Maybe you could connect your N10 to ddms and get the URL of the update file it's trying to load?

Sounds like it's already downloaded.... "restart and install", if rooted, look in /cache and copy out the .zip and the hash file as they will be deleted when installed.....

That's the 4.2 - JOP40C update everyone gets when get their devices... after that you will get one more to update to 4.2.1 - JOP40D

If i'm rooted, what's gonna happen if I install & restart?!

I don't know about the 4.2.1 update but when the first update installed I had to reinstall CWM and root again.

4.2.1 install broke root but I preserved my root with Voodoo OTA rootkeeper before getting the download. After the install was complete and I lost root, went into voodoo and restored root. Super easy. Everything still has access and all new apps that need root access get it.

I did the same thing without any issues. However, it did revert my TWRP recovery back to stock. I just went back into the bootloader, connected it to my PC and run "fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.3.2.3-manta.img" to reflash back to the TWRP recovery. It was good to go!! :good:

[Guide] ICS OTA Solution to Yellow Triangle

First, this is not an extensive guide.
Second, credit goes to -ViperBoy- for suggesting this to me on Twitter.
Here goes...
Disclaimer- This has only been tested with rooted .33 and I'm not responsible if you screw something up and/or iron jellyfish eat your junk. DO NOT RUN ICS OTA BEFORE ROOTING AGAIN AND RUNNING VOODOO ROOT KEEPER! This has not been tested with an unrooted ICS ROM being reverted back to .33 HC ROM.
Background- If you are getting the yellow triangle it is probably because you are rooted and have deleted a system app. Don't know why Asus counts bloat as system apps...but whatever.
Solution- go to Asus website and download the current version/region firmware. BE CAREFUL HERE (as of this writing the latest is .33 HC so you can still root it, but that may change). Unzip it and put the zip file into the root of the SD Card on you're TFP (the zip inside the zip... I'll elaborate more tomorrow to clarify. If you are confused here wait).
Then run it. This will un root you, but rest assured you can re root again before doing the jump to ICS. Now after restoring and rooting, Go to the market and get the voodoo root keeper app and run it. Then run the ICS ota and then restore root...profit.(I'll fix this all up tomorrow with links and such to make it pretty.)
Thanks again -ViperBoy- for taking one for the team!
Going to sleep now. Will come back to this tomorrow to clean up formatting and such. Tweet me if you have questions, it will alert my phone. @Techronico
I'm on unrooted ICS (went from rooted .33 -> ICS, forgot to use rootkeeper) and want to try this method to gain root. Will see...
How exactly do you "run it" again? I have the zip (from inside the zip) on the root of SD card and no idea what to do next.
Same here... If you're going to make a guide, please make it clear. This is ONE of the many ways that I've tried it, with no success!

[SOLVED] How did I lose root?

Using cleanrom 3.6 and all of a sudden I've seem to lost root privileges. Can't access root explorer or TB, etc. What's the easiest way to fix this?

If you have Amon Ra Recovery, it should be a simple task of using it to reinstall and Scroll to and enter the Developer menu and use install Su (Not the Eng Version)

just did that. still no root? i cant even update superuser, i get "gaining root access... fail!"
I think you need to update it from Market, er... Play, then it should work.
Oh, wait... I see you said you're getting an error... Do you have a backup of it not in Titanium, like with AppMonster or something?
if amonra works, backup the rom and since don't know the exact problem, ruu then start over.
Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22680227&postcount=1036 and download the attachment and flash it.
EDIT: lol backup before flashing ha unless you already flashed it

[Q] Messed up root coz of OTA update??

