Hi there, fellow android users !
So here is my problem: Yesterday my phone downloaded the kit kat update and tried to install it, but at about 70% i got an error so after about 5 minutes of waiting i just turned it off then on again, but now when i click on "check for update" it says it's up to date and yet i'm at 4.3.
So i tried sideloading it but i got "error in /tmp/update.zip(status7) update aborded", is there anything i can do to fix this and get 4.4 (i'm willing to wipe everything on my phone ?
Thank you !
Solution.

So basicly unlock your bootloader and flash KK factory image available from google dev site. There are tons of videos like this on YouTube.
Thank you!

Hey guys!
I have the international version of I9023 and I just got the official OTA update of ICS some 10 minutes back.
guys please help me
I just got it also finally and it downloaded 100% and when it was supposed to reboot it acted like I pressed back or home, so it didn't reboot/install and the update dissapeared.
So it says the system is updated.
I dont want to wait for days again!!!!!! please help

What is your version Rom now in your Nexus S? ..and this version is officiale or it's a custom Rom ?
You must have official v2.3.6 installed on the phone ....after that you can update your Nexus with ICS 4.0.3...

LINK??????
Got the exact same issue (just posted in that big 165 page thread). i9023, stock as bought, no root. system still says 2.3.6 and manual reboot still does nothing but boot into GB as normal
Same issue in my spanish stock version!
I received the notification for the OTA update yesterday evening, downloaded the update but wasn’t able to install it because I didn’t had enough battery left.
I charged the phone during the night and was hoping to install the update this morning but I can’t find it anymore.
If I go to “About phone”/“System updates” it says the phone is up to date.
I have a carrier-free i9023 with stock 2.3.6 and live in Switzerland.
does anybody know how to install the update?
thx

Hungarian too, with an i9023. Using official ICS since 16 dec. So that's not the problem. But if you are in hurry, and have 30 minutes, you can install CWM recovery and reinstall the 2.3.6, after a few minutes it'll ask you to update to 4.0
After update you will get back the stock recovery, you can even relock the bootloader if you wish, so everything will be stock, and official, and untouched. Look for root infos on nexus s general threads, also you will find the 2.3.6 ROM there ([REF] ALL Nexus S OTA Updates for ALL Variants, Plus Full ROM Packages)
Yesterday I received the update notification, but I was not home and I could not update, and after a few hours notification disappears :-(
How can I get the notification again?
I hastily went for the latest update provided by Telus May 17th 2014 and everything said it worked but my wifi doesn't work (can't turn it on) the button just reverts immediately back to off. I could sure use a little help from the Gurus here on xda developers. I should say that the system was rooted and knox was disabled. I lost root as always after the update but was able to redo it and have it again.System still reports that it is 4.4.2 which it was before the update.

Try to download the firmware again on Sammobile and install that manually, can also try to flash model through recovery might help.

5.0.1
Prevent factory reset for short passwords in CryptKeeper
Since patterns and passwords can't be shorter than 4 elements, we shouldn't count them against attempts to unlock the device. If we do, we risk resetting the device due to stray input.

does TowelRoot - one click root - work for 5.0.1 or did they patch the exploit?

Yep.
Gah, 5.01 is out and I am still waiting for Lollipop on my LTE model. ?
I wasn't getting the OTA update for 5.0.1 but had already flashed 5.0 myself. Still running stock unrooted.
This AM I unlocked my bootloader which wipes the system. During the initial set up after wiping it updated me to 5.0.1 OTA.
Just a heads up.
I'm puzzled.
Even though I had the Google SystemUpdateService$Receiver disabled, I just received the OTA update for 5.0.1 on my 2013 N7.
My device is rooted. What will happen if I choose to install the update? Will I lose root? Will I have to reinstall my apps?
I'm quite satisfied with 4.4.4 and feel no real need to upgrade.
My N7 wifi still hasn't received plain old 5.0 and you guys are getting 5.0.1 already? ugh...

You won't get 5.0. You will get 5.0.1. They stopped 5.0 because of an issue, 5.0.1 is the official update. It will take weeks for everyone to get it.

Ok so I received the OTA update for lollipop for my s4 from at&t and after downloading it numerous times it would only fail during install. Eventually it went beyond 25% and went to a black screen for 15 minutes. I pulled the battery as it was unresponsive and after rebooting my wifi wont even turn on anymore. I have the ucugoc3 baseband which is for 5.0.1 I believe but it says that I'm still on 4.4.4 android version. I am somewhat savy when it comes to smartphones as I have experience with rooting htc and galaxy phones but I as well as my local att store could not get the new update to flash. It always gives an error at 25% during install. Phone was rooted before ota came along and I unrooted using SuperSU before attempting the OTA installation. What can I do? My phone is useless to me without wifi. Thanks!

You may have to odin restore to NB1.
That didn't work either.

Hey everyone, I am having an issue where my phone will not update to the 1.1.2 even when I have removed magisk and also disabled all modules. I am on the GL version and have not found an OTA update to sideload as of yet only the EEA version. Any ideas? I reallt want to update so I can root 1.1.2 but obviously at this point I have no access to the OTA. The error is "Installation will continue when device isn't being used. To install now, tap Resume." I press resume then it says Installation problem. Any help is greatly appreciated.
