But then I would have to download the full system image for 4.4.2, right?

[Q] Updating Error - Rooted Nexus 7

Hi all, i've been trying to update my nexus 7 from 4.1.2 (JZO54k) to 4.2 (JOP40C), i had rooted my device with the toolkit from wugfresh, even when ota update keeps appearing, when i tried to do it, the instalation stops and appears the red triangle error. I tried to do it with the ADB method, but when the package is sendind from the ABD to the nexus, it appears
verifyng current system...
assert failed: apply_patch_check ("/system/app/GooglePinyinIME.apk". "c3fd85ab52cd139b4d8440a6b06623451aa46210". "737423314e1a53013fb0c5f7568fb2f9998abdcf")
Installation aborted.
What can I do?
It does this because you'll modified or deleted system files. The OTA will not flash if you aren't stock.
You can always just download the stock image from Google and fastboot flash it.

You used the toolkit to root, just use it to return to stock. Download the latest version and just click return to stock

afaik yes, Another thing you could do is look around for a cwm flashable variant of the latest google rom, that or it's time to go to a custom rom

Buddy, i'm doing the flashstock with the wugfresh toolkit, but its taking too much time with the "Sending 'system'" step, is it normal? it has been like a half an hour since this step start.

Ota update keeps failing

Can't install 4.2.2 ota and from what I have read its because I have custom recovery? How do I go back to stock recovery or is there a flashable stock 4.2.2 update I can use ?

Use fastboot and the recovery image available through a link in that thread to go back to the stock recovery.
Or you could simply flash 4.2.2 through your recovery;

Yes, the custom recovery is what's causing the OTA self installation to fail. You must download the update to your phone, boot into twrp or cwm, and install the update zip.

Using a toolkit is most likely the reason why the OP doesn't know how to flash recovery. Using a toolkit again would continue the cycle...

fastboot flash a recovery, and you could load a custom rom. twrp recovery has an option to push files to your phone with adb. you can push a rom to your phone then flash it in your recovery. or you can flash the stock image via fastboot http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183555

Thanx Bro. My nexus is up and running now..
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Today I tried fastboot and flash 4.3 stock rom on my nexus 4, root and stock rom.
For some reason the zip on "sdcard" is failing (error 7 code strange as it was full stock) letting me a stuck google boot.
I tried to wipe cache without success.
I am sure the solution is somewhere here as already said in that topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183555
But what line should I follow first? Ideally I would like to flash 4.3 or 4.2.2 without factory reset.
Any advice?
Is your boot loader unlocked?? If yes you won't loose any data if you follow the above procedure.. But if not, I think the chances of saving data are low. You can install 4.3 directly if you have the files. I updated mine yesterday using the same method.. I was on slimbeam..

If you are unlocked, try this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010312
Download 4.3 factory image from here https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/takju-jwr66v-factory-c2ef855e.tgz.
Hopefully this should help.

I have been reading and applying more carrefully http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010312 without D10. It is well writen and it is looking to be a safe and efficient to me. I even started by installing 4.2.2 again, then backup then 4.3 with the same method.
4.3 up running and rooted!
No data loss, some stuff learnt and a new backup!
If a new OTA is popping up I will look for the same method.

Flash stock recovery?

Hello! I have TWRP installed on my device without root or custom rom/kernel. Is there a way I can just flash the stock recovery to get future OTA updates? I prefer using a method that doesnt require admin rights on my pc, because I am not using my own pc for the moment.
You can get the factory image, extract ALL the zips and when you find the recovery image do "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img".

That's the problem. Efrant says you have to use 7zip and not any other thing to extract the image, but I cant install it because I dont have admin rights on this pc.
You can use Flashify from Play Store to flash recovery images without PC.

Yeah, it totally worked. Also locked bootloader using BootUnlocker app.
Got some piece of mind and I also hope this will ease up my ORD a bit
I may easily restore my backed up custom recovery using flashify if I ever need to update ROM or whatever...

Thanks! It's the one for 4.3 right?
And if I want to install a custom rom, and make a twrp backup. Can I then go back to restore the backup and then just flash this recovery in fastboot to get the OTA?

Yes, yes and yes.
You can use Flashify to make a backup, restore and flash.
Remember you can only flash 3 times a day unless you pay for the full version.

No I mean making a backup in twrp, install a custom rom. New version of android comes out: (let's say 5.0 because updating CM for example from 4.3. to 4.3.1 isnt that hard I think), just restore the backup and flash this recovery in fastboot. (without flashify)
Then I will get the OTA?

Ok thanks (I ran out of thanks for today)
I think I am going to stay with this TWRP for a while (actually I want CM official nightlies back) and will try this method when KLP comes out. I think I will have my pc back then and will be able to pull the recovery of the image then and I will post if it worked or not!
thank you for your effort mate!

I decided to flash the stock recovery anyway. So now I am fully stock and will get future OTA updates? I actually like the stock rom, but will maybe fllash CM10.2 if nemesis comes with some cool stuff.
Thanks for pulling it for me!

Question on returning to stock

Hello wonderful XDA Peoples. I am planning on returning my Nexus 4 in the near future as part of T-Mobile Jump. I'm currently on a stock ROM; but unlocked with CWM recovery installed.
To return to stock, would I need to fastboot the entire stalk image (via flash all.bat) or would I just need to flash the stock recovery image, then relock the boot loader? Thanks guys! Keep up the absolutely spectacular work.

You could just flash the recovery.img and then re-lock it

on the nexus 4 rom,kernel .... index there is a stock recovery flasher, if you dont wanna use the pc
if you have root you can lock bootloader via an app
or else just via pc.
