Flash over PA
Hi, Thanks for the post.
I'm on PA, can i flash it dirty? Is there any change log to the 44s?
I was using your stock rooted 38R. Time for this new one now. Thanks for your great work
Is dirty flash on 38R safe?
how to flash xnph44s?
could you somehow show hot to flash it, i really need it, tq so much
Maybe i've missed something but just to be sure ; coming from stock 38r is it possible to make a straight dirty flash from stock recovery ?
Getting signature faillure here..
I just flashed the rooted 44S through the 38R rooted without flash the radio files. I have normal root after i updated the super su from play store and install it with the normal option. Do i must flash the radio files too? All seems to work ok
Just flashed 44s and I cannot change system icons

Do you have this file and is it OTA safe !! Or just flash this ROM ( no wipe data need right!! )
Thanks . . .
Help Needed
What are the prerequisites for flashing the rooted 44s?
So i have the 38R version from calkulin instaled, which should be OTA safe, but when I try to do the incremental update on TWRP the following message is shown:
"Checking for MD5 file...
Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found
E: Error executing updater binary in zip "/cache/"filename".zip"
And it fails to flash the zip, any ideias on why this is happening and out to solve it?
Under TWRP setting i have both "skip md5 generation during backup." and "Enable MD5 verification of backup files." unchecked.
If you moded your ROM you might not be able to update it. Easiest solution might be to flash calkulin's version again.

stock rooted XNPH44S ROM problem
After installing Calkulin's stock rooted XNPH44S ROM (many thanks Calkulin!), I understood that there was no need for a SuperSU app. So I uninstalled it and enabled root (App+ADB). But something is not well with this root new method.
My "Titanium Backup" app get stuck in the window "accessing root rights" and after a while I get a message saying that it was not able to get root access with the command "/system/xbin/su"
Apparently this is not the only one. The "File Manager" app also get stuck and after a while stops with the sorry message.
The funny thing is that I installed SuperSU 2.16 and everything is fine now.
So, I am confused. SuperSU is needed or not?
If so, should we also enable root in the develop settings?
Or should I reinstall the ROM with "persist.sys.root_access=1"?
Thanks for the support

So I bought Nexus S from second hand recently mostly because it will get official ICS support from Google.
So because it's second hand buy, I really don't know if I'm using original bootloader, kernel, radio etc.
It's rooted (because I have Superuser app), I think it has stock 2.3.6 android (build number GRK39F) and kernel version 2.6.35.7-gf5f63ef, [email protected]#1.
Can someone who use stock android and original kernels confrime to me that this is right version?
I really want to update to ICS using incremental update which I found here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445635) but I'm affraid to don't screw something because of bad experience when I radio bricked my desire
Can I update it to ICS or I need to do unroot or something?
Just download the correct stock ICS rom for your device (if it is I9020T or I9023) ,put it on the SD root and then flash it using the stock or CWM recovery and be done with it (if you need the ICS)
most likely you won't be update by OTA because you are rooted (system file verification will fail)
just download stock ICS ROM and flash it ...
Ota will install fine if its a stock rom with just root. The update script basically checks that everything that should be there is there . If there is something else in there like su it don't matter.
flashing a new rom is the best way to go if you have cwm installed already
I succesfuly flashed ICS and first impressions are very good.
But I think I lost recovery...

flash a CWM recovery via adb , or there is TWRP recovery in DEV section , which is very good .
Hi all,
Since a few days I'm trying to update my Nexus 5 to Android 4.4.4 but everything I've tryed has failed !
Today I'm running stock ROM 4.4.2 + root + TWRP recovery + Xposed
What I've tryed :
_ OTA : device reboot on recovery and does nothing
_ Flash stock using the latest Nexus Rom Toolkit from Wug Refresh : device reboot on bootloader and get stuck on a "downloading..." message while PC get stuck on "downloading bootloader"
_ Flash zip from TWRP : tryed several zip, all of them has failed
I don't know what to do next, so now I'm asking your help...
Also I hope this post is in the right section !
Download vomer's stock rooted 4.4.4 rom from the development section and dirty flash it from custom recovery. This should do the job.
You can find the mentioned rooted stock in my signature, section 6.6

Before trying this custom ROM could you explain me the difference with the stock ROM and why I cannot flash the stock one ?
Is it because I have Xposed or something ?
And also after flashing the custom by vomer, can I try to flash again the stock one ?

The One which we are telling you to flash is the stock rom. Yes, it's because you have Xposed and other modules installed.. God knows what changes it has made to system.
There's no need to flash the factory images again as vomer's thread contains the stock itself.

All of your questions have already been answered, except the Vomer ROM one. While technically a custom ROM, it is only stock ROM with root. So going back to pure stock would be pointless.

