Well done ! Getting there

This is what I get.
Edit updater-script again and remove " nv_copy_blob_file("blob", "/staging"); "
Then it should work
You will loose root and recovery, easy to replace :)

As cwm can not do nv, unless the script is changed.

Thanks Pacattack
Will try it tommorrow as the battery is nearly flat.
Better to charge it first I think.
Cheers,

Tomsgt new tool 1.2 works great :) (if don't mind loosing all your data)

If your bootloader is lock use option 1 first then

1. use option 2 (install 4.3 update)
2. reboot and do a setup.
3. use option 3 (cwm recovery)
4. use option 5 (Full root)

at option 2 you can restore the device and when it ask you are asked to wipe just close the tool and reboot manually and you will keep you data.

:laugh: I was only quoting you :laugh:

1. It is recommened to wipe data, especially if you were on a custom rom.
2. If you don't you will probably bootloop and have to wipe anyway...
3. Press any key to Wipe the tablet's data (EXCLUDING EXTERNAL SDCARD)
or exit the utility and manually reboot the device

and why does option 2, don't go to fastboot, like the rest of the options :laugh:

Great Job :)

I want people to know how the enter fastboot bootloader menu. If you really bricked your device that is what you would have to do.

Thanks.

Firstly a big thanks to Pacattack and Tomsgt for all the help they have given me over our problem with installing the latest ota.
Much appreciated by a complete novice to fastboot, updater scripts etc.
I have finally successfully installed the ota using Tomsgts tool.
Had a couple of worrying moments when it all seemed to freeze but made it in the end.
Thanks once again.
Cheers,
drc.

The boot animation is the same as it came with.
Starts of with tetra note then goes into advent Vega powered by etc.
The only strange thing I noticed was that when I first tried to boot into cwm it said "no command"
Then just sat on that screen.
After I restarted and got back into cwm using toms tool I did a system backup and now if I boot into cwm the correct screen appears.
Maybe me or this version of cwm but never noticed that before on any of my other devices.
Cheers,
Drc.

It sounds like you booted into stock recovery :)

There a app(free) called Quick Boot, look it up on play :)

Hi Pacattack,
Yes I have quick boot installed and this boots into cwm with no problem.
It was just the first time I tried I had the problem.
As I say after I had done a backup no problem.
I think the whole system runs smoother now after the update or is it my imagination?
Cheers,
Drc.
