Hey guys, just wondering I got the system update message to 4.4.3 . But since I'm stock rooted with a custom kernel. Is it possible to flash the OTA over? This would wipe the existing custom kernel and root right? Thanks in advance guys.

i guess you can but if you have a custom recovery also installed it might not work.

Yes I do have twrp in it. So better not to flash? If I flash would it brick the device?

better not to flash as it may get aborted when it finds no custom recovery present... i am not 100% sure though..

how can i get stock recovery ?
If you have the ota file you can install it from the custom recovery over the stock rom. I didn't get the ota either (E11)
But here is the stock recovery you need.

You have to have the stock recovery installed to accept an OTA update

Thank you for your answer. Now another question: how can i go back to stock recovery? Thank you!
C
They are specific to your software build. What are you on at the moment?
You can download the ota without stock recovery. Then just extract the recovery from the firmware.zip which is in the ota zip file. It saves to downloads folder when you download it.
Then flash it. Then apply the ota.

Did you flash a 4.4.3 ROM without upgrading firmware? That's your problem. If you are s-off upgrade your firmware, if not you either live with the slow boots or go back to stock and wait the OTA from HTC
Another possibility is that ART is activated. Takes hohes to boot since I switched from Davlik.

Just flash a TWRP or CWM backup, don't know which recovery you've got and optionally stock recovery to get back to stock.

Extract the zip ot downloads and boot into recovery and select update.zip I don't remember the exact name. Unless you removed stuff it should work

Just flash stock recovery first and as long you dont modified anything, just rooted, the ota will go through. I heard you might loose the root after ota.

You already in stock 4.4.2 just rooted and twrp. All you need is stock recovery and checknthe updates and receive the ota. Check the xda thread if its true that once you accepted the 4.4.3 ota, you will loose root.

i can root in 4.4.3 ???
I was on the original 1.12 firmware, but here was my process.
I relocked my bootloader, used the 1.57 RUU to return to stock. Updated to 4.4.3 with the OTA, went back through the HTC Dev unlock process to unlock my bootloader, then flashed TWRP.
From there you can install a custom rom or use TWRP to inject root to the stock rom.

HTC Desire 816w OTA
I have the ota file for the 816w A5_DUG. All you have to do is unroot, flash a stock recovery, and flash it in stock recovery. Thats what i did. I made sure to make a backup before all that if screwed up, not to mention a titanium backup.

Thank you, can you tells us what rom version this is to avoid a mismatch with our phones.. perhaps you can make a backup (CWM or TWRP) and post download link.
It is the Europe ota. I won't be able to post a twrp back up until tonight because it's my girlfriend's phone

So, D816W users receive OTA yet? Did anyone tried this method?

have you tried it ??
Why not a twrp backup? Its faster and easier to use. I'll try to get both. I'm not a fan of switching recoveries all that much. I'll do it though

Here is the CWM backup, twrp is on the way.

Was your device previously rooted, unlocked boot loader. Did you unroot now and received official OTA update?

Excactly. I had to unroot. The most important thing I found is flashing correct recovery. This one I found on this forum from version 1.60 was causing problems on my device, so I had to extract recovery from OTA. After flashing it everything was ok, except error with file /system/xbin/nc but workaround for this was already described.
I'm updated, my version is 816 W (unicon).
