I was dumb and tried to apply the OTA update to Android 5.0 on my rooted Moto G (1st gen). Now the phone boots into TWRP (v2.7.1.1), when I boot into system, the phone reboots itself in TWRP after a few seconds. Can I manually apply the update in TWRP? Or just get a non-spontaneously rebooting 4.4.4 back?
Thanks for all help!

Stand by
Good luck
The easiest thing would be to flash back to stock 4.4.4 and run the OTA update again.
I wanted to upgrade to 5.0.2 (as my OTA message appeared) from my current unlocked/rooted 4.4.4. I flashed back to stock 4.4.4 and now only see the upgrade to 5.0.1 OTA message
Maybe 5.02 is not available for the rom you flashed.
If you want to stop the automatic reboot, I guess you need to wipe cache within TWRP, this will delete the ota update and stop your phone from automatically reboot (it tries to update in an endless loop as it finds the update after each reboot).
It won't update of course, but this should prevent your phone from rebooting after few seconds.

Hi..!

People i know haven't even unlocked their bootloader
But can't update?
me too, have the same problem.
I'll just flash the 4.4.4 EU image for my XT1032...
and I'll do the same thing for when lollipop comes around
Its look like you must reset factory then direct updating your firmware..
have you unroot and relocked your bootloader?
Try restoring to stock: Flash 4.4.3, go to stock recovery and try to make the update search, if this is not working do a clean flash (wipe cache+userdata) and try to update, some time ago i noticed that cannot update the firmware of my 4.4.2 because the cmw recovery, then wiped cache and intalled stock recovery and everything went fine
To receive OTA updates device should be only on stock recovery no cmw, no twrp. Try to install stock recovery with fresh stock rom, and remember to enable any disabled system apps (if any) like Motorola services, Motorola OTA, then only you will able to receive and install updates....
You need the stock recovery
So I have XT1032 with Android 4.4.4, build number KXB21.14-L1.40. System version is 210.12.40.falcon_umts.EURetailSL.en.EU.
My phone isn't rooted, bootloader is locked and I don't have custom recovery.
I noticed a lot of people got the update on their european retail phones but I didn't get it so I tried to flash it manually in stock recovery. But when I try to flash 5.0.2 EURetail OTA, it just says "installation aborted" after like 20 seconds. Can anyone help me with this?
Have you updated all apps via the Play Store? I know I had to update some Motorola software before my Telus xt1032 would take the update.
Hi,
I have a UK Moto G (2013) running 4.4.4 KitKat and I installed CWM recovery and rooted it some time ago. Now they are pushing out Lollipop OTA I am getting nagged by the phone to update - but, it always fails when I try. Presumably this will be because of the CWM and/or root. I tried a full unroot but that didn't help as CWM kept complaining on the upgrade reboot about something (can't remember what now!). I've read that in order to get the OTA update to work, I have to get the phone completely back to stock, but I can't find a working stock recovery for it. Do I have to take it back to stock or not ? Either way, would anyone know how I can get the OTA update to work please ?
I've tried flashing a couple of stock recoveries, but one fails to flash at all and the other doesn't work - you choose recovery and it just reboots the phone.
At the moment it's back to rooted, unlocked bootloader and CWM recovery.
Any help you could offer would be very gratefully received.
Thanks!
Are you able to locate the phone's from here: http://www.filefactory.com/folder/c6cdedc45a775d27/?sort=filename&order=ASC&show=100&page=1
My device is a XT1033 unlocked bootloader with 5.0.2 Stock Rom Retail Brazil. I received a message from OTA. After this, I removed my root and flashed the stock recovery (OLD RECOVERY IS TWRP). But when I update, it doesn't update and reboot system with 5.0.2. I'm doing something wrong? Can someone please help me to make my Moto G back to stock firmware and update without any problems?
I didn't find any thread, so please help.
I'm new here!
