Hi!
I'm wondering if anyone has a factory image for the 6.0 (or a TWRP backup I could use) update because my Shield TV (16gb, 2015) will NOT install any OTA's at all unfortunately. Even after restoring with the factory images of the last update, the device will reboot into recovery mode and hang on about 20% before rebooting to the "Ready to download and install" screen.
Can anyone help me with this? The 5.2.0 update wouldn't install and now this one won't either...
Thanks!

So my son's 2012 Nexus 7 (32 GB Wi-Fi) is struggling to update. I was checking to see if he got the 5.0 update and noticed he's still on 4.4.2. When I tried to update to 4.4.3 it won't reboot and install the update.
I then tried to sideload the update and it failed due to some certificate issue. Maybe because it's unlocked? I then rooted it again (lost it after the last update apparently) and also installed TWRP. I was going to attempt to sideload from within TWRP but adb doesn't see the device in sideload mode for me for some reason.
Bottom line... Can I just flash the OTA zip file like any other file within TWRP? If not, does anyone have any over ideas of what I can do to update this this without wiping it clean?
I think you will have to flash the 5.0 and images using fastboot. Can you get into ap fastboot mode?
before that though, and to answer your questions:
- unlocked bootloader does not cause issues
- I've used twrp to flash all of the KitKat ota updates directly. simply put the update zip in the internal storage of the device (I always put it in sdcard0/) and flash. the only reason that would fail with KitKat is if you have xposed installed, which was fixed by flashing xposed Disabler zip first. I don't think having root mattered.
- for the lollipop update flashing from twrp didn't work for me. I had to first return 4.4.4 to stock system and recovery (by flashing the system.img and recovery.img files from stock 4.4.4) then adb sideload 5.0 ota update. In your case tho you'd have just updated to 4.4.4 so you can just go straight to sideloading.
All the ota update links are in the second sticky in the general section. make sure you follow the correct to:from build numbers.
I'd prefer this longer route of ota updates, but if nothing works then you can probably just flash system, recovery, and boot directly from the lollipop firmware, and leave userdata untouched. I'd also Not flash the bootloader, as it's reported to have issues.
Yesterday my Nexus 4 (rooted & CWM recovery) prompted to install 5.1 update. Once the phone reboots, enter to recovery and begin installation proccess, it throws an error (in short, build expects fingerprint of 5.0.1 but gets 4.3 fingerprint instead) and abort. Already tried all below:
unroot, stock recovery and OTA > Fail
Stock recovery sideload > Fail
TWRP recovery sideload > Fail
CWM recovery sideload > Fail
I am stuck here. I allways can flash the stock rom, but I really want to avoid it if possible, i dont want to (one more time) spend hours restoring all my config, apps, data, layouts....Any hint, my wise fellows?
Thanks a lot

I followed the steps in this guide https://gist.github.com/eyecatchup/ec0a852428c19705380e for updating to 5.1.
I obiously replaced the relevant files with the ones for Nexus 4. I downloaded the 5.0.1 factory image and flashed recovery, boot and system, then installed the OTA and then flashed new recovery and supersu.

When you say "installed the OTA" I assume, by itself, not sideloading, isn't it?
Thanks

Sorry for the laterespone. Yes, like in the guide I used 'adb sideload ...'.
Have you tried flashing it with the stock 5.0.1 images directly, and then going back and flashing with the 5.1 images (or OTA?) If you have rooted, simply factory resetting will not work due to the way 5.+ authentication checks. A single modified byte, and the OTA Sideload will fail (I have been through the same issue as you have, and flashing the 5.0.1 images in Wug's NRT, booting, and then installing the 5.1 OTA (this was before the images were out yet and I was impatient), did the trick for me.
I reflashed to stock 5.0.2 in order to get the 5.1 OTA update. I then booted into TWRP to try to save the OTA file, but TWRP started installing the OTA and I'm not sure it was 100% successful. My bootloader screen currently says:
Version:24.00.2015.42-t210-fcf112d9
If someone here has the same setup (5.1 on the Shield TV 16GB 2015) could you verify that this is correct? Thanks
Hi all,

OTA update is failing,
Factory reset is not working,

Firmware Finder shows there's a new update available for my BTV-W09. It's B355 dated 06/05/18. It's a small OTA, only 190mb. Has anybody installed it? Does anybody know what's in it?
Firmware Finder provides the changelog. It has the June security patches.
No netflix hd update? ****!
How install? I don't remember. [emoji28]. Thanks in advance.

Anyone have any luck applying this update with TWRP recovery? Looks like it is going to require a flash back to stock to apply?
I was only able to install it with stock. Even then, it had to be the full install, not the OTA update. That install locks the bootloader and unroots; so I then had to re-unlock, which of course wipes the entire device, and then restore from a Google and Titanium backup. Not sure updating is worth the pain. really.
My rooted tab is now threatening to install this update when I reboot. Does anybody remember how to stop a firmware update when it wants to update on reboot?
I don't think there's much to worry about as if you're rooted with TWRP, it'll just reboot into TWRP and wait for you to manually apply it, if you can find it on the file system.
I'm currently trying to apply B356 which was recently released. This minor update contains the July 2018 Google security patches. The last time I did this from B351, this is what I did:
Via TWRP, Installed the 2 full OTA zip files for B352 downloaded with firmwarefinder. This replaced TWRP with the stock recovery but did not wipe my data.
Rebooted, and applied B353 via the normal OTA through settings. This installed the B353 full package (2.52GB).
Reinstalled TWRP with fastboot (twrp_BTV-W09_5_greatslon.img)
Booted to TWRP & installed Magisk
Re-enabled the 5GHz wifi radio
However, this doesn't seem to be working with B356 thus far. Installing the Firmwarefinder zip files failed (at least update.zip did, I didn't try the other two) so I installed the FF B352 images mentioned above. However, applying the stock OTA through settings wants to install 3 patches (B353, June 18, July 18) of size 786MB. They downloaded successfully but then it fails to apply during the reboot.
Anyone else have any luck? What did you wind up doing?
Thanks!
Every time I've applied an update, I ended up locking the bootloader and then having the phone wiped when I unlock the bootloader. I'd love to find a way to update without locking the bootloader. If you find a way to that with this update, please let post how you did it!
