Help me please... Nexus 4 update to Kit Kat error

I wiped data and cache.
set_metadata_recursive : some changes failed
E: Error in /tmp/update.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
So I have been researching and find out that the solution would be to upgrade ClockWorkMod Touch to 6.0.4.3. The problem is how to do it? please tell me step by step coz I'm really an amateur. Also I can't access the phone at all (can't go in, can't access the storage)
Please help. Thanks

A detailed guide of how to flash factory images manually. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010312
A more simplified guide of the above but still using ADB. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2527142
An example of how to put all the files in your computer to run above steps. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47084361&postcount=1430
Or, you can search in original android section for toolkits. However, it is best for you to learn how to use ADB rather than only relying on toolkits. It's like how you need to learn to count manually first before you're allowed to use calculator in school. :good:

I have everything working except xposed. Do you use xposed?

I haven't tried xpose yet but I will tonight I already got a back up just incase. Did it boot loop when you flashed expose or did it just say it wasn't installed on the xposed installer.

asking the obvious here. Any word on TMO?

Downloaded the ruu had a few mishaps till I found the seamless-root latest one. HTC desire 626s boost. Gonna try exposed module. Some programs don't recognize the root fully yet. Don't ask or don't detect it.

Just curious how does the notification/settings tab look? Can you screen shot that also. Thanks

:c
I can not update, I get error 155, :crying:

Do you have busybox installed if not make sure you do Busybox is something that you install on your phone to give you some additional handy Linux commands. You need Busy Box installed because some commands are not available to you and you made need them for some root level tasks.
I'm not sure if Busybox is necessary to root, but I don't think so. But many root level apps require busybox, so if you don't install it you're losing some of the benefits of rooting

Busybox is a must. I'm running the version of xposed some recommended in another post for the sprint version work on boost too(framework 79, beta 4 xposed apk). Same company. Was trying custom animations. I believe just the app needed to be updated. All other apps work fine with root permions. 6=0=1 needs debloating. Needs Mordern Jesus.

SWEET, thanks. Was anyone on the stock debloated when they took the update?

Never actually owned a device that became eligible for an upgrade:laugh:

After update
Is anyone else getting force closes on like every game they try after updating and rooting/installing twrp and xposed, and fc on some apps or certain options in apps?

I have the Boost version of the HTC Desire 626s, and running the sprint_stock_626s_1.24.651.2_debloatedV2. I was using TWRP, but after problems today I flashed back to stock recovery, but it did not fix the problem.
Update keeps failing. I let it download, click ok and then it says unzipping file. After a minute or so it jumps to 100% and disappears, then another minute or so and the phone restarts to recovery with the red triangle and !. I press power and volume up to get to the next screen and at the bottom in yellow letters in reads..

Try to flash back Lollipop stock firmware...

Enable Adoptable Storage ?
Like the Zenfone 2 Laser (ZE500KL), Adoptable Storage is disabled by looking at the changelog.
I'm about to buy this phone but I do really need it, I know it's possible to enable it back (with adb, etc) but I want to be sure before.
Can someone who switched to Android Marshmallow try to get it back and tell if they've succeeded on the Zenfone Selfie ?

Already fixed after posting that comment. Now working with CM but no more ASUS stock rom.

Can't flash the ROM on my phone
I already tried to flash this ROM with my phone (Build LRX22G.CN_user_1.13.40.661_20151103044030520_2015052101030030000500001) several times via "apply update via sd card" and as well via adb sideload. Both of them don't work. I also tried to flash different Lollipop stock firmwares (WW_1.12.40.382 and WW_1.15.40.1582), doesn't work either. I always get the errors: "E: failed to verify whole-file signature" and "E: signature verification failed". Can somebody help me?
Edit: I ordered the phone from China, maybe that's why I have this "strange" build number? Is there any possibility to flash Marshmallow on a Chinese phone? In my options menu I don't have any updates option unfortunately

Does anyone have the nougat update file

Hey guys i couldn't get in the beta so i was wondering if anyone has the Nougat update file that i can flash with odin.

