Try this:
1. Choose factory reset on the recovery.
2. Then retry update.
If that doesn't work:
1. Try to redownload the B125 ROM. It might be just that the file is corrupt.
If that still doesn't work:
1. Tell me; what ROM are you on right now? And did you just revert back from TWRP?

I still need to know what ROM you installed previously. If you were on a Huawei stock rom, this situation is kinda weird.
If you were on a custom rom, you could try the following:
Warning: You will lose your data in this process. Make sure to backup anything that is valuable to you.
Go back to twrp.
Make sure you wipe the following:
System, Data, Custom storage, Dalvik Cache, cache
Then install stock recovery.
Then install B125.

I am not OP but I had same issue. What happened in my case is weird. Originally I was on B118 International, then I went to B118CN to try and flash MIUI ROM. That didn't work and I force-flashed B118CN again. That's when I got push notification to update to B120. It was specifically saying that "P6-U06V100R001C17B118 will be updated to P6-U06V100R001C17B120.
After several failed attempts, update was no longer offered, and to my surprise my build number was showing P6-U06V100R001CNCN00B118. I am 100% sure that it was P6-U06V100R001C17B118 when I flashed it.
I have no idea what happened. I wanted to stay on chinese ROM and downloaded P6-U06V100R001C17B120, flashed and all is ok so far. Build number is showing P6-U06V100R001C17B120.

I managed to fix it by flashing the factory system image from 4.4.2. A google search pointed me to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47416542&postcount=43 so a factory reset was not needed
It seems that this is a problem known to using stickmount. Is there anything you can do. I'd really like to avoid this in the future or i might have to swap to a different tool for mounting USB.
I lost root in the process with flashing the OTA but this was quickly fixed by using cf-autoroot and removing the oem unlock line then reinstalling the apk.

If you install the latest StickMount from a clean setup and are using SuperSU (this is important), it shouldn't happen again.
define clean install? Factory image? Cant do that too much data on it.
In short what i did was
- restore factory 442 system image
- sideload ota
- boot su autoroot (but with the oem unlock line removed as it already is unlocked)
- reinstall SuperSU from playstore
Havent reinstalled stickmount or any similar app yet. With that being said, if i reinstall stickmount will i be safe from this happening again, or do i need to do factory reset?

You stated you flashed the stock 4.4.2 image to fix the OTA problem. That means a clean install. Make sure you are using SuperSU and install the latest StickMount version from Play, it shouldn't happen again.
thx for the quick replies. I'll go ahead then and reinstall stickmount then. Dno why it happened in the first place. except root i'm full stock.
I am on a stock rom, rooted with twrp. I downloaded the 4.4.3 update ota but when rebooting it went to twrp and I did not know how to proceed so I booted to system. The update did not apply and I am still on 4.4.2
Now I cannot download the update again as it says I have the latest version.
Please tell me how I can get 4.4.3
Thanks

First make sure you have the latest twrp, then boot into it, flash the ota zip from inside twrp, the ota zip is located in /cache...be sure to wipe cache and dalvik before restarting.
Many thanks for the prompt response. Unfortunately, when I try and install the update I get a message
Unexpected Content in system/app/iWnnIME.apk

I am having the exact same problem. I got a notice that an update was available but when i did the update via TWRP, it rebooted and i was still on 4.4.2. It thinks i already updated so say's I am already up to date when i check for updates again..
So i downloaded the 4.4.3 update zip file from somewhere and put in on my SDcard. Then went into TWRP to install it and it complains that /system/app.Videos.apk has unexpected contents - WTF??? Then aborts. Why is a simple update so damn problematic?
Am i out of luck? I don't want to have to wipe my tablet and start over.

Both of you modified /system, you must dirty flash your stock system.img then flash the ota. Additionally, if you are using a custom kernel, you will probably have to flash the stock boot.img as well.
And both if you, don't forget to do a nandroid first!
By dirty flash if you mean wipe Dalvik and cache, i did that and then tried reflashing the update but it failed again.

No, what I mean is you need your system.img (and boot.img if you use a custom kernel) from the stock rom, then you need to flash that over your /system and /boot respectively, then flash the OTA, then wipe cache and dalvik.
And both if you, don't forget to do a nandroid first!
Updated!
Bought my Nexus recently and it was android 4.3 [Dad bought it in US and forgot to check the version)
I got the OTA update to 4.4.2 a few days back but it didnt install though it finished downloading. After trying all methods, i decided to do it with Nexus Root Toolkit. But to my surprise, NRT had the 4.4.3 stock img already! I flashed it and my Tablet is smooth. No problems noted till now. If you want me to check whether a particular app is working in 4.4.3 properly or not, let me know. I will test it and tell you

Hmm..I don;t remember removing video.apk but i may have done some house cleaning awhile back. i know i don't have a backup of it anywhere. Since I'm not running a custom kernel, i just need to flash razor-kot49h-factory-ebb4918e.tar, wipe dalvik and cache and then the update and then the update should work ok? will i lose any of my installed apps after flashing the factory image? I'm assuming this puts it back to the original out of the box OS.
Actually, if that's the case that I will lose everything, why can't i just flash the factory image 4.4.3 (KTU84L) directly?

