So I received a notification to download the 5.1 update this morning on my rooted Nexus 6. I proceeded to click download and then install.
However, due to that I had TeamWin recovery installed the update failed on reboot. (didn't even try to install)
Now when I click on "Check for updates" in About in System Settings menu. It says that there are no new updates??? Even though it failed to install.
Does anyone know where the update is stored on the device before installation? Maybe i need to remove it before it will try and update again? (now that i have flashed stock recovery)
Any help would be very appreciated.
You need to unroot too.
Ota can be downloaded online.

Once you remove root, try pulling your Sim and rebooting. Let the phone sit, without Sim, and see if update reappears.

I was hoping to use the factory OTA update method for a change. (Always manually update) But might just be easier.
Downloading OTA now. Thanks for the advice rootSU

Might give this a try first. Worth a shot. Cheers mate.
OTA update downloads to system/cache folder ... It may get deleted soon after you try installing and restart the phone. You need rooted phone and a file explorer like es file explorer for accessing system folder.

Check first whether you have it in your phone already. Rooted phone go to /cache folder you'll find something.Zip there.
Ok so i managed to get the phone to download the OTA again and attempted to install it again. This time with stock recovery.
Everything was looking good but it fails with "error" below the android logo.
Any ideas?
Sorry I can't help you. I don't want that AT&T 5.1 update. So I did what you did and hit install. It of course didn't. I use TWRP also. But the damn 5.1 update is back!

Any reason you want the OTA? you can install the factory image from here and get the same result without mucking around...

Using a stock image will wipe the device each time. The posters question is even more valid now since Google's doing security patches every month.
I have the same issue & I wasn't able to find the .zip in /cache

You only need to flash the system.img file within the Google image using fastboot.
After that, boot into TWRP and reflash SuperSU, XPosed, and anything else you've flashed that resides in /system.
Wipe caches and reboot. Easy, and no app or data loss.

Except, to be more complete, it might be a good idea to flash everything except data and boot - that is, in case changes are made to radio or anything else, but if changes are done to boot and are required for system or kernel and you don't put stock boot, you're kinda screwed (you'd need a different version of twrp in this case and it probably won't be out).
My point, there really is no complete way to know if flashing just system is enough to get all the security updates unless you look at what the update replaces. That's why I'm looking for the ota.zip

And thankfully Google put version numbers to the other files so takes about 15 seconds to realise you only need to flash system. If a change was made to radio you can still flash in exactly the same way as the system and not lose data...

Use Flashify to install OTA updates instead.
At last i found it
I have clock work recovery installed on my phone. It refuses to update my OTA factory software update, i searched for it and installed it manually. It was in /data/data/com.tinno.systemupdate/files/googleota/0/update.zip
I am rooted, unlocked, and S-offed and running a custom GPE+ 5.0.1 ROM. I have an unpinnable notification that says "System Update Downloaded: Android L Upgrade for User/Release-Keys". It is an OTA update obviously, but doesn't even say what version it is. I believe I cannot install it because I am running a custom ROM, is that correct? If not, is there any way to install it? Otherwise, how can I get this notification to stop appearing? The update is ~300MB downloaded and I would love to have that space back. Also I think it is keeping my device awake because I use the Xposed mod "Notification Count" and it says the darn thing has sent out a notification a whopping 463 times since my last reboot - within 3-4 hours!. That is insane.
Any help will be appreciated.
EDIT: Woke up the next morning, and now the notification count for this stupid thing is "999+". WTF. Why does it have to be so insistent? Anybody have a solution to this?
A week passed and no response. Bump. Nobody has any idea how to get rid of this thing??

Is updating your custom rom to 5.1+ an option? Already many custom roms were updated to 5.1 even 5.1.1.
Interesting. Last time I checked there wasn't a 5.1 version. But it seems the dev recently implemented an initial version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...m-google-play-edition-lollipop-v1-00-t2963841
The current version of 5.1 of this ROM has some known bugs and I would like to hold off until they are fixed - I like having ambient display. Is it worth waiting until they are fixed, or should I just update now?
Is it safe for me to flash the 5.1 ROM over the 5.0.1 without doing even a cache wipe?

