Hello everyone.
Two hours ago I received the notification about the Android 5.0 update. I downloaded it and hit "Install". Then, "TeamWin" started, but not the update. I rebooted into System and tried to update again - but it tells me that 4.4.4 is the latest version I can get now. I'm on Build KTU84P now.
1) Do I need to remove TeamWin? If yes, with what?
2) How can I start the update again? I'm on a super slow connection and it would hurt to download the 500 MB again…
Thank you!

You need to remove TeamWin, and load up your stock recovery. I don't have the exact instructions for this unfortunately.
The OTA update will come back to your phone soon, usually. Did for me within the hour.
The issue I am having now, back with stock recovery, is during the install I am getting a dead Android error icon, and can't continue. Looking for any help I can, and hopefully it will help you too.

Maybe we need http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/stock-checker-zip-prepare-ota-t2927865?
Gosh, this used to be so easy all the time.
if you are using twrp, why the heck are you trying to install the ota? why not download(from xda) and flash a recovery flashable stock or aosp build, and make life much easier for yourself? heck, i dirty flashed from 444 to 5.0 via an aosp flashable zip without any issues, and kept all my data.

it wont flash over a rooted rom anymore as of lollipop. you can flash the factory img via fastboot though, in your bootloader.

Trying to remove the root right now via SuperSU. I am hopeful it will work better afterwards.
Edit: SuperSU unrooted it, rebooted, did OTA again, error again. Is there no way to find out what this error is?

The original update OTA can be obtained here: WWE_4.07.1700.4-3.62.1700.1_KTU84L.H4_release_377648
This cannot be flashed unless your device meets all requirements. Wait for a ROM otherwise.

What if you manually edit updater-script to not patch Youtube?
I could do that, but then I'll have the same issue on next OTA! I'd rather have a 100% clean update, if you know what I mean!

Mine fails as well - on basicDreams.apk. It doesn't look like it can be applied to every device, e.g. when integrating apps into the ROM using Titanium Backup it will most likely fail. Will be taken care of by the ROM devs though.

HAAANG ON!! hang on......
this....is a 4.xx.xxxx.x update

Don't think so, it's an OTA file that needs to be installed by the stock recovery, not a custom recovery.

All I had to do was RUU to 4.4.0 because that's the one I had handy, let the phone OTA to 4.4.2, and when it booted all I had to do was hit the "check for update" button 2-3 times and then it prompted me to download the OTA and voila, 4.4.3

You would have to put the OTA at the right location and name it exactly what the recovery expects and I don't know how to do that.
Thing is with stock recovery, there are no options, it either updates or resets to factory default.

Just wait a day or two.
I haven't really noticed a performance increase or decrease tbh after flashing the new firmware. It says "5.11.401.10" because I edited the android-info.txt file. But the date is 5/16/2014, to confirm that it is the newer v1.54 hboot. How would I go about making a deodex system dump into a flashable rom.zip? I have the system dump if someone can help me with the procedure.
I'm rooted and have S-off and have twrp for my recovery and the OTA downloaded to my phone and set it to update in a couple hours and im wondering if this is going to mess anything up if it updates? Im completely stock btw. If it is going to mess my root/s-off is there any way to stop it other than installing a rom?

I just got done flashing the new OTA. I kept S-Off and bootloader unlock. In order to do this, you will need to flash stock recovery.

Download 4.4.3 OTA in About > Software update > Check new

Boot into bootlader and flash TWRP 2.8
Root
Just make sure you're S-Off and bootloader unlocked before you take the new OTA.

You won't be able to flash the OTA with a custom recovery. You have to have un-modified stock ROM and stock recovery.

OTA hanging with stock recovery
I have reverted back to stock recovery (file downloaded from the link in this threat) but the OTA is still not working. After downloading, the update begins and I see the small icon of the phone with a green update symbol (two circular arrows). The green progress bar starts up, but then in a minute, it stops and the screen immediately jumps back to the stock recovery screen (phone icon with red triangle and exclamation point).
The process has run three times with the same result.
Can someone verify the md5sum of the stock_recovery.img file is d296a9a7289e10b2f04983e07409ee6c
Any ideas?

Not being on a completely unmodified stock HTC ROM is usually the case. Other than that this worked for me with no issues.

