By now, with all the OTA's, unless you are brand new to the 2013 X, you know you have to have stock recovery on your phone for an OTA Update or Soak Test to install, and your system can't be modified too much or it will fail the pre-flash validation checks built into the OTA.zip. (i.e. there is a manifest file that checks for specific files and their check sums before it will flash the ota).
If you have an unlocked bootloader, and rooted by flashing a 3rd party recovery (like TWRP, CWM, Philz, etc) and installing SuperSU, you likely didn't put stock recovery back on your phone.
IF you are close enough to stock (like I am... stock, unlocked, rooted, with adfree, wifi tether for root, greenify, Quick boot, and a few other apps that require root), you can just flash stock recovery and take the OTA.
The steps in this post help you do that, or get ready to do that, in case you are not near your PC when an OTA comes, of if you just don't want to use your PC.
NOTE: If you have changed too much of stock that the OTA fails, please see -> [FAQ] How to prepare for and take an OTA update (All Carriers)
NOTE: the following worked when updating 4.4 to 4.4.2, and 4.4.2 to 4.4.4 on my VZW Dev Edition X. Since Lollipop has not yet been released for my phone, I can't test this yet.
Note: If you have flashed your phone with another carrier's ROM, or have only flashed "parts" of your phone, these steps may not work!! Or they may cause you to brick!
NOTE: If your Bootloader version does NOT match the one for your phone's software version, taking an OTA could brick your phone!
You must have an Unlocked Bootloader and be rooted for these steps to work:
Obtain the STOCK Moto Recovery image, and TWRP image, for your phone:
On you phone, go App Drawer -> Settings... Make note of what is listed under System Version, and Android Version.
Visit one of the sites listed in -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/info-tip-web-sites-official-leaked-roms-t2923347 and obtain the EXACT same ROM/SBF file that is currently on your phone. Download the ZIP to your PC.
Unzip or extract the RECOVERY.IMG file from the SBF ZIP file.
Download the latest TWRP Recovery from -> http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/234 (under the Download-Fastboot heading)
the latest SuperSU from -> http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu or the latest CWM / TWRP / MobileODIN installable ZIP from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053
Flashing Recovery
Place your stock recovery.img, the latest TWRP img, and the latest SuperSU.zip in your phone's DOWNLOAD folder.
Install Rashr.
On your phone, launch Rashr.
Scroll down and select other from storage
Browse and select your stock recovery
When it completes, pick the option to reboot to stock recovery.
Your device should reboot and display the Motorola logo and then the Android in distress (logo with Exclamation mark)
Press and hold the VOL UP key for 10-15 seconds. While still holding the VOL UP key tap and release the POWER key. You should be in Stock recovery now.
Reboot your phone as normal.
To reflash TWRP or other custom recovery, as long as you are still rooted, you can repeat the same steps, selecting your custom recovery in step 5.
How to SIDE LOAD an OTA.ZIP via this process
If your carrier has started the push of the OTA ZIP for your phone, but you haven't received it, and you've found the correct OTA ZIP posted online and would like to flash it, the following steps can be used...
Download the OTA ZIP file (usually named as BLUR_XXX.XXX.XXX.zip, where XXX.XXX.XXX is the build number the ZIP will update) to your phone's /SDCard
Perform steps 1-7 under Flashing Recovery above to flash STOCK recovery onto your phone, and reboot into Stock Recovery.
Use the Vol Down key to scroll to Apply Update From SDCard, and press the Power key to select.
Use Vol Down key to scroll to your OTA zip file, and press Power to select.
The install will begin by verifying the update package, then verifying files on your phone match.
If the install fails, it will be reported on the screen, along with why. (usually because you have modified system files, or are not on the correct ROM version). You need to fix these errors and try again.
If verifications are successful, the patching process steps will begin. This may take several minutes.
Your phone should report Script Succeeded and Install from sdcard Complete.
Ensure Reboot System Now is highlighted, and press the Power key to reboot the phone.
The initial reboot may take longer than a regular reboot.
Note: You will see Android Is Upgrading or Optimizing screen during the boot process, that is normal.
After the update install process is complete, use Rashr to flash TWRP (again, other from storage and pick your TWRP). When prompted, reboot into recovery (so twrp sticks). When in TWRP, select reboot to system.
If you lost root, reboot into TWRP recovery and install SuperSU.zip
How to Root with unlocked bootloader...
If you unlocked your bootload by getting the code from Moto, after taking the OTA you may root by following ->http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/how-to-how-to-root-5-1-unlocked-t3140217 NOTE: while the thread is titled for 5.1, it works on older Android versions as well.
Good work KidJoe :laugh::good:
I guess this will be more relevant as Soaks start heading out for the 2013 X...
Good post. Can I use the same process on MotoX 2014 pure? I have turned Moto OTA to get rid of constant "update available" notification, if I turn that back on, do you know where the OTA zip file is downloaded (i'm thinking cache )

