I could sure use some help in this one. Not exactly sure what to do. My phone was running Android 4.2.2 rooted with TWRP (2.6.3.3). I saw that the OTA update for Android 4.4.2 was available so I went ahead and downloaded it. Once I tried to install it it rebooted into recovery. I tried rebooting the system, but it takes me back to recovery. It won't do anything else. I tried getting into download mode, but it won't do it either. Someone mentioned that it may be wiped, but the memory on the phone still shows all the files in there. Not sure what went wrong. If anyone has any ideas, I'm all ears. Thanks.
Just flash back to an old nandroid for now. You might have to be unrooted or use voodoo root keeper while you update. Idk tho I am just reading up on it now. Were you just rooted on a stock ROM? Or using xposed?

You shouldn't take ota if you have a custom recovery installed.

?Exactly. You're not supposed to take OTAs with custom recoveries installed. That's the problem. You can try this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451696 It worked on JB but I haven't seen anyone try it on KK yet. I'm assuming it should still work.

First page of the development section, about 15 threads down (stock rooted Gingerbread):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1348637
Flash that, then unroot. Or you can use LGPNST to flash the V7 Gingerbread .tot file. Either way will get you back to stock Gingerbread.
I just used this method and didn't have any issues at all getting back to stock, and I was then able to install the ZV8 update as well.
This may be a dumb question, but if I use the one click root/unroot to unroot my phone for this update, do I need to worry about clearing the caches and removing the rom and theme first or can I just run the unroot.bat file and be good to go?
Anyone have an answer please?

You first need to flash the stock rom, then you can click unroot.
You don't have to clear your cache and previous data but it's recommended.

Has anyone else been receiving an error when updating their profile with the new OTA update? Additionally is anyone receiving error 1233 when trying to update their PRL? If so has anyone found a solution? I found a few people complaining about the issue on various threads here and around the internet but with no solution. This seems to be causing issue with both rooted and non rooted phones.
In my case I am S-OFF rooted. Took the update with stock recovery.
I figured it might be worth while to have this in one thread.
In my case these two functions are useful as I am in a poor coverage area and am now constantly receiving the "no data connection" error. That said these issues still persist in well covered areas.
I'm getting the same thing after taking the update..... Thought it was only me.... Was reading online n people who were having this issue said it usually corrects itself

Same Problem
Ever since the new update, 3.05.651.5, I get error code 1233 when trying to update PRL and also can't update my Profile. I called HTC they said it was a Sprint error code so I called Sprint and they re-provisioned my phone. This was unsuccessful and told me to wait a day or so. There are quite a few people having the same issue and the latest word on the Sprint Forums is that HTC is aware of the problem and working on it. My HTC ONE is "stock". Not rooted.

Yes it will wipe the phone.
Running the RUU seems to fix this issue for everyone thus far. It must be some issue with residual files left behind from the older version when taking the OTA.

If by download another copy you mean the updates provided in other threads you could try it but it did not work for me. The RUU was the only solution.
Using this method you can manually update your phone and it downloads the 24A KDZ to your PC. The KDZ stacks up to 2gb. I haven't completed the install yet (using hotspot to download KDZ on laptop), but I would assume this does a complete factory reset. Will update when I have completed it.

I know you want to do this,but I'd think about it. It's possible you'll lock your device down. I'd wait til the devs get this first. And look for news from them that it's safe and you can downgrade if needed. My 2 cents.

While there is a good chance it will still work. It might not. But if it didn't root would be obtained soon most likely. The bigger worry is the boot loader. No custom recovery potentially. If last minute stuff was added etc... Might be fine. But I wouldn't take a chance on locking my device til I was sure. S4 been locked since July. Many a tear over there for taking ota.

Good to know. I went ahead and restored to 10B via TOT method (I had the intial hacked 24B without the kernel and what not). Performed the update via KDZ per Droid Life article and lost root. Re-rooted via IORoot25 and all is up and running. I'm content with Google Experience Launcher and Hotspot hack. Might try and flash TWRP via the previous 24A methods.

There's an app called autorec that takes care of the recovery on official kit Kat. I manually installed OTA and have twrp. I'm also running a stock kit Kat kernel with linaro.

Step 1: Download and install LG Unified Driver for Windoze PC
Step 2: Download the 2GB VS98024A file on your PC and move the file into LG PC Suite directory
Step 3: Put your phone in "Download mode" (see Youtube video link above)
Step 4: Download and install LG PC suite and follow its directions (see XDA link above to learn how to use LG PC Suite)
Step 5: Profit
Oh, and it helps to RTFM :silly:
The file has been approved by Verizon. Just saw it on my phone but it's not 2gb, more like 690mb.

I was wondering if someone can link me to the most updated guide for installing twrp on my LG G2. I just got my phone back from RMA (Dead lines on the screen) and it came preloaded with Kitkat. It seems most of the guides there are for jelly bean. I tried Flashify, but apparently I read that won't work for verizon G2.
