OK people, Android 4.2.1/JOP40D is pushing out now. Please keep an eye out for the OTA notification on your tablet. If anyone gets it before I do, please post the filename or URL to it here so I can update the first post and mirror it on randomphantasmagoria.com. Thanks!
[Nexus 10 General] KestrelX:
Would you mind explaining to this noob where to look for that information? Would be happy to try, but don't recall ever seeing that info before when getting an OTA.

Edit: oops I went and read op. You need a log file app and I imagine root since I saw a post about requiring root now in order to view debug logs? I haven't gotten around to rooting yet.
[Nexus 10 General] oldblue910:
You don't need root. All you'll need to do is enable USB debugging on your tablet in Settings > Developer Options. If you don't have Developer Options under settings on your N10, go to Settings > About Phone and repeatedly tap the build number until you get the note at the bottom of the screen saying developer options have been enabled.

Once that's done and USB debugging is enabled, wait to get the OTA notification on your tablet. When you get it, don't install it yet. First, go under Settings > Developer Options and choose "Take Bug Report". Email that bug report to yourself. When you get the report, search it for ".zip" (without the quotes) and post what you find!

Thanks!

mine has been rooted. not sure still able to get OTA or not.. but will keep my eyes on it..
[Nexus 10 General] oldblue910:
If all you did was root, meaning you are still running the stock ROM, you will still get the OTA.

I am unlocked, but with stock bootloader/recovery installed, and rooted. The update was failing for me when using the nexus root toolkit and booting to temporary recovery (TWRP) and installing the update as a zip.

Here's what did work for my case:

- I copied the ota zip file from my device to my pc

- Then from nexus root toolkit i did adb sideload, and selected the zip on the pc.

- The update then successfully installed for me.

Joe
[Nexus 10 General] cnlson:
i confirm this worked for me as well. i finally got to see what comes after the bouncing balls (don't go there...) yay!

must be something that twrp cannot do included in that zip.

wahoo!

ok, i notice lots of strangeness. it will not flash root and recovery easily. it sticks on certain pages in the bootloader and has to be manually rebooted. the open recovery scripts sometimes do nothing and you will boot into twrp and have to manually do all selections. i think it needs an update for kitkat
[Nexus 10 General] laithmurad:
Wow! This is very informative, thank you. I ended up doing this yesterday. It worked perfectly.

[Nexus 10 General] drgonzo712:
So, can I just download the file from the link and flash through recovery like usual?
[Nexus 10 General] mihalich1:
Are you using TWRP 2.6.3.1? It was just released a couple of days ago, presumably with 4.4 changes...i did't read the release notes though so not sure. Someone else on here said booting to recovery and flashing the zip worked for him with 2.6.3.1. So maybe that version will work for what you're trying to do.

Joe
[Nexus 10 General] cnlson:
depends, did you do a backup before you flashed? just format (i formatted system) and then restore the backup and was right back up

then you can either try updating twrp (i can't figure out how to just yet) or use flash from adb from the toolkit and that worked for me

if you don't have a backup. you can try from twrp to anything off that you don't want to lose and you will need to then reimage to 4.3

then once done you can use adb side load, return recovery to stock, or update twrp to 2.6.3.1

nope, didn't know there was an update and haven't now figured out how to flash it

Have JWR66Y, rooted and TWRP 2.6.3.0 running.

When I try to apply OTA per sideload, I get error

[Nexus 10 General] xenios:
Got the OTA today for my Nexus 10, still waiting for the Nexus 4.

Odd thing is as I read a post on androidpolice of somebody that got the OTA and flashed it while with custom recovery without any changes.

I tried it and whaddayaknow, it restarted in TWRP, installed update and rebooted back and everything works part from root that's missing the binary. So just one step to do now.

Is there some magic with the latest TWRP going on?

Update: TWRP was replaced by stock recovery
[Nexus 10 General] Indiwiz:
I'm guessing this is the OTA I received this morning. Couldn't install in CWM.
[Nexus 10 General] oldblue910:
You cannot auto-flash OTAs in CWM. If you hit "reboot and install", it will not into CWM and it will just sit there. If you need to flask an OTA with CWM, copy the OTA file out of /cache onto your internal storage, then flash it manually.
[Nexus 10 General] Indiwiz:
Actually it started as if it were going to flash it, asked me did I want to install "untrusted-zip" or something along the lines of that, but ended up with status 7. But then again, CMW returns status 7 with just about anything you try to flash.
[Nexus 10 General] oldblue910:
If you got status 7 while flashing an OTA, 99% of the time that means something about your ROM isn't stock. Either you're not using the stock kernel or some file on /system is modified from stock form, either by you or by a root app.
[Nexus 10 General] Indiwiz:
Cool, I never knew that's exactly what that meant. Yeah I changed some things.
[Nexus 10 General] vittogn:
I got the following message:

"/system/bin/debuggered" has unexpected contents

E:Error in /tmp/update.zip

(Status 7)

Any possibility of understanding what has been modified by what root app? I'd like to avoid a wipe!
[Nexus 10 General] wfm_de:
In my case the root app was stickmount .

