System update - Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers

I'm on NPN25. 137-33. Flashed back to my stock backup for various reasons, am now getting a notification for whatever update is available.....a couple of things. How do I disable the update? And is there a stock rom of the latest build available for the US variant that's TWRP flashable? I don't see it. I was on the stock debloated rom which seemed fine but I couldn't get it to root with superuser or magisk.

Yes u need to flash through twrp... And I think its rootable

.67 is for the Indian G5+, but works on the US variant (RETUS). .35-5 is the most current firmware and .43 is for Verizon users (fixes call/VoLTE issues) of RETUS but is a March security patch instead of May like .35-5. The .67 has a different kernel source and March security patch. I'd go with .35-5. It's available here. But none of these are flashable through TWRP. You can fastboot though...

You lose recovery if you flash through fast boot though right? And so the one posted above you through retus isn't compatible with twrp?

I believe the one posted above linked via gdrive is flashable through TWRP and was created by @GtrCraft and is based off RETIN or RETUE. You loose TWRP, but fastboot it right back.
I was just trying to help answer your original question about the most up to date RETUS firmware. Moto has made it difficult to track with all the variants.

Thanks for all. What is the fasboot command to flash a zip?

My apologies if this isn't the right place to ask, but the discussion seems to be right in line with my issue. I'm running -35 (RETUS), rooted (SuperSU) and TWRP. I got the notification to update yesterday, and being partly distracted by screaming kids, I accepted.
It, of course, failed. But more importantly, now any power/boot cycle dumps me into TWRP every time. The only way back to the OS is to boot to bootloader and click "start". I honestly could care less about the security update (as I'm sure a TWRP friendly version is on the horizon). But having to go through the bootloader to simply power up/reboot the phone is a royal PITA.
Is there a quick fix to the hook that seems to redirect to the recovery? As bad as that is, I'd live with it if it means I don't have to wipe and start from scratch.

I'd start from scratch and make a backup of your current now, flash stock .35-5 that I linked above with RSDlite (update if on Verizon - your choice), fastboot TWRP again and restore. I accidentally did it with .35 and this was the process I did to get out of bootloop recovery hell. Hope that helps...
I posted the .43 update if you don't get the update and required it for Verizon.

[XT1058] Android 5.1 link

Hello,
I've found a link to the supposedly OTA, but it didn't work with the same method for the 5.0.2, I mean copying to the memory of the phone and trying to update from the settings. I don't know if it is really the 5.1 OTA but feel free to give it a try. I've found it on a comment in a brasilian site: http://www.androidpit.com.br/moto-x-android-update. If any of you guys know how to update please let me know.

Goto the Confirmed Android 5.1 thread, around page 16, there is a mega link of a nadroid backup of 5.1 Brazil for twrp. Download it, extract it to the TWRP/backup folder, boot to recovery, backup your present ROM. Then restore the downloaded nandroid, wipe data, cache, and davlik cache only, reboot into system, profit. This way gpt and boot partitions remained in touched, and no need to revert to Brazilian KitKat, then to 5.0.2, then to 5.1 painful process.

I'm in united States using cricket wireless.
You do not need to be rooted for this. You must have unlocked boot loader though because you need twrp
Oh I'm rooted matter of fact I'm on the N5X based ROM and its really Good..and I will extract and put inside the backup folder

Tested on my XT1058, worked like a charm! No need to mess with bootloader, fastboot nor any other tool... Download, add to memory, install, be happy!
Just as other OTA zips...
Ah, remember to install 5.0.2 OTA before this, link can be found on other threads...

Please don't! Many people bricked the device when trying to roll back from 5.X... If you install the soak test, it is better to wait for the final OTA update...
How to update
Yesterday I found out why in some cases when you place the file in the internal memory it doesn't work, you need to follow the updates sequence to make it work.
So from 4.4.4 you update to 5.0.2 (AKA .31):
Blur_Version.221.41.31.ghost_row.Brasil.en.BR
Then you apply this small patch that still 5.0.2 (AKA .38):
Blur_Version.221.41.38.ghost_row.Brasil.en.BR
And finally you apply the update to 5.1 (AKA .2)
Blur_Version.222.21.2.ghost_row.Brasil.en.BR
Happy flashing.
Kind regards,
Johnny

Yes. All OTA's have been incremental so far, and have a pre-flash validation check to ensure your phone is on the correct level, and if your phone isn't, it wont flash.
It doesn't surprise me that this follows that pattern especially based on its size

What will happen with the official 5.1 release then? They never released an official 5.0.2, so how can they expect people to be upgrading from 5.0.2?

Thanks a lot for the kind warning. After posting this comment I went through many other posts, especially the one by KidJoe. Chances are quite real that one can hard-brick his device by downgrading then upgrading through OTA again.

