device not found

hi.

i just got a nexus a couple of days back and as far as i know, its unrooted/ as stock as it can get.

I am trying to sideload the 4.3. OTA hasn't arrived yet for me.

I get till the point where i see the lying android, when i have to do 'adb sideload update.zip'

when i do that, it says 'error: device not found'

I don't wanna root my device. just want to update the android version. Do i still have to install the sdk as explained in all the other blogs?
[Nexus 4 General] nexuses:
If you don't want root your device, you have to install nexus drivers in any way, and then follow steps in this video

[Nexus 4 General] HeyyMyNameIs:
it removed my root, what do i do next? do i just install the pushed ota update or section a?
[Nexus 4 General] itenos:
My OTA aborted because of a wrong libril.so file. As i don't have access to a PC at the moment I'm not able to neither flash the system.img nor can i extract the missing file from it.

Could anybody please extract this file from the 4.2.2 system.img for me and attach it here, so that i can push it to system with root Explorer ?

Thanks a lot
[Nexus 4 General] marathone:
Anyone know how to get past this error (see screenshot attached)? This happened after updating via OTA.

Go to accounts "google". Delete your "google" account and restart your phone. Then sign up again and the update problem should be gone.

nope i dont have that either. so odd
[Nexus 4 General] marathone:
Thanks, unfortunately this doesn't work for me. Had to do a factory reset. Now I can use Play.

Frigging other problem with my Nexus 7 (grouper) that has me stumped is that the device won't mount via USB on either GNU/Linux or Windoze since the update. So unable to re-root.

Didn't have any of these problems updating my Nexus 4 via ADB.

Anyone else losing the ability to mount via USB?

plz help which method i should use now....

Help: ADB does not recognize device in recovery mode

Hello,

I am following Section A: adb sideload from the OP. When the phone is powered up, adb rcognizes my device through USB. However when I go into recovery mode and then the "apply update from adb", adb does not find any devices attached to apply the sideload.

Am getting following error in the cmd prompt

D:\Android 4.3 OTA>adb sideload JDQ39E.zip

error: device not found

Please let me know how to resolve this.
[Nexus 4 General] El Daddy:
Make sure you have a newer adb version.
[Nexus 4 General] El Daddy:
You'll have to flash the stock recovery again and wipe cache. Then it should boot.

After you can flash a custom recovery if you'd like.
[Nexus 4 General] vksdxtr:
aputoat being

Its the one listed on the OP - I got it from there.
[Nexus 4 General] keviv77:
how can i flash stock recovery its not recognised by pc. please link me to some thread regarding this
[Nexus 4 General] El Daddy:
Reboot into the bootloader, hold volume down and power for 10+ seconds. Check efrant's back to stock thread for flashing instructions.
[Nexus 4 General] marathone:
Sorry to hijack his thread.

Him really, maybe why my device won't mount via USB, although it shows as charging. What is the latest ADB version?
[Nexus 4 General] cobyman7035:
guys i need help here, im in FASTBOOT mode right now but i don't know how to flash the .img files

i have those 3 files saved on c:/nex4 folder

i have CMD open to c:\nex4

i type fastboot devices

but NOTHING happens????

where is this adb program?

i have that nexus google 4 toolkit by mark s. and it says im in fastboot mode, but i don't want to flash using his program i want to do it the adb way! thanks

he dosn't have option to :

13) Erase the cache partition: either a) fastboot erase cache OR b) fastboot format cache <<== the second option seems to work better for most people. Thanks joostburg.

i must do that above right after flashing system.img, boot.img and recovery.img huh?

thanks
[Nexus 4 General] El Daddy:
16.0.2 is the latest, but 16.0.1 attached to the OP should be just fine.
[Nexus 4 General] El Daddy:
Make sure you have your drivers installed correctly. Check efrant's back to stock thread for instructions.
[Nexus 4 General] keviv77:
very sorry but i am not able to find his thread. will u please link me to stock recovery and command to flash it. now i am able to boot into bootloader. thanks alot
[Nexus 4 General] NeverBackDown:
Hi,

I was with stock rom, India version rooted. Unfortunately didn't receive ota.. So flashed the ota zip in recovery mode. But now Google play is unable to update or download applications..

Forgot to mention, I have skipped the rooting process.. Now I still have root access but unable to even access the recovery mode.

