[Q] [SOLVED] 220.27.1 OTA install problems

Hi everyone,
I received the OTA update notification a long time ago but didn't have time to take a deep look into it (baby on the way... now arrived !), but I'm trying to install a lollipop ota update on my moto g.
It's not my first android device, I had about 10 of them and messed around with them, so don't be affraid to use the vernacular directly, but I'm aware that I might be making a rookie mistake too
My phone is a 1st gen 16Gb Moto G. IT's running 4.4.4 (System version 210.12.40.falcon_umts.Retail.en.FR, I'm in France by the way). I did a few things to it :
- unlock bootloader
- install CWM
- root
- install xposed
- install cerberus and moved it to system apps
Before trying to install it I tried to reverse the steps back to stock :
- move cerberus back to user apps, and uninstall it just in case
- remove xposed
- unroot using the option in the SuperSU menu
- go back to kitkat stock revovery, using mototool v2.6 (so this might a 4.4.2 but I didn't find another one so far)
Then I clicked on the OTA notification, anouncing that 220.27.1... was ready to be installed, downloaded it ok, chose to install it.
Everytime I tried the phone rebooted, began the install and after a short while showed a error message and rebooted.
I tried to install it by putting the OTA zip file in /sdcard and install it with the stock recovery, but here's what I found out :
After downloading the OTA on the phone if I go to /cache/ (where the ota zip file is downloaded. To do that I need root access so I got to flash cwm and root it again, fyi) it shows another file, not corresponding to 220.27 but named : Blur_Version.210.12.40.falcon_umts.Retail.en.FR.zip .... which is weird because it's the version that's supposed to be installed already !
I tried something else, found the "Blur_Version.220.27.1.falcon_umts.Retail.en.FR.zip" file on a forum, put it on /sdcard/ and try to install it through recovery... same error.
Does anyone have an idea on how to install it succesfully without having to flash back a stock firmware ?
Thanks a lot to anyone giving a shot, you rock !

[Q] xt1032 not upgrading to lollipop

All I am sorry if this has been asked as I cannot find the same issue when I search
I was offered the lollipop upgrade via OTA today. I downloaded and rebooted as it asked. Then since I have my phone rooted with TWRP the TWRP screen came up and I tried and install.. that failed obviously, again rebooted into TWRP and then chose to boot to system, it looked like it was upgrading packages and then i looked a few minutes later and it showed my phone was not updated.
Now when I go to the options/about phone/software upatdate it says that I am up to date and I am at 4.4.4..
Can anyone help? I would really like to get lollipop on there without losing all my data.
TIA

Hi, have a look here, it worked perfectly for me and i didn't lose any data.

Android/Stock firmware 5.1.1 system update

Hi everyone!
I've just received and successfully installed a system update for Android 5.1.1 and it says exactly zero about itself. Even Android's version hasn't changed.
Does anyone have any idea what it fixes? I surmise it fixes two recent holes but 10MB sounds a little too much for that.

I also got but nothing happened
Sent from my Nexus 5

I got it, I'm updating manually since for some reason my phone never wants to update the regular way.

It addresses the Stagefright vulnerability

How can I apply this update manually?
It doesn't apply automatically - there are no errors, nothing. I've rebooted my phone three times already and it wants to install it again.

flash it through ADB
I use this thread as reference just to make sure I don't miss any step but there are a few others threads like this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/guide-update-rooted-device-to-5-1-lmy47d-t3050789

OTA install error
I got the OTA notification to download & install the Stagefright patch. Every time I try to install it, it says "error!" shortly after it starts to install and shows the android with a red exclamation point.
My nexus 5 is stock & unrooted.
Any idea what's causing this and how to force the install? If not, I can sideload OTA with ADB later tonight.
Thanks!

I think the build number should have changed to LMY48I.

adb fastboot

I've had my first freeze and first complete blackout since this small update

This should be the monthly update mentioned on main page

This update is worthless: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/0...efright_fix_wont_be_resolved_until_september/
I will skip it.

Unable to install Android System update (Sep 2015) of 16.1 mb on Nexus 5 LMY48I

URGENT HELP
On installing the update of 16.1 mb. The droid shows a error while installing after the reboot.
Nothing happens after that and the phone reboots
Right now it it running on 5.1.1

Same problem, LMY48B
I have the same problem, OTA update comes in a few times a day and never works, i simply get the message "Error". My update is 10.1 Mb. I am on build nr LMY48B and have Android version 5.1.1. When restarting using the power and volume button, the error message says "Empty". I tried Nexus Root Toolkit to update, no result.
Has anyone an idee to eather update or kill the updates all together?

Solution found !!Huraay!!
I just found a solution to this problem. You ll have to flash your nexus to stock (it is formatting not rooting)
Here are simple steps to it:
1. Enable Bootlegger
2. Turn on developer mode, enable USB debugging
3. Use a flash factory image (download it from any source)
Now you ll get 3 back to back OTA updates in settings, just install them and finally you ll get Marshmallow update of 403mb.
DONE.....
Cheers.
Contact if you still have a problem.

Thanks for sharing this. I tried to follow your instructions, using NEXUS Root Toolkit. At first i tried factory image 5.1.1, but this did not work , it just stopped. After that i tried to flash Hammerhead 6.0.0. Wich actually looked very promissing during the proces. After finishing reboot started, and it won't get out of reboot. I tried several times, up to 15 minutes. I also tried a factory reset, but it still keeps running the marsmellow startup grafic. Since i can't get into unlock mode, i do not have the opportunity to reflash the phone. Any ideas how to get out of reboot?

Hi,
We need to know more, what's actually failing. We could try and flash the update with TWRP, we'll get some output from there. Might be your radio or bootloader versions, for example.
And you using a toolkit, it doesn't help.
So, go learn some fastboot and some adb while you're at it, because you're going to need it. Guides to both are stickied everywhere around here.
Also, don't see the point on flashing a 5.1.1 factory image at this point, if the goal is to update to 6.0 (looking at the other user posting on this thread): just flash 6.0 factory image.

Current Build Number: Oxygen OS 10.3.3.GM57AA

Oneplus SEVEN OTA update pending as rooted
Update Pending: oneplus2oxygen_14_1511091726 system update ready to install
Current Build Number: Oxygen OS 10.3.3.GM57AA
This is unlocked and rooted with twrp magisk
However I tried updating to system update available few days back and messed up. My root is now gone.
Thankfully my phone booted and all seems well.
I have been reading numerous threads but so much scared and confused as to how to get this update without messing up.
Pls could someone explain step by step how to manually update this OTA WITHOUT wiping data pls. Also how to root again after this update.
For first time rooting I followed some YouTube video but not finding any video for above activity.
Kindly help as I have really tried my best but cannot find a way.

If you search all your answers are here in the forum but anyway,
First of all you should download the whole rom update the full package and put it to phone storage (you can download it with oxygen updater you can find it on google play store it is free.)
Disable all magisk modules and restart your phone
then go to system update and tap on the 3 dots up and right side of phone screen from there choose local upgrade
wait for it to complete and do not restart your phone
- Open Magisk Manager;
- Menu/modules/+ button/select the twrp installer.zip and flash it;
- Always in Magisk Manager, click on Install/Install/Direct Install;
- Again in Magisk Manager, click on Install/Install/Inactive Slot;
- Reboot.
