Yup that worked for me, you have to be on non-rooted first.

Flashing from recovery worked for me as well. non rooted 4.3 RUU

Only question is wasnt the app drawer supposed to be translucent in kitkat? mines still black like it was on 4.3

Remove root

Any way to remove the root from the rooted Ruu without the need to redownload the non rooted verision ?? I have a slow internet and it will take me a couple of hours to download the 400 mb...

Thanks in advance

I am rooted with SuperSU Pro

[One (M7) Android Development] pigr8:
nice, i had the 1.75 version non-Pro, had to redo all things and apply 1.75 manually from twrp

there is no Google Now on left screen. :eek:
[One (M7) Android Development] xperia x root:
with working root, i also got no problems installing the upddate. The 15.1 mb 4.3 ota seems to crash root rights and 4.4 ota wont work.

So if u got working root , 4.4 ota via recovery will also work.

for GEL (Google Launcher) you need to install the apk, then you will have the transparent bar

to activate the "Say Google" stuff you need to have GEL and system language set to English(US)

where can I find Google launcher apk?

---------- Post added at 05:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:40 PM ----------

No root lost.

after updating to 4.4 root access is gone (I paid for SuperSU pro to keep me on root but it didn't work this time :D)

I'll be home in like 20 minutes and will work on the updated RUU
[One (M7) Android Development] MrKaon:
will get the root back as SuperSU supports 4.4 just need to put back custom recovery flash the ZIP then flash stock recovery.

Problem is I am on Windows 8.1 and last time I couldn't do fastboot commands :silly:

Edit:

Thanks for launcher it worked perfectly

Why they didn't put in OTA in first place?

Edit 2:

I've got root back:

flash custom recovery (I used TWRP)

flash SuperSU zip

flash back stock recovery extracted from 4.4 OTA ZIP inside firmware.zip

So I have a converted HTC to GPE. I have TWRP recovery. I have been trying to sideload the 4.4 OTA via ADB Sideload within TWRP and am running into this error. Mind you I have updated to the 4.4 apps on my 4.3 One like most other Android users with little patience.

Any tips on getting this OTA to go through? Should I revert to the stock recovery? Is that a bad idea? Not sure how to go about that

I am uploading a 4.4 non rooted RUU now. I always upload while I test just in case it's good I just have to publish the link. I'm copying over the contents of my SD card to my computer since the RUU wipes out everything. If one of you brave souls wants to test it when its done uploading be my guest as it's going to take me longer to test since I have to wait for my sdcard contents to copy over. If you are willing to test.. Same info goes for the OP.. It wipes everything, including your SD Card. Have either the 4.3 RUU handy or a custom recovery you can flash in fastboot to flash something and fix it in the event something goes wrong
[One (M7) Android Development] stoned99:
I'm in to test it :D

Thanks!
[One (M7) Android Development] MrKaon:
You need stock recovery
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Here is a test version.. I HAVE NOT TESTED this yet.. I should be able to test in about 20 min. If you flash this be aware EVERYTHING gets wiped including your SD Card. Make sure you have either the 4.3 RUU or custom recovery and a way to recover in the event something goes wrong

[One (M7) Android Development] scotbotmosh:
I am guessing I can pull that out of the 4.4 OTA, the firmware.zip and flash that like flashing any other recovery. Is that correct? Thanks!
[One (M7) Android Development] MrKaon:
Yes

use this one from previous ota
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
My SD Card copy finished.. Flashing it now and so far so good.. It's not failing while it's flashing so that's a good sign.. now to see if it boots :P

Opps:: Nevermind it did fail... Don't flash that.. lol
[One (M7) Android Development] mrhtml:
JUST IN CASE ANYBODY WANT THE OTA this worked for me:

1) Flash 4.3 RUU using fastboot.

2) Flash stock recovery right after (1)

3) Reboot

4) Install 4.3 update

5) Search for updates

6) 4.4. KitKat available..

Doesn't seem to work when installing 4.3 using RUU, rebooting, installing 4.3 Update and then searching..

Update

Seems like the Google OTA update failed with the "broken android recovery" and following message "No command.".

Trying to restart results in "Error."

Dammit!
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Got it working :) Uploading a new version now.

