Hi,
I have an odd problem. I have rooted my nexus S and am on 2.3.2, and have clockwork recovery. however in order to apply the update to 2.3.3, it doesnt not work with clockwork recovery, and so I was trying to flash stock recovery using a recovery.img file from one of the stock nandroids on the site.
when I am in bootloader, and i try fastboot flash recovery recovery.img where this is the stock recovery image, it gives me a "remote: Write Fail" error.
However I have no problem in using the same command to flash clockwork recovery image.
Does anyone know why this is happening? and does anyone know how i can flash the stock recovery image back to my phone so I can apply the update to 2.3.3?
Thanks,

CWM will apply the signed 2.3.3 update without a problem - what issue are you having where you can't apply through CWM?

so I downloaded the update and changed the filename to update.zip and put it in the root of /sdcard/
then when I boot into clockwork mod recovery, and click "apply update from sdcard" it starts running and after getting to verifying current system i get the following error
assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/build.prop",...)
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted
and idea what is causing the problem? im a complete noob when it comes to this stuff

Yeah - it's checking build.prop and it's either been modified or you are not running a stock rom.
It's going to check quite a few files in the system partition and verify they match what it's expecting (as it is patching them) before it performs the update. If they don't match it will not proceed and you will get an assert failed error. This is not a boot loader problem, rather a file problem.
Did you apply anything that would have updated build.prop?

Yes i did, I added in a few lines to increase my download speeds, and set it so that it always locks to hspa... if i remove the lines and resave build.prop file should that fix the issue and allow me to update?

So i tried the above... i removed the two extra lines I had added to build.prop and tried the update but it still gives the same error? Do you know of any way I can get around this error or is the only way to do a titanium backup and flash the stock 2.3.3 version that has been posted in another link?
Thanks for your quick replies.
You may be able to flash the full update. Or get a build.prop from a 2.3.2 build if someone can pull it.

It says Error in file, have you tried redownloading it? Did you manually download the OTA file or did you get it the usual way (search for updates in phone).

I downloaded it directly from device
It says:
Code:
Verifying current system...
assert failed: blablabla
To me, this means:
It checks the system on your device to see if it can take this OTA, but the hash of your build.prop file does not match what it expects.
Maybe this OTA is not for your device or you're not on truly stock 1.53.

Hi Guys,
I have tried many of the ROMs available however, for the most part, I get this error "error executing updater binary" in TWRP. I have also tried CWM and Philz recovery. The only ROM that installs is CM11. Does any one know what is the issue? Anyone got a solution? Thanks.
Current Recovery: TWRP 2.7.1.1
I'm the only one experiencing this issue?
Specifically which ROMs have you tried?
Transmitted via Bacon
I've tried the following:
AOSP from the Oneplus homepage
AOSP flapped
mahdi-rom
Team GUMMY
Are you checking the md5 when you download?
Transmitted via Bacon
No, I did not. However, having said that, would it really be the case of corrupt downloads across multiple roms? As well, CM11 installs perfectly fine.
I'll do some checking now.

It's possible, I'm just throwing out the usual causes of your problem. It wouldn't be the first time it's happened.
Transmitted via Bacon
Well, just re-downloaded AOSP from the oneplus homepage and flapped AOSP. I also checked their md5 hashes; they match. I will report back.
I'm getting this same message, except I'm getting it when trying to install the new OTA update. I'm rooted with custom recovery, but haven't flashed any ROM. After I download the update, I push "install update" and my phone reboots into TWRP to install the update, and then gives me the "error executing updater binary" error. I tried downloading the update manually off the web and installing it via TWRP on my own, but it gave me the same message. Not really sure what else to do at this point.

Just tried to flash both, both times I get the "error executing updater binary" error. I do not have the technical expertise to try to correct this.
Anyone else with any ideas?
Unzip the ROM that works and the ROM that doesn't with 7zip, then swap the update-binary from the working to the non. Rezip (set to store) then either sign the ROM or toggle SIG verification in recovery, then make nandroid, wipe clean, flash
By the way, what version do you have? 16 64? Chinese? Can you get bootloader info?

