The OTA beta version was posted on XDA earlier today and removed by XDA. I am sure there are legal reasons they can't host a thread with a link to the files.
Plenty of us still have the file and may share info about it. The OTA patches exploits to root methods currently known. Join the irc and help us crack the root. Id be happy to share any file i have for you to use.
Chat with us
Thanks!

You might as well take it down. It's against forum rules i believe.

Is this file tied to an IMEI? Or is the update file for any phone?
unfortunate
We don't know yet if its IMEI or sig checking I think I read that it is running checks against sigs. Also I think they only used imei to push the OTA to the phones not to lock that particular update to that particular phone

Sorry for the newbie question, but how do I use this update?
rename the zip to update.zip and put it in the root directory of your sd card, then boot into recovery and load it. If it fails the check you may need to reflash the original sbf first.
what do you mean rename the zip? are you referring to the file name or are you referring to a specific file? and also do we need to extract the file?
In the accompanying message it said something along the lines of 'who can use this uppate/ any atrix.'

need help. did alll the steps corectly, then it says finding update package, opening update package, verifying update package, failed to read footer from /sdcard/update.zip (is a directory) signature verification failed, installation aborted. am i doing something wrong?
Has anyone tried putting the update file into their cache along with the ctc or cbc (don't remember what the file ext is) and tried hitting the update button in the phone to see if it recgonizes the update as though it actually came OTA?

As far as copying to the cache goes, I did not try that but renaming to update.zip and updating through recovery worked fine after I re-flashed to the stock sbf. It took a little bit longer to go through the initial boot process after the update than it did flashing an sbf file, but seems to be smoother overall so far, I only have about an hour on it though.

I've renamed the file to update.zip and have put it into the sdcard directory and then rebooted but have not noticed anything updating. I've also tried sdcard-ext directory. Can you explain a little as how you got this file to work? I am not rooted, and have not done any mods so I am on the original sbf.
Thanks for your help.

When you reboot your phone hold the volume down button until you see the Fastboot text at the top of the phone, then hit the volume down button until you see it say Android Recovery, hit the volume up key to load into recovery, once you see the android guy and the triangle tap the lower right portion of the screen, from there you will have the recovery menu, at this point you can use volume up/down to select and then tap the ok at the bottom left

How do you reboot into recovery mode?
I'm thinking Moto is watching this forum very carefully to gauge the success of their root access lock-down efforts (I know I would). The only counter an open forum like this has is to delay posting of any new root access methods until after Moto's offical release of the ATRIX Update software. Time is on our side, not Moto's - their release process is long and expensive with little return in $$$. I know that devs are just starting to look at this, and a new root method is wishful thinking at this point, but just had to throw in my 2 cents.

Ok. So obviously anyone who has installed the google goggles remover app from the market from paul will have issues to install the ota download via bootloader. I've tried pauls method to fix this and flash back to stock rom via fastboot which could be found here - http://android.modaco.com/content/t...ng-to-stock-1-19-before-applying-the-new-ota/
My issue is it doesn't work for me. Downloaded the pc10img rom, downloaded the fastboot zip. Created a folder on my desktop named android and I put both files in there. I then extracted the fastboot zip and tried to open windows-fastboot exe which was in the zip but all I get is a black screen that opens and closes within 2 seconds. I also tried going to start->run->cmd and trying the last 3 points from pauls site and I get a unsupported command error in cmd terminal in windows. I'm using windows wista 32 bit ( if that matters ). Any ideas fellas? Your help is much appreciated.

Install update without wiping anything
Download zip file then rename it to update.zip and place in root of sdcard
Hold volume down and power then select recovery
Select install update.zip
Once completed your phone will reboot and after it turns on you will get notification saying congratulations you updated phone.
Notice that all your apps and settings remained in tact.

how I did it
I had the goggles removed....
I forgot my sync cable at work.... so I renamed the .zip file to pc10img.zip
put it on the root level of my sdcard (i.e. not in any folders). I used a MicroSD adapter.
Then powered up my G2/vision while holding the touch button.
Went to the bootloader and it did a file check and found the zip file and began reflashing then reset and finished.
I also had the update.zip in the same place and it went hands free. No problems.
I used appbrain to back up my apps. but thats me.

Just tried this method. Now my g2 is stuck at a black screen with a phone and a green arrow after the OTA update was installed via bootloader..
I cant even boot back into recovery or anything from here....
i had the same problem with the black screen and the green indicator. run fastboot reboot when it completes the update. i removed goggles and used pauls method and everything works great. if its not working youre doing it wrong

Mine stayed at that screen for a while. Not sure if I caused it to finally go through, but a pressed a few random buttons on the outside after a while and it continued with the install.
Updated. THX for the info.

