OTA update with root - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I'm currently on D80220b-466-92. Recently got a notification about a software update. Should be D80220c in update, I know some person who did update and got that new version (we bought our devices in the same place).
But I've rooted my device and OTA failed for me with some error code. On rebooting I've got a message that my device is rooted and OTA won't work there.
Right, so I've removed any modification: host from AdAway, adabbeb camera and player mod, SuperSu full deinstalliation from it settings.
Did reboot, kick off OTA downloads again and it failed for me again.
So, is that possible to do that or should I fully reflash my device on stock firmware.
There should be some checks that OTA update script are checking, and needs to find that.

[Q] Unable to sideload stock OTA 4.3 JWR66Y from JWR66V - set_perm Status 7

I have a new tab that I manually updated via fastboot to 4.3 JWR66V. It is unlocked and rooted, but does not have a custom recovery or anything else unusual on it.
I received a notification of an OTA update and found that JWR66Y has been released. When I tried to run the OTA update, it just left me at the "No Command" prompt, so I downloaded the zip 847b52d071443031e1addb3a54c4df75d29037ae.signed-mantaray-JWR66Y-from-JWR66V.847b52d0.zip and tried to use adb sideload to upgrade.
The sideload starts, but after a short while, it errors out with the following:
set_perm some changes failed
error in /tmp/update.zip
(Status 7)
Does anyone know what might be going on here? I was trying to keep the device clean and close enough to stock that I'd be able to easily upgrade OTA or at the very least with adb sideload, but I'd obviously prefer to keep root so I can use things like Titanium and such.

With mine I installed TWRP to install the OTA, went good. And then I flashed Stock Recovery again .

The problem is because of root. You have to unroot (scroll all the way down through the SuperSu settings and do a full unroot), then apply the OTA, and re-root.

That's correct, after unrooting the device, the update installed successfully. Thanks.
Further follow-up for future readers.
There was a recent update to SuperSU that indicated in the changelog it fixed a problem with root blocking OTA upgrades. I received a new OTA offer this weekend, and it was able to apply with no problem despite still being rooted with the latest SuperSU.
Thank you very much for the assistance all.

Hi, i had the same error when trying to update to kitkat via ADB sideload OTA update. The problem was in the file "/system/bin/debuggerd", which was changed by SuperSu and may be by Stickmount. Update reported Error 7 while checking system.
So i replaced file "debuggerd" using root explorer with the unchanged version from factory image of JWR66Y and then uninstalled SuperSu (because it continued to change this file after reboot).
After that OTA update was applied successfully.

[Q] ERROR OTA Update

Hi,
I'm getting an error message in the OTA update inside stock revovery. When I tried to boot my device, it said no command. Few minutes later, the device booted normally, but running the software before the update. How can I fix this issue so I can OTA update?
Thanks!

I recently had a similar problem, in my case due to forgetting to uninstall Xposed Framework before the OTA (details here).
I solved it by manually installing the OTA (as described here, scenario 1), which allowed me to see the exact error which was preventing the installation (in my case "assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/bin/app_process"..."), then correcting the error (uninstalling Xposed Framework) and manually installing the OTA once again (successfully this time).
Hope it helps.
Cheers,

Are you rooted? If so, update will fail- need to unroot first.

[Q] How to Unroot LG G2

I recently upgraded my Korean LG G2(F320L) to lollipop and rooted it. But when I am trying to install a software update, it shows an error code.
It says that the device is suspected to be rooted and the update isn't available for rooted devices.
Can anyone tell me how to unroot my device??
Thanks
ME also
i also update my F320L but suddenly there was a recent prompt that updates are available for my LG but when i tried to install the updates that i download using OTA i was prompt that rooted device cannot install updates..
Tried to Unroot the device using SuperSU. SuperSU got un-installed and Titanium Backup showed that the device is not rooted anymore.
But when I tried to update the device via OTA, same error message again.
Can't figure out what to do.

Android 6.0 Update TWRP Kicks In

Hi,
I'm using HTC ONE M9+, today finally HTC released 6.0 Update for M9+,my hpne downloading update without any problem when i click to Install Now it says Rebooting and after reboot TWRP Kicks in and does nothing.Is there any way to disable TWRP to install this new update ?
Flash back the corresponding "stock" recovery.
You must also have an unmodified system to apply the OTA successfully.
i've flashed "recovery_verified.img__TW_1.90.709.3" now TWRp disabled but during update (at %23) it says OTA failed, my OTA is TW, according to error message i need europe's OTA which i couldn't find on internet
i actually have the same issue i have tried copying the ota and tried flashing through adb but it shows that error executing updater binary zip file and errror flashing the device
im running L 5.0.1 and want to update to m 6.0.1 through ota
i have unlocked bootloader but s-on .how to flash the otp? thanks in advance
MIracles happen! Is there anyone that have already made the update and can tell if the sense it's still there or if HTC have removed everything like in the HTC 10?
i think i can update my phone to 6.0 if i can find Europe OTA, i've searched everywhere but i couldn't find it
even i have downloaded the update but cant install as i have system partition modified...i ve searched for a ruu or stock rom but couldnt find anywhere...however i do have the Indian OTA update.
did anyone managed to install 6.0 update yet ?
