Hi, I'm sort of new to this so I'm just wondering if I need to flash CM10.1 when I install it?
I'm currently running CM10 and installing the OTA nightly versions and those don't need to be flashed, or so I was told. They work fine.
So I decided to check for updates and there was 10.1 available, so I'm just wondering that if I got the OTA update and installed it, would I need to to anything else?
Thanks for the help
Yes, you need to have hboot version higher or equal to 1.28.
You also need to flash the boot.img and do a full wipe before flashing.
Flash new 4.2.2 gapps as well.

Hello, I recently flashed TWRP onto my V with the toolkit in the sticky thread, however I can no longer install system updates, it just boots into TWRP. Can anybody advise me on what to do next?
Kind Regards.

system updated only work woth stock recovery. i think you can flash the stock recovery, take the update, then go back with twrp
Thanks for your help, but I decided to flash over a custom ROM anyway, which is already updated to 4.0.4 and sense 4.1
You realize there are much better versions of Android beyond 4.0.4 available for the one V don't you? Cm 10.1 is currently at 4.2.2 and the latest fully working PACman rom (v19.3) is at 4.1.2, just to name a couple.

I am excited to test out santod040's unsense one 4.4 rom when it is released and I wanted to upgrade my firmware in preparation. Will any of the update (kernel or radio) affect my current rom negatively?
I assume the stock recovery is not needed for a firmware upgrade?
currently using NuSenseONE 7.3 but I try out new ones all the time.

You dont need to upgrade your firmware. When the rom comes out just flash it. Also, there is no official 4.4 update for the one. Hope this helps.

Actually if you're on .10 or older you will need to upgrade your radios at the least, but it's best to do it all. You won't have voice or audio in calls without .15 or newer. You don't need stock recovery. You can just flash the latest firmware followed by the new Rom and be good to go. You won't need the boot.img from the firmware .zip so you can just remove it from the .zip file (without actually unzipping the file) if you want.

How do I find out if I have the latest firmware and radio?
I was on CM10 and noticed that OTA CM updates no longer work. So as usual, I installed the latest TWRP, downloaded the latest CM11 nightly and proceeded to install. Every time I get an error.. something about bootloader. There is no need for me to update my bootloader because I already have the correct one. I checked.
I thought maybe the problem is TWRP and tried Clockwork. Same error. assert failed: getprop("ro.bootloader")... and then it lists differnt I747 models... then gives (Status 7) on the bottom
Why cant I update to CM11?
Thanks.
If it helps my bootloader is I747UCDLK3.
I was about to ask this same question. I am unable to flash any 4.4 rom... Am currently using task AOKP 10/31 and wanted to try kit kat.
Every 4.4 rom has failed to flash. I tried flashing the new modem in the cm thread as well... What am I missing?

Try installing with CWM and check the CM11 updater script to make sure your bootloader is supported.
You need to make sure that your exact bootloader is listed in the asserts or it will error out... If your bootloader is not listed, then you need to upgrade to a bootloader that is in the list.. one compatable with your model... recommend only upgrading as far as you need to... careful with some of the latest bootloaders as they will brick your phone if you later try to downgrade...
I believe you need to update your bootloader for a KitKat ROM. Look for I747UCDMG2.
I figured it out. I updated to the latest cwm version and everything worked fine. Running liquid smooth now.

My Nexus 7 wifi has the 4.4.3 update that has been prompting me to update. I tried doing the update which fails.
I do have TWRP installed, MultiROM, and a customer kernel. I tried flashing a custom kernel which did not resolve the issue.
I currently swap between stock and CM depending on what I would like to play with.

I'd do a nandroid before doing anything.
It might help if you state what the exact contents of the error is, my guess is that you have changed something in /system (unexpected contents error), and flashing a custom kernel won't fix it, in fact you would want to flash a stock 4.4.2 system.img and stock 4.4.2 boot.img if you want to use the OTA method, else you can just skip using the OTA and try and flash a 4.4.3 system.img and 4.4.3 boot.img, either way make sure you clear dalvik and cache before booting up after the system flashes.
You cannot install official updates if your device is modified!
Since you mentioned that you are familiar with CM, why don't you update to the latest CM ROM?

I play with it every once in awhile but I don't know why I enjoy stock but I do. Maybe I will go back to CM.
I'm trying to install the latest update to cm13 but it errors out. I'm only running stock CM with no custom kernel. I've also tried a full wipe and reinstall but get the same error message. Any help is appreciated.
Which rom are you running now? If it's lollipop based then you need to flash marshmallow to then flash cm13 over the top of it.
If you are s-on you have to use an ruu or an ota. If you are s-off there are plenty of zips around you can flash.
The principle is, you need a base rom to flash the "incomplete" cm13.

You need to update your firmware to the latest version and then you will be able to flash the new ROM.