Make sure you have it named update noticed you had udate as the spelling. And if you did pauls way and reverted back to stock / wiped then you shouldn't have problems loading the update . Make sure its on the root of your sd card. Then update via bootloader.

Its not that hard, all you do is place the latest OTA update on your sd card, and rename it to update.zip. . .Its easier than it looks. Then you just boot into recovery, and flash it.

You have to reflash the stock ROM, meaning it erases everything, then you flash the ota on top. Paul has more infoat his site.

You do realize you have to run the fastboot commands through adb. And that file has to be located where you have fastboot, or the sdk tools folder is.
Code:
fastboot flash zip PC10IMG.zip

name it update.zip....put it in root of SD, reboot to recovery and choose install update.zip
At least that is what I did and it worked perfectly......do it at your own risk though.

I zipped the file so it should be easier to dl. Try this link. If you are going to rename it unzip it first, then rename. It was originally a htm file in my cache folder but as above some have had success renaming and flashing it.

If you did did the GPS Fix (assuming you're on stock BML EI22), then you will need to replace the system/vendor/bin/gpsd file or else you will get an Error Status 7 when you try to do the update. You can extract the file from the EI22.zip (If someone can post the file and host it, even better).
I haven't tested the GPS after updating so I don't know if the new gpsd file fixes anything or reverts things back to what they were (ie locking on only 3 or 4 sats). If it has reverted it back, then you will probably have to re-run the GPS Fix again.
i got an error "verifying the script(?)" i forgot the complete error message when i tried to install it from stock ei22 and stock recovery.
Do you think it has to do with the fact that I downloaded within the phone's webbrowser, and renamed it in ES explorer within the phone?
I have trouble mounting my phone to my computer, so i either have to download files to my phone directly from within its own webbrowser, or take the sd card out and mount that seperatly.
@qbking77: you don't need to rename the update file to update.zip since the GB roms the stock reccovery allows you to choose what zip to use.
For me I copied both updates to my card as update.zip, EI22 and update-EL30.zip then I:
1- ODIN'd to EC05
2- shutdown
3- 3 finger salute
4- flashed update.zip (EI22)
5- shutdown
6- 3 finger salute
7- flashed update-EL30.zip
After that I:
A- copied the su.zip that removes the reinstall of stock recovery,
B- ODIN'd cwm 3 but unchecked reboot.
C- pulled battery
D- 3 finger salute
E- flashed the aboved mentioned su.zip
F- flashed cwm5
G- rebooted
That left me with a stock kernel with root and custom recovery. Made a NANDROID and have been tinkering with it.
Right now I'm tring to get CRT-OFF to work.

Even if you're using a stock rom I don't see much benefit in upgrading. GPS was still broken for me and they changed/removed things I liked in the older stock roms (ie: incoming call screen, the alarm screen [took me a while to figure out how to snooze this morning which meant I got to work on time ;-)], the scrolling wallpaper). All minor things but I didn't have any issues with EI22 so...

I got the ota the other day and debated installing it because my M is rooted and the bootloader is unlocked and I have flashed ClockworkMod recovery. I searched for a while to see what others were saying and didn't really find anything of note so I decided to go ahead and run the install. When the phone rebooted into recovery and tried to install the update, it gave me the following Error: E: Failed to verify whole-file signature. Then there was an option to apply unsigned update (or zip, I can't remember the wording exactly). I chose not to do this and went back in the recovery menu and rebooted back into system. The phone booted normally and then immediately rebooted on its own back into recovery to try to install the update again, ending in the same results. This happened 2-3 more times before I finally formatted the Cache Partition through cwm which ended the bootloop (not sure that you can really describe that as a bootloop since it was actually doing what it thought it should be). My question is this, is it safe to go ahead and install the unsigned update via CWM? I have also since seen threads stating that if you had removed some of the bloatware apps, that the update would fail. I have removed many of these unneeded apps, should I reinstall them? I have seen a link or two to the bloat apks...
Having a unlocked bootloader doesn't matter. You just need to be stock 4.1.1 bloatware and all.
what he said^
you can update it with cwm but you have to have all the crapware that came stock still present.
Do you have to unroot first to get it to install? I have TWRP recovery on mine and can't get the update to install.

You could try grabbing the apk from /data/app and moving it to /system...
Or grab it from one of the many /system dumps around here...
Someone should turn the OTA into a flashable zip from CWM/TWRP that doesn't check for that.
I may do that...

