Just follow up of my upgrade process.

I used the #102 zip from [MENTION=1566190]efrant[/MENTION].

All is OK.

The only thing, and as weird as it sound, that I lost is... : the wallpaper that I had was gone after rebooting. I know it's totally weird but that's the only thing "I had lost" after the rebooting from TWRP flashing JWR66Y. I have the stock launcher. Anyway that's it.

All my data / settings are still here and all is working fine. Pictures are still in sdcard and appear in Gallery.app.

Anyway, enjoy your JWR66Y build guys !
[Nexus 4 General] rasengan82:
I wonder what are the changes to 66Y. Waiting for Google to say something.

[Nexus 4 General] SinisterSHO:
I just read thru like 200 posts and read 3 different ways to do this.

I received the ota, but since I am rooted with LTE enabler flashed, it failed. What is the easiest way to flash the update without having to re-root?
[Nexus 4 General] :
Running stock 4.3 & Franco's kernel, can someone post the steps for the update? Thanks a lot.
[Nexus 4 General] sordna:
Try the zip from the below post, which works with custom recovery and custom kernel, and preserves root too. Only catch is you have to use a custom recovery to install it, works with both CWM and TWRP:

edit - guessing it has to do with me deleting system applications using TV. is there a way to bypass the issue or do I have to flash 4.3 all over again?
[Nexus 4 General] Blockberd:
It has to do with deleting such apps. If you have deleted alot of those apps, you better flash the *img files from the JWR66Y factory image one after another manually. That should do it.
[Nexus 4 General] :
No way around it? reverting back to full stock for a 2mb update seems like a waste of time :/
[Nexus 4 General] Blockberd:
By flashing the image files of JWR66Y build you dont need to OTA anymore. But you need to delete/disable the apps again.
[Nexus 4 General] spaceman860:
Just flash the system and boot IMG from JWR66Y in fastboot and your done.

[Nexus 4 General] Tricepz:
What about the radio? not needed?
[Nexus 4 General] spaceman860:
The radio and bootloader are the same as in JWR66V so no need to update

BLACKED OUT LTE N4
[Nexus 4 General] Tricepz:
Great, just to make sure that i wont make any mistake my build is: stock rom, rooted + franco's kernel.

Going into TWRP, flashing the system and boot images only and i should be good to go? (im pretty sure i have a few user-apps that i switched to system apps) the system.img wont mess them up?
[Nexus 4 General] spaceman860:
You can only flash the system and boot IMG in fastboot not your recovery. The apps you moved to system will be removed.

[Nexus 4 General] Tricepz:
Accidently said recovery, of course i meant fastboot, thanks i'm gonna try it right now and come back in a few to update.
[Nexus 4 General] doublewings:
I, like some others, didn't install JWR66V and is still on JDQ39. Will I be able to get OTA of JWR66Y or stuck on 4.2,2 instead?

Um, well, my N4 got the info on the update on System Updates screen, but it says "Waiting to download: 1,8 MB ; through Wi-Fi only until Aug 25th"

Thanks. Does that also mean by not installing JWR99V, I won't get any more update over the air, at least for JWR99Y, and have to perform it manually?
[Nexus 4 General] Tricepz:
Just an update, successfully updated, i'm just wondering if this was so necessary since the update is so small and the changelog doesn't state any MAJOR updates, meh i just like to be on the latest build everytime.. :fingers-crossed:

Changelog:

http://funkyandroid.com/aosp-JWR66V-JWR66Y.html
[Nexus 4 General] Blockberd:
There is an update from JDQ39 to JWR66Y. The actual name of the update is

c4df9c73413d21aa41e57b9abb2b6786162d9e72.signed-occam-JWR66Y-from-JDQ39.c4df9c73.zip

and can be downloaded here:

http://android.clients.google.com/p...2.signed-occam-JWR66Y-from-JDQ39.c4df9c73.zip

Normally Android should prompt you soon-ish with an update notification. But you can also flash above update if you wish to go to 4.3 JWR66Y.
[Nexus 4 General] sordna:
Better to disable system apps (stock android feature) instead of deleting them in the future, then you won't have this trouble.
[Nexus 4 General] efrant:
QFT!
[Nexus 4 General] ernadr:
If this acceptance'll lose root right?
[Nexus 4 General] RoliSoft:
You shouldn't, as it's only a minor upgrade. The 1.8 MB (if I recall correctly) OTA package doesn't have the whole /system, so it means it's keeping whatever you currently have, that includes the su binary. Unless they intentionally remove it, which is unheard of as far as I know.

