at least you are getting something OTA
Ditto
Unfortunately, I get the same thing. I was rooted, but I unrooted (not quite as thoroughly as you did, as I only used the "Unroot" option, but we got the same results). Wonder if it is something wrong with the update...

Did you change ANYTHING when rooted? Did you freeze, rename, modify or delete ANY of the files in the original ROM in any way, shape or form?
Same thing here
When I bought this device 3 weeks ago, I rooted it with z4root. Not too long after an update disabled z4root on the tablet.
I thought no big deal, but then today comes and I the OTA update won't work.
Anyone more experienced than me have any ideas of how to get this update applied properly?
Me too. Update failed to install. Not sure why. I have also tried unrooting.

I'm confused, if I froze an application, didn't unfreeze it but did a factory reset...wouldn't that resolve the issue?
ok so i woke up this morning and my a500 notified me the there was an update available so as you can imagine I was very happy to finally have this, so i updated and when it was done it said update successuful but when I checked it still said 3.01......WTF
Not rooted ever..
Those interested in getting back their OTA, properly backing up their original ROMS or restoring them, please follow the tutorials in this thread:
Going back to stock TUTORIAL
Be helpful and provide your firmware if you have a backup so we can build a database for those who don't.
Be sure to report what is working and what is not working for you once you've tried the tutorials!
Unlike the 14 threads on these matter I take the responsibility as OP to upgrade my original post as firmwares and new info becomes available.
Let's create a focused troubleshooting and tutorial thread,
Thanks.
I'm rooted via gingerbreak and the update worked fine while still rooted. It did break root. Just had to re-apply gingerbreak and all is good, back to root with latest update.
gingerbreak worked with official 3.1 ?
it didn't work with 'leaked' 3.1 ?
OTA
Ok after long night and hours of research i found out a lot.
1 if you have modded ad hoc in wpa_supplicant file recover the original file
2 if you have modded the phone.apk and telephoneyprovider.apk to save battery this is the reason why you won't get the update.
i put these files back and instantly got an update, i mean the exact second i set those back
i can't believe this my updates keep failing to install. FING POS i tried everything, factory reset
i have tried everything, even factory reset, it fails while installing after reboot
acer support are a bunch of retards, they don't even know they sell tablets????????
need help i can't upgrade, it fails every time
does anyone know where the install logs are
the log is \cache\recovery\last-log
Oklahoma City, OK noon CST
First attempt failed:
Changed the wpa_supplicant back to original and all went smooth the second time
I never changed anything and it failed.
**Edit: I rebooted my devices and left it completely alone after unzip and it rebooted into recovery mode and seems to be installing **
I had the same problem, It was pretty disheartening.... but I unrooted my device, re-booted and tried again and SUCCESS!!!
But now I can't get it to re-root using gingerbreak... HELP!
SUCCESS!
Ok. I got OTA update 4.010.08 (122.71 MB) this morning. It failed.
So I unrooted my device. Re-started it and tried again... SUCCESS!
I tried using Gingerbreak to root it again. FAIL!
So I used this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1138228
SUCCESS!
Hope this helps those of you who are having problems.
No need to unroot nor go to stock.
I had the same issues. Then I simply used Acer Recovery to install stock recovery and everything worked fine.
Ceger
Acer Recovery?
Did Acer Recovery come with the tablet?
I tried the update numerous times over the last 4 days. Most of the time the download would fail, which I put down to my slow internet connection and overloaded Acer servers. But about 5 times it would finish downloading and then error out on install with a message about the update being invalid. I tried rebooting several times during this process. I have never rooted the tablet and only have a few apps installed as it was a recent purchase.
Finally it worked when I ejected the external SD card and rebooted. It may be a coincidence, but anyone else who gets the "invalid update" warning during install on an unrooted device may wish to try this prior to the download/install.
Hello,
I received my "update available" alert on the way to a meeting and I told it to install. It then rebooted and has been sitting on the SAMSUNG screen for over 20 minutes.
I was running mostly-stock Froyo--everything was stock except I had the CWM recovery installed and rooted/su so I could do system backups.
Does it normally take this long? If not, did the update hang because of CWM or rooted, and if so, what should I do to resolve the issue?
Thank you for your time.

Hey. I'm currently on a 4.4 stock I manually flashed, I'm not rooted.
I get a message from the nexus saying update 4.4.2 is available, I click to download and install - once I press to start installing, it restarts and goes to recovery, it says the file is untrusted and asks me if I'm sure I want to flash it (so that's weird in and of itself), then when I choose to flash it it is giving me an error saying something about status 7. Then when I reboot the phone I'm still 4.4 and once in a few days I get the update notification again. Anyone has a clue of what's going on and how can I update?

Not sure this will help, but it might point you in the right direction.

As it states I received the security update Ota notification a few days back, went ahead and let android do its thing to update. Then about a half hour later it asks me again. I've don't that update at least 7 times and it still prompts me.
I haven't rooted or even unlocked my bootloader, as stock ad the day it was born. Does anyone have a suggestion?
Mine keeps saying error when it reboots and tries to flash the update but I'm running stock without root or anything just unlocked bootloader

The constant notification is annoying. I know I can keep Google Services from showing them but it would be nice to keep for future updates.
Nobody else care to chime in? Never had OTA fail before on stock rom with no root or custom recovery.
Will probably have to sideload and see how that goes
Just got the OTA update for nougat, every time I go to install it my phone crashes and switches off.
Anyone else having this problem?
Also, how to I flash stock recovery, I think it's to do with that STUPID twrp recovery that doesn't even work.

You need to flash back stock recovery. You can NOT update OTA updates when you have TWRP, it will crash, just what happened to you.
Use SPFT and flash back stock recovery for the current rom you are on. You can extract it from the scatter file. (If you don't know what that is, GOOGLE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Btw I would avoid the update for now. It's buggy to say the least and you will loose fast charging.
Yea this OTA still needs improvement. Fast charging gone, fingerprint STILL not working, battery drain. Practically, latest Marshmallow is better then this OTA.I regret upgrading. If you gonna need downgrade use SPFT, their is a simple guide in umi community.
I did install iit and now I can not phone out or receive a call on Bluetooth phone Buzzzes loudly and the net work closes out, I use the bluetooth because of my hearing aids as the volume of the UMI super isn't very loud. I don't know how to fix this short of resetting back to origional except that way I loose all my info and have to start again. waiting for an answer.
