No you just have to grab ota rootkeeprr from the playstore from it backup your root then put temporarily unroot then flash the stock recovery if you had cmw installed then install the update then restore the root and flash the recovery(cmw)

To know if you have recovery you boot into bootloader then select recovery if phone reboots then you don't have recovery but if you dp it will enter like a program that means you have recovery so you have to flash the stock one try it out and reply

It is wise to save the OTA.zip somwhere before you proceed the updating process. The stock boot & recovery img inside the firmware.zip inside the OTA.zip will helps you later on if the updating process is stuck in between.
And importantly, make a nandroid backup for the newly updated software version in case you need to revert to stock and there is no RUU available.
Now you just have to flash stock recovery

As you said, you already have a CWM recovery, then you need a stock recovery flashed first. The next question is which stock recovery ? The one that listed on that thread is 1.56 version which is meant for hboot 1.16. So check what is you hboot now ? If it is still 1.16, then you can use that recovery. If it is 1.17, you need a 1.58 or 2.09 recovery.

thank you so much,my software number is 2.09.720.1 so which recovery file should i download?
thank you.
There is none for 2.09.720.1 available in this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1748684
So the best bet that I can suggest is save the OTA.zip as I mentioned earlier and use the recovery that comes with the OTA.
Or you can try 2.09.707.1 that I posted here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30809441&postcount=11 but not so sure whether it will work or not but it should.

Thanks In Advance
I don't think you flashed the boot.img with fastboot commands, the rommanager doesn't work because we don't have S-off phones !
Now the problem, you are unlocked and you run a custom recovery ? and on wich hboot are you on at the moment ? Put the phone in bootloader menu and check also put the phone in fastboot USB menu and do the next fastboot commands
Fastboot getvar version-main
and
Fastboot oem readcid
Post the answers to my questions and the outcome from the commands here please !

Just So I know what i'm doing before I do it
I have download matching nandriod rar format I extracted files
Contents are
.android_secure.vfat.tar
boot.img
cache.ext4.tar
data.ext4.tar
nandroid.md5
recovery.img
system.ext4.tar
with phone unlocked
do I do the following
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Wipe in recovery mode
then
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
from the downloaded files
Your help is appreciated
You have to do this :
Make a folder on the sdcard
Sdcard\clockworkmod\backup\time and date folder of the backup that's in the rar file\all those backup files
Then you copy the boot.img from it to the fastboot folder on the pc
Then you boot into the bootloader and flash that boot.img
Then you boot back into recovery and do a full wipe except sdcard. Delete all caches, data system ....
Then you tap backup & restore and restore the nandroid backup
After that you boot the phone and check it works fine
After that you flash back the STOCK recovery (its not the one from the backup because the backup is done with a custom recovery !
Here is the stock recovery you need
http://db.tt/U5CK4noo
The last thing is to flash back this recovery and you are good to and update the phone with official JB

Be more specific please, did u do a system update ? To what version 4.04 ? I dont understand your software update never seen such a number ??? And what about apps ...you mean apps in the playstore ?
And maybe your provider hasn't rolled out the update to JB yet, that's why you might not get it at the moment and have to wait for it

No rooting is no problem, you can also update with root active, just make sure you keep the rom stock (don't delete system apps) or if you flash the cwm recovery and then do a new nandroid backup from this rom you always have a 100% stock rom to go back to ! Always safe to do that , and copy the new nandroid to a computer or dropbox .... Always safe !
To update you need stock rom,recovery and boot.img ....

Yes thats the stock recovery....its normal, if you want to enter the recovery after that you have to push volume down and power button to confirm.....if i recall it right.
Its volume + and power button
But the stock recovery is pretty much useless ....it doesn't have the features that a custom recovery has

What do you mean, are you on stock rom and tried to do the official update with the custom recovery ?
If you have 100% stock rom, stock boot.img and stock recovery you can update
http://db.tt/U5CK4noo
Flash this one and try again. Keep the bootloader unlocked .... Its no problem
I tried your Recovery but it didnt worked..
I have stock rom, stock recovery (now) and i think i have stock boot.img.
if my boot.img is the prob how can i change it?
i used the Hasoon200 tool to root my phone nothing else was done
very big thanks for your help
If you are really sure you have the nandroid backup of your original stock rom the stock boot.img should be inside that nandroid backup folder !
If you made any changes to the stock rom like deleting system apps or any other bloatware then the update will also fail

You have to flash the boot.img from fastboot
simply put the boot.img in the fastboot folder and run the following commands

