[MeMO Pad 7 General] Totty:
For everyone, that is unable to update your OTA files, i found a solution.

I do not have the credits myself, there was someone else that found this out, i cannot remember from who is it, but i believe it was someone on this forum.

I did find the links on 4PDA and the inscrutions aswell.

to fully upgrade KK you need OTAs - 191,198,199,201 - you need to flash them in order and flash every single one! You can flash them at one recovery session, it will update the tablet the correct way. Or you can just reboot after every single update, what suits you more.

!!! Im not responsible for anything that happens during/using these steps, you and only you are responsible to what happens, use with caution !!!

BEFORE WE START:

KK to LP update takes long time, make sure to be charged to atleast 50% of your battery! If your device powers off midway through any update, it will probably cause hard brick, making your device no more usable!

To update from KK to LP, you need to have the latest KK OTA, which is .201!

For the OTA updates, use the files from [me176c/x] [K013] Collection of ROMs and Updates - watchout for the .191 update, there are 2 links, from which only 1 is correct, .191 update should have 154MB.

There are some thing that will prevent you from updating

- root - should not prevent you from updating, i used the Root Zenfone app, from mentioned thread above, it did not prevent me from updating, but unrooted after KK to LP update

- xposed - not tested

- uninstalling system apps WILL 100% prevent you from updating (to revert that, install the .182 full ROM)

- freezing/disabling system apps SHOULD NOT prevent you from updating

For updating i used Temp CWM recovery, TWRP had some issues updating, if you get errors in TWRP, please consider using CWM.

Download the files respective to each OTA update from my google drive (Modified Update Scripts)

Extract the updater-scripts from the downloaded files to any folder and copy it

Download the OTA updates from this thread (first post)

Open update_XXX.zip\META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script with WinRAR and paste it (replace the original update-script)

WinRAR then has some options for compression and stuff, keep everything as it is

You do this to every single OTA you have - 191,198,199,201

Then move them to your internal storage on the device, or sdcard, whatever is better

power off your tablet and boot it up once again used POWER + VOLUME UP

Droid boot mode should appear, connect it to your PC

open launcher.bat inside Intel FBRL (cant share the link atm - google intel temp recovery)

follow the steps in your launcher.bat - ACCEPT, wait, 5 (cwm.zip), wait, T2 or T4 both works

Temporary CWM then should boot up on your device

make full factory reset data/cache/dalvik-cache

flash the modified OTA update from your intstorage/sdcard

when youre in the recovery already, you can flash every OTA you have, but in order - that means you flash 191, then 198, 199, 201, THEN REBOOT

wait for your tablet to finish the updates and boot up the system as normal

When you made it to .201 update (check in system settings, if thats correct), you can either stay on 4.4.2, or upgrade to 5.0

KITKAT TO LP UPDATE

download the file from official ASUS website, i used version .17, you should be able to go straight to the .36

MAKE SURE THE FILE YOURE DOWNLOADING HAS _KK (Kitkat to Lollipop) IN THE FILE NAME!

open the downloaded file, extract updater-script once again using WinRAR

(same location as before - XXX.zip\META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script)

delete the first 2 lines in the updater-script

getprop("ro.product.device") == "K013" || abort("This package is for \"K013\" devices; this is a \"" + getprop("ro.product.device") + "\".");

show_progress(0.750000, 0);

put the modified updater-script back into its original place, WinRAR asks once again for compression level and stuff, keep everything as it is

Move the modified update file to either the root interal storage or root of sdcard

your device should ask you to update in the notification bar, if it does not, try either rebooting the device or plugging/unplugging MTP cable to your PC, both should work

select the update, let it do its thing

For many things, including the modified updater-scripts, temp recovery and OTA files i used
