[Q] Help please! Exclamation Point!

I got the 2.3.5 Update OTA on my One-click-root Nexus and applied the update, but now I'm stuck on the android/exclamation point screen.

That's the stock recovery - hold power and hit vol up to get the menu.

I've been doing that, but nothing happens.

I did a battery pull, and it rebooted in 2.3.4
So what am I doing wrong? Do I need to change something before trying the update again?

Hold power and slide from volume down to volume up. But that wont do u any good you need to flash a custom recovery and reflash super user.

So I goofed something up on my phone?
Is there a way to do this without losing all my app info/game saves?
I was going to run a TItanium backup.
And sorry, I'm a total noob with this.
ROM Manager, would I flash an older ROM or the ClockworkMod Recovery?
At that point could i just install the update and re root with Shabby Penguin's one click and then get all my app data back from Titanium backup?

Nothing is goofed up if you rebooted into 2.3.4.
The update did not apply. Did you receive the OTA or download it manually?
If you are unlocked just flash CWM via fastboot and apply it from there.
If you are locked then you can go back into the stock recovery, hold power down and hit vol up (in that order) to get the menu and apply the update. You may want to ensure it is in the root of the sdcard and named update.zip.
The OTA does not wipe nor is a wipe necessary, so you shouldn't be losing any data/apps.

I got the update OTA, but not it's not asking me if I want to apply it.
I'm sorry I'm such a noob here, but step wise.
If I boot up with Vol UP, I can then go to Recovery and get to ClockWork Recovery.
From there do I just hit update from SD card?

Yeah, choose apply update. Choose your zip from the SD card and apply.
It will go through a series of asserts and then apply if it passes. If you've modified any of the checked system files, boot image or kernel it's likely going to fail.

Well, I didn't alter any of them on purpose
I used Shabby Penguin's one click root so I could use Titanium Backup only. (Although now I'll probably add tethering to the list) So I don't think I changed any kernel files.
It's saying it can't find the file. Whatever downloaded must have gotten deleted somehow. I may just download the update and do it myself like everyone else.
Just to clarify. I place the update.zip in the root and select apply update on the ClockWorkMod Recovery, and that's it?
I was waiting to just get the update OTA organically hoping it would avoid these problems, lol.

In CWM use the choose zip file from SD card option, then you can pick the file regardless of it's name.
That's it - if you are stock (other than rooting) it should apply without any issues.
You may need to reflash CWM and delete /etc/install-recovery.sh to keep CWM installed. I haven't looked at the update itself to see if it is installing the script to reflash the stock recovery.

I had this problem too. I rebooted and its back to 2.3.4. I will attempt to go to 2.3.5 today once I have more time and post my findings here. If anyone has any success please keep updating this thread.

It looks like I have to reflash CWM in order to restore Super User.
My bootloader is still unlocked, but it won't let me run/install CWM. How do I do this?

Jagar, I did finally figure this out after reading through the code in the rooting .bat that Shabby Penguin put together.
basically his file has the Clockwork Recovery image that you need.
Boot up in bootloader.
then type
fastboot flash recovery ______.img whatever image you have.
Then select RECOVERY on the bootloader menu and now you can install the superuser.zip file to re-root.

you might wanna just run the new one click again, make sure its version 2.0.. it will do teh dirty work for ya

Seriously Shabby, big props to you for automating that process. I learned much more from your code than reading through all those other posts

@gnuf99 although you succeeded in getting root , please do read the guides abt adb and fastboot. This will be always handy for you, indifferent of the device you'll use later.

