Fixed!!!!! I used Brks Asus transformer rootkit script to root which installs an insecure bootimage to work and this is what caused the problem, I just plugged my trandormer in and restored my original files then the update went on fine first try!!!! Thanks for the help!!!!

Did you install Clemsyn/Blades OC kernel? More than likely this is causing your problem.......

I'm getting the same error. Running 3.2 stock but rooted, no modified kernel. Only thing I modified was the Netflix patch which doesn't seem like it's needed now. Is there a flash able zip for this new update?

You can't update the normal way after rooting.

Actually, thats not true. I was running on stock 8.6.5.6 rooted, and was able to update sucessfully. I verified the update in the settings. I have also verified with root checker that i am no longer rooted, as i was before the update. I bought my transformer only a few weeks ago. It came with 3.1 and i updated to 3.2 before rooting. Wonder if that or the rooting method has something to do with why i was able to update while rooted.

I rooted using the method in this thread:

Same happened to me. As I understand it just rooting doesn't prevent future OTA updates, hence why I was prompted to download this latest, but why it now after failing it tells me there is no longer an update available is beyond me. I can only think ASUS has pulled it for some reason.

You only get it offered the once. Your device is then marked as updated at Asus end. If it didn't work because you were rooted, then tough...

Hmm interesting.
Which method did you use to root it?
Maybe we can pin point why the updates are failing for some people after rooting. I would like to root mine if it was 100% that the OTA updates would still work, even if I had to root it again after each one.

I'm having problems with OTA updates and have used Brk's ASUS Transformer HC3.2 RootKit Script to root my device.
I probably did something very stupid...in which I factory reset the device, but noticed that "superuser" is still installed in the apps list. I'm wondering now if i have to re root the device to uninstall superuser and then do another factory reset and then see if the OTA update works? suggestions appreciated

I always look at the updater script in the package before I update. This script contains a bunch of asserts that check the integrity of certain files before it will apply the update. If you can get the update package just open " \META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script" with notepad and that will show everything that's happening when the update occurs including the file asserts it makes. If you've modified these files then it will not update. 8.6.5.6 initially didn't work for me but by checking the script I found the problem was my srs_processing.cfg file because I tried to fix my speaker balance and this was a file that the script asserted. After restoring the original file I was able to update with stock recovery even though I had modified other system files. As long as the specific files the update checks are ok the update will proceed.

You need to UnRoot it, I don't think factory reset makes any difference to rooting

The above post about altering certain files appears it might have something to do with it. I rooted using this method... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1198303
But it was V2 when i used it. It is now currently V4.

You can re-download the update if you clear your DMClient cache.
Follow the instructions in this thread.

I had the error with the Android + exclamation mark so I unrooted (reflashed both the stock ROM AND the stock recovery - to get rid of clockworkmod) then cleared the DMClient cache and was I able to update OTA.

As far as I am aware the OTA will not install if you have clockwork Mod flashed for recovery. But if you have rooted without flashing over stock recovery ie clockwork mod not installed the OTA should work but you will lose root by updating.

I tried flashing back original boot and recovery image, update still failed, and now it fota won't come back. Cleared DMClient cache and hard reset. Guess I'm out of luck until someone releases a flashable version of the update?

Same thing happened to me. Tried all the above, and can't get the update to come back.

Have any of you changed original system files whilst rooted? That's why it was failing for me. I managed to get the update again but it failed. I got it once more after it rebooted but took a copy first, unrooting made no difference. Unlike the downloadable firmwares from the ftp site which I checked out, the update script checks the integrity of a ton of files mainly the system apps that cannot be changed without root. If any have changed the script aborts.
Unfortunately even though I had backed up all of them with Titanium Backup, it wouldn't restore them and TB just hung. I tried all its options but nothing helped - a little worrying.
In the end I copied off the TB backup directory to a USB stick and used the NVflash recovery to restore back to factory. I then performed the upgrade again to both the tablet and dock without issues. Four hours later I have it almost back to where I want it.
Hope this helps some of you, even though it's not the best process, but the update imho is worth it

Make sure you have a backup in TWRP before running this as it does not take kindly to root. I had a "Shutdown" loop after installing on rooted device.

Could you please extract and post the Google Drive Apk?

I installed the update while rooted and now my phone is power cycling and I can't get it to stop. My fault for not unrooting, I know, but if anyone has insight on how to fix this, it'd be appreciated.

