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.

My N10 has Twrp recovery installed and stock 4.3 but earlier on it received a 'minor' 4.3 OTA update. It Rebooted and just went to Twrp and just sat there.
Can someone please tell me how to install this update?
Where is the downloaded firmware update stored and can I install it using Twrp once I've found it?

Others are having the same problem. Have a look on this thread for more info.

Thanks but that's not the problem I'm having. When I ask it to don't he update, it simply reboots to turn, obviously it's expecting to find the stock recovery but it doesn't. I was just wondering if the updated stock room was available so I could just flash it again.
I don't think is anything other than a minor update anyway so I guess I could just ignore it and wait for the next biggie!

Hello guys... I've been searching for it, but I couldn't find.
I'm trying to install cm using the cwm that I found here and it gives me status 7 error every time, while using twrp it installs successfully. So I think it is a cwm version problem.
Could u guys point me the latest one?
It is for i9505 device
Thanks in advance.

Hey guys quick question my n4 is rooted and running cm10.1.3. I never bothered to upgrade to 4.3, so my radio, kernel and bootloader are stock 4.2.2. Is it better to get the ota update and be up on things or flash stock kernel, boot loader and radio for 4.4 when ever there available? Or maybe factory image?

Just flash the stock images for kit Kat when they are available, right now back up all your data

my friend as this will pop up all over the forum the best thing to do is just wait for a rooted version to show up. I did not upgrade my bootloader and I have not had any issues with 4.3 which mind you is a great running OS you should try it.
I dont understand having root then unrooting to flash stock which you obviously dont like since you run cm and then wait to root it all over again to back an upgraded rooted version of cm...

Question on the way for the custom recovery+kernel guys on 4.3 what is the best to upgrade besides wiping your entire phone and flashing the stock images entirely?.
I think i know 2 ways just not sure they are recommended, 1st is flashing stock kernel + returning recovery to stock (should get OTA)
2nd is flashing only the system.img and the bootloader me thinks.
Feel free to verify this.
:good:

You make a lot of sense ,its more of curiosity and so I won't brick my nexus. So I can get away with not upgrading my bootloader for 4.4?
What about kernel, do I need to update that for 4.4 or is that judgement call?

you are asking questions that trial and error are going to figure out for us. Kernels of course if you are on a 4.4 rom you would use a 4.4 kernel. Upgrading your bootloader may or may not be needed but we wont know until kitkat starts popping. everyone said you needed to upgrade bootloader for 4.3 but I have never had any issue at all.... Just wait it out and read read read

Not to sure but as long as you're on stock ROM and stock kernel you should be fine although I don't know if custom recovery keeps you from getting update.

Absolutely bro
You do have to be on stock recovery, stock bootloader for the update to go thru properly otherwise it'll fail.

If you are still on stock rom and you just have custom kernel+recovery, U could do the following for not using any current apps or files.
- Wait till your favorite Toolkit (e.g Wug) get updated for 4.4 and then download the official factory rom.
- Extract it and keep all separate zips, like radio, bootloader,system etc.
- Unroot and flash stock kernel
- Flash all previous zips, EXCEPT user.img which will delete everything
- Reroot and U r ready to flash again custom kernel
Maybe a noob question but my n4 is rooted. Will this cause any problems withe the update?

The original stock kernel of 4.3 is on the bootloader.img on the google source code aye?
Thanks, now we just need to wait for the official 4.4 on google's developers.

Hello,
My phone has already had the radio upgraded to latest so it can run 4.3. I am rooted, have TWRP 2.6.3.0, will I be ok to flash the PA 4.4 and gapps? I keep posts about folks losing their sdcard data and their custom recovery being removed (not sure how!).
Thanks.

I'm sure that radio doesn't affect your ability to flash certain ROMs so you shouldn't have a problem flashing 4.4. As far as losing SD data not sure how that's happening.

So hey guys I've an Asus nexus 7(grouper) with 4.4 ota that's unlocked, rooted with tarp . I used Wigs program to do all of the above.

I am having the same problem with different roms and would be interested in knowing the cause - some work and others fail.
I have had that problem. I had to update TWRP. That fixed it rite up.
