[Q] Can i do a OTA update?

Hey guys,
I have the Moto G and i unlocked te bootloader, did an custom recovery and rooted the device and i had a custom rom. But i got back to stock with this GUIDE and i got no rooted device and no custom recovery but i still have the unlocked bootloader, i also have a other stock image of the moto then normally! (I have the 210.12.32.falcon_umts.Retail.en.US version) and i need the global gsm version xt1032 if i am right. But my question is, can i get ota updates now? because i want android L!
Thanks already.

Sorry for bad english

Your warranty is just invalid but you'll be able to perform an ota update. If you have doubts flash a stock 4.4.2 firmware and update it via ota, I'm sure you'll be able to do it. You'll enjoy Andoid L, don't worry

Having an unlocked bootloader has no adverse effect on the ability to update via OTA. You can even be rooted, although, you will more than likely lose root upon updating, which shouldn't be too difficult to get back. The only things that would affect updating via OTA is if you have a custom recovery, or if you've modified/deleted any system files/apps.

I think that the best solution is to flash stock images, see Development forum to keep the istructions

does that mean it will lock the bootloader and also let me do the official lollipop update????
if yes then please give the links....

You don't need to lock the bootloader, just flash the stock image and you will get the OTA (when it is available).

can you please please please send me the links to flash stock images..

if i just unroot the device using the unroot option in super su...........................will i receive the lollipop update OTA.(keeping the bootloader unlocked)

no matter ur bootloader is locked or unlocked YOU WILL receive OTAs from motorola do not worry about that
since you have an indian xt1033 ( same as mine ) and if you are curious to get OFFICIAL LOLLIPOP update
you can try the following guide all you need is a UNLOCKED bootloader to do this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/install-brazil-5-0-ota-xt1033-t2963800
all the best !
PS: I am currently running on this OTA there is NO bugs , lags or any sort of probs ( both sims are working fine )

you may have downloaded wrong firmware.
And you need to use mfastboot.exe.
try http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/firmware-firmware-lollipop-retail-t3017383
where did you bought that phone??? asia retail version??? what is your phone model? xt1033?? xt1032?? gpe version.
Download right version firmware & try flashing again

[Q] XT1033 OTA lollipop upgrade failed... How to fix it?

Hi Guys,
I just received the XT1033 Lollipop notification and clicked upgrade.... Unfortunately the upgrade failed and I suspect perhaps that's because I have clockworkmod installed instead of the stock recovery?
Where do I go from here? How do I get my phone so the upgrade installs successfully?
I'm in New Zealand if that matters. Not sure if you get a different OTA update per country?
Also note, the phone is still working fine (ie not bricked or anything), just the upgrade is failing to install

Flash a stock ROM or gpe and upgrade from there.
Sent from my XT1039 using XDA Free mobile app

Which ROM, does it matter?
I keep seeing stock roms for Brazil/India/Asia, but I live in NZ so I'm not sure what to install. There doesn't seem to be any NZ roms
Plus none of the links in "how to restore to stock" tutorials and faq's seem to work anymore
Can you point me in the right direction please?

You can still install official lollipop if your phone has bootloader unlocked and custom recovery but I would suggest starting from scratch. If you bought phone from anywhere in Asia then flash stock asian KitKat ROM and if you bought it from Brazil then flash stock Brazilian KitKat rom. After that you can update your phone to official lollipop.
PS- there is no NZ ROMs for xt1033. Only Asian and Brazilian. It depends on the region from where you buy the phone, not where you live.

I bought it in NZ...
Aha! I found in the phone settings it says 210.12.40.falcon_umtsds.AsiaRetail.en.03
Asia rom it is then, I'll go try it out

You should not need to unlock bootloader to flash the fastboot firmware image.

Upgrading XT1032 bootloader

Hi all,
I just tried to upgrade my old CyanogenMod from January to a recent nightly and got hit by an error caused by my old KK bootloader (http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...uently-questions-t2996087/page24#post59520890). The guy in that thread offers a supposedly official Brazilian Lollipop bootloader, but I'm a bit hesitant 1) downloading something like that from unknown origin on the net and 2) I have a UK XT1032 (I think it was unbranded, bought in Tesco), not Brazilian. So what are my options?
Can I get the official bootloader from Motorola, by downgrading to 4.4.4 and then get the OTA? Or is it not available yet for my phone?
If I were to do that, can I unlock/root the phone again and get a custom ROM or is there no unlock yet for the Moto stock LP stuff?
What are my options, besides staying on my January CM ROM?
Thank you very much for any input!

You could manually flash the GB 4.4.4 stock ROM for the xt1032, update apps, take the 5.02 OTA update, and be running a Lollipop bootloader.

I just flash manually stock 5.0.2

Which version do you recommend for the xt1032?

Or, if you're skilled enough, just manually fastboot flash the tz, rpm, sdi, aboot and sbl1 partitions extracted from any 5.0.x OTA package for XT1032. I did the procedure on my 1031 (with corresponding files for the 1031, of course) and it worked nicely.

That sounds like a good plan. So
1) GB 5.02 OTA is already out for all XT1032 devices? I read somewhere else we're still waiting?
2) Is my phone still unlocked after this, i.e. can I install a custom recovery, root etc. and custom roms afterwards?
Thanks =)

The 5.02 OTA for GB ROM has been released from what I have read.
Once the phone is sim and bootloader unlocked, flashing ROMs, recoveries, etc. will not relock the bootloader or sim lock the phone.

That's great to know! My worries was about that flashing the bootloader could result in a newly locked one. Thank you very much!
