OTA or ADB flashing?

Neither - fastboot!
Yeah, manually did it via factory image!
Seems a bit snappier so far, but that might just be a placebo, or just because I have freshly rebooted it!

I flashed the new image and then flashed twrp and SuperSU and so far everything seems fine. Stock, rooted seems as fast and stable as the previous build if not more so....

What was your previous firmware level?
Changes are relative

What's the kernel version/date?

I was on the latest version of 5.0 before this (can't remember exactly what it was. Ha ha).
Here is the about screen.

}

This version is 5.0.1_r1 (LRX22C).

Ok, downloaded the 501 image, unzipped all IMG files and flash then manually, individually.
system.img
recovery.img
cache.img
boot.img
vendor.img
even performed a fastboot -w to wipe
After reboot it does some more reboots, show android robot once.
But finally i get the google logo and thats it. Nothing.
edit: oops typo . used wrong commands.

I only flashed the system.img, the rest is the same as the previous build.
I have to say, boot pretty fast after I installed SuperSU again (you'll never know) wipe cache and Dalvik and then done.
Tablet worksfine

Dalvik? Lollipop changed to ART afaik. Lol.
Just restored Q factory image. Booted right away!
During setup i get a message 'your tablet needs to download an update and restart'.
17.9Mb
Will be the q-to-r i guess. < 5 minutes later > Yep, got R now.
Flashing 501 system.img... takes 3 minutes or so.
Ah, reboot. Got the flying dots. Finally. "android is upgrading".
Checking 'about' ... On LRX22C now. Thanks.

You flashed everything as system.
The correct way would be:
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-flounder-3.43.0.0114.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img

Well, TWRP offers only wipe cache and dalvik, no matter whether there is only ART

I flashed it and it works fine. I dont notice any apparent changes though.

The DNS bug is not fixed. Local addresses are still not resolving to internal addresses, but the external IP. Annoying. The bug is marked as fixed but apparently not a part of 5.0.1

you MUST reflash a kind of stock/not gps moddified version :/
Getting this same issue on wifes Nexus 4. Its stock with the 4.3 JB OTA no mods or root since that OTA. Can't understand why GPS.conf could be changed.
If I root and TWRP could a factory image update.zip with the -w wipe removed work to get her to KitKat without wiping and redoing her phone? I am used to flashing custom roms this stock ota stuff is giving me a headache.

You do not use custom rom or custom recovery to flash factory image. Use the links in my signature for instructions.

I understand that, she is stock ROM, with stock recovery and not rooted when she is having this issue. No root TWRP or custom rom involved. Since it wasn't working with stock recovery was looking for options without wiping device during factory image flash to fix GPS.conf file thats buggered.
She got the OTA normal way on her phone this afternoon, but it failed. Will check out your sig links when I get home and see if I can solve this without spending all night setting her phone back up from a factory image wipe :/ Thx for feedback and any pointers

The flashing will required an unlocked bootloader, so if its not unlocked you will lose all data when unlocking it. (Doing a factory reset in stock recovery also wipe everything.)
I don't really know what else you can do, if there were never any modifications, then the problem is due to Google having too much protections and issues for their OTA packages.
Unlocked so can do the method in your guide. But she says she wants to clean up her phone so a clean start will probably perform better and she gets the clean slate she wants, problem solved Though OTA checks annoy me now lol
thx for the feedback and guides

I flashed stock rom with Toolkit, many times wipe data - cache - factory reset - sd reset etc. But problem not solved. Tried 4.4.3 - 4.4.4 nothing boot system. Just stuck on bootloader animation or Updating system apps...
I can boot with 4.2.2. but just one time. After i reboot don't boot. Stuck on bootloader animation... If i do wipe, stuck at Starting System Apps.
Its something wrong with 4.4.3+ or baseband version idk. What can i do other than flash stock Google img?
Also sim card don't working... No imei no imei sv no baseband. 4.3+ don't boot. I really don't know what should i do.

Now flashed 4.2.2 (JDQ39) Google img with toolkit + TWRP 2.7.0.1 everything is Ok. Then flashed 0.48 Radio (Source: JDQ39). Nothing changed.
I also tried 0.84 radio.
And always boot takes a long time.
Maybe its hardware problem, how can fix it?

Try too when flashing 4.2.2 with toolkit changing your recovery to CWM. And it's not necessary to flash a radio after, the radio is included in the image.

If all else fails, take a look at this tutorial, in theory could recover access to your imei with it.

OnePlus One July OTA Update Android 4.4.4

Yep it's out.
For those of you in need to manually update read below.
Download: cm-bacon-d22b777afa-to-0428073396-signed.zip (KTU84P, XNPH30O)
Install: To install the update, flash a custom recovery (TWRP recommended), boot into it, then sideload using adb sideload - if you've ever updated a Nexus device before, then you'll feel right at home, as the steps are exactly the same. TWRP will ask if you want to re-root at the end.

Wtf is this thread....anyways has anyone tried a clean flash yet?
just flashed it. thanks man!
Why can you flash the zip, why do you have to sideload it ?
Mine keeps failing some sort of verification check, on both cm recovery and twrp.
I flashed it through TWRP, NO ISSUES

Are you sure you're installing with "adb sideload" as instructed? You can't install from the "install" button in TWRP.

yep. on both the stock cm recovery and twrp i get this error:
Code:

If you've flashed any mods or made any changes to the system. It will fail.

