Hi folks! I have a Galaxy S4 GPE, rooted and unlocked, but stock otherwise. When I try to run the OTA update for 4.4.3, the phone reboots into TeamWin recovery and appears to start installing. The install errors out though. Can I not install the OTA update because I'm rooted? If so, would reverting the rooting allow me to install? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!
Install Stock recovery and then try again

Is there a thread on how to do that? I seem to remember when I installed this recovery tool to root the phone, it wiped everything. Is it going to do that again? Because I don't want to have to keep wiping my phone every time a new Android update comes out just to be rooted.

I went through that method, and it's essentially the same thing, except that I'm downloading the actual update file myself and not letting Android handle it. Needless to say it didn't work. I also updated my TWRP to 2.7.1.0 and tried; no luck. I also uninstalled SuperSU to see if removing root would help. It didn't.

It's the problem of no read for be vague. It worked perfectly on the GPE of my sister. The update that appears in the website is ready for install it through custom recovery. Read all the guide:
Gave up waiting for Lollipop from LG and went for Marshmallow. Rooted with Kingo root and installed TWRP from terminal emulator. Wiped and formatted /data. Flashed Marshmallow (MDB08M) and SuperSU. Rebooted and installed apps. Everything worked like a dream, no hassles or snags.
So far ROM is stable, smooth and nice to use. Battery life is good. A definite improvment.
I wasn't aware there was a 6.0 ROM. Link please.
Are you on the V500 or V510?
I'm on V500. Link http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-...rom-android-6-0-marshmallow-20151028-t3235794
Good luck!

Thanks! I'll flash later today!
I tried to flash this ROM and I'm having issues with doing that. Anyone knows what am I doing wrong here?
I had CM12.1 from @fefifofum earlier but I wanted to try something Marshmallow based.
I updated TWRP to the most recent stable version (2.8.7.1) and all I got trying to install zip from mentioned thread is:
Error flashing zip '/external_sd/aosp_v500-eng.adrianomartins-20151107.zip'
Updating partition details...
...done
No other errors. I wiped Dalvik Cache, Cache, Data and even System. Nothing has changed.
What else can I try to fix it? Cause in fact right now I've got unusable tablet

Sounds like a bad download. Did you check the MD5 hash of what you downloaded and compared it to what the download page said the original hash was, if it gives that info? Android File Host does, I didn't check where your file came from.
[VK810.4G] [altev] [ViKtory810ROM] official LG G Pad 8.3 Lollipop 36B_00 5.0.2
[VK810.4G] [altev] official LG G Pad 8.3 Lollipop 36B_00 5.0.2 DEBLOAT SCRIPTS and copies of all the files they remove
[VK810.4G] [altev] OTAs, .IMGs and KDZs, oh my
MD5 is correct. I think something went wrong with wipes. Maybe I wiped too much but I'm not sure how to check it.
Maybe current partition layout is broken and needs to be fixed somehow but I'm not sure how to check what's wrong.
Any way to turn on more debugging info during install?
Current message isn't very helpful :/

For what it's worth, I don't think it's possible to wipe too much. At least, in TWRP, I commonly wipe everything: data, cache, dalvik, system, and internal storage with no trouble.

Thanks for confirmation. But then I have no idea why it doesn't flash.
It fails almost instantly so it looks like it gives up at the beginning but file size and its checksum are fine.
What else can I try to do?

Can you post a log from recovery? Go to TWRP's Advanced menu and choose Copy Log to SD Card, then upload it somewhere. Feel free to put it in a zip.
What did you use to check the hash of the file from the phone itself?
What filsystem do you have on /data? I have a vauge recollection from a Lollipop thread that there were problems coming from CM if /data was formatted F2FS
/Hakan
Ok forget the topic. Apparently you can't choose random directory to put your image before flashing.
For some TWRP complains and clearly states that something is wrong (/root if I recall correctly) but for some it just blindly fails (/external_sd or /recovery).
I had to move my image to /sdcard directory and TWRP flashed it with no issues.
Hope that helps someone

High,
You should download the latest edition from that thread. There were some problems with the previous one. Even a second attempt by the OP didn't resolve all issues. The latest MRA58V is stable and complete. Personally however I flashed a more loaded version of the OpenGapps project. Running smooth etc since 20 November... Don't flash the latest SU, but the version before (2.51 ).
Cheers

You can't flash an OTA with TWRP. You need to flash the factory images with fastboot, it's all in my guide:

Go for the latest, which is MHC19I, you'll need to update to TWRP 3.0.0-1 though.

