Hi! I haven't seen any posts about this, and couldn't find any posts either by searching, so I'll ask
I've got an F320S which is rooted. I tried to install a 20MB update, but got "blocked" because of root. I installed custom-recovery in order to try to installing it from there, but with no luck. That resulted in a bootloop. So my question is: How can I update my phone?
Is it also possible to update it to KitKat (if there are any KitKat update for F320S. I've seen it on the internet, so it is available?)
Thanks!

you have a custom recovery installed on your phone, this is why the update fails. the custom recovery is not the same as the stock recovery so the script the update uses to execute the update doesnt work for custom recoveries. you'd have to reinstall the stock recovery to get the update to work. i dont know where you'd get that for the f320s. maybe if there is a guide to go back to complete stock for the f320s then that will also give you back stock recovery. then you can make a copy of the stock recovery image for yourself. also if you have root you can install supersu then go into supersu settings and scroll all the way to the bottom and unroot your device.
I made a backup of the stock recovery before flashing CWM. Wouldn't it be possible to just restore it? I flashed and made a backup with flashify!

I tried to install stock recovery, unroot, and then update, but for some reason, the phone still suspected me for being rooted...

Yes use the new IOROOT15 to root the device. But I have been unsuccessful in flashing any roms, however I did get twrp to work with FreeGee app in the android market.
I appreciate your help very much, thank you

I've been unsuccessful in getting any roms to work. I tried 4.2.2 rom and got lg screen then black, had to restore nand backup from twrp recovery but it was hellish to get into, had to do the hold vol+pwr precisely, almost gave up. So, reverted to a backup just fine.
Next tried to loki_flash recovery 2.6.3.1 (then was going to do them in order-2.6.3.2>2.6.3.3 [have not tried going directly to 2.6.3.3) and was hit with an unsupported aboot error (device mismatch).
So now i'm going to try and use flash tool to revert back to 11A, root, install twrp (I hope this is possible and I don't brick my phone [i'm new to all of this])
Anyone tell me if this is an acceptable option to proceed? Thank's in advance.
Acceptable. KDZ to 11A.
Just wanted to post I was successful using lg flash tool to revert to 11A, rooted, freegee twrp, flashed 2.6.3.3, flashed OSE ROM. Everything is well ATM!

I have a question, I am using LG G2 D802, rooted, using CWM v6.0.4.4. My sister also uses LG G2 D802, she updated her G2 in Kitkat. So I want to get the update also, I opened the Update Center and tried to update, but I can't see the update for kitkat. Only "V10f-DEC-23-2013" appeared on my update list, so I update my G2, and restarted the phone, and stuck on CWM. Resolved this problem by following instructions on the threads here (Thanks to you guys!), but my question is, how can I update to kitkat when I can't get passed updating to V10f-DEC-23-2013 that stucks my phone to CWM boot loop (Tried downloading many times but stucks me up at CWM bootloop)? Anyone out there experienced this kind of problem? Can you guys please suggest me what to do?
you should update on clean stock rom without root and the custom recovery.

What steps should I do?
I used FreeGee to try to install a custom recovery after root. First TWRP, stuck at performing action. Then CWM. Then the older CWM. Always stuck at performing action. The old CWM worked. Reboot to recovery and get security boot error. Looked around on forums and found a CWM batch install that everyone says works for them. Still recovery boot error. Anyone know what's up? I'm on AT&T D800. Rooted by ioroot25
Also RomManager says I have both recoveries installed. Thinking this might be the issue. How do I delete one or both and get on the right track?
I think I have the same problem. Could u solve the problem?

no you can't get recovery on kk because they patched our recovery/loki exploit on kk bootloader

Safest way is to go back to stock 4.2.2 first, then root with IOroot then install recovery.lok

Thanks again for quick help however I have checked the downgrade process and its too long plus I have to download stock 4.2.2 firmware which is 1GB plus in size..
So is there no easy method to install recovery on already rooted stock 4.4.2 firmware?

No, no easy one, and some might even say none at all, but you can read the rooting thread where they discuss recovery as well http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448887
I finally clicked the Install Now button to take the Verizon G2 OTA to Kit Kat.
The phone rebooted and then went into TWRP recovery. Figured out how to get past that using ADB, but when phone boots up it tries to install the OTA, but fails and says:
"Sorry there was a problem updating your LG VS980. No changes where made."
In the Status section of ABOUT, SOFTWARE UPDATE, status shows as Update Failed, with code = 408.
Any ideas on how to fix this failed OTA?
If you want to ota you have to be complete stock no custom recovery(cwm/twrp/philz), no xposed/modules, no mods, nothing modified in the system partition you need to be completely stock to be able to ota

Thanks so much!
I thought I read that but also didn't find a way to go from stock 12b (with Xposed, some minor mods and TWRP) to 24a without a full wipe..
Know of a way? Or post to point me to?

the only way to update is to have an unmodified phone: no custom recovery(or else your phone will bootloop), no mods, no modded system apps, no xposed/modules but if you get the suspected of rooting the only way to ota is to go back to stock with the guide in the general section hoping the ota appears again

yes that is true so you can backup your apps with titanium and then after you get the update and root restore the apps/data

well that may/may not work, the moment you root it triggers a flag in the persist folder and I am not sure if just unrooting removes this flag
