If you haven't already done so, install Rom Manager and flash Clockworkmod Recovery. It doesn't replace the actual recovery partition or the files that restore it so it won't affect flashing the update.
If you received an OTA notice don't flash it. You can go into /system/cache and copy it, or download it from the links in other threads. Place the update zip (no need to rename it) on the root of your sd card.
To install the update you must be fully stock (root is okay). That means any changed or deleted system files (including bootanimation.zip) will prevent the update from flashing. You will get a status 7 error. If you used Bloat Freezer you must defrost all before flashing the zip or it will error.
Also, have available whatever zip you used to root your Nexus one (i.e., su.zip or superboot, etc.) and put on the root of your sd card.
Once your system is back to stock reboot into CWM recovery and select flash zip from sd card. Then flash the 2.3.6 update file. Then DO NOT reboot yet. Now flash your root zip. After you have flashed both the udpate and the root zip you can reboot your phone. No need to wipe anything.
When your phone reboots you will have 2.3.6 and it will still be rooted. No bootloader gymnastics necessary.
I am using stock (almost) version of GRJ22 , but unfortunatelly I got the status 7 error when I tried to apply the update via clockworkmod recovery. I guess that's because I have already integrated some system apps into ROM using Titanium Backup.
So, if I flash stock vanilla GRJ22, then SU, then GRK39F (the incremental update) and finally SU again, won't that do the job??
Thanks..

Yes, that will do nicely. Just need to get back to GRJ22 stock before you can flash the udpate. The updater-script does an assert and checks the md5 checksum of every system file before it allows the update to flash. If it doesn't find all stock files or checksums don't match what it is looking for, you get a status 7 error and the line above will show which file it stopped on. So you can look at those messages and keep restoring files it wants (if only a few) without having to flash completely back to stock.
I guess that would take much time, as almost all of my google apps are integrated into ROM...so I will try to follow the procedure I wrote earlier and if that won't work, I will try a ready stock,rooted ROM (Fireb33 has done it already)..
thanks mate..
Why so complicated?
You can update to 2.3.6 AND keep root even much more simple:
1.) Update from OTA to 2.3.6 (and loose root).
2.) Flash Superboot from Madaco and get back root.
Done in 3 minutes.. No need to flash, recover, overwrite and/or whatever, no need for ADB, no messing:

Well, yep. That method indicates your (phones) bootloader is unlocked. But as it's the N1, unlocking the bootloader is just 19 (up to 25) characters away -> "fastboot(-linux) oem unlock".
Edit: By the way, i looked up that post from an android platform engineer:
Code:
groups.google.com/group/android-platform/msg/b7d83992dd92accb?dmode=source
The N1 is just made for that.
tried superboot but wifi down
I flashed the update for 2.3.6 and then superboot but my wifi gives an error when I try to turn it on.
New Superboot file for GRK39F?
Is there a new Superboot file for the new OTA update?

I want to update to gingerbread and looking for the proper guidance going forward. I've done some looking around the forums but i'm still unclear if i need to unroot or install a stock build, etc. What i know is the phone is rooted and sim unlocked. How can i check to see if the bootloader is open/locked?
Current specs:
android version 2.2.1
Baseband 32.41.00.32U_5.08.00.04
Kernal Version 2.6.35.9-cyanogenmod
Mod Version: Cyanogenmod-6.1.1-N1
Build: FRG83D
edit:
Please treat me like an idiot and walk me through this process. It's be utterly frustrating and I'm a stone's throw away from busting out my Nokia 3390 (equipped with led disco keypad).

thanks for this.....i'll try your tools later, now i'm not able to use pc!!!
Will this restore the Indian Version to stock as well?

A and B should work on ANY XT1068 as it's a Retail for ALL Dual sim, (it may or may not have certain languages) but if you can find your original firmware it's a easy job to add the automated script

I dont think so as you can still download OTA with modified Roms, but you need Stock recovery to install - but if it worries you edit the .bat script to remove the line with logo2.bin in it near end of script.
if we cant OTA install, but have a OTA zip of Lollipop we can modify it and just flash it via mfastboot method anyway

I don't know, I'm quite new to Motorola phones but I read in this forum more than once that for OTA updates (atleast for the lollipop one) you must have a completely stock rom, even a frozen system app would make the update fail to install.

as of 14/01/2015 firmware B is Accepting OTA zip update (copy to internal memory AND SDCARD ) to Lollipop 5.0.2 from india
bro can you please upload Firmware KXB21.85.23 (DSDS ALL) to google drive as some people are not able to access mediafire??!!
Hello guys!
This is the OTA file containing some security fixes for that Stagefright bullcrap and some stability fixes too.
You need to be on Android 5.1 GPE Firmware, compilation number LMY47M.M001.
Put the *.ZIP on the internal storage, then go to Settings > About Phone > System Updates and this will be applied. (This is NOT 5.1.1, it's just 5.1. No bigger System updates seem to be planned for Moto G GPE, since this device is 18 months old now).
NOTE: This wont flash in any other ROM or Firmware. Also, this wont flash on TWRP, CWM or any other custom recovery. You need to have stock AOSP recovery from GPE firmware.