Try turning on OTA survival in SuperSU just in case.
[Nexus 4 General] efrant:
It won't install if you have root. See instructions in the OTA Help Desk thread
[Nexus 4 General] menaceinc:
Sorry for the late reply. I have since fixed the problem by fastboot flash the factory image. The error message was something about the proxy, it was related to my installed ASOP browser which had overwritten some system file.

Thanks again.
[Nexus 4 General] cooljeba:
That seem to work I guess..
[Nexus 4 General] VyktorJonas:
is there a zip file with full system for flashing 66Y in CWM?
[Nexus 4 General] BigDig:
No, you have to fastboot flash

N4 4.3+Franco+LTE
[Nexus 4 General] VyktorJonas:
too lazy for that, better wait for 5.0
[Nexus 4 General] BigDig:
That's even easier than CWM just download the system.IMG, fastboot flash system.IMG, done

N4 4.3+Franco+LTE
[Nexus 4 General] bijixda:
If you extract the zip, there are many files updated to /system but in "differential" format. So the zip is only 1.8mb
[Nexus 4 General] zombi333:
I successfully update my nexus 4 to JWR66Y .... but the problem is i still get the notification that OTA update is ready.... How do i get rid of that :(

[Nexus 4 General] ImbaWind:
Thanks for your review, can you give me the stock SystemUI.apk of JWR66Y?
[Nexus 4 General] dijit4l:
Speaking of the stock build.prop, I am having a hell of a time trying to extract it from the JWR66V system.img and I cannot locate it anywhere online. Does anyone have the 4.3 JWR66V build.prop?

Many thanks in advance.
[Nexus 4 General] sordna:
ok, here it is attached, I compressed it to avoid any whitespace corruption
[Nexus 4 General] dijit4l:
Thank you so much, but just as I received the email notification that you quoted me, I learned that one must run the EXT4 Unpacker as an administrator. So, I got it unpacked, but hopefully this will help others.

Thanks! :)
[Nexus 4 General] sordna:
Yes. On linux I used this python script simg2img.py to unpack system.img
[Nexus 4 General] nexom:
Don't know if it's been mentioned, but I've noticed the screen doesn't stutter when I lock and unlock since the update. You gotta appreciate the little things!

Bumpgrade and retain LTE

If you are stock, rooted, and have LTE enabled with a hybrid radio, here are my instructions on bumpgrading from JWR66V to JWR66Y that I have pieced together from this thread:

1. Revert your build.prop back stock 4.3 JWR66V since it was modified by the amazing All-In-One LTE Enabler. If you need to download the stock build.prop, sordna was nice to post it.

2. Copy build.prop to your device and using the file explorer of your choice that allows you to modify /system (I used ES File Explorer with Root Explorer enabled), navagate to /system and rename the old build.prop (I renamed mine build.prop.lte.jwr66v).

3. Navigate to where you saved the stock build.prop and paste it to /system.

4. Before continuing, ensure you have the LTE Enabler zip saved to your N4.

5. Now follow CrazyPeter's instructions.

6. WITHOUT rebooting, flash the LTE enabler. If you have previously enabled LTE, I didn't notice that any LTE settings had changed on my N4.

7. I am not sure if this is necessary, but I cleared my Cache and Dalvik Cache and then rebooted.

I hope this helps people who were in the same situation as me and just wanted to patch the OS and not re-flash partitions.
[Nexus 4 General] hgmichna:
But this is certain to cause another problem in the future.

