I'm uploading all the OTA firmware files to my Google Drive. Will post a link shortly. I think there is one to upgrade to 21.11.23. I originally had the 21.11.17 build, I then flashed the first Lollipop OTA that came out for the XT1064, I had issues with memory management and root so I downgraded to 21.11.23 with fastboot from a 'Return to stock' thread and the mfastboot utility. (I'm on Linux.) I dont know if you need an unlocked bootloader for this, mines unlocked so someone else will have to chime in or you can give it a go yourself :D

This link has all of our OTA's for our specific device (Retail USA AWS) to my knowledge. If I am missing one, please let me know and I will upload it so that we have all of them in a central location. There is also a folder called Return to Stock yadda yadda. Inside is everything you need including flash tools, firmwares and instructions to return to stock 21.11.23.

Hope this helps!

Could someone post a nongdrive link? Chrome likes to show the CONTENTS of the file and not the whole thing.

EDIT: Had to be quick to see the download link in "desktop" mode. And start in landscape. So, in the immortal words of Emily Latella : "Oh. Never mind!"
[G 2014 Android Development] devsk:
Strange failure. I am going from 21.11.17 to 21.11.23 in order to apply this OTA. During going to stock 21.11.23 steps where I start to flash various partitions using fastboot, I get:

writing 'partition'...
(bootloader) Preflash validation failed
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 0.334s
failed to flash gpt

"version downgraded for primary_gpt"

The last line shown by the bootloader screen. How did this happen? I think 21.11.17 to 21.11.23 should be an upgrade?

Did my previous attempts to upgrade to Lollipop affect the GPT partition? I am currently running stock Kitkat 21.11.17 + twrp.
[G 2014 Android Development] champofthesun:
Yes, it's definitely XT1064. I've seen quite a few people with the same issue with this white model not receiving updates yet.

Are the naming for the OTA zip, besides the 21.11.23 one, correct? For example, I think from your OP the 21.11.23 zip is the OTA for 21.11.23->22.21.25. So for 21.11.17, is that to update to that version or from 21.11.17->21.1123?
[G 2014 Android Development] Sousuke_Kira_Alexein:
I have the white model 1064. I used this update to flash my phone to lollipop. It was a huge success. Just so everybody else knows that is on the original it of the box phone.

1. Download the file

2. Power off phone

3. Boot into fastboot (by pressing power button and volume down button at same time)

4. Select recovery by pressing volume down

5. Enter recovery by pressing volumes up

6. While in recovery android guy shows up with the red triangle hold both volume button then press and release power button

7. Another menu should show up apply update from SD card find your download folder(up and down volume buttons move and power button selects) and select the zip file

Phone should take over from there

Make sure you are above 50% power.
[G 2014 Android Development] devsk:
You would go from stock 21.11.17 to stock 21.11.23 first. And then, apply the OTA to go from 21.11.23 to 22.21.25. The naming of the files is correct.
[G 2014 Android Development] DellXCD35user:
Please explain again

I am a newbie. I did not quite understand. Please explain in more detail.....

1 - Is there a problem with the white Moto G 2014 stock on 21.11.17, where it is not receiving the OTA or just that its taking longer for this specific device?

2 - It looks like this thread is saying there is some kind of way to manually update. But it seems like two steps or two updates are needed? But how exactly? I mean what file do I download and flash to move from 21.11.17 to 21.11.23?

3 - What file do I download and flash to move from 21.11.23 to 22.21.25? And will this bring it to Android 5.0.1?
[G 2014 Android Development] Sousuke_Kira_Alexein:
IDK about everybody else's.. But my white model xt1064 was already sitting on 21.11.23 I believe it was setup wrong by Motorola. The file on this thread says 21.11.23 but I used it and went to the next one.

Edit: I didn't know the file names were off and recently renamed so I used .25 to update
[G 2014 Android Development] DellXCD35user:
Did your update bring you to 5.0.1?

---------- Post added at 04:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:40 PM ----------

Glad to hear you were able to update. Could you please help me out as I don't fully understand the file naming conventions and step-by-step process here. I have a white XT1064 with 21.11.17 system version and Kitkat 4.4.4.. I want to update it to Android L 5.0.1----I think this can be done based on the OTA files stored here/google drive. Please correct me if I am wrong.

What I don't understand is why there are three OTA files on the Google Drive link? Given my phone version is 21.11.17 which file do I flash first (i.e., the 21.11.17 OTA or the 21.11.23 OTA?). And then what do I do after that? Appreciate any further details please.

