[Q] GPE S4 - Retrieve JWR66Y OTA zip - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
My Galaxy GPE S4 has the JWR66V to JWR66Y update ready to install. I would like to pull off the update zip. I rooted my device but do not see the update zip any where in /cache. I also downloaded a complete dirwalk of the device but do not see any zip file that might be the update.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

[Q] JWR66Y update

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.

Error updating from 4.3 to 4.4

I'm having difficulties updating from 4.3 to 4.4.
So, bear with me as I am a noob at this stuff, but when I got my Nexus, I rooted and flashed LTE onto the phone. I did not install TWRP, I just did a temporary custom recovery. Now, when I receive the OTA update, it stops around 25% of the way through, with an Error! and the red yield sign and the Android laying on its side.
I reset my phone, however, that didn't do anything. I think I have to undo the LTE before 4.4 can install. Maybe.
Could anyone offer suggestions/help me with this?
Thanks in advance.
To make the OTA update work you have to be unrooted running stock kernel and stock recovery. Otherwise you will get an error when updating OTA. First backup all your files to a computer.
- Download 4.4 custom ROM and flash it via recovery. Make sure to flash the latest boot loader and kernel.
OR
- Download stock 4.4 image file; unzip and run the flash all file. This will wipe everything in your phone and install stock 4.4.
OR
- Download N4 toolkit and flash 4.4 via that.

Nexus 7 4.4.2 update

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?

[Q] How to Manual update the NHA (Android 4.4.4) OTA

I don't get the OTA update on my VZW S5 , even the fact i am on NE9, tried several times to get it via software update from the device - no luck , not working.
so i thought to flash it manually and need the "how to do it" steps.
I found the 4.4.4 OTA zip file.
Can anyone be kind and guide me with the steps how to manual flash it ?
is it done by the loading the zip file to the S5 and flashing from recovery or it should be done via ODIN ? please advise & guide me how to do it.
Currently i am on the NE9 stock - UN rooted
I'm on NGC stock rooted..how would I go about manually updating to the 4.4.4 update.

I managed to upgrade to 4.4.4 by downloading the full firmware instead of the OTA and flashed it via Odin 3.09 and it worked like magic
its was as easy just to download the file from the link below , unzip it and get the md5 file and flash with Odin 3.09
I was on stock, un-rooted , 4.4.2 , NE9 and upgraded to NHA
The full firmware can be found here