Remove that file, as described above and in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2417012 .
[Nexus 4 General] efrant:
No it will not. That file is not even part of the stock ROM.
[Nexus 4 General] NYZack:
FYI, I did not have to re-flash the LTE Enabler to get LTE to stick after reverting build.prop to its original. The changes that were made to settings.db in com.android.providers.settings stuck, and this was all I needed.
[Nexus 4 General] dijit4l:
Interesting. Since build.prop gets changed by the LTE enabler, I figured that build.prop would need to be modified again after replacing the stock build.prop, but I am unaware of when build.prop gets accessed by the device. Does it get accessed at start up, during an update, or when needed?
[Nexus 4 General] NYZack:
I believe, though I'm not sure, that the settings (at least the LTE settings) in build.prop are only accessed after a factory reset, at least on stock ROM.
[Nexus 4 General] efrant:
On every boot.
[Nexus 4 General] mattgren:
Worked perfectly - Cheers! :highfive:
[Nexus 4 General] toews:
Hi, I did these steps but I get an error every time I try installing the ZIP through TWRP. I currently have LTE enabled (used the all-in-one enabler) but before trying to install it I flashed back to the stock .84 modem.

This is what I did:

1) Turned off system and flashed .84 modem

2) Turned on, downloaded the zip of JWR66Y and SuperSU zip to my Downloads folder

3) Turned off, booted into TWRP recovery

4) Tried installing the JWR66Y zip and it fails (gives me an error).

Can someone suggest steps to try and fix this?

Here is a picture of the error: http://oi43.tinypic.com/k2019i.jpg
[Nexus 4 General] hgmichna:
Yes, you are right. Actually what will cause problems in the future is SuperSU (unless they fix the damned thing). If you already remove it completely, my recommendation is to install a different one afterwards, the best probably being Superuser by ClockworkMod, which is open-source, another advantage for a program as security-sensitive as this.
[Nexus 4 General] spaceman860:
You have to change your build prop back to stock. It gets modified when you use LTE. Someone posted it 1 or 2 pages back.

BLACKED OUT LTE N4
[Nexus 4 General] toews:
Ah, thank you :) Worked great
[Nexus 4 General] nikonjunkie:
Thank you so much to you and CrazyPeter! Up and running with 66Y and every customization I've made since 66V. Got my LTE, got my stock browser, got everything the way it was with 66V, and that was simple to follow. :good:

[Nexus 4 General] clusterchuck:
My update/flashing failed. I'm assuming it's because I un installed some system apps (Google Earth, G+, etc.) Do I have to flash the whole image to get the apps back?
[Nexus 4 General] efrant:
Interesting. Thanks for that. So, in essence, there is no difference - - the recoveries are exactly the same from a features/functionality perspective.

It would be the easiest way if you flashed the system.img in fastboot, yes.
[Nexus 4 General] ernadr:
I install it successful but I lost root and costume recovery.

Root again with Wog's toolkit in 1 minute :sly:
[Nexus 4 General] kzoodroid:
I lost root and custom recovery also, Superuser and CWM, when I accepted the OTA. I think this only happens if you actually get the OTA and aren't flashing a downloaded version off the net. Some people with the exact same set up reported that they retained root and CWM after an install.
[Nexus 4 General] spaceman860:
If boot into recovery and flash the update then the su zip right after without rebooting then you won't lose root or custom recovery.

If you accept the ota from the notification panel you will lose root and recovery

BLACKED OUT LTE N4
[Nexus 4 General] kzoodroid:
That's what I figured. CWM gave me the option to retain root but it didn't work. It was easy enough to restore and you can never get too much practice using fastboot in my opinion.
[Nexus 4 General] Blockberd:
QFL! :)
[Nexus 4 General] hgmichna:
Not true. The OTA update doesn't care about root.

What is true is that it won't install if you run SuperSU, because that app blocks all OTA updates.

The workaround is to unroot and remove it entirely, for which it luckily has a function. Then wait for the OTA update or flash it manually.

After the update you might as well install a different superuser program that does not cause this problem, like Superuser by ClockworkMod. Flash http://download.clockworkmod.com/superuser/superuser.zip instead.
[Nexus 4 General] berliner_doch:
Error

Hi, I can not apply the OTA because it gives me an error. Something is wrong with core.odex. What can I do to fix this issue?

TWRP log in attach.
[Nexus 4 General] efrant:
Yes, I should have said: "it won't install if you have root via Chainfire's SuperSU". (I was speaking based on my useage, as I have been using SuperSU, given that was the only one that worked on JRW66N - Chainfire updated it almost immediately after JRW66N was leaked. Koush's Superuser had not been updated until after JWR66V was released.)
[Nexus 4 General] sordna:
The easiest way is to flash the stock system.img. You'll just lose root (andy maybe busybox or other stuff you may have done in your /system).