I had to deinstall stickmount and to replace debuggerd with the stockversion.
[Nexus 10 General] thegrantonstarcause:
So is this definitely flashable with TWRP? I've got KRT16O at the moment. Would the steps be - flash OTA with TWRP and then root again?
[Nexus 10 General] gialakias:
Well I can confirm that CWM flashes automatically with reboot and install and so does TWRP. Also the last update applied in my case automatically with TWRP without a case. I tried the krt16o update with the two recoveries also and it applied correctly.
[Nexus 10 General] PaintDrinkingPete:
Here is what I did...

1. First, you have to be 100% stock or the update will not install. For example, I had installed the translucent status bar mod, so I had to remove that to return my device back to stock. If you've installed numerous mods, it may be easier to just use a factory image instead...but you'll have to make that determination.

2. Copy the update file to your internal "SD Card" storage (either copy from /cache on your device or download from the link in the OP).

3. Make sure the SuperSU app is up to date on your device, and download the .zip of the latest version

(As of 21Nov2013, you can get that here: http://download.chainfire.eu/368/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.75.zip )

4. Boot into TWRP recovery. Wipe "Cache" and "Dalvik".

5. Install the update file (If it fails, then usually it means that you are not 100% stock)

6. Install the SuperSU .zip

7. Reboot. Enjoy.

EDIT: After rebooting, you may still see the notification for the pending update. Simply go into settings and do the "check for update" thing, and it should reset itself and indicate that you are up to date.

well I am getting the status 7 (a variant of different errors). To my knowledge I only used the stock rom. So I'm guessing some application with root did something to modify. So now what. I'm using wugfresh NRT v 1.7.8. Is there anything I can do to retain my data, or factory wipe to stock is my only option?

EDIT: using NRT, I did use the "Custom Recovery" option within the advanced, so that temporarily lets me use twrp v2.6.3.1. I dont use that, so not sure if there is anything in there that can help me.

[Nexus 10 General] springy:
Hi question guys, I previously rooted my Nexus 10 and 4 in the 4.2 days. When I upgraded to 4.3 it was all fine and was able to restore things to stock. 4.3 broke root so I never bothered to root it.

My Nexus 4 has problems to go to KitKat so I flash the factory Rom. I have yet to get the Nexus 10 OTA, but I have a feeling I will get the same problem (status 7).

When I downloaded the factory Rom for Nexus 10 (https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#mantaraykrt16s) and opened the flash-all.bat, I have a lot of erase commands, which is a lot different to the Nexus 4.

The Nexus 10 commands reads:

fastboot erase boot

fastboot erase cache

fastboot erase recovery

fastboot erase system

fastboot erase userdata

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-manta-mantamd03.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

ping -n 5 127.0.0.1 >nul

fastboot -w update image-mantaray-krt16s.zip

Is it possible I could just use the below and preserve the data on my Tablet?

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-manta-mantamd03.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot update image-mantaray-krt16s.zip

Just as an FYI -- I was able to flash the "KOT49H-from-KRT16S" zip directly from latest CWM no problem w/out data wipe. Flashed SuperSU.zip afterwards and everything worked fine, root still intact.

I was coming from a pretty much completely stock system

[Nexus 10 General] PaintDrinkingPete:
Install .zip

Just installed it like any flashable zip file (after making a nandroid and wiping cache & dalvik, naturally). Again, if you're not running stock, it will probably fail the validation check and refuse to install...but it worked for me.
[Nexus 10 General] jerryp7:
Did you flash SuperSU.zip before rebooting system or were you able to reboot system and then boot into recovery? Last time I tried to update I wasn't able to get into recovery and had to start from scratch to reinstall recovery and root.
[Nexus 10 General] PaintDrinkingPete:
I had already downloaded superSU prior to installing update, so I simply installed it before rebooting system in the same session.

After the tablet rebooted, I verified that root still worked, and then rebooted back into recovery to verify that CWM was still there...everything was good.

As noted before, I was coming from KRT16S, and used the latest version of CWM. Not sure if that makes a difference, just providing that info.
[Nexus 10 General] jerryp7:
Excellent! I always keep SuperSU.zip in my root directory in case I need it. I was concerned that installing superSU right over the update might break the update. As long as root is there CWM or TWRP (which I use) can be installed in all manner of ways should they go bad. But without root your pretty screwed and it becomes a challenge. Thanks.
[Nexus 10 General] PaintDrinkingPete:
I had been using (and prefer) TWRP, but I had read that it wasn't playing nicely with 4.4 for some folks, so I switched to CWM.
[Nexus 10 General] jerryp7:
4.4 seems to be Ok with TWPR for me but when I have tried to install the 4.4.2 update it fails. Is that the not-nice-playing you refer to?
[Nexus 10 General] wfm_de:
Nobody can help me ? Please
[Nexus 10 General] VivaErBetis:
Since there is no factory image released for KOT49E it may be difficult to help you because you need a person with that release installed that haven't upgraded it yet to 4.4.2... It should be easier to flash system.img, boot.img and radio from the latest 4.4 factory image released and then install the 4.4 to 4.4.2 OTA.
[Nexus 10 General] wfm_de:
Thanks for your answer. If no one can help me now, I'll have to wait on the factory images.

