I have twrp recovery and tried to install the update but the update failed with a Status 7 fail message. What should I do?
I used stock recovery and sideloaded the zip with adb
Then back to cwm recovery.

How do you revert back to stock recovery?

I've tried with stock kernel, but without success...
It gives me an error on the signature; when I try to install without signing verification, it gives me this error:
Failed: apply patch_check ("system/app/chrome.apk" - and two groups of 41 aphanumeric characters-).
Could be due to the fact I've installed all system software updates in the past (gapps and others) into rom using Titanium Backup?
--- update---
After a full backup using CWM, I've flashed stock "system" using Nexus Root Toolkit. Reboot in recovery and applied the JZ054K patch.
New error now... apply patch_check (EMMC: /dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/LNX: and a lot of digits...
I give up!

Go all the way at the bottom of my post. There are two flashable zips. One is for the original the other is for the new kernel.
Just an FYI , you can't flash a boot.IMG like a zip file using cwm or any custom recovery. I use adb for this. You can search for the info on here. There are many posts on it. Hope I helped.

Got odex error
I had my nexus unlocked and rooted using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1741395 so I should have original kernel.
I got an error when trying to update related to BrowserProviderProxy.apk that I had renamed to have android browser working.
Now I can't seem to get it to update again from system updates.
Can I retry using the previously downloaded file? Where does the downloaded file gets stored? I got CWM and can download the image again to install, but I was wondering where does it get stored. Thanks!

Nevermind found it in cache folder. I reapplied after renaming the browserprovider and I got 4.1.2 working fine!
So i just switched from HTC ONE X to the nexus 4 and my version is 4.2 and i just rooted it. I have the system OTA update 4.2.1. Should i take it or is there another way to update my phone to 4.2.1 without OTA?
Do not OTA update once you're already rooted; flash this stock ROM (https://www.dropbox.com/s/syi2vmxh0noi2bv/occam-jop40d-factory-ca7602f0.tgz) and re-root.

That is a tgz file, not a zip. You'll need a PC, 7zip and fastboot.

Yes yes i figured it out
I've been trying to do this without wiping my device. It's still downloading so I haven't seen the contents, but I'm assuming just flash the .img files with fastboot and it won't erase anything? Would the Rootkeeper app work for this?
if you're only rooted, ota will work and would install without issues. it will only fail if you have modified some system files or the recovery. no need to reflash anything except the supersu for root if you don't use rootkeeper
I'm using Franco's kernel and CWM recovery. I have the stock system files, so if I flash those back, how do I go about applying this update? I'm so sick of seeing the update message in my notification bar and do not want to wipe to flash a new ROM.
Edit: I have previously tried flashing the stock boot.img and recovery.img, but trying the update via the notification still failed.

Flash the stock recovery.img and boot.img. You won't lose anything.

Your settings probably also modified the system files. Try flashing that too since you have the stock files. Just don't do userdata so your data is kept intact

why it is not possible to make OTA update on rooted phone?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
I rooted, unlocked bootloader and flashed recovery yesterday then installed the OTA after, had no issues at all. If you are using cwm recovery it re-roots and prevents stock recovery being flashed after the ota is installed.
So am running rooted 4.2.1 at the mo.. And its sick

You can, it's fine and will work as long as you have stock recovery. You might lose root but can easily re-root if necessary.

Hi all. I am trying to sideload KK but getting" E:error in /tmp/update.zip; Status 7; installation aborted system/app/books.apk has unexpected contents" error message.
I thought the download might be corrupted, so I downloaded a second time and get the same result.
Can anyone help? This is really frustrating and disapponting.
Thanks!
Make sure you have the latest custom recovery. I recommend using cwm recovery. Some more info about the device may help. Are you using custom or stock ROM? where did u get the side load from?

Nexus 4 with Titanium Backup and SuperuserSU installed. I got the side load from the link in this post and followed this steps precisely:

Thanks.
I am stock rooted with 4.3.1 JLS36i with latest twrp recovery and ElementalX 1.8 kernel. I have tried OTA, which reboots into twrp where the install fails, adb sideload via twrp's advanced sideload, and install from device directly using zip file on device and twrp. All fail repeatedly with "fail" in a red font. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Try to restore stock kernel before update.
Optional: restore stock recovery

Not really. I use the nexus root kit by wugfesh, it downloads the stock kernel and you can restore it with the toolkit

Good suggestion. Downloading new Wugtresh version now. I have used it but didn't think it would install stock kernel. Which kernel do you use for KitKat?

Well. I installed the stock kernel, but it failed again. I used Tim's sideload method. The twrp error is: "E: error executing updater binary in zip '/data/media..." Twrp cut off the rest of the error message

You need to have stock recovery not TWRP to install ota's normally.

I actually took the OTA kitkat update with twrp, and it updated fine. Lost root but still unlocked.

I recently installed CyanogenMod10 on my phone, and it came with CWM installed. I wanted to replace it with TWRP so I installed goomanager to do an openrecoveryscript. However when it came to rebooting it just launched CWM in recovery instead of TWRP. I installed CWM Rom manager and found that both CWM and TWRP are installed. How do i get rid of one?
I found a similar forum thread however it was with a GS3. I was thinking about using the Nexus4 toolkit but I don't think that is compatible with Cyanogenmod as it is bases its mods on stock builds.
Thanks
You can try flashing twrp with a tool kit

noob question, how do I flash a .img file through CWM? It seems that you can only install Zip files.
I also tried the Mskip toolkit and it said that it cannot open the recovery.img on my phone.

It really shouldn't have taken me this long to find it, easier on my computer.

Of course download the twrp.zip. It says that trwp doesn't work with Kit Kat custom roms, but I have no problems. YMMV.

For future reference, one of the easiest ways to flash .img files is with the app Flashify.
