I follwed the guide to root the phone. however somethings was wrong and i not had the device completely rooted. i had superSU and other, but somethings was not very well. so i decided to come back to factory locked device, but i am not able to deleting TWRP from recovery mode. the device shows "locked" but if i try to recovery or updating the firmware it appears TWRP and i am not able to deleting it.
please i need very much to solve this issue
You can flash back the stock recovery. That will overwrite the custom twrp one.
And post this in the Q&A ! This is not development related !
Not really understanding your question
how can i flash back it?
what did you not understand marknoll?
If the bootloader is 'LOCKED' you won't be able to flash another recovery unless you lock it again or flash a recovery in RUU mode. What's your CID and current ROM version?

1. re-unlock your bootloader to show "unlocked" again. I think you know how as you did it before.
2. fastboot flash the stock recovery to replace TWRP. I think you know where to get that as I saw you post on recovery thread.
3. re-locked your bootloader if you want to do it
4. done

I am not sure what you are after here, he just needs his recovery back so he needs to flash it. This thread was created in the development section and therefore reported.....by me. Trust me .... I know how xda works. I'm not a so called noob as you can see at my profile and signature.
So i suggest you sit back and let the people help him who really want to help him instead of spamming this thread

yup, i'm that noob you guys complain about... totally open to all general flaming attacks....
decided it was time to unlock and root....
being a total dumbass, i first did this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1362957
phone stuck in reboot cycle. this was for gsm and i have lte, yup major oops.
tried gn toolkit 2.2 and now constantly get a write error on anything i try for all options.
didd i brick my phone? anything i can do to just get back to factory? thought i knew what i was doing after my droid and droid x. apparently i should stick with stock. so sorry guys. any help appreciated.
Can you boot into fastboot or recovery? If you can get into either you'll be fine.
i can get into fastboot just fine. just don't know what to do from there. i get write errors from toolkit 2.2
I have no idea about the toolkit, you can just use fastboot to flash clockwork recovery or boot a boot.img or system.img
As long as you can get into bootloader mode ... you can still follow the manual steps in the same post (post # 3) if automated Toolkit doesn't work. give that a shot.
Edit: lol, ikon8 beat me to it ...

Yea, just follow the directions in post #3 of that thread. Forget that toolkit mess and just do it all manually.
everything either says cannot write too many.... or it says failed to write or failed to load...
Have you already unlocked the bootloader? fastbook oem unlock
---------- Post added at 10:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:47 PM ----------
Try Paul's Superboot, it contains all the binaries you'll need to get it rooted. Make sure to unlock bootloader first then just follow his instructions.
No flame here brotha we all know what it feels like. From reading the posts above you can get into boot loader so you'll be ok. Just read thoroughly, maybe drink some coffee, read again and you should be good to go.

yes you have to be completely stock.. and like i said i am not sure but i think cwm shouldnt matter
Didn't get the OTA yet, kept clearing framework data and checking for system updates, but I'm on mobile data, which might have an impact on this. (German carrier) I guess I'll wait until I'm home and try it again. Worst case would be francos kernel preventing me from getting the OTA, or root, but that's not the problem with OTA RootKeeper.

you can receive the OTA, but it will not install automatically if you have a custom recovery. you can then boot into the custom recovery and flash it

I read his post literally. "Can I install an OTA when not using stock recovery and being rooted?" would have been the right question. My answer/comprehension of the message would have been totally different.
And as for passing judgement, it would still be best for people to redirect others to existing threads than feed another thread like the dozens we got like it. It's the hard truth: people don't have patience. To search, to learn.
Hey XDA community,
i have recently rooted my HTC Desire 816/Virgin mobile
Currently running stock ROM
Adroid version: 4.4.2
HTC Sense version: 6.0
Software Version: 1.13.652.1
I keep getting the software update pop up for version 1.50.652.3 which i previously had before rooting
as i try update it the update is aborted
Is there anyway that i can update it and also keep my root access?
Ive tried many different ROMs although most of them seem to be inefficient as either the calling, data, or text messaging doesn't work, i would rather stick to the stock ROM until fully functional ROMs are out there.
only thing your suppose to do is just install the root,relock bootloader and flash recovery hope will work won't get aborted.....

Open SuperSU and choose unroot, flash the stock recovery, relock the bootloader and then take the update.
Then re-root the same way you did the first time.

I was simply telling them to use Google, I don't see were anything rude was said in that post. It was only 3 words, and 2 of them were Google...
But just because this is a Q&A thread, doesn't mean they should disregard any other way of getting information themselves.
Why should someone else have to take time out if there day to get the link, and give it to this person, when as I said, they can Google it.
But with that being said, I'm sorry you saw rudeness in those 3 words, next time I'll try to be more considerate.

All other threads are for non-us variants. With everyone getting their phone this week from initial preorders, I thought it would be good to have a dedicated thread. Once it's up, we can close this and add it to the other image/recovery thread.

I have requested it in a few threads and have not gotten any results. Since some people also contacted me to check if anyone had provided it to me yet, I felt it warranted a dedicated thread until it was available. It undoubtedly will be in higher demand now that U.S. customers are having their phones arrive.
Once available, we can move to other thread that we are discussing and lock this with a link.
I apologize if this was bad etiquette. I already urgently need the files; Apparently along with some other users...please quit kicking a dead horse (aka me! ).

Boot into bootloader, use the latest Google stock factory image and use the flashall.bat with the -w removed inside the file. Let the batch file run and boot the OS using fully stock firmware. If it boots fine, go ahead and fastboot boot TWRP rc1 and flash TWRP rc1 zip and supersu zip.

Fastboot. Use the latest version from Google.
Search for "Nexus factory image download," grab the latest factory image for our device, and flash all. The aforementioned will overwrite your internal memory, and there is a way to preserve your internal data. You can read about it in the Q&A section.
Check the thread from @bajasur for guidance.
For your reference, threads like this belong in that same section, not development (a moderator will move this soon enough). There's also a noob friendly thread, where you can post most anything and folks will help.
Good luck, and please keep us posted.
