OK after a loooooong search I found the firmware that will allow the update to flash.
Download and flash from here http://ftpeil.eil.com.br/vip/motorola/Firmwares/
Then you can do the adb sideload from previous post

BE WARNED YOU MUST DOWNLOAD THE CORRECT WHICH IS NPLS25.86-30-12/12

tnx for finding this firmware i've uploaded it on zip file here : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634787129

you need to take back to complete stock from that link(flash system,boot,recovery,...(not sure about GPT)) then sideload ota

I have the correct version but not the stock recovery, can I only flash the recovery from that link and proceed with sideload ?

I think it is better to flash everything via fastboot and then start up to test. Then you can flash another recovery. Just sayin'

Make a full nandroid backup first.

Edit:I take that back it was a stupid idea
Yes just flash stock recovery

 

[stefanorickeets]

I did but it won't update from my version

Guess I'll just wait for the official RETUS OTA then, can't bother to re-flash the entire stock ROM and start over from scratch.

Is there a way to flash that stock ROM without losing user data?

@Maheshwara after some experiments it now boots regulary. And I am in Europe on the reteu channel and have no problems with LTE.

Movie everything to SD card?

Movie everything to SD card?

I meant without losing apps and stuff? I have lots of apps installed on my phone which I'd have to reinstall and setup again if I flash the stock ROM, that's why I prefer to wait on the OTA.

What are those experiments like, pls? I am being tempted to give it a go thru adb sideload but can't risk having 0 LTE connection. Thank you

 

[Porsche5000]

@enzo_cz the LTE connection was there from the start. I only had some issues with booting and rebooting. But after cleaning data and cache several times and putting the sim card out and in while the phone was booting, it now works. But it was a bit of a bumpy road.

 

[Maheshwara]

I haven't cleaned Data yet. But immediately after sideloading, before 1st reboot, I cleared cache partition (this is an option in stock recovery). Then I rebooted to system. Maybe, that's why I haven't had any problems with booting yet even without the need to wipe Data and reinstall all my apps.

 

[kaliberx]

Update worked like a Charm with lollyjay Way and erfanoabdi package.

I made it with a Fullwipe.

Now starts the Testing.

I had the same issue. Renaming to update.zip did the job for me.

I have a few questions if that's all right. I flash the zip you provided in your latest post with twrp? System, boot and recovery. Then boot into stock recovery and sideload this version I quoted? Trying to make sure I get the steps right. This is my only phone at the moment and I don't feel like soft bricking it, then having to fix it.

Thanks.