Yes, the OTA zip is usually stored in /cache (at least is is on the 2013 X, and my past Moto phones). it is usually named for the rom it is upgrading, not what the upgrade takes you to.
I don't see why this wont work on the 2014 X, as it did on older motos too.

In TWRP you can make a nandroid backup. I've never done it. I haven't had need because I run stock. If I need to reflash, I just reflash the same SBF I've been running.
I followed the instructions in the OP to return to stock recovery, then applied the OTA update Blur_Version.213.44.1.ghost_row.Retail.en.US, but am failing with this message
/system/etc/install-recovery.sh has unexpected contents
I haven't knowingly modified any system files, although I am rooted. Any thoughts about what this error might mean and how to resolve it?

What ROM is on you phone to start with? On your phone go App Drawer -> Settings -> About.. tell me the Android Version, System Version and Build Number. Also what model X do you have?
213.44.1.ghost_row.Retail.en.US is an XT1053 4.4.4 update file for the XT1053 if I'm not mistaken. It is meant to be applied to a 4.4.3 stock rom, and it might apply to a 4.4.2 stock rom..
The OTA file will fail its pre-flash validation checks if you are not on the intended stock rom.

Thank you. I'm embarrassed that I didn't perform sufficient due diligence. I am already on the same system version as the update (213.44.1.ghost_row.Retail.en.US ), which I mistakenly thought was to get to Lollipop from 4.4.4.
there any way to make a dump the stock recovery in Lollipop, without the need root?

Yeah, OTA Update files are often named including the version the phone must be on, not the version it takes the phone to.
Do I need to uninstall xPosed & GravityBox before I sideload L ? I guess, Kitkat version of xposed worn't work in L anyway.

It's ABSOLUTELY BEST you avoid the update............but....
If you can't, it is highly recommended that you clean flash it...kind of the only choice. Flash the 4.4.4 Brazilian stock ROM. And install the update from recovery. You can reroot after adding TWRP back.
I am also on stock rom 4.4.4. But i dont have this rom on my pc for reflashing. Please provide link for download or some info related to it

As explained elsewhere... Xposed makes changes to /system which cause OTA updates to fail their pre-flash validation checks.
It is recommended to boot to TWRP and install /SDcard/Android/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/files/Xposed-Disable-Recovery.zip then uninstall XPosed.
You will also need to undo any changes to /system or other parts the the OTA tries to validate before installing, or else it will fail.
You are correct that a newer version of Xposed is needed.
You may also want to wait on trying the 5.0.2 Leaks because if they are an early limited early test version, rather than a soak which is nearly ready to be pushed to all, you could be stuck on this version until an SBF leaks.

