[SOLVED] OTA keeps trying to push an update... will it cause issues?

Hi,
I am currently running:
Android Version: 3.1
Kernel Version: 2.6.36.3
Build Number: Acer_A500_4.010.11_COM_GEN2
The system wants me to update to 4.010.13 (says it is a 14.49mb file); I am rooted now... anyone experience any issues with letting this update happen?
*** Update ***
I figured out how to resolve this issue; maybe my findings will help others as well. This solution assumes you are rooted and are running Acer Recovery Installer.
Launch Acer Recovery Installer
Click "Stock USA #.###.##_???_??? recovery (Substitute # and ? with whatever yours says)
Click "Install Recovery Image"
Let it backup current Recovery Image if it asks!
Once the recovery image is back to stock close Acer Recovery Installer
Launch Settings
Select "About Tablet"
Select "System Update"
Select "Check Now"
Download update
Install Now
Once downloaded the system will reboot into recovery, install the update and reboot (BE PATIENT IT WILL TAKE A FEW MINUTES! DO NOT REBOOT MANUALLY!!!!!!)
Once the system reboots you will see several dialogue boxes that says different aspects were successful
Now that all of that is finished launch Acer Recovery Installer again
Select "Restore previously backed-up recovery image
When that completes... you are ready to work again!
I believe that update will not effect anything.
Or very little.

I tried to let it update; it downloads fine... however it fails when it tries to apply the update.
Are you running Clockworkmod or stock recovery? I don't think the OTA update will work with anything but stock recovery.

If you do not already have Acer Recovery Installer; download and install it from the market. You should be able to install stock recovery using that app!

Incremental Update OTA

There is an incremental update of 73 mb whith some sccurity and proximity sensor updates.
But i am getting error status 7 while updated through recovery.
i am using philz ercovery.
Kindly guide.
How come you got this update. Which firmware are u on..?? XNPH520 or lower. And you cannot flash this on Philz recovery. U need to be on locked bootloader nd stock recovery i suppose. Or wait till someone creates a cwm flashable zip of this incremental update and then u can directly flash this in any recovery - cwm, twrp or philz.
But unitl then u cant flash this bro. sorry..

[Guide] Flash OTAs with TWRP (OS 2.1.3/ 005)

Firstly, you cannot install OTA's with TWRP. You'll have to get back to stock recovery in order to install patches.
Thanks to @eng.stk, with the recovery compiled from source, we now can flash OTA Zips from TWRP.
Download TWRP 2.8.7.0: http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=15364
Download the following OTA's and move them to internal/external storage and proceed to install them from TWRP.
OxygenOS_X_Rom.zip (003)
OTA Patch 003-004.zip
OTA Patch 004-005.zip (Uploaded by @Razertje)

It's most likely that you tampered the system and recovery partition. I uploaded the stock recovery here, flash the stock recovery, then flash to system dump, then this patch.
Well, i did a nandroid backup before getting rooted, i tried to restore my phone so i could properly do the ota, but now there is no OS installed
But my computer still detect my phone, where can i download the full rom please ?

By flashing the system dump I meant, install this zip package http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/general/ota003all20151024193-oxygenos-ota-dump-t3244996. This zip package is stock system dump bearing version 03. Then flash to 03-04 patch.
is this OTA solved the problem with microsd cards?
Can anybody help with a generic error trying to flash the stock recovery again?
No reason why just says failed. I am rooted with TWRP and trying to revert to stock to be able to OTA. Last android was a nexus 4 and been away a little while so I may be missing something.. I don't want to have to wipe all my data and such can somebody assist and refresh my understanding?
Dizzyrul3z: No, microSD card issue remains according to official forum--next OTA I bet.
I'm rooted, TWRP also errored when I attempted the OTA installed.
So to clarify, using TWRP I want to install three zips: stock rom, OTA03 (system dump), and OTA04 (update), wipe cache/dalvik. Correct?
Question: I install them all at once in TWRP, right? Will any of this erase my apps/data?
Thanks,

You need to flash to Stock recovery as well. I'll be updating the OP.
So this update is newer than the one mentioned here right ? : https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/oxygenos-2-1-2-will-start-roll-out-to-oneplus-x-today.402637/

Instructions:
1. Switch to Stock Recovery if you're running TWRP. But how to do it? Restore this backup from TWRP.
2. Flash the system dump available at this thread.
3. Now flash this update/patch.
4. Then fastboot flash TWRP recovery if you only need it.
Just my 2 cents, boot TWRP instead of flashing it. I personally suggest.
Code:
fastboot boot twrp_directory_of_your_pc.img
PSA: You'll need Stock recovery to patch official updates.
PS: My Memory Card is working exceptionally fine. I am using a Samsung EVO+ 32GB.

I can't restore the stock recovery.
in TWRP:
error flashing zip '/sdcard/*/oneplusx_x_stock_recovery.zip'
I also copied the zip into the TWRP backup folder, but can't select it to restore.
TWRP ist v.2.8.7.0
What am I doing wrong?
...rebooting the device from TWRP is also not working, anybody with the same problem?

Thank you for the update OP.

Thanks. I couldn't find it, so I updated and now I lost root...
Strange isse, before OTA update (I have stock recovery) I wanted to NAND backup through TWRP boot, but phone wasn't found by fastboot neither adb... So I updated without backupping. Now too phone isn't found by fastboot, so I cannot neither root!
USB debug is on like always, I already tried to disable and enable again, but no way

How to update firmware if you've already flashed TWRP

I figured out how to update after flashing twrp. Maybe obvious to some but I've seen questions about it.
The zip in the "Convert CA to WW" thread has the stock rom in a zip file. Open it and inside is a recovery.img file in it, extract it to your adb folder on your PC.
Download the firmware update from ASUS official site and save to the root of your sd card or internal storage (it will recognize both.)
Reboot into fastboot on your device.
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
When that finishes reboot and your phone should find the update and ask if you want to install. Do so. You may need to power cycle first.
When you're done you can reflash TWRP.
Once you have TWRP you can flash Magisk or SuperSU as you see fit.
It's painless.
An old post from you, but thank you. This was really easy. I've spent 2 days trying to figure out how to upgrade without restore stock rom, boot etc. and lose all data. I was about to give up when I saw this post, I didn't expect it to work - to easy. But I could give it a try.
This was painless.
Then it took me 3 hours to figure out how to reinstall twrp again, it wasn't just to flash and reboot I had to boot directly into recovery after flash. But that is another story.
Thanks, you just saved me some time!

Thanks, man.
Can I manually update with the recovery by downloading the rom?
I think, the FOTA won't arrive as I've rooted my phone.

When you flash stock recovery and update you unroot, so you will get FOTA. Just update to Oreo and then flash twrp and Magisk (or whatever you use) again.
I am rooted and updated to Oreo then chose updates involving battery improvement and/or system stability (downloaded to external sd), after installed the last update I flashed twrp and rooted again.
You need to flash stock recovery before update. The phone will find the updated with custom recovery but update will fail.
The site I downloaded stock recovery from is down so you have to search for it, or download RAW stock rom and extract the recovery from it

Thanks! I ended up having to use the 11.41.87.2 recovery in order to flash a Nougat update - it wouldn't work with the older recoveries.
