[UPDATE][WW] CWM Rooted Update to STOCK 8.6.5.7 from STOCK 8.4.4.11 WW only

Here's a stock rooted clockworkmod update for 8.4.4.11 WW users who want to upgrade to HC3.2 8.6.5.7
8.6.5.7_FOTA_WW_root_rec
MD5: 74522fb41d4a61c518814532a4d04332
I've included CWM recovery packaged with the new recovery kernel so there should be no issues getting into CWM after updating like there was with my US update.
This is not for users of custom roms. STOCK only.
Also, any changes you have made to the system folder will likely cause this to fail so you may need to edit the updater-script file to suit your needs.

Can this do pure root only for 3.2ww??

There are two pre-reqs:
1. You have to be running 8.4.4.11 WW
2. You need to have CWM recovery
Meet these criteria and this is for you.

Can't get it, login and password needed.
Also anyone know how to kill the Asus updates? My rooted 3.1 stock is asking me to update!!!

Oops, Link fixed.
After installing this just attempt the update, it will boot you into recovery and fail, then the popup is gone.

Thanks, updated fine, and the attempted update cleared the update. (Had to long-press Off to turn the tablet off after the failed update).
Is there a way to remove/disable the Asus update checker in stock rooted roms, so I don't have to do that again?

Sure, just use a file manager to rename Dmclient.apk in /system/app

Noob question...

I'm guessing it won't work. You will have to flash a full rooted stock ROM via clockworkmod, then the incremental update(s) all the way to 8.4.4.11 (WW), then this...
Each of these seem to be a patch over the previous, and all the files are CRC checked, if any of them fail to match, the update won't proceed.

Since the update, i'am unable to play a HD videos .... :-(

Allthe time i hear bad remarks and comments for 3.2
what do you guys believe?
to upgrade or not?
im on prime 1.6 still but no problem with anything.

I am at pure rooted Stock WW 8.4.4.5 ROM. How can I get the Stock 8.6.5.7 the easiest way?
Thanks a lot

Let me know how this goes if you try it out. I'm on Prime 1.6 as well

how can i get back to stock from Prime 1.7 Beta??

Sweet thing!
Just to confirm before I blow up my tablet, I'm running:
HMJ37.WW_epad-8.4.4.11-20110711 (rooted with CWM, of course)
This works, right?
Also, no mods, but I did copy the tun.ko driver to the /system/lib/modules directory. From what I've read, this won't stop the update, will it?
Thanks

anyone?

Yep, will work no problem.

Could somebody make a thread & upload 3.2 ww stock, no root? OTA failed and refuses to appear again... would be much appreaciated.
The ASUS update zip format would be perfect.

@[email protected], did you found an easy solution? I tried to flash the WW 3.2, but the patch checks are failing. But I also realsized, that I'm on DE_8.4.4.11 and not on WW.
@Roach2010, any chance that you build a CWM flashable 3.2 update coming from DE_8.4.4.11 ?
Cheers,
Matthias

So I can't flash this if I am on 8.4.4.5?

[Q] Best course of action to upgrade from 8.4.4.5 to rooted 3.2

I am currently on rooted 8.4.4.5 rooted with CWM and netflix fix. I want to upgrade to rooted HC 3.2 with CWM and netflix. What is the best course of action?
Do i need to flash to 8.4.4.11 via CWM first?
Then after that there is the brk method or the roach method. Which would cause me less hassle ?
Also can i use the brk method without doing the 8.4.4.11 flash?

I'm not going to do the 8.4.4.11 rooted stock ROM search for you, since that thread is seemingly buried, but I was in the same boat as you (rooted stock 8.4.4.5).
I went ahead and flashed the rooted stock 8.4.4.11 over 8.4.4.5 (going straight to 8.6.5.7 will NOT work - I tried it), then booted. Rebooted back into recovery, then flashed this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1198066
After that, I flashed this custom ROM over stock (optional, of course): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1154939
All of that I did with simple cache wipe and dalvik wipe. No data wiping and I retained my apps all through it. Oh, and all of it with CWM, of course.

I did find the 8.4.4.11 thread with the patch .zip not the full rom though which should be just fine. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1178607
I also remembered that i have the OC Kernel v16 from Clemsyn-Blades: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1202884
Will this kernel be a problem when i upgrade to 3.2 or will it just be wiped with flash to HC 3.2?
I also have the US version and have read that the upgrade to 8.6.5.7 killed their CWM. Im curious if that has been fixed, because i only saw that it was fixed in the WW version. I could probably just use brk's script to install cwm again, if someone can verify that that works...? I forget how i even got cwm on there originally...

