Moto G 1st Gen: Actually Got a Security Update - Moto G General

So this morning I received a notification about a new security update for 5.1 with patches up to march 2016.
Pretty impressive that Moto still pushed this out for a phone launched in 2013

so how can I get this on my rooted xt1033??

I think to get OTAs you need unmodified system partition.

My XT1033 is rooted and I still got the update notification, though I haven't updated yet.
Will it remove root access?

even if it does, you can root again

If someone could capture and upload the OTA Zip it would be appreciated.

With Root-access file explorer, browse to /cache and the OTA zip should be obvious. Copy / move to /SDCARD. Do this after accepting download but prior to flashing it.

hey, r u on Brazilian firmware?
um on indian firmware, rooted didn't get any notification.
if anyone share captured ota file of xt1033 (dual,Indian) it'll be appreciated.

Yes, I'm on brazilian firmware.
I've attached the update file here.

Just applied the update, phone still rooted. Didn't see anything different yet.

It's only a security update, with the majority of changes being related to files in /system/lib. On the surface, Android will be no different at all.

please post for asia firmware

Here's the US version attached.
My system version is reported as 221.21.58.falcon_umts.AWSRetail.en.US, but when I try to install the Moto update from TeamWin, it tells me that the package expects .../falcon_umts:5.1/LPBS23 etc../release keys and that I have .../falcon_umts:4.4.3/KBX21.14 etc../release keys.
Any idea?

I had a problem installing this security update.
I made a thread about my issue in Q&A here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/stuck-motorola-bootlogo-security-update-t3364145

It's mostly the recent stagefright patches + other security stuff it seems

This update broke my gf's system, she was running the brazilian 5.1, rooted with TWRP recovery installed.
Don't install this unless you flash stock recovery again and unroot, or flash the full firmware again, then apply OTAS, then root and install your custom recovery. (as usual with any OTA on a rooted system).
So good that Motorola had supported our phone for 2 years, could'nt be more satisfied.

You broke your gf system, by updating without firstly restoring everything to stock, next time think before acting

will optimised stock rom's recieve this update?

OK. I updated, root was retained. No need to side load it back. I didn't remove xposed first, I DID however turn off the modules. Everything is fine, turned mods back on and rebooted, still fine.

[XT1058] Android 5.1 link

Hello,
I've found a link to the supposedly OTA, but it didn't work with the same method for the 5.0.2, I mean copying to the memory of the phone and trying to update from the settings. I don't know if it is really the 5.1 OTA but feel free to give it a try. I've found it on a comment in a brasilian site: http://www.androidpit.com.br/moto-x-android-update. If any of you guys know how to update please let me know.

Goto the Confirmed Android 5.1 thread, around page 16, there is a mega link of a nadroid backup of 5.1 Brazil for twrp. Download it, extract it to the TWRP/backup folder, boot to recovery, backup your present ROM. Then restore the downloaded nandroid, wipe data, cache, and davlik cache only, reboot into system, profit. This way gpt and boot partitions remained in touched, and no need to revert to Brazilian KitKat, then to 5.0.2, then to 5.1 painful process.

You do not need to be rooted for this. You must have unlocked boot loader though because you need twrp
Oh I'm rooted matter of fact I'm on the N5X based ROM and its really Good..and I will extract and put inside the backup folder

Tested on my XT1058, worked like a charm! No need to mess with bootloader, fastboot nor any other tool... Download, add to memory, install, be happy!
Just as other OTA zips...
Ah, remember to install 5.0.2 OTA before this, link can be found on other threads...

Please don't! Many people bricked the device when trying to roll back from 5.X... If you install the soak test, it is better to wait for the final OTA update...
How to update
Yesterday I found out why in some cases when you place the file in the internal memory it doesn't work, you need to follow the updates sequence to make it work.
So from 4.4.4 you update to 5.0.2 (AKA .31):
Blur_Version.221.41.31.ghost_row.Brasil.en.BR
Then you apply this small patch that still 5.0.2 (AKA .38):
Blur_Version.221.41.38.ghost_row.Brasil.en.BR
And finally you apply the update to 5.1 (AKA .2)
Blur_Version.222.21.2.ghost_row.Brasil.en.BR
Happy flashing.
Kind regards,
Johnny

Yes. All OTA's have been incremental so far, and have a pre-flash validation check to ensure your phone is on the correct level, and if your phone isn't, it wont flash.
It doesn't surprise me that this follows that pattern especially based on its size

What will happen with the official 5.1 release then? They never released an official 5.0.2, so how can they expect people to be upgrading from 5.0.2?

Thanks a lot for the kind warning. After posting this comment I went through many other posts, especially the one by KidJoe. Chances are quite real that one can hard-brick his device by downgrading then upgrading through OTA again.

