Thanks for the info! I had not looked into these details. This indeed looks much better than what I had thought.

It did not work for me though. The wrong debuggerd had blocked my 4.2.2 to 4.3 OTA update. And I have seen more than one other complaint about debuggerd blocking OTA updates, so the suspicion lingers that the restoration procedure is unreliable. We will probably not be able to get to the bottom here and now, so we will have to let the matter rest until somebody comes forward with a fresh case and analysis.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hgmichna:
Android phones download OTA updates in the background and offer the update only after the OTA file has been downloaded completely.

Do you have a fast Internet connection? I have no idea what strategy the phone uses to download OTA files. It could be that the phone first waits for a Wi-Fi connection and attempts to use mobile phone Internet only after it did not find any Wi-Fi connection for a while. Even then it could be that it prefers HSDPA connections over EDGE or GPRS. It could be that multiple download attempts over slow connections lead to file corruption, if that system is poorly designed. But this is all speculation. I don't know how reliable the download mechanism is, and I don't know what download strategy Android follows.

I also have a case here where a phone runs stock 4.2.1 unrooted (came from Samsung repair that way a week ago) and is still waiting for three OTA updates that should be pending. If anybody here knows more about the OTA update strategy and its reliability or lack thereof, please don't let us die unknowing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adeelhayat90:
Yes I have a fast Internet connection wifi 2mbps. Fast enough for me atleast. And also that update has only 1.8mb. I remember updating my brother's samsung s4 313mb on the same wifi network.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hgmichna:
Thanks! Interesting.

But there are lots more questions. How does the device decide when to perform the download? How do the devices learn that there is a new update in the first place? After the download, when did the device offer the upgrade to the user? Why do some devices not offer the upgrade? If the user rejects the update offer, when does the device offer the update again? What happens when the download gets interrupted? Etc., etc.

I don't remember ever reading any explanation of any of this from Google or anywhere else. I fear that nobody knows the answers to most of these questions. Let's at least find out which experiences we have. I can state that some identical devices get the same update only days after others. And some devices don't seem to get older updates after a long time, more than a week, or perhaps never. Why? And what can be done against that?

Some people say that erasing the data of the Google Services Framework can get a missing OTA update going, but that would mean that the whole OTA update mechanism is defective and unreliable. Wouldn't actually surprise me, but I'd like to know for sure.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kerpert:
I had the same problem with the last mini-update of 4.3.

Followed your indication and all gone fine. In the end I have had to root again because the permissions were lost.

Thank you marcars!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adeelhayat90:
Thanks I updated through adb sideload but I'm just curious to know if the OTAs still work if your bootloader is unlocked and everything else is still stock
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
yes why would it care if the bootloader is unlocked?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dbenyakar:
Just wanted to make sure I understand what you mean.

The script is below:

PATH=%PATH%;"%SYSTEMROOT%\System32"

fastboot oem unlock

fastboot erase boot

fastboot erase cache

fastboot erase recovery

fastboot erase system

fastboot erase userdata

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-tilapia-4.23.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

ping -n 10 127.0.0.1 >nul

fastboot flash radio radio-tilapia-1231_0.18.0_0409.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

ping -n 10 127.0.0.1 >nul

fastboot -w update image-nakasig-jwr66y.zip

echo Press any key to exit...

pause >nul

exit

You mean erase the red colour portion of the command?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] marcars:
no only erase "-w" for N4. But for Nexus 7 you must erase "fastboot erase userdata" too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wstr:
This helped me....

I have a rooted 4.3 Galaxy Nexus. For two times I got the OTA to JWR66Y. I tried to install it from the notification, but after the restart and the install slider arrived at 100% (or near) I got the ERROR. I had to replace the battery to return the phone working.

I received the 3th notification for the OTA. First I did:

Connectbot -> local

su

mount -o remount,rw /system

cd /system/etc

chattr -i install-recovery.sh

mv install-recovery.sh {new-name.sh} - ;) I don't like removing things I don't know or understand very well ;)

exit

exit

After that, I confirmed the OTA install in the notification and all went OK.

Settings -> About phone -> Build Number = JWR66Y.

I have only to re-root it now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Garymeister:
Hi, I am in the same boat. TWRP seemed to start flashing the 1.8MB zip but then stopped so I rebooted into system. No more "system update" notices, says my phone is up to date, but it still says JWR66V not "Y"?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
Download the OTA update zip from the available thread and try again after reading other people's steps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hgmichna:
To my current knowledge you now have a partly patched system, which still looks unpatched. The OTA update stalled, probably because you have SuperSU installed.