Don't even know what rom it is so its hard to answer. If you prefer a stable rom they yes, you should wait a little more.

You should ask this one in your rom thread, sometime when the update is considered a major update, its recommend to do a full wipe, in some cases you are fine just updating without wiping. You could do a nandroid backup using your custom recovery (save it on your computer, not just on the phone) try to update without wiping. If its working fine, there is no problem, if not you can wipe your phone and restore your backup.
To disable the notification, I would try to go in settings --> apps --> all, search for the updater service, clear cache of that service and then disable it. Then find where the ota file is stored on your phone and delete it. Not sure if it will work, never tried myselef
Is there a way to do a nandroid backup directly to pc? Because I don't have room on my phone, and TWRP Manager only lets internal backups take place.
For some reason I can't search the apps in my ROM. The notification says it is from Google Play Services but I suspect that is simply routed requests from the actual updater service. Do you know what the name of the service is, so I can find it? I have a crazy number of apps and can't find it.
Hi Koolstr,
I know this thread is old, but wanted to let you know I am on an unlocked and rooted HTC One (m7) S-On. I am using TWRP and can backup to external storage using a Micro USB Powered Micro USB Host OTG cable, which I purchased from Amazon.
I am running:
Android version: 5.1
Rom: Google-Plus-Edition-LP_m7_v3.2_072915
Kernel: 3.4.10-NuK3rn3l-Lollipop_v8.00
I am getting a similar Android System Update: Android L upgrade for user/release-keys. I cannot get it to go away. I made a complete nandroid backup and then proceeded applying the update. It will reboot the phone into TWRP recovery and do nothing. The update goes away for a few days and then it comes back. I have tried to look for a way to disable the update, but I am at a stand still. If anyone knows that would be great.
Best,
manderson706
It's something that santod did. I believe there's a post in his topic with the fix. Or just flash the updated GPE from santod
I'm running mrmarzak's stock V8.5 ROM and I got a notification from Wireless Update to download and install the latest update to the ROM. After downloading, I click "Install Now" and I get the message:
"Warning
FOTA is not supported on this device!"
The only way to get rid of the notification is to turn off all notifications for Wireless Updater. Even then, I still get a pop-up reminder every so often to complete the update, but each click-through results in this same message. Can anyone help?

Reboot to recovery. Clear cache
Should do it. Might need to clear app data for Fota, or can remove fota.
Don't think you want the full oem ota update anyway.
It updates the preloader and that makes recovering from bad modifications harder (blocks spflash tools)
But if you want the full official ota update, you can restore the "fota reboot apk". It is renamed to ".apk_ " right now to block the install. So you can rename /system/FotaReboot/FotaReboot.apk_ to /system/FotaReboot/FotaReboot.apk

