Well, do you remember installing a custom recovery?
If you can't remember that far back then boot into bootloader and choose recovery option and see if it boots into a custom recovery.
BTW the OTA will fail if you are rooted even if you have stock recovery.
Thanks!

I rooted my ville c2 and installed twrp. And after that i downloaded OTA 4.1.1 and clicked the install button. But it ended up in twrp. And i can't even flash the ota.zip through twrp and fastboot. It always said error. status 7... So somebody show me a way and if you have stock recovery.img, share it please.

you need the stock recovery for installing OTAs,
flash the stock recovery and install the OTA (you dont need to relock your bootloader)
after installing the OTA you can flash your custom recovery back again.
It could be that you will loose your root after installing the OTA so you have to root your phone again.
I dont have any experience with root-keeper etc. so I cant tell you anything about it.
you will find the stock recovery for the One S C2 here:

Hi... im currently running
CROMi-X v5.2.2, which is based on rom 10.6.1.27.5 with twrp 2.5.0.0 and my bootloader says is the one that came with us10.6.1.15.3-20130416...
To install omni kitkat, im been asked to have the latest bootloader, to avoid screwing up im planning on insalling the latest stock from asus...
However, each time i install a stock through twrp or cwr, the new image not only updates the bootloader and deletes all my data, but rewrites my recovery, for which then i have too reupload using fastboot to upload the recovery...
Is there any way to make sure i dont loose the recovery after flashing a stock firmware... or a way to flash the recovery from the recovery before rebooting after flashing the stock?
Thanks everyone!

Flashing the stock ROM reverts the tablet back to stock, so the recovery must go. Luckily, the bootloader you are on is compatible with the KitKat recovery (10.6.1.15.3) so you shouldnt have to flash the stock ROM at all. If you were on 10.6.1.8, you would have had to upgrade.

Asked the same question about my bootloader at the omni thread to be sure, if they say that it works too, will go ahead and give it a try
Hey I have a D800 but the software is D80020u. Its on 4.4.2. I use IO root and successfully rooted my device. But when ever I try to install Clockworkmod 6.0.4.4. and reboot into recovery it just stock wipes my entire phone. It never switch to Clockwork Recovery.

Use AutoRec. It will downgrade your bootloader to be able to flash recovery.
Same issue here
Flashing it back to jellybean worked for me! Thank you again Xda !

Flashed Lollipop. Then flashed custom recovery TWRP 2.8.1.0 which asked to install supersu. Now I can't get rid of it. From looking online my only options are to add root then full unroot or reflash the stock image.. Any way around this?
Y not have root?

You have to be complete stock, no root, stock recovery and kernel.
Unrooting and flashing the stock recovery and kernel will NOT work,
you will need to flash the 4.4.4 firmware first.

I did flash it to stock ROM but still it showed signature verification failed and some root error. BTW I still have cwm not the original recovery !!
well apparently you dont clearly read the guides,you cant install official updates with custom recovery, you need everything original stock and no root. read the guides first before posting

Get the recovery.img and run "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" from bootloader mode.
Do it at your own risk^^^
everything worked perfectly
I flashed recovery as u advised me then did everything which was suggested in the original thread the only problem was recovery stock recovery is pretty tricky thing to open I had to press volume up for 9 sec for 10th sec the power button at the same time and it worked
Thnx everyone I really appreciate it
Moto G XT1034 4.4.4 to 5.0.2 update problem
I received Lollipop OTA notification for my XT1034 today (Retail Canada) and I downloaded and installed it but the phone got stuck at Motorola logo. I waited for about 45 mins on this screen but got desperate and turned it off (hard reset)
Tried to enter recovery and still it says Bootloader 41.13, tried to wipe cache partition and completed the process but after reboot it gets stuck at logo again, please help!
