Sorry for the newbie question.
I'm on YOG7DAS2K1, rooted, with TWRP recovery. I want to upgrade to the newest COS13 without doing a data wipe.
OTA does not work, obviously.
Tried cm-bacon-cee4e8702d-to-64003595ee-signed.zip (From this page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/official-cm11s-roms-ota-updates-t2906746, listed as the YOG7DAS2K1 -> ZNH0EAS2JK OTA update. It flashed fine, but I was missing google play services and couldn't figure out where to get the correct file (tried several, they all didn't work).
So went back to YOG7DAS2K1 and I flashed the stock recovery through fastboot and tried to apply the OTA update through system-> about phone. No go.
I unrooted the phone and tried again. No go.
Now I'm back on YOG7DAS2K1 and trying to figure out how to get this done.
Anyone?
Thanks in advance.
No one replied on this thread, but I ended up following this track: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/how-upgraded-to-cm-cos-13-loosing-data-t3370965

So I have been trying to figure out a solution to my issue but I figured that I would bring it together in a single post.
I have a 2.20 HOX with TWRP installed. I am rooted. I am wanting to install the 4.1 OTA update but whenever it goes to reboot into recovery it goes into TWRP and does nothing.
Now, I have found directions from people installing the OTA with TWRP installed but I am not wanting to do a complete wipe. I am wanting to only upgrade and keep what I have on my phone.
My question is simple:
Is there any way that I can do that with having TWRP installed or is my only option to do a clean install?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks will be given!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But in a noobie's honest opinion, its not worth the effort for the OTA , there are better custom roms in the forums here for the HOX than what you get from the update.
I tried all day yesterday then a dev helped me with the answer, you can't OTA update with TWRP installed
use this post in the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2181849&page=2
Redpoint73 gave me the right answer to get it done
"""It should be like this:
1) RUU to stock 2.20
2) Download and install OTA
3) Unlock bootloader
4) Install TWRP
5) For root: using TWRP, flash SuperSU
Steps 2 and 3 might be interchangeable""".
Hi Everybody,
I have successfully updated to 4.4.1 on my Nexus 5 (unlocked bootlader, rooted, stock and Xposed). Here are the steps:
Before update I was on stock, rooted, xposed.
Flashed update.zip after unintsalling xposed. Lost recovery so adb pushed then flashed SuperSU, wiped delvik cache. All seems ok now except:
"Unfortunately google play has stopped working" tried everything (except factory reset)....
any advise will be greatly appreciated
PS: I posted this on OTA Help Desk too, but doing this here too.
Thanks again guys.
Edit: Keeping this in case any one has the same issue
Fix: Flash back to stock (if you dont want to lose data then only flash boot and system). Then use the Nexus 5 OTA helpdesk Scenario #2 (flash ota.zip and supersu) to gain 4.4.1. All working great now.
Woohoo
Hey Guys,
My N5 is currently running android 5.1 and I want to upgrade to 5.1.1. My phone also shows that the OTA update is available but I am currently rooted and running TWRP. A quick google research showed me that I can´t install an OTA update while being on TWRP. Is there any other way to update my phone to 5.1.1 without losing my data?

I have this exact same question. I was going to try and use fastboot with the system image and recovery and then take the ota update. Not sure if that will work.
I got impatient, so i downloaded the factory image from the web for the version of my phone (lmy47d). I extracted the system.img and recovery.img and flashed them with fastboot as stated here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...orial-applying-ota-update-stock-root-t2976556
Rebooted the phone and then applied the OTA update. Phone is updating the apps after boot. So far seems ok.
Thank you I will try it out later
You don't lose data by default? At least not for me
**Resolved** I managed to resolve this by re-enabling all apps I'd disabled using the normal android option in settings (just google newsstand etc.), It wouldn't update from an OTA or a full package of a later version but it would accept an update from YNG1TAS2I3 that it was already on, it updated over the top of itself and after that OTA's seem to be working, there's a lot to do though.

Hi, I'm trying to update a family members phone from YNG1TAS2I3. The phone is completely stock, it's never been modified or rooted at all. It only runs apps from Google Play and it was updated to this version by OTA.
Recovery gives the following error when installing the update:
/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system has been remounted r/w; reflash drvice to reenable ota updates
Any ideas? I really really don't want to have to factory reset it, root it or put a custom recovery on it? Can I force flash it over the top to marshmallow without unlocking the bootloader or anything? I've also tried flashing the full rom from stock recovery but that doesn't seem to work either.
Thanks,
Hello all.
I think it's all in the title. I am on L29C432B560, with root and TWRP installed.
Recently, I got the OTA notification for B581. But when I tried it, the system dowloaded the package, then rebooted to recovery. Except my recovery is TWRP, and won't auto-install the package.
Could I just use fastboot to re-flash stock recovery, OTA update, and maybe re-root with magisk ?
If yes, where to download the stock recovery for nougat ? I've been searching for 2 hours, but it seems my google-fu isn't strong enough :/
Alternatively, any suggestion is welcome as to the best way to go from rooted b560 with TWRP to b581 ...
Thanks in advance for your help !
Aaaaaand I just found it.
There seems to be something magical with me, where I look for something for 2 hours, then decide to ask for help, and figure out the solution 5 minutes later.
I just needed to use HuaweiUpdateExtractor to get the recovery.img file from a full b 560 update. After that I flashed it with fastboot, and the OTA .... well, the OTA failed. But it got through to standard recovery and started.

Here the stock recovery of your firmware.
