Huh? The OTA is here now. You don't need to root or unlock the bootloader to install it. Either wait for your phone to get the notification or install the SDK and use adb sideload.
[Nexus 4 General] heat361:
can someone do me a favor and upload a copy of the file in system/lib named

[Nexus 4 General] DirkBelig:
Me, too. I was on faux's kernel and flashed back to stock after wiping cache and Dalvik and I'm getting a Status 7 error when trying to flash in CWM.
[Nexus 4 General] eskimo_dave:
OTA Rootkeeper successfully brought back root access after I flashed the 4.2.2 update. As long as you have your root backed up prior to updating, you don't need to reflash supersu.

A question, I'm rooted running stock & am very familiar with flashing Roms but never an update like this / do I wipe anything when I flash or not?

You have busybox installed?

---------- Post added at 04:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:12 AM ----------

Wiping dalvik and cache is only thing for this update.
[Nexus 4 General] Crisisx1:
Lol..your rooted...unlocked boot loader ...with a custom kernel...and you expect the ota to update ? Lol
[Nexus 4 General] kyokeun1234:
He said he went back to stock and still didn't work. I believe it is busybox problem since my friend also had this back in Nexus S days
[Nexus 4 General] Crisisx1:
All he did was go back to stock kernel lol what difference does that make...he's still rooted running a custom recovery
[Nexus 4 General] efrant:
Franco changes some system files. Flash the stock system image and then the update will work.
[Nexus 4 General] Bronk93:
I was stock rooted, flashed ota zip and when I choose settings I keep getting a FC.
[Nexus 4 General] kyokeun1234:
Well root barely stops updates from updating (just unroots it) and I was assuming that he was flashing it manually... Doubt that these two are the cause. Never failed for me
[Nexus 4 General] DirkBelig:
I am running stock rooted 4.2.1 with the only change being using faux's kernels. I flashed the stock kernel in CWM after wiping cache and Dalvik, rebooted, then rebooted back to CWM where I wiped cache/Dalvik and attempted to run the OTA zip getting this error:

Verifying current system...

assert failed: apply_patch_check (" /system/bin/thermald". "[long MD5]". "[different long MD5]")

E:Error in /sdcard/0/download/[update file name].zip

(Status 7)

Installation aborted

I've redownloaded the OTA zip and verified the MD5 hash, so I'm stumped. Are you saying that I'm going to have to burn my entire phone, wiping out the 150+ apps and all my settings in order to get to stock so I can apply this update?!? Really??? Just from using an alternate kernel? Jeez... :mad:
[Nexus 4 General] Prod1702:
How about you stop crying and just wait for the 4.2.2 Roms to start coming in, or maybe look for a back to stock route. There is a app called titanium back that will save those 150+ apps you are talking about.
[Nexus 4 General] Nocturnal86:
Just verified using OTA rootkeeper and installing via Custom recovery works great and you keep root! Now im on 4.2.2! Hoping this brings good bug fixes and battery fixes :)
[Nexus 4 General] DirkBelig:
Is it possible to ask a question here without being bullied and sneered at by the uber-l337? I don't want to use a ROM. I'm not someone whose entire phone experience is flashing nightlies day after day because that strokes some nerd spot. I need my phone to WORK and just wanted to get better battery life and tried faux's kernel since I was already using FauxClock to fix the broken gamma mess of the LCD.

From what I'd read, I thought it'd just be a matter of flashing the stock kernel and then updating to the OTA. When that didn't work I decided to ask for assistance and instead I get attacked and snarled at. Thanks. It's people like you that give the Android mod scene a terrible rep. (The reason Linux will NEVER take off widely is that those goons are the WORST to n00bs needing help. Barking, "READ THE WIKI!" doesn't help anyone.)

I've got Titanium Backup, but would like to do something else with my evening other than backing up a bazillion apps and data, moving them off the phone (no SD card, ya know?) and then flashing a stock image and jumbling about trying to get things back. I'm sure there'll be problems, wasting more time and if I ask about it, someone like you will laugh, "You moron. The TBU was from 4.2.1 and you're on 4.2.2. No wonder it doesn't work! Stupid n00b!" Lovely. :rolleyes:

Custom kernels change some files in /system. You need to flash the stock system image. And no, it won't delete any of you files/apps/whatever.

I do have busybox installed, latest version. Its not crucial I get 4.2.2 right away, just thought I'd give it a try. I've heard from other people who are running stock like I am, and they just flashed the stock kernel and done. I'll try and figure it out or just wait for the OTA....

