I currently have a Moto G 8GB rooted on ver 4.4.2 stock rom
For the last 2 weeks I have been getting pop ups telling me to update my phone to 4.4.4 but because I am rooted I always pressed 'No, maybe later', but today I was unlocking my phone and i saw the pop up to update, i wasn't thinking and I accidentally pressed 'Yes, im in'. About 10 seconds after pressing Yes, im in' I saw a system update download notification, so i instantly turned my phone off. When ever I turn my phone on the system update downloading notification comes up.
What can I do to stop the update?
Thanks in advance for the help!
As far as I know you can't stop the download, but when I did an update on stock after the download finishes you are asked if you want to install it, click no and then delete the update from your phone,

You can turn off you cellular data and that will also stop the download. But once it is back on then the download will continue unless there is a way to delete the actual file. But if you are on WiFi then just turn that off. Either way, you can stop the download but what you do after that is unknown.

Thanks for that. I have got the update downloaded but I don't know where it is stored. Can you tell me where I can find the file?

I'm not to sure about that,but you may be able to find it with this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.levelokment.storageanalyser it will show the contents of your SD partition in order of how much data is contained in the folders from highest to lowest, I think the update is between 400 and 450MB

No idea if this works, but the file is under /cache. Not on your internal memory, but in the actual /root directory of your phone. You'll need a Root explorer to find and delete the file. Good luck!
Thnaks Guys for all the help. I fixed the problem by downloading the update and then deleting it from the /cache folder
May I ask if I am already rooted and unlocked in 4.4.2, can i just OTA update to 4.4.4?
Will root still intact (using root keeper or whatever)?

You've to remove root and make sure. you didn't modify anything in the /system partition.If you did debloat your phone or modified /system, then you need to flash the stock one first, then you can update and root your device again.

I'm having the same problem except I can't find it in my cache folder.
In my cache folder there are: backup, lost+found, recovery folders, none of which seems to have a 160MB~ file.

OK, so I finally got the system update for the D2G yesterday. I'm not new to this whole game, so I removed Clockworkmod, unrooted, and installed the update. The update downloads fine, but the with the little Android guy screen, I get an "!" in a triangle and then the phone reboots.
Maybe I didn't remove clockwork all the way? Don't you delete hijack and logwrapper, and then rename the logwrapper.bin to logwrapper?
well basiclly the phone needs to be untouch in terms of the file structure, in my case, I deleted a few of the stock apk files and when I tried to do the update it would fail because the stock apps were missing and the update is a patch not a full system OS so it cant install the default apps, I had to install them back to the system/app with root explorer and then set the permissions back to what they needed to be, unforchenitly a hard reset would not install the stock apps. Also make sure anything that the root touched has been set back to default
I have the same problem too. I can't get the update to work at all after installing Fission ROM. I even restored from a nandroid from a fresh D2G. It worked fine on the untouched phone tho. I checked all the files in the /system/app and they were there. Is there any magical restore .zip perhaps?

I never touched anything... I stopped using Titanium Backup a long time ago when I uninstalled everything verizon and had the same OTA problem you described. I am at a loss for the problem that I have! All I ever did was root and put on clockwork, and I made sure they were gone when I updated.
Please, someone help!
did you uninstall of freeze any of the stock apps in /system/app? You need to restore them in order to successfully apply the OTA update. One file missing or modified in /system and checksums will fail/update fails.

the only time I touched anything in /system was when I removed clockwork by deleting hijack and renaming logwrapper.bin. Can anyone give me a number of files I'm supposed to have in /system, or maybe a way to go back to stock. Man, that SBF would be mighty helpful right now...
There is system dump laying around. I'll PM you the link (not sure if appropriate to post it here). You can use it to compare content and recover missing file(s).

Hi, I've been trying to find an answer, and I think you could help me.
I had the same problem as this person you were helping, but I already knew that I should look through the system dump and compare. I did that, and deleted one file called dbus.conf from /system/ect. Now, my phone just does the DROID animation over and over again! Please help, I made a copy of dbus.conf on my computer and did a nandroid backup. Please, you or someone else on here, HELP!
So you are in a boot loop. If you can't get the phone to boot into clockwork recovery, today is your lucky day! SBF was finally released!!! Get the SBF and reflash /system

Where is it? Isn't it only available to those with some app called TBH (or something like that)? And now I have to wait for a public release? And, if I'm wrong, can you give me a link to thee file? I can't find it anywhere...
Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it!
I would recommend you to approach the team black hat members and talk to them directly about how to get the sbf while your phone is non functional.

Hi there! I'm running a 'vanila' ICS 4.0.4 Nexus S. After the last reboot i'm having multiple pop-ups about applications that were forced to stop. Literally all system apps (Contacts, Messaging, Market etc), Google apps were forced to close. Phone doesn't rings and so on.
Most sad fact is that i can't even manage to install any program for backing up the phone and make a factory reset.
What can I do now?
Any help is much appreciated

try this first: go to cwm, choose fix permissions, and see if it works. if not, you can do this: do a nandroid backup with cwm, then, factory reset everything. cache, data EVERYTHING. install any rom of your choice, then, download the titanium backup app, and you can extract app and data from the nandroid backup using titanium. never tested this my self since i backup everything before flashing and clear all data, so app crashes.
hope this helps and please hit the thanks button of you find this helpful!

