Hi friends.
I have a doubt about what is needed for a correct OTA installation in official ROM.
For example, I was in 20s, fresh install, no root, and with twrp then an update appeared for OTA, the 23s, I did it from the update icon, it was about 1.8GB, even with the TWRP, it was installed normally, the TWRP was replaced by stock recovery. I flashed the TWRP again, and flash SuperSU too.
When I was in 23s, an update prompt appeared, the 26s, I did it by the update icon, it was about 500MB, after it downloaded and went for install it booted on TWRP but nothing happened, so I flashed stock recovery, and did the procedure again, it said installation failed.
So I don't know what I am missing? Do I need a special recovery, do I have to be unroot?
Thanks for your help.

I mean flash just recovery from this toolbox after 26s. It's ALL-IN-ONE TOOLBOX.
You don't need special recovery. You need stock recovery for official OTA update which is 26s. If you try to update official ota with twrp nothing will happen.
by the way how did you get OTA even after root?

When I was in 20s CN I was without root, just fresh install, so I did OTA to 23s, then I rooted. Now I can't do the OTA by the update app, I think it is because of the root.
OTA because of root? Strange!? it was booting in twrp?while flashing 26s

Sorry I missed a negation of "can"
Well. I unrooted, and the same problem EUI Update Failed Cause: Installation Failed.
I did many tests, but was not succesfull.
Anyway, I restored my 20s CN version, and then the OTA prompt for 26 appeared, when I was in 23s the OTA for 26s was about 500MB, now from 20s to 26s it was around 1.8Gb, and worked. Now i have the 26s CN.

You can only update full ota updates via TWRP delta ota can't be flashed via twrp that's why 500 MB 26S failed via twrp ( 1.8GB is full update, if you skip any delta ota next time you'll receive full ota update), so if you want to update delta ota you have to install stock recovery and most times you need a factory reset or complete wipe.
The strange is that I was on stock recovery pm 23s, evento like that the OTA oficina 500MB didnt work.
Hi,
same problem here.
TWRP was recovery. My solution:
First I replaced TWRP with stock recovery ("hxxp://xxx.leeco.re/topic/1942-updatedofficial-stock-recovery-lemax2_x820_x822-enus" (I'm not allowed to use links as new user...)) but TWRP was still there as "app". So I flashed s23 (with file manager, named as "update") again. Here it works.
Then I flashed the update.

Hi. One of the chance to solve your problem is like this:
1. do a full backup of your contacts; reflash stock firmware 124 ROW or Chinese Firmware.
2. reboot at least one time.
3. perform OTA update.
4. Voila KK.
5. Follow the instructions in my post and reinstal TWRP and then Root.
Second way is to flash only stock recovery from your firmware then ota update.
To do that you need stock firmware, open flash tool, load scatter file, unceck every thing except recovery, check DA DL ALL WITH CHECKSUM, then press Download and only now plug your cable in the phone.
As the tiltle says I want to install ota update on my phone. It's bootloader is officially unlocked, rooted amd xposed is also installed. I'm right now on cofface twrp.
Unless you made a backup of unmodified stock boot and system before rooting etc.
The ota will probably fail.
If you have made a backup of them? Then restore the backup and apply the OTA.
Make backups again if the OTA gets applied. Then root and install xposed again.
If you can follow this thread you see the steps involved in applying an ota.

I didnt made the back up of those files but today i unrooted, uninstalled xposed, flashed stock recovery but still ota fails.
i even followed the guide and replaced emmc file and modified updater script but twrp was not able to flash the update and can i install recovery rom using twrp even when im rooted and xposed is install adn do i lose data by flashing it?
Once you have modified your system and boot images. you can not unmodified them by removing the changes. Because the images will still be modified!
I don't know if you can flash the latest rom, without losing your data. What rom are you using?
I flashed xiaomi.eu rom, to avoid having to worry about getting and applying OTA updates. As detail in my previous post.
With xiaomi.eu rom, I can flash the updated roms without losing data.
You could try, making a TWRP backup of your data partition.
Flash the latest version of your rom.
Then if data gets wiped, restore the TWRP backup of data partition.
My phone was officially unlocked, used alka twrp. I can still have ota update of cause failed on incremental update, alter rebooted the phone, I received the second ota update full rom and flashed it , flashed superSU and exposed v86 with success.

To flash recovery MIUI rom through twrp, delete the emmc_appsboot.mbn file from the firmware_update folder inside the rom zip file, and then flash rom through ALKA TWRP .
To update rom, download OTA through updater app or MIUI site and then open the OTA zip file and delete emmc_appsboot.mbn file inside the firmware-update folder and then flash through ALKA TWRP .

