nice just got a notification on my phone that an update is available.
I wonder if a rooted and custom kernel (experience) would interfere with a smooth upgrade?
- would I lose root?
- custom kernel problematic?
thanks merlin

You have 2 options:
1. Wait for the official update OTA for your device to come
2. Flash the US rom and the KK OTA from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2578997 and follow the guide to the letter if you want it asap.

I don't get it. if we can simply install a GPE rom on our xt1032 and OTA update it to android l with needing to revert back to stock rom and unroot our devices, why is everyone talking about reverting back to original form and not just putting GPE and that's it.
can someone please explain?

I was thinking that if I convert my XT1032 to GPe I will get Android faster than waiting Motorola update ^^
i have the original moto g (xt1033) which is the dual sim variant.
but i have the xt1032 gpe image installed on it.
someone told me when the OTA comes out for lollipop and when i update my phone. the update might brick it. is there any chance of that happening?
Well your phone thinks that it's the xt1032, I wouldn't take the chance of flashing the XT1032 bootloader and bricking it. I'm in the same position as you right now, what I'm going to do is wait for the lollipop update to become a flashable .zip so i don't need to run OTA and flash the new bootloader which would make downgrading and unbricking impossible until it releases on XT1033... whereas a zip flashed in recovery would be pain-free and safe if you're already converted to xt1032, you know that atleast, I'm hoping, cause all single sim roms ontop of converted GPE xt1033 run the sim fine, but the OTA including bootloader is the bad part.
tl;dr: DONT install the OTA update, wait for a flashable zip and flash it over your converted setup or you risk bricking from new bootloader

Actually, being rooted can make the installation seem fine, when really it isn't.

In the first week of December Motorola push the updates of lollipop in India for moto g1, g2, and moto x user .. And globally in December 2nd week.
We will have to wait for some more time .. As they don't have any official information . i had chat with them
No lollipop yet
Sent from my XT1033 using XDA Free mobile app
Got an update for the Motorola Update-services app in the Play Store today.
It says in the release notes it is in preparation of the Lollipop update.
Hopefully it will also become available for the dual sim Moto G.
When I do the update check it still says my software is up-to-date..
I bought a XT1541 on Amazon, but the phone received had a Spanish 5.1.1 ROM while I live in France. So i have flashed the "XT1541 OSPREY RETEU 5.1.1" rom and now it didn't find the Marshmallow update ..
I have the 8Gb version, setting says "System version: 23.41.47.osprey_reteu.reteu.en.EU retes" and a friend with the same phone show the right version ("23.41.47.osprey_reteu.reteu.en.EU retfr")
Some help required to change retes to retfr
Thank you in advance
Why don't you install the stock MM firmware instead of waiting an OTA update?
However, I just installed CM13

I haven't ever seen "retfr" in any Moto G3, but you should forget this, CM13 is very good and very stable. What image of RETEU did you install?
PS: I am spanish and I bought my Moto G in Orange and I have received the OTA.

All french Moto G3 with stock rom i have seen have "retfr" like this:
I have tried all RETEU firmware (5.1.1, 6.0 and 6.0.1) and same problem..
"retes" can't be edited in build.prop, i have only the line before ("23.31.22.osprey_reteu.reteu.en.EU" for exemple in the uploaded image)
