Hey buddy Factory Reset is not necessary, but it is recommended. If you do it then the phone will be much faster (won't experience lag). Also wipe Cache so that you boot into a fresh ROM and avoid any issues.
Don't forget to make a backup first!

After you install 5.0. Just wipe cache and factory reset if possible.

1. Download the update.
2. Let it reboot.
3. Go into recovery.
4. Wipe cache.
5. Restore backups (if any), reboot.
6. Continue to use phone as usual.
7. Enjoy.

So you let it reboot once then you turn off phone again and go into recovery?

Ok cool thanks for your help [emoji14] (sorry for the nooby questions I'm not used to wiping cache after OTA lol)

No problem. Wiping cache just after OTA supposedly helps the new software that has been installed.
I've never done it in any of my phones, not with the moto g. I also haven't faced any lag and I never factory reset or wiped my cache after OTA. But your results may vary. Better safe than sorry my friend. Good luck!

Go to the Settings > Info (the last voice) and paste here the content.
However, I think the best way is restore the original rom (or the previous one).
you might need to change the firmware
try downloading this firmware http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1581193
and flash it via odin

Are you clearing cache and performing factory/data wipe reset as it sounds like your trying to install it on an older version of Android
Thanks for your response, TechMinerUK!
No, I haven't performed factory/data wipe reset and yes, I was in fact trying to install it on an older version of Android (2.3.x.x). If you are sure that I'm required to perform a factory/data wipe reset prior to installing [ROM][4.4.4] CyanogenMod 11.0 [NIGHTLY/OTA], I will give it a try tonight.

...one more thing
Hi,
one more thing: I realised that still not everything works perfect. Somehow I cant install any apps from the playstore. Whenever I try to download an app (I have "gapps light" gapps-kk-4.4.0-signed.zip installed) it aborts at 6%, no matter what size the download is. Any idea?

Re-Flash the ROM then as it appears to be an issue within the ROM (Format Cache as well)
You can also try flashing minimalist gapps.... You system memory might be too low to correctly iinstal the full gapps. Just google minimalist gapps for you android version
Hi,
i searched many threads here on xda to find a solution, but nothing works. I tried different recovery versions of twrp, cwm(philz) and the official cyanogenmod version.
I tried to flash it with sideload.
I think the problem is only with Lollipop ROM, cm-bacon-XNPH38R.zip he was able to flash.
I added a screenshot where the error happens.
I hope you guys can help me, please tell me if you need any more information?
And sorry for my bad english. ^^
Thanks in advance!

It looks like you're not wiping fully (system, data, cache, dalvik cache) before flashing.
Are you using multirom? That error is common if the updater-script file isn't multirom compatible

I did a full wipe and i don´t use multirom, i found the threads with those problems.

You definitely wiped system and data? Did you check the md5 of the ROM zip after downloading it?

I only wiped dalvik, system and cache. You really think wipe data makes a difference?
The MD5 is correct.

Why did you say you'd done a full wipe when you hadn't? It's incorrect information like that that makes troubleshooting difficult. [emoji52]
Yes, wiping data makes a huge difference. Of course it does, you're leaving incompatible data behind, even if the flash succeeded you'd have bugs galore. You're supposed to do a full wipe (system, data, cache, dalvik cache) when you flash a new ROM.

Flashing is failing complete and i thought wiping data makes no difference in the flash progress. When the flash progress finishes i wanted to do a full wipe of data. If i wipe data, does it delete the content on the simulated sdcard(internal storage) too or only the app data?

No it doesn't touch your personal data, only app data and settings. Still doesn't answer why you said you'd wiped data when you hadn't.

I'm gonna go with @timmaaa on this one too with the new info you added. The hint to me is right in the screenshot. It can't flash over incompatible data.
You're not trying to flash f2fs ROM on ext4 are you? Or vice versa? What ROM are you trying to flash?

Hi guys. I was having this problem. I was at TWRP v2.8.0. My device was rooted and I used the goomanager app to update my twrp and after install the latest version(2.8.5) I solve my problem and now I have the CM12S installed.

Either flash the latest TWRP zip file I believe its upto 2.8.6.0, or simply download the TWRP manager app from the play store and install it that way. Once installed just boot into Recovery and flash CM12s
Use clockwork work mod unofficial v6.0.4.8. Working.or else use liquid smooth nightly