Hello everyone.
I just rooted my phone using hasson2000 all in one tool kit, and everything works great.
I am in the UK, with network called Three. (currently waiting for the JB update)
I am currently running android 4.0.4 with sense 4.1.
My question to you folks is will be able to receive OTA updates?
I have heard having a unlocked boot loader prevents the phone from receiving OTA updates.... is this true ?
And will re-locking the bootloader mean I will be able to download OTA update?
I know this is a lot to ask, but as this is my first time I am still what you might call me a noob.
Any help would me much appreciated.
Regards,
Shaazzaarr.
If you did NOT make any changes to the rom, like deleting bloatware and system apps. Then you are still able to fully update the phone. Bootloader can stay unlocked and root too. Don't worry about that.
What you need is
1: stock rom (root is no problem)
2: stock boot.img
3: stock recovery

Hey thanks for the reply.
I'm using the stock rom, haven't touched anything. But i am not using the stock recovery - currently using twrp.
Will i still be able to receive ota updates with a custom recovery? or do I have to do the whole ruu thing?
No you can check and receive ota's you are just not able to actually update, you need to flash back the stock recovery to update. That's all :thumbup:

Say I decide to update my phone, can I just flash the stock factory recovery?
And does flashing stock recovery mean I lose super su and root previlages?
Hey, I appreciate all the help.
Thanks.
No you only lose the SU when you officially update the phone. Flashing back the stock recovery will not change the rom or root !

So, I don't have to do anything except flash the stock recovery when a update is available. Right? And no need of rru right?

Yeah if you rename my file to

Then copy it to the fastboot folder on the pc, put the phone in fastboot usb mode and flash with commands
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

This will flash the stock over the twrp recovery ....then you are able to receive and update the phone

Fastboot files as you wish
http://db.tt/ldx3qOOU
But isn't the tool capable of flashing a provided recovery ( like the stock i gave you ) ?
I never use tools
Place the files in a folder like this
C:\fastboot\*fastboot and adb files from my link*
From there you can run the command in a dosprompt so its looks like this
C:\fastboot\fastboot erase cache
And put the phone in bootloader menu before you run the command, hold the power button and the volume down button together until it restarts to the bootloader (you should see there the text *fastboot usb*)
Then you can flash ....

ok, i think you've tried to flash a stock rom without flashing a stock recovery !!.
do you have fasboot adb on your pc ?
you need to unlock your bootloader and re flash a custom recovery
if not search the dev section for a tool that will unlock your boot and re-flash a custom recovery for you-all the instructions are on there.
once you have re unlocked and flashed a custom recovery,go into recovery and see if there are any backups of the previous rom (nand)
see if that works ..

If you wanna go back to stock and are stuck at bootloop you have to flash the boot.omg file for your stockrom .

when you say " re flash a custom recovery" what do you mean with that and would i be able to get one from the net. I tried looking for the instructions without much luck

help?:crying:
According to the hboot (1.12) you need a 2.17 based ruu .... but i can't find it !
Tthe basic steps now are
Unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery
http://db.tt/Krlm4dPs
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975140
Get your nandroid backup there,(the vodap021 2.17) you need to flash the boot.img file from that nandroid with fastboot commands, then do a full wipe in recovery and restore the nandroid.
But you still have to fix the fastboot part right ? You need to install android SDK/java SDK and the HTC drivers. Then you have to put the phone in the bootloader and open a commandprompt from inside the folder where the adb/fastboot files are located ...they are in a subfolder in the installed javaSDK install folder

Thanks, it is beginning to make some sense to me now.
So first bit I got to do is the fastboot issue, which is tha last bit you mentioned right?
And after unlock boot loader than flash the recovery with one you provided in the link, tx
So that means I will go back to stock right?
Yes unlock, flash custom recovery, flash boot.img, full wipe in recovery, restore the nandroid, flash back the stock recovery .....
And yes this way you go back to stock and i will also give you the download link for the stock recovery. This one is the last you flash after restoring everything
http://db.tt/U5CK4noo
Then you are able to update to JB from within the phones software update menu :thumbup:
Ps you do not have to relock the bootloader anymore !

Please guys, iWe spent all day trying to figure it out, after wipe phone reboots constantly and when if boot screen it's not charging so I'm prob going to run out of battery in a couple of hours
You restore through the custom recovery. Power+vol , choose recovery. If you flashed the recovery ok then you can do from in there. Ie mount usb, copy over your nand backup and restore it. You may have to flash the boot.img using fastboot.
