I restored my moto g xt1033 to 4.4.4 with bootloader locked yet i am getting that warning when i reboot my device..

How to remove that and will lollipop update come ??
[Moto G General] moha07:
It will appear bro because we cant lock the boot loader to status zero if we lock boot loader to zero means alone warning msg won't come and u can use moto tool to fix warning msg screen

And sure u will get lollipop update no doubt in that
[Moto G General] farooq.2308:
I have rooted XT1033 with unlocked bootloader. But I really don't remember modifying anything in the system file. I have unrooted the phone. Do I need to lock the boot loader in order to receive the ota?
[Moto G General] deej_roamer:
No you do not need to lock bootloader
[Moto G General] farooq.2308:
Thanks for the response. Is there any way I can check if I changed any system settings which will effect the OTA?
[Moto G General] heratis:
man thanks!! i use your script on a mto g xt1032, for flashing stock 4.4.4, it work great, you save me a lot of time typing commands =)
[Moto G General] deej_roamer:
Ota will be received even if your phone is rooted

There are no system file modifications (not which are available through apps) which will stop Ota as long as you're on stock rom

mfastboot VIRUS solution

It may be the false positive as XDA strongly condemn uploading any form of infections or infected files. But even then if you don't want to use MSFASTBOOT, dont download/use it. You can do the above procedure by using official FASTBOOT in ADB TOOLS provided by google itself. For this you need to download ADB from google's official site. All the best. :good: :cool:

[Moto G General] cr0ssx21:
Noticed that warning too. What I did was download mfastboot through another repository site (just searched via google). Did what the OP listed for restoring stock 4.4.4 except erasing the cache and userdata. Now I'm updated to 5.0.2. :D
[Moto G General] rmivuxgc:
After flashing STOCk 4.4.4, you need to update MOTOROLA UPDATE SERVICE from Google Play Store. Otherwise you wont be able to get Lollipop upgrade notification. Other important thing :--- It would be wise to copy UPDATE file once you complete the download online. It would save your data and time, if anything goes wrong. In that case you can simply put the same update file in the root folder or in root CACHE folder. (need not to mention that root is required for this)

Thats all.

Be wise and play safe :highfive:

---------- Post added at 06:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:14 AM ----------

Are you trying to say that you had downloaded virus from some another repository site? Lolz :p :D

Hello,

Am on XT1033 (India) coming back from CM12. I have flashed a 4.4.4 stock rom on to my device. Now, I have downloaded the 4.4.4 zip from this thread & followed the fastboot steps. I want to upgrade to Android L. But while following the steps, I get a failed message when oem lock command (last command) is given & also I can see the unlocked bootloader warning every time I boot up.

What have I done wrong? Why is this not working?

I did this with 4.4.2 few months ago & it worked fine then, but now its not working.

[MENTION=5139778]narenderreddyn[/MENTION] have you run bat file in step 4 or just ran the commands one by one? Is your phone working perfectly in 4.4.4? I am also currently using cm 12.
[Moto G General] narenderreddyn:
At first I typed each command. I'm sure that I didn't give any bad command but it failed. Next I ran the bat file, but it didn't lock the bootloader. On my third attempt using the bat file, I was able to lock it. But the unlocked bootloader logo shows up every time I boot up even though it's relocked.

Anyway, my mobile worked perfectly fine on 4.4.4 & today I got the "L" update & i did it. So far the "L" update is better than CM12 (in my opinion; based on random restarts, very slow scrolling, frequent crashes when 2 apps are run simultaneously, apps taking longer to load on CM).

then go to the bootloader

make sure the usb is connected ,then it wil automatically install the adb drivers :)

if that fails

2. switch on the android debugging and execute the commands :)

or is it okay if i do after reverting to 4.4.4 by using your method ?
[Moto G General] deej_roamer:
PDS data is necessary to back up in case IMEI is lost

It is always preferred to back up pds before changing anything.

But since moto devices are way more robust chances of pds partition breaking are very less

So you can go ahead, but backing up before is anyday safer
[Moto G General] miaad:
Thanks again,

Sorry to bother again, May i know how to back up them? I read few guides, didnt understand any.

I'm not going to experiment myself anyway, flash CM11/CM12 thats it, Hope that doesnt touch all those partitions huh ?
