Yesterday I recieved my phone and I unlocked the bootloader as well as rooted using CF. Today I tried to flash the OTA LRX21O (I'm on LNX07M) in TWRP but I'm getting the error "Package expects build fingerprint of google/shamu/shamu:5.0/LNX07M/1543455: user/release-keys or google/shamu/shamu : 5.0/LRX210/1570415 : user/release-keys; this device has Android/aosp_shamu/shamu:5.0LRX21M/dees_troy11191312:userdebug/test-keys"
What the heck does this mean? I also tried flashing back to stock recovery but it just ended up with an android image with "error" below it. I'm assuming it ran into the same problem. Do I need to wipe and start all over??

You can't install the OTA if you rooted. You'll probably need to just install the factory images via fastboot.

I thought you could always just flash them manually? When did this change? No point in rooting if I'm going to stay stock, it seems.

5.0 essentially makes it break OTA when you root/modify anything. This has been known for a bit now (which is why I downloaded the update before I did any rooting/unlocking on my device).

not really - you can just flash the "old" stock system image file and then install the update (or just flash the "new" system file)

It should be the same as the "back to stock" process
Download new (or old) factory images
Unzip and extract the IMG files
Take nandroid backup on phone
Reboot to recovery
Connect to PC (assuming drivers are installed)
Use fastboot to flash the necessary images
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot erase cache
Edit - flash the cache.img instead of just erasing cache
I had trouble flashing the factory image initially. I kept getting an error so I used this method and it worked perfectly. Hope it helps. http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/how-fix-er...roid-5-0-factory-images-nexus-devices-1474865
So i am root and have done a bit of work on my Nexus 6 (changing system sounds, setting it up and a few other things) If i want to install LRX21O, what is the step by step to do that and after i install it if i do a Nandroid Backup, can i restore the backup on LRX21O? I am currently on LNX07M.
I am curious as well. Also do you happen to have a link to the file to just update.?
EDIT... Found it. Will flash when home

You don't reboot into recovery if you are using fas boot. You boot into boot loader at least that's how I've done it on every Nexus that I've had.

Hi I just got the 5.0.1 update, I downloaded it and the phone rebooted itself, I got the installation screen and after 5 seconds I just got the word "error" and I had to restart it manually; the device is rooted, have anyone else had this problem? I would appreciate your help

With lollipop you can't take an OTA if you are rooted or running just about anything else modified (custom kernels, like ones that have force decrypt disabled also will cause it to error out).
You can still flash it manually by flashing the images. If you don't want to wipe, don't flash the userdata.img . Also, if you aren't currently encrypted, booting up with the stock kernel will force encrypt your device, so don't flash that if you want to stay that way. You can then re-root. There are more in depth instructions for doing this out there if you search around for them.
My Nexus 6 took 5.0.1 just fine, but my Nexus 7 does this same thing, running stock ROM/Bootloader/Recovery/etc. The ONLY thing done to it is the Fastboot OEM unlock, but I doubt that alone would stop it. I'm curious to know what resolves this ( other than downloading the factory image and flashing it without wiping the userdata )
Just got same error. I didnt even root phone, bought it today, it installed apps from backup of my previous Nexus 4 and OTA is failing.

So basically the only way is to flash the image manually? If I choose not to flash userdata.img my phone data (photos, contacts, apps, etc) won't be erased right? But I will lose root correct? Thanks!

Correct, with Lollipop if you modify things you basically are then forced to manually take the updates. Not that big of a deal as you would likely be needing a PC to reinstall your custom recovery or re-root anyhow after the update.
Flashing userdata.img isn't necessary to update. Neither is recovery.img if you want to keep a custom recovery.
Also as I mentioned before, if you have disabled encryption on your device, if you flash the stock kernel (boot.img) and boot up with it you will re-enable forced encryption. You will need to flash a kernel with force encryption disabled if you want to keep running without encryption. If you haven't disabled encryption, or don't care if your device re-encrypts (this doesn't erase anything, just may take a few minutes on first boot) then this doesn't matter.

Can I manually update without removing root first? Am I going to receive an error if I don't remove it? based on what you said, I will remove userdata.img and recovery.img and that will not wipe my data right? Do I have to decompress those files or the flash-all.bat will take care of that? Thanks!

