Jelly Bean 4.2.1 OTA
- Thread starter patboole
- Start date
Where does the device need to be when running the adb shell command? I flashed a custom recovery and then unmounted the system. Do I stay in recovery and use the adb shell command or reboot into fastboot?
I know you were against that but in earlier posts, you found and corrected errors. IIRC, after that you updated by OTA. Now, by your post, you've found errors again??
The first time I did the error check I only checked system. This time I checked userdata and cache (which was clean). I believe there is still one more partition to check.

I ran the commands from within recovery.
Didn't work for me. I had the same problems you did when trying to run the "-p" script. It couldn't fix the errors. Ended up having to use the new system image to do a "flashall" script from the ADB location. Sucks to have to set up the tablet again but it took the OTA no problem so alls well that ends well.

-p: Automatically repair ("preen") the file system without any questions.
-y: Assume an answer of `yes' to all questions; allows e2fsck to be used non-interactively.
A "-p" from what it describes should fix problems without a y/n input but doesn't seem to work that way.

Partitions are:
/boot
/system
/recovery
/data or sometimes called userdata
/cache
/misc
I think the only ones you can test are the partitions that get returned when you run adb shell mount | grep ext4. I don't have grep so I can't run this. On another note, userdata had corruption in it again. There must be an app that causes this.
took out the recovery stuff, this worked for me in twrp: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/26643655/Android/update-manta-4.2.1-renzyyy.zip

Worked on my nexus 10 unlocked and rooted. Just had to recover my root using voodoo!
Thanks
Out of the box my N10 didn't see the update. After flashing the factory image it picked it up right away.

6Solution for OTA 4.2.1 for broken 4.2
To anybody who has problem with OTA 4.2.1 after reflashing stock factory image 4.2, read this -
https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en&fromgroups=#!topic/android-building/s-qNo2fxeHY
Briefly - Nexus 10 factory image 4.2 was broken in EXT4 interpreter. Google issued today a NEW 4.2 factory image and you should reflash it first and proceed with OTA 4.2.1 after that in normal way (Jean-Baptiste Queru message).
Unfortunately, it is not indicated in Google's factory images webpage itself.
I just did that and it works fine now.5took out the recovery stuff, this worked for me in twrp: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/26643655/Android/update-manta-4.2.1-renzyyy.zip

1. Fixed NumberPicker widget (December bug)
2. Add notification vibrate pattern & fallback pattern (allow apps to overwrite pattern using VIBRATE permission)
3. Updates to bluedroid bluetooth stack for bluetooth HID devices like gamepads2Could you please consider my request above since you are online and haven't flashed yet? I thanks

You can edit the updater-script found in the .zip and remove the assert lines that reference those two files. Save, copy it back to your tablet, and it should flash ok. That's what I did since I flashed the aosp browser.
Attached is the file I edited and flashed, it should work if you have flashed the AOSP browser. Original file posted by renzyyy, be sure to thank him. I just edited out the asserts for the BrowserProviderProxy files in the updater-script. Flashed fine for me in TWRP. This update will remove root, easiest to back it up using Voodoo OTA Root Keeper.
