[Q] Error with updating unrooted 4.0.3 to 4.0.4

Hi guys,
I'm having serious trouble updating my Nexus S (GSM) from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4.
After almost a week waiting for the 4.0.4 OTA, it arrived when installing it the phone got stuck on the red rectangle and after a while i got this error:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
Installing update...
file_getprop: faild to stat: "/system/build.prop
": No suck file or directory
E:Error in /cache/hR7QFEtn.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted​
Also i'm having some "google logo stuck on restart" problem which i'm not sure is relevant.
Help would be very much appreciated.

use CWM instead of stock recovery, and flash OTA zip from this:

doesn't need to be rooted to use CWM...

if it's an official update and you're running stock, you must run a stock recovery to update

[Q] getting back to GB

Hi Here I have a BIG problem with understanding whats going on. This is forth week how i'm trying to push update for GB 2.3.1.
a little story:
I had ICS based MIUI rom installed for around 1.5 year and was extremely happy with its UI and performance and regular weekly updates - since it become more and more lagy after every update. my phone was to week for its software and I decided go back stock.
My phones current details

So what I done next i downloaded Odin and flashed stock gb 2.3.1 and now i can not update it in any way. System tryes to push OTA 4.0.1 but it ends up with following

It's normal you can't flash OTA because you have a custom recovery. You need stock recovery for that. You can download a factory image from Google, extract it and flash the recovery inside using fastboot.
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#soju
ALSO, stop using Odin. There's no need to use Odin or nearly on Nexus S. This thing is nearly unbreakable and you have more chances of breaking stuff with Odin than anything else.

thanx for quick replay
flashed factory GB 2.3.6 straight away using sdk tools
now will root it and install custom clockwork recovery to prevent from automatic OTA updating to lagy ICS

Use FOTAKill instead,

Thanx for good advice. Installed it allready.

[Q] Galaxay Note 10.1 8013 but progam says it is p4noterf (plz help?)

Trying to install a new rom (cm-12-20150113-unofficial-n8013.zip) But I get this message:
"
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
Warning: No_filecontextsThis package is for device: c0, p4notewifi, p4notewifiww, n8014, GT-N8013; this device is p4noterf.

I can assure you, my tablet is the n8013... Why am I having this error? How can I fix it? This error also occurred while trying to install the BlissPop rom as well... I don't understand WHAT I'm doing wrong?
Thanks,
Kris.

Make sure you're using the latest custom recovery. Try redownloading the ROM.

I also get a STATUS7 trying to flash CM12.1 with CWM 6.0.1.1
I have yet to try TWRP but I need a TAR.MD5 packaged image, which I'm having trouble finding.

I'd run into this problem as well, and it actually has to do with your version of TWRP (at least to my knowledge). I was actually trying to flash a custom rom, knowing fully well that my device was GT-N013, when it gave me the error. Turns out, I flashed the recovery for the Gt-N8000 model.
As far as I know, GT-N8013 and p4notewifi are the same device, but considering your error said that "this device is p4noterf," flash the latest version of TWRP for either GT-N8013 or p4notewifi (specifically). Then try reflashing the ROM.
