Android 6.0 Marshmallow OTA update for Moto G XT1068 (2nd Gen) has started rolling out in India. As the OTA is rolling out in phases, it will take sometimes to appear the notification on your Moto G 2014. However, if you have not received the OTA notification message for Android 6.0 Marshmallow update for some reasons, you can manually install the OTA update on your device.

Before you get start, please do remember that to update your 2nd Gen Moto G 2014 to Android 6.0 Marshmallow, your device should be running on the Android 5.0.2 Lollipop (firmware version 22.56.3). It also requires the stock recovery and unlocked bootloader for the installation of the OTA.

Note that the below file is official Android 6.0 Marshmallow OTA (Firmware version 24.41.34.en.03) for Indian Dual SIM variant of Moto G XT1068. You can install the OTA manually, without losing your device warranty. However, the safest way to update your device to newer software version is by going to Settings -> About phone -> System updates.

Note: If you have unlocked the bootloader and TWRP custom recovery installed on your device, you will not be able to install this OTA update. However, you can restore the TWRP backup (download from XDA here) and follow the instruction as given here.
