Received the update today but it failed to install. I'm running the stock rom KRT16S. My Nexus 10 is rooted and my recovery is TWRP 2.6.3.1. I have added nothing else to this rom except a few apps from the google play store. I wanted to try again but couldn't find where the OTA is stored. It wasn't in the /cache/fota folder. So I downloaded a flashable zip from the net. But this update file failed to install also. I've seen a few others have success installing the update. I just don't know what's preventing me from updating. I welcome your suggestions. Thanks.
Same here on my Nex5.
It seems, that some custom zips changed my stock (rooted) rom in this way that I am not able to install the 4.4.2 update.
I got similar issue on my Nex4 in the past, I could help me out by flashing full rom (rooted) deodexed, but where can I find the full rom of 4.4.2 for my Nex5 now?
Anybody can give me a clue?
Thank u very much.

Hi Fred, and greetz from Ohio. I'm not aware of anything in the 4.4.2 flavor right now for the Nex10. I'm not sure about the Nex5. I think we're just going to have to wait. But I'd like to have the same thing. A lean & clean deodexed stock rooted 4.4.2 rom with a few performance tweaks. Like the old "Cleanrom" by scrosler. As for right now, did you try an ADB Sideload update to 4.4.2 using Wug's Toolkit? http://www.wugfresh.com/faqs/how-to-update-ota-not-working/

Hi,
You can try performing a full unroot in the SuperSU app if it still doesn't work... I had to adb sideload mine to work, don't know how it works with toolkit, but you have to first set your tablet to receive it. As you are on TWRP you simply go to advanced and select adb sideload, then try using the tool, or following the instructions on it to do so .
You cannot install a OTA zip like a Custom ROM zip, they are a little bit different hehe.
Hope this helps,
~Lord
PS.: This will work for N5 too.
I somehow got the idea that rooted Nexus devices with a custom recovery could handle OTA's without trashing the recovery. I guess I expected that I would lose root. I think I'm just going to wait for someone to put together a "CleanROM" based on 4.4.2 or newer. I've been waiting for a rom like this since I bought my Nex10 anyway. I don't think I'll suffer too much running on 4.4 until then.
Thanks to those who contributed, I'll remember your suggestions. Especially if I end up waiting a long time for a 4.4.2 based Cleanrom.
Update: Thanks to Wug's toolkit. I'm now running 4.4.2..
I should ask for a sticky for this but these instruction will work EVERY TIME if you are running either custom recovery or Root.
You will need the latest adb/fastboot from google, you can either install the SDK or download any of the many smaller adb/fastboot and libs for your os
You will need STOCK 4.4/4.3/4.2 recovery depending on what version of android you are currently on. Download the factory image from here. Open the zip within the package and pull out recovery.img and rename it stockrecovery.img
Copy your custom recovery to the adb folder name it twrp.zip or short name for whatever you are using I am using twrp.
You will need the correct OTA you are seeking to apply - rename it to something short simple and obvious - for this example I will use otaupdate.zip
If you wish to root get the latest patch (I believe its up to 1.75 now) and copy it to the adb/fastboot folder.
BACKUP YOUR DEVICE FIRST AND COPY IT TO YOUR PC
If you are already Rooted:
If you are using SuperSU - go to the application options and completely unroot and reboot if needed
BACKUP YOUR DEVICE FIRST AND COPY IT TO YOUR PC
If not rooted start here:
I am assuming most of you are Windows users. Open your file explorer and open the ADB folder.
On the left hand folder where ADB is located press shift and right click the ADB folder and select "Open command window from here". This will open a command prompt window for you to run all your adb/fastboot commands from. This is the same folder where you copied your recoveries and updates to.
BACKUP YOUR DEVICE FIRST AND COPY IT TO YOUR PC
Copy your custom recovery and stock recovery to your adb folder
Copy and rename the OTA to the adb folder
Copy your root.zip patch to the /sdcard downloads folder (if you wish root)
>adb reboot bootloader
>fastboot flash recovery stockrecovery.img
>fastboot reboot-bootloader
Go into recovery and wait till dead droid appears
Press power and Volume Up at same time to go into the stock recovery menu
Using the volume buttons move and down the blue list of options and select: Apply update from ADB
You will now have orange text at the bottom of the screen - follow the instructions to side load by typing >adb sideload otaupdate.zip in your command prompt window
Wait and watch the progress, at this point you should see the ota processing steps of which there a few and will vary depending on the package. When its complete there will be a "install complete" or similar message
Reboot and let the update complete the system optimizations and go in validate your device is working and the version is what you wanted
>adb reboot bootloader
>fastboot flash twrp.zip
>fastboot reboot-recovery
Using your newly installed custom recovery you can now apply zips/root etc
Reboot as needed and update root if using older .zip to current binaries and enjoy your updated device.
And yes you only need to backup once prior to starting but many people skip that step -DON'T BE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE.
Hopefully I've not missed a bit.
You can also use these same instructions if you're stuck in boot loop or applied a patch without first replacing stock or unrooting - just boot to bootloader using fastboot and replace recovery and apply the patches. This will usually work just fine and prevent much heart ache on your part.
Hello
I have a brand new Samsumg Galaxy S4 but I hate TouchWiz. I want to have the purest Android experience.
I'm a bit new with this phone and haven't used Android in two years now so I'm a bit lost.
What is the latest official Google Play Edition available for my S4? It doesn't have to be Lollipop (although that'd be nice), it can be on KitKat. As long as it's official and untouched (if such a thing exists)
Thank you for your time and help!
I use this rom
It's mostly stock but with a few features added. It has an aroma installer from which you can choose what to install. E.g if you want stock kernel or custom kernel.

