OTA Update IMM30B 4.04
- Thread starter cshort0982

Shouldn't there be a link like (http://android.clients.google.com/packages/ota...) that people can refer to, or does that not apply to the LTE model?
@bfroehlich that is the norm. i'm waiting for that to flash. i have ddms open on my phone waiting for the update as well if no one posts it first.
I would prefer a link that is from a more official site. mediafire just doesn't work for me.
So what are those of us that updated to 4.0.3 radios supposed to do? Will the OTA not hit us now either? I'm assuming there's some checksum in place to make sure the 4.0.2 drivers are installed, but why would it check each individual thing? Why not just check main system version then overwrite the rest.
If I'm going to have to wait for modded 4.0.4 installs I'll be pissed...I like user-made stuff, but not when I have the option to use Google-made stuff.

Then you are currently **** out of luck.
If its any comfort, official signatures cannot be faked. Hence you go back to STOCK everything to be safe.
just flashed the 4.0.4 update using CWM after flashing the radio patcher from team BAMF mentioned earlier and I still have root and everything on my phone that was there before the update!!!
What radio were u coming from?
Right, but we have the .zip file name which is usually the only part we need to complete the URL.
If it were an OTA for the GSM version, it would have been .../google_maguro/....zip. I should have asked if there were any previous official OTA links for the LTE version. Then we would have an "official" link for the new OTA.

You will have to reflash 4.0.2 radios and bootloader temporarily using fastboot before applying the update (which updates them anyways).
Here's links to each one you will need:
Bootloader
Radio
Radio-CDMA
Issue the following commands:
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-toro-primekk15.img
fastboot flash radio radio-toro-i515.ek02.img
fastboot flash radio-cdma radio-cdma-toro-i515.ek05.img
After that just boot into recovery and try to update again.
If only someone would quote the links to the 4.0.2 radios right below this post...

Apologies for lack of understanding, but I have to flash the 4.0.2 bootloader *and* radios before installing this update? I'm fine doing it, but when I installed the 4.0.3 radios I literally just CWM'd 1 zip file and was done with it. Like an idiot I recently deleted the 4.0.2 radio file from my phone...guess I could have just flashed that back.
So just run those 3 using flashboot and then run the 4.0.2 OTA? Would it be the same as CWMing the 4.0.2 radios (if I can find them again)?
Is there a changelog fir this 4.0.4?
More important. Why there is no 4.0.4 here?

You probably used a zip files that just scripted those commands in. I'm not if it modified the bootloader for you or just the radios but to be on the safe side you should reflash all of them. Then just run the 4.0.4 update in CWM.
Oh....and obviously I'm assuming you are on 4.0.2 system partition? If not then you will have to reflash that as well.
Ya I'm running stock except the radios. I'll run the 3 and get back to you on the rest...just NAND backupped so gonna flash this stuff while I'm going to get food =P
So maybe I'm an idiot, but I just flashed the patcher and my baseband didn't change. We should be moving up to .10 correct?

Here's the deal:
1) Every OTA update changes the permissions on the su binary, so you effectively lose root access.
2) Every OTA update to date places 2 files on your ROM that are responsbile for re-flashing the stock recovery (which is what you are seeing, i.e., "the freakin exclamation point") on EVERY boot. As long as these two files exist on your ROM, your CWM recovery will disappear after a reboot.
What you need to do is re-boot you device into fastboot mode and flash CWM, then boot into CWM, delete those 2 files, then change permissions on the su binary, and you are all set.
Here's a step-by-step (which assumes you have the drivers for your device installed):
1) Download the attachment and extract it to a directory on your computer.
2) Download CWM, rename it to cwm.img and place it in the same directory.
3) Reboot your device into fastboot mode and plug it into your computer.
4) Open a command prompt in the same directory and do the following:
1) Flash CWM: fastboot flash recovery cwm.img
2) Boot CWM: fastboot boot cwm.img
3) Open a shell: adb shell
4) Mount the /system partition as r/w: mount -o remount,rw -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /system
5) Change permissions on su (you will need the right path. mine is in /system/bin): chmod 06755 /system/bin/su
6) Change permissions on Superuser.apk (not sure this is needed, but it wont' hurt): chmod 0644 /system/app/Superuser.apk
7) Remove the first file: rm /system/recovery-from-boot.p
8) Remove the second file: rm /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
9) Mount the /system partition as r/o: mount -o remount,ro -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /system
10) Exit shell: exit
11) Reboot: adb reboot
12) Done.
EDIT: I like posting the manual way of doing things, as people learn when they do them that way. But yes, as ATnTdude said, once you boot CWM, you can just flash the su zip file, and it automatically does steps 4,5,6 and 9 for you. You still have to remove the two files yourself.2Anyone know anything about this??