Hi all,
Well my friend had his phone rooted, he got an OTA Update, I warned him not to do an OTA update if his phone is rooted as it may mess things up, he's still an android n00b lol. Anyways he's seeking for help as he got the following error messages

I predict the solution is to re-root/re-flash CWM?? He was on CWM 6.4 btw
Also should I advice him to delete the OTA files via root explorer??
Thanks in advance

I think you are confused, he used CF Root 6.4 which gives CWM 5.5
The OTA files should have gone now as they have been used.
Yes re-root will give root permissions again.
All that message means is that the cwm manager app won't work directly with that version of recovery.....our at least some of the features won't work.
If he boss into recovery with 3 button combo all features will be there.
I have this due to the fact I stick with the old recovery that doesn't use blobs to create nandroid backups, so in conclusion, nothing to worry about at all
Thanks for the reply....but making nandroid backups is very important for him...will he still be able to do it??

No No...i'm not confused at all, I know that CF-Root 6.4 gives CWM 5.5
so the ota files are not there forever? they go once an update is made?? hmmmm never knew that

XT910: Root problem rolling back to ICS from US XT912 JB OTA

Hi there. I'm hoping that one of you kind souls can help me get out of this mess I've got myself in!
I recently followed therazrguy's instructions to install the US JB OTA leak onto my UK XT910 Razr Maxx (previously running the latest GB/EU Retail 4.0.4):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2078021
A pre-requisite was to firstly root my 4.0.4 stock ROM, which I did successfully using the Pedro's EternityProject EasyRootICS method here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1710871
I then made a back-up of my Customer ID (CID), as instructed by therazrguy.
I followed the remaining steps and successfully installed the US JB OTA leak (+ GSM patch, etc.) onto my XT910.
For various reasons (including hassles around having to reboot using BP Tools and not being able to connect to my PC using USB) I decided to revert back to ICS 4.0.4 until there is an official European JB release.
I tried to follow therazrguy's instructions to flash the ICS 4.0.4 fastboot files using rsd lite.
This worked successfully, but I noticed that I had lost root access (SU) which is required to restore my backup of the CID.
In an attempt to re-root my fresh ICS 4.0.4 installation, I tried to re-run EasyRootICS, but encountered the "su/superuser already exists" error.
Reb-booting the phone confirmed that the phone was not rooted.
I followed Pedro's recommendation and used the alternate root method "RootICS404 SuperUserFix" created by Dan Rosemberg:
http://www.4shared.com/zip/4adW6mS3/RootICS404_SuperUserFix.html?#
Unfortunately, this has not helped. Neither Pedro, nor Dans' solutions seem to give me the root access that I need to restore my backup of the CID.
So I'm caught between 2 worlds - I can't go fully back to ICS and I can't go forward to Jelly Bean, as I need root access for both.
Can anyone help me restore my root access?
Thanks so much!
T
EDIT: I managed to install SuperSU by re-running EasyRootICS another time. I got a bunch of error wierd messages after the 3rd reboot (see attached screenshot).

Now, when I open SuperSU, it tells me that I need to update the binaries, but then fails. RootChecker tells me that the phone is still not rooted. Any ideas of what to try next? Thanks!
Problem solved!
Solved it myself thanks! Installed SuperUser from the Play store and that got things moving with SuperSU.
I managed to root the phone, restore my CID and now I'm back to stock 4.0.4
Hope this helps someone else?

Man, I'll need JB on my system to try to root it. Unfortunally looks like you're stuck on JB 'till a new root solution or the RSD lite version comes out.
Sorry.

Lost my root

i recently decided to install a new LP rom on my galaxy s2. i was previously running the unofficial cm12. but before wiping the whole phonei decided to do a little internal sd cleanup, which led me to deleting most files (some that were important). i then successfully installed the new rom without any problems. Once the phone booted up and i tried to run titanium backup to restore my data it didn't detect root on my phone. so i have lost root and need help getting it back. any ideas?
Previous rom: [ROM][5.0.2][I9100] CyanogenMod 12 by Lysergic Acid
Current rom: Resurrection Remix by varund7726
PS: i know i am a giant noob at this so save the instults pls
thank you

You didn't loose root, you just haven't activated it. You can do so by going to developer options and enable root access for apps and adb.

Your recovery version is too old. You need recovery version 6.0.4.7 and higher. Download newer CWM version here: https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/i9100/
