Android 4.4.2 Update already ?! - Nexus 10 General

So I'm running a stock Nexus 10 for development purposes. I picked it up this morning to do a little debugging work and noticed ANOTHER system update was available. I can't seem to find any news about it since it appears to be so new. Perhaps a critical bug fix?
Android : 4.4.2
Kernel : 3.4.39-g5b5c8df [email protected] #1 Wed Nove 20 15:12:05 PST 2013
Build Number : KOT49H
I can't provide a screenshot because I'm a new user apparently.

You beat me to it. I got this ads well. It came through sometime this afternoon. Installed and running fine.?

well bugger; I have the transparent nav bar mod active so can't install it even thought it's downloaded and ready to go anyone know the step-by-step instructions to disable the system "stock-ness" check? I've seen it mentioned dotted about but not how to do it explicitly...

I haven't even gotten 4.4.1 yet. I'm assuming they found bugs with it and 4.4.2 should fix them. Well I guess that's the benefit of the slow roll outs.

Yes, root will be lost by updating (can only confirm this happens when you flash zip using TWRP). Just flash supersu afterwards and you'll be set again!

Link for OTA from 4.4 (KRT16S):

I just got this pushed OTA to my 10 also. Installing now and will report back after some usage.

It looks like, they have added a printing option in settings menu. Aparat from that, everything else looks normal. It is running like a charm

I have sideloaded the 442 update but now it takes forever on the Google startup page. Any ideas?

Performance was noticeably much better after the update. I was having some stability issues with the initial Kit Kat release but this seems to have made things buttery smooth again.

I received 4.4.2 OTA 5 minutes before, but when I rebooted it showed error, the reason might be that I deleted Korean input method several days before... However now I check update, the OTA totally disappeared. How to receive that OTA again? And do I need use adb to sideload that damned Korean input?
edit: I tried to sideload and TWRP log indeed showed that KoreanIME.apk has unexpected content. However after I pushed the apk into system/app, I still can't sideload 4.4.2. Anyone help please?

I just got the 4.4.2 right away straight from 4.4. Installed fine now I gotta reroot.

New Firmware Upgrade! (Feb 24th)

there is a new FW update available, installig now I will report later. I'm in mexico.
UPDATE
is official version 9.4.2.15. update was without problems, GPS seems to be the same (useless in door) everything else works fine, I will continue testing.
If anyone can find me the zip file of this firmware ...
Need it since I can't OTA because it reboots before finishing the "First configuration" steps
Thank you
Here we go again...lol. I'm always one of the first on these posts..ill check now. I was running the beta .15 build. Time for the official one now
Edit: says no update available yet. Might not have hit east coast yet. Post a screenshot of your about tablet of info. Or post what version it says you on now.
No Issues So Far (fingers crossed)
Installed without issue. Lost root restored with OTA RootKeeper.
EDIT: I've seen at least one "helpful" response to my post so I wanted to clarify the I lost root doing the update BUT I restored it with OTA RootKeeper.
UPDATE: No discernible improvement in GPS. Still nonexistent since .13. Everything else seems fine.
UPDATE 02/25/12: Maybe it was the weather yesterday but this morning I picked up 11 sats in my den and locked on 4. Woohoo!
Can confirm it. USA, NY. OTA update, Build #epad-9.4.2.15-20120221

Be careful! We had a few people brick their prime after trying to flash an official Asus rom/update after unlocking. Plenty of threads on it. I would just wait til virtuous rom updates. Check out the other threads on issue. You don't want to risk bricking your device.
Also in Canada..installing right now.

Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using xda premium
I wonder I'd the people who running beta .15 build will even get this update. It looks like exact same build number. So if nothing else changed then we already on latest build. Can someone who received official OTA post a screenshot to see if anything has changed? Or if someone was running the beta build post if you still received the new OTA.
Can someone post a list of the driver versions so we can see what changed? I think this is just a continuation of the random-reboot fixes, but I'd like to know if any of the wireless drivers were updated.
..so what do we do now?
Reset by clearing just data and apps, or using the "magic hole" and make a complete reset?
A link to this 15 fw would be nice when possible.
Great! just updated, looked like it is going smoother!
Just ran Quadrant benchmark to test if it goes a bit faster or slower
score is : 3834, is it me or has it gotten slower?
Got the .15 installing now in St Louis...
Only just found out this morning that, while my GPS works most of the time, and wireless works fantastically, BT doesn't see anything at all... maybe I'll get lucky and this will fix that.

My beta build looks exactly like this. So it was only beta since we tested it out I guess. Now that it got great feedback, they pushed the same thing out to everyone.
Thanks for posting screenshot.

Gosh unbelievable!!!!!!
Unlocked ? Your device is not an Asus device anymore!
You agreed this when unlocking your device! Didn't you read the agreement ?
You can't install any ASUS firmware update anymore: OTA, manually, or any other method you could imagine !
The only way is to have a system dump, or uncompress/extract the blob file, pick the modified files and include them in a ROM or make an update zip for unlocked devices I guess. I don't have skills for that perhaps someone will do that.
Here is my screenshot from beta .15 build I installed last night. Looks identical to screenshot of new OTA update.

Preparing for Android 4.3

Just wanted to know how everyone is preparing for android 4.3 which I'm sure is to be announced and available later on today.
Custom ROM users: are you flashing back to stock?
As a rooted and custom ROM user, I'm torn between flashing back to stock for update or just waiting a few weeks until its baked into some awesome ROMs. Thoughts?

