There is some step-by-step tutorial about how to replace TWRP with stock recovery to get OTA ? (XT1092)
You'll just need to locate a stock XT1092 recovery, flash using "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" and initiate the update.
Pretty sure the recovery version has to match the OS version (e.g. 5.1 OS + 5.1 recovery = OK, 5.1 OS with 4.4.4 recovery = NOT OK).

Can someone please help with this ?
I'm want to flash the stock recovery in order to receive the 4.2.2 OTA update (currently I have the stock 4.1.2 + root + TWRP + S-OFF)
Can someone guide me please, what stock recovery do I need to flash and where should I grab it from ?
I've found only this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2158763
Not sure if is the right recovery but the download link from there is broken
Any idea if I need to be S-OFF or ON in order to receive the OTA ?
That's old thread. Run either a ruu or Mike's stock. Be sure u have stock recovery as well.

where can I have the stock recovery ? (I can't find it)
- Ok after a lot of digging around I've found a stockrecovery.img file , so I've flashed that like this: fastboot flash recovery stockrecovery.img
- the spooky part after doing this was that I was unable to enter into recovery anymore , the screen alway remained in Entering Recovery and that was it ... maybe someone explain why ?
- then I've locked the bootloader like this: fastboot oem lock
- then I've installed a RUU for Europe (also found out here after diggin around) which actually downgraded my firmware to an older version
- after downgrade I've received an OTA update to a newer firmware - did that
- then after I've received the 4.2.2 OTA update , finaly
- then I've performed a bootloader unlock
- then I've flashed a TWRP recovery image in order to root the device
Now here comes the issue, after flashing the TWRP recovery image, while entering into the TWRP recovery I'm not able to click on any menu , is like the touch screen does not take any input so I'm unable to install the SU binaries
Has anyone encountered this issue ?
How did you root your stock 4.2.2 device ?
Reflashed the CWM recovery (instead of TWRP) as somebody recommend it and it worked - now I have root, too.

Hi there,
i have the exact same problem, the screen wont register touches. How do i reflash CMW? im a noob
You are going to flash it in the same manner you did with the TWRP.
You put your phone into fastboot then issue a command like :
fastboot flash recovery cwm_image_name
You should search for a cwm recovery image file.
And you need to have the bootloader unlocked
After update to 4.2.2 TWRP wont recocnize touch due to the driver update.
Here is a modified version of TWRP where touch work with 4.2.2 OTA
Download and rename it to howdoyouwant.img then
fastboot flash recovery howdoyouwant.img
fastboot erase cache

You can't flash the ota while using custom recovery and being rooted, you need the stock recovery and your system needs to be 100% stock. You also can't flash it with twrp and cwm

I just need to reflash the stock recovery, and then apply OTA and then flash the twrp again?
search the rom of your country and version (in sbf) download it, then open it search for recovery.img, go to fastboot, and fla**** with adb commands:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Hello guys,
i'm on the latest firmware for our device with hboot 1.56 which prevents me from temporary booting into custom recovery.
I want to root the device but still be able to take OTA updates. How can i root via ADB or does someone have the stock recovery img file so i can flash it back ?
Thanks.
Hello i have a Motorola XT1068 unlocked, rooted etc. 4.4.4. I decided to upgrade it to 5 OTA, so I unrooted it and installed the official android 5 rom. Now it's stuck on bootloop. What do I do?
Did you install a custom recovery? You have to be on stock recovery to upgrade.
Also systemchanges (deleted/frozen systemapps,adaway host) have to be reverted. Install full stock rom again,there is a tool by @reefuge (look in his signature) to do so and then try to update again.

If I restore to stock do I erase custom recovery as well?
Check this out,you can install 5.0.2 directly or 4.4.4:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/official-stock-firmware-5-0-2-lxb22-46-t3019612
From the description:
You will recieve all future OTA updates.
So everything will be stock again incl. recovery.
In other cases:You can extract the stock recovery.img from the original firmware and flash it, it will overwrite the custom recovery.
Is there a guide to installing a custom recovery and ROM to the XT1096 now after the official bootloader unlock? I just did it and wanna play around with new ROMs now.
Before you do anything with your phone, download and keep the stock firmware for it, in case something goes wrong, or you lose signal:

I guess there's only stock 5.1 for the XT1096 (Verizon?).
You will also need ADB and Fastboot to flash custom recovery or stock firmware.
The Moto X 2014 is called Victara, this is the TWRP custom recovery for it:
https://dl.twrp.me/victara/
You flash it in Bootloader Mode, using Fastboot, like this:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.0-0-victara.img
(This is just an example, you might want to flash a different version, or recovery)
Then you boot into recovery immediately after flashing it, so it doesn't get overwritten by the stock firmware.
Then you can copy the ROM and Gapps zip files to the phone, and flash them by tapping Install in TWRP.