For those were invited to the MFN Test or Soak, Moto has their IMEI, knows what is on their phone, and will push them the appropriate update to 5.1 final, hence this file's preflash check looking for a particular 5.02. Since we know of two different 5.02 versions (one for the Brazil xt1058 and one for the XT1053), there will be at least two different 5.1 versions that Moto will push to those on the MFN test/soak list.
For the those NOT invited, as in the past Moto will likely compile and push a 4.4.4 -> 5.1 OTA zip for each carrier/model which will have a preflash check looking for the 4.4.4 for the particular carrier/model.
For those that manually applied the 5.x leaks because they were NOT invited to the MFN test/soak, Moto will NOT have their IMEI to push a special version, they will be off stock 4.4.4, and so any 5.1 push from the carrier/moto will fail to install due to the preflash check. They'll either need to revert to 4.4.4 (where GPT.BIN/Motoboot.img have been the cause of many bricks in the past when downgrading, so its expected to continue to be risky going forward), or wait for a leak of the OTA zip they need, or wait for a leak of the 5.1 SBF for their carrier/model.
That is why some suggested if you're not part of the MFN invites, you should wait on installing the 5.x leaks.

[XT1092][OTA][OFFICIAL][RETEU] 23.16.3 OTA Rolling out and ZIP captured

Hi guys,
It seems like 23.16.3 is rolling out for XT1092. I restored my Moto X 2014 to factory and upon first boot, it had an update available. Update doesn't contain anything new, but Stagefright fixes and a couple of bug fixes. File size is around 18.52 MB.
Unfortunately, I wasn't rooted when I was downloading the OTA, so, if anyone who is rooted and receives the OTA, kindly grab the zip from /cache folder and help the fellow XDA people
Screenshot after update below.
Download the OTA zip file here: https://docs.google.com/uc?authuser=0&id=0BwpO3632-7ANQzVTOVphdHFXcmM&export=download
(Thanks to renzs!)
or at the end of the post as attachment.
Place the zip in Internal Storage of the phone, and then check for update in Settings, and then press 'Install Now' :good:
OR
Install through ADB Sideload in Recovery
Go to Settings > About Phone and check for the following:
System version: 23.16.3.victara_reteu.reteuall.en.EU
Build number: LPE23.32-25.3
Congratulations! You have upgraded your phone to the latest OTA as of October 01, 2015.
Here you go guys. Untouched file captured from my cache folder.
I'm rooted and unlocked so have not flashed.

Im talking about the size of the download. Usually these minor updates are 200 MB.
Btw, this doesn't even include April security patch.
Just received B25 OTA but when I ask it to install, phone reboots into TWRP and I can't install from TWRP. Later I get a notification that update failed. I tried FlashFire, it detects the B25 OTA but will not install gives message "Unencrypted ....".

Problem that I have found was with the Fingerprint sensor. Before I could unlock my phone easy. Now I have to stick my tongue out, while standing on my head, one leg horizontal, and he the other leg vertical. Wiping cache helps a little but not a lot. I removed fingerprints and re-added them. Helps a little.

I don't understand the question. If you're on B25, there is no need. If you're on B19 and want the B25 update, you'll either need to be stock or wait for a flash package before updating, since you've modified some partitions.
The OTA files only work directly on fully stock phones.

Sorry if I weren't clear, currently I have Nougat 7.1.1 and my version is 0B19 and I want to install the 0B25 that was pushed OTA yesterday. I thought I was running B19 stock. I am Unlocked, TWRP and Rooted. If there is something that has been modified in my system then as you stated, I guess I have to wait for a B25 ZIP to flash.
Thank you for your help.

I'm here on April patch RETEU, but I'm rooted, with custom kernel and modified system.
What is the safe way to install the 7.1 OTA? I've already been notified about it.
Safe way is to flash everything from bootloader with a full package... OTA is to be avoided if you modified system and recovery.

Safest way is to flash my 7.1.1 stock rom, if you decide you don't like 7.1.1 you can safely move back or forth to any rom. Taking the OTA means you can't or should downgrade or you could end up hard bricked.

Yeah, I see. But the latest avaible full RETEU firmware is NPN25.137-24-1 and flashing this is not safe. Can I flash RETAIL april patch instead?
Got the update too but is your home button with Google animation? Mine turned into pixel home button 2 hours after the update

What did you use to root the Verizon model? I thought it can't be done.
Installation ok (Spain)
It was a long wait but i got it over here ( netherlands ) also.
No issues so far.

Didn't want to risk anything, so I flashed your ROM
Indeed, getting around the globe reached retus. Now is question, should I accept or not?