Not doing anything. Doesn't really bother me. Once it's released, if it is found to have some must-have improvements, then i'll most likely wait for AOKP to incorporate it, but for now, my tablet works just fine and i can't see a reason to consider changing things up.

That's fair. For me though, honestly I may end up flashing back just to resolve the Mali driver issue. On my n10 it is a huge problem and I may not be able to wait any longer to resolve it, so hopefully 4.3 includes the drivers. We'll see.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
I also plan to just wait until it makes its way to CM. I'm planning on building my ROMs from source from this point on (adding PDroid and some other local changes) and it shouldn't take too long until CM is updated. I picked CM mainly because their build instructions are the best I've been able to find.
Just announced that starting today, Android 4.3 will be pushed to the Nexus 4, Nexus 7, Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 10.
Hi guys,
Do you recon 4.3 will need wipe or non - wipe? hope its non-wipe

Can we receive update if on stock, but rooted? Do we have to have stock recovery? Never had a Nexus device so I'm just wondering...
Its been so long since I updated mine I can't even remember what to do. I think the Nexus 10 toolkit will do it for me since I'm rooted.

While I'm not positive, I'm fairly certain that you update even without stock recovery, but you will use root unless you use an app called "OTA Root keeper"

Keep in mind if you do this, your device will be wiped. This is NOT an OTA.

Flashed mine, wiped all data, but works fine (I had restored to stock rom and recovery beforehand).
Notable changes include slightly snappier response, miracast support, and apparently finger flinger is fixed (read that in a other thread, i'm not rooted so can't check)

Yup, we can't confirm that in the code yet but it looks good. The end to random reboots might be here

I had that problem when I flashed the old OS after unlocking bootloader when I got the N10. A subsequent data wipe fixed it:
1. Reboot into Fast Boot
2. Select Recovery using volume rocker. Hit power to select. You'll get the android mascot with the red exclamation point.
4. Press Power and Volume Up at the same time (this is the side of the volume rocker that is away from the power button for those new to the device).
5. Choose to wipe all data. Confirm the selection.
6. Reboot.
I have my rablet rooted and bootloader unkocked. If i update via OTA i will lose root i suppose? I heard that the bootloader changes too. It will be relocked?

I had one also. Didnt care about losing root since it is easy to re-do. I took the OTA however it failed to install with "error". It put me back to my previous build and that was it. Update doesnt show as being available anymore. Oh well...
In order for the ota to work you need to be on the stock recovery, kernel and system files. Make sure you're on those and the ota works fine

I'm in the same boat. Just got my OTA notification but I'm hesitant to upgrade given the issues I've been reading. I'm 100% stock and unrooted running build LRX21L.
Any suggestions?

I've read of WiFi issues, lags and general hiccups with the new OTA. To be fair, most of the issues I read about were with older Nexus device (5, 7 and 10). I'll go ahead and upgrade with my fingers crossed...
Reverting to stock
I also rooted but have gained zero benefit this early on. Are the factory images out and is that the best way to be able to take the update?
Thanks for any help!

I had the same error.
Using the stock recovery diddent fix it for me.
I just downloaded the latest factory image from google.
And manualy flashed it to my nexus 9.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-9/general/videos-nexus-9-how-to-unlock-bootloader-t2935587
Look up the vid were he updates to the q update.
Just replace the files he uses with the latest factory image files from google.
What's interesting is that even with the error my system says it is on R now. I then rooted again and my tablet seems to be running fine. I debated just wiping it out and flashing the stock image, I'll do that if I ruin into any strange problems...

Bypass Android pay root detection?

So recently i was successful in rooting my device. Well i have heard of root cloak and i installed it from my xposed installer. Im currently running the Sky Dragon stock rom for 5.1.1. And even though I've installed root cloaker and activated and rebooted my device, i added the Android Pay app to the list. I then force closed or stopped the Android Pay app. So it gives me the error about it not being compatible so why or how is it still detecting my root? Is it cause the custom stock rom?

there's a post in p 11/12 of the CM13 thread where someone used a nexus 5x build.prop, unrooted, rebooted, added android pay, then. Re enabled root, and kept android pay functionality.
I did this too, and it worked for me. Even updated to latest nightly and kept functionality. Good luck.

Do a backup/ nandroid first. I screwed up when I first did this and it was a disaster trying to fix it.
1. download his attached build.prop.
2. Backup yours.
3. Replace your build.prop with his.
4. Disable root/unroot.
5. reboot.
6. Open android pay and add your cards.
7. Re-root/enable root, and enjoy.

if you're stock, I think you just need to disable/un root, set up android pay, then re root. Not positive though, been on cm since the day bump was released, and haven't looked back.

Well see im on a stock based rom called SkyDragon so will it work for that?
It might. Nandroid first, and please report back for anyone else who might be following this.

Android 7.0 "Nougat" OFFICIAL - Thread for early adopting and flashing and Discussion
So it appears the Android 7.0 Nougat release day is today after all (8/22/16)...WOOT WOOT
The website is up for the release
https://www.android.com/versions/nougat-7-0/
Reports are that the release will be hitting Nexus devices today, especially our 6P
Let's use this thread for developing findings, factory images, status on TWRP and root, etc etc. TWRP and root should in theory work the same with the N-Preview builds but that may or may not be entirely accurate on my part. I'll add links here as they come in.
When factory images are up they should show up here
