I just did a check for updates on my Fascinate, and it pulled down a 697KB update, SCH-I500_DH12_to_DI01. Not sure what it changes, etc.
I was able to download it, but I can't get it to install. It keeps failing. Do I have to unroot to install?

Not sure. Some guys in #samsung-fascinate on irc.freenode.net are going to mess around with it.
I got it. I think it installed correctly. Baseband ends in DI01 now.

did you lose root?
got mine really don't notice a difference..anyone else?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App & yes I'm a chick.
Just tried to trigger the update - got a Server Unavailable message. Guess they took it down??
Mine failed. Says IP previous update failed now.
the is a list of changes in one of the threads in dev section.
you have to have a stock /system to be able to apply so if you removed any bloat must put back or flash with odin
Ota will cause root lose but we have a flashable zip with root if you got clockwork running

Same issue here
Mine failed as well with the following error code: "UPDATE FAILED or INCOMPLETE. reason: IP_PREVIOUS_UPDATE_FAILED."
I wasn't rooted, but I do have third party software installed. Any ideas why I can't get the update to stick?
I tried the update on my non rooted phone. I mean i've never even done anything extra to it, and i still got the update failed reason: IP_PREVIOUS_UPDATE_FAILED
I'm thinking there must be something wrong with the update.
I'm having the same issue with "IP_PREVIOUS_UPDATE_FAILED".
I was rooted+lagfixed but went back to stock using the ODin restores, still getting the above. I've tried it with and w/o CWM enabled as well.
*EDIT*: I just want to note that the phone attempts to reboot and install the update, and I can see (VERY briefly) the recovery manager attempting to apply the update. In this, I was able to see 'signature verification failed' amongst the normal messages.
Hmm, if you're running the stock recovery, and stock everything else, and you see a "signature verification failed" error, then the downloaded patch must be corrupt. I'm guessing you might need to delete the downloaded files and force it to redownload the patch, but I have no idea how to do that.
On a side note, I just applied the official patch to my rooted and lag-fixed Fascinate yesterday, by temporarily reverting to stock, and re-rooting afterward. I posted the steps I took to do this over in the development forum, for those that are interested: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=792652
I called verizon and talked to tech support about the IP_PREVIOUS_UPDATE_FAILED problem, he didn't have a fix. So he said i can take my phone back to the store and have it replaced with a new one.
Anyone know where I can find the bloatware apk files? I got a little trigger happy and deleted them instead of renaming. I can't install the update until I replace them.
Any help with this...
I was rooted with lag fix and OTA installed unannounced. So I lost root as expected. Meanwhile, seems I have the update but each reboot brings the update screen back, over and over again. Baseband and build number are updated. I have rerooted, un-lag fixed. Trying to get this update to stop showing up because its KILLING my battery. Thanks for any help.

If your Fascinate (unrooted, cannot speak to rooted phones) will not take the update, AFAIK your only option seems to be the 30 day return policy at Verizon. Last week after over two hours in the store they finally swapped, but even that phone would not take the update. I went in today, got a new phone, and it took the DI01 update. Third times the charm.
Its updated for sure and currently rooted. When the phone reboots it says installation starts in "x" and counts down. I have to defer for 24 hrs to keep from irritating me. I may try the store for an exchange.

i guess im going to call verizon with a bs reason i need a new phone. I have tried to update off nan from when i first rooted downloads but wont install dont understand sbfing and zip files wont load need serious help
What exactly is your phone doing right now? Is it stuck on the boot logo or what?
Its operational, I just flashed back to first nan and reloaded fission cause nothing I did the 928 back to stock ect worked, even tried updating without signing into google, unrooted and all that just frustrated it won't work

Ok, so you are up and running then. The only thing i was going to suggest is flashing SBF to get you back to Stock Android 2.2 and starting the process over again. I had a similar problem and wiped everything clean IOT get what i wanted. SBF'ing is simpler then you think, all you need is 2 files (rsdlite_4.8 and VRZ MB810_2.3.15 sbf). There's lots of articles here on it and I used them when I thought I bricked my phone. I started all over and was able to receive my 2.2.1 update.....finally!!
have you done the ota update? if so use 2.3.32.sbf you can get it by google and search droid x 2.3.32 sbf and its the first result. and dl rdlite 4.8. very easy to flash. several guides on here as stated.
I got it my drivers are up to date but won't find my phone.. And I'm leary all I got to do is that file and update?