I did all the flashing using CWM and it didn't affect CWM at all. Also, don't be surprised if you find your bluetooth isn't working after all this. See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192805
^ The exact same issue happened with my TF. That's when I flashed the custom ROM I linked to over stock rooted 3.2, and got BT working again. That ROM already has the Clemsyn kernel included, so I didn't worry about installing the kernel separately.

TF101 B70 - Problem

I'm some noob with Asus Transformer
I was using Revolver ROm, but I want to go back to stock rom, so with CWM I've used my nandroid backup of 8.5.9.19 rom, with root and cwm, which worked perfect, then with OTA Root I've tried to remove temporarily and that's ok, but when I've tried to updade via no way to do it, since que cwm it's not the stock one.
I've downloaded the 2 files from the 1st post and execute as indicated, it worked, now with .13, but I have to major issues:
1 - WIFI - not recognizing my router, find's all the ones around but not my own, never had issues with this, I have my Galaxy working perfect, I remember with Galaxy that there some change to be made in order to make it work when that happens
2 - Stock Recovery - if I want to do a wipe data, it works ok, but when I try to use it for Recovery,starts and hangs right after with the triangle displayed
I have a B70 device, so reading around looks that nvflash as some problems
My ideia is to have a net connection to download a newer version and correct the mess I've done
Thanks for your help
I have Razor Root and RecoveryInstaler in my microcard, but if I want to aply them returns an error
Sorry for the double post
edit. Problem with WIFI related to channel in my router, changed to 11 and works, update made and chennel 13 can be used again

Stock recovery is just that, it doesn't have options like a custom recovery (CWM).
Basically when you boot into stock recovery it scan for an update package, if not there it goes no further.
You indicate you have .13 firmware. Razorclaw need .19 firmware to work.

[HOW-TO] Return to stock rooted ICS US 9.2.1.21 from custom rom (One Stop Shop)

I decided to return to stock today so i could check out the newest ota which was not implemented in my fav rom yet. I soon realized its a pain in the ass to get there. Flash rom, update, update, etc, etc. And even worse is tracking down all the threads required for it.
Though I've narrowed it down to three or four, I thought i'd make a thread to put it all in one spot.
First off thanks to the members/devs that make these updates and roms for us. I dev on the HTC eVO 4g and know how time consuming and tedious it can be.
I am renaming and reuploading all the files required to ensure links stay current and are easy to follow. I will however be linking to all original threads where i got the files as well as giving props to the members who provided them.
I have a US version TF101 and will only be testing on that device. I dont know what works on tf101G, WW, TW models etc
I will update this thread as new rooted ota's come out.

FAQ
-Will this root my transformer = no
-Will I lose root if i flash this = NO
-Can i flash this on top of a custom rom = NO
-Will this replace the custom recovery with the stock recovery? = NO, this will not touch your current recovery
-OMG, I lost root after this = NO you didnt or you did something wrong.

Can you explain why step 2 and 3 are needed?
You couldn't go from 1 to 4 if you want 9.2.1.21?

its my understanding that you have to have the last prior ota installed to be able to install the next. The last update may not include everything from the others.

Will this replace the custom recovery with the stock recovery?

I wanted to return to stock Rom too, but I have seen your topic too late....
I first saved my root with rootsavekeeper
I have wiped cache and dalvik, and then install the rom
Now, I have a bootloop with the Asus logo, and if I try boot in recovery, I have the red robot
If u have a solution, I take it
Sorry for my english

What ROM did you flash? If you flashed the official ROM from Asus you unrooted the TF.
Looks like you have stock recovery now.

Once you get back to stock honeycomb, you'll have to root it again.

@baseballfanz : Guy, you have saved my tablet .. I had almost throwed it in the garbage
@ldc2335 : I have bought it in France, and no idea about the version, sorry .. (I don't have the dock)
Well, now, I willl see if it is stable or not :
- if it is, I need to find the way to root it (but I have read it's not possible with the last Rom, right ?)
- if not ... I will try to return to Honeycomb and sell this piece of sh*t, and I will buy the Galaxy S3 or will wait for the Note 2
Thx again !!!!