All through fastboot, the radio and bootloader will be updated when you flash the factory images.

In TWRP > Mount > untick and re-tick /data and then try formatting it.
Yip tried tht too... So the phone started back but it's reverted back to its original state... Locked bootloader, unrooted etc...
I can provide full service firmware VNS-L23C605B370 / VNS-L23C605B364 / VNS-L23C605B121
Ok... But can I use any of those tht you've outlined safely, becuz my phone works fine so far but it appears the data partition is damaged. Also the twrp recovery im using is 3.0.1 so I gonna try updating it.
Right... so I've managed to get my phone back up and running by flashing the recovery2, recovery, cust and system files with L23C605B120 instead of B102 as it was. i've also managed to install twrp and rooted it. I've noticed that not any version of twrp works. Only the 3.0.0 version. Now i need help with updating my firmware from B120 to B362 if possible. through the official updater i attempted to install an official update but it kept failing... any suggestions... anyone?

Hello
as I see you can use twrp 3.0.
then, from then b120 MM.
1 bootloader code.
2 installs twrp.
3 go to wipe. check all except SD card.
4 go to install, install update.zip b362 and install update datafull.zip b362.
5 restarts.
here is.

now, for vns-l23c605, there is a firmware b374.
you can install it too.
to do it.
you had to download all the files (full-ota-mf-pv b362+full-ota-mf b374) to your computer and handle them with winzip.

Hi,
I have a S8+, SM-G955F and I cannot have Android Oreo and TWRP (and then root). I only can have Android 7 and TWRP (and then root).
Current situation is: I have Android Oreo, Build G955FXXU1CRB7 is installed. Once I go to Download Mode and flash TWRP, I can boot into TWRP, but my device is not booting into Android anymore. It starts up, shows me the Samsung logo and reboots, then it shows samsung logo again and reboots.
It reboots and reboot and reboots...If I go to TWRP and make a factory reset or format data, it does not help, it only reboots when trying to start Android.
Even if I restore an older backup of boot, systems partition, it does not work...
So what do I do? I flash original Android Oreo firmware once again via Odin and get it back working, but: I loose TWRP again (and cannot flash SuperSU).
Any idea? I would like to have latest Oreo as well as TWRP recovery
Many thanks!

Yes, it was the official one. Just searched the site, but cannot find it anymore. However, flashing the firmware does not need many steps. DOwnload the zip, extract the .tar files in it, open ODIN, load .tar files into Odin and click flash. Then it was flashed and Android was booting again.

I think it was the CSC, but as far as I remember, I also tried the HOME_CSC in the past (not today) but the behaviour was also the same.
As far as I know difference is that with one of these files internal storage is wiped, with the other one it isn't, correct?
But what could this have to do that I get a restart-loop when flashing TWRP? I dont have a problem to flash original firmware, it works. But once I flash TWRP I cannot start Android anymore and have to reflash Android firmware again.

I used exactly that TWRP version today.
The only difference between my steps and the steps mentioned in your mentioned guide is that they use an older Odin version. But I already used different Odin version too
Ok, aynway, I will try it again with this guide tomorrow and will let you know about the result tomorrow. Thx so far

Hi again,
I got an OTA Update this morning, so current build on phone was G955FXXU1CRC7.
I now downloaded the TWRP file you mentioned and followed the guide you mentioned.
TWRP was installed using latest Odin Version 3.13, then I tried to install SuperSU, but this failed, red error messages like failed to mount /data, unable to mount storage.
same for factory reset, does not work. I formated data, it worked. then I installed Super Su, it was possible. then I rebooted device and what shall I say, it booted into Android
Dont know what I did different now, maybe not trying to boot up Android before installing supersu.zip?
However, Now I have latest Oreo with TWRP and phone is rooted
Now I will go on and install xposed framework :good:
Many thanks for your help.
