I installed the Xposed Module (Beta) on KitKat on the AT&T Moto X and now my phone won't boot, i've tried erasing cache to fastboot to no avail. i've tried booting into both recovery and normal powerup, i used SlapMyMoto to achieve root and would like to maintain root through fixing this. A possible idea i had was to flash the standard 4.4 recovery so i have access to ADB then push/pull the right files until it boots and Xposed is removed. has anyone ran into this?

Stock recovery won't help either for flashing that zip
You can restore it fairly easily for ADB you just need to get the factory image zip and pull out recovery.img and just fastboot flash it.
The problem is IDK if you can restore the hijacked recovery then. You could always once you get it booted titanium backup everything then reset it and reroot.

I think you may need to rsdlite back to stock, there's no way I know of to remove xposed other than with that flashable zip or through the app drawer

This, you can try flashing the system.img, you will lose root but you should then be able to boot and use helium to backup your data. It's a bit of work but at least you don't really lose your data.

1. Can I just get the 4.4.2 update via OTA with my current setup
2. Or do I have a to flash back to stock
Thank you much.

you need to flash the stock recovery and then run the OTA. after it installs flash your custom recovery back.

Thanks, if someone has an unlocked bootloader but is not rooted and they removed the bootloader unlocked message using the command:
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
and used a logo.bin file that has the original kitkat 4.4 logo in it, can they take the OTA without doing anything else?
Also, when you flash the stock recovery, you become unrooted and so then if you flash your custom recovery after the OTA, you reroot, right?
Are you supposed to wipe the davlik/cache or anything else like that before you take the OTA?

as for the logo i am not sure i think you should be ok .
as for when you flash the stock recovery yes you loose root but when you reflash the custom recovery if you still dont have root just reinstall SuperSU and you will be good to go,
and anytime i flash something i always wipe the cache/davlik

Hmm, I have a VZW DE, unlocked bootloader, flashed TWRP then SuperSU to get root, then flashed the stock recovery and still have root. I honestly can't remember if I re-rooted after flashing back to stock recovery, but I don't think that I did. Are you saying that flashing to stock recovery should have unrooted the phone? What does it mean if it didn't? I hope I'm remembering correctly.
I'd like to be able to get the OTA 4.4.2 update from VZW when available but I keep reading it's not possible with root. How do I remove root if reflashing the stock recovery didn't do it? I'm coming from a GNex which was much simpler so I want to make sure I'm prepared for the OTA when it arrives. Thanks!

OK,listen and listen closely, by far the best way to accept the ota is flash stock recovery and also flash your system.img, I don't care what other folks say, I've been here for 3 ota's , this will prevent any chances of having issues when accepting the ota. You may also flash Verizon's sbf firmware when available, the later is what I prefer

You can try to restore your data after you upgrade, there is no guarantee you won't have any issues but it won't be a huge problem, you'll just have to factory reset. It no different when you flash a custom ROM , if the developer uses a new base then often they request you to do a clean fresh install, otherwise you'll have issues

So far no official update available to me even after flashing the stock image from Moto. My biggest goal here is to find a way to backup and restore nandroids from the encrypted phone.
Flash and relock Moto X manually
No lie my a$$hole did pucker up though the whole process but... success woohoo!
I followed the instruction on Motorola website [https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/recovery-images] one thing I did not have is 'Motorola fastboot utility to flash (included in the Darwin/, Linux/ or Windows/ directory)' had to do some searching; came across [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1138092] Thanks for that.

version: 4.4 | system: 140.45.5.ghost_verizon.Verizon.en.US | build: 13.11.1Q2.X-69-3
Did this on my Mac, NOT on PC
Steps:
1. got recovery image
2. got Motorola fastboot utility from | http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1138092 moto-fastboot-osx.zip
3. used the fastboot from Darwin folder
4. follow steps from motorola website, but did not oem lock [$ fastboot oem lock]
5. last step reboot [$ fastboot reboot] a$$hole pucker up
But success, everything booted up properly even had the warning bootloader unlocked image
There was one point when it got to the Verizon boot image; it took abit longer a$$hole pucker up but finished booting.
Then phone went through the setup process (like new).... It's Miller time!
Come on 4.4.2 update via OTA

I just want to make sure that when you did this all it did was remove root and replace the bootloader, not any data or settings you had on your phone. That is the only thing that worries me before I decide to do the 4.4.2 update.