I was trying to install the DJ05 modem.bin via odin, however, the phone will not boot. it shows a symbol of a phone caution sign and a computer. I have tried to reflash but to no avail. I have tried to flash back to DI01 but has not helped. I can boot into download mode but nothing else.
Did you use phone or pda. If you used phone, you are bricked
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
i used pda. I've done this in the past with no problems, however, this time for my friends phone it has done this.
try flashing in download mode again. I've got that problem before. I reflashed it with stock kernel, system and recovery then all things came back. ^^
Search Adrynalin he is a Mod on here that is Amazing with these phones. If he has time he will walk you through some steps that will get you back! Don't forget to buy him a beer!
The OP actually got everything sorted out on another forum. Turns out it was just as simple as removing the battery before plugging in and launching Odin
Link please! I'm in the same rut after flashing. :-(

PLEASEEE!!! help me out i tried upgrading from kies mini to froyo. I did this with success earlier in the past on my old vibrant but had it replaced to a referbished one and i tried upgrading it now.. but my vibrant was stuck at downloading the uprade on kies mini at 1% for half an hour... and the vibrant had the android shoveling yellow sign saying do not turn off target... for half an hour as well.. I knew something was wrong there because it didnt take even close to that long last time..
NOW I tried unplugging the usb wire restarting the phone in emergency mode still nothing... now all i have is a cellphone...yeild sign... computer icon showing..
PLEASE HELP!!!
Dont worry you totally didnt brick your phone. Its pretty common, can you get your phone into download mode? If you can then just odin to stock.
1.Take your battery, sim card and SD card out
2. Plug in USB Cable
3. Hold volume up/down and plug in battery (There are a few ways of doing download mode and I believe its phone specific, or if you have bootloaders installed its different as well, google around a bit...
4. Start odin and presto, your phone works again!
hey thanx... I just did that.. I never used odin but i installed odin with all the files... I believe my vibrant is hardware locked because i was trying to get into download mode for 2 hours with different techniques.. such as just volume keys and power button... taking out the battery holding volume keys then putting it back in.. but nothing put me into a downlaod mode... somehow odin still found my phone while i was still stuck under that picture...
I loaded the .pit file without the jfd image.... becuase i didnt know what window i was suppose to load the jfd image from... like pda.. or etc???
anyway so i just loaded the .pit file and clicked start it reset the phone and the phone went into restart mode and it turned on fine i checked it works fully... lol.
It makes no sense... was i suppose to load the jfd file somewhere?????
i still want to upgrade my vibrant to 2.2... but now whenever i turn on the keis mini it promps me to emergency recovery upgrade... so i tried doing that and went into download mode since now i can.. and plugged in my phone but the progress bar on my computer for upgrading never moved from 0%... its odd... am i doing something wrong?
so again i disconnected and "bricked" my vibrant again lol... went into odin followed the same steps just loading the .pit file and it reset the vibrant back to normal again lol...
Im so confused yet happy that i have my phone working but i still want my froyo... i love the fact that i can use yahoo video messaging on it with froyo and have flash and other benefits..
any advice?
Thanx again
try this...........
power off phone
pull out battery
GRAB THIS STUFF : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1047087
turn on odin
attach phone to pc with usb cable
now while holding down both volume buttons put battery back in.
now you should be in download mode and go back to stock with odin from here!
make sure u put the proper .pit and .pda file in there proper places on odin and ur set to go.
Enjoy and also make sure u have the proper samsung drivers
put pit in pit and tar in pda on odin
Connect it to the PC and see if ODIN recognizes it.
If it does, you are safe, flash stock.
EDIT: nvm, didn't notice the third post was yours.
Anyways, if ODIN can STILL recognize it, get the first from the link on the post above, FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS and enjoy your again-useful phone.
I had that same issue once.
Try a JIG. And do a search, I see like 50 posts a week like this.
First.
Thank you all for taking your time to help. I have one last question... since I used Odin but it just reset my phone and I didn't flash the old firware on it..... ever since that now I tried to update my phone with kies mini and it says phone unregistered... in that place before it used to say new firmware available and showed old forward numbers/letters.
So if I use odin all the way will this resolve "unregistered device" problem?
Thanx again

