[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 ?

You SHOULD have STOCK recovery in order to flash/install the OTA

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..

Okay. You can try the steps below:
1) Unlock bootloader
2) Flash custom recovery
3) Root your phone
4) Boot into recovery and restore from there
5) Reboot your phone to see if the problem is solved.
If the problem that you were facing is solved then
6) Full unroot you device
7) Reflash stock recovery
8) Relock the bootloader *
Done! And now, you will be able to install the OTA updates .
--------
*If you are not rooted and have stock recovery in your phone already, I don't think locking your bootloader is necessary to install the OTA updates.

No. But you will be able to download the OTA updates but it will not be installed on your phone.
Installing OTA updates require Stock Recovery.
You need to unlock your bootloader and then flash the stock recovery for your phone.

So how i install stock recovery bro pls tell

How did you flash custom recovery with locked bootloader???
Sent from my A1 using XDA Free mobile app

Follow the instructions below.
1) Backup all your important data
2) Download the zip file from the attachment and extract it into a folder of your choice
3) Enable USB Debugging on your phone and connect it to your PC via USB cable
4) Open the folder where you extracted the downloaded attachment
5) Run "Unlock Bootloader.bat" file. Follow the on-screen instructions. This will unlock your bootloader and will factory reset your phone. Your phone will now reboot automatically.
6) Go to Settings >> About Phone >> Tap on Build Number 10 times >> Go back to Settings >> Developer Mode >> Allow USB Debugging . A pop-up message will appear on your screen asking you to confirm USB Debugging from your PC. Tap on Allow.
7) Now, connect your phone again by enabling USB Debugging mode.
8) Run "Recovery Installer.bat" from the extracted folder. Now, your phone has stock recovery (for Micromax Canvas A1). Your phone will now reboot automatically.
9) Again, Run "Lock Bootloader.bat" file from the extracted folder. This will relock your bootloader.
---------------------
Now, your bootloader is locked and you have stock recovery in your phone. You can confirm this by booting your phone into recovery.
Now, you'll be able to install the OTA Updates.
DONE!

Moreover the official image file here: Android One Stock Recovery.img (KitKat) can be used to flash the stock recovery from fastboot mode or using flashify app in rooted phone.

nope that dosent work

Observation On Infinix Hot 2 [X510-D5110-Androidone-20151208] on Root

So today I embarked on what seemed to be a fruitless journey as I tried to root the Infinix Hot 2 on the latest build (December Security Patch of course) and I observed the following:
1. Flashing TWRP Recovery that was previously made for this device doesn't Flash. SP/Infinix Flash Tool flashes the recovery quite alright but booting to recovery with ADB afterwards gives a "No command" screen.
2. Kingroot (PC & Mobile) can't root this device as of yet :'(
3. I think the bootloader can be unlocked using the Android One Toolkit that was created for 1st Gen Android One devices. Reason being the fact it booted to fastboot and prompted me with the option to accept bootloader unlock or not.
Should you come come successful with flashing recovery or rooting this latest build, please comment your method. Thank you...

recovery partition is protected, it will get back to stock recovery if you boot the system. so you really need to boot recovery as the first thing you do after flashing.
which because of the similar bug we can't unlock our bootloader, is impossible to do with default setting. flash your lk partition with this:

why do you think you need another scatter file. you already tried flashing twrp right? use that one. then change the location of partition named "lk" to point this file. that's all.

TWRP for ZE500KL

Recovery made and relased by @gavrila (Original post)
So, right now we have this working TWRP, I haven't properly tested it yet but people report it works quite well.
Install
Download the recovery and Flashify on your phone (requires root)
Select "Recovery Image", open the recovery file (twrp.img) and then is done!
Reboot your phone and you are good to go!
Remove TWRP
Exactly same procedure, but with the stock recovery.
Download
HERE
You can also download it from the original post.
Stock recovery
Disclaimer
Since I had no role in the creation of this recovery, I'm NOT able to provide ANY support about this TWRP recovery.
On any problem, you are on your own

well, try to reflash stock recovery then

did you ever find out how this works without unlocked bootloader?

i'm not sure, but i think is because it does not involve adb, this way it does not trigger the bootloader tamper protection.
but it's only an hypotesis

How much tweaking would be required to get TWRP for the ZE551KL?

Not Work
It's not works on my bl-locked ZE500KL. And Stock Recovery is broken.
Both flashify and "fastboot flash" were no effect.
Since boot-loader is locked, I wonder why you recommend flashfy is ok.

corrupt twrp.img
i think the problem is corrupted file twrp.img, i've downloaded & install it from op & from gavrila's post (twrp.zip), there's diferrent size (11mb from op & 22mb from gavrila's post) , twrp from gavrila's post works for me.

I am trying to search the tutorial but here i want to inform you that After rooting you will be lost your smartphone warranty.

If you want to boot the HTC One X9 Smartphone, Just follow the given process below:
Unlock your HTC One X9 smartphone
After that you need to install Android ADB & Fast boot drivers carefully.
Making sure that your mobile has at least 60% battery charge
Make sure that you have backed up all your important

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

Hey guys, I rebuild the TWRP 2.8.7.0 recovery from M9+
You can try it will work or not, but I have China's stock recovery only so far...
So, use it at your own risk
twrp-2.8.7.0-e56ml_dtul.img
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24411628330025819
BTW, if someone can provide me the hosd file, I can decrypt the RUU file and make stock ROM

1. flash the stock boot image that you've backup
