Right, so, through a bit of trial and error using guidance from the forums, this is how I updated to JB and kept root for WW after the update originally failed.
download BOTH files from here (massive thanks to ch3mn3y):
http://www25.zippyshare.com/v/91334594/file.html
http://www1.zippyshare.com/v/96461494/file.html
then extract the .zip file.
download the command file from here (massive thanks to krabappel2548):
http://www.mediafire.com/?yq1bt16mnm7tc8d
extract it.
place the dlpkgfile and command file, both unzipped onto your tab. Use a root explorer to paste the command file into /cache/recovery and the dlpkgfile (the actual file, not the folder) to /cache.
go to Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper and temp unroot.
turn off the tab.
boot into recovery with Vol - and power, then when it says to press volume up to boot into RCK, do it.
You'll see the android with the blue wires and it will go through the install process if you have done it right. let it do its thing.
obviously, when it has settled, restore root with Voodoo.
If you get the android with red exclamation mark, i reccomend downloading the ICS zip of your current firmware and SKU and sticking it on a micro SD card, and letting it restore any programmes you've deleted.

Will your last line lose root on us, or will voodoo root keeper save it via that or does it wipe/reset the entire system?

When i ran ran the zip of .30 i did lose root, but it was easily restored using 1 click transformer root.
I tried it twice but it always failed at about 1/3 of the process... Hopefully I can reboot w/ any damage...
WHY!?? :'(
Btw here's the part of the log where it shows the failure in installation:

I think I found the problem: I remember I pushed jelly bean's music2.apk in system/app! Restored the original music app.
Gonna try update again!
Now it the turn of libGLESv1_CM.so ...
Going to give it a try.
Just to make sure, is this for WW version, right?

Already got this before my update notification stopped working.
I deleted Email app, returned it back to system but seems I dont have the right version. (found in someones dropbox posted here)
Also reflashed Ww. 30 hoping this would overwrite the widget with correct version. Obviously it did not...
Would be glad for any help.
As it is MY dlpkgfile it can need MY files. I could upload /system, but first its strange to copy/paste whole android and second it is 624mb and third it will work only for rooted and at least fourth i updated my pad.
If it helps my pad was reflashed to .30 using wolfs method cos i had screen issue.

Could you please try to upload just the EmailWidget?
When I tried using OTA I got an error on Email.apk first. Then I downloaded it from dropbox and it passed. But EmailWidget did unfortunately not.
Also trying to find a tool that could extract the .30blob file. I guess the apps should be there. Found something but probably Linux only so no go for me.
You guys made my day! I had the red triangle and couldn`t get the update anymore. Tried everything, nothing worked.
Now I just followed your guide, dl. your files and all went fine.
So sad I was ony able to hit the Tanks-button once. Thank you thousand times!

I only have it from JB. Unfortunately it seems the file was updated together with the system so it will most probably be useless.

Hi guys
I have a bit of a problem here!
I got the ota update, wanted to install it, but failed.
So i downloaded the ota zip file from our site. ([REF] Nexus 7 Stock OTA URLs)
Went to recovery and tried to install it, and bam. Failed!
It says Something about xt9ime.apk not being in system/app or sth like that.
Can anyone help me?
Edit: i have the recovery log file if it helps! :S
If you've changed or deleted any system files, that would do it.
It's even telling you what the problem is.
That file is changed or missing.

You should have had a look at your log file or have been done the update while running logcat, in that case you would see the exact error message / the file the updater is complaining about.

The updater doesn't find XT9IME.apk on your /system partition. Due to that it's failing. If you have a copy of the file, try to install it in recovery mode to /system/app and try to apply the update again.

Anyone please help.
I update it,it auto flash the zip in TWRP,now it stuck on "X" boot animation,don't start up.Any solution?
This is a peculiar thing. Some apps that have an internal file browser (MD5 Checker, for example) have started defaulting to the root folder, and I can't navigate to the sdcard, because /sdcard as well as /mnt/sdcard don't exist (or can't be seen). I'm denied access to /storage. But file explorer programs (FX, ES) see them no problem.
Does anyone have any ideas? I'm running the latest Cataclysm 4.3.
Edit: problem solved by doing a factory reset and clean install.

So Hello everyone, i got interesting problem...
I bricked my phone
Phone: SM-9005
OS: Android 4.4.2
Firmware: N9005XXUGNG1
Recovery: TWRP 3.0 installed.
Root software installed which may be interesting "Xposed Additions, Lucky Patcher, SuperSu, Greenify"
Step by step.
// maybe helpful - cache / dalvik cache wiped and after reboot i started playing stuff
I used Root Browser (com.jrummy.root.browserfree) to copy 2 directories from my /downloads to /system.
There were /lib & /bin which contained unique libs and one executable so this would not affect system if everything went ok, but i didn't
After i started coping, root explorer asked me that "File already exist, overwrite or make a copy"? i pressed overwrite, in same second all apps in android started to generate "unexpected error", i tried to reboot and got boot into recovery
after i watched /system i found that what i tried to copy actually copied not to /system/lib & /system/app but to /system/system/lib & /system/system/app.
So i think there was some folder or file called system in /system directory which was overwritten. Or any kind of problem with dir / file permissions.
Any ideas of how to fix this / what was in /system/system / where to get bootlog to find after what "kernel panic" takes place or any other help?
Thanks.
// maybe somebody with same model version, same os version can upload zip file of own /system folder without /apps, /priv-apps and build.prop so i can compare whats lost compared to my data?
Fixed myself, root browser set wrong permissions to /system while was coping files... set back to 755 and it works
Hi, I cannot convert an User App into a System App in Marshmallow.
Moving the Folder of the App from Data/App to System/Priv-App OR System/App does't work.
So I would know if there is a solution?
I tried also Link2SD function to Convert the APP into a System One but nothing.
It just dissapear like with moving the folder.
Permissions are set-up correctly.
Thanks.

Use this app to mount /system:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.blogspot.superthomaslab.mountsystemrorw
Use this root explorer:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.root.browserfree
It's recommended to have busybox installed.
Or use TWRP:
Boot to recovery->go to mount->check /system and reboot
It doesn't work. I think is a limitation of Marshmallow Permissions.
The only way I found is using Lucky Patcher and selecting the option "Rebuild and install" to Install the file .APK as System from the beginning. Otherwise it doesn't work. Anyway thanks.

I had the same problem today.
I think I found solution !
I think you flashed wrong supersu version.
Try to flash this through twrp:
https://download.chainfire.eu/924/SuperSU/BETA-SuperSU-v2.68-20160228150503.zip
After that go to es explorer enable root explorer. Next, click on root explorer and choose mount r/w check r/w on /system

Hi I have the solution-install a user app(don't move to SD) ,in es file manager mount system to rw ,copy whole folder of that user app from /data/app to /system/priv app ,now set permissions to folder similar to that of other folders present there ,now inside the folder set permissions to apk as rwrr (don't touch other folders present there). ,mount system ro ,now uninstall that user app from launcher and finally REEBOOOOT!!!!
