[Q] Nexus 4 OTA 4.3 update getting

Sorry for the noob questions but I tried to update my Nexus 4 currently rooted with 4.2.2 and Franco Kernel and I'm getting the error message "Installation Aborted". Do I need to unroot my phone in order to update to the 4.3 OTA?

Everything needs to be stock for the ota update.

Is is possible to go back to stock without losing all my data such as photos, messages, apps etc...?

What else did you change besides rooting it and installing Franco kernel?

Those were the only 2 modifications that I made. Would it possible to sideload 4.3 without having to return back to stock?

To install the ota, you can be rooted, but you have to root again. You have to be on the stock kernel and on stock recovery (for both how-tos can be found in the forums). Hopefully you didn't modification anything on the system ui or deinstalled some of the system apps, if you did you have to reflash a stock image, this can also be done without losing your data(how-to can be found in the forum), but In this case it would be easier to flash a 4.3 directly.
I'm sure you will manage your way. Good luck and happy reading :thumbup:

Franco kernel changes a lot of stuff, so u might get a bootloop. Just find the 4.2.2 stock kernel and flash of, then try to sideload the ota update.

[Q] unlock - root and OTA update

Hello All,
I have question:
if I do unlock and root my nexus 7, but keep the stock ROM, would I get future google OTA update?

Yes, as long as you don't alter critical files like build.prop

Hi exglynco,
Thanks!

[Q] (REQ) (Stock 4.4.2) Stock Nexus 4 lib/soundfx/ files.

I was trying to update my stock rom to 4.4.3 but while I was updating I got an error. "/system/lib/soundfx/libaudiopreprocessing.so" has unexpected contents. I tried removing the file but that didn't help me at all. I think its from flashing DSP onto my device a while ago. I was hoping someone here could upload the stock files so that I can update my device.
Thanks

Just flash the system.img from stock 4.4.2 Rom as also the stock kernel.