My recommendation would be to completely unroot with SuperSU's respective function, then flash the OTA update again. It should still be in /cache .

Then reroot by flashing either Superuser by ClockworkMod or SuperSU.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Garymeister:
Did exactly that, no luck.

Update: Got it! I had modded soft keys... Well I have the updated SuperSU v1.55 and root. Downloading the jwr66y update file, it led me to Flashify where I used twrp to install it, and voila!

Scratch that, lost root and recovery. I have an android with a red exclamation mark. Is that the price to pay?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Garymeister:
Now I tried fastboot flashing twrp but even after that I get the red exclamation over an open android. Do I need factory images or what, help?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hgmichna:
Just reroot, like you did the first time. Your bootloader is already unlocked, so you can skip that and keep your apps and data.

Flash superuser.zip or the equivalent for SuperSU. That should already give you root rights. Then you can flash your favorite recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Garymeister:
I did it a slightly different method, but thanks. I didn't know you could flash SuperSU without a custom recovery?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AHLASSICH:
OTA to 4.3 failed to install

I have a Google Play Edition GT-I9505G that is Rooted and has TWRP as the custom recovery. I received the 4.3 update but it does not install. When I tell it to apply the update, it reboots into TWRP. I don't know what to do from there so I just reboot.

How do I install the update? I tried copying the OTACERTS.ZIP to my sdcard and tried to apply the zip from TWRP but it failed. What do I have to do to get it to work? Do I have to install the stock recovery before it will work? I can't seem to find the stock firmware let alone the recovery. :( Can someone give me link to download the full odin flashable stock firmware that also contains the stock recovery or even just the stock recovery.?

I don't care if I have to re-root.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Garymeister:
You will have to re root regardless. I'm on the latest KitKat now, and I believe flashing the latest twrp enabled me to directly update without stock recovery which is fantastic. 4.3 was a while ago and I was on stock recovery then. I had to reflash twrp and supersu afterwards. It reboots you in to twrp because that's where you install updates, through any recovery on the phone. Put the update file on your SD card and flash it. It will be located in the system somewhere; I cannot recall exactly where. It'll be labeled as "update" about 1.8MB. You can probably find all files by now if you dig a little more.
[LG Optimus G Pro] play2lose:

Downloaded a deodexed firmware and extracted it from there but it turned out to be the Korean version which has a different boot animation. Got the AT&T firmware but it's just a .tot don't know how to extract that and don't want to flash it just for the bootanimation.

So many users have now started using CM10 and Cm10.1 based ROMS as their daily drivers and I believe it is time for us to compile a list of Mods that are compatible with these.

I myself started using Devswift's XNovathor ROm and found that it was extremely fast and smooth, but I still missed my Walkman

Now having a smooth Rom was more important than a few apps, So i decided to find ports :p:D

So, here we go:

-ZU Walkman, Album,Movies apps

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1804609

I have tested the walkman, Sound enhancements do work,So does ClearAudio+!

Album and Movies work too!

Note:

Though it is said that BE2 is included I cannot confirm it works,because I have never realised the difference and have found no explicit setting either.

Also,if album does not show pictures, force stop and clear data

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dante3hs:
Recently my phone has started to beep several times, the exact same beep beep that occurs with the low power warning, but will happen over and over while plugged in while around the 14% battery mark. Will repeat the 2 beeps about 5-10 times. This is while plugged in and charging, and I've tried a different charger but still had the same issue.

To me it seems like it will hit 14%, beep twice, then drop back down, beep twice, drop back down, etc. Seems weird though. My phone is running orio one 6.2a, with the latest clockwork touch recovery. Haven't had any battery issues (though it does seem to charge extremely slowly when in use, to the extent that my phone can actually die while on charge), can generally last a full day with moderate to high usage, so yea... Any ideas that could either fix or explain why this is occurring would be highly appreciated.

I am currently using m2000 with my 64k CINGULAR SIM and everytime when I get out of subway it took my phone a good 2+ minutes to search and and once it registered, my m2000 has roaming indicator on.

I am currently using ROM 1.31 and Radio 1.13 and I have tried it with new 1.4 rom and that didn't solved my problem either.

Is there anyway to get a work around for this? I had sx66 and H6315(unlocked) and both of them didn't have any trouble searching for Cingular network (less than 20 secs).