I'm interested as well. Mine is rooted and I have encryption disabled, and I have TWRP on my phone. I tried to sideload the OTA update, but I can't get my phone to start sideload. I even flashed the stock recovery to get it to go, and no dice. What do I do next?
Anyone? I would appreciate the feedback, thanks!
sideload refers to adb as I understand it. thats NOT how you flash....you use fastboot to flash so you can do it all by hand or use one of the toolkits that script it for you.

Thanks, I get that, however I wanted to know if I need to remove the root before installing the update and if I need to decompress the .zip with the .img files or the batch will do that? thanks!

If your doing from the PC you need to extract the zip file from within the image and then fastboot them. As for root, when you do it from fastboot I dont believe it matters as you will lose root anyway and need to re-root via flashing SuperSU.zip
Worked great! Thanks! Android 5.0.1 and root, no data deleted
Is it normal to not have received an update beyond 5.0? I have had a Nexus 6 since day one, no rooting of any kind and I have not received 5.0.1.
I have done the sideload method, but I really don't want to bother with it. I do however want some of these terrible bugs I am experiencing squashed. This phone is giving me lots of issues lately.
Thanks!
Can you receive and install OTA updates with an unlocked bootloader? Everything else is stock, no disabled encryption or anything just unlocked bootloader.

If you're planning to stay rooted (meaning no OTA in future) system.img, boot.img and radio.img in any order.

If you use fastboot, just run these commands in terminal (I used windows, so in order to flash using fastboot, put the image that you downloaded for the update in the same folder where you have fastboot and open a terminal there) you can rename the .img files to whatever you like and replace those name in the commands below:
fastboot flash bootloader <bootloader file name here>.img
fastboot flash radio <radio file name here>.img
Then reboot it:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Then flash these:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
And that's it. These commands are run while the phone is connected to the PC, you have to turn it on by pressing volume up + volume down + power.
Good luck.
My stock T-Mobile, unlocked bootloader N6 says that the 5.1.1. update is ready to install and then when I try to install it, it gets about 1/4 done and gives an error. I can reboot the phone at that point but the update never installs. Any suggestions? I've tried the factory reset and I get the same thing.
I downloaded the factory image and fastboot flashed the files.

Haven't unencrypted at all. The only "mod" has been the unlocking of the bootloader. Everything else is bone stock. And it just shows a picture of the Android robot laying down and it just says error underneath it.

Then as stated before, I recommend downloading the factory image, unzipping and flashing everything separately except userdata. Then you won't lose your data.

Fastboot. You need an unlocked bootloader.
I have the same problem. I'm completely stock. Never done anything. I think it's a problem with the update. I've completely factory reset and wiped everything. I can't even get into the recovery mode. Just gives "no command" when I try.

That's exactly my problem, I'm completely stock and have to remain that way since I use my phone at work and they require the AirWatch MDM agent to be installed. I even tried deactivating AirWatch and uninstalling it and I still couldn't get the update to install. I hope there is some way they can either erase and download the update again or just overwrite the current one because this one definitely has problems.
Error you get if you look at recovery messages is
"Verifying current system...
System Partition has unexpected contents
E:Error in /cache/update.zip
(Status 7)
read elsewhere that something has modified a system file so OTA won't work and you'll need to flash full image (erasing everything in process) - which is my next step unless I want to wait for OTA to address the issue in the install procedure. No one has figured out what that item is that caused the change in system - some uninstalled Amazon appstore without success.

