How To Update Moto E without voiding warranty .

                     
Yes, you’ve heard it right. We’ve got lollipop for our beloved Motorola Moto E. Isn’t it funny when you see that a 6000 Rs device has got a software update earlier than those 50,000 Rs devices? I know you might be reading the above lines with least curiosity. So let’s continue for what we are here for, the Lollipop Drama!

In this short little guide, I will show you how to install lollipop on Moto E. And yes, it’s all official. Nothing is custom and so, you don’t need unlocked bootloader, custom recovery, or root access to install the update. All you need is an indian retail version of the Motorola Moto E which is running stock version of android and has a locked bootloader.

• And yes, even after updating using the methods given below, you will get future updates.

Notes –

• Make sure that you are running completely stock version of android before applying the update. Do not try to apply the update with custom recoveries as it may hardbrick your device.
• Make sure that you have an indian retail version of the Moto E. You can check this by going to Settings->About Phone and scroll down and check if your system version is 21.12.40.condor_retaildsds.retaildsdsall.en.03reteu only.
• Make sure that you have atleast 50% battery before applying the update.
• Make a backup of all your apps and data before applying the update. (The update won’t wipe any data on your device, but still, it is safe to do so.)

Method -

1. Download the soak test update zip from here http://bit.ly/1B6HdYq (Mediafire) or here http://bit.ly/1ElrjqJ (Devhost)
2. The zip has already been renamed to work accordingly. (Thanks to LijoDXL)
3. Download Motorola Update Services apk from here http://bit.ly/1z9Lox0. Install it on your device.
4. Put the zip file which you’ve downloaded in the root of your internal memory as well as external memory. (Root means simply internal or external memory. It means that you have to place the file directly in the internal or external memory and not in any folder inside internal or external memory.)
5. Make sure that you have at least 500 mbs free in your internal memory.
6. Reboot your phone.
7. Now go to Settings->About Phone->System Updates. You will see a screen stating “New system software available”. Click on “Yes I’m in”.
8. Now, a download will begin and you can see that in the status bar. Once the download is complete, swipe down the notification bar and click on Install system update->Install now.
9. Now, your phone will reboot into recovery and install the update update automatically for you. You just have to wait and watch for around 10-15 minutes.
10. When you phone will start booting, just let it boot and don’t panic. Since this is a big software update, so it will take some time to boot up the device.

• You can delete the zip file from internal as well as external storage after the update. Enjoy Thank you .