Edit Also working on the pre-rooted version now
[One (M7) Android Development] Cpfoxhunt:
I appear to have rather stupidly applied the OTA update without first having installed the stock recovery. Which ended in the no command bootloop thing for me, although I can get into fastboot.

Don't suppose there's any way I get out of this with my data intact? I have now belatedly flashed stock recovery as per the OP, is it worth trying to sideload the OTA update?
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Testing pre-rooted... and....booting.......and.... Root is there :) Uploading as soon as the Unrooted version is done uploading

[One (M7) Android Development] stephenwilley:
I'm in the same position and I figure it's worth a go so I'm gonna try it. I'm a muppet so I didn't nandroid beforehand (let this be a lesson to you all) so I'm just doing an adb pull /data now before trying.
[One (M7) Android Development] Cpfoxhunt:
If you manage to get adb going, I'd appreciate it if you could let me know how!
[One (M7) Android Development] stephenwilley:
I might not be able to help you with that since that never broke on mine. I installed the OTA update using adb sideload from inside CWM recovery and although I got the cyan screen recovery never broke. If you've got fastboot access, you should be able to fastboot flash recovery <whatever> and boot back into it to get adb if you want to do the same and pull your /data off.
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:

[One (M7) Android Development] N345H:
Might just give this a spin, thanks for the great work as always :)
[One (M7) Android Development] stephenwilley:
For anyone else who made the same mistake (applied OTA with a custom recovery and ended up at the cyan screen) this worked for me:

(Optionally first do an adb pull of /data if you want to backup your stuff and learn to nandroid in future)

Boot to bootloader and enter fastboot

Flash the stock google recovery that's in the firmware.zip in the OP

Apply the OTA zip again from phone storage

It'll reboot a bunch of times and you'll end up with KitKat

Hope it helps.
[One (M7) Android Development] Cpfoxhunt:
Of course, I was hitting problems because I forgot that it had re-locked the phone when I installed the GPE edition first time around. Thanks!

And a huge thanks to graffixnyc as well for all his work on this!

Oh and if anyone fancies taking pity on me and telling me how to adb pull my whatsapp folder from my sdcard, that would be awesome.

i did this when i first got my phone but from my understanding from the forums is that your cid and mid is what determines when you get updates. i flashed the ruu and everything and it works fine and i have s-off. my mid is all 0's and my cid is t-mob010. do i need to change anything to recieve OTA's?

[One (M7) Android Development] ach1:
Just to clarify..

I'm currently on a 4.3 custom recovery - in order to get 4.4 OTA, I would have to flash 4.3 stock recovery, let it update and then flash the 4.4 recovery from the firmware zip file right ? Or would I lose root access in doing that last step?

Is the easiest way to restore all your data after RUU Flashing is to install custom recovery and restore Data?

which supersu did you use 1.65 or 1.75?
[One (M7) Android Development] MrKaon:
you flash stock recovery get it from inside firmware.zip in the previous ota

you will get 4.4 OTA and update your phone.

will lose root.

flash custom recovery and SuperSU.zip

will get your root back.

flash again stock recovery fined in latest 4.4 OTA

[One (M7) Android Development] andyt315:
I am about going to flash RUU 4.4. But I have some questions to make sure before I do this.

1.

So by going to flash RUU, it will erase everything according to first post.

This meaning it will erase my TWRP recovery as well as my backup in TWRP recovery? If so, I guess I have to backup into my PC.

2.

In order to receiving OTA updates from Google, you need to have stock recovery? So by flashing RUU, it will pre-installing stock recovery for you.

3.

After install RUU, I can install my custom recovery like TWRP. Anyone know if the TWRP touch driver works fine on this RUU 4.4?

Thank you.
[One (M7) Android Development] badpanda:
how can I properly change or modify the android-info.txt file in the zip to match my MID/CID to be able to properly flash RUU? thank you for helping out. :) :good::good:
[One (M7) Android Development] CheesyNutz:
yes back up your SDCARD you will loose everything if not !

i think so but yo can flash the stock recovery from fastboot simple enough

you can i have read nothing about touch drivers problems but with custom recovery if there is an ota you will not get be able to flash it
[One (M7) Android Development] Scyke:
It works! I can't believe it was something as simple as that
[One (M7) Android Development] sil3nt_trill:
"ok google" still isn't working even after i updated the english package. i just flashed the 4.4 RUU stock and can't get it to work at all

[MENTION=5444018]sil3nt_trill[/MENTION] no you have to install GEL (Google Experience Launcher) for "OK Google" to work
[One (M7) Android Development] qixiixiq:
ART

I am not sure why i got the first 15mb OTA update from the intial 4.3 RUU install and not the 4.4 update. Now i manually installed the 4.4 RUU and i want to enable ART - ive seen that ART improved performance and battery life but am not sure about stability issues.

basically, is it safe to disable the Dalvik and enable the Android Run Time or can there be serious consequences?