Bricked
I have a similar issue, was soft bricked, Odin to stock then, while using Mini Kies to upgrade back to Froyo the phone turned off and never came back on. I cannot get any response from the phone as far as light's or sounds. Checked a few batteries and still no use. I'm curious if anybody else has had a similar experience?
so if it should solve the unregisted problem... where I put in the pda file... is it possible to put in the last froyo there so odin could flash froyo on my phone so basically i wont have to go through kies process?
odin back to 2.1 then root and then flash a 2.2 rom way better then a stock 2.2 rom

Make sure you have the right odin files, once you have gotten back to normal just do a factory reset on your phone if that is possible. Then root, flash, and do whatever you want to do. Without your proper files for odin you'll get bricked or get something different.
How screwed am I? Odin doesn't recognize phone, vibrant aio toolkit can't adb phone into recovery or download mode. Flashing different rom screwed up during kernal phase and I stupidly rebooted phone. I CAN use a jig I bought to get into download mode but computer Odin doesn't 'see' it.

its a refurbished phone.. when i got it.. i uploaded my old pics without a problem with the same usb cable..... its weird.... i dont know what to do? what is it likely the phone itself or i messed it up with kies upgrade????
please help.. its frustrating me
Ok i've searched the forums and am getting more and more confused. I have gingerblur 3.1 installed currently and would like to do the ATT ota update. Can I just download it and install from the system update? Or do I need to wipe the whole phone clean and start over? Thanks and sorry if this is a duplicate.
I am wondering this too...

I'm in the same boat, I got GingerBlur 4.5 installed and I would like to install the Gingerbread 4.5.19 OTA update. Are there proper instructions out there? I can't find any. I'm assuming I may have to go back to Stock 1.8.3 and do an OTA update. But can someone please confirm. Any instructions would help as well. Thanks
The directions I seem to need are...
Un gingerblur
Un root
As an aside, I got notified of the ota and it failed.

Make sure your battery is fully charged so that you don't run out of power during the upgrade process.
To install the upgrade:
Copy the file to the SD Card
Your phone is on the latest Android 2.2 software (Blur_Version.4.1.83.MB860.ATT.en.US)
From the home screen, press Menu, select Settings,
Scroll down and select About Phone.
Select System upgrades.
After a couple of minutes, your device will confirm the upgrade is available.
The Copy prompt will appear. Select “Copy”
The Install upgrade prompt will appear. Select Install Now.
Your device will power off and display installation progress.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
Please ensure you are aware of the following information after the installation of the package
It will then power up and stay on the carrier logo for up to 5 minutes before powering on to the home screen.
Please do not interrupt this process.
Contacts and email from Google and MOTOBLUR may take up to 60 minutes to synchronize. The phone may appear slower during this initial synchronization process
I am in the same boat as that guy with gingerblur 4.5 .
I don't have an sd card around me atm so would putting the file on the internal storage work or not?
ALSO if I update this way, will it delete all of my media and apps? thanks

i tried to install the OTA update, it failed... tried to install it manually and it didn't work either. i tried to install it using android recovery and it didn't work.
Im using gingerblur 4.5
side note,
can any one of you please provide the full name of your system version? mine says "Version.4.1.83.MB860.ATT.en.US ", thing is, I tried to flash a stock sbf to roll back to motoblur, RSDlite fails every time with a message "sec_exception febe 35 35", my phone isn't recognized as 'NS Flash Olympus', it shows 'SE Flash Olympus'.
is there a thread to fix this issue?
thanks!
I figured out how to do it. First I unlocked the bootloader and then followed the directions on here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1163342
Worked fine
You need to flash back to stock, i.e. flash 4.1.26 or 4.1.57 or 4.1.83. OTA update to 4.1.83 if you are on an earlier version. The update will not work if you are modded in any way. You need to be on stock 4.1.83.
My god, how many times does this have to be said!!!
So let's just say that you are a moron (like me) and just did the OTA over Gingerblur 4.5 and now you have the exclamation point triangle and android on your screen and it does do anything... is it safe to battery pull? or did I just brick my phone?
EDIT: nevermind...
Is there any guide how to flash back?...

Well you could use rsd if you've never installed the GB ota.