The ROM that works is CM11 nightly and the one that I would like to install is pure AOSP. Are you certain that their update binary files would/could be interchangeable?
And how to do you "set to store"? I use 7zip.
I have the international 64GB. And I am not sure how to check my bootloader.
I really do apologize for my newb-ness on this matter.
There shouldn't be an issue, but of course I can't promise as I don't know what specifically is going on in your case
When you choose zip, there you will have different compression options, choose store
Try
fastboot oem device-info

No worries, we all are noobs in our own ways

Hi have same problem here.
my Bootloader is unlocked, I have phone rooted, I use last bacon twrp version. I already clean all phone.
I could install any rom, finally I found cm-11.0-XNPH44S-bacon-signed-fastboot.zip with fastboot.bat file that helped me to recover my phone.
I did all steps from all guys I searched, I can't know why I always appear error "error executing updater binary".
I tried cm-12-20150124-NIGHTLY-bacon.zip, I tried BlissPop-v1.8-bacon-OFFICIAL-20150123-2230.zip, all same error. I also tried to install original cm-11, same error.
I don't know what to do more or why? I checked Bootloader is unlocked.

I get the exact same error, as you I can only flash CM-11, strange cause I was running Euphoria OS Lollipop!
Someone must know the cause!

I'm having exactly same problem. So is this common problem or what? I had multirom and xposed framework but after uninstalling them both I get the same error again. I hope this does not happen when we are getting the Lollipop-update. Sry for bad enklish.
Anyone help?
Will I continue to get OTA software updates if I root and unlock the boot loader (to install TWRP)?
Thanks,

Yes, make sure to untick to update the recovery in the debug options

Yes.Of course.But it happened to me that the update script showed some errors. I had to fix them by downloading the original files and replacing my system files.
want to love this device but it seems like its always something.

Can I dirty flash the nightlies from CM11S if I have just unlocked the bootlader and rooted?
There is no nightly for CM11s just for CM11.
I recommend to do a clean install including factory reset.
Keep in mind that after flashing something, you need to flash root at the end too

So we will still get OTA's great! Great phone for costumizations.

That does not happen if you just unlock, root and install a custom recovery.
Also a custom kernel would be fine

Sorry if this is a bit of a n00b question (I know people are sensitive about that!) but I have searched around a bit and not found a solution to this issue. Here's the situation...
So what i've done so far is unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP, and SuperSU (so I have root). I also unchecked the update recovery box in dev options. When told I need to update I downloaded the update, hit install, the phone reboots and takes me to TWRP. When in TWRP I hit install, navigate to the cache and try to install the update /cache/cm-bacon-d22b777afa-to-4f280f505a-signed.zip
When I do that, I get the following:
"

Seems TWRP expects a MD5 file.
I use CWM as recovery and can install the update OTA. Maybe try CWM recovery

Yeah, you gotta open the zip on your pc, modify META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script and remove the code (its in the top part) that mentions the incompatible data error. Then try flashing again.

Hi Everyone
Can anyone please stop my suffering? I tried everything and I am lost...
My phone kept asking me to update to KAS254 which I finally managed to do by flashing stock recovery...but now it is giving me another OTA, some weird alphanumeric combination, around 60MB.
Thing is I cannot update it and the update keeps popping up and I am going crazy already.
TWRP returns this log:

You can not do OTA with a customer recovery like TWRP. If you want the latest stock firmware you will need to download the latest from https://cyngn.com/support and flash all the files via fastboot then reinstall TWRP and SuperSU for root.

What do you mean did not work? What happen when you flashed all the stock files via fastboot?
are you saying that I should apply the downloaded file via fastboot?
what I did is downloaded the recovery and updated to KAS54, then another update popped up and again I cannot update...no I get the same error, but this time it says I have KAS254 and the package expects something newer..
