[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..

[Q] NoOS,tried to flashrom through adb but after clicking reboot it still says no rom

i tried to root my phone and install roms but then when i flashed the viper rom something went wrong and my phone would only go on recovery (twrp) i panicked... and cleared ALL the data, even my backup and including the os. I looked for guides and saw this one that shows how to install rom through adb, tried it and successfully installed android revolution, but when i try to reboot it says no os installed. please help

Firstly, which version of twrp are you using?
If it is the old ones, 6.* versions, please upgrade to the latest, then you can try side loading arhd or viper ROM once again. Should word. You can use HTC one toolkits available for m7, or use adb itself if you are familiar with it in a good level.

Install TWRP 2.8.5.0

sorry i really lack information, how do you correct system partition? and when you say format its the storage right?
so i would have to go to twrp then wipe and then format right? then install supersu and then android revolution?
Edit: i did whats above but when i flashed android revolution and clicked reboot it says no os nor supersu installed.. even after seeing the "you are now running android revolution" screen.

let it copy to the phone it takes a few min the command prompt will change when it's done

Of course I know, but I prefer having more functions. I think it is easy to unlock the bootloader, but there is not any 3rd party recovery available. Maybe I should wait until update to 6.0

So, use it at your own risk

BTW, if someone can provide me the hosd file, I can decrypt the RUU file and make stock ROM

The "fastboot boot recovery.img" is not supported in hboot 1.54 to 1.61 (was only supported in 1.44). So you can't boot a recovery you must flash it over your stock recovery using "fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.0-2-m7.img":
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.0-2-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Then reboot in recovery mode.

Nandroid backup of? It depends what is included in the backup.... if the data partition is included and there were a lot of things saved on the phone then yes it can be really big.... Normally id say around 1.5 gb is normal when its a stock backup without any user data.

Boot is the kernel and system is the OS. I would recommend to backup both of them. Boot isn't very big so it worth being backed up.

If you are going to use twrp's root make sure you have a recent twrp version otherwise it will flash an outdated SU version and cause a Bootloop. But yes it's a reliable method, if you prefer you can flash the latest supersu.zip file from twrp.
