[Q] System Update

Hey guys,
Whenever there is a new system update on my galaxy s4 (this time, JB4.3), it downloads, and then I click restart and install. Instead of booting normally, it boots into recovery and does nothing. I use TWRP. It launches and does nothing. Then I have to reboot and don't get the update. Does anyone know how to fix this? Now the update won't show up for another week.
Thanks in advance,
Gameriot

By the way I have a Google edition galaxy s4 on AT&T.

? you're getting a 4.3 OTA? im assuming you're running a GE ROM?
what ROM are you running? OTAs never apply when you're running a custom recovery.

You need to return to the stock recovery.

I9500 freeze when enter to camera/gallery/3G

hey guys,
I know that the S4 has a lot of bugs and problems. i had a damaged battery before a month and already replaced to a new one. but now i have other problems.. when i enter to the camera or gallery or browser trough 3G/2G my phone freezes and wont turn on unless i take out the battery and return.
tried to upgrade to the newest build of 4.3 and a few older builds of 4.3 but same thing, none helps.

Kitkat gets stuck sometimes

Hello everyone,
I live in Israel, and recently I got a KitKat update for my N900.
At first, everything was OK, but now, I can see the system stutters from time to time.
I have tried to clear cache but it didn't solve the problem.
I'm not rooted, and on 4.4.2 KitKat, baseband version : N900xxudnb1
build number: N900xxudnc1.
Formatting the phone is not an option for me while I can't backup any app data...
Will appreciate any help!

if you just update from 4.3, AFAIK, factory reset from stock recovery is the best .
but since you don't want to do that, I have no idea.

Thx for the quick reply!
No other way? The app data is really important to me, and it will be much easier for me not to factory reset...
