System Update Message?

Not sure what it was, but I got a system update message on my phone. It wasn't like the voicemail one it didn't say what it was for.
So I clicked install or whatever, it rebooted and went to like the rom installer screen (black white letters, installing system packages)
I get back into android and it doesn't look like anything is different, however I went into settings and a message popped up saying I needed to charge the battery before the phone could finish upgrading.
Anyways I am new around here, first android phone. I was rooted installed 2.2 froyo, had a few bugs and went back to stock and thats when the system update prompted me.
Anyone else get it?

Did you check and see if anything is different now under "About phone"?

No everything looks the same, and if I go to try to update the firmware or anything it stays I am up to date.
Really strange, it definitely seemed like it installed some system files. It looked like when you flash a custom rom through clockwork and see like unpacking /system etc etc.
Charged my battery up more and rebooted a couple times and doesn't say anything about an update anymore. *Shrug*

Whoever sees it next should open up a terminal or adb in and go into /cache and pull out a copy of the zipfile that's there to see what it is.

The market doesn't typically update like this. I think the market has its own method of updating...can't remember what the process is to force one.

EA28 OTA

I just activated my girlfriend's phone and immediately it prompted for update, so I did. To my surprise it was not DL09, but instead EA28. So after some google searches I found this:
http://phandroid.com/2011/02/03/samsung-fascinates-ea28-update-coming-to-fix-emergency-calling-bug/

The site is basically right, they repackaged dl09 with the emergency calling bugfix and pushed it out with a new build number.

just got mine... I'm gonna have a seizure in a public place to test it out.

Does any one know if one click root will work with this update

It worked for me on DL09 and this isn't that much different so I'd say yes.

One Click root works just fine! Just completed root!

I believe I was able to root successfully but when I try to flash ClockwordMod, it doesn't seem to be working. ROM manager says its flashed and has the latest version, but when I boot into recovery it is definitely not ClockwordMod. I cannot do backups or choose a file from SD to install.

When you flash a new ROM it overwrites CWM, so you'll have to re-install it with Odin.

Update broke my phone!
I just saw a screen forcing the update upon my phone. I clicked "OK" but when the EA28 update installed itself on my phone, it locked my phone into a cycle of trying to install it again and again. The baseband version shows S:i500.04 V.EA28, the Build number shows SCH-I500.EA28, but the update keeps trying to install the update. It gives a Prompt to Install-Reboots Phone-Prompt to Install-Reboot Phone... I managed to get it to stop for a little while by scheduling a deferral of the update until tomorrow. Does anyone know how I can keep the update from trying to install?

Yeah I just went to ask if there is an update and it said yes. Afraid to update because who knows if it'll break root....

I managed to get my phone to stop rebooting every 3 minutes by ending the InnoPath Active Care process and clearing the cache. But when I woke up this morning, the phone was at the emergency recovery screen. It went into a cycle of rebooting that made it as far as media scanner. I got it to stop rebooting by turning ON wifi (I suppose that's because Active Care needs WiFi off to do an OTA). Does anyone have any suggestions on how to stop this "Feature" that is rebooting my phone?

You tried pulling the battery (soft reset) i presume? After that theres factory rest, then odin back to stock

4.1.57 ota is live- OP UPDATED with directioin for root

i just connected to a wifi... went to settings, system update, and the msg DOWNLOAD came up....its doing it as i type!
UPDATE: OTA is LIVE....... AND THERE IS A ROOT FOR IT
you have to flash the 4.1.26 SBF file
root with super one click
reboot phone
enable sideloading...click allow on your phone ( su menu)
reboot
run aROOT
reboot
then go here

download the script
run the " beforeupdate script...do what it says,
after its done... run the update, install it, reboot it
when its rebooted, wait about 3 minutes + and make sure debugging is still on
then run afterupdate
and run the command via ADB
reboot... and BAM... 4.1.57 sideloaded and ROOTED

I would install it, but i don't feel it's worth losing root/mods over.

Thanks also got download message when connecting to WIFI.

That's weird I've been on wifi all day and haven't seen a thing. I won't do it either way, I like ginger blur RC1.

Yeah... I hope I don't get the message. For now. Waiting on root.

me too has received the update .... i dont see much change except for the change that screen turns off when plugged on to power source... i think most of changes are backend..

You have to go to settings >about phone>System Updates to force the message ... I know you said you dont want it anyways but just in case someone else was wandering...
Also, I was really getting annoyed with the fingerprint scanner but I have to say the update did it wonders so far.

It's easy to block the update if you don't want to lose root and also want to get rid of the annoying messages.
Just rename the otacerts.zip and cacerts.bks certs in system/etc/security.
The update will download (you must let it download), but fail the auth check and not install.
This also turns off the reminder notifications.
Easily reversible if you want to get updates later.

my phone keeps telling me I am up to date. I haven't gotten the message yet.

How long is the update supposed to take? I've been staring at the triangle "!" sign next to little green Android dude for a while now.
Edit: Disregard.. Pressing a key took me to the recovery menu, where it said signature verification failed. Hmm.

