Hello,
I have a Mate9 phone. Installed TWRP and rooted. Today I found that there is an update. System downloads the update and restarts into the recovery mode, but update not recognized, and I don't know the location. of the update to manually install. After rebooting phone downloads again the whole update.
How can I install this update?
Thanks in advance.

I did so. It went to stock recovery, later said "software failed to install. Reboot your phone" etc. Rebooted, now there is no update seeen, but my camera still has max 6x zoom.
Any thoughts?

This a known issue and is going to be fixed.
I recommend you to download the ota file manually from your browser and then flash it in Recovery.
I have a Oneplus One running on 5.0.1
A new OTA update is released. But when I install it, the phone reboots to TWRP. I tried flashing the update file there, failed. Why is this happening and what can I do about it?

Background: My phone is rooted and I have TWRP installed as my recovery.
Android 6.0 rolled out to my phone, and I really want to update it. However, everytime I try to install it, my phone boots into TWRP and does nothing. After booting into Android, my phone will boot into TWRP on its own again, and after repeating this for a while it will read something along the lines of, "There was a problem with the update" My question is this: how do I install the software update sent to my phone?

You can't flash the OTA with a custom recovery or root. You'll have to flash a stock recovery to get the OTA.

Search, or look around in the 2015 General Forum.
Today I got a notification to install an OTA update for pie (system enhancement), so I flashed stock recovery since I had TWRP installed (and ofc unlocked bootloader) and then downloaded the update, however when it reboots to recovery the update begins to install and stops at 25% percent with an error icon.
Any thoughts on this? I think is not that urgent since I already have Pie but it is most likely that this update is a security patch so I'm interested.
I have the same problem .
Did you solve it ?
Need stock recovery

Hello! As there isn't a forum for the Poco M5 yet, I'm posting it here. I received MIUI 14 via OTA, I downloaded it, it was installed and the phone asked to reboot. After it rebooted, I got a message saying that it was not possible to update and that I need to download and try again. I've tried 4 times (via OTA) and the same thing always happens, after rebooting it doesn't install the update. What can I do? Thanks for your help!

Yes, I know about that solution but I really want to understand why this is happening and I would prefer to update via OTA instead oof forcing the update via recovery

From what I found, MIUI 14 on Poco M5 is a major Android version-changing update, from Android 12 to 13. There is no OTA update found on the internet, only Recovery and Fastboot.
It would be either a bug of Xiaomi server that gives you an update announcement with OTA, or it had detected a wrong phone version and pushed a wrong device OTA that does not fit, so it won't flash. Or other reasons.
Try force stop the updater, clean the updater data and cache. Then check the update and see if it gives you a correct update.
This update file would be quite large, a few GB.
Recommend to do back of your data and apps, so in case anything happened, you might need factory reset or data wipe.
Since this is a major update, incompatibility is to be expected.