Can you guys please suggest what I can do now to fix these issues
[Nexus 4 General] vksdxtr:
Finally got this issue resolved using another thread on this forum and updated to 4.3.:good::victory:
[Nexus 4 General] El Daddy:
Nice! Would you mind letting us know what you did to fix the issue so others can see if they have the same issue? Thanks!
[Nexus 4 General] El Daddy:
I've read deleting your Google account and signing back in will fix it.
[Nexus 4 General] NeverBackDown:
Hi, thanks..

How can I delete the account. Also now I am unable to access recovery.. How to fix that.
[Nexus 4 General] El Daddy:
Settings>accounts/Google>click on your account>menu>remove account. Then re-add it.

What happens when trying to access recovery? Black screen or an android lying down?
[Nexus 4 General] NeverBackDown:
Android symbol with red triangle
[Nexus 4 General] vksdxtr:
until astTopea

I would refer anybody facing this issue to these 2 threads on the forum. Fix needs manual editing of the Android USB driver and and some amount of installing/uninstalling the device on Windows:silly:

oks guys now im stuck at the green android robot lying down with a RED triangle !!!! exclamtion mark! thanks

i tried volume up and power, nothing happens!

i think i lost root after i flashed system.img, boot.img and recovery.img
[Nexus 4 General] El Daddy:
Press them both at and let go at the same time.
[Nexus 4 General] keviv77:
please someone link me to stock recovery img file of 4.3. my connection is very slow it will take minimum 10hours for me to download complete stock img and then extract the stock recovery

[Nexus 4 General] NeverBackDown:
Hi, thanks a lot.. Removing account and re adding fixed the issue.. I will try the steps you told for recovery.

I have one more question. Why didn't I loose root access after flashing the ota
[Nexus 4 General] El Daddy:
I'm not sure. They're were more people who weren't able to get root access after the update. :)
[Nexus 4 General] itenos:
Nobody able to extract the libril.so file for me???

Thanks anyway...
[Nexus 4 General] marathone:
All this can be done without root, ie editing USB driver?
[Nexus 4 General] NeverBackDown:
That is what creating doubt in my mind. People are unable to get root access even after trying to get it.. But even though I skipped that step, still Root Access is present to me
[Nexus 4 General] keviv77:
isn't this file of 4.2.2. but i am on 4.3. CAN i FLASH this????
[Nexus 4 General] cobyman7035:
how do i install a custom recovery menu now? do i get ROOT first then i can do it? i tried volume up and power button same time and nothing happens, after while my phone just reboots up to the homepage launcher screen :(

man im such a noob, lol, ok im sideloading it now....im just scared to brick the nex4..but i think its all ok...so after this how do i get back my root and custom mod recovery?
[Nexus 4 General] vksdxtr:
The editing of the USB driver is on your PC:). So no root required.

Ok here's 4.3 recovery recovery.img - 6.58 MB

ok i sideloaded that mako.zip file renamed to update.zip but whne i restarted my phone again, i checked the about settings, and its only4.2.2? im confused...did i do the sideload correctly?
[Nexus 4 General] marathone:
Did you happen to install 1 of the 4.3 zips via recovery? As I understand it, that's the only way to keep root while upgrading 4.3 and/or a custom with su already slipstreamed.
[Nexus 4 General] NeverBackDown:
Hi,

Yes.. Using step 2..I thought even installing ota zip in recovery will also make me to loose root.
[Nexus 4 General] cobyman7035:

[Nexus 4 General] nithin1992:
If you want root on 4.2.2 simply install SuperSu by chainfire or Framaroot(gandalf exploit) app from play store and you can easily root it. Rooting cannot be done through installing an app in case of 4.3 as of now. But if your wanting root on 4.2.2 its really that simple as installing an app and clicking a button
[Nexus 4 General] marathone:
If you updated CWM to newest or used Open Recovery Script no. Wish I had done this rather than doing OTA on my Nexus 7. Ah well. :)
[Nexus 4 General] spicediablo:
My CWM doesn't stay after rebooting. I have selected both yes and no in the prompt but still the same. Help?