Oh, I see. You must have installed the update from 2.3 without wiping. Or something like that. Based on my knowledge, the best things you can do are:
1. Wipe/factory reset then reboot.
Or
Root your phone. Which wipes everything including the SD card partition. You can back up the SD card easy. I suggest the latter. So you can flash custom recovery images and do lots more than 'clean' ICS. One more thing, unrooted and unmodified is technically called stock. You will see this word a lot of times. Hope this helps.

I had similar conditions, I thought it was kernel/rom problem. and now it seems not!
I fix it this way: go into CWM recovery, backup, and then immediately restore. and the problem is gone. I know it sounds crazy, but it really works for me... every time.

ok guys, thanks for the help. but i'm thinking of the other way around
can i copy stock ICS 4.0.4 fw file on to internal storage and try to update the phone from HBOOT menu (the one called up with holding 'volume up' key)?
the thing is i have some info on the phone such as sms that i'd like to keep
or perhaps copy whole 'content' of the storage to my pc and move sms base or whatever back after factory reset?
is there a way to access internal storage while in HBOOT menu, cos in the loaded up state i can't copy fw file due to crashing system apps?

I suspect the SMS are stored in the system partition... Google it. If it is, again, you need root to access those files.

The update also mentions Google+... Not sure I've ever had an issue with Google+ on my phone though...
"Software version D80020k for the LG G2 is now available starting April 8, 2014. This update brings Host Card Emulation (HCE) support and updates to Google+."
I just updated today, was running 80020c with the modified boot.img (for custom recovery). Flashed all the way back to 80010c and went through the update process... 80010c -> 80010o -> 80010q -> 80020c -> 80020k -> Rooted via IORoot25. I keep cloud backups of data (SMS, MMS, call logs, etc.) and applications (apk + data), so I never worry about losing data by a factory reset.

This would require quite a bit of work. The update contains a dlpkgfile which nobody has figured out how to decompress. It's not a normal zip, bzip, gzip, lzip, lhzip, or anything I can decompress. Looking through the file's data it's obvious that it's compressed using opensource code, but LG must have put their own "spin" on it.
About the only thing I can think of doing to extract the changes would be to do a fresh factory reset, go through all the updates and take a snapshot of the /system partition prior to this small update, do the update, and then take another snapshot after the update. Using some file comparison tools such as Meld in Linux I can compare the before/after to capture the differences. Totally possible to do, just very time consuming. Here's the rough steps if someone wants to do it themselves...
1. revert back to D80010d (LGFlashtool)
2. use OTA process to upgrade to 80020c
3. root using IOroot25
4. take a snapshot of /system partition using "dd"
5. use OTA process to upgrade to 80020k
6. take a second snapshot of /system partition using "dd"
7. mount snapshots on Linux desktop
8. compare mounted snapshots using Meld
This will only capture differences on the /system partition. If there are updates to other partitions then those partitions would also have to extracted and compared as well.

Hi!
I've a big problem...
My nexus 5 configuration: TWRP recovery - Root privileges - Android 4.2.2
The smartphone notified me the availability of Android 4.3.3. I accepted and the package has been downloaded. The phone has rebooted, but there was no trace of the installation. The phone is divided into TWRP recovery.
I rebooted the system from recovery. The system is still Android 4.2.2 and tells me that the system is updated. In fact he says "last update check xx.xx" (where xx.xx is the hour).
Do you have suggestions on how to proceed?
You're my only hope!!
Thank you,

you have to manually select the ota file to install with twrp. its in /cache i think, but im not 100% sure of that location

how to copy TWRP nandroid backup to device?
I need to restore and I don't know how to copy from my hdd to the phone.
The phone is not booting but I can get to twrp recovery.
Latest TWRP has MTP mode.
but it doesn't allow me to copy one of the backup files which is: data.ext4.win000 and it's 1.5GB
You'll need to give us more information.
Why did it fail? Why did your phone stop booting?
1. flashed bigxie_hammerhead_LRX21O-signed.zip
2. flashed CF-Auto-Root-hammerhead-hammerhead-nexus5
3. booted fine but still had apps like Ti backup & TWRP not working due to root permissions
4. Went to recovery and performed Fix permission.
5. stuck in boot loop

I have had the same problem with my motox 14 the way I found around it was to copy the file to a different fold and use twrp file explore to move it to the back up folder. That has worked for me and a few others try it out it will work.
how can you copy using twrp while in recovery? are you able to access your PC from recovery?

You'll need to factory reset then reflash the ROM
Fix permissions was not required here. You need titanium beta from his twitter feed.
ok i got the phone working and lost my data but I have it backed on PC.
I just see that 10GB is used but when I browse the phone using file explorer, the device is empty.... what??
Is it a known issue?

Well the answer in the 100 other threads about space say that you must wipe data and cache.
Root should be fine, but as already mentioned, not with official titanium release.
I already did a wipe data and cache. So I don't understand why I still get this but I'll try again.
The Ti Backup link in the twitter feed is no longer valid, but for example, ES file explorer and clean master and also TWRP app are not performing as if they are rooted.
I'll try to re-install CF-Auto-Root-hammerhead-hammerhead-nexus5

I already did a wipe data and cache. So I don't understand why I still get this but I'll try again.
The Ti Backup link in the twitter feed is no longer valid, but for example, ES file explorer and clean master and also TWRP app are not performing as if they are rooted.

ES doesn't work properly, correct. Not all apps have been updated to work with L yet either.
L is much more secure than KK. There are ways to root.
1) chain fire - makes small change in RAMdisk that allows sudaemon to work at boot
2)flash a permissive kernel - this lowers protection within selinux.
More apps work with the 2nd method, but still not all.
New titanium coming to play soon.
