First, you need Stock recovery on your phone. Since you have ATT, you likely have a locked bootloader so you do have it in place.
Next, inside the OTA is a manifest file. It contains a list of files and their check sums it expects to be on your phone. If the files are missing, or the check sum doesn't match, the OTA will fall. So you likely changed or deleted something on your phone which the OTA needs to be there.
Did you do any hacks? change or remove any APK files?
Oh, and lets not forget.. Since you have ATT and a locked bootloader (unless you paid for a code from the Chinese site), if you've rooted using RockMyMoto, SlapMyMoto or the like, and used MotoWpNoMo to disable write protection... after you get 4.4.2 OTA to install, you'll keep root but the effects of MotoWpNoMo will be undone, and you'll have Write Protection ENABLED... so anything you need to change in /system or the like wont survive Power Off/On (aka hard boot). So you won't be able to update SuperSU later, etc.. making Root pretty useless.

Just uninstall xposed. Take the ota. What I did was uninstall xposed put supersu survival mode on and updated with no problems. Still kept root but it does something with write protection.

Can't update to 902

What is the issue? Anyone else having this issue? I'm running stock ROM, rooted.
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk
Do you have all the original stock apps installed or anything frozen?
I do have some stock apps frozen. That'll screw it up?
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk
Unfreeze all your stock apps. You can not have stock apps frozen.
Yep, the update checks for that stuff and aborts if it finds apps missing. It also checks for changes to the build.prop file and some other things.
Interesting, this is why xda is the best, thanks

When my wife gets home I need to nano restore her stock version and take update to. 902 and hope the 4ever root works.
If it doesn't, there's already an exploit available that will let you root .902 -- Motofail. It says Droid 4 but it works for the Bionic, RAZR and Droid 3 as well.
Great thanks I am still new to the bionic. My wife did not want a custom rom so I just removed all the Verizon crap. But I did make a nano backup first. I should be good on root though used the 4ever root by dhacker29 I believe.
A small percentage of people with Forever Root still lost root in the .902 update for some reason ... no idea why. My friend at work was one of them, and I know he was Forever Rooted because I helped him do it. My Bionic kept root.

How did you go about that? Just do the OTA?
When I rooted I used dhacker root and 4ever root. Made back up and debloated my wife's phone. Today I restored her stock restore and just took the ota. After it was done I still have root. This is what I used
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1279825
I was having trouble getting it to take, as well. I had frozen "Music" and was having trouble getting it unfrozen. I did more than one thing at a time (not ideal for troubleshooting) so I'm not sure which fixed it.
Uninstalled Google Music, defrosted Music, froze Music, defrosted Music.
Used CWM to go into Advanced Restore and restored only a System from an older 901 backup
Now I'm on 902 and kept root (I had previously ForeverRooted).
Just another note - it took my phone about twice as long as normal to boot up after the update (it's encrypted, so it took about 4 maybe 5 minutes).
That is why personally I make a backup as soon as I am on a stock rooted rom. Then I delete instead of freezing. Then when I need to go back to stock say to flash the ota I then just restore it from recovery.

Same version my wife's phone was on. Use the link I posted by dhacker29. You can restore your phone back to stock, root, and then 4 ever root before you update. Pathsaver is also another option to get back on upgrade path.

This is obvious to advanced users but just so you guys have a heads up if you flash this you cannot use the current RSD lite package to go back to 4.2.2 stock before the update. There is a bootloader change that won't allow that SBF to flash anymore.

Does the bootloader change affect your ability to unlock it through their website at all? I'm assuming it shouldn't but just making sure.

Wouldn't think so, I just think even though you have an unlocked bootloader they don't allow a downgrade on it. Partition 2 will fail to flash and no go past that...
That being said....if you still have the ability to fastboot images you can probably just flash the old system.img and boot.img and get the phone to boot with the old firmware...that might not be correct though, probably should have a pro affirm that.

If bootloader is unlocked you can flash anyone you want any time... If not you're stuck (until you unlock). If it changes the bootloader then I'm sure the exploit which allowed root in the first place has been patched.
P.S. Why is this in development?

I believe it only changed kernel, firmware and camera software files.
I was wondering why it was in development as well. Should be in General, I think.

Flashed 4.4.2 sbf over 4.4.4

My bootloader is unlocked. My stock rom was messed up with system modifications and I tried to go back to pure stock. So i tried flashing 4.4.2 sbf file but i am already on 4.4.4. I didn't know that before that you cannot downgrade from 4.4.2 or higher.
The thing is I run the following commands
Code:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
i didn't run the subsequent commands
and tried rebooting phone immediately
the phone is working fine as such(system modifications are still present and i want to get rid of them).
I read somewhere that if you try to downgrade you may/will brick your device. And also of a guy who did something like this (downgraded from 4.4.2 to 4.2.2 and it was working fine until he took an OTA, that OTA bricked his device)
Are there any chances of me bricking my device?
Your system shows 4.4.2 now? If so, yes....taking an OTA will very likely brick you. And those ones are much harder, or impossible to fix.

You'll be eventually able to flash L manually too.
But as long as you are confident you've never downgraded your bootloader version...you'll be fine. If you have, or are unsure....best not to OTA.

In my settings build number remains unchanged. Do this confirm that my bootloader is not downgraded?
And even if its downgraded can I manually flash Android L sbf?

