[Q] Nexus 7 5.0.2 OTA update error - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi xda developers... i have a pretty strange issue which i couldn't find on any other threads.
When the first 5.0 ota update came i really wanted to do an OTA update... BUT because i had the tablet rooted i had to flash the whole system... I realized that 5.0 is not a useable OS so i flashed the system back at 4.4.4 jellybean.
So i waited till the 5.0.2 came and my notification bar told me that the system is ready for the update... I pressed reboot and install and when it was in the installing screen...it stoped at around 20% and then an error appeard.
So i cant install the ota update but i don't know what is the problem...i tried 2 times more and the same...
I have to say that my tablet is not rooted but it's unlocked if that makes a difference.
P.S: I also have the wifi model and the build number is : KTU84P.
p.p.s :Thanks for the attention

didn't look hard enough. look at my response in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3002555
Basically reflash the needed images to bring everything up to the correct baseband and build

Essential system updates for google android - .7924

Heyo everybody! I just got this ota update message: "Essential system updates for google android - .7924"
Not sure what to do. I've had this tablet rooted for a while and I'm worried that updating will wipe out the root. Also, is it safe and/or possible to update the slate 7 extreme to lollipop and root it successfully?
Anyone?
Same here... I crash each time on reboot and have to reflash twrp and restore...
OTA...Update .. OK
I dont really care much for this tablet anymore until Lollipop arrives, like nVidia promised.
I updated in hoping to see Lollipop, but alas only for KIT KAT.
Update worked fine, and since I am on STOCK/NON-ROOTED, no issues whats so ever.
Fixed

I finally managed to install the (kitkat) auto update and retain root status. As with previous updates (which I had forgotten about), I had to extract and modify the update header first, then flash it with TWRP.
Not attempted Lollipop yet.

ME572C getting Lollipop in TW, maybe US getting it soon?

So, if you look at Asus's website, they have released firmware TW_V12.14.1.9 and in the changelog it mentions that "the first boot time after upgrading to Android 5.0" will take 5 mins. So I think that release is Android 5.0. It was released on April 2, 2015 so maybe we can hope to receive an OTA update for WW_V12.14.1.9 sometime within the coming week? I sure hope so!!
do not update if important sound in the headphones, disappeared after updating bass.
Before getting root solution, it's not recommended to update it yet.
OTA released since 12PM CEST, i can confirm that the version of Lollipop is the 5.0.1 WW_V12.14.1.9 which is 779MB in size.
No problem since I updated my tablet except one notification telling me that one application is requesting a newer version of Google Play Services...
Did you have root on tablet before you upgraded the new firmware and if so did you still have root afterwards?

Nop, no root...
Update breaks root. Zenroot failed.

Moreover, you can't apply OTA if you have root AND SD patch applied. Tried to install OTA, but no dice (stumped on platform.xml which was modified).
Thinktank: can you pre-root the ROM and install?
Hi, I've made an OTA update yesterday from .31 rooted version to Lollipop and I've lost root as I've expected. Beside it, tablet is unusable - still cycling messages 'Unfortunately IndexService has stopped' and 'Unfortunately ContextProvider has stopped' . I have to do super-fast double click on these messages and then I have about 0,1 seconds to click some other item before the cycling messages appear again! With this annoying double-clicking process, I've been able to reach "settings" app and make another user account - cycling messages are gone, but when I want to use Chrome, message 'Unfortunately Chrome has stopped' appears and other browser don't work too (Dolphin, Asus Browser, Chrome Beta...).
I've made the factory reset, but messages 'Unfortunately IndexService has stopped' and 'Unfortunately ContextProvider has stopped' still appear and I can't even to pass welcome guide!!!
Tablet is now useless, downgrade doesn't work.
Looks like Asus pulled the Lollipop update for the ME572C from their site.
I checked both the U.S. and Taiwan support sites (www.asus.com/us/Tablets/ASUS_MeMO_Pad_7_ME572C/HelpDesk_Download/ and www.asus.com/tw/Tablets/ASUS_MeMO_Pad_7_ME572C/HelpDesk_Download/). The Lollipop 5.0.1 WW_V12.14.1.9 build that came out in early April 2015 is nowhere to be found.
I hope Asus is going back to fix reported issues and...hopefully...go straight to 5.1 or 5.1.1 with the next update soon.
I checked also and noticed it was pulled after only being posted for a brief time. That is odd. I actually haven't had any issues with mine since updating to the lollipop build and actually have noticed a remarkable inprovement in my tablet since the last update. Of course, I did have to sacrifice my root to go to lollipop, but I was only using root to delete alot of the bloatware since the stock KitKat was slow and stuttered alot when new. It's not like we have an unlocked bootloader to flash custom roms with, so as long as they can make the stock firmware fast and smooth, I'm content to use it. Although, wouldn't it be cool if they pulled it and were gonna release the next update as a 64 bit version to take advantage of the 64 bit processor?

