Hello,
When 4.3 was out, @dalingrin made a flashable zip (for TWRP/CWM) from factory image of 4.3 + root and busybox.
Is there something like that for 4.4?
Meaning, 4.4 OS that comes with root and busybox, that can be flashed directly from recovery?
Thanks
Anyone...?
Is there a flashable zip of 4.4 to flash using TWRP?

Not that I have seen. Can't figure out why either.
I bit the bullet and sideloaded it. Wasn't that bad but would much prefer a flashable zip.

Hi, I have a rooted Nexus S 4G with the stock rom but a different kernel and CWM recovery. I have received the OTA update for ICS but can't install it. I was wondering what I can do to go back to stock kernel and stock recovery to install the OTA update so I don't have to wipe all my data and worry about that.
Is it possible? Where are the stock kernel files and how do I do the recovery?
Thanks.
Nooooooooooooo
Could you please provide a working link?

Download these files:
2.3.5 Full ROM
2.3.7 Incremental Update.
4.0.4 Incremental Update (If you already got the update notification, you can copy this from /cache to the sdcard.)
Superuser.
Recovery Saver.
Flash the zips in this order:
504d...
2e8d...
TAMkDR3z
Superuser
Leave_the_twrp_alone
This will not work in twrp recovery 2.1. Use twrp 2.0 or earlier, or clockworkmod.
Protip: Some root apps requireBusyBox.
Hi all,
I'll be getting the S4 very soon (don't have it quite yet), but want to be ready.
Can someone point me to CWM 6.0.3.2 in an ODIN flashable file? I see the IMG here, but don't think IMGs are ODIN flashable, correct?

I'm not sure about Odin, but I always install CWM through RomManager in the play store. It's much more hassle free, and all you need is a rooted phone.

But these are ZIPs. Can I flash this with Odin for Windows?
Why don't you just use the zip ?

Well, I can't use the ZIP because I am not yet rooted. I'm sure the answers are around here somewhere... but the easiest way I find to root (and unroot) is to flash a rooted kernel or ROM from Odin...
Got it. CF Root and ROM Manager... Now, to pick out a ROM.... I don't suppose Cyanogenmod is ready for daily use is it?
Easiest thing to.not get confused. Is to root your phone. Download goo manager from the play store and install twrp then flash the cwm touch zip.

Has anyone out there created a flashable CWM zip file of the new Manta 4.3 bootloader?

Thanks. I see the new bootloader image, but not a flashable .zip. Unfortunately I don't have access to a computer to flash via fastboot :-/

You are not looking hard enough. The first two sets of links are for the 4.3 zip one odexed and one deodexed, each has two mirror links. These are both before the bootloader download links which you do not need.
I downloaded and successfully installed through TWRP 2.5.x the deodexed version over rooted stock 4.2.2 without loosing any data or settings.
A couple of notes:
1) Download the SuperSu zip before flashing the 4.3 zip.
2) Make sure you take a full TWRP backup before flashing anything.
3) If you have Superuser installed remove it before flashing as it will no longer work with 4.3 (at least not as of Jul 25th)
4) When flashing 4.3 you can also add the SuperSu (4.3 compatible version) to the flash list. That makes life a little easier if you have existing apps that request root access. Make sure that it is flashed after 4.3
4.3 compatible SuperSu download link:

The download link which is down the page a ways has been verified by the author to work with an N10. Also his comments about Titanium Backups are worth reading.
Good luck.

And you're not reading hard enough. The OP's looking for a zip of the MD03 bootloader, not the ROM. To answer the OP, I don't think anyone has made a zip of the BL.

Zip is available here. I've already used it to update my Nexus 10 and I've already rooted with SuperSU 1.43. Works great.

I was able to solve my problem. Posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44025620
Would still be nice to have a flashable zip of the new bootloader for the community though
Used Nexus Root Toolkit and an .IMG file of the bootloader, but it definitely wasn't as time friendly as the cwm.zip on the N4. Though that can be put down to looking for a .zip file for the N10 all night.
I just received the OTA update of 4.4.2 so I wanted to know what exactly I have to do to update without any errors. I'm Rooted on Stock 4.4 with unlocked Bootloader and Custom Recovery TWRP and also I have the LTE hack enabled. Do I just fastboot flash stock recovery and let it update through OTA or do I have to push the original build.prop from 4.4 too because of the LTE hack? I really don't want to factory reset because I had to do that before in order to update from 4.3 to 4.4. Thanks in advance guys.

I literally just flashed from 4.4 to 4.4.2 by flashing the entire factory image. I didn't lose any data. Same boat as you, rooted and using TWRP with LTE hack.

Downloaded the 435mb OCCAM KOT49H factory image from google? Then you put the entire .zip on the sdcard and flash it through twrp? Is that it?
I'm rooted and have twrp also, but i don't know if i can just flash the full factory image. I want to be stock and rooted!
Thank you!
EDIT: Sorry, i have found the solution in here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2145848
I didn't know you could download these files and use them as "manual OTA update"..
Thanks again

Just system.img

Hello,
I have TWRP 2.5 and I use GooManager to install new version, it downloads it, tells me new version is installed. I reboot manually into recovery and it still shows as 2.5. How do I flash 2.6 properly or what am I doing wrong? I can see GooManager downloads some *.IMG file on file system. I can not locate it though and also am I supposed to install that one manually from recovery itself?
Goo manager sucks balls. You can look around on your internal sd for the zip it downloaded or you can go to the s4 twrp thread and someone posted zips to flash in recovery in the last few threads.
Google is your friend
File which was downloaded is IMG file, TWRP can not flash it. I don't see any threads with flashable recovery. All recovery threads advise to user goo manager including official site of TWRP
Sent from my SGH-I337 using Tapatalk
TWRP site has the img file to download. They also give instructions on how to flash using console emulator or through adb on a pc. Make sure to type it correctly as if done improperly can result in a brick.
Why do you want 2.6
2.5.0.2 has been flawless on ALL roms for me
Google i337 twrp 2.6.3.2 xda. Flash that in your current recovery
PS, ditch goo manager

2.6.3.2? I can't find that version for our phone. I found 2.6.3.1 but no CWM flashable version. Best I found was http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2447423 which is 2.6.3.0 which would probably allow replacing the recovery image with a newer image.
