Getting error as I try to download update... - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey there, when I try installing the update, I'm greeted with an error midway through, and it resets
I tried installing it on wifi, and plugged into a charger, and still nothing.
I should note that the phone is rooted, though.

If you're rooted then OTA updates will download but will not install. You will need to use KIES or grab from Sammobile.

Here is an even better advice, If you have any build earlier than MJ6. STAY ON IT! New firmwares have TERRIBLE battery. Cheers

update didnt take?

I'm using a stock ROM I flashed through Odin a while back after bouncing around some different custom ROMs. I have OCLF installed. I got the notification for the update, chose to install, within 5 seconds my phone rebooted but nothing changed. I still have the same software. If I check for updates I get the no firmware message again. What am I supposed to do to get the update?
Just flash the update via oden. Thats what I did. I got tired of waiting.
You're supposed to look for the change in the baseband version, should read something like T959UVJ16. This isn't a firmware change, just an update.....
Mine did the same thing and my baseband shows the above. I've heard Media Hub works after the update, which mine doesn't, and I don't see task manager anywhere.
I have UVJI5 update installed from Kies, is it possible to flash this update over it.

My baseband hasn't changed. Still JFD.

so is my device bricked? P5113

well the title says it all
but let me explain further
so ive been running cm10.1 on my galaxy tab 10.1 the P5113 model to be exact and ive been running the ICS bootloader and then on the cm10.2 thread i saw the JB bootloaders and decided to flash the P5110 bootloader......then everything hit the wall and pretty much broke D:
so then i wanted to try a few JB roms but upon rebooting to system on a lot of ROMs my tablet will just sit there at the device slash screen longer than usual then it will turn to a full screen of pink/green and a few other colored lines and just sits there ._. is it bricked? i hope not D:
what do i do? ive tried using ODIN to reflash stock to the JB firmware the same thing happens D: it seems that my device was fine on the ICS bootloader but ever since that update its been like this D: please help
have you tried kies? if not do this, BEFORE CONNECTING tablet TO PC start kies, go to upgrade and initialisation. enter your tablets model number and serial number. put tablet in download mode, NOW CONNECT tablet TO PC. this should force kies to upgrade your firmware
did that work?
A friend of me had same problem he solved it by going back to stock (rom & Kernel ) then he did a ota update and when the tablet said that update was ok he rebooted and he installed cwm and cleared cache and dalvic cashe and problem was solved
I actually got got running because it wouldnt boot even on an official stock firmware but for some reason it booted up after I went into the stock samsung recovery and wiped data factory reset so idk

Factory reset is always the best initial move after flashing and getting a bootloop. When people panick and start flashing other things it drains the battery and corrupts files making i even harder to boot when a factory reset usually is all that is needed to fix a bootloop after a flash

[Q] Nexus 7 2013 Lollipop update, downloaded but no update.

Hi All,
On Tuesday i downloaded the OTA after getting the notification. The download completed but update paused because of low power. I plugged the Nexus into the mains and went to bed. In the morning i found that the 7 had not updated........any idea? My Nexus 5 updated no problem and i LIKE it.....A LOT!
John.
Are you rooted?
Same thing happened to my daughters 7. Update downloaded plugged in to let it charge up, came back and the update was gone, and tablet shows no system updates are available.
Similar happened to me. I got notification about update available. I downloaded the update successfully, confirmed to reboot and install the update but nothing happened after reboot. Update not installed. When I check for update now it shows that it's up to date... I'm running on completely stock ROMs only since beginning, installing OTA updates only as they come...

100% stock unrooted and unmodified (SO's tablet), downloaded and rebooted and no L - boo
- Clearing the device cache might help. The OTA is usually stored there so that would delete any partial or full downloads, and might restart the whole process.
- You could always sideload the OTA from your computer. The option is in the stock recovery mentioned in the link above. Just Google how. And you don't need to be rooted for that.
- You might consider waiting for the next update. A lot of users are complaining about performance of 5.0, especially on 2012 model. Personally mine runs great. First couple of days had a bit of lag but now it's as smooth as it was on 4.4.4
Rooted Nexus 4 Lollipop Update

[Q] Diminished Storage Capacity and other update issues

Hello all.
I have an SGH-I337 and I am having some issues as of late.
The phone would not complete an update to the latest (4.4.4) OTA... and that's when my issues began.
I acquired this phone from a family member that got themselves an LG-G3. The power button was broken (would reboot constantly) and the card reader was busted. Nothing that $50 didn't fix... so after that, I received the phone and towel rooted. Decided to keep the phone stock so I could use it for work and leave my personal Nokia 1520 out of my work related tasks... so I removed Towel Root, and did OTA to NI1... but when the new one came in, the OTA would stop at 25% and reboot. On reboot, the phone would display the custom screen with the unlocked padlock... so I thought maybe the root/safestrap was not removed properly... so I decide to give it the Odin treatment.
First try, it stopped at writing.
Second try, more errors at the beginning, I can't recall them.
Third try, Odin stops at writing again.
So, I download Kies in hopes of using emergency restore... to no avail. Kies would simply lock up and tell me the phone was incompatible. I downloaded the previous version and no go. I then tried Odin just for S and Gs... and this time, it did work. I successfully installed . I337UCUFNB1_4.4_Stock_Odin_tar from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2674223
Now, the phone reports only (and exactly) 16.00GB total storage available... and it STILL won't accept OTA updates. If it helps, which I don't think so, I am using Google Now launcher, and UCCW apps for customization, nothing else.
Help? How can I get the rest of my storage back and be able to get OTAs for when the STOCK Lollipop comes in?
I would Odin nb1 again them do a factory reset and clear cache right afterwards. Hopefully that'll get the storage correct.

Have you tried it yet? What do you think of it?

i've been trying for hours to get my updated downloaded. at least six times in the past 18 hours. i kept getting the "update failed error 404" response. what finally worked was somewhere between attempting to re-download the update in safe mode, and also clearing the cache. my phone apparently force rebooted itself on its own and when i tried again (at 5:15 a.m. CST) the update installed.
Guys this version has Greek language?or any other way to add Greek language?
6.0.1 Update for Verizon Note Edge
I had the issue with this update erroring every time I tried the OTA (4 times). What I did is hook up to my computer and back up my important stuff, then factory reset. First thing I did after that is hook up to wifi and run the check for system update. Downloaded and installed, worked on first try, and runs clean and smooth on mine. Hope this helps someone
Resetting worked for me. But I'm still having issues even after a clean install. I still get unfortunately blah blah blah and soft restarts which ask for your password instead of my fingerprint. Anyone else?

What worked for me was turning off network time. I kept getting error 404 until I manually set my phone's time to the current time.
These soft reboots are so annoying. I have it happen while using waze,after a phone call, it's so random. We wait about a year for an update to get a buggy rom,nice
