I am looking for a small OTA file. The link you provided is full OTA

Unexpected. Hope it fixes the System UI memory leakage.
Flash Ota.zip from customUpdater.apk in Nexus 5 android 6 custom AOSP ROM
Scenario
-> custom aosp rom
-> stock kernel
-> without any google app (so no SystemUpdateServiceImpl service) I mean no system updater service
-> Have my own otaupdater.apk as system app
What I achieve:
-> Can download custom ota.zip from direct link using custom otaupdater.apk
-> In rooted device can reboot into recovery mode which take me to twrp recovery
What I failed to do:
-> can not write openrecoveryscript into system/cache/recovery/ directory
-> So no auto flash is happening
What I tried:
-> tried to set allow directory creation and file creation permission from within sepolicy/system_app.te
BUT FAILED
HELP NEEDED ...

You are trying to run the OTA over a custom ROM? Won't work.
Best thing you can do now is flash the latest image with fastboot. You'll have a fresh clean install then.
I'm not sure what you mean by custom ota image, but to get to the latest stock version, you need to flash it clean, in your situation. Ota updates need a stock device to work.
You need scenario 6 from OP.
As far as I remember. Haven't had my N5 for a long time.
So how do I provide otaupdate for my custom rom users with the option to get a auto flash after hitting the install Update button from updater.apk ?You are trying to run the OTA over a custom ROM? Won't work.

Ah, it's an ota process for a custom ROM. Yes?
I'm sorry, but I don't know about that. I thought you were trying to install a stock ota file over a custom ROM.
That's what this thread is about, stock ota updates. I'd suggest you look around for a better place to ask, or open a thread in Q&A about it.
You could look for a thread with help on that in Chef Central too, or find an appropriate thread to ask in. :good:

Good luck!
I'm rooted with TWRP and have LYZ28J, i want to start updating but can't find a zip to update from my version?
Thanks for any help.
Thanks for any help.
The Nexus 5 is long out of warranty. You'll have to install a new ROM if you want to keep up to date. I am very happy with Pure Nexus, which is still being updated regularly with the newest Nougat builds. You'll have to do a completely clean wipe of everything on your device before you can install a new ROM.

Hi guys,
I have a question about this fantastic phone, I hope it isn't going to die...
Sometimes when I reboot it the battery drops, I'm meaning that after reboot the battery is nearly void, it happened with two different ROMs so it is hardware related,
Have I to change the battery?
Thanks in advance and sorry for bad English