1) You don't need to do much. Revert the Entitlement hack you did, you need the one that came on the device, not a hacked one.
2) Flash the stock recovery back to your phone. You'll need the stock recovery to install the OTA. Just do it the same way you flashed TWRP to your phone but use the stock recovery.img file from the 4.4 .sbf ( http://sbf.droid-developers.org/download.php?device=0&file=5 )
You will NOT lose root flashing the stock recovery, you will NOT lose root taking the OTA.
After updating, use Xposed and the Moto Tether module for tethering instead of using a hacked version of the app.

If you have the Dev edition from VZW, it's simple to install the OTA.
This is what I did as I had root and xposed installed.
1. Download 4.4.2 file from XDA and cut and paste it from download folder to root of sdcard
2. Flash stock 4.4 recovery image via fastboot.
3. Flash 4.4 system image using mfastboot (must use mfastboot)
4. Boot into recovery
5. Apply update and selected the OTA zip.
6. Reboot
7. Power down and boot back into fastboot.
8. Flash TWRP, allow it to root, reboot.
9. Reinstall Xposed framework.
All my data and settings were still there. Even my xposed modules reactivated. No additional setup and my phone was exactly the same but had 4.4.2.
Only caveat is only do this if you've never installed other OS's and have only taken official OTAs from VZW. You need to be on the right bootloader. Don't brick your phone.

Hi, I have a Moto G 2nd Gen XT1064 running 4.4.4 KK (21.11.23). I rooted, unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP. I'm really confused about how I go about getting the 5.0.2 OTA update my phone says is available. I tried downloading it 3 times and after I clicked to install it the phone powers off and then puts me in a bootloop while still on KK. I wonder why that is? So then I install the backup I made in TWRP and it gets me out of the bootloop.
Anyway, is it still possible to use the phones built-in OTA update service somehow or do I need to flash an OTA update using recovery? I read through maybe a dozen threads here but I couldn't figure it out(and I always thought I was a tech savvy guy ) If anybody can help me in any way I'd be extremely grateful!
TWRP is the problem, not the unlocked bootloader. You need to use stock recovery to install an OTA, not a custom recovery
Download your firmware version, extract the recovery.img and install using fastboot

The same way you flashed TWRP.
Extract the .zip and put the recovery.img wherever you need it to do this:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Thank you so much ThisIsJason, I flashed the recovery.img for my firmware I downloaded off motofirmware.com then I let my phone download the OTA and when I clicked to install this time it worked. Thank you so much cuz I was really frustrated and I just couldn't for the life of me figure out what I needed to do so your suggestion is very much appreciated.
Tharmor, this is what I did:
I checked my phone to see what firmware I had, look in the settings menu, then in "about phone" and I think it'll list your firmware there. Then go to the website ThisIsJason mentioned, and download your phones firmware (mine was 21.85.23 for the XT1064 model). Then what I did was I unzipped the recovery.img file into my fastboot folder, then I put my phone in recovery mode and plugged in the usb cable and started the fastboot program. Then I copy and pasted
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
into the program, hit Enter and it flashed the recovery.img to my phone. Then I unplugged the usb and booted the phone back up normally, I went into settings menu, then "about phone" and then I think at the top of the next menu clicked an option about software updates. So I let the phone download the update and then clicked to install it and viola, it worked a charm.

