Error updating to 4.2.2 - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The 4.2.2 update for my Nexus 7 came OTA today, but did not complete due to an unspecified error. Now my N7 says there are no updates available when I have it check, but according to my "About Tablet" screen, I'm still at 4.2.1. I tried manually installing the update, but to no avail.
I'm using ClockworkMod 6.0.2.3 as my recovery tool, and the name of the file I used to attempt to manually update is 6ece895ecb23.signed-nakasi-JDQ39-from-JOP40D.6ece895e.zip. I also attempted a factory reset to start over, but this has been unfruitful as well. Same with installing the 4.2.2 ROM through ROM Manager v5.5.2.1 and downgrading to 4.1.
Results from manual updating through ClockWorkMod Recovery:
Sideload started...

Wow... this hasn't been covered ad nauseum already. You didn't even have to search... there are already multiple current threads in which it is clearly and concisely laid out.
Its because you modified the system. The update is a patch- if any of the files that it must verify before patching are not 100% stock, it will fail. Flash the stock image.

updating nexus 7

Hello guys
I recently unrooted my nexus 7 device because I really want to upgrade to 4.2.1. I tried every possible way. My deice is unrooted, so I tried to update my it from settings, but it goes into custom recovery and saya...
"ClockworkMod Recovery v5.8.4.3

So I said ok, it doesn't work, so I found the most recent update for the nexus 7 and downloaded it, went to custom recovery, found teh file and tried to update it manually.... This is what is said..
"-- Installing: /sdcard/Download/659e6288b87d.signed-n

I guess my question is.. what can I do from here? I really want to update it soon
Just download the firmware direct from Google and flash it using fastboot. Easiest and most reliable method, though you do need an unlocked bootloader.

Can you please explain in detail?
From Google meaning their website? or from settings on the Nexus 7? and what do you meant by a bootloader? which bootloader should I use?
I'm not sure but i think if you want to take ota it might need stock recovery to install and to update manually from custom recovery I think you need the BIG update from 4.1.2 JO??? to 4.2 JO40C as the update from JO40C to 4.2.1 JOP40D is incremental if I'm not mistaken....also you may need to update clockwork mod

Download the update to your device(it's hosted on these boards) reboot your machine into recovery, and install from zip. It's the way many of us update our devices. There was no need to unroot your device. Your OTA failed to install because of the custom recovery you're using.
I'm using 4.2.1
How do u get the screen to not turn off

I've got the same issue.
CWMRecovery says the same thing when I want to update by OTA.
I tried to install manually the ZIP file (/cache) by copying it in my /sdcard with CWMR but I had the same script.
I'm rooted, in 4.2 (logic) with CWMR 6.0.1.9 no touch.
Do I have to restore stock recovery or a sideload flash (or fastboot) would work ?

I am using clockwork recovery. How can I change the recovery?

Follow the above link. It walks you through downloading a factory image from google and using fastboot to install it, regardless of what you may have done to your device. Also, if you are doing this, you can go ahead and use the latest image if you want, which puts you at 4.2.
enjoy. :good:

[Q] Nexus 4 won't upgrade to 4.2.2 in any way

[Q] OTA failed and displayed dead Android saying Error! Tried to sideload the zip file using Toolkit 1.6.8 and it didn't go through. Tried to load it using TWRP and this is what I get:
Code:
Verifying current system...
assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/build.prop". "5a778d005448ec19

I'm running rooted stock ROM, never tried anything else so I don't know how I could have messed up something.
Thanks for any ideas!

Flash a stock rom and install the OTA through adb sideload with adb and not by a toolkit, worked for me. After that reroot. Also read this thread well http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2145848.

Did you try a different kernel in the past? ie Franco's kernel?

No, never. I just wiped the phone and installed stock 4.2.2 using the Toolkit and now it won't boot.
EDIT: I guess that's because the Toolkit doesn't support 4.2.2. Oh well just flashed it using ADB. Hope I can get all my app data back...

I have KRT16S installed, WiFi 16GB model. Thanks!!
Anyone?
You modified your system, especially the settings.apk and due to that the OTA is not working. Flash boot.img and system.img manually (if you need further instructions, you can have a look at my blog) to update your system.

[Q] N7 2012 4.4.3 Update Failing

Hi,
I have a rooted stock Nexus 7 2012, I'm trying to update it to 4.4.3 from 4.4.2 but it keeps failing.
The update downloads, I hit install, it reboots into CWM Recovery, I select the option to install an 'untrusted zip', the update begins and then fails due to the following error:
"/system/app/bluetooth.odex" has unexpected contents.
I've tried flashing the OTA using CWM and forcing the OTA update using Nexus Update Checker and both have failed with the same error.
I'm no longer being prompted for the update either but I'm still on 4.4.2.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Rich

The error message about unexpected contents is a giveaway that you need to flash the 4.4.2 system.img, then you'll be able to flash the OTA.

Ah ok. Will that not screw up my root and also cause problems with some of my apps?

No problem. Apps and data remain. After installing the OTA update, you may lose root but you can get it right back.

Nexus 7 grouper, manual update fails

I have a Nexus 7 (2012, grouper) which so far I have kept on 4.1.2 (JZO54K) using FOTAkill, but now I want to update to 4.2.2. I also have the latest CWM recovery (6.0.4.3).
I plan on applying successively:
094f6629314a.signed-nakasi-JOP40C-from-JZO54K.094f6629.zip
then
659e6288b87d.signed-nakasi-JOP40D-from-JOP40C.659e6288.zip
then
6ece895ecb23.signed-nakasi-JDQ39-from-JOP40D.6ece895e.zip
Using ADB I tried to apply the first update, but it fails. I also tried applying it from /sdcard, but the same thing happens. The error message happens after "verifying current system..." and it consists of:
assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/app/Browser/ProviderProxy.odex", "21a896ab...
E: Error in /data/media/094f6629314a.signed-nakasi-JOP40C-from-JZO54K.094f6629.zip
(status 7)
I tried downloading the zip update again, but it still fails. I downloaded it from http://android.clients.google.com/p...signed-nakasi-JOP40C-from-JZO54K.094f6629.zip
Does the fact that by bootloader is locked have anything to do with this error?
...and the answer is no. Even with bootloader unlocked, the update still fails with the same error.
FWIW I haven"t solved this. Can anyone help me, please?

I don't want android 4.3, 4.4 or 5 on it, I want 4.2.2. I cannot find any factory images for 4.2.2.
(edit) I was looking in the wrong place, I did find a nakasi image for 4.2.2. I will try that.
