http://android.clients.google.com/p...553.signed-soju-GRH78-from-GRH55.a71a2082.zip
Download the OTA package here
Rename it to update.zip, and place it on the root of your internal storage
Shut down your phone, and reboot into the bootloader by holding volume up and powering back on
Choose "recovery" from the list, and select it with the power button
When you see the red triangle press volume up and choose to update

IF YOU ARE ON CWM:
Just got an Android 2.3.1 update for Nexus S. It's on ROM manager if you want it. Make sure you flash recovery 3.0.

Also, for this to work you must be on Stock Recovery. This will not flash properly if you are using clockwork recovery

Correct. Koush is currently looking at fixing this for CWM.

Can we try to update and flash the zip using adb?

This was just tweeted:
Just got an Android 2.3.1 update for Nexus S. It's on ROM manager if you want it. Make sure you flash recovery 3.0.

edit nevermind got update

I just got prompted OTA for this update. Anyone know it I was to accept it, would I have any problems since I changed my recovery to ClockWork recovery?
I know it's been said it's on rom manager now, I am just curious if there would be any potential problems of accepting OTA updates with the stock recovery gone.

I have cwm recovery flashed and looked in Rom manager but is getting that "the rom you are using does not support ota updates etc" How did you manage to get Rom manager to update it to GRH78??

ive tried every way listed on xda but still get a "error 7" when trying to flash the update. i am using stock rom with clockwork 3.0. anyone having the same issue or any way to fix it?

usb disabled?
Got the message from Google to update. So I let it do its thing, said unable to update zip and now seems my usb connection is broken. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I'm on NS despite my sig Also on CWR 3.0 unlocked

are we supposed to be able to install this 2.3.1 update that we download from rom manager?

Well there is very little info in OP
and could be worded little better to avoid confusion
You have to put on Wifi and go to download ROM for some reason if you on on mobile network it wont show the update in rom manager
Dont bother it wont. From what i gathered we have to wait for modified version

Download the zip, choose to open with rom manager and it will flash fine with cw recovery 3.0.0.

Got great news! I got it to work! All I did was put the .zip file on the root of my sd and used Rom manager to "download rom" chose the .zip file and voila!! It installed everything fine. I am officially on GRH78. Hope that helps people out!

is this with the paid version or non-paid?

the CWM update will work of you have not used Koush's rooboot.img and are running a the rooted boot.img.
He said he will release a version later tonight that should work with rootbootimg installed as well.

glad im on stock recovery + root.

can't update . . . help!!

So my apologies if this has been covered, have seen similar things but not quite the same . . .
been running decrapped. (was on revolt 1.0 or 1.1 a while back, but went back to decrapped.)
so . . . restored my original v4 backup from june, system and boot. wiped data.
and now it won't update! when i go to settings --> about phone --> update --> check for new, it downloads, but when the phone reboots itself, it says update failed, and i'm still on v4. tried it a few times.
also, lost clockwork . . . tried to reboot into clockwork, and when i said "yes, wipe data and return to factory settings", it didn't go into clockwork, but actually wiped data and returned to factory settings.
what am i doing wrong??!!
thanks!

Sounds like you need to download the revo stock you need to make sure everything is back to normal for some reason even if the boot.img. is different it won't update

First off, thanks for all the work you have been doing!
I have used LGNPST to first goto V6 with no luck, so I then used LGNPST to get to V4. I was unable to get the update with either one of these installed.
I then rooted and used your CWM zip posted earlier today, rebooted and used your RevoToolKit to reinstall the stock boot image. I even went so far to uninstall RevoToolKit after putting the stock image back on the phone thinking LG could tell I had it??
No matter what I do, when I choose "Software Update" "Check for New Updates" it still says nothing is available...
...Maybe I should get the original Moto Razr flip phone back out of my closet...

You want to make sure you uninstall CWM and revert back to the stock boot before you run the update from Verizon.

Is using RevoToolKit and installing the "!!!REVO STOCK!!!" the same as your reference of the "stock boot?"
Maybe I am making the assumption than the RevoToolKit's, "Revo Stock" image is correct, when in fact I should just leave the stock image that comes with LGNPST???

I did NOT use adb, and used CWM to restore the nandroid backup. SO either option apparently yields same results.
Maybe this issue stems back to the first day and first root of the phone and doing something different. I would assume using LGNPST would get the phone to its truly stock form though... ?

Worked for me, thanks mt!
Was a bit confused as to how to remove clockwork and why it disappeared on me earlier, but I think the answers to those questions are one and the same. (I'm not used to revotoolkit, rooted and installed cwm before revotoolkit existed and hence never installed it until today . . . )
I skipped flashing your revo stock zip, assuming my original back up would be good enough, but apparently I was wrong.
Looking forward to gingervolt!!

