Hi all,
I've unlocked the bootloader on my Nexus One.
I got the message that there was a new froyo update. When I try to install I got this error: "Verficiation failed".
Is there a way to install this new update, like a force on the verficition check or installing the official bootloader again?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Dirk
Do you have a custom recovery?
?
From what I've read you may not want to update, being the main fix is to disable/make it more difficult to root. You may want to for your own reasons, idk. Just putting it out there.
First, thanks for the reply's.

It could be that I have a custom recovery (I've followed a manual, and there was a step to choose for Nexus bootloader or Cyonogenmod bootloader. I've choosed Nexus.
Is there a way to get the official custom recovery back?
I don't have a custom rom.

is there a way to flash it without putting my phone back to stock and relocking bootloader?
U have to flash the matching Stock Recovery (dont know where to find here atm) for your Device, then the OTA should work (i think you´re on stock ROM since u got the OTA?)

If you are trying to flash the ota zip then it won't work unless you have the stock recovery on your phone, any custom recoveries will prevent ota updates been applied.

So, i just need Hasoon's tool to flash the stock recovery is good to go?
Thank you
Yes, hasoons ToolKit should work, u have to download the correct Stock Recovery and copy it to the correct folder for the ToolKit, than let the ToolKit flash it.
Easier way would be to download it, copy it to your ADB-Folder (e.g. C:\Android\) and flash it via cmd as described in the tutorials out here.

Thank you
I have a similar question: I have a Rogers HTC One, but I'm currently running the Telus ROM. I cannot install the update. Can I install Telus stock recovery and update, or do I have to go back to Rogers stock ROM and Stock recovery? If that's the case, where can I find them. They seem to be unavailable.
Thank you
Ive downloaded the 4.2.2 official update on my HTC one,When I click install now it goes into TWRP and doesnt allow me to update.
Do I need to flash the custom recovery to update?
and if so will I need to flash TWRP later after upgrading or is there another way?
Can I locate the update file on TWRP and install it ?

Search for the stock recovery, download it, flash it with the phone in fsstboot mode.
fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilename
This should be documented in the returning to stock sticky thread. Or one of the other many similar questions here.

after you are done with the OTA, .... Unlock the bootloader again, and then whichever recovery you like you can go for it..

Hi,
I'm running sense 5.5 android 4.3 version 3.63.707.3, firm, rooted, CWMR, s-on.
I'm able to download the 4.20.707.6 OTA update, but can't install it. Flashing the stock recovery will fix it?
Thx.

yes lol as we said in the other thread you posted in. I posted you the stock recovery for your version there. your recovery here
save it to your adb/fastboot folder
boot your phone in bootloader mode and select fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <name_of_file>.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
You will probably loose root ,you will need to root your phone again after ota's

Worked just fine, man. Thx again! :good:
I have another question, though. Which custom recovery do you recommend? I had CWMR, but reading the forum I noticed a lot of people using TWRP.

I recommend latest twrp recovery (either 2.6.6.3 or 2.6.6.4) which is required to flash 4.4 roms
I rooted my Nexus 6 a while ago, bootloader is also unlocked (obviously) and I flashed a custom recovery, the rest remained stock. Now I got the update for 5.1.1 ota but it wouldn't let me install it, not even with the stock recovery (which I flashed later again) because it said something like it expected something different in some system-file. So I backed everything up and tried flashing the whole firmware from the google servers using the flash-all.bat. It flases the bootloader and also the radio, but then it says:
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
archive does not contain 'boot.sig'
archive does not contain 'recovery.sig'
failed to allocate 1778975696 bytes
error: update package missing system.img
Press any key to exit...

I understand that I can flash everything manually and it also works, but what if I get another ota update someday? I won't be able to install it ota, will I? I'll need to flash it manually again then, right? Is there any other way to kinda 'force-flash' the stock firmware?
Thanks in advance for yout help!

Flash-all doesn't work. All you need to do is flash the system image and boot image if you've unencrypted or switched kernels. You won't lose your data this way.

So if i flash every single image via fastboot it would be stock and I would be able to install ota's again?

Yes, but why? Just flash the system and boot images of the latest version also if an updated bootloader and radio, flash those too. No need for OTA's on a Nexus.

You're right... So personal stuff and app data will only be deleted, if I wipe it or if I flas userdata.img, right?

Go easy....
Wanting to flash some of the newer M ROMs.
Requirements are latest radio, boot loader and TWRP
How do I change those?
I'm root and twrp installed. Are there zips to flash in recovery 1st?
Steps or even a video would be HUGE, and thank you for helping.
The information is everywhere. You have to flash the radio/bootloader in fastboot mode. You can't flash them in recovery.

I was in a similar situation, I have MultiRom, and I wanted to preview M out without getting rid of PureNexus. So this is what I did
Download factory image for M
Make sure you have the latest android SDK!!!
extract the factory image
rename bootloader file to bootloader.img; rename radio file to radio.img
connect your device and reboot into bootloader
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio radio.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then reboot your phone, and you are good
if you are uncertain about it, take a look at flash-base.sh, or flash-all.bat, and follow those steps.
most bootloaders and radios ARE available via a flashable zips that can be flashed via twrp, you just have to look for them. otherwise, fastboot is very easy.
I found the zips and flashed them with flashify. How do I know if it took? What is the radio listed under settings?
Settings-about phone-?

If you flashed the marshmallow radio, the baseband should end in .27r.

i dont think you can flash the bootloader via flashify.
Does flashing marshmallow factory image not update the boot loader and radio with it ? Ie flashing marshmallow from NRT toolkit ?

if youre rooted, and dont want to go through the process again, and dont want to lose your data, all you have to do is flash the boot.img and the system.img to update the rom. and then reflash supersu in twrp
