[Q] Rcovery Issues

Hey Guys,
I went an bought an Infuse for my daughter's first android and it came with 2..2 so I rooted it and installed CWM and flashed it up to 4.22 ...I'd like to flash one of the 4.3 Roms but every time I try I get the Status 7 error meessage. I'm assuming it's due to an out dated CWM but since I can't update it through Rom Manager and I can't seem to flash TWRP successfully I'm at a loss...Any ideas??
Any help would be appreciated.

when you get the error did you try to flash again the 4.3 rom, if you don't flash twice the rom and post your results.

That did the trick, installed CM10.2 with no problems.... Any custom kernels available for AOSP 4.31 for the Infuse?? Thanks for the help

Is it better to forego the T-Mobile KitKat OTA?

Hey guys I just got a T-Mobile G2 and have a few questions if you don't mind.
I've been reading through the forums and I see that root and such is still not available for the official KitKat update. So my question is, is it better to not install the KitKat update and just go ahead and root and install TWRP onto my device? Or is it wiser to just install the KitKat update and wait for root? Does the new KitKat update provide a new radio or bootloader that I will eventually need?
I'm looking to install CM11, so just wondering what the best route is. Thanks for any help provided!

If you root and install recovery, you can flash the new radio. The KitKat update does come with the new radio. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

If you flash the new radio you lose rotation on other roms. If you wanna flash cm11 do not take the update, you'll have to manually downgrade to get recovery.

[Q] 4.4.3 update Cyanogenmod 11

I woke up this morning like usual grabbing my phone before i headed out the door. When I was watching a youtube video a 4.4.3 system update notification showed up, i assumed it must be the next snapshot from cm but it wasn't the same as a am update it looks like an update that would come from google. I would like to know if i should download and flash or re flash cm or anything would be helpful. the update is 92.2 MB if anyone is wondering. thanks in advance.
You should look at this. You're on a custom Rom and recovery. You may have other things that would cause the update to fail. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47369234

You can't install an OTA from Google while on a custom ROM. It will fail.
Waiting for updates

OTA Question

Hello. I have a question regarding OTA updates.
I have a rooted Nexus 6 from T-Mobile and I just got the 5.1 OTA updates notification. I downloaded the files, rebooted and it took me to TWRP. My question is what is the default directory in which the OTA file downloads? If I can find it can I flash it likena zip?
Thanks in advance.

Your phone must be fully stock to perform the OTA update. Stock recovery and probably non rooted. You can't flash the OTA using TWRP.
Is there a what to get the update without a computer sideload adb?
