On my Moto Maxx, I've been stuck on the Brazilian LXG22.33-12.7 Update and I haven't been able to update to any of other rooms posted. I believe this build is a soak test. How would I got about updating my device, preferably without wiping my data(I'm familiar with adb but I need to know which update I should sideload)? Please help this update is soooooooooooooooooooooooo buggy.
Thank you so much in advance!!!
There should be an update to the soak file that will get you to the current rev, finding it could be tough though.
You might be better off flashing the full 5.0.2 image and just not wiping data. At that point there would just be a small update which is rolling out right now which you would get automatically.
You can download the full Brazil 5.0.2 image here:
http://www.filefactory.com/file/75n...22.33-12.13_cid12_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
It can be flashed with RSDlite but you'll need to edit the XML file before hand to remove the entry where it deletes userdata. Or it can be flashed manually with mfastboot.
I might have the update to the soak file which would be the easiest, I will look for it when I get a chance this evening or tomorrow.

Just did the fastboot method and it works! Thank you! I tried adb sideloading the new update, however and it stops at 72% and fails with a status 7. Any ideas on why?
That I am not sure of. I installed the update using the recovery menu and it installed just fine. Maybe give that a shot, no adb required.
Also when thanking people on XDA it's great if you can click the "thanks" button under the post.

Actually I figured it out, turns out I wasn't flashing ALL of the files through fastboot haha. Now up and running fine.
I am in the same boat stuck on Brazilian LXG22.33-12.7 . would mind explaining how you updated to newest version. thanks
I got it. thanks. I flash with fastboot on a mac and it's working great. thanks

Thanks to an awesome anonymous source, we now have the over-the-air update 1.5.7 in the form of an SBF file for flashing in RSD Lite!

I wish it was this easy to get a Bell SBF
Nice! Thank you and the anonymous source
FYI This update was recalled by Motorola
https://supportforums.motorola.com/thread/47993?tstart=0
thank you ....nice shot here
edit:
Unfortunately for rooted users, Motorola’s 1.5.7 update has patched the “psneuter” hole that previously allowed for Superuser root access. Overall, looks like a fairly minor update from Motorola for Atrix users. No word yet on a Bell version of the update, but I’m sure an OTA for the Bell Atrix can’t be too far behind.

site answered my question.. amazing what you can find from READING
anyone knows why it got recalled?
It wasn't recalled.. just updated 1minute ago
This phone and its issues are getting to be a little much...
flashed the SBF, halfway through i forgot since it cannot be rooted right now i can't restore all the apps using titanium. lol....what a pain manually doing it. So far so good, nothing really to report i guess. The only complaint i had before was when entering the car dock, if i wanted to open an app i would have to swipe the fingerprint reader in order to run anything. I hope this is fixed in the "misc car dock fixes" part. I'll find out later when i get in my truck.
EDIT: Also, teh touchscreen seems WAY too sensitive now. I keep inadvertently tapping things accidentally.
i tried flashing straight from gingerblur 7.2 and it failed. the process seemed to be working but at the end it failed. do i need to flash back to stock sbf first, then to this one?
Can't flash 1.5.7... currently with an aRooted 1.2.6...
Half way through the OTA update, it shows the Android logo with an exclamation mark...
Any ideas?

Just got my first Motorola with this phone, but think I borked it by messing with the radio bands. How does one flash these .xml or .sbf files to restore to original stock?
failed flashing process..unknown fastboot comand
I'm grabbing this for my friend, he can't get the update because he needs Wi-Fi and the phone won't connect to our University's Wi-Fi network. This won't break OTA for him though will it?
It's just as same as if you have applied OTA.

If you got 4.0.3 we need a copy of your OS before you upgrade. 4.0.3 has vulnerabilities that we need to get root. Sorry I don't know the procedure, but I am sure some dev will be more than willing to tell you.