Just flash the system image. No need to flash everything. If you've unencrypted, then flash boot image too.
I have the same problem totaly stock, not rooted, untouched! I have the same error. I have 64 gb nexus 6 build number LMY47D.
Ok Guys,
Here is the solution,
1. Download stock image from google developer page, https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
2. Flash with long way;' DONT USE FLASH-ALL SCRIPT' (I tried, update fails again)
fastboot flash bootloader C:/image-shamu-XXXXXX/bootloader.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio C:/image-shamu-XXXXXX/radio.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash system C:/image-shamu-XXXXXX/system.img
fastboot flash userdata C:/image-shamu-XXXXXX/userdata.img
(Note: this command will wipe your device (including /sdcard), EVEN if your bootloader is already unlocked.)
fastboot flash boot C:/image-shamu-XXXXXX/boot.img
fastboot flash recovery C:/image-shamu-XXXXXX/recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash cache C:/image-shamu-XXXXXX/cache.img
(FOR FURTHER INFO PLS SEE THE PAGE; http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/general/guide-flash-factory-images-nexus-6shamu-t2954008)
3. Just turn on your N6 and it will find update and will be succesfull this time
Why do all that then OTA? Why not just flash everything but userdata from the LMY28E image? Boom your updated and you didn't lose data.

Hey,
I am Rooted with TWRP Recovery and Elemental X custom kernel, still encrypted with unlocked bootloader. I got the OTA (LMY47Z) notification and I have got the Factory Image as well as the OTA Zip. Can you guide me as to how can I update my Nexus (currently LMY47I) to 5.1.1 without losing any data?
Thanks.
The thing is which factory image for me?. Thats the reason i decided to do it via OTa. As u will see on developers page there are several versions,
5.1.0 (For T-Mobile ONLY) (LMY47M) Link 0469ca2018c923498cc603baae4fd648 5228e84a8a03609ead6b55df569057d5a4e28e0a
5.1.1 (For Sprint, USC ONLY) (LMY47Z) Link c8fe950ad9e861120a1074825b92cfba 33951732896055848d17b3876d8a39b79fb95301
5.1.1 (For T-Mobile ONLY) (LYZ28E) Link 9ea32a7ff1751afa2a16214ac23ef000 b542b88a0ad478110f9f111dd32b62a1cb65b9d5
So better to do it with the OTA.

Download the OTA Zip, Extract it and check the "\META-INF\com\android\otacert" file to find the version number for your phone.
Hey, sorry if this information is posted elsewhere, I haven't been able to find it with any google or forum searches. I have an Android One moto x4, on google Fi. I've unlocked the bootloader, and rooted the phone (with magisk). Before doing all this (before rooting, after unlocking), I had used TWRP's backup function.
I decided to try to get the 8.1 update [side question: I was only offered OPW28.1; would OPW28.2 have been offered to me without first updating to 28.1?] EDIT: NO. I know that I need to remove root to successfully update the phone, so I used the in-app uninstall function of Magisk, and then rebooted the phone. I tried to run the system update afterwards---and it failed, about halfway through installing. Since this point I cannot get Android to even see there is OPW28.1 , much less OPW28.2. So, I think "That's cool. I have a backup, I'll just restore from that." So, I made another backup, and then tried to restore just the system and system_image (in TWRP---this was probably a mistake). It didn't work---and I don't remember if the phone even booted. EDIT: I think I didn't wait long enough.
So I tried to restore the full backup---and it failed restoring the "bluetooth" partition: it runs out of space (!?)[1]. The phone did not appear to be able to boot after that (it spent a long time at the "Android One" screen, with the color bar oscillating). The good news for me is that I tried a factory reset (all data, I think the option was "user data and customization", the third option), and the phone starts (hooray, no brick). EDIT: TWRP backup does not work. I'll eventually file a bug about this.
Rebooting the phone, it looks totally new (but it remembered my google account name ?? what ??). However, it still isn't letting me update (still isn't seeing the new version is system updates). I tried the dialing "*#*#checkin#*#*" and it says it succeeds, but even after a reboot it doesn't do anything. I cannot find a "google services framework" (or motorola update services) to clear data on in the apps list, but shouldn't that have been reset in both the factory reset and my failed restore attempt anyway? EDIT: Nobody ever got back to me about this.
Sorry for the length of this, I'd really appreciate any input.
[1] adb shell during the TWRP restore session, "tar_extract_file(): failed to extract /bt_firmware//image/crbtfw21.tlv !!!". df /bt_firmware shows 100% use. Why would that even be possible? EDIT: The ext4 partition must have been made with slightly different options that allowed everything to be packed into the tiny partition
EDIT: I downloaded the original Fi firmware from firmware.center /firmware/Motorola/Moto%20X4/Stock/, and flashed the bluetooth partition (after confirming that the the files in that image are bit identical to the backup I made). Bluetooth still doesn't seem to be turning on. Should I just reflash everything? Can I restore my data partition and expect a functional phone? EDIT: I may have flashed to _b instead of _a. In any case I was later able to fix this by flashing the newer firmware quoted below.