For those were invited to the MFN Test or Soak, Moto has their IMEI, knows what is on their phone, and will push them the appropriate update to 5.1 final, hence this file's preflash check looking for a particular 5.02. Since we know of two different 5.02 versions (one for the Brazil xt1058 and one for the XT1053), there will be at least two different 5.1 versions that Moto will push to those on the MFN test/soak list.
For the those NOT invited, as in the past Moto will likely compile and push a 4.4.4 -> 5.1 OTA zip for each carrier/model which will have a preflash check looking for the 4.4.4 for the particular carrier/model.
For those that manually applied the 5.x leaks because they were NOT invited to the MFN test/soak, Moto will NOT have their IMEI to push a special version, they will be off stock 4.4.4, and so any 5.1 push from the carrier/moto will fail to install due to the preflash check. They'll either need to revert to 4.4.4 (where GPT.BIN/Motoboot.img have been the cause of many bricks in the past when downgrading, so its expected to continue to be risky going forward), or wait for a leak of the OTA zip they need, or wait for a leak of the 5.1 SBF for their carrier/model.
That is why some suggested if you're not part of the MFN invites, you should wait on installing the 5.x leaks.

[CANADIAN] Odin 5.1.1 Bootloader & TWRP Flashable Modem - SM-G925W8 BOI6 *UPDATED*

[CANADIAN] Odin 5.1.1 Bootloader & TWRP Flashable Modem - SM-G925W8 BOI6 *UPDATED*
Thanks to @risx for grabbing the OTA zip to get the stuff we needed.
Prerequisit: You must be on a 5.1.1 compatible TWRP as well as a 5.1.1 rom when flashing these packages or your going to get stuck in a binary miss match. While there is a fix for this with out the W8 5.1.1 odin packages, it takes a lot of musical flashing. So be sure to be on a compatible 5.1.1 rom, Kernel and TWRP first.
As always, you flash at YOUR OWN RISK. I will of course try to provide support if I am online, If you appreciate how much the pain in my butt was, and you didn't have to do this your self. Click Donate.
The Bootloader MUST be flashed via ODIN 3.10.X or higher. in the BL slot. Hence why its a tar. Sorry no flashables, Samsung locks the boot loader areas to everything but their own signed recovery, from their own signed update.zip
BOH8 BL
BOI1 BL
BOI6 BL *LATEST*
The modem is TWRP flashable
BOH8 Modem
BOI1 Modem
BOI6 Modem *LATEST*
You can get ODIN 3.10.6 HERE
Samsung USB Drivers HERE
Thank you so much bro, everything works like charm!!
Thanks @risx for the update.zip file. You made our day!!
ok - this is probably a stupid question, but where do i download the twrp 2.8.7.1 for the g925w8? I can't seem to find the file in my searches. Thanks!

No, you must be on a 5.1.1 compatible TWRP as well as a 5.1.1 rom to flash this or your going ot get stuck in a binary miss match. and there will be no fix for this untill the ODIN package is released by samsung, this usually follows days to weeks after an OTA.

this separate bootloader and modem are not for people who wish to stay stock. for you, you should wait for the ota. This is for people who are already on 5.1.1 roms who wish to have the proper bootloader and modem. There would be no purpose for you to install this if you wish to stay on rogers 5.0.2 and then get their ota when its released.
I have been having problems with the BOH8 modem and XtreStoLite 2.3
There is a delay in receiving txt & my incoming calls randomly sometimes go straight to voicemail.
I flashed back the OG2 modem and it seems to be fine now. Wondering if anyone else has this issue?

Tired of Samsung with all this sh!t. They are becoming worst with each device launch and their exynos processors. I hope SD820 comes back with S7 as we will have some hope for AOSP roms.

How to go about updating Nexus 6p angler-MMB29P(root/twrp) to MHC19I

My Nexus 6P is rooted and running Android Marshmallow (6.0.1) (supposed to be systemless but not sure anymore)
I have unlocked the bootloader and have twrp as my recovery.
I have exposed framework with some modules installed and working (notification bar clock now shows the seconds and stuff like that....)
So I recently got my Nexus 6p and the first thing I did was root and install twrp via adb and fast boot so I could use exposed framework. I would like to know what my options are in receiving ota updates? I have the Android security patch from January 1, 2016 and I just got an Android system update notification that includes a newer security patch from February and I'm not sure if I can get a specific ota that is flashable through twrp or if I'll need to back up my stuff and flash stock or if there's an easier way to do this because I'd prefer to not have to set up everything all over again.
If you need me to provide any further information about my device just tell me.
---
I'm currently on build MMB29P and I have checked the Google dev page on Factory Images for Nexus Devices
And apparently MHC19I is the newest.
use flashfire

I have all the OTA zips listen in my index. As previously mentioned you can use Flashfire to flash them without having to undo your modifications.
But with flashfire you will still lose all of your modifications like xposed apps? You have to redo it all? Anyone have a direct link to the new feb security update?

