So I got a notification in the bar stating "Connecting to DM server". About 30 min later, another message stating "Update Available". Well, my battery is about 25%, so it postponed the update. Good thing though, it says to click the "Software Update" in the System Settings when the battery is charged.

My friend has the same issue. So I'm charging it for him. Going to run a log on his phone once we can upgrade it and see if we can get some nice information like a URL and such.

I have adb working at home, cant remember where I got the driver though for the phone. I put the phone in debug mode, hook it up via usb. WinXP pops up and wants a driver.
Where do I get this driver?

Hi again,
Do you need 32-bit or 64-bit drivers?
I have the 64-bit driver package on dropbox, can PM you the link, but I don't have the 32-bit drivers, sorry
I love how it says Congradulations! like you just won the update lottery.
So where would this update file be located? I have Dalvik Debug Monitor running. The only folder that has a change date of today is the "Data" folder. I cannot access anything in it though.
I haven't installed the update yet, if someone tell me the steps to get the files you need, i could help out
If you're rooted -- you should be able to look in /cache for a file named update.zip.

Any way you could pull the .zip out of the /cache folder and send a PM to s0niqu3? It would help the devs out as I don't believe anyone has done that yet (could be wrong and just don't see it though).

I can not find the update.zip file. The only thing I see is a downloadfile.apk in there. I think it downloaded this file first, then restarted the phone into an installation mode. Well there it did the rest as in downloading the zip file. When going back trying to find it, it is gone. Not sure what else to do. I uploaded to files of the log if there is any smarter people than me that can interpret it.

No need to install modaco R6 as it is not fully compatible with the latest vega firmware 1.8. Just follow these simple instructions and it will be working without any add-ons at all. CWM people will probably have to do it via the recovery.
Just download the attachment with the vega, go to settings, software tool, software update and point it to where you got the downloaded file. The vega will reboot and you will have a full working market. It will be the old version the first time you launch it but it will update itself. After that just install maps, youtube and everything else google. The only thing I'm having trouble installing is the official twitter app.
Hope that helps you guys at XDADEV

hi guys, i'm having issues trying to install market. i have tried this file and the one from o_g. with no luck. i can dl find and execute the file. when i comes to reboot i get the android out of the box symbol (which i'm assuming is bad ?)and have to power down the vega to get it to boot again, without market ? any ideas ? i have little knowledge of android (phone related only) and am a bit stumped.

The android out of the box symbol is fine thats when it is flashing the files. there should be a progress bar that turns orange, after that happens the device should reboot its self. The only requirement is you are running stock v1.08.

I have noticed launcher pro does not show in the market had to install manually. i have tried changing the market files, but that does not work, so it might be as you say down to location, or i think it could be to do with are device name on the market, maybe advent does not want us to have those apps. I cant remember where the device name is. I will have to look further.

Thanks for the assistance guys, my memory card was the culprit. I had swapped it for a bigger one, and not copied the contents. Sorted now tho now to get flash working properly

It works ok, you need to delete some of the apk's out of files/system/app. things like car home can be deleted and other little things. Like that it will not run out of space when you install it and it will not give you errors. This is just another option, that's all. Some more goodies will come along from modaco and xdadev like the new R7 rom addon that were made specifically for the 1.08 firmware.
thanks man, i just changed the 0 to a 1 at the end and it worked, then market updated the second time i opened it.

I posted in the thread in the General forum but I'll repost here, in case devs don't go there. I have the update and I haven't installed it yet. The phone says that it has been downloaded and verified. If I can get something off the phone in this state that can help the devs let me know. I'm thinking the phone downloaded a file that I could copy and post or something. I just don't know where to look for it. It says the update is 87.8M
Todd
Darn it! I wish I knew where they downloaded the update too.
Try doing this from a terminal emulator window or adb:
Code:
find / -name *.zip
and see if you see a zip named PB31IMG.zip
Thanks Todd. I appreciate you doing this. I didn't see your post in the general cause I rarely go there.