I have a H850 on V10d. The bootloader is unlocked, TWRP 3.0.2-0 is flashed to the recovery partition and SuperSU 2.78 is installed.
When I try an OTA update, the phone reboots to TWRP. Rebooting from there leaves me with the old firmware.
What is the preferred way to update? Can I use LG Bridge? Or do I have to flash a stock recovery?

Update with LGUp o by flashing firmware zip (if avaible) trough TWRP.
Never do OTA when you are rooted or have a TWRP, there are high possibility to brick in these cases.
so if i have an unlocked bootloader, custom recovery, and i'm rooted, but have a bunch of apps installed and a bunch of configurations, unroot, flash stock and then install the OTA, i'm okay?

If you're going to flash stock, you may not need to worry about an OTA. Just find the latest KDZ file for your G5 H850 here: https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h850-firmwares/ and then flash it with LGUP. Your bootloader will still be unlocked, and you'll have to use fastboot to flash TWRP after which you can root your new stock firmware by flashing SU. Flashing stock is just that; you'll lose any installed apps and configurations you've set in 10d.

Maybe you can prevent some losses if you use the LG Backup tool at first!
Make a Backup and you can restore some of your apps and their data.

The stock recoveries are towards the bottom of the post. You can use Rashr or flashify from play store to flash. I prefer Rashr personally.
I just noticed you said l21. Sorry these are for l24

your phone must also pass the system partition check
you need an untouched system.img so you can revert to stock
If you want to avoid all this in the future it's quite simple
before doing anything to your phone with the phone turned off
plug phone into PC / hold volume down + power to enter the bootloader
from the PC command prompt use
fastboot boot TWRP.img
after it boots go to Backup and backup
Boot
Recovery
system (not system.img)
cust
oeminfo
efs1
efs2
firmware
modem
Save this backup to your PC so you can restore it for the next OTA update
Note: when restoring for the update only restore Boot / Recovery / System
the rest of the files are just in case something happens to your phone and you need them.

Hi, if I install TWRP and then do a complete backup will it backup my stock recovery as well or is there another way to backup the stock recovery?
P.S. I already have the backup of L22- B340 and when restored it doesn't get back to stock recovery. I'm completely clueless about how to extract the stock recovery.

previously using TWRP as recovery. never installed custom rom.
despite using stock recovery and stock rom, ota update failed during update (failure happens 25-30%)
i dont have an untouched system image for KIW-L21C185 B140 (middle east variant), if flashing this with TWRP solve the issue please provide link.
TWRP backup need to done after only update right?
what if i install "stock rom + stock recovery" using twrp? if it will be working please provide file link.
not sure both are same. used to do this way on samsung s2.
ps : while in recovery mode after failed ota update failure it asked for a recovery update. and recovery update is also failed due to some failure to gather information. sorry for missing the exact reason for recovery update failure. stock recovery installed from the file you provided.

no you boot recovery.img so you can backup stock recovery
your backup was done after TWRP was flashed ... stock recovery is overwritten when you Flash TWRP

Unroot, do a factory reset and try to apply update again.

My Le Max 2 is running 5.9.023S stock rom at the moment. Recovery has been changed back to Stock recovery (previously is TWRP).
The Rom update keep prompting for new Stable version 5.9.026S but when I follow OTA update it download, restart to Recovery try to update and Failed with Status "Failed to Update".
I even download the Rom file, change it to update.zip and do manual flash but still failed.
Can you guide on how to update this version?
Thanks a lot.
First flash TWRP back via Fastboot. You can flash the any stock official update 26S use TWRP just flash it normal as other custom rom. Note your current TWRP recovery will be replace by EUI stock recovery so you will have to flash TWRP again after installed 26S by Fastboot/other way.
I have a problem like that and i used TWRP (fastboot boot twrp.img) and flashed 23S again to restore some chinese apps that i removed earlier.
Then i updated without any problem to 26S.
The OTA update verifies the checksum of the modem, bootanimation, boot.img and so on. So, if you altered/replaced some of these, the updater script fails. Flashing the entire 23S from scratch obviously put all the correct files in the right place.
Where do you find the official 5.9.026S?
My phone is running on 5.9.023S and tells me its up to date.
Also on the Leeco homepage is the lastest 23S.........
I need some help also
My phone x829 arrived with 16s
I swapped some custom ROMs with twrp and at the end I finally installed the official 20s and I choosed to replace twrp with custom recovery
The problem is almost 2 months now and I don't have any message for ota update for 23 or 26s
What can I do?
Thanks in advance
16s is the last available rom for x829. To see updates coming, you must firstly flash a chinese rom
That's what I m saying
I have flashed and installed the 20s this is the Chinese rom,but since then I have no ota,2 months and no ota
You are right. I try to flash it back twice and now able to update to 26S. it works fine now. Thanks a lot.