[Q] New Transformer User (Rooting)

So, I finally got myself a transformer (B60). Used it for about a week, and decided i wanted to root it. I read around to make sure I wasn't going to bork my device. Rooted it just fine using razorclaw since i was on .19. I installed CWM with RecoveryInstaller, rebooted to recovery (using an app) and flashed this.
I played around with it a little more, and turned it off for the night. When i turned it back on this morning, my root seems to be gone. The superuser.apk is still installed, but every app that tries to request root says that I'm not rooted. If i go into terminal emulator, I can verify that busybox is installed, but when i try to SU, i get
Code:
reloc_library[1315]: 1038 cannot locate '_mktemp'...
CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE
Does anyone know a way to fix this? Since I'm now on .21 do to flashing the pre-rooted update is there a way to root .21?
Edit: Key thing i may be missing... is there a way to get back to CWM via hardware buttons? On my phone it's just camera + volume down and power. Does the volume down + power allow me to get into CWM? The options i saw were i believe wipe data and boot into android...

You could try re-rooting the tablet with Root Toolkit and see if it works.

If you actually had CWM installed, power + vol down at boot will bring you to CWM

I had CWM installed, but when i use the volume down + power i get a message asking me if i want to go into RCK and then it gives me 2 options wipe data or boot into android.
DOH!!!! That did it. Didn't realize that RCK meant CWM Thanks, i should be able to get things working from here hopefully. I know my way around CWM enough.
Edit: Apparently what I thought would fix the issue, didn't. I think there might be an incompatibility with the pre-rooted rom and the way i rooted?

I do think so, last option available is re-root

If you can still get into CWM recovery you have options to flash custom ROM or even the 8.6.5.21 rooted rom

Awesome, will the universal rootkit still work then? From what I've read .21 is a no root scenario.
Edit: Per this post, i should be good to go.

I also lost root when I upgraded to the latest rooted OTA. I get the same error as the OP in terminal emulator. I am going to give it a couple days and see if there is a fixed update and then I will probably just flash the full rooted rom.

I'm on a B60 and I was able to use the universal root v7.1. This fixed the loss of root just fine.

[Q] Red triangle in locked stock recovery

Hi All,
Problem with TF700 with JB, rooted but not unlocked. I cannot enter into stock recovery: after volDown - volUP I have dead droid with red triangle. I think this my mistake: after was rooted in ICS .26, not unlocked, I tryed to install GooManager - after that I cannot enter to recovery in ICS. After that JB OTA installation was no problem, i backup and restore root, but still not have recovery.
So, now I have root in JB and can you point me to answer, how I can return stock recovery without unlock?
Thank you!

This relates to same problem I have . See cannot open recovery in JB in this same QA forum a little further back. I get the icons and when I pick recovery I get to Red triangle Andy but then no matter what combo of buttons pushed nothing happens. In my thread I was given a solution but I am locked but rooted and I believe had to be unlocked to use it. My question is can you get to recovery with a locked rooted tab to wipe cache etc . I can no longer get to that menu.

I think what buhohitr was saying is that RCK is a recovery that you can only boot into when there is an update file waiting to be updated on the microSD card. Otherwise, it does nothing but give you that Android with the Red Triangle.
I can confirm this on JB, never tried it while still on ICS.

It seems that the only solution is to unlock and put a custom recovery on . Unfortunately for me I did not unlock for warranty reasons and I updated to .30 and JB OTA and now it seems I have painted myself into a corner since I did not do nvflash or unlock downloads before accepting .30 and JB OTA. It appears ICS stock recovery is gone. Thanks for responses in this and my other thread Tom

No, you're not corner, you can easily downgrade from JB to .30 (download full version from Asus site), root your device, install superSU then save root with Voodoo OTA root keeper, then upgrade to JB through OTA, restore root using Voodoo OTA root keeper and you all set.

How to apply OTA update on Rooted At&t One X

Hi,
I have this AT&T one x, (I m using on NON AT&T network), so cant have an ota update.
Looking at few forums, downloaded the OTA version on XDA (631 Mb)
Saw people writing, that just rename the file to update.zip and then go to recovery and choose install from internal memory.
That dint work for me.
Error: not able to mount sd mem
Then few people wrote to choose install from external mem.
That dint work either.
Error: not able to mount sd mem
Then saw few people saying that I need to root my device and unlock bootloader.
I dint that, and tried from bootlaoder to install from zip.
That also dint work.
Now saw, I few wrote that i need to be S - OFF.
Which I tried doing it, but i m not able to do s-off for myself.
Pls pls pls.... can any of you EXPERTs out here help me.
Waited like for AT&T to release the update, now when it is out, i m not able to make it through.
Your step by step instruction would be highly appreciable.