Same I was trying to tell you, you're welcome
I've had the OPO for over a year, and just now had the need to root it. An OTA happened to come in the next day, and the update process didn't work as I expected. So I'd like to know if I did something wrong, a random problem occurred, or this is the way it's supposed to work.
Until a couple days ago, the OPO was stock + all OTAs that had been released. I unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP recovery, and installed SuperSU. All that went as expected. When the OTA notification arrived the next day, I tried to install it with "Update Cyanogen recovery" still unchecked (because original reports with CM 11S said you could keep your custom recovery with an OTA).
When I tried to install the update, the phone just rebooted to TWRP and the update was not stored anywhere on /sdcard. I then checked "Update Cyanogen recovery" and tried to install the OTA again. It did not install, and TWRP was still my recovery. Several repeats of this had no different result.
Then I flashed the stock CM recovery with fastboot. After verifying I had the CM recovery, I installed the OTA again, and it failed again, reboting to recovery and doing nothing else. Then I downloaded the incremental update and tried to flash that via CM recovery, and that failed too. I checked the file /System/build.opt, and line "ro.build.version.incremental" said 49d90510ef, which meant I should have been able to install the cm-bacon-49d90510ef-to-d91bf047f5-signed.zip file. But it failed and said the current build number was not as expected. The number it gave me was not anything that made sense looking at the list of recent incremental updates.
So at that point I bailed out and installed via recovery the full flashable zip file, and that worked.
If this is what I have to do each time, it's certainly doable, but I don't think this is how it's supposed to go. I'm surprised the OTA didn't work with the custom recovery installed, and I'm even more surprised that the incremental installation failed. Maybe trying to install the OTA without updating the CM recovery messed things up, but that doesn't seem likely either. When the next OTA comes out, I'll see if any of these troubles are repeated. But I'd like to know how the OTA was supposed to work after installing a custom recovery.
I am still yet to figure this one out also, my friend I'm sure with time someone will respond who had better experience with this; just be patient
Have you been able to root yet? I can't seem to be able to on the new incremental yet.

Looks like I'm not the only one with this problem.

After installing the latest CM 12.1 ROM, I had to re-flash SuperSU. After doing that, root access is working fine. If you're having trouble rooting after installing the incremental, then my experience is perhaps not applIcable—since I was not able to do an incremental installation and had to re-flash the entire ROM.

I had to completely re-flash stock 3JL full also, but this time root doesn't work.

What happens when you try to root? Does it seem successful, but then you don't actually have root access? Or do you get some failure indication when you flash SuperSU? I've rooted a few phones in the last few years, but I'm far from an expert. Hopefully someone else will jump in with some idea of what went wrong. Shooting somewhat in the dark, I'd say look at the version of SuperSU and make sure it's the latest and the right one for the ROM, look at read-write permissions on your storage (if you can, you may need root access to check it properly). Of course wiping cache is always a good step, and if nothing else works, maybe factory reset, re-lock the bootloader, and then unlock and flash custom recovery again, and see if root can be successful then.
Once on custom recovery ( TWRP ) OTAs will NOT not install, unless you revert back to CM stock recovery. If you don't want to do that, wait for a signed flashable version to come out, which is normally 1-2 days after. Everytime you flash an update you will have to reinstall TWRP and SuperSU.

I figured that was the case when it failed. What seems anomalous in my case is that even after reverting to the stock recovery and verifying that it was installed, OTAs would not succeed. I didn't know about the "respect CM root settings " In SuperSU settings that you mentioned. Maybe that was the problem? Either that or the fact that I tried to install the OTA first with the custom recovery. Certainly the fact that the incremental installation reported I was at a different build number than what was listed in /System/build.opts indicates something was out of whack on my phone.
Temporarily reverting to the stock recovery and installing the OTA, then going back to custom recovery, seems a bit simpler than flashing the signed zip file and then re-installing recovery and SuperSU, but either way is not too bad. But being an engineer, I always have to find the optimum path and understand why things don't work the way I thought they should.

But being an engineer, I always have to find the optimum path and understand why things don't work the way I thought they should.

Not really since the signed zip file come with superSU, after the install it will ask you if you want to install superSU automatically, and TWRP will too when you start your TWRP app on your phone after reboot. But to each his own

Is your bootloader unlocked ? Reinstalled superSU ? Did you check with the fastboot command ? If you don't know how, look at Heisenberg's guide.

Yes, bootloader is unlocked and SuperSu was reinstalled :/
WARNING: THIS HAS BRICKED PHONES! It is suspected that having an encrypted phone causes these bricks, but that has not been confirmed. If your data partition is encrypted, it is extra important that you perform a factory reset before taking this OTA. Doing this will remove the encryption.
WARNING: INSTALLING THIS ON A LOCKED BOOTLOADER WILL ELIMINATE ALL CHANCE OF YOU EVER UNLOCKING YOUR BOOTLOADER.
If your bootloader is unlocked, it will not be re-locked after this update.
Do NOT flash this using TWRP. If you want to do that, use this version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo/development/rom-mcg24-251-5-100-stock-t3512949
So if you're a bad enough dude to flash this anyway, follow these instructions:
1. Backup all data on your phone. It will be lost.
2. If your bootloader is locked, make sure you are on SU4TL-49. If you aren't, take all available OTAs until you are.
3. If your bootloader is unlocked and you have TWRP installed, flash SU4TL-49 using this package: https://mega.nz/#!3xRhiaSR!KxH2Ya_BYK4zBjrxmej7dqaaDJVT1coTFJVJ5Fvb2WM
4. If you have TWRP installed on your phone, download the stock SU4TL-49 recovery here: https://mega.nz/#!L1AkQD4T!qoZIlLa-wuUBLMEi_gE574meiHd6Pehb34a-x3Gb-V8 and install it using the install image option in the install menu in TWRP. Reboot to recovery.
3. Perform a factory reset using the stock recovery menu. This will wipe all data and ensure that everything is formatted exactly as it should be.
4. Boot the phone normally and place the marshmallow update on the root of the directory that pops up when you plug in your phone.
5. Boot to recovery and at the stock recovery menu, select "apply update from sdcard."
6. Select the update and cross your fingers.

