[Q] OTA Upgrade to Sense 5.5 Android 4.4.2 - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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

Since I'm able to download the OTA update file, shouldn't I be able to extract the recovery from the file? Flashing it would that be safer?

You should use that one I linked above. Easy to flash.

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

Official Update: Verification failed.

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.

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

[Q] (Q)How to install the official 4.2.2 update with root

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..