Be aware, that if you have the AT&T version, and you are rooted, then you probably have SuperCID (in fact, you must have SuperCID, unless it was already changed back). If you have SuperCID you must S-off (or return to the AT&T CID) before applying the OTA, or you will brick your phone!
I am not all that familiar with the process to install using OTA.zip (and haven't done it myself), but it was discussed in these threads:

If yes, where can i find stock recovery, i have deleted it.

By "i deleted it" do you mean you installed a custom recovery? If so, yes you need to get stock recovery back on.
Only way I know of to reinstall stock recovery is to run the 2.20 ruu. Since you're s-off, you don't need to relock; just run it.

You probably have a custom recovery. Reboot to bootloader and select recovery and see what you get. If it's TWRP, you'll get a teamwin splash screen and then some options. Stock recovery will just show a screen with a green circle.

I have already done that.
And now in case anyone needs help, i can help those people out.
Coz the method is simple, but it is not at all explained clearly in any of the threads.
It has come in bit and pieces.

I have noticed one thing.
That after installing the update and again unlockin the bootloader and rooting, I am not able to see "TAMPERED" being written in the boatloader.
Also, now when I am rooted and also have SU permission, I m not able to switch on my WiFi tether with the files mentioned in the thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1677261

The "TAMPERED" flag goes away when you're s-off and flash a new hboot.
I believe wifi tether is blocked on the new AT&T base. You can flash a custom rom on the 3.17 base and it should work.

[RESOLVED] Bootloader Unlocked, rooted, OTA update failing?

Hey all,
Ok, so I rooted my Razr HD, unlocked the boot loader, and now would like to take the latest OTA update. It is failing right now. I tried a factory reset before doing it, and saved root with voodoo and all that. I am assuming though, that it is failing because the recovery is not stock? It's TWRP.
What do I need to do to get the damned OTA update installed, and then have the custom recovery with root intact?
Thanks!

Used clockwork mod instead, downloaded stock image, flashed using RSD Lite 6.1.4.

You can go the hard route and re-load the stock recovery, re-load all of the stock apps, and take the OTA. You can also fastboot to the latest OTA and just re-root. It's easy to re-root with an unlocked BL, you just need to flash SU in recovery. The easiest option is to find a stock ROM on here and just flash it. I believe there are a couple in dev section. Also, there is one on Batakang that's based off of the latest DST ROM.

as long as you didnt delete or freeze any stock apps put stock recovery back on using this tool. http://www.mediafire.com/download/tt7cwwua49n24uv/Razr_HD_Recovery_Flasher_V7.rar then take the update. make a note of your baseband before you start because the update is going to fail at the end even if it installs. the bb will let you know if you got all you could or if there are issues. afterwards, restore root and use the tool to put cwm or twrp back on.

Hi guys,
So i had my phone rooted with an unlocked bootloader running CM for quite some time. I decided yesterday to go back to stock (factory reset via matts utility). Its been hitting me with an OTA update since then, and i kept hitting install later...install later....
and today i accidentally hit install now. So it tried to do it via CWM recovery, and obviously failed. and when it fails, no matter what i do, it reboots back to the system (which is good), but then immediately tries to run the update again.
Is there any way for me to get this to stop happening? I turned off my phone in case i have to do something via fastboot (save the battery). but can i maybe flash the stock recovery through the utility? would that do it?
Thanks for any help!

This is for the 907 but same steps as for the 926, just get the 404 xml for the 926 & mod the xml as I did for/in the xml file.
There are several steps to delete.

Just compare the stock & mod9 xmls, no secrets.

Just be warned that downgrading to 4.0.4 will NOT allow you to unlock the bootloader.