Thank you. Do you happen to know how I can go about checking the cryptographic signatures for these downloads? EDIT: I never managed to do this. I'm considering re-locking my bootloader, which should presumably allow this guarantee to be made. But then I risk bricking the phone. I'm not afraid to go digging around a little bit in the images (I can mount an ext4 filesystem or run simg2img no problem). EDIT: I did go mucking around, and I don't have the public key to go about verifying the bootloader. So that's probably a dead-end.
Also, is resetting user data after every upgrade just SOP when running rooted? Is there some approach to making that less painful that I don't know about? EDIT: NO CLUE. Nobody helped me with this. Also, TWRP doesn't seem to support encryption after the upgrade, so I wasn't able to try restoring from my backup. EDIT ON EDIT: Restoring a TWRP data backup went fine. However, right now TWRP 3.2.1-1 isn't supporting decryption for OPW28.1, so that's another complication. (Just remove the password, and everything seems to work)
EDIT: I've tracked down otacert.zip (containing ota.x509.pem), the key presumably used to sign the OTAs, but the images on firmware.center and androidfilehost don't seem to be signed. Were those signatures stripped out? Is it possible for me to capture those OTA directly (my phone should be receiving these)? My question still stands: how do I force my phone to download the new OTA. I'll deal with flashing it once I can get my hands on it. ANOTHER EDIT: I was able to capture the OTA, but it still isn't installing.
EDIT2: I think I've got a better link.

So here is my situation. I already rooted and TWRPd my stock phone when it was Oreo 8.0
I would like to get it up to current but stay rooted and TWRPd. Is it possible to flash it from TWRP and then immediatly reflash TWRP and ROOT?
If not, when is the right method in fastboot to go back to stock (keeping in mind I have TWRP right now along with root)....?

This is not an update zip or rom that can be flashed from TWRP. You will have to do the following:
1. Flash this firmware via fastboot which gets you 8.1.0 w/ April update. (Note: you will lose TWRP and root)
2. Boot the new stock 8.1.0 and take the may security update which will be offered almost immediately.
3. Once on 8.1.0 may update you may reinstall TWRP and a root solution. Be aware that if you do then OTAs from here on won't work. So if you want the June update you will have to re-flash stock 8.1.0 and start over.
Flashing stock will automatically remove whatever twrp or root you have.
To flash this firmware:
Code:
fastboot getvar max-sparse-size
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

Is there a reason you are suggesting reflashing the partition table? That would seem to expose a flasher to more risk that needed.
Granted, I'm not able to OTA to OPW28.2. But the android update engine doesn't reflash the partition table, as far as I can tell.

Well, now I am afraid to flash since there is a question as to why the partition table was recommended. I almost want to hold out for an official flash to stock tool from motorola.

I had no problem getting the 28.1 flashable firmware (cited earlier) working on my phone. I would be sure to only flash to the currently disabled slot--and I'd also be sure to backup the data partition before-hand (and move it off-phone). If you're not touching your active slot, there really shouldn't be any way to mess up the phone (just make sure you're able to get into fastboot with both slots first). If something goes wrong, you can just reset the active slot to the old one.
28.1 doesn't have functioning ADB, so you might also consider setting up Termux and an ssh server on the phone so you can still get a command line on it if needed.
Is there a way to restore my stock rooted phone to allow updated the latest stock OTA updates without having to reflash the whole previous stock ROM? With my previous MOT phones (Moto 2, Moto 3, Moto 4) all I had to do was restore stock recovery and logo and then reboot to allow OTA updates. But since there is no recovery.img in this phone's ROM xml then that option is out. It would be nice not have to restore everything from scratch in order to get the updates.

