[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] TweaknFreak:
Well this thread is for users on limited data who can't download more than 1 update per day and are rooted. I live in a place where network only gets worse :( . So the thing is for some reason the Oneplus updater shows different versions at different times. I noticed this when I was trying out Custom ROMs and restored my default OOS 3.5.3 backup a number of times.

The procedure I followed will WIPE your personal data, so take necessary backup prior to start.

So I got this update named OnePlus3TOxygen_28_OTA_029-039_patch_1701140132_8ffdc05d9c.zip of 920.60 MB when I was on OOS 3.5.3 . But when I kept installing it via TWRP it failed. I even tried with stock recovery, but still no luck. So I backed my app data from ES file explorer and did a factory reset. This time the updater was starting to download the entire 4.0.2 ROM of 1.5 GB :mad: . I had to cancel it and wiped my entire ROM. Then I flashed stock recovery and flashed OOS 3.5.3 . I started the device, completed the initial setup and upgraded locally from the Updater app using the aforementioned OTA zip. That worked and now I have Nougat up and running without having to download the entire OOS 4.0.2 ROM again.

To my understanding the ROOT was probably the issue for OTA failure while updating. Also I faced quite grave heating issues in daily usage and no gaming, which apparently got sorted out in Nougat. Do share your opinion cuz I'm still new to this device and have a lot to learn and thanks for reading. :o
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cjet:
I have a non-rooted XT 1575, that had a sim card issue that gives me the 'No Command' message after trying to install the System Update (24.221.8.en.US). I had a friends son restore it by reloading 24.49-18-4. It seemed to work ok, then I received a notice to do the system update again (24.221.8.en.US).

Before doing this, I spoke with his son who assured me that it should be ok to do and go ahead and do it, even though the software says "modified". I tried installing the update and it did the same 'No Command' b.s. as before. I was able to get it to reload the 24.49.18-4, but the software status still says modified, and I am getting this dang update notice again. I also unlocked the bootloader at this point.

It is my understanding from what I have read on this forum that as long as the software status says "modified", that I will be unable to accept any updates. Is this correct? And the bootloader status is irrelevant as far as updates?

All I want is to restore this thing back to stock so it can accept updates. I am not interested in rooting. After reading the forum I am not sure how to proceed, and any help would be greatly appreciated.

u need to flash official factory image inorder to get the updates

i hardly recommend you to use fastboot and install stock firmware from this site

https://firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto X Pure (XT1575)/Stock/

if your system is modified then you might get updates but if u install them then you will end up in a bootloop or we can called it as softbrick...

install the latest firmware and then check for updates

if u have any queries then go through this.... make sure that u don't mess up

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
If I understand your post correctly, and the COMPLETE firmware image was flashed, then you should have no issues taking an OTA update... the status of modified and bootloader lock/unlock is not relevant. The update should just work, the fact it doesn't means something is still modified or the cache is corrupt.

Try this, before you accept and download the update, boot into stock recovery and wipe cache. Or better yet, do a full factory reset and accept the update and apply it, then let it boot fully, do another factory reset and then set it up clean.

I don't know why this happens... it just seems like a few every update won't take it no matter what we do, and for we do not have the latest full factory image yet so there isn't much we can do to find another way.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cjet:
Thank you both for your reply. However, I am still not clear on something.... there seems to be confusing/conflicting advice regarding the Software "Modified" status and it's role in accepting updates.

1. "if your system is modified then you might get updates but if u install them then you will end up in a bootloop or we can called it as softbrick..."

2. " the status of modified and bootloader lock/unlock is not relevant. The update should just work, the fact it doesn't means something is still modified or the cache is corrupt."....... If the Software status says "modified" doesn't that mean that the system is indeed modified, and that trying to load the OTA in this state will result in a bootloop? .

u neee to flash official firmware.... the only way to remove modified and change it to official....

it actually doesn't matter that if bootloader is unlock u can install the updates...... i was on may patch and i also wanted to change the software status from modified to official in order to get sept patch... but in moto firmware center the latest was feb 2016.... so i had to downgrade... i tried and it worked... then i was eligible for ota and yes im on sept patch

Why don't you just flash a custom rom? I mean if your bootloader is already unlocked....
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
I disagree... it CAN go back to Official, I had several ROMs on my device, then flashed stock image and somehow mine went back to Official. Was mine a fluke? I don't know, but it is clearly Official now. Note the picture clearly shows the bootloader was unlocked (Status 2) and I had at least dozen different ROMs flashed over time before going back to stock using the May 2016 security image and then successfully OTAing up to October security update.

OP, I think we are getting caught up in the software status saying "Modified" which is of no consequence, and the device actually being modified meaning something is not stock... it's a semantics thing that I believe is confusing. The software status isn't relevant, it could say HACKED for all we care (and no, I don't think there is such a thing), but it's whether the device is REALLY stock or not.

Wow, thanks everyone for the suggestions and patience!

OK, so the software status does not affect OTA update installation. Software status being modified does not necessarily mean that the SYSTEM is modified. Yet if the SYSTEM is modified then taking the OTA update will cause a softbrick.

How can I tell if my SYSTEM is modified before deciding on taking the OTA update?