Update
Hello! I spent a while researching and learning about my XT907. I absolutely love this phone and I am in love with Android 4.4, but I was also keen to try other versions. So I gathered everything you need to flash ANY Android custom ROM and or Stock Firmware to your XT907.
There are (or were. I'll explain below) several custom ROMs for this device, most of which were built for phones with a Jellybean 4.1 bootloader, IF it's unlocked. In the case of this device, if you didn't unlock it before June of 2014, then your bootloader is likely still locked which means you can't put any custom ROMs on it
There is still light at the end of the tunnel though. You can pay 'Sunshine S-Off' US$25 to unlock the bootloader for you. You can still be rooted to use their app, but if you have Xposed framework installed, you'll have to uninstall it first. They accept many different types of payment, including Bitcoin! However if you don't want to spend the money, the XT907 CAN BE ROOTED! Simply download and install the latest version of KingRoot then go here and follow the steps to replace it with SuperSU.
When it comes to restoring your firmware back to stock (in case you brick your phone), @sd_shadow and his list of phone saving tutorials is the place to go. If you want a custom ROM, see below
Over the last few years, it's become incredibly hard, almost impossible, to find everything you need to flash a custom ROM to your XT907, including the ROM itself. This becomes more the case with older versions of Android. Today, that has come to an end. I've spent the better part of a week or so gathering every single file you need to flash firmware or every custom ROM version from Android 4.1.2 to 7.1. Just go to the Google Drive link posted below, click/tap on XT907, and there you go. Everything is placed in it's own set of folders, with the exception of optional APKs. You can get detailed installation instructions at the respective links below.

[Tutorial] Flashing CM 12.1 custom ROM (Lollipop 5.1), SuperSU and Xposed Framework
***REQUIRES UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER***
If you don't want to downgrade your XT907 to a JBBL (Jellybean bootloader) then follow the tutorial below to flash the CyanogenMod 12.1 (Lollipop 5.1) custom ROM, SuperSU and install Xposed Framework onto your UNLOCKED XT907. This is for the KitKat BOOTLOADER ONLY.
WARNING: I am not responsible for any damage you may cause to your device and or other individuals. Use this guide AT YOUR OWN RISK.
1) Please download the appropriate folder labeled 5.1-Android-CM12.1-KKBL from my Google Drive link.
2) Make sure to have the appropriate Motorola and ADB drivers installed or this will not work.
3) Power off your phone.
4) Now press and hold, all at the same time, volume down + volume up + power button for 5 seconds. Release the power button first and 2 seconds later, release the volume buttons.
5) You should now be in your recovery screen. Use the volume down button to navigate to AP fastboot and press volume up to select it.
6) Now plug your phone into your PC. Make sure to have a good cable.
7) Now open the folder you just downloaded from Google Drive. Extract the file named TWRP-KKBL-XT907.zip to the same folder, or your desktop (whatever is easy for you).
8) Open the folder you just unzipped and place the file 'recovery.img' in the same folder as ADB.
9) Open an ADB command window (right click on your opened ADB folder and select 'open command window here') and type fastboot devices. This will show you if your device is properly connected. If you see a serial number and the word 'device' next to it, continue to the next step.
10) Now it's time to install a custom recovery. Type in the following code below. Make sure you placed the recovery.img into your ADB folder.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
11) You will see about 3 lines of errors. Just ignore them. When the process is complete (you'll know it's done when you see something like C:\) type the following line below:
Code:
fastboot reboot
12) Please keep your phone plugged in. When it's finished rebooting, in the ADB window type:
Code:
adb reboot recovery
13) If all goes well, you should have TWRP custom recovery properly installed on your XT907. You will see a list of several things. Now we are going to flash CM 12.1 to your device. Keeping your phone plugged in, you should be able to freely move files while in TWRP recovery. On your desktop PC click: start > computer > XT907 > Double click internal storage. (NOTE: If you can't move files in recovery, reboot normally and place the files into your device's internal storage manually as described below).
14) Go back to the folder you downloaded earlier and copy the file labeled cm-12.1-20160822-NIGHTLY-xt907.zip. Paste it into the INTERNAL STORAGE of your device. DO NOT place it in any other folder or directory. Again go back to the folder you downloaded earlier and copy the file labeled open_gapps-arm-5.1-nano-20170830.zip. Also paste it into your phone's internal storage (the same place as the CM file).
15) Now on your phone, from TWRP recovery main screen, tap 'wipe'. Now look at the bottom where the arrows are. It should say 'swipe to factory reset.' Please swipe the button. When it's finished, go back to the TWRP home screen and tap 'install'. Navigate to where you placed the CM12.1 file and select it. Now tap 'Add more zips' on the screen near the bottom left. Navigate to the open_gaaps file and select it. Look at the top of the screen and it should say you have '2 of max of 10 files queued'. If so find the arrows at the bottom where it says 'swipe to confirm flash'. Go ahead and swipe it.
16) When the process is finished (it might take a minute or two), from the TWRP home screen, tap 'Reboot' and select 'System'. Your phone will reboot. The reboot process can and usually will take SEVERAL minutes to complete the first time. During the reboot process, DO NOT TURN OFF YOUR PHONE or attempt to reset it. Just let it go about it's business. In about 5-8 minutes you should have booted to your new custom CyanogenMod 12.1 (Lollipop 5.1.1). Go ahead and continue with the setup process.
Flashing SuperSU and installing Xposed Framework
1) When done with your general setup, navigate to the folder you downloaded from Google Drive earlier. Copy the file labeled SuperSU-v2.82-201705271822.zip and paste it into the internal storage of your device (The same place as before). If you've been successful up to this point, you can delete the other zip files you added to your device earlier.
2) Use ADB to reboot to recovery. From TWRP home screen tap install and navigate to the SuperSU zip file you just added and select it. Now go down to the arrows at the bottom and please 'swipe to confirm flash'. When the steps have completed, go back to TWRP home screen and tap reboot then system. SuperSU (Super User) is now flashed to your system and you are now ROOTED. With Wifi on, you can go to the Google Play Store and download the updated SuperSU app. When installed, open it and it will ask you to update the binary. Please install using the 'normal' method. If successful, allow SuperSU to reboot your device.
3) If you would like to install the Xposed Framework onto your phone, you can follow the guide here. Also available at the link are the files to install Xposed. You can also use the ones I provided inside the folder you downloaded from Google Drive earlier. They are the same files as in the guide linked in this step.
If you have any trouble or if I missed a step, please post comments. Also post success stories so I know I did something good!