Yup, If you are just rooted stock and have NOT installed the copy partions.ZIP... Boot to TWRP From FASTBOOT BACKUP your DATA to flash back after Install...Just the Data and install Magisk Uninstaller... After MAGISK unistall... Format DATA PARTITION ONLY...MAKE SURE YOU ARE ON BOOT SLOT A... Reboot to the SETUP WIZARD... STOP and reboot to bootloader.......HAVE STOCK BOOT IMG READY TO BOOT FROM CURRENT FIRMWARE... The STOCK installed boot img has the bootloader and modified devices flagged so that kills the OTA INSTALLATION.... If you have installed any modded logo.bin you have to replace it with STOCK on both logo_a and logo_b
fastboot --set-active=a
fastboot flash logo_a logo.bin
fastboot flash logo_b logo.bin
fastboot boot boot.img
DONT FLASH BOOT
it will trick the flags from trippin that stop the OTA
Setup the phone from setup wizard and it should automatically update the OTA so really its two updates....
Once its done reinstall TWRP and TWRP restore data then install Magisk reboot to your data rooted stock updated OTA

Thanks KtownJeff, that does sound much easier. Why aren't others posting this much simpler solution? Has anyone else tried this?
I haven't tried it yet as it looks like they may be about to figure out the low call volume issue in custom ROMs and then these OTA updates won't be necessary anyway? I'll wait and see what happens over the next week or so.
I'm wondering why it's necessary to wipe the data though. Why isn't uninstalling Magisk and booting with the original kernel enough?
JerseyChewi said:
Yeah the calling issue is just a lineage thing...and lineage is so generically lame. mokee or corvusos are my favs. Most of the custom Roms work well.... and there is a lot more ROMS for our device that is not on XDA.... The Data may be fine Just back it up first....and I put this on telegram and if you haven't checked it out there is five channels for our phone with tons of stuff.....more ROM builds We also have Pitch Black Recovery now available which is twrp with a cleaner UI and lots more options

WHHAAAT?? I got a few questions...
Why is it important not to have the copy-partitions.zip installed?
Why you should be on slot _a?
There is no need to boot the boot.img instead of flashing it. The Magisk uninstaller restores exactly the same boot.img as you can find in the firmware zip. Your device isn't able to store any data on that image.
Sorry, but this is the most complicate way for an OTA I have ever red. You could sum up these steps to "flash the stock firmware". In the end the result is the same. But it's much easier.

Assuming this is not your first time flashing the firmware and you already have a flash script/.bat file:
1. run the script

Motorola provides you OEM signed images and a .xml sheet with proper commands to flash them as a .zip file. I've never heard that someone bricked his device by using the manufacturer's recommended way. I think it's risky to use your own workaround just because you're nervous about it.
Even if you unplug the device in the middle of the flashing process you won't face any trouble. Every single flashing command loads the image into your device's RAM before it gets written to the device.
fastboot oem fb_mode_set = no matter what reboot command you run your device boots into bootloader
Why are you nervous about it?
Why is it important not to have the copy-partitions.zip installed?
Ok so the copy partitons zip is only supposed to be installed when you install the first custom rom coming from original stock..... because it breaks the chain for OTA from motorola.... If you root stock and flash recovery only Its not necessary.... so that way when OTA comes it will move to the B partition the way that it was intended to.....but the boot-loader is unlocked now both slots start with a boot-loader, bootloader_a and bootloader_b.. .and the on board preboot chip will trip the first flag that communicates with stock flashed boot image which also holds the recovery and the kernel... even if its backed up stock.img with magisk, it will break the next flag on the device along with the custom logo.bin.... now the custom logo if it is cloned with a moto signature official it wont matter and the only one Im aware is logo.bin for the TMOBILE REVVLY variant.... when you boot not flash the stock boot.img it bypasses the security chain until reboot.... I've flashed b slot on accident and then booted several GSI and other lake Roms and at some point ill notice on the bootloader screen that maybe i have April 2020 when Im running July 2020 version....which is headache to fix and i booted to b slot flash stock as normal let boot to the setup wizard then reverse to a and do it again because it brings it back together... now the mapping for the AB partition with duel slots t is standard for all ARM64 AB devices Bootloader a and b Boot a and b Radio a and b which is (firmeware) slot Vendor a and b System a and b....
https://www.xda-developers.com/how-...ess-updates-affect-custom-development-on-xda/
the reason why I wrote it the way that I did was because I tried everything to OTA back and this was the only way it worked for me.... and trust me I stayed up for weeks trying to break it or fix it....I finally I came across a moto g6 thread where some one relocked there bootloader and didnt have the oem unlock set and they couldnt do anything to unlock it again using fastboot because the switch was grey out on developer options which means they couldnt root to fix..., I believe it was Sd_shadow that recommended trying to boot the boot.img like how we boot the twrp.img because it bypasses the security flag... well my first attempt it didn't work which led me to the mismatched boot-loaders and I kept at it and by process of elimination and fully learning the way these partitions communicate..... which is totally backwards from the way it used to be... If u leave data then flash back stock, the boot-loader thinks its fresh but finds its not......so boot-loop... tried it cussed and tried again and screamed but now its automatic. for me because of trial and error... I've been at this a few years now and I'm learning something new all the time and most of time when people don't post is because they either don't know or don't wanna give wrong info or maybe nobody showed them. There kinda is an unwritten bylaw at XDA (tough love)... you gotta learn by experience that way when get an opportunity to help or find a new way it makes it worth the stress
That is why I wrote it the way I did step by step in the easiest way possible because of my experiences and headaches...If it don't work you didn't follow directions.... Now I'm gonna tell you I re-locked my bootloader too and was not able to flash back ota don't even try its a waste of time because the only way to get that flag back is to re ball a chipset, or replace the motherboard, or buy a new phone....