Thanks, mrmazak! And thanks for all your work on the R1 HD! I was really in the mood to tinker last night, so I flashed your LIneage port last night... That not only fixed the problem on my phone, but I'm loving the ROM so far. Only thing I've noticed is that the signal indicators for wifi and both SIM cards seem a bit lower than what i remember from the stock ROM (ie. a place that used to give me 4 bars now shows 2 or 3). But I haven't noticed a decline in performance per se. Maybe this is a software glitch and the signals are still read as strongly by the phone?
Again, many thanks for all your efforts!
I went to check for system updates today and my pixel initially started to download the latest patch and then after a couple of seconds went straight to telling me that there is no update available. Anyone else have this issue and/or successfully update to the March 2020 OTA via the process below?
Updating Phone Once Rooted:
- Check for device updates, when found:
- Tap uninstall in 'Magisk Manager'
- Tap restore images
- install OTA (do not reboot)
- Back to magisk, tap install > select install to inactive slot
- When magisk installed, press the reboot button in it. It'll force to the other slot AND you'll be updated AND rooted​
I assume I should be able to go under 'System' -> 'Advanced' and get the OTA under 'System Update'. I've already disabled 'Automatic system updates' under 'Developer Options'. Just making sure google is somehow not blocking the update on rooted devices and that the above steps are correct. Thank you in advance!
Found similar thing on reddit here.
It's very common for unlocked and rooted Pixel phones to not "find" or complete the monthly OTA updates. There must be some sort of check in the OTA process that fails on rooted phones.
You should get familiar with the "sideloading" process of manually flashing OTA images.
Here is a set of instructions that I wrote in my Pixel 3a rooting guide. The process is exactly the same for the Pixel 4 series.
Taking an OTA update should be as easy as the above instructions. However there is another option available to install an OTA update called sideloading. Sometimes the update doesn't appear on the phone in a timely manner and you may want to manually install the update. Other times the OTA update seems to fail for some reason. In the end, you may decide to sideload the OTA instead of trying get it via the update feature on the phone. Surprisingly, it's actually faster to install the update via sideloading than it will be to take the OTA normally. I'll walk through the sideloading steps.....
Optional Step 1 - Uninstall Magisk (so that it restores the stock boot.img). If you find yourself unable to boot into recovery, you will have to restore the stock boot.img. I've run into this issue on some Android 10 images, but not all.
Step 2 - Download to your computer the correct OTA image from here
Step 3 - Connect to your phone via ADB on your computer. You should see the device listed if you type the command "adb devices".
Step 4 - Boot your phone into recovery (type the command "adb reboot recovery").
Step 5 - The phone will have a green android robot with a red sign over it's open access panel. Press the power button and then the volume up button while still holding down the power button.
Step 6 - Select "Apply update from ADB" using the volume buttons to highlight the choice and the power button to select it to enter the sideload mode.
Step 7 - Using your computer, type "adb sideload ota_file.zip" where ota_file.zip is the name of the OTA file you downloaded in step 2.
Step 8 - Once the update finishes, reboot the phone to complete the update process. (See note below about initial boot times).
Step 9 - To obtain root again, please use one of the two root methods listed above
Please note, the initial boot may take quite a while. I've seen the process take upwards of 20 minutes and longer. I think part of the reason it can take so long is that it optimizes the apps during this boot process. The more apps you have, the longer the process may take. When you take a regular OTA update, the phone will change to a screen where is specifically tells you it is optimizing the apps and counts up as the apps are optimized to give you status updates. When you use the the side-load method, it all happens with just the regular boot animation running and without any status updates. Because of this, it is easy to assume something has gone wrong with the boot process while in fact the phone is working through the process normally. If it isn't boot looping (showing the initial power screen before moving back to the boot animation), everything is fine and you just be patient and let the phone complete the process.

Thanks for the reply! I'm very used to sideloading/dirty flashing the updates, was hoping to use the Magisk method . Seems like google is getting smarter with their updates. I am guessing the current inability to see the OTA is due to the updates with google pay and google wanting to ensure banks it is safe.
I just finished sideloading March's OTA and patching the boot.img and everything seems to work, just a bit more effort than leveraging Magisk.
I had something funny happen. I was rooted in the January update. I just decided to check for updates. It always shows there's an update but always fails to download it. This time it downloaded and installed it. All the way to the March update. This unrooted me. I still had Magisk and all my modules but it was disabled.
I've tried the usual methods to reroot it. I downloaded the March update. Extracted the boot image. Patched it in Magisk. Put it on my PC and flashed it. The phone restarted and displayed the Google start up screen and a waiting bar like it was optimizing apps. But when that was done it went to a black screen and never left it. I put the phone down and came back to it over an hour later and it was still black. I had to reflash the stock OTA update.
Anyone know why that happened?
I experienced same exact thing. Looks like it saw the update at first then after a few seconds reverted to No updates available. About to try uninstalling Magisk, if no bueno, then gonna just sideload.