Thanks:confused:
[One (M7) Android Development] zmanw330:
Im on cm 10.1 now -but shouldnt matter

[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Quick question guys.. I know when the 4.3 OTA dropped people were saying that they were getting it without changing the CID to the GE CID. Did anyone that didn't have the GE CID get the OTA?

Hi,

do I have an expensive brick?

A month ago did a conversion to rooted 4.3 GE, flashed stock recovery. Everything went fine.. Downloaded that 4.4 305MB .zip, entered Android system recovery, tried to flash from phone storage. That failed as it was rooted 4.3. Then I did "wipe data/factory reset" :silly: Now i get looping reboot with exclamation mark on lying robot.. I can enter Android system recovery.I even conected USB host cable with USB flash drive and managed to see files on it by choosing "apply form sd card". What is the propper way to recover device? Thanks
[One (M7) Android Development] Jibreil:
Flashed the Rooted one. Everything working fine.

Installed Google Experience Launcher, works fine but the voice action "OK, Google" doesn't work, If anyone has a workaround please let me know.
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
You have to check you CID. Looking at the info.txt file in the OTA zip your MID and CID must match what's in this list:

modelid: PN0710000

modelid: PN0711000

modelid: PN0712000

modelid: PN0713000

modelid: PN0714000

modelid: PN071****

cidnum: 11111111

cidnum: T-MOB010

cidnum: CWS__001

cidnum: BS_US001

cidnum: GOOGL001

mainver: 3.58.1700.5

If your CID is not one of the bold ones you have to change it. Why didn't you just let the OTA if you were bone stock? Why flash it through recovery? Also.. you're phone is a converted GE correct? Not a real GE?
[One (M7) Android Development] M Diddy:
You simply need to update your Offline Speech Recognition under Google Now - Settings -Voice.

Once you update that, it'll work just fine.
[One (M7) Android Development] Jibreil:

[One (M7) Android Development] Cpfoxhunt:
I believe (having done something similar) that if you go into fastboot, you should be able to flash the version in the OP via USB. When you restart the phone into the fastboot menu (hold power until it flashes and turns off, then hold power and volume down) and plug it in, do fastboot commands work?
[One (M7) Android Development] EddyOS:
Not sure if this is an issue with the OP, but the non-rooted RUU has SuperSU in it and boots with no lockscreen
[One (M7) Android Development] FitAmp:
No lockscreen is there because lockscreen is set to none in settings. I switched it to slide and then it worked fine.

Anyone able to provide a mirror for the pre-rooted 4.4 RUU as the current link is blocked at my work?

[One (M7) Android Development] EddyOS:
I know, but that is not the default action in Android so I'm guessing the OP made the RUU with it disabled by mistake - or that's what I'm assuming! Doesn't explain the presence of SuperSU in the non-rooted RUU though...

[MENTION=3537886]graffixnyc[/MENTION] can you take a look?
[One (M7) Android Development] synt3k:
FYI, I updated successfully to the pre-rooted 4.4, but it was not pre-rooted, I needed to flash TWRP to install the latest SuperSU 1.75.
[One (M7) Android Development] EddyOS:
Sounds like the links are the wrong way round cause the non-rooted RUU has SuperSU in it!
[One (M7) Android Development] picard47:
A serious question: There are some pre-rooted GE Firmwares like this one here.

But what use I have of root when the r/w security within the kernel isn't disabled?

There are plenty of apps which needs root to change system files (adaway e.g.) but without r/w support it doesn't work after all.

Or am I wrong?
[One (M7) Android Development] ach1:
I've flashed 4.3 stock recovery, have GOOGL001 cid, disabled SuperSu 1.75 and it still says there are no new updates ??
