error 7 - but with CWM recovery - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have nexus s 9023 and trying to manually install JB, I get the annoying error 7 (apply_patch_check).
I have STOCK 4.0.4 but the bootloader is unlocked, i have root and a different kernel.
I read a lot of threads about this problem but I understood that having the CWM recovery should prevent the problem,
but unfortunatly I still get it.
Does anybody knows what should I do in order to fix this and get the JB update?
Thanks!

If you have a custom recovery, you can just copy it to the device, reboot to recovery, and flash directly as you would any other zip. You're done.
If you have the stock recovery, carry on.
Do you do a full wipe or dirty flash?

You do nothing special but make sure that you nexus 7 has stock firmware and no modified system file. Flash away with TWRP as usual.

What did you expect you flashed an OTA update. Unless you use something like OTA Root Keeper you are gong to lose root. Just use one of the many ways to root your device. I use Wug Fresh for rooting and installing a custom recovery.

how about rooting this 4.2 ??
I just updated and rooted with the same CWM package I used for 4.1.2 rom.
how to root it
use which super su.zip?
You can root it with the Nexus 7 ToolKit. Tested and working for me.
Or you can root manualy, by pushing rhe CWM recovery to system in Fastboot mode and installing the SU from CWM.
Beware of the Bootloader 4.13 that also made the issue of not recognizing the custom recovery - need to downgrade bootloader to 3.34 first.
In my case the recovery remained unchanged. I didn't had to downgrade anything.

There are two ways. The easy way or the hard way or another easy way. You could put the stock firmware on your sdcard. You can also flash it in fast boot or flash it with twrp.

I tried updating from 4.1.1 to 4.2.1 but was unable to do so. Ive got the correct firmware for my model the WW one but it doesnt come up as saying there an update able to be installed. I dont have a custom recovery installed, is there another way to update without getting a custom recovery installed?

First of all, when you download the firmware from asus, you have to extract the file named: US_epad-user-10.6.1.15.3.zip. place the extracted zip file on your 'SDCARD'. your tablet will find it and notify you. if it doesnt, restart the tablet.
Forgot to extract the zip first before putting it on thanks

[Q] Help!! Cant Update OTA 4.2.2 for my One XL !!

I've been running Stock Rom (4.1.1) with Bullet_proof_kernel and TWRP (instead of stock kernel and stock recovery),Recently I was notified on an update to 4.2.2 via OTA. And when I was asked for installing the update package after downloading (424 MB),it simply goes into TWRP,and nothing happens. I tried flashing it through twrp but it doesn't work(I get some errors on it). What if,I flash Stock kernel and stock recovery and then try updating it??If that's possible,Can anyone provide me with a link for downloading them? It would also be great if you suggest an alternate way to update it to 4.2.2 [stock].
Thanks in advance!!
As I've told at least 3 other people in the last couple days: OTAs require stock recovery to install.
Also, I think your bootloader will need to be relocked if you are S-on.
If you are already bootloader unlocked and custom recovery, just install one of the stock (or stockish) Sense 5 ROMs posted in Development. Flash like any other custom ROM.

What version of TWRP?
Going back to stock recovery has been asked so many times, I'm not going to bother answering. Try reading or doing a search.

Its been discussed here countless times that TWRP 2.5.0.0 is buggy, and many ROMs will not install with it. Update to 2.6.0.0.
This is probably your main issue. Returning to stock recovery is a poor remedy.

Try downloading GooManager from the Play Market, and update TWRP that way.
I've tried CWM before, but only the official version, not Philz, so I can't comment on that.

[Q] ROM Update on CWM recovery

I have the MT7 TL10 international. The phone is rooted, BL unlocked and CWM installed. Today I received notification that an OTA update on B123 is available. I think I've read somewhere that the update will not work with CWM so I have to go back to stock recovery. I know how to do that but I just want to confirm with you experts whether or not IT is needed.
And in case I go back to stock recovery, do I just have to flash CWM again after the ROM update and it's all good again?
Thanks in advance for your feedback-much appreciated

Dear Simona,
thank's for your reply. If I get you correctly IT is needed to go back to stock recovery before flashing the OTA update.
But what about my second question. If I flash CWM after the ROM update, will the phone still be rooted, BL unlocked, CWM recovery and SU installed?
My apologies if this is a silly question, but I'm not an Android expert - just an user....

Unable to update to 12.1

So today I saw that the 12.1 update is downloaded and asking me to install it. But, when I do try installing it the screen is stuck at the Cyanogen Recovery.
The usual options in recovery screen are displayed, why isn't the OS updating?
FYI - My OPO is rooted and also has TWRP recovery installed. I also tried disabling the Update Cyanogen Recovery option but the same option.
Any assistance would be great

You can't flash the OTA with TWRP recovery. You can either flash the stock recovery and then install the OTA, or you can download the full ROM zip and flash that with TWRP.

Sorry, a little question (and sorry to the OP)
Ive try to install the ota manually (i was rooted with twrp) flashing back the cm recovery, but it doesnt work still.
So ive flash the twrp 2.8.6 (for the baseband not installing prolems) and downloaded the full rom file, flashed in twrp without any wipes... Its all ok now, should i have problems with this method?
The baseband is 241,is correct?
Thx for helping
