4.4.2 wtf

[sparhawk6]

I just got the notice.

After downloading the update file, I tried to flash in TWRP (similar to how I installed 4.4.1) - but it failed. (I'm stock, rooted, no mods)

Saw a couple of error messages in TWRP
Error executing updater binary in zip .....
Package expects build fingerprint of Google ....

Any suggestions on how to fix?

Edit: Never mind - redownloaded, and it worked ok

Updated to 4.4.2!! Sound is a bit higher!

Baseband XXXXXXX-25.0.23 ... -------- Kernel 3.4.0-gadb2201

Camera is a bit faster from 4.4.1 i guess :victory::victory:

 

[skippa]

still nothing for me, not even had 4.4.1

Summary:

This update improves the Nexus 5 camera with faster shooting (less shutter lag, less motion blur); faster, more accurate focusing; better white balancing for truer colors; and more accurate exposures. The update also includes other bug fixes and performance improvements.

I created a topic earlier when I found Sprint updated their site today. They removed the KOT49E listing and replaced it with KRT49H and listed a release date of today (I think that was a typo now because there is a post in their forums from a employee announcing an update to KOT49H). So apparently Sprint knew about the update earlier today.

Weird, because I lost root, but I did not lose custom recovery.

I have all stock except recovery, I have CWM. When I finished updating and want to reboot, I selected the option to keep SU and worked fine. The same happened with de 4.4.1 update. Only flashed again recovery

Currently running 4.4, rooted, and uninstalled Xposed. Tried to install the 4.4.2 update and got an error about a build.prop change. Changed that, but now I can't get the trigger to restart and install the update. The file is in my cache folder.

How can I trigger it to install again?

For some reason TWRP didn't offer me that option, even though it usually does. Now I have to scramble and find the supersu zip, as I was relying on TWRP for that feature up to this point. Not that big of a deal though I guess.

No update in Cambridge UK yet,not even 4.4.1!

Just install it from the recovery

Nice, so more tweaks to the camera it looks like. It almost seems like Google is taking the camera experience seriously, which is a major surprise.

Is there an updated boot loader and modem as well?

Please let it be an improvement to the radio.

That would be the biggest upgrade I desire right now, after 4.4.1 made the reception considerably worse..

But does seem to be the same. 23 radio

Sure great news.

Next step : change UI

So baseband and radio are about the same as 4.4.1?

Goes without saying, but there's no new radio in the update zip.

Hahaha, lets not go nuts. That might give me a heart attack.

But seriously Google, please murder your camera app and come up with something better.