Are you sure that that file is the right one? It has the same version number as su4tl-49.

I'm positive. I seem to remember they did the same thing with SU4TL-49. The OTA was named after SU4TL-44 for some reason.
This is the stock recovery version, correct?

Correct. You install this using the sideload option in the stock recovery.

Thanks for the info and the download! You finally brought the wall down. I'm waiting for the twrp version myself
.
Thank you, now we can see what can be done with the new modem, kernel, etc...
Looking forward to a plethora of improvements to our phones

I'm testing the TWRP version now. It should be up shortly.
EDIT: I flashed it and it seems to work fine. Uploading now. Should be up in a few hours. I'll check on it after I go run some errands real quick.
Despite having software status report official, not modified, I too got a status 7 error. Downloading again.

This used to always be Motorola's naming scheme. New updates were named after the firmware version they replaced.
Sweet. I am going to wait till it is more stable. I do have a bad esn Turbo but I will need to unlock to bootloader to test.
Mirror for people having "quota exceeded" error at Mega
https://yadi.sk/d/AhmhE-yX32E84p
Rename to Blur_Version.24.81.5.quark_verizon.verizon.en.US.zip before use, throw in internal storage, and check for updates.
PS: I have 64Gb Employee Edition, and still had not receive update by air. What a shame, VZ! )

Error 7? Are you trying to flash this in TWRP? Because you can't do that with this package. You need the stock recovery. I'm uploading a TWRP-friendly version now, but the internet is being slow today.

Negative. Stock recovery on a system that reports "Official". I'm at a loss.

Strange. Try reflashing SU4TL-49. If my TWRP package doesn't do it for you, use the full firmware package and do it manually with fastboot.
Installed successfully on two devices.
...
kitcostantino, did you refresh system, kernel, modem and recovery by SU4TL-49? Are you sure you didn't mess with Turbo Maxx ROMs in the past? Foreign bootloader can cause even brick, not just error. See bootloader status at fastboot mode should be " locked, status 0"

lol. lawd, No. Ive been rocking status 3 for over a year.
As a tip, if anyone else with an unlocked bootloader runs into this,
what i had to do was restore my su-44 unmodified backup, OTA to SU-49, and then, after confirming my
q/e status was 0/1 i was able to update via the file in my Mega download folder. all is well now. they even added the newer version of command center. sweet. thank you all!!
It works in LOCKED BOOTLOADER??? .-.

Um, I couldn't tell you.i be been unlocked since the day Sunshine could unlocked our bootloader's. What I can tell you is you should absolutely unlock that via Sunshine before you even dream of applying this update. There will never be another opportunity.
Just my
.02. This is likely the last update for this phone, and your only chance of seeing N is via custom Roms.
TWRP version up now: http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo/development/rom-mcg24-251-5-100-stock-t3512949

Essential updated both radio and kernel this time.
P is just around the corner... Can't wait!!!

They do not provide info about this point, but in my experience with this build, multi touch bug is fixed. At least pinch zooming in Instagram is now stable.
Is it ok to sideload over custom kernel?
I couldn't complete the update. After download is completed I am getting error "installation problem couldn't update".
I tried 3 to 4 times I even tried restarting the phone even tried downloading from a different network but none of them helped.
I checked it in a Reddit thread that many others also facing the same error like mine.
Is anyone else facing the same issue like this

No issue here, but I'm not unlocked or rooted.
No issues installing on my bone stock unrooted device.

You can just flash full OTA zip via twrp.
No wipes needed.
If I have the bootloader unlocked and with root, can I install this update? Without losing my data or having to re-root the phone?

Download the full OTA zip from below.
https://storage.googleapis.com/essential-static/PH1-OTA-OPM1.180104.234.zip
Reboot in TWRP, flash the zip without wiping anything.
Once the zip flashing is complete, reboot to system.
Then you can root again.
PS - Do not forget to remove your secured lock screen (PIN, Password, Pattern etc.) before flashing TWRP.

Rooting will be similar to how you did before.
Is the battery getting better? My battery life got a lot worse since I installed the May update, literally could only last a few hours.
