Old Update method to 0.7.2 & JB no longer work - RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can someone possibly package a flashable zip of the 0.7.2 update as well as the official OTA JB update, that we can install via stock recovery? I cant find the 6mb package anywhere.
Think a flashable zip would be the easiest for those of us not familiar with RSD lite
Clearly the old upgrade method isnt working anymore since Verizon must have stopped pushing the 0.7.2 ics update.

Anyone have the latest OTA for the P6210

I looking for the update.zip from the latest OTA for the P6210 (WIFI). I took the update when I got the device a few days ago but failed to remember to pull the .zip before rebooting.
I would like to get a stock deodexed ROM Flashable via clockwork.
I too would like to get this, if possible. I'm so new to all this that I didn't even now the zip could copied off.
Just use ODIN and go back to the original firmware (see thread and links in the DEV subforum.) Then get the OTA again and extract the update you need.
See the following thread for the links mentioned:

[Q] ICS update

I see that Asus has an update for the ICS that they released and I was wondering if I already downloaded and installed the rooted one for cwm can I download the update from Asus website and apply to that ROM. Also if so will I lose root. Just curious because it is supposed to fix a lot of the bugs with ICS. Thanks.
The ICS that's out now is just stock ICS with root. It is still stock so should be updatable.
Download it and try it.
What's their method for flashing? And update.zip? I'm unaware of an official flash tool.
...and yes, you will lose root with any official rom. Best bet is to wait until its pre rooted and available to flash with CWM.

I just seen that on the Asus website that they have an update in the firmware that was posted today. I've never downloaded anything from there so I don't know if it's a flashable zip or if once you download it it starts installing itself. Hopefully someone post that update with the stock ICS ROM I downloaded from here because I tried a couple other ROMs and with them all in beta still I don't want to use them yet because of the bugs and I use my tablet all day so don't like having problems with it. I was running revolver before update and loved it, so I guess I'll wait for his new one to be done.
Just looked at the download file it is us_epaduser9_2_1_11updatelauncher.zip so I don't think it will even install with the stock rooted ROM because of sku differences.

[Q] JB Update/Upgrade question

Can someone tell me what's the difference between the OTA Update to JB vs. flashing the .zip from the firmware dowload section on the Asus site? The OTA update is a patch I assume, and the .zip is a full ROM image?
Is there an advantage to using one over the other?
Thanks
I'm also curious as to how this is. I downloaded the JB update zip from asus website. Like before I unzipped it and placed in /sdcard . I was notified of an update, I clicked it and it rebooted into my custom recovery instead of flashing it like it did from .26 to .30 . Did I flash CWM (NONTOUCH JB compatible version) just a little to early?

How can I find a stock 4.4 OTA Zip

I have searched and search for a 4.4 verizon ota zip but I cant find any. Phone is bricked and had to make a new rom slot. Trying to get just a stock 4.4 zip installed or a stable 4.4.

There isn't one yet. Might be within the next week or so since the M just got a full FXZ image for 4.4 released. But, do NOT use the M's image to flash. You will perma-brick your phone for good and there is no way to recover from it.

can i update a rooted device?

my device is currently rooted and i just recieved an update from samsung. i am using a super kernel v1.4 and i would like to update to the lastest version which requires this update from samsung. can i update my device ota or must i download the firmware from sammobile and reflash everything then install everything else again. if i am able to update the phonr ota can i also just flash the new kernel to replace the old one? i want a clean install.
OTA won't work on a custom device (Rooted / Kernel / Recovery), I'm surprised you even got the notification for an update tbh
You'll have to update manually when the firmware arrives as a flashable ROM