I'm in a similar situation as op. reason why i don't do what you say is: there is no official 4.4.4 image from Motorola. and i have no idea where rdslite came from nor its source code.
what i did is email Motorola support repeatedly for an official 4.4.3 and 4.4.4 images because they sold us developer devices and promised support. it's ridiculous that they only offer 4.4.2 to download for restore.

I have the developer edition.
I need to flash the original system image to re lock the boot loader.
but since my phone was sold to me on android 4.4.3 (or I accepted a OTA update from Motorola as soon as I received it) I cannot use the old android 4.4.2 system image you provide.
since Motorola is already even providing updates to 4.4.4 I demand at least the 4.4.3 to be made available. if not the 4.4.4

What should my version/build number be?

I have a 2014 moto x pure (not rooted) running 5.1. The version number is 23.1.28 and build LPE23.28. I saw a thread elsewhere with a posted stagefright patch, but the version number in the prereq's does not match mine. I didn't get lollipop OTA, I just downloaded it from another thread sometime around when the soaktest went out (sometime in the spring?).
Anyways, I'm wondering why my version number does not match, and also wondering if, by downloading the last update and installing it myself, I have lost the ability to recieve OTA's Thanks anyone who might have advice.
This is my Xt1095 with the latest ota

I think I figured out what to do. After snooping around a bit, I think I have to unlock my bootloader, downgrade to 5.0, and reup to the latest build of 5.1. Does that sound about right?

Ah now I understand, you had a typo when you first posted your version number. Now that is not what you need to do. My suggestion is to unlock your bootloader, but DO NOT downgrade. Just download the 5.1 image from here: http://www.filefactory.com/file/17go3dvt60b/VICTARA_TMO_XT1095_5.1_LPE23.32-21.3_cid9_CFC.xml.zip then flash it to upgrade your system to the correct version.
Downgrading then taking OTAs can cause bricks, so I do not recommend that you downgrade.
From your experience, can I flash the newer lollipop version w/o unlocking bootloader?
Sent from my XT1095 using XDA Free mobile app
I know you can flash the same version... and that downgrade does not work.
But I have no clue if upgrade works while the bootloader is locked. It won't hurt to try, if it does not let you there is no damage done. Let me know if it lets you with a locked bootloader for future reference.

So JUST TO MAKE SURE, I can upgrade from lollipop version 23.1.28 to version 23.32-21.3 without downgrading? Just want to be 100% because I'm not very experienced at this. I will try it with the locked BL first and let you know how it goes, of course.

Those posts are old, read the dates. Those posts were made BEFORE the full firmware file was available. The directions have changed since those posts. The way I am instructing now is the safest and less likely to brick your phone.

Nexus 6 stuck in 7.0 but getting montly patches

My N6 is still waiting 7.1.1 OTA, surprisingly, security patches come on schedule, but almost three months after release, OTA is not coming. Yes, I know I can sideload it, but one of the reasons I decided not to root it was not losing the ability of OTA updates.... any hint?
Thanks.

You can flash the stock rom and you will receive OTA . Unlocking bootloader dosen't mean root.
You WILL receive OTA updates just do as follows
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Flash latest fastboot images
3. Lock bootloader - optional.
Make sure you don't keep TWRP recovery. It isn't that good for installing OTA packages via system update.
Please follow the guides if you don't know how to do them. Download the latest one named 7.1.1
Press thanks if i helped

@Pocket_rocket Just a warning though... Unlocking your bootloader will wipe your device.
Use the full OTA image instead. I believe there's no need for an unlocked bootloader then.
https://developers.google.com/android/ota
Edit: a word of caution... If you decide to sideload the OTA, it's not a bad idea to keep your bootloader unlocked. If anything goes wrong along the way, you can then fix it.
And about the update issue. Are you on AT&T? They haven't approved 7.1.1 yet...
Edit 2 (I just woke up, gimme a break ): If you use Android Pay or anything else dependent on SafetyNet, you can't keep your bootloader unlocked (without further tinkering) since that triggers SN.

Hi Didgeridoohan, Mine is now NBD92D (AT&T version and update thru OTA) but I don't see any AT&T logo on the back and my city(HK) does not have any AT&T service. Do you have any idea on this(Actually my Nexus 6 is from Australia).
In addition, if I keep sideload the OTA image N6F26U will cause any problem(except the Android Pay)? As you mention that Google does not approve any 7.1.1 AT&T version(Just tried to sideload N6F26U, it said can't install over a newer version).
Thanks so much in advance.

Yes, but I am too lazy to reconfigure my phone after wipe. Tons of apps, accounts, tweaks etc.

And about the update issue. Are you on AT&T? They haven't approved 7.1.1 yet...

No. I'm on Vodafone (Spain) but I purchased this phone right on Amazon, so no pesky carrier should be acting as a man in the middle, I guess...
I mean, the phone runs decently well, but, given the fact that 7.1.1 will be the last update for this model, I want it. I wonder if is just a matter of patience or there is some other issue that is preventing my phone to get the OTA.
Thanks.
I have the same issue, m on NBD92D, which seems to ATT only, but there's no AT&T in India. I tried sideloading N6F26U, but it didn't work. Any idea how I can get 7.1, apart from waiting?
