I had golf uninstalled when I applied the update so I don't think that is your issue

I have masqed crusader installed. does that have anything to do with my system/bin/dnsmasq?

Look in root explorer system/bin and see if you have the dnsmasq file

I have the file. In text editor it shows up as a bunch of odd symbols

when you look at your system version in settings/about phone, what does it say? Also, the .893 update you downloaded through cheesecake, what is it named: 5.5.893 or 5.6.893 ?

 

[dstreng]

The update from cheesecake and the leaked post are both 5.5.893.

Why I asked is Moto's servers are now serving up the 5.6.893 update and that update fails during installation if your phone isn't already running 5.5.893. After running R3l3as3dRoot, install the full 893 update in CWM and THEN the downloaded 5.6.893 update through Cheesecake. I know this because I had the same probs last night and dhacker29 sent me the following link: http://db.tt/btLANyTA for the complete 893. HTH.

ill give it a shot. thanks

do i need to wipe or anything for the update?

 

[bigtex52]

I don't believe so. The R3l3as3dRoot is applying an image and the Moto updates are patches so I wouldn't think so.

Mine won't even let me update. It just says checking for available update. Never goes past the little loading circle thingy.

The download file cannot be installed in CWM. I get cannot apply update.zip (bad)

I thought the update file had to installed via stock recovery. When I did it, the stock recovery let me scroll down to the update (which was not named "update") and select it. It then took over the phone and installed and rebooted. I then got a message that the update was successful.