When you use the RevoToolKit to flash the stock boot image, you are replacing (removing) the CWM recovery. It is all one step essentially.
The instructions to 'remove CWM and reinstall stock' are actually 1 step.

right. that's where i got confused, never having used revotoolkit!
you hit "install clockwork recovery" at the bottom right, choose !!RevoStock!!, and reboot. this will both install the stock recovery and delete cwm.
I couldn't update to v6, either. but following mt's instructions worked. it's essentially what i had tried previously, though i had restored my own backup of v4 rather than flash the zip mt posted earlier; flashing the zip made the difference.

Easy V8 - V9 All in One

First I would like to thank PlayfulGod and mtmichaelson for the development that makes this work. The other credits as mentioned in the bat file are djrbliss, DRockstar, koush, Raidzero, thecubed, and firon.
This All in One will root, unroot, install and uninstall CWM without any pre setup on your V8 & V9 Revo. Super easy!
I modified the LG-Esteem-Revo_AIO.zip to work on my Revo and thought others would find it useful. I modified the bat file and moved a few things around. I tested all of the options on my V8 Revo. When using this your phone will reboot several times during the process. Please note that your phone needs to have USB Debugging enabled and the phone needs to be in Internet Connection mode.
I am NOT a phone expert!!! So please remember that if you have any trouble!
Please give all credit to the developers as shown above.

Make sure you backup your current setup before trying any new root method. Ive been saved countless times by this and some people are just to lazy to let the phone backup for ten minutes, because they get over excited by being able to root a new version.

My vz9 OTA keeps failing, even after running Stock Recovery in this AIO...others having the same issue?
---------- Post added at 02:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:04 PM ----------
also, when I choose the "Unroot and Stock Recovery" option it says:
"The system cannot find the batch label specified - UNROOTSTOCK"

ok I downloaded from the newer box.com link and that solved the cannot find the UNROOTSTOCK issue. But I still cannot successfully push stock recovery. It says
# is not recognized as an internal or external command

I tried it on my Revo. I got the same message. When the phone booted back up it had the stock recovery and root was gone. I don't know why the message shows up but the result was correct. Hope it helps. Hopefully someone with more knowledge can improve this. I put CWM and root back on without a hitch with option 2.

I successfully reverted back to stock recovery using this thread's AIO - I chose option 4 for stock recovery. I didn't chose 'unroot and stock recovery'. After that the OTA successfully pushed VZ9 to my device without error and I re-rooted using the Esteem root method here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1621625
After that, I used this thread's AIO Option 2: root and recovery to get CWM back. root just failed because I was already rooted using the Esteem method but CWM re-installed.
Only hiccup is after I re-rooted, my phone booted and hung at the black screen after about 3 seconds of the intro splash. I hard reset and restored all of my data (cwm - advanced restore - data only) using a CWM backup I did just before beginning. Maybe if I wiped dalvik and cache before starting it might have prevented that bump in the road?
All good now: VZ9 rooted with CWM and my phone and data just as it was before the OTA.

[Solved] SuperSU binary not updating, temporarily losing root

I've seen one or two threads that were in the same vein as this, but no clear resolution. Every time I open SuperSU, I get the message, "The SU binary needs to be updated. Continue?" I select "Continue," and am given the message to install it normally or through TWRP/CWM. If I try through TWRP, the phone restarts into TWRP, but does nothing. If I select "Normal," I get the "Installation failed!" message. I tried uninstalling/reinstalling SuperSU, but that didn't do anything.
In a related problem, I only have root access pretty much immediately after I reboot. Only immediately after I restart the phone can I use apps like WiFi Tether or Titanium.
I'm on stock, rooted 4.1.2. Any help would be great, thanks!

Thanks for responding! Just to clarify, should I follow that readme file’s instructions, even though I’m already rooted and have TWRP? If simply choose “install” in TWRP and select this zip, will I have the option to just install SuperSU, or should I extract one of the following 3 zips in that file first?
SuperSU-v1.41.zip
superuser.zip
Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip
I assume this won’t wipe my phone, but of course, I’ll do a nandroid backup first. 

Well, I went into TWRP, went to "install," and selected the whole .zip, but it didn't look like it was going to give me the option to flash just SuperSU.
Agh... I should do this stuff more often so I'm not so clueless each time I need to do stuff in recovery...

SOLVED!
I figured I just needed one of those SuperSU zips found in the file linked above, but first, I decided to first see if there was a more up-to-date version. I wound up downloading the updated version from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053
After flashing "UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.41.zip" in TWRP, my root access is much more robust (i.e., not losing root after one app successfully requests access) and I am no longer being prompted to update my binaries!
Thanks again!

