Had a weird problem this morning, I'll give you a quick rundown 1st.
nexus 7 32 gb unit, rooted on 4.1.2, got the ota update to 4.2 kept root
no problem. Got the ota for 4.2.1 again kept root with no problem.
Been running a few days with no problems.
This morning when I woke it got the message google process gapps force close.
rebooted it and the same thing. had an update from the play store but couldn't get in
would just flicker for a sec. every time I hit the play store button.
Had a backup of 4.2 I made just before the update, tried to get into recovery and just
got the android on his back with the red triangle. re-flashed recovery (twrp) flashed my
4.2 backup now everything is fine. Sorry about the long post, just trying to find out why I
lost my gapps and recovery for no reason, didn't change anything or upgrade anything.
Just running stock rooted.
I have the system update for 4.2.1 but I'm not sure if I should update it.
Again, sorry for the long post, just looking for some feedback.
Thanks
Hi,
I have an unrooted, stock Nexus 4. I received the 4.3 update and installed it... but now I keep getting "System update downloaded".
I've tried letting it install a couple of times now but it keeps happening.
I am actually running 4.3. Build number is JWR66V.
Any ideas?
Thanks
So I finally got the 4.3 update. My phone was all ready to install the update so I tapped update and install and started to reboot and install like normal. As it was installed in the stock recovery, all of the sudden it displays the message "error!". Then it reboots back into the same version of android and a few days later, it says it need to update to 4.3 and the cycle starts again. Any one know what is going on? Thanks
I have rooted s5 with xposed framework, system status set to official, now there was update, OTA update didnt work so i started to update by kies, now its stuck at 4% for more than 30 minutes, any advices?
you cannot ota update on rooted device bro.
you have to reflash stock firmware to update.

Ok, thanks, i though it would be enough if i unroot it, cause kies started to upgrade it, seems i was wrong.
[edit] I flashed stock, updated, rerooted and works fine, i didnt lose any data [/edit]
TL;DR - Installed bean's rooted kit kat, new safestrap, and Eclipse ROM 2.0.1. Phone essentially freezes when prompted to shut off or reboot and gets stuck there indefinitely. I also cannot install any apps via the play store reliably from Eclipse.
Hello everyone! I'm fairly new to rooting/flashing roms, and last night I used Bean's rooted kit kat to upgrade my N3 from 4.3 to 4.4. I went with de-odexed because from what I understood it was easier to change themes and whatnot that way (again, forgive me if I'm wrong, still new to all of this). Everything went great, I installed to stock rom slot, Odin detected my phone in DL mode, I installed the new firmware, it updated and loaded all the apps just fine, and I installed the new safestrap.
There was a problem however... Whenever I go to turn off or reboot the phone, the "shutting down" dialogue box comes up and it just gets stuck there. I timed it for about 20 minutes before finally just pulling the battery. It does this everytime I need to reboot the phone and I always have to end up pulling the battery.
EDIT: As of this morning the stock rom appears to no longer be having the reboot issue. My guess is that is just a bug in a Eclipse at this point.
Thinking it might be just a weird bug, I made a partition in ROM slot 2 (ROM slot 1 was where my 4.3 was and I hadn't deleted it yet) and installed Eclipse 2.0.1. When I booted into it and logged into my Google account to recover all my apps like I did just did with the stock rom slot, all the apps que'd up, but nothing showed as installing. I thought that maybe I had kinda just overwhelmed the phone with downloads and went into the play store to stop the que. I started installing about 3 apps at a time to see if it worked better, and I ran into the same issue. Usually when you click "install" on an app, it will show the download process and then start installing to your phone. Mine goes straight to install and gets stuck on an endless loading bar, with no way to cancel or stop it without a reboot.
Rebooting is also having the same issue as before. I cannot shut off or restart the device without it locking into the shutting down dialogue box.
1. Did installing a de-odexed version cause any problems that I wouldn't have had with an odexed?
2. If so, I can follow the same methods I did to install bean's kit kat and reinstall the odexed version? Or would I have to somehow go back to 4.3 first?
3. Are there any other known fixes I should try?

I read your post a couple times and I think you may be using the wrong Safestrap. I could be wrong.
Use stable Safestrap 3.65 for jellybean roms and Safestrap 3.72 or 3.75 for nc2/nc4 roms.
I'm running Eclipse 2.0.1 on Safestrap 3.75 right now and have zero reboot problems.

Yup! This was it. I installed 3.75 and re-flashed. I feel slightly dumb for not thinking of that but I'm so happy to have a functional phone again. Thank you very much!
