hi guys, need help.. i received the 38R OTA notification this morning and proceed with the OTA.. upon restarting, and after the package has been verified, a status 7 error appears and update was aborted.. previously, i've always successfully go through 25R, 30O and 33R via OTA, no problem..

then, i tried to manual update using the stock CM recovery, the same error Status 7 appear..

then just now another 38R oTA notification appears.. proceeded with the download and suddenly the status says my system has no update, but my OPO didnt even restart, and the version stays at 33R.. not sure what happen here..

i was thinking of doing this:
1. download stock 33R
2. flash 33R via stock CM recovery tool
3. try search again for 38R OTA
4. if not available, try manual update to 38R..

would this work? thank you.

hi, im not rooted though.. i tried manual sideload 38r using stock recovery, same error.. i thought velvet.apk has somehting to do with google play store app.. but i've never manual update google play..

is there any way for me to update to 38r without using custom recovery? for me to install a custom recovery, i must root my OPO right? means lose all data?

nope bro.. google search is enabled..

hi, regarding my failed OTA 38R update due to Status 7 earlier.. is it possible for me to flash the stock 33R full ROM (from http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-on...image-t2857110) using the stock CM recovery to get back stock 33R over my current 33R without data loss? Thank you

this can be done by just using the stock CM recovery right?

thanks so much for the help.. will try and update soon..

meaning, with my current 33r (which caused the failed ota 38r update), if i were to proceed with flashing the complete 33R ROM using stock recovery, it won't work?

i have it and uninstalled and reinstalled.. still same update error..

yupe, the zip file.. wil give it a try and report the outcome tonight thanks
