A few questions to ROM updates

I currently have 4.2.1 rooted with TWRP. I use franco's kernel and now wondered if I can simply update via OTA? From what I read it is possible with TWRP ?
If that is not possible, should I just download the 4.2.2 update from google and flash it with TWRP ? What is the deodoxed 4.2.2 download?
Thanks
Read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2145848 you can find there all answers
So as I have:
root
franco's kernel
TWRP/CWM
Unlocked bootloader
the only way for me to get 4.2.2 is by flashing it via TWRP/CWM ? Will this just update my system or install a new 4.2.2 meaning all my homescreens/Settings/.. are gone ?

first of all you must flash system.img and boot.img to have stock system, after that you can flash update via TWRP/CWM and reroot. That not wipe your data
and where do I get the the boot.img system.img ?
and i push that to my phone via adb/fastboot ?

Restore stock recovery

Hi Guys,
So I'd rooted the Nexus 4 by unlocking the bootloader and flashing the rooted kernel. I didn't flash a custom ROM after that. So what I had was a 4.2.2 Stock ROM with a rooted kernel so I could use the root functions. Now I get a system update notification after it downloads the new stock 4.3 on its own on my phone. But now since I don't have the stock recovery, selecting " Reboot and install update" after the system update downloads just leads me to the CWM recovery and obviously I don't have a custom update.zip to flash.
So my question is..How do I flash back the stock recovery and hence lose root and update to 4.3 without flashing the STOCK ROM back, thereby keeping my existing apps on 4.2.2. intact? So what I wanna do is flash the stock kernel which restores the stock recovery...Let the stock system update itself to 4.3 and then maybe Root the phone again..
Could someone kindly direct me to a solution?
Would appreciate a quick response
Cheers!
There's no way to restore to stock without wiping everything

Download the factory images, you can find stock recovery inside. Flash the recovery.img in bootloader mode.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Kernel and recovery is 2 separated partition in Nexus 4, so flashing kernel won't restore your recovery.

Get the stock image and extract the boot.img from it. Fastboot flash that, fastboot flash boot boot.img

How to flash stock rom

I'm trying to flash the stock rom on my Nexus. When I download it off Google site it's a tgz and when I unzip it it's a tar file n recovery can only flash zip files. Where can I get the stock 4.3 rom in a flashable zip?

Try "TeamAndroid" ROMs in GooManager. They're basically stock without the ability to take OTAs. Just don't let it flash stock recovery. It's either that or fastboot to stock.

How to replace the boot.img in Galaxy S7 Edge

Hi, All
I hope flash replaced boot.img by using the odin.
I downloaded the AP_G935SKSU2ERJ1....tar.md5 from sammobile.com.
Extract AP_G935SKSU2ERJ1....tar.md5 has boot.img.
So unpacked the boot.img in ubuntu, it has ramdisk and kernel(Image_1).
Also I downloaded the kernel source code (SM-G935S_KOR_OO_Opensource.zip)(ver.G935SKSU2ERJ1) from opensource.samsung.com
and I used toolchain(aarch64-linux-android-4.9) in ubuntu to kernel build. so success.
I got the kernel(Image_2) by using the command(make ARCH=arm64).
I repacked that after replace Image_1 and Image_2.
and flashed boot.img by using the odin.
The result is pass, but It doesn't work. stop to boot-logo.
It is the same kernel, but the volume of the Image files were different.
how to flashing replaced boot.img or equlizing the volume of Images.
I want to solve this problem.

Do you have TWRP Recovery? If yes then you can easily flash .img throught TWRP.
You can also flash .img files via ODIN as instructed below