I use NVflash way and from modded(rooted/CWM/Overclock) 9.2.1.17 directly flash back to stock clean 9.2.1.17 and it's very quick... and root it agan via Vipermod and flash 9.2.1.21 update zip.. Takes about lest than 30mins..

Thats one way to do it. I just dont wanna re-root etc.
Flash, reboot, flash, reboot, flash, reboot..done Definitly 30 mins or less.

If you can return to honeycomb, then just reroot and then flash any rom you want. Whats the issue?

Simple, clear, straightforward directions - very nice. The file naming is clever also, no "now which file do I flash next?..."

Same here, its an assert issue, I remember dealing with it when flashing my epic touch and I believe that had to do with the version of CWM that it was being flashed from

[Q] How to update GTP3113??

I am on stock(P3113 rooted+cwm)...I am getting an OTA for 4.0.4 but for that i'll need to go back to stock recovery...Should i :
1) Flash stock rom n then take the OTA
2) Flash 4.0.4 through odin [ http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-P3113 ]
3) Flash stock recovery n then take the ODA.
I would like to go with option 3 cuz it will require the min. amount of downloading....But for that i need stock recovery...So what should i do n is there any other way??

On my 5113 the only thing that worked for me was to flash with Kies and then reroot. It was well worth it though.
There doesn't seem to be an easy way to get just the recovery and I think (not sure) that only Odin can unlock that partition anyway. There are some stock images in Odin format and I have been meaning to pick through them to see if I can find the stock recovery image, but since no one has posted such, I am guessing you can't.

But the problem is that i can't update vie kies...It keeps on disconnecting, so OTA is my only option n for that i need to get rid of CWM.

I am curious too, I rooted using this method, and have CWM installed.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25480291&postcount=137
I guess I can just flash the stock image and loose root, upgrade, then reroot. Hopefully, someone will drop a stock, rooted and deodexed 4..0.4 rom for the P3113.
Also, I have not used Kies before, so I guess I don't even know how to flash the stock image for this tablet. Can anyone help with that?

To flash stock you'll have to use the stock rom n flash using odin,,, But i was hoping that there is way around it...

I've updated today my rooted P3113 to 4.0.4
This is the only way to upgrade rooted P3113 (with CWM), because the samsung official upgrade scenario doesnt works on CWM
1. Backup with Titanium
2. Wipe/factory reset with CWM
3. Download and unzip stock 4.0.4 firmware from here, then flash it with odin (PDA button)
4. Configure your device (now it's clean stock apps and stock recovery)
5. Restore your apps with Titanium
6. Install CWM and root - If you wish so (just as you installed on 4.0.3)

I would imagine this is just like the 5113. If you use Keis instead of the OTA update it works. Apparently Keis uses the USB instead of the recovery. However, a lot of people are having trouble getting Keis to stay connected. But I used it with no problems. Just reflashed CWM and rerooted as you say, but did not have to reflash to stock.

Just updated manually from 4.0.3 + Rooted + CWM 5.5.0.4 (GT3113)
Sorry too young to post links
Went very simple (10 minutes)
Returned to Stock Recovery: h://theunlockr.com/2012/06/02/get-samsung-galaxy-tab-2-7-gtp3113-back-stock
REBOOTED
Applied Update (not 4.0.4, not sure what it was)
Downloaded 4.0.4 from Samsung directly: h://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-P3113
Unzipped to Desktop
Updated to 4.0.4 using ODIN (PDA)
REBOOTED
System applied update on startup
Asked me to select language, date, Goodle backup, etc
It loaded all existing Apps, Wi-Fi, etc automatically no TiRestore needed
Up and running, seems faster- smoother, new keyboard (old keyboard was good, this one is as good better for big fingers?)

Back to CWM & Root
h://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1722304

I downloaded the file from the Samsung site, launched Odin and updated. It kept all my apps and settings since I did not wipe. Flashed recovery, then rerooted, did not take long. If it gets yucky, I will do a factory reset.

Very helpful!
Very helpful guide.
On a semi-related note, I really like 4.0.4 it's certainly an improvement over the last and seems to have cured the stupid interface lag.

Ok flashed mine using mobile odin...no need to wipe data..

Your steps are so easy. I wish I could follow you on this, but I can't figure out how to revert back to stock recovery only. The theunlockr.com link shows how to completely revert the entire firmware. How do you revert recovery ONLY?

Hasn't someone made a .zip file that can be flashed with CWM? Why is it different than flashing a 3rd party rom?