I have had the official Motorola firmware flashed/reinstalled previously by friend's son, and that didn't take the OTA update. It caused soft brick (No Command error bootloop)

I then went to the Motorola site myself, downloaded the firmware and flashed/reinstalled it. This is where I am currently, trying to decide if I should take the update or put it off until I have a couple of hours free to troubleshoot in case the OTA softbricks this thing again (it takes me much, much longer to figure this stuff out than it does for you guys. )

And if that does soft brick it again, then I am not sure what I am doing wrong with the flashing. So, is there any way for me to check to see if the SYSTEM is modified before I try the update.? Thank you!

I don't understand what you are saying. I cannot see "what" if it is modified? Edited - removed earlier rant.

(Sorry)

SOLVED.....

Today I backed everything up, bit my lip and hit "install update". It did update the phone and it did change the software status to "Official". I did this with the bootloader unlocked, and it worked . It does say Status Code 3, and the bootloader unlocked warning screen on startup appears, both of these I am guessing is normal. Everything seems good.

Yesterday I wasted much time scanning for malware because of these ads. The Clean something ad saying my phone was full took up the whole screen and didn't have an x in the corner to close it. So instead of opening the file I have to figure out how to get rid of the thing plus make me think I've got some kind of virus. Isn't some kind of small banner enough?
[MX Player] Rav45:

Nice ads, well done. Sayonara~
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Devs also has life. They need some funds to maintain the development of the app. As android is extremely bloated with piracy, it's very difficult to get the necessary funds from pro version itself. So, we have forced to show some more ads

We are hearing to the users. We will try to further optimise the app to show ads without affecting user experience.

If you found any ads, that may not be suitable / with some abusive contents, you can report it here. We will take the necessary actions.
[MX Player] krasCGQ:
When I heard of 1.8.17 update that disabled full screen ads, I updated it and it went fine, just for a few moments. The next time I reinstall the 1.8.17, the full screen ads appeared again, more frequent, even after updating to 1.8.20 either via Play or APKMirror; happen everytime MX Player window is opened or when exiting the player, forces me to switch to 1.0.7 Beta APK for Indian markets. At least, it's still enjoyable without the annoying full screen ads.

EDIT: And I started to getting full screen ads on the beta APK. What a shame.
[MX Player] Embeddednut:
Thirumalai, thanks for explaining. I uninstalled your MxPlayer and gave one star on Play store for the annoying ad. Now I'm googling for patched version of Pro version. Thanks!

There should be limit for greed or else these kind of things will happen.

Does the Pro version have ads? Your Google Play Store description says this:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mxtech.videoplayer.pro&hl=en

Is that still true, or does the Pro version also show ads now?

I told someone they were mistaken Mx Player Pro had ads, that maybe they were infected with malware. Has your ad policy with the Pro Player changed?
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
MX Player Pro version is still Ad-Free. In fact in 1.9.x versions the ad modules are removed from the Pro app.
[MX Player] Bos3Mq:
Granted the ads are intrusive, but boycotting the app all together will hinder development of it in the future. If you truly find the ads that irritating but think the app is good enough to bother looking for an older version of it, then why not buy the pro version? is it really that expensive? wouldn't you want to be on the cusp of bugfixes ?

First of all, I'm german, so sorry if something's wrong with my English

Hey I've got a Nexus 5 laying around (I don't use it) and it is bootlooping. I would like to fix it but nothing works.

1. Power button isn't stuck (checked it)

2. I can boot into the bootloader

3. fastboot works fine

4. Can't get into Recovery ( when I boot into Recovery the Google Logo comes up and it keeps restarting)

5. Flashing a fresh Android doesn't work

6. Flashing a custom Recovery doesn't work

7. I don't know anything about the phone (I just got it because i wanted the display for my other Nexus 5)

8. bootloader is unlocked

I have fastboot and adb on a Windows and a Linux machine. Thanks for your help :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dahawthorne:
Your English is perfect (apart from the lower case on "German" :)) - if you hadn't started with that sentence I would never have known.

At the risk of boring people who may have already seen this post in other threads, see if this advice helps at all. If you have a working bootloader screen it may work. You can ignore the first sentence about backup, since in your situation it's redundant.

Preparation.

- Take a TWRP backup and save it on your PC.

- Download factory image (https://developers.google.com/android/images#hammerhead) and unzip all files, including the zip within the zip. Rename the *.img files to the names below. Copy all of them to the same folder as your ADB/fastboot executables.

- Download the relevant TWRP and rename to twrp.img - also put in ADB/fastboot folder.

- Copy SuperSU to device (if root wanted).

- Set USB debugging in Developer options & attach to your PC.

- Open a CMD window, navigate to your ADB folder, and check connectivity with "adb devices". If it's ok, copy & paste each command below into the CMD window and run them - the only lengthy one is the system.img.

1. adb reboot bootloader

2. fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img

3. fastboot reboot-bootloader

4. fastboot flash radio radio.img

5. fastboot reboot-bootloader

6. fastboot erase system

7. fastboot flash system system.img

8. fastboot erase boot

9. fastboot flash boot boot.img

10. fastboot erase cache
