April Security Update (XT1541) - Moto G 2015 General

Did Motorola just remember about our phone's existence or am I the only one that just got this update?

I think you're the only one.. because it is still not available in India..

My device was French, if that helps to know which devices got it.

Got it some days ago, French too.

Looks like only 1 gb XT1541 got update. My 2 gb XT1541 is still on January 2017.

Yeh, forgot to mention I have the 1GB variant.

I'm from Brazil and just got the notification on my XT1556 (Moto G Turbo Edition).

It's surprising to see that moto is still supporting this device with security updates!
Why couldn't they just release a Nougat update. ?

glad to see that lenovo still cares about moto g3 and still pushing updates after 2 years of release. i think security updates are more important than a firmware upgrade cause motorola optimized their stock mm rom greatly!

I've got it this morning on my XT1550, but since my phone is rooted, do i have to unroot before i update?

I have installed stock recovery and unrooted my phone. But what if i had flashed mods like viper4android or had uninstalled system apps before? Will these interfere with the update process?

Stock recovery is responsible to flash update (it will check boot.img, bootloader, radio) with every thing being ok it will flash it, what happens after can't be predicted (my guess it will fine)

Don't know how to unroot now. The unroot option from SuperSu doesn't work.

yes if you are on magisk then you need to uninstall magisk and if you are on supersu then you need a clean install of system and boot partition.

No, you need to return to pure stock... if your system partition has been modified, the update will likely fail.
Either restore your pre-root backup with recovery, or flash the latest stock images with fastboot and take all OTA's, then reroot and apply mods.
Honestly, it is a minor security update.... nothing to get concerned over, just disable the notification and go on with your life.

This morning on my XT1541 (French model) pop up notification.
I'm in Italy.
Now is update to April security patch.

Rooting has no effect on receiving the notification of the update, just applying it.

Hello, after an unsuccessful root attempt I can not update my software anymore. With unlocked bootloader and Android version installed 6.0.1 March 1, 2016. The reason I do not get an update is an unlocked bootloader? I check for a new version of the software but it is up to date ... Please help

Systemless root XT1572 Security update

Hi,
Yesterday I went back to factory image of MM for XT1572 EU, then I flashed Beta-Super-SU 2.62 for systemless root.
This morning I have a message on phone about security update publish the 9 February..
What I have to do to apply it ?
I was thinking, go into Super-Su, then stick "fully unroot" ( I wonder if after I have to flash back the normal boot image and recovery ? since Super-Su had patched the boot for root..)
Any advices ?
Thanks

I'll go for a secure way, and IMHO I'll go stock (you can flash stock w/o wiping user data) and after that, apply the OTA.
I think you have to reflash boot and stock recovery.

Just go to supersu and stick unroot completly.
During the install of supersu, the original boot.img is backup. When uroot the supersu restore the boot.img and the recovery.
Then I update succefully the system I will put again TWRP when I back at home.

Moto G 1st Gen: Actually Got a Security Update

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?

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.

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.

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

OxygenOS 2.2.3 OTA for OnePlus X

Hi all,
OnePlus started the incremental roll-out of OxygenOS 2.2.3 for the OnePlus X.
This is a prerequisite for the coming Marshmallow of OnePlus X.
Official Link: http://downloads.oneplus.net/oneplus-x/oneplus_x_oxygenos_2.2.3/
Here are some highlights:
Implemented September Android security patches
Added necessary dependencies for Marshmallow upgrade
As always, this OTA will be incremental.
Weird issues:
This OTA will prevent you from rooting your phone through King root. So you can't root after the update.
Note:
There is no Quadrooter patch yet. But after Marshmallow update we may get it.
Hope you enjoy!
Screenie: Nothing new Just don't look at it.

Today OnePlus released 3.1.2 accidentally and blocked it. Maybe a bug is stopping them.
Here's the link: http://webcache.googleusercontent.c...s_x_oxygenos_3.1.2/+&cd=3&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=in

Can't find a zip actually. But update's available right now in oos 2.2.2 and it's just a 17 MB of size. Just flash OOS 2.2.2 and check for update.
Should I say this???? You all know this dudes.
Now that you've mentioned the size of the OTA, everything's cool.

Oh man! OnePlus is filling my notification area with that update. Yes I downgraded to OOS 2.2.2
I don't know why you are not getting the update.
Anyways the truth is nothing so new in this you better flash custom roms that's a cool thing.
Hi there!
Do I have to downgrade from the community 3.1.1 to 2.2.2 in order to update to 2.2.3 and other upcoming verisons ?
I'm using 3.1.1 since it came out and it's awesome...

Really dude! Try to factory reset (you have to your golden data) and everything should be fine. And checkout there's a weird marshmallow update blocked by OnePlus.

Finally got the real 7.1.1. For the z play droid!

As of 3:45 a.m. this morning I couldn't believe what I was seeing thanks Verizon it's about time still messing around with it (7.1.1.) I'll let you know how it goes like it so far oh yeah I'm on the east coast S.C. THANKS AGAIN AND GOD BLESS EVERYONE!!!
Downloading right now.
Mike
I'm in the United States and I got 7.1.1 last night ?
got it today also
Yep, it's finally here, downloading.
Update 7.1.1 is here on RETEU
Just got the 7.1.1 OTA for the Moto Z Play on RETEU
Will keep you posted as soon as installed and tested
Just downloading 7.1.1. in Germany
I'm doing the 7.1.1 update in France
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

Heh, I have noticed that. I think I'll just wait for November patch, then use AIO Tool.
A: Yes, you'll recieve official OTAs as long as you have stock recovery installed. But there are chances that after rooting if you install any OTA then it might brick your mobile.

Does it mean, that there is a chance, that after installing OTA update (with root), my phone may got bricked/bootloped/etc.?
