Hi guys
I've just recieved the new security update from HTC, but when I try to install it the phone shuts down, and a white triangle with an ! mark and a little droid man standing by it apears and nothing happens. The only way I can turn the phone back off to reboot is by removing the battery.
Have any of you experienced problems with the new OTA?
My phone is rooted, but with stock ROM and nothing other than the stock font has been changed on the phone, so I can see emoji characters.
I've also tried to download the update a few times, to make sure I didn't download a currupt file or something, but it doesn't help either.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.
Edit:
Well I found out that I could boot with CWM Recovery and force install of the OTA from the download folder problem fixed!
hey how can i get this update to download it. im`
s-off rooted but i dont have the stock rom. by updating this update i will lose my root?
can i root back like i did?
I doubt you can get the update when you have a custom ROM.
Alright so I have a 2013 Moto G, and basically in the past while on KitKat I've rooted my phone, given it custom recovery (TWRP), and messed around with the ROM (changed it to CM, PA and a few others and back). Now I've come to update to Lollipop and of course I need stock recovery to update my phone via OTA, and when it first prompted me to update, I had TWRP and I didn't really think, I just updated, this sent my phone into a bootloop, rebooting straight into TWRP every time I turned my phone on. Luckily I had a backup and I just restored to that and that fixed it. Recently I've been trying to fix the correct stock recovery for my phone so I can update, and I found some MotoTool AIO thing, and that changed my recovery back to KitKat stock (or so it says), now when I go into recovery it LOOKS like stock, can do everything you could normally do with stock recovery, but when I came to update it, about a quarter of the way though the update process, it errors and reboots my phone. Luckily this time my phone recognizes it has errored and just cancels the update instead of sending me into a boorloop. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Tom.

Try putting twrp back on and flashing stock Lollipop Rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/development/rom-stock-motorola-lollipop-rom-t3017510 You can also try aosp, cm12.1 or any other lollipop ROM.
The Lollipop OTA is very picky, I believe any modifications to the stock firmware will cause the update to fail. You will need to have a completely stock system for the OTA to install successfully. Find the correct KitKat firmware for your phone and flash it then try upgrading.
Hi.
I'm having a similar problem with te OTA being picky (topic here).
Is there a stock firmware "file map" so that we can check manually what is wrong and erase/add needed files ?
Maybe this could be done by checking a flashable stock rom ?
Thanks a lot guys.
EDIT : Found a solution here http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...osing-apps-t2979971/post57658072#post57658072.
Worked perfectly !
OP, I am in the same situation. I did the same as you, and got the same results. Have you managed to solve it? It would be nice if you tell what you decide to do and what's the outcome. Thanks!