Why do you delete these apps? In android 4.x (since ICS) you can disable them in the settings/apps menu and they don't run neither appear as icons.
[Nexus 4 General] kzakhar:
Guys, I've been checking for system updates for the last week, but this update has never shown up. I'm running fully stock, no root or anything. Am I doing something wrong?
[Nexus 4 General] bozzykid:
It can take weeks to roll out to everyone. Also make sure you check while on wifi as they don't allow mobile OTAs for quite a while after release.
[Nexus 4 General] kzakhar:
Thanks for your response! I always check while on WiFi, but it would seem I'll just have to wait some more :)
[Nexus 4 General] hgmichna:
I believe it does not matter where you check. The download runs invisibly in the background anyway, regardless of checking.

The check only offers the update if it is already completely downloaded (in /cache).
[Nexus 4 General] LePeR1898:
If you clear the "Google Services Framework" app data it should find the update
[Nexus 4 General] sordna:
only do that if you have titanium or something to back up that data. Because clearing "Google Services Framework" often produces a bug that won't allow you to download anything from the play store:

http://androidforums.com/nexus-7/743895-cant-download-google-play-error-rpc-s-5-aec-0-a.html

without a backup, the only fix is to remove and re-add your google account to the phone.

Better wait for the OTA, it's not that you are missing any features or anything. Other options is to manually download and flash the OTA zip file which has been posted here on xda.
[Nexus 4 General] wideasleep1:
I can confirm the Framework bug, it's a hassle. Simply download the update from the many threads here, and flash.

I honestly thought that was the only way to keep them from running. And plus since I only have a 8gb, I try to salvage all the space I can.
[Nexus 4 General] hgmichna:
Fortunately these apps are tiny, even compared to 8 GB. The problem with deleting them is the problem you experienced—some OTA updates may not run without them, because they try to patch them.

Have you meanwhile found a way to get the update? If not, I guess your most likely way is to flash the newest system.img directly.
[Nexus 4 General] Blockberd:
If he comes from 4.2.2 he has to flash at least the boot.img, too. Everything done with fastboot.

We need to know the entire error message before we can help...
[Nexus 4 General] sordna:
deleting system apps does NOT save you any space

What you delete from the /system partition will not affect your available disk space, since the partition size is fixed. Your writeable partition will not be affected, unfortunately. So you are going into trouble for no benefit whatsoever.

Only updates to system apps go to your data partition, so to save space uninstall any system app updates, and then disable your system apps. You don't need any "root" operation to achieve this, it's all standard android functionality.
[Nexus 4 General] clusterchuck:
Unfortunately I haven't. I have been searching for a method that wouldn't require a computer, but it doesn't seem that there is one.
[Nexus 4 General] sordna:
There is, as long as you make nandroid backups. When I install an update, I take a backup of the new stock kernel, system, etc, so even if I make modifications later, I have the stock stuff on my phone so I can restore them from TWRP. So when next OTA comes along, I can restore the backups I marked stock, apply the OTA, take a new "stock" backup, and then put back my custom stuff.

I almost never use a computer. To flash kernels and recoveries I use Flash Image GUI and Recovery Tools apps, and to flash system I use TWRP.
[Nexus 4 General] efrant:
I'm sure there are a few stock ROMs in the development section. Just flash one of those.
[Nexus 4 General] clusterchuck:
I actually found a work around. I found a 4.3 gapps zip and simply extracted all the apps I uninstalled back into the system folder. Cleared my frameworks, unrooted, dl'ed the OTA update and installed it. Everything went smoothly. Thanks for you guys help. ^_^
[Nexus 4 General] SinisterSHO:

[Nexus 4 General] efrant:
Nope, that doesn't help. Need the entire line that starts with "Assert failed:"
[Nexus 4 General] Blockberd:
Actually he just would need to flash system.img, boot.img and maybe radio.img from the factory image in fastboot mode. That should do the same, shouldn't it?!

But we could also try to figure out every single stock apk he changed to replace it with the proper stock one again... ;)
