can't update anymore - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently flashed back to stock 4.2, and now I can not update to 4.3 or 4.4. I tried using OTA and flashing through CWM, but no updates will flash. Anyone run into this issue?

Going from ICS NexusBeamHD to Official

I'm running NexusBeam 3.0 on my Nexus S i9020T. I just downloaded official OTA 4.0.3. Now I'm flashing official 2.3.6.
My question is, do I have to unroot before I flash official OTA because its gonna remove root?
If u have cwm it won't flash. U have to flash a pre rooted zip that cwm friendly or go all the way back to stock.

Thank you for that, that worked. I just flashed it so I could do the mf9 update but now when I go to update it, it says "your device is up to date". What..?

Nexus 10 custom recovery, OTA 4.3 update?

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?

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!

Just got the update too here in UK.
I am rooted with twrp recovery. Can I just install this then re-root ? Or will twrp fail to install it. I have no access to my pc to go back to stock first.
Cheers.

It did not affect my recovery, only lost root.
I'm running the Flashed official 4.4 update with the stock kernel and the 4.4 boot loader with TWRP recovery... Would it be safe for me to perform the OTA?

I lost root and TWRP. WugFresh Toolkit brought it all back. Though, could be just a random event, but when it was suppose to boot to the bootloader the second time, it didn't. Had to start the process over. Worked fine after that.

I'm now going to make fun of you for using a toolkit to flash recovery and instal su on a nexus device.

I have no idea. Maybe the touchscreen was fixed because it feels pretty good to me. Before it was a little iffy.

Sideloading Android 4.4.1 KOT49E

I'm trying to sideload the 4.4.1 update to my Nexus 4 but I keep getting the status 7 error. I had the same problem with sideloading from KRT16O to KRT16S, but that was occured by the franco kernel. Flashing the stock kernel fixed that. Right after sideloading KRT16S I tried to flash 4.4.1 but I got the status 7 error again..
I've tried everything; rooted, unrooted, stock recovery, CMW, sideloading, flashing in CWM but all with the same error.. How can I get past this status 7?

Got it from Google's servers. I've read about flashing the boot.img and system.img seperately before flashing the update. Could that work? I'm afraid it won't and I can't find the originals..
Please don't post this in the development section. This belongs in the q and a. For future reference read before posting, I can't stress this enough

No bugs here, except pretty high battery usage. But that status 7 error is really bothering me because I could sideload KRT16S without problems after flashing stock kernel and haven't changed anything since...
Maybe I'll try it. You should list features, bugs, etc in the OP.
