OTA Update IMM30B 4.04
- Thread starter cshort0982
- Start date
That or its a chop.
I haven't had enough otas to know if they start changing around the way information is displayed, but I doubt it. Note top right, it just shows build, not the Android version. Sorry, its in my nature to automatically doubt ota screenshots that conveniently never update.

I'm with ya on that! I'm seeing if I can get the guy to pull the update file and post it. Anyone know how to do this??
It will be under /cache. I've never had a Nexus before now to know what it will be named, but it will be ~29mb.
adb pull /cache/filename.whatever.
Should save to his/her computer.

"i use andexplorer
i checked the cache folder and it was empty (screenshots attached). i ensured that hidden files are to be shown.
SD doesn't have a cache folder"
This is where we are at right now....

Tell him/her to use adb shell.
You cannot view cache from an explorer, unless its a root explorer.
adb shell ls /cache

No it doesn't. It has a virtual SD card.

Its a folder on the data partition. There is no sdcard.
cache is its own partition.

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??

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.
