You can't flash a backup ROM? Did you even backup your ROM before installing this update???

If recovery isn't working right just re-flash a new recovery.img through your boot loader using ADB.

Download the 4.4.2 OTA zip: http://www.droid-life.com/2013/12/09/android-4-4-2-apparently-rolling-out/

Reflash this ROM through ADB or if it's on the phone already do it through recovery. Install 4.4.2 zip through recovery. install SU zip file through recovery... reboot... you should be good to go.

Refer here if you need help...

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Jacob030:
Yeah, I have 4 backups. But Twrp won't restore. It says that it can't mount system...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] PhillyCheez:
Then reflash a new recovery.img through your boot loader. I use clockworkmod recovery so I can't help ya out if it's just a TWRP setting or something that I am missing.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bigxie:
I'd go into the bootloader and do the following:

fastboot format system

fastboot format cache

Then try again.

BTW, I've finished the 4.4.2 ROM and it should be finished uploading in about 30-45 minutes. I changed the updater script and binary so that it now wipes much faster and the whole installation process is ~30s. :D
[Nexus 5 Android Development] 5FOOTER:
Bigxie thanks for these ive seen a lot of questions about bootloader and if it should be installed also and will it relock if flashing the updated zip.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bigxie:
It doesn't hurt to install the bootloader update. It will not relock it. I'm in the process of updating the OP for 4.4.2. I will include the bootloader link as well, thanks for reminding me.

EDIT: OP updated, 4.4.2 is now available. Pretty much the same deal as before, wipe dalvik and cache if coming from stock 4.4 or 4.4.1. The install is much faster now, only about 30s. Enjoy!

Also, I noticed there were 18 downloads before the upload completed, better try again you guys ;)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] aNYthing24:
Thanks for the quick work!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Incredible_Culp:
Hmm.. just flashed this rom a few minutes ago lol (before the updated 4.4.2 -- i flashed the 4.4.1)

Havent received the OTA yet.. does it take time?

Cant remember the last time i OTA'd in all the years ive been rooting.. (lol) :p
[Nexus 5 Android Development] aNYthing24:
This one is rolling out a lot faster since it's a bugfix OTA mostly.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Pete182:
Ok to dirty flash over the 4.4.1 rom?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] aNYthing24:
As bigxie said, just wipe dalvik/cache and then flash.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hand76:
Can someone tell me where in twrp this is located:

"Do not allow your recovery to 'Prevent flashing stock recovery', as this will break SuperSU"
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bigxie:
It may prompt you after you choose to reboot, or it may be just in CWR. I honestly don't even remember haha.

I'll have the Mega mirror up when I get back from lunch.

Why would you lose root if it's built in?

Maybe it's different if you are flashing over your exiting rom and doing a clean install?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Jacob030:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] optimummind:
Applied your 4.4.2 update and bootloader over my stock rooted 4.4.1 with Xposed installer and modules left on and everything installed perfectly. Thx~! :D

Upon reboot, I just had to open Xposed installer and click on Install/Update and let the system reboot. Upon rebooting, all the Modules became active and all of my Module settings were restored.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] gaurav2009:
Updated thanks....please keep it up with this stock series :D
[Nexus 5 Android Development] aNYthing24:
You can still use the rooted version of App Ops. For now, Google has patched the way developers would get to it. I'm sure they'll figure out another way soon.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] omvir:
Do you have a link to it? I tried searching google play store for the root version. I'll try googling it right now as well.

Agreed

thx to OP and 4.4.2 working fine..

at least one improvement is in the auto-focus speed of the camera.. its somewhat faster than 4.4.1 which is much faster than 4.4..

[Nexus 5 Android Development] adrman:
Any need to switch back to Dalvik from ART before flashing?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] bigxie:
There were no changes to radio, bootloader, or recovery in 4.2.2, only system.

No, there shouldn't be. It will recompile the apps that are modified though (or all of them, if you wipe dalvik and cache), which will take up to 10 minutes on the first boot.

Running great with Franco r19 and ART. I flashed it over your 4.4.1 with the same setup, just wiped cache and Dalvik in cwm. The installation is much faster here. Just wondering if wiping Dalvik in recovery serves any purpose though if you're using ART? Thanks for your work!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mpmilestogo:
Just as an FYI. I had the 4.4.1 version of this ROM installed. I downloaded the OTA zip and flashed it in recovery. Then I flashed the latest superSU zip. It all works very well. I'm inclined to believe that you can get future OTA's the same way. Please correct if wrong but it seemed to work fine for me this last time.