Official Android 5.0 Lollipop. Should I update?

Hi all,
I got a notification on my G2 D802 to update to 5.0 lollipop a while ago but wondering if its safe to do so. I goggled it and found out that some people had some major issues with battery drain and bad wifi performance. Anyway I proceeded to download the LG PC suite to still give it a try however I got this message on startup. " Android 5.0 Lollipop guide
Date : 2014.11.27
For phone or tablet with Android 5.0 Lollipop or later,
phone or tablet will not back up or restore properly due to security on Android.
Refrain from use.
"
Now I am really thinking twice lol.. Can anyone shed some light on this? Is it safe to update? Can anyone did it before can advice me?
Q&A not dev section
Crap. Sorry didnt realize.
It's OK go and update it. But if you are happy with Kitkat then don't update it.
Even i was in same situation but then i went n tried updating using pc suit. Cudnt be successful as it started showing error while downloading multiple times.Any advice?

Hmmm. You tried doing a factory reset before updating?

Got status 7 error on OTA system enhancement update of 89 MB

Hey pals,
Good evening .After a long i'm back. I was rooted and today only i fully unroot my device 820U dual sim. Running lollipop v5.0.2 with software number 2.10.720.1
I was prompted for basically 2 updates for mail and system enhancement 1.99MB both were installed successfully.
After that i got again update for system enhancement of something 89.xx MB update. It was downloaded and i pressed installed as we all do. Stock recovery prompted and installation begin. In a while might be after 10% it threw me status 7 error.
Is anybody experiencing this issue ?
What could be best possible fix ?
Status 7 error in OTA, shall i edit updater script or could something else causing the issue ?
Might be if i am not mistaken then this 89.xx MB update was 2.10.720.4
I'm in official rom and re-locked bootloader.
Please share your views and recommendations.
It might be due to changes that you made to system partition before so unless you flash a lollipop RUU you cant update though ota.(there was a problem like this on my other HTC phone and I was unrooted and on relocked bootloader same as you but I couldnt update untill I flash RUU and started over.)
Can u give the link of lollipop ruu ??

About stock firmware update problem....

Hi, everybody, I'm a note 4 user from Malaysia, had been using it since it first came to the market. When I bought the 1st note 4 of mine, it's black, and from Malaysia Samsung shop. Later my girl friend got a pink one, from a neighboring country, Singapore. Then we both swap it and using it in Malaysia, with Malaysia's telco Sim cards. Recently, my girl friend note 4 (from Malaysia), got some official update for the OS, by OTA, from 5.0.1 to 5.1.1, and the newest is 6.0.1. She did update to 5.1.1, but stay at it and didn't up to 6.0.1 due to a lot of negative comments about it. On the other hand, the note 4 that I'm using(from Singapore), still stuck with 5.0.1, since the day we swapped. I did on the OTA, but I didn't get any notification about update for my phone. I tried to do manual update checking, by going into setting > system > about device > software update > update now, in case I might have miss the notification while I ran out of range of data, but yet I still a get nothing on it,it just show that the firmware had been update to the latest. At first this doesn't bother me much. But nowadays, my phone started to get wacky, and started to get randomly reboot. I was thinking an update to the firmware might help solve the problem. I did went to samfirmware and check out the newest firmware for my phone and I found that there is an update to 5.1.1 for it, so I try using OTA again to try to update but it failed, the result still say my phone is on the latest update, whereas my phone was still on 5.0.1. I wonder what went wrong with it. Here's my question :
1. Why can't my note 4(from Singapore) do an OTA update? Do I really need a Singapore Sim card to do the update?
2. I know how to flash using Odin, but I heard that many people do a factory reset after flashing new firmware, is this really needed? Cause in the old days, I just do simple flashing and straight forward using the phone(android before note 4) with out doing any factory reset after it.
3. How is the newest 6.0.1 getting along with note 4, need some expert opinions on it.
Sorry for the long story and bad English, I'm trying to keep it short and clear so that you can read them clearly and understand my question, thank you for any answer in advance.