Update to 5.1 success..... erm, well it's all relative
Eventually managed to update my XT1039 to 5.1 via ota.
Started with a fully charged phone and flashed 4.4.4 stock firmware (http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/4g-development/xt1039-moto-g-4g-stock-firmware-kxb21-t2805619).
Once completed, powered up phone and signed into google play then updated the motorola update services app.
DO NOT install a custom recovery or root yet or the update will fail!
Start the update by going into settings/about phone/system updates.
After first boot into 5.1, do a factory reset.
To root once the upgrade is completed, download cf autoroot (http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/4g-development/root-xt1039-cf-auto-root-peregrine-t2942406) and unzip to a folder on your pc. Open a command prompt and change directory to this folder. Powerup handset in bootloader mode (hold vol down while switching on), connect USB and run 'root-windows.bat' from the command prompt.
So far I'm hugely disappointed in the update as I use WiFi tethering alot and it appears to be a massive fail. I know it wasn't 100% in 4.4.4 or CM12 5.1 with both reqiuring an occasional reboot, but in 5.1, something's just not right and it's basically unusable (could it be updated radio or something?). Fortunately, USB tethering appears flawless.
Another obsrvation seems to be abscence of a + appearing in the HSPA signal indicator, I seem to be getting just the H appearing regardless.
Also no more bluetooth visibilty timeout setting.
After installing CWM 6.0.5.0, I got gliches with the display in recovery mode but it works.
Now after I have it rooted, ad free and de-bloated, fixed the power on logo and installed CWM 6.0.5.0, I'll stick with it for a while to just to see how the battery lasts.
In hindsight I should've stuck with CM12 5.1.
Brazilian Moto G XT1033, bootloader unlocked, actually using Stock ROM 5.0.2 with Stock Recovery
Hello guys
Well, I was with rooted Stock 5.0.2 ROM 2 days ago, when it notified me that was an update available, so I know that I can't update by OTA with a rooted phone.
I wiped system/cache/dalvik and installed Stock ROM 4.4.4 by ADB+mfastboot for remove the root and be able to update normally.
When the cell started, I updated the "Motorola update service" in Play Store and searched for new updates (Settings > About phone > System updates). A few seconds and it returned the following message: "Check for update was not available at this time. Try again later.".
So, I downloaded the Stock ROM 5.0.2 and installed it by the same way (Wipe > Install by ADB/mfastboot) hoping that it will solve my problem... But it didn't ;(
I did some factory resets, some cache wipes etc and nothing worked for me.
I also installed the stock 5.0.2 recovery again as I saw in a forum topic, but still didn't work.
It is everything right with my phone and network connections.
This message keeps popping up, and I can not update.
Can anyone please help me? Thanks
(Sorry if I had a bad english, still learning...).
@Thales Lima : 1: keep patient, will have update after 1 day or more. If it said: system up to date=> cant update
2: you can download OTA zip file for xt1033, copy to phone( not put in any folder), and check update,it will update manually. Its ok like auto update.
Thanks for replying, thuybang!
I will be patient and wait and see if was a motorola's update server error
And... Where can I find the XT1033 5.1 ROM (zip file) for download?
OTA zip file update 5.1( not ROM 5.1). https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_JZx92EYN28YUJyT0JmNlJqRWM/view
After download, u change name to : 221.21.56 ( only number), and put in phone...
Whoooa, where did you find it? ^^
Thank you a lot!
------------ EDIT -------------
I pushed the zip file right named to my SD Card (none folder), and looked again for updates, and it returned the same message (Check for update was not available at this time. Try again later.). Can I update using a Custom Recovery > Install ZIP??
------------ EDIT -------------
The first download was corrupted, I guess... I downloaded it again and now I'm with 5.1 installed ^^ (I installed using the method mentioned by you, thuybang)
Buuut... I still can't connect to the update server and check for new updates ;(
If a new update come available for XT1033, I won't get it =/
No,u have to use stock recovery. When u check update,if it not work, go to recovery, choose: apply update from SD card,hope it work.

Alright, but... Even when I knew that there was some updates available (when I was with 4.4.4), it returned the same message (that hell message saying that couldn't connect to the update server). But it's alright, when comes a new update available I'm gonna install it manually.
Thank you again, thuybang ^^
--------------- EDIT ---------------
Whooa! I think that it really was an update server's fail, now it's normal '-'

Hello guys,
Last days my phone has not been playing very nicely with me.
I did a complete wipe (using flashtool and wiped everything).
Then I reflashed latest 32.3.A.2.33 firmware and custom kernel (sunkernel 376_Aigoo_1_6_7) as can be seen on my screenshot.
So right now I am on .33 firmware and everything is fine, except that I keep still getting a notification that a system update is available (which is the same .33 update).
So I downloaded it and tried to install it, but it fails and then again I keep getting notified with this update... while im already on the latest firmware.
Any idea's how I can fix it?
- I've already tried reflashing firmware again 2 times.
- I tried unrooting and installing the update but again it failed.
Sony Xperia Z5 Nougat 32.3.A.2.33 + sunkernel 376_Aigoo_1_6_7
Any suggestions would be appreciated, well accept for flash firmware again, as im tired of that at the moment
Thanks :good:
Delete with Root Explorer the Sony Software Update App in system.
Make first a backup with TT Backup.
Reboot.
Thats what I always do.
Hello everyone!
I just download the last update via update in the phone and normally it boots me into TWRP then I search install it and thats it. The thing is that this last update unfortunately when the logo is installing in the middle throw me an error E1001 Error 1 and semi brick my phone, when I choose restart it literally throws me back to Fastboot.
Did anyone encounter the same fate? Or maybe my update file got corrupted?
Any ideas how can I fix this and have the last update installed for this ROM?
Thank you!

Try August 1st update. Dev quickly fixed it probably after 31st July build.
Where can I download that? on the webpage the last build with GAPPS is the 31st
Thanks for the reply
I just redownload the update for the 31st with GAPPS and now booted like a charm.
I believe my OTA Updater file got corrupted or something like that.

Nice to hear that. Sometime, updating directly from phone turn out disaster (4 from 5 in my case). Thus I prefer to download the build in the PC then do the update manually. Please note that it may caused by my network stability also.