---------- Post added at 04:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:27 PM ----------

Thanks so much. I am a little confused though. Why are there three files? I mean since I am on 21.11.17 Kitkat 444 right now, would I not simply flash your 21.11.17 OTA file to move up to 21.11.23? AND then flash your 21.11.23 OTA file to move up to 22.21.25? If I am correct then what is your 22.21.25 OTA file----what would it do? If I am wrong please correct me.
[G 2014 Android Development] Sousuke_Kira_Alexein:
Since you are on .17 just flash it first to make sure nothing happens. Because as with world of warcraft updates it assumes you already have the last one installed so therefore the next one doesn't include the previous updates to save on download MB so you will have to go file to file to update because I'm sure google did the same...yes my phone is on 5.0.1 IDK if his file names are correct but I was already on .23 and it would not update to .25 so I flashed the .23 and it went straight to .25 so if you are on .17 do it first then the next
[G 2014 Android Development] DellXCD35user:
Thank you for responding. If I understood you....I should first flash 21.11.17 and after this then flash 21.23.11. This will bring me Android L 5.0.1. And the last .25 file is not needed. Do I have it all right?
[G 2014 Android Development] Sousuke_Kira_Alexein:
I didn't know he renamed the files. So do .23 then .25
[G 2014 Android Development] who_ohw:
I did not rename the file. All Motorola firmwares are named for your CURRENT firmware version. So, if your current firmware matches the ota file name then you should be able to flash it to upgrade to the next version. Read the OP on how to flash and whether you can or not.

People keep asking questions that are answered in the OP. Stop being lazy and read!
[G 2014 Android Development] champofthesun:
Yup, just tried it. My white XT1064 was on 21.11.17, and flashing the respectively named OTA brought it up to 22.11.6. Then I think you can update from 22.11.6->22.21.16, and then from 22.21.16->22.21.25. I haven't found a update for 22.11.6->22.21.16 that works yet...
[G 2014 Android Development] who_ohw:
To flash the latest OTA you need 21.11.23. Which is a kk firmware. On the drive there is a file folder that contains the firmware you need to flash through fastboot, there is no OTA that ive found yet that flashes your phone to the required 21.11.23 thats needed for this OTA. Your phone comes with it or you have to flash it through fastboot.

From the sounds of it you upgraded past this OTA, and will have to wait for Motorola to release the next one or for someone to post it. Or you'll need to downgrade, but I'm pretty sure you'll need to unlock your boot loader for that.
[G 2014 Android Development] rock7632:
Hi, I have 22.11.6 running on my xt1064. Am I correct in assuming that the file I need to flash is Blur_Version.22.11.6.titan_retuaws.retuaws.en.US.zip to update to 5.0.1 ? Thanks
[G 2014 Android Development] who_ohw:
You can try it. This ota was found in a thread here. I have not flashed it. It might have been renamed by the original poster, though.
[G 2014 Android Development] rock7632:
but if it is the original name then it should work, as Motorola always names the files as the current firmware and not the one its supposed to upgrade to
[G 2014 Android Development] who_ohw:
Correct. If it has not been renamed by the original poster.
[G 2014 Android Development] rock7632:
If it doesn't work, I'll just downgrade to 21.11.23 then upgrade to 22.21.25. The only reason I haven't done that yet is that I didn't want to unlock the bootloader and as far as I know the only way to downgrade is throught fastboot which requires an unlocked bootloader
[G 2014 Android Development] DellXCD35user:
I am currently on an XT1064 with system 21.11.17 like you were. I am trying to get upgraded to Android 5.0.1 (in my case only because it reportedly fixes memory management issues/apps being killed due to low ram issues). I think you noted when you flashed the OTA file "Blur_Version.21.11.17.titan_retuaws.retuaws.en.US.zip" it resulted in your system being updated to 22.11.6.

From here I did not understand what you did? I thought you would have flashed "Blur_Version.22.11.6.titan_retuaws.retuaws.en.US.zip" and that this would have brought you up to 21.11.23? But somehow you ended up with 22.21.16? Appreciate if you could explain a bit more how you got to where you are at now.
[G 2014 Android Development] Android The Greek:
If you downgrade to this firmware you can apply the update in the op

[G 2014 Android Development] champofthesun:
The two ways to get to 5.0.1 if you're currently on 21.11.17 is to either flash/downgrade to 21.11.23 (KitKat) and then flashing the OTA from OP, or flashing all the OTAs from 21.11.17 to 22.21.25. For the latter, you first have to flash the 21.11.17 OTA, which updates you to 22.11.6 (5.0.0). Then you'll have to flash the OTA for 22.11.6 which takes you to a new update of 5.0.0, 22.21.16. And then from there, there's an OTA for 22.21.16, which will bring you up to the latest build of 22.21.25 (5.0.1).

