First make ur device s-off and change cid to supercid (11111111). Then install a custom recovery (do not root it device, leave it unrooted). Restore it device with an nandroid backup (wwe stock deoxed is somewhere here). Boot and u should get a update notification for android 4.3. Download but don't install it. Open the ota and grab the recovery. Flash it via fastboot and boot device again. Now check for updates and let the device install it. Here u go :) fresh and complete stock android 4.3 :) that's how it works for me. Bootloader was unlocked while I did this. And u will get future updates too :)

P.s.: I rooted it after the update and I also can confirm that sense toolbox of adhr Rom is working fine too :)

thank you for the explanation! just to confirm; it works with Deodex too? I thought only Odex would work...

Someone from Germany here with unbranded mini and also still waiting for the OTA?

I saw one guy in this thread that got the OTA, so I'm a bit confused :(



how to install a custom recovery? haven't done this stuff in a while.

go to fastboot (long press vol-down at powering on the phone)
connect your phone to PC
have ADB installed and working (!!!)

open a command prompt window on your PC and change to your ADB-folder

type
fastboot flash recovery path/to/recovery.img

I'm very interested to know how you managed to do all of this with S-OFF and bootloader UNLOCKED? I haven't seen anyone able to avoid the bootloop issue with the bootloader unlocked...... How did you S-OFF without root?
Thanks.

Yea i upload it later when i arrived Home :)

I will also make a Full guide how i did it

For s-off u will have to flash a rooted Rom with a custom kernel. I used revone for s-off. After that u can restore the system with a stock backup to receive OTAs.

Yeah with s-off u don't need a relocked bootloader to flash or restore stuff :)

Did u received the ota? Extract the recovery.img and flash it. Then just let it install and it should work. U need unrooted Rom and stock recovery :)

Install an app wich need root like es explorer and navigate to the root directory. If u can access it then u have root. And inside the OTA u have a firmware.zip, open it with winrar and and u will find the recovery.img