I was using this ROM earlier today, but got a huge battery drain in 5 hours (10℅/hr). 4.4.1 was OK but not sure what happened with 4.4.2 and had to go back to Purity for now. Any one else have this problem?

Edit: forgot to mention Google Play Services was running in the background for over an hour.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Letitride:
I'm using TWRP, wiped dalvik cache & cache (did not wipe system or do Factory data reset as I should - coming from 4.4.1 KOT49E already running. Flash the zip file and reboot - everything is good, Play Store auto-updated 2 or 3 Apps to the latest afterward.

Did you do a recovery backup and/or TB backup? I would suggest going into your custom recovery & wipe at least dalvik cache, cache & maybe system/data reset, then re-flash the zip file again - it's time consuming to setup everything again, but it's laggy ...

Mine is running very smoothly with the upgrade. Good luck.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ibkevin:
As much as it stinks to re set up, I'd have to agree with this. Your best bet is to start fresh. I was on 4.4.1 with no lag and even though it wasn't necessarily needed, I factory reset, clean wiped, and then installed 4.4.2 with another fresh start and I've had no lag or problems so far at all. And I did even restore some apps with titanium. All is well and running super smooth.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] GH0571990:
Did anyone notice something weird with the status bar with the 4.4.2 update? Is it supposed to be part of the update or did that happen because I flashed a battery percentage mod? (see attached screenshot).
[Nexus 5 Android Development] jayb222:
Mine looks fine. Must be your battery percent mod.

I do like 4.4.2 and the new camera very much but I'm gonna flash back to 4.4 tonight. My battery has been draining extremely fast. I would usually get 15 through 18 hours with 4 hours on screen time average using bricked kernel. Today I was down to 8 percent in 6 hours with only 33 minutes on screen time. No difference in apps or anything. Something is definitely wrong.

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 Android Development] GH0571990:
Yeah it was the mod. Guess it wasn't optimized for 4.4.2 framework. Reflashed stock 4.4.2 with radio after dalvik/cache wipe and it is back to normal.

I haven't used the battery that extensively but so far I don't feel much of a difference coming from 4.4, and I'm getting pretty much the same battery time. I'll let it charge fully and see what's up. Did you flash the bootloader and radio with the stock 4.4.2 as well?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] jayb222:
I did flash the new radio then had horrible battery life then flaked back the old radio. Same result.

Started fresh (clean wipe) and installed 4.4.2. For some reason I cannot change my Google+ notification. And Google+ is acting weird overall. Get a notification for a new post in a group, click on the notification and it takes me to a completely different post. Tried force stopping, clearing data and still same issues.

Guys can you run this test for me? I am getting mad..

1) install any browser (dolphin browser or chrome in my case)

2) install dice player (or MX Player if it gets updated)

3) open youtube from browser and open a video

Does it ask to play it with dice player or does it just open stock browser player?

I don't have the option to "complete action using" dice player, it just opens stock in browser player and it sucks!

Try going to dolphin, stock player and dice player in app settings and clear defaults. This should get the prompt to show up if any.

You need to boot into fastboot and adb the file to the phone then boot back to recovery and flash or use adb to flash the zip

should not matter if you renamed it try flashing again without wiping and see if it works, if it fails redownload the rom and even update to newest version of your recovery via adb

Yo bigxie, I flashed this and it broke root. The file I got said it was odexed and signed. Did I download an unrooted update? I lost TWRP in the process as well so what's the easiest way to get all that back?

Thanks

My bad I flashed the wrong thing. It was my fault.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] mgdew:
Thanks for all the hard work.

Just for others really, I was on 4.4.1, followed instructions, wiped cache and dalvik cache, applied rom update and radio update(left bootloader out). All running, only issue is Email app, it crashes upon open, go into settings and my corporate account is not listed, try and add a new corporate account and it crashes, open the email app and you get to see remnants of my old email quickly before it crashes so think the account is still there somewhere just a bug (think a few others may have had this under 4.4.2 according to google searches).

tried to fix permissions in rom manager and reboot, problem still persists, so not a complaint just a warning for any others to consider, I rely heavily on my device for corporate email and calendar, so will roll back to my 4.4.1 backup.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] reefrunway:
Yep, was crazy bad for me. "Android OS" was accounting for a ridiculously large percentage of battery drain. I read in another thread to sign out of Google+ and force stop Hangouts, restart, and then turn those back on. I was desperate so I tried... And lo and behold, last two charges/drains have been back to normal (~12 hours of pretty heavy usage). Hopefully it'll work for you too!
