Unable to install 5.0 on rooted N5

Hi guys ,
I have a rooted nexus 5 running on original stock rom with clockwork recovery installed. I have been getting pop ups to download Andriod 5.0 for last 10 days , Every time I download it , it takes me to recovery and than gives me a message "unable to open the package etc." and cancels the install.
I have tried clearing up the cache , did factory reset , same result everytime.
Any suggestions what can i do ?

You need to be 100% stock (including recovery) to accept the OTA. Restore your phone to full stock and try again.

How do I do that ?
This is wifey's phone , if she looses her data 1 more time than I m dead.

Flash the newest factory image in fastboot, just dont flash the userdata image.

So If I just download 5.0.1 (LRX22C) from https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images and flash it via Fastboot , It will take phone back to Factory state and root will be lost ?

Ya root will be lost. Just unzip that image fully. Then flash everything but userdata individually. She wont lose her data or setup. Then fastboot flash twrp. Boot into twrp and install supersu. Good to go.

Ya itll be on there. Also you dont need to flash the bootloader either, being that its the same as the 5.0 one.

If its on 4.4 you should do a clean install as its a big upgrade. To save her data, flash the 4.4 recovery, and boot images. That should bring you back to stock so you can just take the ota.
Thatll work as long as you haven't made any further modifications.

Lol. I thought he was already on 5.0. Glad i caught him in time. I know how pissed my wife gets when I mod or flash stuff to her phone and she doesn't like the outcome, or the version is buggy, or she has to re setup her stuff. Glad I can help other avoid that

OK. So download 4.4.4 and unzip and flash only recovery and boot images via fastboot ( boot images would be files ending with .img , i.e. more than 1 file ?

Flash "boot.img" its only one file. Then flash "recovery. img" also one file. So two files total.

[Q] Back to stock recovery B137SP03 without recovery image

Hello all,
I have been going slightly mad today trying to get my mate 7 2GB back from CWM to stock recovery. The main problem is that I do not have a stock recovery image. But after being shown where to find one, I noticed that I could not get it successfully flashed either.
Since I do not really know how to do this, I used flashify, but that did not work and either returned me to the CWM or sent me to rescue.
Can someone help me to a) get a stock recovery image for the Mate 7 version MT7-L09 and b) show me how to properly flash it?

Find stock recovery is easy.. only a question why flashify don't work for you? It work fine for me... your device is rooted?

Hi @dzjero86, my device is rooted and I am on the B137SP03 version atm, using CWM. Don't know why Flashify is not working for flashing a recovery image. It works fine to flash a CWM recovery. Maybe I have the wrong stock recovery... If you can find it, can you send me the link or add it as an attachment here?

Please guys help me to . i have that same problem i have been trying to flash the stock recovery again but i couldn't even with flashify after i flash i takes me to bootloader screen and it shows me a fun_error message
I have a tl-10 device

A way to find the stock recovery is : download the whole B137SP03 Rom from the Huawei site , and use a tool called "Firmware unpacker for Huawei" whit this tool you can extract the recovery.img from the Rom and try to flash it using flashify

Do you tried flash via fastboot ?
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Or try to use this tool
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mat...custom-recovery-tool-mt7-l10-l10-mt7-t3022424
This should work.

The fast boot just stucks at waiting for device
And the tool you send says that the stock recovery works only on tl_09 and my device is tl_10

Ok, I couldnt access your firmware unpacker, but I did manage to use the tool you suggested.
I have a different recovery screen, but is this the right one? It has EMUI large in centre screen and the options reboot system now, wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition.
If this is the correct one, and I am already on the D137SP03 ROM, I should be able to locally update right?
I tried this, and got a lot further this time, but my phone gave an error message during the update. Do I need to flash the original B137SP03 rom again, even though I am already on it?

I think you maybe can flash using adb commands and also you need adb drivers working

That's right... you have stock recovery... sometimes the update fail if the UPDATE.APP is on the internal storage.. try to flash from a micro sd card or re-download the update ....

No luck so far.... I've downloaded the update.zip, put it in my mnt/ext_sdcard/dload folder and start the local update. It begins OK, as the progress bar moves along. But after about 25% it shoots to the end, and then I get an update failed screen with a red exclamation mark.
What could I try to get it to work??

Ok, I just reinstalled the B137P03 version from the how to install lollipop thread, and that went successful. Now going to try the update.zip! Keep you posted

Ah, now we're talking It seems to have worked. Phone is now showing 'Android is upgrading' and 'optimising app.....'
Great! It does seem strange I had to reinstall the B137SP03 rom, but that did the trick!

I can in a bit. Making dinner
I'll just make a flashable zip that will do everything.
And its not much. You'll just have to place update files on external sdcard (I hope you have one ) in sdcard:/hwota/.
And rename them update.zip, update_all_hw.zip and update_data_public.zip. Just like the hwota method except you get no bat file.

make a new folder on your external SDcard named HWOTA (/external_sdcard/HWOTA/)
Place those 3 files there. Then extract the zip above to that folder. All files should be in /external_sdcard/HWOTA/, no sub-folders.
Flash /external_sdcard/HWOTA/HWOTA.zip. Device should reboot and install your firmware.

probably no problem... You'd use the same files when installing Oreo.
I would probably install Nougat first though and enable OEM unlocking. But that's me.

Which twrp are you using?
Did you try the 0.7 by Pretoriano80 in Mate 10 dev section?
Though you would need to hit the toggle.
I guess you could flash a stock rom using HWOTA8 and select Lock in the repack script. If you have rebranded using FunkyHuawei you won't be able to unlock though as it changes your imei in Fastboot, and your old unlock code becomes invalid.

It rebootq only to a green TWRP!

That noverity.zip disables a mechanism in the boot partition that verify the boot itself and the system partition, when you install twrp a little bit of the boot partition is altered and so the boot is blocked.
Install the zip using twrp. You can take a look at this (https://www.getdroidtips.com/twrp-recovery-ulefone-s8-pro/), but if I remember well, that s8 pro toolkit app is the one that asks you to install the zip

That noverity.zip disables a mechanism in the boot partition that verify the boot itself and the system partition, when you install twrp a little bit of the boot partition is altered and so the boot is blocked.

which firmware version are installed on your phone? Have you tried flashing the official ROM from the ulefone site, then retried the process?

Have tried on both v3. 01 & v3. 03 firmwares. Stock firmware wasn't downloaded directly from ulefone site, imagine it will be the same but will give it a go.

Unlock the bootloader using Mi unlock tool. Flash Peter's TWRP using fastboot command. Reboot to recovery. Flash Magisk. Reboot. You should be rooted.

unlocking bootloader is necessary and during unlocking the bootloader your phone must be formatted and your data will lost you and internal too.
so you have to backup all your data and music and whatever you are keeping.
Ater unlocking you have to flash PTWRP from the fastboot command and imultaneously boot to TWRP then flash magisk and done your phone is now rooted.
Your data will be lost.

If you will not flash magisk then it will get removed.
As i have faced one time.

Just internal data is removed, not SD's right!?

In these cases what i do is i flash the Stock recovery.img whenever i need to install the update.
Lets say i have installed miui with fastboot, then i install twrp and flash magisk and then install stock recovery.