The 21.11.17 OTA can be in the Google Drive that OP linked to. Howver, the issue is that there is currently no working 22.11.6 OTA, so you're pretty much going to be stuck there. There's another thread where someone posts that OTA, but it's corrupt and fails to verify when you try flashing it. There seems to be a working 22.21.16 OTA though, but since it's necessary to flash each OTA, there's no way to tell unless someone has another (working) copy of the 22.11.6 OTA.

*21 = Kitkat, 22 = Lollipop.
[G 2014 Android Development] DellXCD35user:
Thank you for taking the time to provide a very clear explanation. It now all makes much more sense. I have been trying for weeks to get this kind of detail. So many many thanks. There is just two more parts I don't get?

1) How is going from 21.11.17 (KitKat 4.4.4) to 21.11.23 (KitKat 4.4.4) considered a downgrade? I am assuming an increase from .17 to .23 means its an upgrade, no?

2) Since November 2014, I have been waiting for an official OTA update. Do you know if Motorola released one for the XT1064 with the 21.11.17 system? If so, then my device somehow got missed out. If not yet, then any idea why it is taking so long as other XT0164 devices seem to be getting the OTA.
[G 2014 Android Development] ImperiousRex89:
I was messing around with the settings and I was adjusting the screen brightness. I lowered it to the lowest setting and the screen turned completely black. Can't see anything. I already tried rebooting the phone but as soon as it boots the screen turns black. On the older kit kat rom when I lowered the brightness setting all the way down the screen did not turn black. Any ideas on how to fix it.
[G 2014 Android Development] jluke86:
If you shine a flashlight at the screen, you should be able to see enough detail to navigate back to the settings and increase the brightness. Does that work?

Uuups... Sorry, links are updated now
[G 2014 Android Development] ReaperManHK:
I too am stuck on 22.11.6, I stupidly insisted on updating my sister's Moto G to 5.0 before the new OTA to 5.0.1 was released, telling her how awesome Lollipop is. Of course she's now complaining about the known freezing issue (at least I think it's known? Sometimes the phone won't respond, the notification LED still works, but it won't respond to any button presses and the screen remains off)

I'm trying to avoid wiping her phone or unlocking the bootloader, though I will if I must - she needs the phone fully operational by the 12th of January.

As with everybody else, flashing the 22.11.6-22.21.16 OTA results in a signature verification failure, so I'm looking further into the issue. I deliberately attempted to sideload the 22.21.16-21.21.25 OTA to see what the update required - this is the error log (which strangely I can't pull from ADB, so I'm typing it out as best I can - some of the text isn't wrapped correctly, so I did my best):

I'm sorry if this is already old news, but is the reported build somehow different from the expected version required for the 22.11.6 OTA, or is the file simply just corrupt?
[G 2014 Android Development] doppelhelix:
Well, there are so many OTAs flying around, its a desaster. Before pulling your hair out, unlock the device, and install TWRP and Titan ROM. All problems will vanish into thin air. Just a thought
[G 2014 Android Development] ReaperManHK:
If it was my phone, I would unlock it in a heartbeat. However, since this is my sister's Moto G, I would rather go the official route and not void the warranty.

Since there are so many OTAs floating around, are you aware of any other sources for the 22.11.6 OTA besides the one you uploaded? If people could compile the various .zips out there, maybe one might work - I tried yours and had no luck.

That one wont work if youre on 6. Via loading it from the stock recovery while bootloader is locked. There is no way as of now to upgrade from .6 with a locked bootloader. You'll have to unlock and fastboot flash or wait for an ota that might never come. Im in the same boat with my wifes moto g2. She doesn't want me to unlock her bootloader.
[G 2014 Android Development] thisisjason:
I was stuck on 22.11.6 too. The only solution I found was the downgrade to Kit Kat (21.11.23) and then use the update posted here to jump straight to 22.21.25.

My phone was stuck on 22.11.6 (as evident by my numerous post in this thread trying to flash the 22.11.6->22.11.16 OTA) and is now at 22.21.28... so I think I'm as sure as humanly possible. I've seen a quite a number of people state that they've received it on different threads and websites: here's one. It's rolling out as a soak test according to Moto (there was a G+ post about it yesterday), so not everyone is going to receive it.

This just happened. I can't connect to my google account on my phone. It started with it not connecting to the play store randomly. Checked internet and it was working perfectly so I tried again no luck. Cleared gapps cache and data. No luck. Checked date and time, no luck.

Then I factory reset and tried again, it didn't even let me log in to my google account. Wiped data/cache, checked time, no dice.

Nothing changed in my phone at all, it just stopped working. No flashing, nothing. This is unnerving. I even tried logging into a different gmail account. I just odined to stock last week to start fresh and everything was working perfectly I do not want to do that again. Anyone help?