I had the same thought about moving the apk to the system/app directory and did just that. My expectation was that I would still get the error but for a different app since I just tested with the one that had been throwing the error but it didn't change, still gave the error for the amazon mp3 app even though it was successfully installed in the correct directory. Thanks for the thought though. If you could turn it into a flashable zip, I would be much appreciated. I would love to do that myself but I have no idea how. I know just enough through trial and error (and a lot of forum reading) to be dangerous...
After installing 4.1.2, I can no longer fastboot back to 4.1.1 or 4.0.6. They put in some sort of backrev check.

There is a 4.1.1 system dump here. Download it, transfer any missing apps in /system/app over to your phone.
The reason you have to have those is that the current one from the playstore will be different, causing the update check to fail and abort.

There is a 4.1.1 system dump here. Download it, transfer any missing apps in /system/app over to your phone.
The reason you have to have those is that the current one from the playstore will be different, causing the update check to fail and abort.

After installing 4.1.2, I can no longer fastboot back to 4.1.1 or 4.0.6. They put in some sort of backrev check.

I'm pretty sure you need an unlocked boot loader to downgrade.

I did. It fixed an issue where my phone wasn't booting, but it did not revert me to 4.1.1. Just found your comment in the other thread about modifying the xml file.. I'll try that next. Thanks.

That worked at getting the system apps that I had removed back into the /syste/app directory and now the update appears to be installing... Will let you know if it works.
*UPDATE*
Well that worked like a charm, update installed successfully, root access maintained, cwm allowed me to prevent reflash of stock recovery so all is right with the world... Thanks you guys!

Thank you! I had missing Amazon_IMDb.apk, Facebook.apk, Kindle.apk, PlusOne.apk files. Copied these to my phone and updated successfully!
Hey!
So i've just received the update, and as per instructions i rebooted to install the update. But after rebooting, clockwork recovery appeared with the options of NO, NO, NO, etc, Yes install unknown ZIP, NO, etc. Because i was doing two other things at the moment (and i'm a moron) i've clicked Cancel and rebooted.
So now i'm still on 4.2.2 and when i click on "Check for system update" in setup it says "Up to date"
Am i totally screwed with the OTA update? I'll punch myself in the face if i have to do the update manually and resetup everything on my device <.<''
Thanks!
No, you're not boned. Try this.

With the file from my /cache folder CWM gives Status 7 - Installation aborted. (i've moved the file to my "SD card")
As far as i saw, that might pop up if the ROM is not well done, but that is the file that i got from Google
So... any ideas how shall i proceed?

If you don't want to do a manual update, you can either wait it out - the OTA will come back again eventually - or, you can take a look at system/cache and see the 4.3 update.zip, move it over to your root folder, then go into CWM recovery and install that.

I think it's because you are not using stock kernel. As far as i've gathered from reading here, there is no trouble with custom recovery in general (it seems that sometimes there are issues - mine for example), but otherwise you should be stock: Google's ROM + kernel. If i was in your situation, i would flash the original kernel (you can extract it from the 4.2.2 release image). I'm not sure about multirom, you should research that.
As for my issue, after sleeping on it i think that i'll just wipe and flash the whole 4.3 image. After that i'll setup everything again.
Turns out, that the applications i need to backup data from are not so much, and i figured out where they keep the data i'm interested in. Also i want to see if wiping will help my memory issues (almost full device = slow as hell device).

BACK UP FIRST!!!!! I DO NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY, my device got into X mark, nothing happened.
open the zip file, go to META-INF--> com --> google --> android, copy the updater-script to your desktop, then delete it from the zip archive
open the file on your desktop with notepad
search for "systemui" or what ever your problem is
delete the whole line. starting with "set_progress" ending with "));"
in my situation it was:
"set_progress(0.448070);
assert(apply_patch_check("/system/app/SystemUI.apk", "cca620c865fb91868a3afc70f005c93dc44beb60", "3c7b5c2e77cd9296276f9e7c372f298d1913644a"));"
then search again and you will find another like bellow:

Hey,
Sorry saw that you did a clean re-install already.
I had the same problem as you. What I did was to flash TWRP (unlike CWM it allows you to ignore the verification error) and tried to take the update again. That still failed however, because I apparently had an edited debuggerd file (happens if you use the Stickmount app). I downloaded a stock one from this thread, replaced it in system/bin, and re-flashed 4.3. Finally worked.
I then re-rooted by flashing the latest SuperSU in TWRP.
Are you replacing the 'debuggerd' file within the 4.3 zip update? Or the file on the Nexus 7 before the 4.3 is flashed?
I've tried updating 4.3 using the OTA 4.3 zip & TWRP & my nexus 7 is currenly stuck the the 'X' boot logo.

Hmm ... you are preventing the update of the SystemUI.apk? Even if your modification will work, you will have a 4.3 base system with a 4.2.2 SystemUI running ...