TWRP is a recovery not a ROM. If Normal doesn't work, select the other one. Assuming you have a custom recovery (I recommend TWRP for this phone), it should restart into recovery and flash the update there.

Hello, im new here and if you can please answer me on German
My problem is when i start to update SuperSU Binary it is failing on Normal mode and TWRP is happening nothing.
When i rooted first everything was glad, but there was no button to update the Binary and when i used apps like Xmodgames it says, my root is maybe no succesfull, so i rooted again without deinstalling the SuperSU blabla. And now is nothing working, if i go in Root Checker it cant find my root. Pls Help, sry for bad Grammar etc.

still have the problem
I did the flashing of the latest su update zip on my recovery reboit and ny supersu still prompts me to update binary just like before...HELP!!

my samsung galaxy s duos 2 is not updating binary in any modes
what should i do please help me

Is there any other way to update the binary other than through TWRP or CWM. I can't for the life of me find a CWM or TWRP recovery for my Hannspree Titan.

Hey guys, I have a problem here...
I had rooted my tablet and installed SuperSU, I choose the normal mode for binary update but it said it failed. Then I tried in TWRP/CWM but it just restarted my tablet and there it stayed.
When I power it on, it just keeps restarting every 5-7 seconds and it doesn't do anything else.
What should I do?

[Q] Where's my recovery?

So I just recently decided to flash the unbloated OTA offered in the download section. I was on the 12 radio before running a regular ROM with ROM Manager and everything working perfectly. I flashed everything and all went smoothly. I flashed the OTA and the other required .zip. I then tried to root with IOroot25. Well my phone is detected, but when it goes to reboot into recovery, it never really does. So I tried to adb reboot recovery and the same thing happened - not going into recovery, just kinda' sitting at a very dark, though barely lit, screen.
Everything functions fine but it appears I do not have any sort of recovery at all. How would I go about fixing this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What debloated ROM did you flash?

So I just recently decided to flash the unbloated OTA offered in the download section. I was on the 12 radio before running a regular ROM with ROM Manager and everything working perfectly.

Well my phone is detected, but when it goes to reboot into recovery, it never really does.

It got removed, you need to downgrade the aboot to install a recovery once you upgrade the firmware to 24A. 24A plugs the exploit that was being used. Easiest route is to use the AutoRec app in the LG G2 Development section.

How can I use this program if I can't attain root? It says it requires root, which IOroot25 cannot do due to not having a recovery to boot into to apply the .zip.

I'm going to try the KDZ method here to flash the factory version in its full glory. Hopefully that will restore recovery mode and allow me to root the thing. I'll report back with my findings, and whether or not I was able to do this using the above link, IOroot, and AutoRec.

I am having the same issue. I was running CM11 on a verizon lg g2 with CWM recovery. I flashed prerooted 4.4.2 from MicroMod777 along with the KK baseband. It worked, but I lost root AND recovery. Now when I tried to use ioroot 25, my phone won't boot into recovery at all. It appears that I lost recovery. Is there a simple way to install recovery back?

Return your phone to stock, let it take the OTA then rroot and install recovery.

Running TWRP and am happy with that but would prefer CWM touch recovery. Have tried several methods to install from various XDA treads with no luck. Any info you know of on that?

CWM installed fine for me using their purchased app and just flashing the touch version after selecting my device model.
I have also installed it using .img files provided in the forums and using Flashify to flash them.

I was able to use .img files in the forums with 11a...I never took 12b...just stayed on 11a and ignored the update.
I returned to stock to get to 24a and was able to root but can't for the life of me get CWM recovery installed. I have tried flashify, installing zips, pushing .img with adb...no dice. I get error messages every time or the black screen you described in this thread's original post.
Just tried to load the zip from TWRP...no dice.
I purchased touch through the paid version of CWM and chose my device...nada...it's killing me!
I can live with TWRP but love CWM touch. Really at a loss.
Are you running 24a? If so, can you point me toward the forum link you used to get CWM loaded?

With 24a I pushed it with adb instead of flashing it via Flashify and it worked decently for me. Personally, though, I do like TWRP more, albeit it doesn't have that convenient application like CWM does.

So you took the OTA and you're on 24A now? If thats the case you need to push the 12B aboot first before you can flash recovery. AutoRec will do all that. And flash recovery for you. After its finished you can flash CWM touch if you want.

Have you ever seen this? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jmz.soft.twrpmanager It flashes recovery for you, you can manage backups, with a donation you can even make live backups while still booted in Android. I haven't tried it yet because I keep forgetting. Sounds so cool though.
