[Q] Updating to 4.3 - signature verification failed? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

I'm on 4.2.2 at the moment. The phone is rooted. CWM v6.0.4.4
Every now and then the phone reminds me to install the update. When I attempt, I just get:
E: Invalid command argument
Finding...
Opening...
Verifying...
E: Failed to verify whole-file signature
E: Signature verification failed
Even if I press 'Yes - install untrusted zip', I just get a few messages that I can't read, and then "Installation aborted" and phone restarts.
I did some googling and the only thing I found was something about it being unable due to the phone being rooted. And to manually update with signature verification off, but then it didn't really explain how to go about that.
Could anyone help me out here? If possible I'd like to get it to work without having to change too much.

You have to be on stock to accept any OTA's, it's the reason its failing. What I recommend that you do is download the official MJA Tar and use Odin, you can try this link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47359331

Can't update my phone.

Hello!
When I try to update my phone to 1.37.405.1 (I recently restored my phone to the original ROM using a nandroid backup)
I get an error message. The download goes fine and then it reboots and it begins to install the update. But half way through I get a message that says "Installation aborted". It also says "E: failed to verify whole-file signature" and "E: signature verification failed.
Anyone know what's wrong?
The phone is the root with unrevoked.
Sincerely,
Kaangaaas

I fixed this issue and get the newest version by installing older supported version then installing the newest version i hope this thread will help someone