Another update pull failed verification and resulted in another footer error. If installed without any modification it works, but after rooting and pulling the update.zip, trying to install it results in an error. It could be a security measure introduced to the update.zip to prevent installing on a phone without the matching signature assigned during the initial download.

Whenever i tried to follow the link it asked me for a security key ????

footer error
I read on another nougat beta thread that if you get a footer error then you should decrypt your SD and try agian

I did not have my SD Card encrypted. I have also noticed some discrepancies between the update.zip I am extracting and the working VZW update.zip. Things like: the boot.img is 0kb, and there are missing CERT.RSA, CERT.SF, or MANIFEST.MF files under META-INF folder.
I have tried extracting it in several different ways\environments and get problems with every pull.
Other variants are working on the same thing with the same issues. I have the last pull I made, but I can't continue working on this as heavily since I'm using my daily driver. I'll try again as new info\solutions come up.

Seems like getting root (with current methods) may be disturbing the file structure. There may be something else at play here since all the pulls still come with a boot.img that is 0kb, and are missing CERT.RSA, CERT.SF, or MANIFEST.MF files under META-INF folder.
Here is the link to the WIP update.zip. I'm going to stop working on this until someone can suggest a better way to root or pull the file without it coming out corrupt\incomplete. Good luck!

Here is the flashing method used by the VZW folks:

Thanks @jrkruse for finding this method!
1. reboot to download mode (power + volume up +home) and make sure phone says Official under system and binary.
2. If it does not then you must odin the PH1 firmware, use the pit file and the full csc not the home csc file
3. go through setup
4. enable developer options
5. turn OEM unlock off
6. enable USB debugging
7. place Update.zip on Ext sd card in folder named fota
8. power off phone
9. reboot to download mode make sure both system and binary are official.
10. reboot to recovery (Power + volume down + home)
11. choose apply Update.zip from SD card
12. find Update.zip in the fota folder you created on your Ext sdcard
13. click yes to apply
After this it should update to the Android 7.0 beta and hopefully will be able to download future beta OTAs.
You will not lose anything as this is an OTA
You do not want to be rooted. You must be stock for this to work!
There is no gear VR available on the beta.
Troubleshooting:
"E: footer is wrong" followed by "E: signature verification failed" : Decrypt SD Card and try again.

Ideally it should. However, I have not been able to successfully reproduce the same results as installing the update file without modification.

This is for the SM-G930P regular S7 (not edge). I have pulled it via filemanager app after full root, and via adb on linux and windows after eng kernel root and full root. All of them yielded an apropriately sized update.zip, but it seems to get corrupted during the rooting or extraction process.
Also, there may be a reason behind our update.zip not having a boot.img. We may not need a new boot.img after updating to PJ2, so it isnt packaged in our update. If someone can repackage the update.zip so it passes verification we may have more luck.

Getting error 7 upon flashing custom rom

Good morning everyone,
I was finally able to get out of my previous situation (bricked phone) thanks to your help, i can now fully load my phone (Samsung Galaxy A5 SM-A500FU).
I wanted to go back to modding right again cause i really dislike the samsung software (i actually have stock 6.0.1 firmware).
I flashed TWRP 3.0.2 with odin, and then tried to flash Cyanogenmod 13 taken from the proper thread. Tried to flash it, got error 7. I try to get information on that error and discovered it should be about rom version not right for my model. I was already sure i was trying to flash the correct rom, but i downloaded it again to be 100% sure. same error. Followed a guide who told me to edit some script file and remove some text lines, did it. Still error 7. Tried to flash with that "signature option" unselected. Still error 7.
Also tried to flash Cyanogenmod 12. something for my device, still error 7.
Do you have any clue on how to get out from this situation? maybe trying a different recovery?
I never had this kind of error, and i flashed dozens of time on multiple devices
Thank you in advance as always for your patience

If i'm right error it's caused by broked signature in zip cuz u edited for skip devicename assert. So u need to sign again the zip or delete all files in "rom.zip/META-INF", only files! No the "com" folder.
And r u doing a factory reset before install?