If you guys flashed my Smooth Scrolling Mod, flash the revert and then try the OTA
http://forum.xda-developers.com/one...scrolling-mod-mahdi-rom-t2840934/post54762296
Basically when you're on stock ROM and if you did any changes to your /system/ then it will not update because its been modified.
does this include removal of apps ? Mine failed to sideload as well.+
Edit 1: I did do some modding of the build.prop as well this morning.
I had a feeling that the system partition was a problem, so i wiped it and then reflashed the previous build from cyngn.com and the update still fails.

Same problem here, fails at:
assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/framework/apache-xml.jar","44e4.........","eab54.........")
Everything is stock, except Recovery. Tried with original recovery and it still fails...
Got mine to update even though the system partition was updated with a modified updater-script.
I will upload the entire zip with the updated script. For those that know what they are doing the updater-script is attached.
Edit 1: Note you do loose root. You have to install supersu again if you did have it previously (if you modified system then you did)
I have a louder sound mod. So basically I have to reflash to pure stock to use this? That sucks.

look at my post.
I guess the update.zip factory image from the official site isn't truly stock. so i went with the nuclear option and just reflashed everything via fastboot. update worked perfectly now haha.

i also received it yesterday evening.
This build fixes known stagefright bugs, although a new one (aka CVE-2015-6602) has recently been discovered by zimperium:
libutils in Android through 5.1.1 LMY48M allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted metadata in a (1) MP3 or (2) MP4 file, as demonstrated by an attack against use of libutils by libstagefright in Android 5.x.

Do keep in mind the instructions given here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/xt1053-222-27-5-stagefright-ota-update-t3210786
I had TWRP installed, root, custom logo etc. and just took the update (in my defence, it was early morning and I wasn't thinking). Taking the update with TWRP get you into a semi-bootloop, where the system restarts after about 1 minute to try to install the update again. Just restoring to stock recovery made the update install, but it then hangs at the boot logo.
I had to restore from a factory image to fix it. Whilst restoring it didn't allow me to downgrade gpt.bin, so keep that in mind.

Yea, the OTA is looking at the specific fingerprints of the build.prop, so your custom recovery would indeed prevent it from flashing , also there are the MD5 hash checks that prevent the partitions from patching

It sounds like you may have had issues with the boot or the system partitions, you could have tried re-flashing the stock 5.1 partitions from the image hosted, then taken the OTA, but I'm glad you were able to get your device back up and running
The gpt.bin is applied (near) last in the official OTA procedure, this is the bootloader being updated, and once you update your bootloader, you cannot return to anything before that bootloader safely (there are ways to apply other partitions, but it is risky and complicates the OTA process moving forward), if you do flash without updating the gpt.bin, please remember that in order to safely take OTA's, you will have to flash the most up to date stock image otherwise you will hard brick your device
It seems that the Smart-lock NFC Tag recognition bug was corrected
I had TWRP installed and flashed 5.1's recovery.img to be able to install the OTA. The OTA was installing fine until I noticed a reboot, which left me with the "Bootloader unlocked" warning screen and then nothing. I can boot into fastboot and have cleared the cache partition; to no avail: the wanring screen stays on for minutes.
Any pointers to revive my phone without clearing user data?
Fear not, you can still save your phone and all data on it. See me post a few message above here. I had the exact same problem. Follow the link in my post, and flash the Factory image, then take the OTA. You can skip the command to erase userdata, and even all your data and programs are safe. It will fail on the command to flash gpt, but this is no problem.

I tried that already, but gpt.img failed to flash (downgrade prevention) and the system.img is too big for flashboot and I don't have an mflashboot for 64bit Linux (arch) ...
Edit: missed your edit about gpt
Edit2: installed arch32-light, chrooted into 32bit and mfastboot'ed all, except for user data clear Booting/optimizing as wel speak!!!
Edit3: installed the OTA after going back to stock/non-root and it boots too!
Conclusion: always check XDA before flashing anything!
I also tried the ota. Have Stock 5.1 but TWRP and Root. TRWP showed error after flash-try. Reboot System was OK, but self-restart booted up TWRP again and again.
Update File can be found in "CACHE" folder. Just delete it (in TRWP) and self-restart is gone.
So is this actually 5.1.1 or just an update to 5.1?
5.1 only

Can you perform fastboot commands?
Wait just flash a rom with odin then go back into bootloader and flash twrp.

How do I mark the best answer?
I've installed the LOS, got it working but no gapp apps. So tried to flash TWRP again, but it always boots to the LOS 18 recovery and not TWRP. Now going back to Note3 stock. There must be something I'm doing wrong somewhere.

Before you flash the recovery, untick the Auto Reboot option in ODIN. Then flash the recovery. After flashing in done, reboot your device directly to recovery mode from download mode by pressing Vol up + Power + Home button together. Now you will see the TWRP recovery is booted in your device. Now you can reboot normally and your TWRP will be installed.
