I just get my device today and then rooted it immediately to find out there is an update coming out. I wonder how the OTA is going to do when I'm rooted????

Lollipop checks to see if ANY system files are modified. If yes, it fails. Before, you could just put stock recovery back on and pretty much call it a day. I will just flash the factory image, boot up and take the OTA - then immediately go back into fastboot and put recovery, root and an unencrypted kernel right back on. Lollipop's app restore functionality I kind of like, so I can be back up and running pretty quick.
Or you could try to restore only data through recovery, but that's risky when jumping versions. I won't do it.
P.S. I think any proper Nexus owner should always have the latest stock image downloaded to their computer. If you ever need to save your ass it's just a click away. Plus, come downgrade time you're ready to go when you get off work ?
P.P.S. use Google Remote Desktop and leave your home computer on the developer page. That's what I did on the N5 when our images got released. That puppy was downloaded and ready to go the second I walked in the door.

If you have a custom recovery you'll have to do a system wipe before you can flash the OTA.

Looks like factory images are starting to go up:
"Update: *And just like that, Android 5.0.1 factory images have gone live for a handful of devices, including the Nexus 9, Nexus 7 (2013) WiFi, and Nexus 10. Basically, we are looking at the WiFi devices. *You can grab individual image fileshere."

Agreed.
I can't get ADB to work after unlocking, but fastboot works like a champ and that's all I really use. I use ADB to reboot into BL ? I haven't cared or missed it enough to troubleshoot and fix.
Just refreshed the Dev page and it seems everything recent has been updated, minus the N5/6.
I have faith ?

I agree. I wanted the stock images to test if my device got a bad flash from the factory causing all of the multi touch and freezing issues. I ended up just exchanging at BB and have yet to upgrade to JSS15 in case that is the culprit.

There is no official one but there is an unofficial one, when the TWRP bug got me, it saved my system. It would still be soft-bricked waiting on Google otherwise.

Nope. A factory image contains all the partitions, not just an update zip. Its used mainly to help devices that are completely broken (won't turn on), or people who want to unroot and go back to complete stock.

It is extremely rare to have anything go wrong just unlocking the phone. You might as well go ahead and do it because eventually you will and it'll force a wipe data. Might as well do it now before you install too much stuff.
You can leave root and custom recovery until the images show up if you are concerned about borking your system.

this is what i did, after unlocking and rooting and installing TWRP go into recovery and make a nandroid backup and keep it safe off the device, keep it on the device, so if you need it you can restore it
That's what I'd be do once rooted, but it's the risk of the process failing without the factory image as a backup....
For example, rooting fails, no custom recovery flashed, OS hosed.....
I like having that safety net....

oh i gotcha, but you have your steps out of order. first you unlock the bootloader which doesn't flash anything to your device. then you push the recovery image to your device from your PC using adb. yes this step could go horribly wrong, but if you have everything in place you should be ok. this step is very easy as well, not much to screw up and doesnt take any time at all, none of this does.
then once the recovery is installed, reboot your phone so you know everything comes up fine. then reboot into the recovery and flash SuperSU and voila! you have a rooted phone. boot back into the OS and run an app that requires root (Root Checker is a good one to use as a test) to make sure all is well
i understand your concern, but of all the android devices i have owned, the new nexus has been by far the easiest one of all to root and it is meant to be that way so developers can play with it and customize it and learn from it
plus there's this too

Google has never waited before. The only thing that generally holds up posting factory images are licensing issues. They posted the 4.3 images for the Nexus 4, Nexus 7 (2012), and various Galaxy Nexus devices. There is no reason they didn't post the Nexus 7 images unless it is licensing related.

Android 4.3, automatic & customizable mapping of Shield controls to touchscreen controls, 60fps PC streaming, 1080p HDMI output, and more!
Already updated and can't find release notes online, so unfortunately I can't write them, but suffice to say you need to update NOW.
Does appear to remove root, but that shouldn't be too difficult to rectify.

Neither. I just did a straight update. My Android familiarity is limited and I'm lazy. I figure it will be easy enough to re-root.
I keep getting a signature error during the update install, I've even done a full wipe and then updated again and the same thing. I can't get it installed.

If you are rooted and have removed any apps it would keep you from upgrading.

Yeah has nothing to do with the bootloader... are you running a custom recovery? I'm not and mine worked. I was rooted and unlocked. Lost root, of course... but not sure I even need it now since full games can be moved and with the improved gamepad support.

My apologies. I assumed it was to be done via some backup made during cwm install.
I flashed factory recovery but now when I boot into android (still 4.2.1) and do a "check updates" it says I am up to date. Is there some cache or settings I have to clear for it to recognize that the previous attempt failed so it will allow me to re-download and update again?
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

What did you do to flash back to 4.2.2? That raises a red flag for me as the upgrade to 4.4.2 would have incremented the bootloader version and from what I can determine you can only safely downgrade to 4.4 (Yes I know there is no 4.4 for Rogers)

First I would uninstall xposed or anything like that. Then, I'm assuming you have an unlocked bootloader, so you would need to flash the the 4.2.2 (I assume that is what you are on?) recovery. I'm not sure if having root will do anything. If so, then you need to reflash the stock kernel and then clear the cache and you should be back to stock. Alternatively I think you can also use a tool kit.

Sorry that I can't help with the error and for dragging this topic just a bit off the main course, but I'm curious: Are you saying that you're receiving this as an automatic, OTA, update?
Have others been receiving this OTA too?
thanks,
john

I have an unlocked bootloader and d/l the factory image for 5.1. I extracted the .img files and flashed them with fastboot. Also flashed twrp 2.8.5.1 and supersu 2.46.zip to get root. Everything is working very well and is much snappier than 5.02. You probably have changed something in the /system folder. Flashing the system.img will overwrite whatever is messing up the update.

It was rooted. I unrooted with the option in supersu, then i did a hard reset.

Since 2 days my grouper wlan is showing the notification that the system update android 5.1 is available.
I never did a ota update. I always used a flashable zip via custom recovery. The groupers bootloader is unlocked, rooted, a custom kernel and custom recovery installed. Can I do the update or must I undo all?

Thanks for the info on the new OTA.
My N7, grouper, has always been stock, except for being unlocked/rooted. I've always taken the OTAs in the past just fine. Clearly I don't know about this one.
Based on that history, my guess is that, at the very least, you're going to need to flash the stock kernel and recovery to take this one. Time will tell...
cheers,
john