Yes, rooted with xposed, also teamwin custom recovery i never backed up my recovery.bin so i can't go back too
That is why it fails. You have to uninstall xposed, unroot, and make sure that nothing is modified in the phone. It has to be 100% stock firmware, no modifications.
You will most likely need to flash system and recovery.
My recommendation, backup everything. Then flash the full 5.1 image:
http://www.filefactory.com/file/3uulcrk3rheh/VICTARA_TEFLA_XT1097_5.1_LPE23.32-14_cid12_CFC.xml.zip
Flash everything in this file, and erase cache and userdata. When done your phone will be on 5.1.

Which current version of android do u guys have?
I have moto g (2014) 2nd gen [XT-1068 model] and Android 5.0.2 on it. When I go to system updates it shows:
"New system software avaliable!"
New version: 22.56.3.en.DE
When I try to update it stops on halfway it after boot I get the message something like: Software update unsuccessful no changes were made."
Yes, my device is rooted via KingRoot and interesting is that when I try to find updates via USB cable and Motorola device manager. Device Manager says that there are no updates found. *WHAT?*
I managed to remove root permission (unroot) but the update always fail.

Don't use kingroot. It's a risky method and nobody really knows what it does (except searching for exploits). It may change things in your system that are not reversible.
To root the Moto G 2014 unlock bl, flash twrp and then flash latest superSU or use chainfires autoroot. These are the only solid methods.

I have the same issue. I have downloaded update and and let it install. when it reboot to install the update it reboot in to twrp and gives an error in the log; after I normally reboot through twrp the phone turn up and after a while it reboot in to twrp show to fix this?
if you use ota update(stock-rom) you need STOCK RECOVERY.
twrp doesn't work because its a custom recovery
Gesendet von meinem Moto G 2014
Same problem here. Moto G 2014 XT1068, rooted and no twrp. The update in recovery makes it till halfway, then it shows an error and Andy with a red exclamation mark and the phone reboots. After that, MOTOROLA OTA shows a message that something went wrong and no change has been made.
Got the update message, let it install without knowing it would brick with TWRP.
Now I got a automatic boot into TRWP, I choose reboot to system, it goes pass the lock screen and then.... automatically reboots into TRWP again. I'm in a loop, what do to? Would like some help please. Would a wipe as a last resort solve this problem?
update: I decided to restore a rom backup using TWRP, no more official updates for me unless there's another way of doing it correctly.
What a joke... 3 months to release a security update... Android 6 only next year... Update fails apparently because the phone is rooted... Thank god nexus 5x has come out, bye bye motorola
unroot your phone and make sure that you are using stock recovery.
I did exactly the same mistake today.
My solution was to flash SuperSU in recovery, delete cache and dalvik and reboot the phone. The phone reverted the update and everything looks fine for now. Now it prompts me again for the ota update.

You could use the SuperSU app and do a full unroot using the app, do the update and reflash SuperSU.

Will it be different if I try to install it via motorola update manager in PC?
How do I go back to stock recovery?

And this way you don't need to flash a stock recovery?!

No, that's only if you have rooted stock. If you're on a custom recovery you'll need to flash stock.
But I do have custom recovery I have only rooted it with KingRoot.
So if I want OTA update I have to do this:

EDIT: Bruh it's works as a charm. I've flashed stock rom and OTA update passed.
Thnx guys.
I received the notification OTA update for stagefright patch few days ago, I downloaded, but when the device reboots the installation fails. The system version is: 22.21.28.titan_retaildsds.retaildsdsall.en.03 reteu. The build number is LXB 22.46.28. I had a chat with a Motorola techcinian two days ago and he informed me that my phone is rooted and that’s is the reason that I cannot get the update.!!! This is really strange, because I NEVER try to unlock the bootloader. My phone is not rooted . The indication in fastboot mode shows 0.

Just do what i did. From previous post.
Question: OP, did you UNROOT the device and then flash the update via fastboot, or not?
And, one more thing: Did it wipe everything on your phone? I read the readme file and it says that it does not, but I find it strange to flash the rom from scrath and keep your files, apps etc untouched.