No, no, no, extract system.img from this zip, then fastboot flash them.
i.e.:
fastboot flash system system.img
...then flash the OTA, then wipe cache and dalvik.
This process will revert system to stock, thus allowing the update to work. It will not wipe data, but any changes you made to /system will be gone, you will have to reapply those changes.
You did not ask, but I use MultiROM, and I will flash a new version to a secondary, then use titanium on app data, then boot into the new secondary, make whatever changes I need to, once I am fine with how it works, I then migrate my data to it, then use the swap ROM function in MultiROM. The whole OTA thing is a PITA when you modify too much of the system.

I fought with the Nexus 7 {2013} 4.4.3 update for a good day and a half. Tablet rooted with xposed modules , etc. Same messages you got.
Found that this method works very easily and preserves all data. Takes a few minutes to accomplish, then just one minute to reroot. Try this, it works:
http://nexus5.wonderhowto.com/how-t...ndroid-4-4-3-without-losing-any-data-0155334/

OK, I was able to update successfully.
I copied down the factory razor 4.4.2 kot49h image from google and extracted the tar file using cygwin's tar because winzip was giving me errors reading the tar file. Once i extracted the contents, i used ext4_unpacker to extract the system folder. I then copied videos.apk to the system\app directory using a the File Manager App and provided the correct RW attributes.
I tried the upgrade again but got an error this time about system\bin\app_process. I searched the web and realized that i need to uninstall the Xposed framework. Then i tried the upgrade again. this time it worked. I wiped dalvik/cache and rebooted. However, now I've lost root and need to remember how i rooted initially.
Thanks all.

Just download the newest SuperSU and flash it from recovery. Then install busybox from playstore.
I had to uninstall xposed, re enable all apps. Recovery, install update in cache, wipe cache dalvik, reboot, reboot to recover flash su, boot, install supersu, reboot to TWRP and boot then reinstall xposed.
Yep if you're unlocked and rooted it can be done without a computer but it's way slower!

How did you uninstall xposed? If you did so the way you normally uninstall apps, you did it the wrong way. You should have uninstalled it from within xposed. I think you can still fix it by reinstalling xposed and doing it the right way.

You should either flash back to original stock from your region or root your phone again, install CWM and install artmod - I suggest the latter.

well, I used CM11 before, but I think 4.1.2 stockrom is better, and I use QSlide a lot. Then I flash using KDZ back to my original stock ROM. (that my current ROM, 4.1.2 stock rom)
then I read about official Kitkat release and I think the v20a official update will included all previous LG feature so I decided to try it.
But now I'm experiencing a lot of problem, the software update didnt works, so I download the .zip from this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2784649 but it didnt work, and I'm having a bootloop.
I dont know, should I re-lock my bootloader before trying to update / flashing the official ROM?
I had try flashing CM11, and no problem.
Try again and if you didn't before do a very clean install i.e. factory reset,clear cache and dalvik cache, format system. Stock KitKat has a different partition setup compared to stock jb,I'd say that's what's causing errors.

Hi everyone!
I have a problem with the OTA update of 5.0.1. I looked at some other threads that also talked about update problems, but those were different errors.
My Nexus 7 2013 (Wifi) is currently running 5.0, unrooted but unlocked.
The error is telling me:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
Installing update...
Verifying current sytem
Not enough free space on /system to apply patches.
E: Error in @/cache/recovery/block.map
(Status 7)
I tried sideloading the update with Nexus Root Toolkit, but that had the same error.
Does anyone know what to do? I still have 5GB of free space left, but maybe not in system, I don't know.
Thanks in advance!
I was on 5.0 rooted with TWRP and got an error trying to take the OTA. So I downloaded the rooted rom from Scrosler found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/nex.../rom-factory-stock-rooted-rom-lrx22c-t2960745 , used Wugfresh's NRT 1.9.9 to update the bootloader listed in Scrosler's post, and then dirty flashed (no wipes) the 5.0.1 rom with TWRP. Painless and fast with no loss of data or anything.
I get a 'page not found' error, but I will try your method! Thanks for helping, will let you know if it worked!
Just wipe cache and start again.. it will installs without problems..

Worked perfectly on mine running 4.4.4, too. (I wiped cache and Dalvik before and after the flash, though, just for giggles. No idea if that made any difference.)