First of all the copy-partions.zip is a simple dd command script packed with flashize to flash it through TWRP. It determines the active slot and copies your essential partitions to the inactive one in case they were left blank by your manufacturer. You should have a look inside it.
Also there is no complicated chain of safety for OTAs. When a device powers on, the bootloader first checks if a device is locked or unlocked. If a device is unlocked, the bootloader shows the user a warning and then proceeds to boot even if the loaded OS isn't signed by the root of trust.
If the device is locked, the bootloader goes through the steps in Verifying Boot to verify the device's software.
Magisk hides the unlock state to pretend a trustworthy environment. That's the reason why OEM unlocking option is active and OTA updates start to install. But OTA update files verify your system's integrity by calculating checksums for each partition. This check fails with a active Magisk installation and update process ends with an error.
A preboot chip or sth like this is not in use on Moto devices. Partitions 1-14 (+/-) are defined as your bootloader. A prebootloader does only exist for MediaTek devices but not for SnapDragon.
There's a lot of official documentation about all the stuff...
In my opinion the easiest way to update your device is to flash the stock ROM. One script and it's done. No need to flash this and boot that only to be able to download the OTA which hasn't been installed until then. Your system takes more time to flash the OTA update then fastboot takes to flash the firmware.
BTW: You can call me what you want but that doesn't make your statements right either.

Holy Moly! Come on guys! I only wanted a way to fix OTA on my rooted stock installation without having to do a complete stock reinstall. At the time I asked the question, the newest full stock ROM update was not yet available. It is now. My point was I didn't like going through a complete reinstall of my apps and settings, Backing up my Data partition then trying to restore it has never seemed to work for me. Anyway you all need to just chill and put your egos away.

The fact is you need to restore everything back to stock for an OTA. This includes a deinstallation of Magisk (also modules are gone) and restore your stock boot.img with the stock recovery. Then you download and install the OTA, go back to fastboot mode and start installing TWRP and everything else.
This was option 1.
Option 2: Download the latest firmware on Telegram (only possible with your device!) or install LMSA tool, which also downloads the latest build. Boot into fastboot, flash the firmware (without erase userdata) and boot TWRP. Flash TWRP installer and Magisk. Done!

Telegram didn't have it when I installed the update. LMSA kept giving me a "Decompression failed" error message. So I just reinstalled the stock version I was already on and allowed the update to complete. Then reinstalled TWRP and Magisk without any issues once I had all of my apps and data restored.
Not taking any offense here, but I am not a noob and while I didn't give all of the details to what I had tried I also didn't want to reinvent the wheel. I didn't think about eliminating the line "erase userdata". Since it was very simple with previous devices to do it I knew there had to be an easier way.
