Guys,
I need a quick help.
I formated my HOX. It was stock, rooted, philz recovery, etc.
No I want to install my stock ota file that I saved to my disk but I have no idea how to do it.
Is there any way to instal my ota file update?
There is no option to install nandroid as I'm blocked by network administrator and can not download anything.
Is there any way to instal my ota file update? if you have any idea please let me know.
Thanks,
Ota files only applies to a stock rom, so you need to be on stock rom before you can successfully install an ota

Any idea how to install stock ROM? Except NANDROID?
2 options
Ruu or nandroid....but both need to be downloaded

Does RUU workw while I was on 4.22. Can HBOOT be dwongraded?
Nope can't be downgraded, only if your phone came with S-OFF.
And 4.2.2 ruu's are rare/non existing here.

So the only option is when I go home download NANDROID and proceed on.
Another question? DO I need to keep this ota file (Stock ROM) 4.2? IS there any way that I can use it or it is useless?
Because before I deleted my HOX, I flashed stock recovery, relocked boot loader and booted my phone to recovery in order to flash the file by did not work.
Why wipe the stock rom and apply an ota ?
What you can do is this :
Unlock
Flash custom recovery
Restore stock rom
Flash stock recovery
Update the phone via the menu
No need to install the ota that way.

The point is that Stock ROM wont be installed through philz recovery.
I tried to install it with philz recovery and it says;
file_getprop: Failed to stat "/system/build.prop. No such file or directory.
"Error in sd card.. Status 7. Installation aborted.
You mean restoring the nand ?

I'm talking about the OTA stock file (official rom 4.2 ) that I received during update.
The ota file is of no use without running the stock rom. You need to follow my earlier instructions then you can update easily

Mr. Hofs,
I downloaded nandroid back up but I'm having problem with md5 \. Do you have any idea how to get rid of this problem with md5.
Uhm yeah there might be a solution. Check the general section for the backup collection thread. A possible fix is posted there.

i thought you had a nand backup, however that RUU isn't available yet so your only solution is to restore a nand backup as stated above

Getting a red triangle when updating
Stock recovery
Stock Nandroid
stock boot.img
Am thinking this Rom might not be completely stock.
edit
it has superSU
So the update is failing because its a stock Rooted rom.. Why would the guy upload a nandroid and call it stock when its not.
Root is not the issue. It updates fine with root acces.
Did you flash the stock recovery after restoring. The recovery from the nand is not the stock one

Good idea where would the file be located? I looked on the SD card and find no download.
Hmm download it again via the update menu and choose to install later. Then it should be on the sdcard.

Whats the method for updating the Hboot without OTA?? never done it before.
Put the phone in the fastboot usb mode. Take the firmware.zip from the ota and put it in the fastboot folder on the pc.
Open the command window and relock the bootloader
Fastboot oem lock
Fastboot oem RebootRUU
Fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
Unlock the bootloader and install a clean new rom via a new custom recovery.
I recommend philz 5.15

OK first thing I was asking you to see if you did a Nandroid Back of your Bell Stock Rom that you might need one day....but that won't work now cause your not stock completely........
Secondly if using firewater and gives you WHELP....... IT'S not going to S-Off.....so your SOL.....so now if you wanted to sell your phone and try another to get S-OFF...this is where your Nandroid Backup would of come in handy....<<<<
