how to update directly? - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How do i update the oneplus one directly from 25R to 38R or 44S? Is this possible? By recovery like TWRP? I'm currently running 25R. When i check for updates....no new updates seem to come.

If you want to use OTA updates you must take them in sequence (25R>30O>33R>38R>44S). You can take somewhat of a shortcut though. Clean flash the full 38R ROM zip from here:

Then you can just apply the 44S update.

What timmaaa said works. Another option is to flash, http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/rom-stock-rooted-4-4-4-xnph44s-t2932551
It is OTA safe as indicated in the OP post and will give you XNPH44S as well as root (SuperSU)

One question from me. If he takes the factory image from zephiK, does this mean he wipes his data also?
Or is this only when flashing via adb?

What zephik posted isn't a factory image, that's Calkulin's stock rooted 44S ROM. No, user data is not wiped when flashing that.

So..... I have to flash via Twrp?

That is correct. The general idea is,
If you're coming from a ROM other than the ROM you're currently using: Wipe.
If you're coming from the same ROM but upgrading to a new version: No wipe, just flash the new zip. The only exception to this is if the OP says a wipe is required.

Thank you very much for your help.

You don't need root to flash a ROM, try with TWRP instead.

Cannot update to 30O

I have been holding off from updating to 30O since it came out because of battery issues, however now that 33R is rolling out im trying to install 30O in preparation but am unable to do so. Whenever I hit the "Download Update" button through settings nothing happens, I have tried restarts and cache wipes with no luck. Everything on the phone is still stock.
Any suggestions?
Do you have the update via recovery button checked in dev settings? Also you don't need to download 30O, just go straight to 33R.

I don't think that's possible; the OTAs are incremental.

Well yes; if you uncheck the update via recovery you can't ota, and you have to have stock recovery installed as well.

This is also not true. The "Update CM recovery" option in developer options just keeps updates from overwriting your custom recovery back to the stock recovery. You can update via OTA with a custom recovery; I did it with TWRP.

Well yea. Sorry if my wording was a bit convoluted; but I just see it being a waste of time to overwrite the custom recovery. But also from my experience OTA just goes with stock recovery, so thank you for your input.

You can download the OTA updates from somewhere like Android Police and flash them manually.

An OTA can be flashed by stock recovery or TWRP on this device.

I'm not sure if you read my post wrong or not, but I said you can manually flash updates while stock. If you did read it correctly and are just complaining that I didn't give a detailed answer with instructions, I wasn't exactly sure of the process, so I left that to someone else.

I ended up just flashing manually using files from android police and stock recovery, however the download update button still didnt work even when i was trying to go to 33R. If I get some time ill get around to factory resetting and trying again because as far as i can tell there is no reason for it not to work.
You could always sideload a OTA if you have the zipfile.
Code:
adb reboot recovery
in recovery choose "ADB Sideload"
Code:
adb sideload update.zip

[Q] Some few noob questions about root+ota :D

Hi there, I just got my phone and rooted it. Actually I am with 38R and I was wondering if I can update my CM via OTA as a rooted user.
Or do I need to flash something to get it updated?
And another thing, will I lose my data if I update flashing?
I rly looked at the FAQ but I didn't find something specific as that.
Thank you
You don't need to do anything special to update, just update as you normally would. You'll lose root though so you'll need to flash SuperSU after the update.
What do you mean by the second question? Please be more specific.

Ah ok so after updating via OTA i just need to flash SU from TWRP right?
The second question is about some posts that I read about some ppl downloading zip files to update to 44S in fastboot, but if I can just update using OTA its fine.
Thank you

Yep, take the OTA, then boot into TWRP and flash SuperSU. And yep, you shouldn't need to worry about using the fastboot images.

It should install the OTA without unlocking the bootloader, but if that's failing then unlocking the bootloader is the best option. Why don't you want to? There's no benefit to keeping it locked, and no detriment to unlocking it.

Well...I just bought it yesterday... and I don't know if this is offical device or fake device...because the backside of the device...don't have the cyaanogen mod based logo....and it has some Chinese word behind the phone cover...so I'm not sure that is this a regular one plus one device or a china fake one plus one.

The Chinese OnePlus One isn't a fake, it's just the Chinese model.
Transmitted via Bacon
so its all the same? root ,bootloader and all those hardware.
the only different thing are those word are write In Chinese?
The Chinese version is missing one LTE band, but that's the only hardware difference.
So..if I flash custom ROM or kernel...will it bootloop ? Cause of different hardware from the other one.
and can yoh tell me the use of bootloader? If unlocked in this device... and is it safe for me to flash custom stuff in this china 's OPO?

They're identical in hardware, apart from the one missing LTE band. They're completely compatible with each other, so you can flash anything as long as it's for the OnePlus One.

Bro...first of all I wan to thank you for the friendly And helpful reply and so the hardware are same...just the LTE bandwidth are different right? so I can flash everything as long as it is compatible with OPO.

That's right, and yes you'll still receive OTA updates with an unlocked bootloader, even with a custom recovery installed. Here's a few threads you might find useful:

Yes, as long as you're currently on the build that directly precedes the one that you're going to flash. They need to be flashed in order. For example, to go from 33R to 05Q it must be done in this order
33R > 38R > 44S > 05Q
You can't do this:
33R > 05Q

For me, I will do this. Wipe /system and /cache and Dalvik/ART partition, then flash Calkulin's stock rooted ROM. Then you are on the latest ROM.

Sounds like you have a corrupt data partition. Is your bootloader unlocked?

Yeah that was what I meant. Unfortunately I think you're going to need to wipe though because just installing the update doesn't fix the problem (corrupt data partition). I think you'll need to fully wipe your phone and start fresh. First you should copy any important photos, music, etc from your phone to your PC. Just connect your phone to your PC while you're in TWRP and you should be able to copy your media from the phone using Windows. Once you've done that, go to my guide thread and follow the instructions in section 8 to flash the stock images.