[Nexus 4 General] cobyman7035:
ya, i don't think mine stays either, i selected YES and that didn't work, i'm trying NO right now as we speak, but it takes so long to bootup my nex4

i hope it doesn't do this all the time, takes like 5mins at least

ok im on the mako 4.3 now and rooted! but im not sure if i still have CMW recovery menu when i reboot, now i will try to install franco kernel
[Nexus 4 General] nithin1992:
Rename the twrp recovery image file to customrecovery.img and place it in the adb fastboot folder.Then run fastboot boot customrecovery.img

Note: If you are running the latest bootloader (z20i), the command would be: fastboot -c "lge.kcal=0|0|0|x" boot customrecovery.img
[Nexus 4 General] keviv77:
isnt this command is just to boot into recovery not flash it.i was asking about flashing..
[Nexus 4 General] nithin1992:
No, its the right command. Accessing the recovery mode can be done by pressing the volume up/down key in fastboot mode untill you get the recovery option and press the power button when u do.

Google Pinyin IME deleted

I ended up deleting my GooglePinyinIME (Chinese) keyboard input a while back (it was supposed to be safe to remove). Now that I'm trying to upgrade to 4.3, it's trying to patch GooglePinyinIME.apk in the system/app folder. It isn't there so I get an error. It looks like there's also a GooglePinyinIME.odex that's also supposed to be in the same folder. Where can I get these two files so that I can upgrade?

Edit: OK, I had to download the factory image and extract it, but I got the update to work. GooglePinyinIME.apk can be downloaded at the location below. Had to use rootbrowser to put it in the system/app folder. Since I'm a newer user I can't post "outside" links. You'll have to remove the space between ht and tps in the link below in order to get to the link.

yes means it disables the recovery flash?

Cheers for this!

A solution to Status 7 errors:

It sounds like the "/system/bin/app_process" has been modified and so it doesn't match the signature required. There are 2 ways to fix this, either get a copy of the stock file from another phone/rom or flash the factory image for 4.3
[Nexus 4 General] spicediablo:
I had this problem too. You can flash it with this command

fastboot flash recovery name of customrecovery.img

Keeping Custom ROM as a backup?

Hi,

Pardon me for the noob question, but I've got to know this:

1. I am on ParanoidAndroid and I use it as my primary rom

2. I have backed up stock through CWM, and hence to get the OTA, I switched to this backup

3. I got the OTA update (its downloading as I type)

Now, as you can see I have a custom recovery and a custom ROM backed up with ALL MY DATA - theres no contacts/messages data [MENTION=428455]Stock[/MENTION].

I want to be able to switch between the updated Stock (4.3) and PA roms. Most probably I will continue using the PA setup.

So I need to make sure that updating through OTA will NOT erase my custom recovery and its backups and I will still be able to go back to my custom setup.

Thanks

TWRP and OTA

I am stock 4.2.2, unlocked bootloader, rooted, stock ROM, stock kernel. The only thing non-stock is TWRP, which I flashed a while back. I am reading conflicting posts about what will work. Will the OTA to 4.3 just work, or do I need to flash the stock recovery first, then run the OTA., then re-flash TWRP?
[Nexus 4 General] williamcharles:
thanks for the detailed tutorial. one thing i would like to ask is whether the bootloader and the baseband will also be flashed with this ota or do i need to flash it separately.

I'm getting an error installing the OTA update. It downloads the update, reboots, starts the update and than after a bit it just says ERROR and has the Android guy with his belly open. :( It was stock 4.2.2 with root, after I got that the first time I removed root and tried again, now I'm having the same issue. :(

edit: I'm unlocked too, looks like I'll have to re-root and just flash the .zip
[Nexus 4 General] filthykid:
What Play Store version are you using?
[Nexus 4 General] El Daddy:
It failed because there are modified files. You'll have to replaced those before the ota will complete.

Also, you don't need root to flash the ota.zip. You just need a custom recovery or you can adb sideload with the stock recovery.
[Nexus 4 General] Eclipsed830:
So I followed through with #1, and it went through the update process and everything, however I'm still on 4.2.2 :(

Hey guys and gals

So followed all of the steps for Full Stock Section A

When I get into the bootloader and enter recovery mode I selected Updated via the ADB.

When I get in there is android lying down says No Command which I believe is normal. When the prompt comes up saying "Now sen the pacjkage you want to apply to the device with "ADB sideload <Filename> I hear a triple ding from my PC as if a device via usb didn't connect properly.

I went to Device manager and when my phone is on the driver is installed properly and nothing is wrong but once I go into recovery and ADB update my nexus 4 becomes a "other device" and then ADB deivce doesn't show anything and the device becomes not found.

Anything I may be doing wrong... since they changed the Bootloader in stock for this adb thing it makes me feel like more a noob than I already am.
