Defy XT for RW Update Image

[GeckoPower]

I have dumped the Motorola Defy XT update recently released by Republic Wireless for those who wish to work to make a rom for the device. I have no idea of the format, I know it's not a ZIP.

Link is attached below by nogoodusername, thanks, since I am a new member and cannot post links.

Update looks like ota zip package, because when i added .zip to file extenction & opened it with winrar, I see meta-inf folder & in right size is writen ,,signed by Moto-SignApk. When i oppened renamed file i get error that zip is corruped, so i don't how we'll able to use that file without moto-signing keys..

(please check that you have transferred or created the zipfile in the
appropriate BINARY mode and that you have compiled UnZip properly)

The way I got the ZIP was by connecting my phone to my computer's custom wifi network and captured all packets that came from the phone and to the phone through my computer using wireshark. I then found the end of the file download where wireshark has reassembled the "TCP Segments" and exported that to a file deleting the HTTP header which ends at \r\n\r\n. I did not delete the NULL byte after the new line. Looking at what segments were assembled individually, it is not including the TCP header information, it's just including the payload.

All of that being said... I do not know rather or not wireshark assembled it correctly. I am willing to provide my pcap file after I obscure things identifying my device.

If you got an ota then it is stored in /cache and you can just copy it.
It will stay as long as /cache isn't wiped

I'll get it from my sister's phone and compare with the one I extracted.

I also plan on adding the original /System/ and the new update /System/ untouched by root.

Here is the update. https://mega.co.nz/#!ecEhVRQA!E-uvfkaMvjV67vMO1lKMKywqV3ohMPiuNWTWJ8WHGi0

Here is the update capture file https://mega.co.nz/#!eVlxDQJY!VGBjl2BiGAIiVp3eVmV85T6VayAj0xD9F9kjC0kpbOA

Here is the original system folder. https://mega.co.nz/#!SFElnaYS!ZehMhQ8lDaBt037xoBlxPT70ozoJ9_9rXd0Fo9_MtOI

As soon as my sister gets home, I'm going to update her phone... Get the update zip from her phone's cache as mentioned above, and then dump the system folder after the update.

This is how you should do it
Download the update
Decline the update/reboot
Goto /cache and copy the zip to sd or PC
Then do the update.

See this is what I'm trying to do. Thanks for this btw!
Okay so im trying to rescue my phone from bootloop because of root. Im Not sure if this will work but hey im trying.
When i install this from recovery this is what i get

--Install /sdcard--
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:signature verification failed
The update package may be not correct or corrupted!
Please reboot to OS and try again or ask for technical support.

Now i am a total N00B now. I have been nearly 2 years android less and i forgot everything. SOO.... I now the bootloader or what ever needs a verified, signed update package to install/flash right? wouldnt the update package already be signed by RW?
