Hello to everyone!
My sister has a Moto E 1gen and she's still on 4.4.4. I wonder is there a way to flash new Brazilian 5.1 Lollipop without rooting the device and unlocking it's bootloader? Maybe something like flashing FW via Odin for Samsung phones or Flashtool for Xperia ones.
Thanks in advance!
Still not got OTA?
Download the correct 5.1 OTA for KK 4.4.4 and put the file on sd card, go to about phone > System updates and check for updates.
The only 5.1 image for XT1021 I've found is Brasil one. I think I need Retail Europe version. Could you provide me any links?
There is no official Retail Europe yet
So maybe 5.0 or 5.02 Retail Europe instead of 5.1?

hello everyone
i bought an unlocked ls990 g3 phone, it seems that it was originally locked
however the software version installed is ZV4 stock
the phone is unrooted but did not received any firmware updates through OTA
my questions are:
1- why i did not receive the official firmware update ?
2- if i update the firmware to zv6 then zv8 manually, will it lock the phone again?
3- if yes, which custom firmware is the best in terms of similarities as the stock firmware ?
i will appreciate if someone could help me
thanks a lot
I bought htc one m8 from e-bay (at&t unlocked) when I was USA. That at&t apps are really annoying and I didnt get the lollipop update. I wanted to update the rom by myself and delete the at&t apps. And now I rooted + unlocked bootloader and installed android revoulation 5.0.1 lollipop rom. I can't use wifi + I cant reboot the phone (it stucks at white HTC screen). I didn't flash firmware because s-on still. So I need really simple and detailed information about what to do. Can anyone pm me about it or explain in comments?
There is not Lollipop update for AT&T yet.
And if you aren't on AT&T's network you won't get any OTAs either. AT&T is fairly unique in this regard, other versions will update regardless of what carrier you are connected to.
For most Lollipop ROMs, you will find your WiFi is broken due to wrong (old) firmware. Your options:
1) A couple Lollipop Sense ROMs (LeeDroid?) seem to work with 4.4.4 firmware. But if your firmware is older than 4.4.4, I don't think any Lollipop Sense ROMs will work.
2) Revert to a ROM version that supports your firmware. For instance, if you are still on 4.4.4 firmware, install a stock or custom 4.4.4 Sense ROM.
3) S-off and update your firmware "manually".
Hello,
I was scrolling through here looking for a german unlocked Version for my z2.
I brought it in Australia and im just tired of waiting for Telstra to Release new Andeoid Updates.
So i wanted to Flash an unbranded Android onto my z2. I found an unbranded 23.1.A.0.690 Build. But the newest available is the 23.1.A.0.726
My question now is if i Flash my z2 with the. 690 will i be able to easyli update it to 726 Build with the Update Center?
Cheers,
Scathar

If you flash a different ROM, i suggest you back up your FTF. To do that, search xda how to make an FTF.
You will need to revert back to your original firmware region to receive updates for that region or flash FTF via flashtool
Quote me in case you expect a reply!
Good Luck
I see another Software Update OTA on my unlocked 850M.
IF this update is 850MUBU1BOB2 I want it !
IF this update is Lollipop I do NOT want it !
How can I tell before I enable Download ?
I downgraded back to KK after LP automatically updated. I can't remember which KK file I downgraded to, but it was different than the original one. Finally figured out the original one and downgraded to that.
If both of our SM-G850M came with the same software version--and I'm betting they did--my guess is that you won't like the newer KK version either. It's not as, "artistic" as the original.
Hello
I flashed the latest firmware available for my S6 edge (SM-G925F) : G925FXXU3DPDP (XEF).
I've never used Android 5.1.1 on my phone and I asks to you if downgrade is possible at this point (latest BL I think) and if yes, how ?
Thanks you for your further replies
Bye.
I Think Once u Flashed The latest Firmware U can't Go back
Because Of bootloader
Bt U can try Download Android LP And boot loader And put Ur phone in Download Mode Flash with odin
i updated on 6.02...
didn´t like it...
flashed back to 5.1.1 stock without problems (odin)
Hello poci,
You were running with which firmware ?
It's easy to go back to lollipop?
I'm reading some comments off people wich say No, ando some less who say Yes.
i made an OTA update from 5.1.1 to 6.0.2... but i didn´t like the battery drain on 6.0.2......(or 6.0.1 i don´t know anymore)
after clean install of 6.0.2....there was no change at all...
then i went back to 5.1.1 by flashing a stock 5.1.1. firmware with odin...no trouble or anything else...
If flash fails, is my device will be hardbricked ???
if you have the right firmware...i would say "no"
so why should it fail?
i used this firmware for my o2 edge
G925FXXU3QOLD_G925FTEF3QOL1_G925FXXU3QOJB_HOME.tar
Beceause newest bootloaders blocks downgrade, you was in which firmware on Marshmallow ?
don´t know exactly...60.1 then
when 6.0.2 blocks downgrade...