[Nexus 4 General] DirkBelig:
I Googled up your guide here - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2010312 - and while it says in the notes that it's possible to not wipe out everything by skipping Step 10, for the most part the instructions appear to require a la carte flashing of the pieces and are mainly geared to wiping out everything. Am I misreading things?
[Nexus 4 General] srathi:
CWM Recovery 6.0.2.3

Just use CWM Recovery 6.0.2.3 and it will ask you to keep root and customer recovery during update.
[Nexus 4 General] efrant:
All of your apps and all of your app data and all of your files are stored in the userdata partition. As long as you don't touch that, nothing will be wiped. So, if you flash the system and boot images, it will just return the system files in your stock ROM back to stock, and return your kernel to the stock kernel, with no data loss.
[Nexus 4 General] killswitch11:
I see. So it's back to stock image due to changes made by Franco kernel that persist. Thanks for the helpful input versus the "I'm cool when I'm on the internet" BS that some users display. :good:
[Nexus 4 General] DirkBelig:
I'm getting hung up. I've downloaded the files and extracted them with 7-zip as per your instructions.

I used the fastboot reboot-bootloader command and it rebooted to CWM v6.0.2.3.

Typed adb devices and it returned the device string and recovery.

Typed fastboot flash system system.img and it returns < waiting for device > and that's it.

What am I doing wrong? TIA.
[Nexus 4 General] efrant:
To use fastboot commands, you need to be booted into the bootloader, not CWM.
[Nexus 4 General] DirkBelig:
Ah, got it. (Derp.) Was able to flash boot and system, but phone stuck in X forever until I kicked back into recovery and rewiped cache and Dalvik. It broke root and OTA Rootkeeper didn't have a copy anymore, so I had to reroot (used Wugs kit) and then flashed the OTA via CWM. Was able to restore root with Rootkeeper, but FauxClock appears to be borked up with no gamma controls. Bother.

Thank you very much for your assistance.
[Nexus 4 General] efrant:
What are you trying to accomplish here? If you want to apply the update, you will need to be stock, so you will have to flash the stock system.img and the stock boot.img. THEN you will need to re-flash your custom kernel and any control app that comes along with it.
[Nexus 4 General] DirkBelig:
I know that about adjusting kernel settings, but the color/gamma adjustments were possible with the rooted stock kernel - you didn't need to use his specific kernel. Something about the 4.2.2 update has broken that functionality for everyone and he'll have to update his app to do so. He's attending to his wife after she had surgery, so we'll be waiting a bit for that. No biggie, just sucks to be back to the messed up default display settings.
[Nexus 4 General] efrant:
Interesting. I did not know that you can adjust gamma settings with a stock kernel. (I still find it hard to believe that it is even possible.)
[Nexus 4 General] DirkBelig:
Yep. There's a thread in this forum leading to a spreadsheet where various settings are compiled and one of the items is which kernel you're using. Faux has a Display tweaking app too that AFAIK also works with stock because he reverse engineered a method to really dig into the settings.
[Nexus 4 General] jonas18z:
I'm on stock 4.2.1 unlocked bootloader, root, installed super su and busybox with Nexus toolkit. How do I keep Everything and update with this file?
[Nexus 4 General] Scribblez:
Yep, I was running everything Stock (just rooted) and used Faux's app to adjust the gamma settings. My screen looked amazing after the gamma adjustments. Although I just updated to OTA 4.2.2 and his app is not updated for that yet so now I'm back to the original washed out look of the default Google/LG N4 settings for now.

This is the thread that DirkBelig was talking about. On the spreadsheet, you can see many people were making gamma changes with Stock.

I'm on the latest Tmobile stock firmware, and I'm trying to root. However, when I install Odin and put the phone into Download Mode, it doesn't connect after plugging in the USB cable. The box ID:COM stays blank. If I connect the phone while it's on, it'll connect as a media device, just not in Download Mode. Any pointers? Thanks in advance.

EDIT: In case anyone else has this problem, I resolved it by plugging the USB cable directly into the computer. I had an extension cable since my computer was in a bad spot. Stupid me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] PhxDroid86:
Make sure ur USB debugging mode is turned on (under phone settings, developer options), if that doesnt do it...

Make sure kies is disabled (uninstall if need be - I technically never did but others reported it as a solution, so I might as well) , if that dont work...

Install Mskips latest toolkit and redownload his drivers (option 1 I believe)... you can still root whatever way you want but I havent heard anyone have issues connecting to Odin with his drivers

---------- Post added at 07:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:45 PM ----------

Also, might as well throw in, since your not rooted, now might be a good time to backup your phones modem/radio/NV/imei files as those things can mess up (as a few have reported, very few I should say) during the root process... very few but better safe than sorry

Its also known that to fix the play store issue that results from doing this trick, you need to remove then re add your Google account.

If you made a Nandroid before flashing just restore it. If not and you have an external sd card shut down the phone and remove the sd card and use a computer to dl a rom and put it on the card.

I have been using juice defender (jd) on my nexus 4 to extend my battery life but came across something weird.

Originally, I thought my network provider had capped my data speed since I have been doing lots of streaming, but apparently that was not the reason as I was still getting 10-12mbps when I have jd disabled.

Can anyone else test this to confirm?
