Flash stock recovery for ota upadte problem.
abhishekr700 said:
Many people are joining xda on daily basis. Some of them join the forum to get custom ROMs while some join in order to get some of their problem that they are facing with their phones solved.
There are dedicated threads for ROMs but what about HELP/QUESTIONS??
People generally straight away start a new thread to get their doubts solved. But this can lead to chaos in the forum.
I'm creating this thread as an alternative to *New Threads* that aim to resolve a question.
Not only this, this thread can also become a Database kind of place where people can look if their question is already solved or not...
I request all members of the MOTO E 2015 sub-forum to help and answer some questions posted here if they can.
I hope you guys get the idea behind this thread...

I have the xt1511 but it's GSM (I am using a sim card.) I rooted it not knowing a lot of things like nandroid backups existed and were a good idea.
There is a system ota update for it. After a lot of searching I found that I need the stock recovery for that upadte to work. I searched and found this,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e-2015/orig-development/recovery-stock-recovery-5-0-2-t3123084
I assumed it would work because mine is GSM not CMDA. I renamed the stoc recovery image to stock.img because I want to use this,
http://www.xda-developers.com/simple-recovery-switcher/
I am following the root guide to use ADB to flash the recovery image and am getting an error.
"<bootloader> Image size exceeded partition limits
<bootloader> Preflash validation failed
FAILED <Remoat failur>"
Any idea as to how I can fix this. Here is a video showing exactly what I am doing. https://youtu.be/2BjRnLsddRU

@vivekanand149 Dude, why the heck are you trying to flash a Moto G 2nd gen ROM onto your phone?!
If you're using an XT1521 (the Indian 4G model), use this ROM: http://www.filefactory.com/file/1ve...XI22.50-53.1_cid7_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
Otherwise, find your model number here: http://www.filefactory.com/folder/752fdb49361c7f62/?sort=filename&order=ASC&show=100&page=1
You need to use the same ROM as your phone's model number!

---

Also when flashing you need to use MFASTBOOT NOT FASTBOOT.

I got two refurbished unlocked moto e 2015 lte phones. One worked well. The other has all the system apps crashing. I didn't discover this until after the return policy expired as I was away on holiday.
I've unlocked the bootloader and when I try to flash recovery through fastboot, I get the following failure:z
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot flash recovery recovery
.img
target reported max download size of 299892736 bytes
sending 'recovery' (10832 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.359s]
writing 'recovery'...
(bootloader) Image size exeeded partition limits
(bootloader) Preflash validation failed
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 0.389s
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>
I am using the correct recovery. I have usb debugging on...bootloader is unlocked. Device id shows up in fastboot/adb.
Any ideas? What can I do? Re-format the recovery partition? What exact commands would I use?
Stuck...please help!!!! Thanks

Which rom version does Indian MotoE2 uses? How do I know that?
I'll download that bro.

---

mfastboot NOT fastboot.
Notice the 'm' in the command.
Motorola stock firmware files have multiple sparsechunk pieces (i.e. img.spareschunk.0,1,2,3), fastboot doesn't allow proper flashing of each of the pieces but Mfastboot does.
Google the command...easy to obtain.

The OTA update will only be a small update for example a bugfix etc. That's the reason why ur version isn't upgraded.