Thanks! I'll definitely try it. The only thing is I tried to install TWRP yesterday but the phone started to load it and then stopped. There was a tiny tiny progress color but when I just restarted the phone without completing the process, it worked fine which shows that it didn't even start.
I flashed TWRP using Nandroid manager (from google play) and the img file you get from the twrp site.
That's the only method that worked for me.
TWRP Image
Nandroid Manager
If you're on stock rom, nandroid manager will prompt you to install busybox app from google play (since stock roms don't have busybox). Just download it and install busybox using that app.
Then you can use Nandroid manager to flash that twrp recovery image. Then boot into recovery to make sure it works
Thank you! I've installed TWRP now. I'll continue the tutorial and keep you posted!
Alright it worked! Thanks a bunch!
No problem

no
@túrZö will this work on Nokia version 2.1.0.12
yes, it will,
bt you have to install google services with nokia x2 tools 1st, thn flash it via cwm ,,,,
*follow the steps given avobe
You should not remove phonesky.apk , generally its the playstore app.
is this fix playstore disconnetion after reboot ?? and fix images disappear after updating ??
@Mazikaaa you have to deodex the ROM to fix disconnect issue. Disable self update to fix no image issue. Follow my thread of gapps.

I'm using a deodexd rom and disconnect problem after reboot is still present -_-
Yes I got this problem after deodexing with advanced Nokia x tools and installing gapps by it. So I deodexed myself and flashed my customized gapps package. Now its working fine. Follow this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-x2/general/gapps-flashable-gapps-deodexed-t3177065
And do this in stock ROM, not custom ROMs like nokdroid.
If you flash any gapps in Stock odex rom, then it will give disconnect error after reboot/auto sync error etc. So I am giving you two packages. Flash with custom recovery like cwm/twrp
1. First flash the deodexed_zipaligned_sysApps_framework_NokiaX2ds2.1.0.13flashable.zip
https://yadi.sk/d/nSBRjt5qiQQ7c
2. Then flash the gapps-custom-pico-4.3_signed.zip
https://yadi.sk/d/9NlC8ANFiQQCm
*** deodexed package is for stock version 2.1.0.13. Dont flash it in Custom roms like nokdroid(already deodexed and different system apk folder). Don't flash gapps package in a rom that already includes gapps.
Features:
1. Deodexed
2. Zipaligned
3. Minimal gapps with libs
4. Playstore 4.6.17, location manager(you don't need here maps location manager for network location)
5. No problem for auto sync.
6. No disconnect issue after reboot.
7. No self update of playstore.

Plz someone response if this works in your phone or not. I have only tested it in my ROM.

this works nicely. i tested it in my phone. still no errors and images load nicely :angel:
I'm use advanced Nokia x2 tools for deodex my Nokia stock rom 2.1.0.12 and flash your gapps but when I reboot my device, disconnect reboot still persist. Sorry my bad English
@jmmigo you have to use stock rom 2.1.0.13, and use my deodex package. That'show its working. I haven't tested with stock rom 2.1.0.12.
Thanks for the explanation
sorry but this is the most idiot package at all...why did u make it delet the whole system app file ? u could just replace everything there only....and play store have the same problem ..disconnect after reboot....and yes it s 2.1.0.13
@thebiggboss180, No u cant just replace. The Odex files must be removed, deleting system app folder simplifies the process. Dont know why its not working for you. For me, for the first commenter its working. But, I am waiting for more reviews. Anyway, saying something is idiot doesnt make you smart.
Does the deodex zip file work for 2.1.0.11 or not because I really hate the disconnect issue after reboot
Don't know, just try after taking a backup.
I flashed the deodex file and it work but when I rebooted my phone the play store app disappear
Worked
i dont know what others say.. but it worked for me.. yeh :laugh: :cyclops:
Help I flash this two using cwm, but when I reboot my phone it stuck on updating application. Good thing I have cwm backup

I tried both clean and dirty flash but no sucess ...
I got where the problem is...
system is not being fully extracted . There lacks many folders like priv-app in system partition .
I installed another zip file and noted that every thing is working well the system got fully extracted.
Maybe the problem is in updater-script Hope you can fix it soon
Will it wrk on j200g?

No superuser access
I flashed this custom rom today and i like the new UI. But there is no superuser preinstalled although it said installing superuser when flashing the rom. I also installed supersu later using twrp but it says " Your device is unrooted."
How can i install superuser and gain root access ?

Good day sir. I appreciate your hardwork creating the rom. :good: Will it work on a j200bt rom?
GREAT ROM
Beautiful Rom and fast but the problem i faced was the wifi reconnecting every 2 minutes and cant customize the rom by apps like gravity box ....
battery is friendly and i hope to make update for this vertion of S7 because the S8 Randomly restart without any reason
thanks a lot from my heart .
Rom can be flash in samsung J200GDDUZAQF6