Found this in the desire forum. Would this work for the incredible as well?
The OTA .zip files which are downloaded from a Google server are not signed the same way as the RUU "rom.zip" files - they use the app .apk manifest signing method. (manifests and certs a la "jarsigner").
If you are interested in looking at the process that HTC/Verizon uses for the OTA updates, you can get the URL for the OTA zip the following way:
Run logcat on the pc and accept the update on the phone
$ adb logcat > logcat_accept.txt
This will sit like this (it continues to log output into the output file) until the phone reboots. At that point, the adb logcat job will terminate, and the name of the zip file will be indicated in the logfile in a message similar to:
W/SystemUpdateHelper( 64): !!! REBOOTING TO INSTALL /cache/desirec-ota-104882.7b1e5cca.zip !!!
Then, take the name of the file and paste it on the end of android.clients.google.com/updates/partner

The problem with that is that is that it downloads the OTA to cache, and removes it when the install reboots.

There is a better way which is to get the download link from logcat directly to googles server. That way everyone else can download it from the "legit" host rather than take your chance with 3rd party file hosts and potential for corrupt files. Yes you can use md5 to verify, but getting the zip straight from the source is best.
To the op, this info is not a secret, do some searches, it has been posted numerous times for each of the prior ota's of this phone and many others.

Hi this is my first thread and i really dont know how this works but heres the problem
i bought a nexus 4 16gb from a guy on craigslist and it has a wierd rom in it, it is still 4.2 and i am unable to get updates on it. i browsed around and landed on a forum that said about it being some kind of debugger/developers rom that google uses. i dont have a lot of feature i can't connect it to computer to root it and neither can i transfer file from computer for exaple music or pictures.
The build number is:
full_mako-userdebug 4.2 lgep19
eng.seungju24.choi.20121114.105751 test-keys
If you want your phone back to stock and unroot you'll need to access a PC and follow this guide.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010312
This will put the phone how it comes out of the box. Otherwise if rooted and has custom recovery why not stay rooted and flash different 4.2.1 roms?

Google "hdx 8.9 download"
Find the Amazon page that lets you manually download the updates
The download link points to 14.3.2.1..
Copy that link into a new browser window and edit it in two places
this is for 8.9 obviously

What Changed?
Wonder what changed... the recovery, kernel(s) and system apps all appear to be the same. There must be some critical bugs that had to be urgently patched with this latest update coming so quick on the tail of the 13.3.2.1 update.
[Edit]Upon closer inspection, looks like there are some noticeable changes in the following apps:
WhisperlinkSdk.apk
WhisperplayActivityView.apk
WhisperplayCDSSettings.apk
WhisperplayCore.apk
WhisperplayQCSource.apk
com.amazon.communication.apk
com.amazon.tcomm.apk

I've updated 13.3.2.2, somehow opened when the machine is updated immediately so!!
I wonder if it would be possible to insert the SU binaries in this new update and then manually install it without breaking the signature
I just did a manual "Check Update" on my HDX 7 and it said no new updates, but only has 13.3.2.1.
I did sniff the traffic from the Kindle during this check and found that it contacted "softwareupdates.amazon.com" - which I now blocked in my router for what its worth.
Captured packets attached just in case they're useful.
Well crap. Blocking the server as above on my home LAN did stop the update from ever happening but I forgot to turn WiFi off at School and what do you know, 13.2.2 snuck right on in in a matter of minutes

Couple questions...
1. Once I stay out of the Stock rom it shouldn't update. Am I right on that?
2. If I have a rom slot with Fire OS loaded to it and in use. Can I turn on wifi and it not update?
3. I have the AOSP rom in as lot. Can I turn on wifi in this without fear of update?

install safestrap on both stock and rom slot one
so it will not be able to fully update it will bootloop back to safestrap according to GSLEON3
Update the hosts file on the kindle to point to localhost(127.0.0.1) or something. That might, or might not offer some help on WiFi you don't control. You'll need to still have root to do this of course.
