 so I guess the firmware there are full images and not patches like someone suggested???
I'm asking because I feel like I may want to go back to US version stock at some point and don't have a backup so if the above is the case then I probably don't need to ask someone for a backup...
Did you have any luck upgrading to N? When I try using the phone's normal procedure I get an error saying I can't upgrade to N from a firmware less current than 11.41.87.2 even though that's the one I'm running. After flaking back to stock recovery I was able to update to that one normally... I wonder if there was something subtle that went wrong.
