it wont run on a nexus 6 and you will probably end up bricking your device if it actually flashes.
It says its for nexus 6 ?

Download the entire SBF for your carrier/version here:
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=0
Unzip it. You will need to have the android SDK and "mfastboot" binary. Place recovery.img in the same folder as mfastboot, then:
mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Now you should have stock recovery back.
Good Luck

Moto sure made havok with our recoveries, they could have made them with all the same md5 but they are unique. I bet any one would function but not for the reason we need to use each original one for.
See... I had unlocked bootloader n installed twrp...I wanted to return back to stock recovery so I Googled it n got a link for stock recovery. But when I flashed it n tried to boot into recovery.. It did not happen... can u suggest what should I do??

thank you, I have found the solution, I download the supersu.zip file in here:
http://www.igadgetsworld.com/moto-x...unning-on-android-4-4-4-step-by-step-process/
my situation is I have already unlock bootloader , I only need to use fastboot flash the recovery and use get into the recovery and install the zip file supersu.zip .
If you were able to find this forum, you should be able to find a custom recovery for your phone.
So few month back i root my moto x 2013 it messed up and i put back original rom
now i receive ota update today and it downloaded but when i try to install it my phone restart and boot loader menu comes up
it show whether to install untrusted zip file i choose yes and phone restart and get back to same thing if i choose no then also same
so is there way to lock my bootloader so it dont show up when installing official update
so how do i install that new update
please tell me step by step i am noob in this
How did you root? And how did you return to stock?
I ask because its important that you also have STOCK Recovery on your phone. Stock recovery wont prompt you about "untrusted zip" for an OTA like you are describing which makes me think you still have a 3rd party recovery on there.

I have already typed exactly what you need in those posts.. Post #2 of that thread (requirement section) does explain where to get Android SDK/Platform tools, Moto Fastboot, Moto drivers, everything you need. Option 6 tells you how to flash just recovery. And those links work. (I just tried them again to make sure).
If you get stuck at a step, please quote what you are trying to do (the exact step you are executing), and what you see happen...
I've spent the time typing it out, because I don't have the time to sit and spoon feed someone.

Is it listed as a requirement? Would I put you through that extra work if I didn't have to?
Yes, its required. components of the Android SDK's Platform tools ARE NEEDED for mfastboot to work.
And before you ask... Yes, I know there are "min adb packages" out there.. which don't contain full platform tools, the android sdk, etc... And they might work, but they are only as new/current as when they were packed, and often times you need the updated version to work properly, and these mini-adb packages are missing the SDK updater, so that is why I suggest following that process to install the entire thing (and have you only select the needed parts)... then you can update later as needed.
So a while ago I rooted my phone after doing a lot of research (because I have no idea about this topic) and it was all good (it was only to use some apps, no ROM or anything)..
Today I wanted to install Android M, I also searched a lot and ended up using the same thread ([HOW-TO] The Nexus 6 All-In-One Beginner's Guide) and used step 5A and 5B.
When I reached the point of choosing the .zip file to install (on TWRP) it said: "This operation may install incompatible software and render your device unusable", and when I tried to flash it said "Failed" in red.
Now when I try to reboot to system it says "No OS installed" and if I try I only see the white Google logo with the open lock at the bottom of the screen.
I can only use the recovery mode and Bootloader mode.
Any help is really appreciated...
Try to use the software from Android developers
try to use the factory image from Google developers just search for android factory image
in case all steps fail try to psuh the files using fastboot flash (partition) (partintion).img

You don't use twrp to flash the stock images from Google ....twrp is used for flashing ROMs and making backups etc ....

That´s what I was going to ask about just now.
I tried flashing a ROM and it worked fine, tried flashing M stock image but it did not work.
So what should I do/use to flash the stock images from Google?

You use fastboot from a computer to flash stock images. Custom recoveries are used for flashing custom rom zips.
Go.to nexus 6 general > sticky roll-up thread.

These are twrp flashable zips http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/development/fxz-nexus-6-recovery-flashable-fastboot-t3066052 otherwise you will need to have adb/fastboot working on your computer and use fastboot to flash images

True, but if you're setting things up properly for the first time then you're installing both fastboot and adb.
Why not just follow what Google says? https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images?hl=en

Hi,
I managed to unlock the Bootloader on my Moto G 2nd dual sim. Now I'm looking for a step to step how to to root my phone.
There are so many (confusing) how to's out there
I'm using Marshmallow.
Took me a while to find instructions for non Windows user to unlock bootloader ...so a step by step Linux how to would be appreciated.
thanks in advance,
Best, Martin

As long as you have your adb and fastboot tools installed on your computer, as well as the drivers you need for the moto g2, the steps are the same for both windows and Linux. To root:
1. Flash twrp version 3.0.0.0
Download the file, place in your fastboot folder, and then open a command window in that folder. Type : fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
2. Using TWRP, install SuperSU v2.62 only.
3. (Optional)Boot your rom up and update SuperSU to version 2.65 using the play store.
That's all you need to get root access.

1. You do not need a modified boot image, SuperSU will modify the boot image for you.
2. I answered your question because I've done the above hundreds of times before.
3. I do realise that I'm replying many months later than when you posted, but XDA only informed me of your reply just now.
