[Q] [OTA]Can't update via CWM Recovery?

I got OTA notification today and it can't be installed automatically. The CWM Recovery does not mount /system at start hence error 1. Then I tried to install the OTA zip file manually using CWM but got error 2 as attached. Anyone can help?

CWM RECOVERY does not support the official OTA update !
Please use the Stock recovery and Stock ROM!

Yes....I uninstalled SuperSU, flashed stock recovery and re-locked and found SuperSU came back:crying: Don't know why....I tried OTA and it stopped with a big red excalmatory mark! I tried fastboot oem rebootRUU & to flash the zip manually and was told 12 signatures failed.

Thank you very much!! :good:
I'm not good in Chinese (null, really ) So, whether I understood right that 1,22 clockworkmod.rar is an official ROM?
I have one more question to you considering bootloader unlock. Your wrote in here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2697994 "1.Unlock bootloader at http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/(Model selection: HTC one)". Can you tell me, please, will it give UNLOCKED status with S-ON or S-OFF? Cause I made this unlocking procedure through Kingo HTC Bootloader Unlock... and it gave me UNLOCKED with S-ON... Then, with ROOT, it added TEMPERED to HBOOT screen... I'm not sure, what does it mean. Before I had Huawei... it was much simpler to customize it... as long as I'm pretty new to Android.
kinghunki, I used your ROM from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2712315 I'm sorry that I ask in this theme... but I have no right to write in the development section. And I have a question to you concerning this ROM. Why I cannot change installation options? Well, I can change them in the installer. However, when installed, ROM doesn't reflect my choice... but install only those apps that were predefined instead... I tried to re-install 3 times... but have no result.... Only predefined options were installed each time.
Thank you very much for your time and understanding!

Problem with CWM and Flashing Custom Roms

Hey guys i need some help. I took out my old Galaxy Grand Duos and thought about rooting it to get Android Kitkat ( I have an International version which has never been rooted before ). I rooted it successfully however I am facing problem with the CWM recovery. When i first installed it I was getting the 'No Command" error. I read on XDA that I need to perform a battery pull in order to get the CWM working. I did that and it worked but it only works when I use odin to flash it. Otherwise when ever I enter recovery I get the 'No Command' error. What should I do?
Secondly im trying to install this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2563557 . When i get the CWM working (by flashing it with Odin) there seems to be an error which prevents me from flashing this rom. The message I get is *Cant install this package on top of incapable data. Please try another package or run a factory reset. Error in (the file location and name) (Status 7) Installation aborted*
Thanks in advance

Unrooting HTC Desire 820
Hey guys need urgent help!!! I have got an htc desire 820 and want to root it using TWRP. I did a lot of research and have a rough idea about nandroids and custom recoveries. Also i dont want any custom ROM. Just root access.Have a few questions.
1. I need to backup my stock ROM before rooting. Just in case something goes wrong. Is downloading the stock ROM from HTC website enough or do i need to do it from my phone using TWRP and transfer the file to my PC? Because after rooting(still on the same ROM...I'm assuming rooting with the superUser.zip file only gives me root access right?)the backup created through TWRP is still modified right? I mean if i flash that, my phone is still rooted right?
2. Before rooting my phone, i download the stock rom backup and save it on my PC. should i do any other safety measures?
3. If i want to get OTA update, copy that stock rom in twrp/backups and flash that and then flash stock recovery also. Then install OTA update i want to and again root by installing TWRP and flashing the same superuser file. Am i doing it right? or is there some other way of receving OTA updates for a rooted desire 820? Are there any other steps i need to do to get OTA updates?
I haven't yet rooted. So if you guys have any solution that changes the entire method of rooting like rooting without using TWRP is there, then that solution is also welcome. I hope i've made myself clear. Thanks in advance,

Where you will get stock ROM. I do not find single site for downloading HTC firmwares.
I agree with you that before doing any adventure, you should have stock rom available.
How to flash Stock Rom if you have rooted device? (from my experience of Galaxy Note 7000, I had to use Odin for flashing stock rom).

Good question. Never looked into that because everywhere it said downlaod stock firmware. I owned a samsung earlier. They provided stock ROMs in their website. Didn't find one for my device but it's there on the website for devices like htc desire 610. Just google it. Anyways i found a workaround for the OTA update. turns out you dont even need to have stock ROM!!! YAYYY!! u just need stock recovery and it will install OTA update. after updating, just install custom recovery again.
To answer your question, using a custom recovery like TWRP u can easily flash stock rom. (if you have the stock rom). Just put it under TWRp/backup. Go into recovery mode and select backup and click the file to flash!

One advice. Don't use this tool. I have read somewhere that it breaks the phone completely. Try sending it to a repair shop. When they are done with it, you can unlock the bootloader and then install a custom recovery.
I went through the same thing some weeks ago. Now I have made sure to be on top of my phone

My Phone works but i want to Install custom rom when i trying it , and i unlock bootloader my phone is dead
repair shop cant do anything

I don't believe there is any custom rom for e9 (a53ml). You shouldn't have tried the e9+ (a55ml) roms on it.
So, you already have an unlocked bootloader and a custom recovery (twrp)?

Yes. It is for e9+. There isn't one for e9.
But, follow those steps. They might work. Just don't rename the zip/rar file to the name mentioned there.
