Ok so, through previous tinkerings I had flashed one of the updates and gained the new radio and kernel then flashed liberty and was on that for awhile.
I now tried reverting back to stock using the released method and then upgrading 1 by 1 as the op says but the first update fails every time. Is it because I already have the new radio and kernel? Would really like to get to .7 trying to figure out if it's possible.

Yes, get to stock
Step 1. Do 1
Step 2. Do 2
Step 3. Do 3
And so on.......
Yep...that's in the op...

you don't even know what i was asking do you? the post above me was indicating that there was one file!!!! I have already upgraded to 5.7.893.. the problem i'm waiting for is for a fix for the webtop..so i must know what the op is saying.... wow....dude
Not sure who you're replying to but does stock mean just the 886 system or do you need to have the stock radio and kernel? I have the new kernel radio and borked webtop from previously flashing 5.6.993
So essentially I have on 886 w/ the new radio and kernel and the first update won't work.
just system...i started on 5.893 and went in sequence...so maybe if you start with #2 it will take...then go to the next...
Been having the same issue. Had 5.5(6) 893 and got the new radio/kernel. Everytime I tried the 2.1 restore then the updates/root/ it fails immediately too.
yep yep, my bad....seen a bunch post that are asking how to or where to get, when its plainly in the op...
There is plenty of opportunity to be confused here and nobody has a right to cop an attitude.
BUT, likewise, none of us should be doing any of this stuff to $600 phones and if you want to play in the deep end you better know how to swim!

yep, and there is no way (as of right now or that i've seen) to go back (if your on 6.893) to 5.893 so you can flash the full 7.893...if that makes any sense...
I hope im wrong, because id really like to get webtop back...
ok..but isn't your webtop gone? in the op it says there is an issue. i have lost mine.. i have messed with my phone most of the day trying to get it fixed cause i use my wetop daily. i don't understand why directions (help to flash the files) are still being given out.. i feel like i am in the twighlight zone..lol

24You MUST be completely stock on 5.5.886, if you're not go here to do so: R3L3AS3DRoot and 43V3R root for the BIONIC v2
After that apply the FOR3V3R root and proceed with the following:
Flash stock recovery of full Blur_Version.5.5.886-5.7.893.XT875.Verizon.en.US
how to get into stock recovery, some people were having issues or trying to flash via cwm
Now for the WEBTOP flash this via CWM
[MOD] Webtop Via HDMI Without a Dock
You will now be on the latest update and have root and webtop
BTW, seems the MR1 update was the culprit, webtop was working with all other updates
EDIT: Seems webtop is broken in the last 2 updates, trying to find a way to fix it or if we can narrow down what's breaking it.
EDIT: Will post the full 5.7.893 when I get home4I was on Th3ory 2.1 and had previously completed the forever root and upgrade to 5.5.893 (system/radio/kernel). Therefore I couldn't do the simple instructions in the OP to get to 5.7.893.
What I did (successfully) was (and booting between each step):
1. Used the R3L3AS3DRoot and 43V3R Root for the BIONIC method to go back to 5.5.886 with forever root.
2. Used a file provided by p3droid to get my system to 5.5.893. Note that this file must be flashed via CWR and not stock recovery.
3. Flashed step #2 in the outdated instructions.
4. Flashed step #3 in the outdated instructions.
5. Completed the R3L3AS3DRoot and 43V3R Root for the BIONIC AGAIN to go back to the .886 system.
6. Flashed the full update to 5.7.893 in the OP.
At this point you should be on 5.7.893 system and radio/kernel. You can flash the webtop hack in the OP if you want. And you can flash any custom ROM that you want (although unless that ROM was bulit using 5.7.893 you will be on an older system, although with the 5.7.893 radio/kernel).
Hope this helps.2Thats the exact steps I followed originaly to get on .7.893 and I have repeated those exact steps after going to [Rom]Shift3r. The errors I provided above are the responses to my second attempt...so yep did that.
After you have been on .7.893 and go to something else and want to get back to .7 you can just restore your backup of .7 if you made one. If not you will have to restore your system back to .886 and then flash the full update from .886 to .7.893. If that doen't work you might have to fast boot the webtop to the .886 webtop.2
Download all the updates I posted to upgrade or it will fail...I mean you could try without updating the other files first, but won't work