Hello, I have a rooted, unlocked Samsung Galaxy S5 -SM-G900V. I want to update to Marshmallow 6.0 or higher and keep the root and unlock or easily add those after I update to 6.0. I have downloaded the Samsung usb driver onto my laptop and Odin3_v3.09 (however, I have read different recommendations and am confused which version I should use). I tried to find firmware to download from sammobile.com/firmwares but when I type in my phone it doesn't recognize it. 1. What is a simple way to update to 6.0 and keep a root and unlock? 2. Which version of Odin3 should I use? 3. What it is the list of things I need to download to do it? Thank you
Update using FlashFire. This will no update your bootloader. Later in odin3 update the correct modem and nonhlos for they specific MM firmware (QD1,QF2,QH2)
This worked for me

I just finished updating from 5.0 to 6.0.1 pre-rooted using this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve.../testers-required-easier-root-method-t3561529
Scroll down and follow jrkruse's great very clear instructions. However, before you start make sure Reactivation lock under Settings --> Security is turned off. You have to sign into a Samsung account for this to work. If you forget that step you'll get stuck at the 13th step and have to reimage with stock again. to disable it.

Thank you for the information, I appreciate it!
1) As suggested, I made sure the reactivation lock was not selected,
2) I downloaded jrkruse's eMMC_CID_Checker_.apk to Check my CID
3) then downloaded the file EMMC_15_Root_Bootloader_Unlock S5_QB2_PB1.zip
4) As suggested I moved the the root s5 folder (but I didn't see those exact file names in the folder so I am attempted to download them individually
((EMMC_15_SafeStrap_QA1_6_0_1_MM_Bootloader_Unlock_A IO.zip, The link I click on for this one doesn't seem to work and the EMMC_15_VZW_QB2_STOCK_MAGISK_ROOT.zip)) when I try and download that it says I don't have any storage space . The total space I have is 16gb it says 300 mb available. I also have an sd card that is 122gb available. I moved several apps to that the sd card, cleared caches and pictures and videos... with no luck. Do you have any suggestions?
for my not_unlockable bootloader, the EMMC_11_ Root S5_QB2_PB1.zip contained a folder, an MD5 file, and 2 zip files. I checked for your unlockable bootloader, and found much the same; hope this helps. I copied those to an SD card, and continued from there.