I'd like to include this patch in my GPE ROMs. It would be helpful if someone could do a fresh install of the GPE Firmware, apply this OTA Update and then make a TWRP Backup or System Dump via ADB:
adb shell
su
busybox tar czvf /sdcard/systemdump.tgz /system
exit
exit
adb pull /sdcard/systemdump.tgz
Note: No personal data will be included.

You need to have:
1. Untouched System partition (that means NO ROOT, nor ROOTED AND THEN UNROOTED System partion)
2. Stock AOSP recovery fron GPE Firmware...
So I'd reccomend you to reflash the entire GPE firmware, then apply this patch! :fingers-crossed:

you should have the GPE firmware zip, then unzip the file, put the contents in the folder which contains fastboot files, then uncompress the zip file in the attachments below, put the bat file in the same folder as the firmware files,
Then Run the bat file, voila!! you'll be on clean GPE 5.1.
Then setup the moto G and apply the stage fright update when notified.
Then flash the stock motorola radio/modem files to get back signal
then flash twrp to get root.

Just the initial version/modem check on updater-script. You can compare both zips if you want (original OTA and modified OTA).

I reflashed everything and it worked. Thanks for your help.
Mine does not work (I am using TRWP). It gives an error say that the calendar.apk has unexpected content...
I just receveid an OTA update, but the installation stuck because the system is rooted.
I found the update.zip file on my Handy, but it contains some directory (Meta-inf, patch and system) and a big file update.app that I believe contais all the update file.
Is it possible to extract the file from update.app and then create an update that can I launche from TWRP? And if so how could I do it?
Thanks
You can't.
flash back a stock recovery.
After ulocking bootloader and root the OTA didn't work with original recovery that's why I wanto to create an update that works with TWRP
did you try?
ItalianWolf said:

Yes I reinstalled the original recovery that you can find in t he root package and I completely unroot the phone using the unroot command in SuperSu.
Then I launch the update but after reboot it stuck at 11%, so I create the dload folder in my handy memory and copied there the content of update.zip and then forced the update. In this case, after reboot, it load until 99% that it reboot, but the installed version is still the 170 and not the 188.
Here worked, from post #393 to # 397 and #400
Stock recovery in root zip maybe too old.
Edit:
Ops perhaps it work on full update packages.

You need the Huawei Update Extractor Tool, and do the following:
Load the UPDATE.APP file inside the HUET
Extract boot.img, system.img, and cust.img, from UPDATE.APP inside the HUET
Flash the respective files via Fastboot
so if I am on Marshmallow beta, should I flash the recovery that comes with the marshmallow or the recovery of the B052 rom ?

If you have to, flash the B052 recovery... you can always flash the Marshmallow recovery if it doesn't let you update.
I only flashed boot.img, cust.img, and system.img, when I upgraded; didn't flash Marshmallow's recovery at all.
Don't think you can even get OTA updates on the Marshmallow beta anyway (even via a normal bootloader-locked device).
Sorry for my late answer but I was travelling only with a Mac and I couldn't use Huaweu Update extractor.
This are the file that you can find in UpdateApp 188:
00.SHA256rsa.img
01.crc.img
02.curver.img
03.verlist.img
04.efi.img
05.fastboot1.img

And also the following directory:

Which file should I install, I didn't find a system.img and there are two different recovery
Thanks
You should not install any OTA with TWRP...
Flash back the stock recovery, update, then flash the twrp again, it's way easier and more secure, than doing a flashable zip from an OTA update without knowing what to do with the file within.
The OTA updates usually doesn't contain the SYSTEM.IMG file you are looking for, it contains individual files and scripts to patch up the current system partition to work with the new update.
From the two recoveries you should use the RECOVERY.IMG (the one without the 2 in it).
But again, I do recommend to flash the original recovery(not the one in the update), do the update, and put twrp back.
Where can I find the original recovery from ALE-L21C432B170, so that I can flash the original recovery again?
TIA
I found the original recovery and flashed it then I did a complete unroot and tried again to do the OTA update but it stopped at 11%.
Is there a different way to update?

you need to relock the bootloader and install stock firmware on your phone then you can update OTA
No need to S-off if you can find the correct firmware for your phone

i have finally for my htc m9 plus the upgrade to marshmallow but only 6.0 no 6.0.1
thanks for the both sheering links, both are the same zip file , is in perfectly condition (the problem with crash unzipping file , problem was on windows zip , dint open it ) and it work perfect
with the new os 6.0 the battery is draining faster that is a minus on my handy
i wait a custom rom with better performance