Just saw this and need to let you know not to do any soft of fastboot or updating without backing up your files. The worry is you flash a retail bootloader and possibly cannot go back if you use these.

yeah, that's why i'm holding out... battery life sucks on the 4.0.3. it barely gets me 8-9 hours with moderate use. i've noticed there are huge drops in the battery level every now and then. i guess i'll just deal with it until we get the root thing sorted out.
is there a way to just mount the system.img.ext4? i've tried ext2explore and i've tried to mount it with Linux Reader. thanks

I'm currently rooted and am running only Xposed Mods with a few root apps. How can I unroot my phone and get the stock recovery back onto my Moto X so that I can take OTA's again without wiping all of my data? What files do I need to download/flash and how do I do it? I've searched around, but it just got me even more confused.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that flashing the stock system will remove all the changes you've made with root/xposed modules, and flashing the stock recovery should essentially get rid of root (I think).
I don't know precisely where to get all the files, but if you find them around, you can push them using ADB.
If you're like me and are okay with losing everything on the phone, go ahead and use RSDLite (it requires ADB). It's easy-ish to use, and there's even a video tutorial that covers everything after installation of all the files.
You need to use fastboot to push system.img and recovery.img from the version of the OS you're currently running. See here for a list of OS images:

You need to install the Android SDK and the platform tools, then boot your phone into fastboot mode. You need to run a command line to flash the IMGs. It's explained in the links.

I was under the impression that we cannot do a factory reset or we won't get the soak test OTA pushed to our phones. That's what the soak test post said atleast. Something along the lines of "DO NOT FACTORY RESET or you will not receive the OTA"... don't want to quote it directly since I'm under an NDA, but it was something like that. Did I misunderstand? If I use the Moto X toolkit or RSDLite to revert back to stock is that different than a factory reset?

I've got the Android SDK install and ADB is setup. I'm pretty familiar with ADB. I moved the motorola fastboot.exe into platform-tools and I know how to put the phone into fastboot mode. What I don't understand is what I need to do once I've got the system.img file and the recovery.img file. I'm still reading all of the links so I might not have gotten to the part where it explains what to do, so forgive me for that.

Right from my third link:
Next, you need to put the phone into "fastboot mode" as described above, also make sure usb debugging is enabled in the developer menu settings. Then download the FW for your phone found (follow what i said in regards to the other persons post below), then unzip that, put the system and recovery image in the same directory that your fastboot and adb is in, then run these commands from the cmd prompt
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
then your done, you can type
fastboot reboot

Yep, just got to that part lol. Having some trouble downloading the VZW file. My current download just stopped with a network error and the website that is hosting the files keeps saying service unavailable and to contact the website administrator. Weird. I'm blaming it on my college's ****ty wireless network.
Edit: Yup, for some reason the wifi at the school decided it need me to input my credentials to re-login for the 6th time today to verify who I am and allow me internet access.
Edit 2: The things I'd do to have a stable connection... Once again, the download failed halfway through because the damn connection at this college sucks. This is infuriating.

Is there anyway you (or someone else) could upload the VZW OTA update file to Google Drive or Dropbox for me? This download is going way to slow to the point where I can't even finish it before my connection craps out. Or can you (or someone else) just upload the system.img and recovery.img files for me?

so you have XT925 and this link helped you fix the install, and you're now on the official KK? does LTE and GSM work for you?
I need the stock recovery image (from 23.16.3.victara_retca.retca.en.CA) so I can flash the 6.0 update since it won't work with TWRP.
Any help? Google isn't providing me with much.
Does it have to be from the Canadian variant (not sure if the recovery images are different between variants)?
Tried looking here for the correct zip, which should contain the recovery image?

I have no clue. I doubt it would have to be the retCA version. I'm sure everything besides radio and system will be the same.

Worked perfectly.
My process
- Flash stock 5.1 using fastboot (Steps can be found on Motorola's site or somewhere on XDA)
- Install Marshmallow OTA
- Flash cracked boot.img for Marshmallow. This step is needed in order for TWRP to stick and for you to root without getting stuck on the warning screen. (I'll find the link for you if you can't. It's somewhere on XDA.)
- Flash TWRP
- Create backup so I don't have to go through this process next time haha

Something odd has happened since upgrading to 6.0.
'adb devices' still sees my phone, but 'fastboot devices' no longer sees anything, and making a desktop back-up with adb now creates a file containing 0 bytes.
Everything else seems fine. Are there some new permissions I need to give before this will work?
Thanks again.
Edit: I managed to get fastboot working, however now I've run into a new problem.
To confirm, when you say flash the cracked boot.img for Marshmallow, I should execute 'fastboot flash boot boot.img' for the cracked boot.img?
I'm getting the error: mismatched partition size (boot)
I can still enter TWRP with fastboot, but it's not permanent without the cracked boot.img
Am I missing a step?
Edit #2: Finally got TWRP to stick another way and have root now. Thanks for everything!
