[OTA] Official Marshmallow build MCG24.251-5

[TheSt33v]

WARNING: THIS HAS BRICKED PHONES! It is suspected that having an encrypted phone causes these bricks, but that has not been confirmed. If your data partition is encrypted, it is extra important that you perform a factory reset before taking this OTA. Doing this will remove the encryption.

WARNING: INSTALLING THIS ON A LOCKED BOOTLOADER WILL ELIMINATE ALL CHANCE OF YOU EVER UNLOCKING YOUR BOOTLOADER.

If your bootloader is unlocked, it will not be re-locked after this update.

Do NOT flash this using TWRP. If you want to do that, use this version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo/development/rom-mcg24-251-5-100-stock-t3512949

So if you're a bad enough dude to flash this anyway, follow these instructions:

1. Backup all data on your phone. It will be lost.
2. If your bootloader is locked, make sure you are on SU4TL-49. If you aren't, take all available OTAs until you are.
3. If your bootloader is unlocked and you have TWRP installed, flash SU4TL-49 using this package: https://mega.nz/#!3xRhiaSR!KxH2Ya_BYK4zBjrxmej7dqaaDJVT1coTFJVJ5Fvb2WM
4. If you have TWRP installed on your phone, download the stock SU4TL-49 recovery here: https://mega.nz/#!L1AkQD4T!qoZIlLa-wuUBLMEi_gE574meiHd6Pehb34a-x3Gb-V8 and install it using the install image option in the install menu in TWRP. Reboot to recovery.
3. Perform a factory reset using the stock recovery menu. This will wipe all data and ensure that everything is formatted exactly as it should be.
4. Boot the phone normally and place the marshmallow update on the root of the directory that pops up when you plug in your phone.
5. Boot to recovery and at the stock recovery menu, select "apply update from sdcard."
6. Select the update and cross your fingers.

I will do my best to provide more detailed instructions later today. Good luck.

Are you sure that that file is the right one? It has the same version number as su4tl-49.

I'm positive. I seem to remember they did the same thing with SU4TL-49. The OTA was named after SU4TL-44 for some reason.

This is the stock recovery version, correct?

Correct. You install this using the sideload option in the stock recovery.

Thanks for the info and the download! You finally brought the wall down. I'm waiting for the twrp version myself

Thank you, now we can see what can be done with the new modem, kernel, etc...

Looking forward to a plethora of improvements to our phones

I'm testing the TWRP version now. It should be up shortly.

EDIT: I flashed it and it seems to work fine. Uploading now. Should be up in a few hours. I'll check on it after I go run some errands real quick.

Despite having software status report official, not modified, I too got a status 7 error. Downloading again.

This used to always be Motorola's naming scheme. New updates were named after the firmware version they replaced.

 

[Claps1775]

Sweet. I am going to wait till it is more stable. I do have a bad esn Turbo but I will need to unlock to bootloader to test.

Mirror for people having "quota exceeded" error at Mega

Rename to Blur_Version.24.81.5.quark_verizon.verizon.en.US.zip before use, throw in internal storage, and check for updates.

PS: I have 64Gb Employee Edition, and still had not receive update by air. What a shame, VZ! )

Error 7? Are you trying to flash this in TWRP? Because you can't do that with this package. You need the stock recovery. I'm uploading a TWRP-friendly version now, but the internet is being slow today.

Negative. Stock recovery on a system that reports "Official". I'm at a loss.

Strange. Try reflashing SU4TL-49. If my TWRP package doesn't do it for you, use the full firmware package and do it manually with fastboot.

Installed successfully on two devices.

kitcostantino, did you refresh system, kernel, modem and recovery by SU4TL-49? Are you sure you didn't mess with Turbo Maxx ROMs in the past? Foreign bootloader can cause even brick, not just error. See bootloader status at fastboot mode should be " locked, status 0"

lol. lawd, No. Ive been rocking status 3 for over a year.

As a tip, if anyone else with an unlocked bootloader runs into this,
what i had to do was restore my su-44 unmodified backup, OTA to SU-49, and then, after confirming my
q/e status was 0/1 i was able to update via the file in my Mega download folder. all is well now. they even added the newer version of command center. sweet. thank you all!!

It works in LOCKED BOOTLOADER??? .-.

Um, I couldn't tell you.i be been unlocked since the day Sunshine could unlocked our bootloader's. What I can tell you is you should absolutely unlock that via Sunshine before you even dream of applying this update. There will never be another opportunity.
Just my
.02. This is likely the last update for this phone, and your only chance of seeing N is via custom Roms.
