Hello -
I have the original Nexus 7 and was wanting to update to the new JWR66Y release. I am on a stock rooted rom at the moment. Can I just flash a rooted version of this update? And where can I find a recommended rom?
I tried to flash that grouper.zip via TWRP but it fails when I try and flash it. Am I suppoded to try and OTA update, then flash the grouper.zip?
Thanks in advance for you help!!
What was the error? I had to replace the 'debuggerd' file and then flash the grouper.zip in twrp recovery. Then flashed the supersu 1.51 zip to get root back.

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 ?
For the life of me I cant get 4.4.2 to install/boot on my nexus 7 2012 wifi
Wondering if there is a stock rooted zip out there so i can just flash it and be done with it.
Ive:
wiped
locked/unlocked bootloader
flashed the stock image (installs/boots but doesnt start) 'com.google.settings' fails at start.
flashed 4.4 image and tried to update via OTA (fails)
flash 4.4 and tried to sideload the update in stock recovery (failed, unexpected contents in system/google email)
flash 4.4 and tried to install update viz TWRP...failed
running out of ideas. My last hope is a 4,4,2 stock rooted rom i can just flash via twrp. but there doent seem to be one.
found one for my n10/n5, but not my n7 (2012 wifi)
any leads?
As the title says I'm requesting the update to flash it by recovery.
Thanks in advance

You need to flash it via fastboot. You can't flash a stock ota with a custom recovery.

To flash a flashable .zip file you need a Custom Recovery like TWRP. So,
1. Root your phone with IORoot25. - This will give you root.
2. Download and run AutoRec on your phone. - This will downgrade your bootloader to JB and install TWRP.
3. Boot into Recovery Mode (TWRP) and flash your modem.zip. - This will give you a new modem.
Remember to back up your modem before flashing a new one.
Thank you so much.
I am on 5.0.1 rooted with stock ROM and stock kernel. I recently got 5.1 upgrade notification.
After downloading the data and restarting the phone, it started installing updates and after a while it showed "error" and stopped.
Now I m on 5.0.1 with no 5.1 upgrade notice.
What is wrong and what should I do for this?
Thank you.
Do I need to unroot? I am on stock kernel and ROM.

Yes, you need to unroot before you can apply the OTA upgrade. Look for the Nexus Root Toolkit, and it should be able to clean up for you.
But prior I didn't need to unroot to upgrade anytime! To upgrade JB to KK or KK to LP, I didn't unroot before installation.
you need stock recovery to update via OTA
Yeah I was on pure stock. Stock ROM kernel and recovery.
Btw, I unrooted my phone with simply unroot and then OTA update went well.
So now I am on stock 5.1 unrooted.
Thank u all.
i have troubles as well. i unrooted, installed stock recovery (via n4 toolkit) and tryed to install. it takes longer then before but i stell get an error. SuperSU is gone in my app drawer.. any other help?
PS: i am on stock rom 5.0.1