Did you disable 'Automatic system updates' on the phone? That should still allow the download to occur just not the install. It seems like google got smarter with this update to detect rooted phones.

Yes I disabled automatic updates. It didn't do it automatically, I clicked the check for update button. Normally when I do that it says there's a download available and then I know to check online for the flash file. This time it updated without stopping.

I got it rooted. It ended up taking a factory reset. It must have been some file interfering with the process. Once I reset my phone the rooting process went without incident.
As I'm searching for a more Phone based update wy, I'm thinking about to use maybe the Implemented OTA Process, but download the OTA-File manually... But for that We must know,how the OTA process is working. Did someone know:
- Where the update stores the download fine (I found a OTA and a OTA_Packge directory in the /Data/ folder)
- is there maybe a setting or information which must be injected somewhere (maybe a txt file)
- after that the ota update could then maybe started by hand
Has someone informations on that? If maybe someone where the ota still works and stil has root could check the files and places?

I unlocked the bootloader, sideloaded the August 2020 OTA and flashed the patched boot image. Kept bootlooping, then I restored to the original, booted in, installed Magisk Manager and then flashed the patched image again. Just leaving this here in case it helps someone.
NE2215, Rooted running .c22.
I have followed all the rules, unrooting with Magisk restoring images, then either using the system updater to download the OTA, or the local update apk to install an OTA. In every instance, whether it is c26 or c30, it fails with the unhelpful message "Installation Problem"
I suspect that this was caused by my having at one point installed the unofficial TWRP recovery, which I later uninstalled and replaced with the stock recovery. I had thought returning to the stock recovery would solve the problem, but it continues to exist.
Can someone suggest the steps I should take to get the phone to take the update? This was not a problem when OnePlus was providing full installs, but I'm having no luck at all with the recent updates.
Many thanks for your help.
Maybe Oxygen Updater has full download link?

I would try to flash stock boot.img without any root etc., reflash stock recovery if possible and then download FULL ota link using oxygen updater and then via localupdate.apk try to install it.
Also you can try to use this software:
OPPO System Upgrade Tool | OPPO Global
Only 5 steps to upgrade to new system. Always optimize your OPPO device when there's the latest software update available to enhance the system stability.
www.oppo.com
It should be possible to upgrade your OP10P with it even with OxygenOS without issues.
Hopefully some of those will help you to upgrade.

Many thanks, will give both suggestions a shot. But isn't the OTA update by definition only a partial update? My problem really arose when OnePlus stopped releasing full updates. Or am I confusing something?

Not necessarily. It can be partial and full, too.
Full updates are released in case of any issues, also rooted devices need full update files.
Give it a shot and hopefully you will be successful.

When I unroot (restoring images) and then try to boot the stock boot image, (just to check before actually flashing it,) it goes into Crashdump mode. Any ideas how to fix? (Since I just booted rather than flashed, I'm out of Crashdump mode but back to square one.)

You can try complete uninstall of the magisk by clicking on that button in the app, but better have a backup of your data if anything goes wrong.
Or you can just download the full Ota zip using oxygen updater and use that local update apk if it goes through. Also use that local update apk for android 13 as there is for A12 and for A13. It might solve the issue too.

Okay, I flashed stock recovery to both slots, but still update fails. The system says that I am running c.22, and tries to update me to c.30. On the other hand, the Oxygen Updater says "You need to install c22 first, and then update to subsequent updates via incremental." It then proceeds to download c.22. (I should note that at one time c.26 was installed; Not sure how we dropped back to c.22.)
Regardless, the update fails, even using the local update for Android 13.
Any ideas? I don't like the idea of being stuck forever on c.22.

idk. safest way is probably change regions or wait for a full rom. I have c.30 ota download links in my update post, but idk if you want to chance it.