I found system.IMG and boot.IMG in the 4.4-image. But where is radio ?
[Nexus 10 General] VivaErBetis:
Oh sorry. No radio is needed for the nexus 10... Only boot and system.

I thought this was the nexus 4 forum. I'm becoming old :sly:
[Nexus 10 General] wfm_de:
Thank you for your consider.

Krt49h runs successfully and the device is rooted again with wigs toolkit.
[Nexus 10 General] VivaErBetis:
Glad you made it :thumbup:
[Nexus 10 General] PaintDrinkingPete:
Could be... Seems a lot of 4.4+ ROMs won't flash with TWRP, or at the very least won't flash without a full wipe.

I'm just going by what I've read in some of the other dev threads here.
[Nexus 10 General] jerryp7:
Well so far I have tried a straight TWRP install and failed. Then I tried a TWRP sideload and failed again. The message is "E:Error executing updater binary in zip". Then I tried to sideload using CWM. This failed too with the error "Error in /tmp/update.zip (status 7)". So I'm thinking there is something wrong with the zip except it seems to work for others. Stock sideload gives me the same error as CWM. Suggestions?
[Nexus 10 General] VivaErBetis:
Try to flash the OTA again with TWRP. It will fail. Then reboot and look in the text file /cache/recovery/last_log in order to find a more specific error description.
[Nexus 10 General] EthanFirst:
mantaray-KOT49H-from-JWR66Y
[Nexus 10 General] jerryp7:
I tried the flash but it didn't generate a /cache/recovery/last_log.
[Nexus 10 General] VivaErBetis:
Strange, maybe you're using an old TWRP version?

Is in /cache/recovery any other file created?
[Nexus 10 General] jerryp7:
I have the current TWRP. The only thing in the cache directory is a coveroid directory with wallpaper thumbnails.
[Nexus 10 General] VivaErBetis:
Are you rooted? Maybe you can't view all cache folder contents from within Android if not.

Anyways, without the TWRP log will be really hard to find the concrete problem. Maybe it's better to download the whole 4.2.2 factory image and just flash using fastboot the system and boot img files (you will not lose data if done that way, but make a backup first).

BTW: The correct link to the 4.2.2 factory Images are shown in this post:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2565519
[Nexus 10 General] jerryp7:
This is a great idea and I want to do it BUT I don't know how to get to fastboot and the file from the link is .tgz, not an .img. Would you mind pointing me in the right direction to handle this?
[Nexus 10 General] VivaErBetis:
The .tgz file is a compressed file. You can use, for instance, 7zip to view/extract its contents.

There is a file called "mantaray-kot49h-factory-174ba74f.tar" inside that .tgz. Open it with 7zip too and you will find a folder called "mantaray-kot49h" and inside it a zip file called "image-mantaray-kot49h.zip". Is from inside that .zip file where you can get the "boot.img" and the "system.img" image files.

The fastboot is just the command you used to flash the custom recovery (TWRP/CWM) the first time. It's located in the folder "platform-tools" of the Android SDK. You may have used a toolkit to flash the recovery. In that case you will download and install Android SDK to your PC.

You can upgrade using the following process, but have in mind that it's a bit dangerous if you are not totally sure of what you're doing, because if something goes wrong you may don't know how to fix it from that point:

-Extract the files "boot.img" and "system.img" in the SDK folder "platform-tools".

-Connect the device to the PC in bootloader mode turning on the tablet with both volume up & volume down buttons pushed together.

-Open a terminal command in the PC, move to the folder "platform-tools" and run this instructions, one after one:

fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img

Disconnect the tablet from the PC when these commands finished and enter into recovery. Wipe dalvik & cache, re-root if you want, and restart the tablet now upgraded.
[Nexus 10 General] jerryp7:
Thanks for this. Wouldn't just installing image-mantaray-kot49h.zip from TWRP, wipe caches and install SuperSU work?
[Nexus 10 General] VivaErBetis:
Yes...... but you will lost all your data in the process...

It may works without losing data if you delete userdata.img from the zip and then install that modified zip with TWRP. But I've never done it this way so I can't guarantee (well, theoretically, it will work).

Make a nandroid backup first, just in case.
[Nexus 10 General] jerryp7:
Just made the nandroid. What time is it in Madrid? It's 6:40am in NY City.