So, i have a Moto G Dual-SIM Retail on 4.4.2 and i've been noticing some minor bugs, but i think the OTA updates would be able to solve it for me. But on the other hand, my device is rooted and i have quite a lot of things (XPosed Modules and etc) on it, as well as a custom recovery (I think it is CWM). How do i update, only gotta restore stock recovery and update normally via OTA? No need to reset anything? Root will remain along with my Xposed Modules?
Thanks in advance.
You need stock recovery (some have reported that philz recovery also works) and stock kernel with stock modules. Root remains. You just need to reinstall xposed framework from installer. Modules remain.
Quick way is flash 4.4.3 vesion for Bazil utmsds ( for dual sim).

Where can i get the stock recovery and how to flash it? Currently using PhilZ but it doesn't let me do the OTA update.
And there's a thread on this section that shows how to restore stock firmware, but i'm already running it and would not wan't to wipe out the phone or anything just to update.
Thanks anyway guys!
PS: Now that i tried this without success, phone goes on rebooting to Philz Recovery after a while in attempt to update (and fails everytime of course)
EDIT again: Done it by getting recovery.img from stock firmware and flashing via fastboot (Android SDK), but now getting error while phone tries to update and when it boots get "update unsuccessful" warning.
Because u use Xposed and some module. Best way u should use Titanium Backup, backup all you apps,after that,use Root Explore ,copy whole sdcard to yr PC, flash stock 4.4.3,root and copy back all detail to sdcard, use Titan backup all apps lost and all data. Done. If not ,u still have to unroot,uninstall Xposed with all module, i mean must do yr phone like stock rom,and update it.

I am able to flash my tablet back to stock and root as well as install custom recovery using Easy Flash, but can't flash KK or a newer version of TWRP. I have run KK before (4.3 I think). Keep getting message that I'm unable to open the zip file.

Well, I was, but with a little help I have now successfully updated twrp to current version. Thanks SidneyK.
However, I am still unable to flash KK 4.4.4-033. I have also tried flashing older versions of KK (i.e., 4.3) with same result. Not sure what to do from here.
Update: Successfully installed KK 4.4.4 using the side loader feature of TWRP. Everything is now right with the world
I have Indian moto g 16 GB Android 4.4.4 I have a few questions
1. I just want to root it without any custom recovery or rom. Only to try apps which require root. I am not interested in custom roms, happy with stock rom. I found Modaco's method for it. But many users did not find it working. Is there any other SIMPLE AND STABLE method for it without messing up with stock rom and recovery?
2. If I successfully root it without custom recovery what will be steps to unroot it and revert it back to stock 4.4.4 so that I could receive future OTA. (i had rooted my HTC one x with custom recovery so I know about unlocking bootloader). Will this process include flashing stock rom as there is already stock rom in phone
3. Is is necessary to download stock firmware if someone decide to revert back from rooted phone to stock. I mean not everyone has fast Internet connection to download those big 400-500 mb . Zip files. I read somewhere that we can backup the entire rom after rooting. So why not flash that backed up rom for reverting process. Why need to download..and For backing up the stock rom do we need to root with custom recovery or the Modaco's method (stock recovery root) will work.
You may find my third question stupid but I am not much into this stuff.
Please answer my all questions whether it is yes or no. You need not to provide detailed descriptions but just clear my confusion. I couldn't find these type of questions anywhere else on Internet. So may be useful for other users too. Thanx

Hey...yes you can root it but doing so requires an unlocked bootloader(which wipes all data on the phone..so backup)
To revert root you'll need stock recovery(since you say you don't want a custom recovery, skip flashing the stock recovery) and untouched stock ROM...
you can either download a stock fresh stock ROM[recommended]
Or
You can revert all root changes you did to the ROM(Xposed, root,busybox, e.t.c.)
Cheers mate
thanx for replying..
Ok reverting will be enough? I thought stock rom is no more Pure after we root it either by stock recovery or custom recovery. And if i choose the reverting method, how much total apps will i have to delete/uninstall?

You'll will have to remove all root adjustments you made...if you can't remember them all, it's best to flash a new zip...but in my case it was only Xposed and root so I uninstalled Xposed within the app, then went to supersu to revert root.
Good luck

Thanx sir, Good Day
1. Try Paul O´Brien´s (that guy from Modaco) method. I rooted my Moto G with stock 4.4.4 like a month ago. No need to mess with the recovery, easy and simple.
2. There is an option in SuperSU that deletes all SU binaries from the phone. It is not needed to update though. You can update with SU installed, unless you modified any system files that the OTA wants to patch.
3. No, as mentioned in 2. Just unroot, uninstall xposed and you are done.