I've used flash fire back on my s4 so this is good but
Should I disable my exposed modules before I flash with flash fire as i can also reinstall exposed along with the ota? It's my First time using exposed because my s4 has a locked bootloader.

Downloaded modules should stay intact. However, I am not sure if the OTA update has library changes, that may affect Xposed installation. Anyhow, simply flashing the Xposed Installer zip will suffice.

Ok i just used flashfire to update with the image file. Made sure to follow the instructions and even got it to flash xposed for me after.
It all went smoothly. But upon reboot it looked like it was doing an android app update but it stopped and everything seems like it was before. The security update didnt work. Still says january.

Yes. You will need to pick MHC19I factory image, and extract the system.img from it. Flash it, and also the vendor.img too.
Every thing worked out I had downloaded the most recent build and exposed installer flashed through flash fire everything seems good so far.

Picking the current build is simply reflashing it. To update, you will need to flash the system.img from the latest factory image.

Lol. Look at the screenshot you posted...
On a more serious note, hopefully DrakenFX is able to whip up a flashable zip for us rooted folks.

Im talking about the size of the download. Usually these minor updates are 200 MB.
Btw, this doesn't even include April security patch.
Just received B25 OTA but when I ask it to install, phone reboots into TWRP and I can't install from TWRP. Later I get a notification that update failed. I tried FlashFire, it detects the B25 OTA but will not install gives message "Unencrypted ....".

To get the stock OTA to work , you need the stock recovery (TWRP won't work).
Not sure about Flashfire?

It is 7.1.1 and is the March 2017 security updates. It does add night light and is supposed to fix the DND issues. It also has a modem patch.

Currently I am on 7.1.1 latest update and I am unlocked and rooted. Should I flash the 7.1.1 again?

Everything you need to know is in this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/development/rom-guide-updates-to-stock-files-via-t3469484
Make a backup first, it (should) completely wipe your data.

DAC is still screwed up. Standard/Super sound reversed compared to pre Nougat.

Can you prove this?
Problem that I have found was with the Fingerprint sensor. Before I could unlock my phone easy. Now I have to stick my tongue out, while standing on my head, one leg horizontal, and he the other leg vertical. Wiping cache helps a little but not a lot. I removed fingerprints and re-added them. Helps a little.

I don't understand the question. If you're on B25, there is no need. If you're on B19 and want the B25 update, you'll either need to be stock or wait for a flash package before updating, since you've modified some partitions.
The OTA files only work directly on fully stock phones.

Try high end high ohm headphones, you will be surprised to see that they work correctly.

Sorry if I weren't clear, currently I have Nougat 7.1.1 and my version is 0B19 and I want to install the 0B25 that was pushed OTA yesterday. I thought I was running B19 stock. I am Unlocked, TWRP and Rooted. If there is something that has been modified in my system then as you stated, I guess I have to wait for a B25 ZIP to flash.
Thank you for your help.

Not true... I installed the OTA to my setup using TWRP just needed to delete a few lines from the updater-script to make it possible

Finally got the real 7.1.1. For the z play droid!

As of 3:45 a.m. this morning I couldn't believe what I was seeing thanks Verizon it's about time still messing around with it (7.1.1.) I'll let you know how it goes like it so far oh yeah I'm on the east coast S.C. THANKS AGAIN AND GOD BLESS EVERYONE!!!
Downloading right now.
Mike
I'm in the United States and I got 7.1.1 last night ?
got it today also
Yep, it's finally here, downloading.
Update 7.1.1 is here on RETEU
Just got the 7.1.1 OTA for the Moto Z Play on RETEU
Will keep you posted as soon as installed and tested
Just downloading 7.1.1. in Germany
I'm doing the 7.1.1 update in France
I'm here on April patch RETEU, but I'm rooted, with custom kernel and modified system.
What is the safe way to install the 7.1 OTA? I've already been notified about it.
Safe way is to flash everything from bootloader with a full package... OTA is to be avoided if you modified system and recovery.

Safest way is to flash my 7.1.1 stock rom, if you decide you don't like 7.1.1 you can safely move back or forth to any rom. Taking the OTA means you can't or should downgrade or you could end up hard bricked.

Yeah, I see. But the latest avaible full RETEU firmware is NPN25.137-24-1 and flashing this is not safe. Can I flash RETAIL april patch instead?
Got the update too but is your home button with Google animation? Mine turned into pixel home button 2 hours after the update

Didn't want to risk anything, so I flashed your ROM
Indeed, getting around the globe reached retus. Now is question, should I accept or not?
