That is really hard
Thanks for the help!

If you are gonna use OTA update, your system must be unmodified : not rooted, not changing any system file (including boot logo), and using stock recovery.

Will this work with the soak? Also doesn't really address the issue since the soak will require all the native apps and such to be present.

IF all you care about is the new OTA, and you DONT wish to keep root access, which the new OTA prevents then just Flash the stock firmware file with RSD LITE per the thread. If you however want to RETAIN root, and be on the new OTA update, then follow that link, which will allow the OTA to be applied to your phone, while you keep root access.
Yes but does this apply to soak....

Whats the difference? Is the soak test still not an OTA just pushed out to a select few?
Well don't you need to have all the stock apps intact?

Stock Firmware For Indian XT1092

I've found some stock firmware images of XT1092 and there are both 4.4.4 and 5.0 images... But I'm little bit confused about which one is correct for Indian XT1092... Can anyone confirm which one is correct ??
The one with "EU" in between the characters, is ours.
The second last one.

I'm on 5.1 right now... Will it be a problem if I flash 5.0 ? By flashing 4.4.4 will it brick ??
DO NOT flash 4.4.4, because it has the older bootloader. Once you receive an OTA, and you update, you'll get a permanent brick. I don't know about 5.0 either, because I'm running on 5.1 too. Just check some forum posts if the bootloader in 5.1 is the same as 5.0. It could be, or it couldn't be. I am not a very advanced user.

What he means is, if you downgrade, do not use an OTA ever. It can brick your phone.
The only safe way to upgrade after a downgrade is to flash a full firmware image.

None, when you try, it does not let you downgrade those. And since they can't be downgraded that is what causes an OTA to fail. But trying to flash those does no harm since it won't let you.

[ROM][STOCK][LP 5.1]XT1095 flashable stock rom

I have created a stock rom of 5.1 lollipop that you can flash via custom recovery. The only modifications that I have made are to remove the motrola OTA service, that way there will be no bricks from people taking an OTA and it won't bother anyone about OTA update messages. The recovery flasher was removed to prevent it from overwriting the custom recovery.
I have uploaded a new version which has the stagefright patch(23.16.6). The old version is also still available as well.
Installation:
1) If you are coming from another rom, or a different version of android you must do a factory reset.
2) Install the zip file through TWRP/CWM/etc.
3) Enjoy.
Download 5.1 23.16.6

Just wanted to say awesome! Thanks and am running right now with absolutely no issues!!! Noticed it's funny little differences in the ROM, from the Brazilian version ex. Status bar, the H was huge in the Brazilian version, very small for the T-Mobile unlocked xt1095!
So I'm running rooted stock 5.0, I can just flash this and run with it?
Yes. Just remember that my rom only flashes the kernel and the systrm. Nothing else gets upgraded. So your modem, partions, and bootloader will still be the 5.0 ones.

It should work. It only flashes the kernel and system, so your radio stays the same which means you should have signal.

I'm coming from an5.1.1 AOSP rom. I did a factory reset then installed the zip. Everyone installed perfectly but when I try to set up my device it says that this device has been reset and I need to verify my Google account. Once I do this it has me accept the Motorola terms and then it asks me to verify my Google account again. I cannot advance from this step. Any thoughts?

Hi everyone. I have an xt1058 att en us, stock 4.4.2, locked BL. I'm not going to pay sunshine for this old phone. It's hard for me to pay that. I've noticed that Lollipop OTA isn't available any more. Is there any way to upgrade to LL, as I've said, with locked BL? Thanks a lot.

Almost no risk using RSD Lite,
As long as it's not a downgrade.

Ok. That's a lot of help for these days. I'll tell you what I'm gonna do. I'll be on kitkat until it turns into complete obsolete (or change my phone). Some apps I use aren't available on KK any more. And I'll have this OTA RSD lite upgrade as a backup weapon to get my xt1058 extended life! Of course sunshine is still there, but I think it's a little late for it. Thanks a lot buddy.
EDIT: Hey wait. Why can I install stock 5.1 with locked BL and no other rom? May I try some debloated stock/custom rom? I found a stock xt1058 debloated version here

Yes sir. Update system button says "you are up to date". The Motorola Update app is upgraded.
OK. TBH your better off on KK. 5.1 heats the phone up like no tomorrow and battery life is atrocious. I rolled back to KK from 5.1.
Have you unlocked your bootloader?

No, I'm on stock 4.4.2 KK xt1058 att en us locked BL. I cannot unlock it unless paying sunshine. If I take RSDlite OTA 5.1 there's no way back to KK for me.
Ok I guess your stuck then but that is a blessing in disguise as 5.1 is dog muck.
Use web apps for apps that aren't compatible.
