[Q] [HELP] Download again Android 4.3 via OTA

Hi to everyone,
I downloaded Android 4.3 via OTA but I didn't install it immediately. After some days by mistake I cleared all the data in the Cache, so I couldn't install it because I lost the data.
I tried to clear the data in google service framework process after I checked for the updates but my phone says the system is up to date even if I have the 4.2 installed on it. How can I download the 4.3 update again in the simplest way?

Keep trying the same trick as it won't work in the first attempt.. I had tried it for almost 15 times a day..
Simple way is why dont you try any 4.3 custom rom if you are rooted??
Rooting your phone won't harm you or your phone... all upto you. :good:

I'm having little same problem.
Yesterday i received my RMA Nexus 4 and it was shipped with 4.2.2. I received notification for 4.3 to installed but when i clicked on restart and install. Notification disappeared and nothing happen to phone. since then i'm not getting any update for 4.3 at all. Triad many times since yesterday.
Any advice or trick would be welcome.

Go to settings-->Apps-->All Apps-->Google framework services.
Delete cache and data etc.
Go to dialer and 'call' this: *#*#2432546#*#*
Go to System update and your update should be there.

I havent rooted my phone because I don't want to lose warranty. I rooted my old HTC desire and partitioned the SD card as it had no space for apps. So I'll keep trying. Do you think Google will let me download again the ota? Or I'll be disabled for downloading the 4.3 seen that I already downloaded it?. Thank for your reply

Try it a couple of times. And make sure to clear cache AND data.
Maybe also Force close it.
You can also try the following:
Do exact to same but instead of typing *#*#blabla#*#* after deleting cache etc you gonna restart. After reboot go to system update it should be there.
I was lucky it worked for the first time but I remember members here tried it 7+ times and then got result.

Thanks I'll try to get the code for the URL. I have two questions:
1) Once I get the URL and I direct download the ota how can I install the updates? I mean (no root, no custom rom) just upgrade "legally"
2) Does the OTA delete the apps I have installed or any data like photos or music on my smartphone?
Thanks :good:

hahahahaha Legally? you act like rooting is going to get you thrown in jail.... LOL, well I have never done it "legally" as you say but I would assume there are directions in the link or on the web. Probably download zip to phone and there should be an update.zip option to use in stock recovery. OTA wont delete anything you have on your phone but ya know if you rooted it you would be able to nandroid all of that.
The pros of rooting out way any con you could possibly have but hey its your phone so enjoy. Also 4.3 stock is not exactly a major upgrade that you will notice but hopefully it fixes something you may have had an issue with on 4.2.2

Tried both tricks planty of times and still no luck.

I'm also having the same issue since yesterday, had the update downloaded for like 10 days but didn't install it due to the issues that I've heard and now it has disappeared
I'm on stock btw

odd. I'm having the same problem.
Phone is on 4.2.2 and is fully stock and it doesn't show the 4.3 update.

Hmm I don't know guys, keeo doing the tricks I said, it should work at sometime.

[Q] Updates working?

I've been using Omni since roughly the middle of December. I've been making use of the opendelta updates...but these have stopped working since 2014-02-17. I check for updates and it tells me Your system is up to date
My phone is a N7100 (Note 2)...note sure what other information is relevant here.
Anybody else experiencing this?

Hmm, possibly the removal of the 2/18 nightly screwed up the system.
Try manually updating to see if it restarts.

I know that the Xperia ZL updates don't automagically flash... (they download on the internal sdcard drive, but attempt to flash from the external sdcard drive...)
That doesn't seem to be the issue you're describing though...

Browse to the internal in TWRP and they should autoflash then.
I need to look into fixing TWRP's default search path when flashing via a script.

I had success going into TWRP Recovery mode and unchecking the zip file signature verification box. Once I did that, the autoupdates started to work again.

can you please tell me how to manually update omnirom, thanks

Sorry for not answer hichem but at least I see you came right.
To report back though...update went through smoothly last night.
A small (related) thing that has been bugging me though with Opendelta updates is that sometimes it takes a few Check now presses before it finds something...then it will stop and report that your system is up to date after having verified the update file you presently have and downloading the update file...press Check now again and it now patches the file before reporting that there is an update and you can flash.
Any reason to this behaviour?

I haven't updated yet but i think this is the procedure...Put the OTA file in the internal storage and pull out the usb cable.. U will get a notification about update..click on it and update... UN-ROOT first

Supersu unroot didnt work for me. I tried that and didnt look for root permissions before updating(dumb idea).
The update failed so i had to volume down + power to get out of it. Now i dont have the update available. :crying:
The failure could be totally unrelated though.

I have to admit... The fact that they are updating the FW on a nearly monthly scale, proves the level of commitment to this phone by Asus. I am so glad I chose it over the OPO.

Same here, I used this guide to root: http://www.asus.com/zentalk/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=9340
I did the unroot procedure with SuperSU before running the update, restarted my phone, tried using the OTA update and after going into recovery it just says "Error". After panicking a bit, I restarted the phone manually, fortunataly I was able to boot again but now I can't update. I don't even see the update as available anymore. As root, all I did was uninstalling some bloatware. What can I do?

Google keeps stopping

On latest ASF3 software (SM-G975F) for a week or so, all of a sudden I'm getting the "Google keeps Stopping" pop up and none of my google apps will open.
I tried all the clear cache, disabling, and uninstalling recent updates. Nothing works.
Any help appreciated!