I have a feeling the patch doesn't like what I've done with TiBu.. Defrosting all frozen bloat then trying again.

There may be a problem with mine. The update downloads fine, but when it goes into recovery, it fails signature check. Phone boots up and works just fine upon reboot. I'm gonna redownload and try again.

No ICS OTA For Me

View attachment 923053so here's my story;
i rooted my transformer a while back and was messin around with nvflash and got it semi-bricked, so i flashed the nvflash stock rom and it saved my ass. so i stayed on stock unrooted for a while (it's been about a month), but i was on a previous firmware, i think 8.5.6.19, so i headed over to asus's download website, got the .21 firmware and updated my tab to that about a week ago.. so im on 8.6.5.21, US sku tf101 (NOT tf101g). Any thoughts to why i haven't recieved a notification to update to ICS? i rebooted, fully discharged and recharged, and checked the forums... plus Ive been mashing the "check update" button for two days now....... -_- if anyone has a non-root solution, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Do you have CWM Recovery (or non-stock recovery) installed? This will block OTA updates.
Beyond that, try going to Settings - Apps - Manage - All - DMClient - Force Close then Clear Data. Repeat for CMClient.
Reboot.
Check for updates.

I'm on completely stock rom, and the recovery is stock as well (i used it to install the update from asus's website.)
I tried your suggestion about clearing Dmclient and Cmclient data after they were force closed. after i rebooted, i waited about 30 seconds then went to check for update and im still getting the "there is no update available for your device currently" message
Anything else i should try?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium

Since you can NVflash, suggest you root your device and nvflash CWM. Then install the ICS update floating around through CWM.

You need to do a cold reboot instead of just reboot. You also need to delete the cache for dmclient and cmclient, not just data.
Force stop DMClient, Clear data, Clear cache
Force stop CMClient, Clear data, Clear cache
COLD REBOOT. You do this by powering off your TF(also unplug your power/usb cable) and then starting it up by holding down [volume down] and [power] together. Keep the buttons pressed for at least 6 seconds. Then you will see 2 icons in the center of screen. The right icon is cold reboot and is selected by default. Wait 10 seconds and it will start cold boot automatically.
Check for update.

I think someone mentioned on the forum that ASUS pulled out ICS from the servers - until reboot issue is fixed.

The issue isn't whether or not it's "logical," the issue is whether or not it's true. Which it's not.

I have the same problem, .. not OTA ICS love
stock of course
interestingly enough, 2 of my friends got it yesterday, .. but when i tried today, "no update available"
I tried the following
- Cold boot
- C and D clients force close and clear cache + cold boot
- Factory Reset
nothing worked, .. it is as if there is no update what so ever.
guess will have to wait and see, no rush.
if anyone have some suggestions though, throw em at me
cheers

Well no offense but there is a quick and easy method and thats to NVFlash CWM and manually flash it... or sit and wait your turn.
I don't know why people are so afraid to have a "rooted" device. All it does it gives you admin rights to perform tasks typically not allowed to the stock user account. It's like logging on as Administrator to your Windows machine.
The ICS OTA flashable rom running around IS COMPLETELY STOCK with the exception that the user account has admin rights (ie "rooted").
The only MAIN reason to stay completely stock is to get OTA updates first... but as you see this isn't the case. The OTA may not even be available for your area yet. Custom roms only DISABLE the OTA check because it can unroot your phone and cause incompatibilities.
ClockWorkMod also is just a custom recovery which allows for full backup/restoration of your system. CWM is worth nvflashing JUST for that reason alone.

i had wiped everything for both clients and had already tried a coldboot and factory reset (from recovery) and still no update.
Of course the easy route would be to root, as i did before, but im actually just wondering why i haven't recieved the update at all... if it isnt resolved in the next 24 hours, ill just root and flash the stock rooted firmware. thanks for the help guys!

so i called asus and they said some of the tablets wouldnt get the update yet but that it was definitely on the way. he said that i should wait at least a week...
another thing, he said nothing about asus pulling the update from the server, and was pretty clear that the update was being sent out to the tablets, some were just slower to receive the update

[Q] [HELP] Download again Android 4.3 via OTA

Hi to everyone,
I downloaded Android 4.3 via OTA but I didn't install it immediately. After some days by mistake I cleared all the data in the Cache, so I couldn't install it because I lost the data.
I tried to clear the data in google service framework process after I checked for the updates but my phone says the system is up to date even if I have the 4.2 installed on it. How can I download the 4.3 update again in the simplest way?

hahahahaha Legally? you act like rooting is going to get you thrown in jail.... LOL, well I have never done it "legally" as you say but I would assume there are directions in the link or on the web. Probably download zip to phone and there should be an update.zip option to use in stock recovery. OTA wont delete anything you have on your phone but ya know if you rooted it you would be able to nandroid all of that.
The pros of rooting out way any con you could possibly have but hey its your phone so enjoy. Also 4.3 stock is not exactly a major upgrade that you will notice but hopefully it fixes something you may have had an issue with on 4.2.2