Well I unrooted by fxz save data then installed the pwnmymoto apk took the update and got root back all is normal but I can't access touchless control it wont allow me to check the box. google search works but not touchless control. Can we fxz back with this update or will it brick our phone.
Ok I unistalled and then updated the app but now I get to the training screen but it doesn't activate it's like it can't hear me.

You have to update it from the play store. I had that problem before the update. Could you tell me the exact process you used to root the update? I'm about to try and upgrade, but can't survive without root lol

I did an fxz save data with house of moto which restores to stock but keeps data. Then I re-installed pwnmymoto but did not run it. rebooted to recovery and installed the update from my sdcard. everything went fine but no touchless controls I installed the update and still it would not let me past the training screen. So I said **** it and installed the stock recovery did a factory reset and now I am good I will just juse the new root method.
If you use my method above when you reboot after the update pwnmymoto will automatically run and install root it cycles 3 times so don't worry you are not in a bootloop with it shutting on and off.

The adb root method? By jcase? I'm a little hesitant to use that one. Since I have no prior adb experience

Brilliant! Booted to system version 12.15.15. So...followed these directions to maintain root:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2466191
To apply the "OTA" I booted to stock recovery and updated from SD. This failed, but booted to 12.15.15.
Then in the above directions, used fastboot to install the new baseband from the modem drivers from another thread in this forum.

Just to help anyone out I am part of the soak test. If you try to update by hiding root and then flashing stock recover you will get error from trying to install from stock recovery or if you where able to do an ota it will fail. It will show afterwards that you are on the version but you are lacking some things. Anyways The way That I got everything to work without a single error including the baseband coming from the ota .
used fastboot to flash recovery back to stock recover . Flashed stock system to system in fastboot. After that then I installed that I backed up after download from verizon through stock recovery from sd card. after I came back online. I used adb and the RockMyMoto Root and walla everything good to go.
Hope this info helps some !!

I've downloaded it and placed it in cache but my phone still says it's up to date? Any thoughts?

It appears at least some things were updated. When I rebooted, I got the "moto camera" update from the market and when I check build number it is the 15.15.15 update so it looks like that went through. I'm just curious as to what "failed" and what made it through.

For those that failed halfway through, you most likely don't have the new baseband (95). You'll be unable to take future updates until you get everything squared away.

[Q] We see lots of OTA related problems, how do you disable OTA?

Today I had to restart my phone because it dropped data connection, the moment I restarted it said my phone was being updated and I should wait, it wasted my time and it shoved 10o update down my throat.
If I had recovery installed, this could have been disastrous, no?
Not only for recovery related problems, but this may also prevent people from being able to install certain things, or even one day in the future with a different update just block root?
How do we uninstall then disable OTA updates on an unrooted phone? When I disabled and cancelled notifications for Software Update app, I thought it was fixed, but it probably made it worse, it just installed without any notification or prompt.
I was planning to root and install twrp this weekend, now with all the horror stories I've been reading, I don't want to do it. :crying:
How is AT&T even allowed to push it without explicit permit to install on device.

I did that when I first got the notification. Notification disappeared. 2 days later I restarted my phone for the first time in over a week, and bam, it installed without any notification at all. So disabling notification won't stop it from installing, it seems..

I know this doesn't directly help your situation since you're not rooted but this should help someone who is.
I had to freeze "Software Update 2.3.0.5" using titanium backup for it to stop. Not sure of a way to do it without root or without the pro version of titanium.

What version of the G2 do you have? I'm on Sprint and I don't have "Software Update", I have "Update Device 4.5.1.10" which I just froze.
Does anyone know if I install the update can I still flash TWRP to my device? I'm not sure if I should install TWRP now and use the flashable ota zip or install it after I update it.

I'm asking the same question OP is asking, is there a way to disable the update on non-rooted phones? And from experience with several other Android phones... I know it's pretty much impossible to downgrade unless you start flashing, but I'm gonna ask anyways. Is there a way to downgrade the upgrade that was forced down OP's throat and my own throat? For me it actually updated in my sleep, I woke up and it said my phone was updated. OP and I are on AT&T's D800 variant.

Well, it would still help to avoid further OTA's from being applied if we are rooted and do not use custom rom, there is always a risk of getting OTA and messing everything up, therefore if freezing above app worked for you, it should be all we need. Is Software Update the actual app which checks for version and receives pushes from AT&T when a new OTA is available, or if there are other apps/modules that does this. The problem is, if it is incorporated into android system like some of the other stuff AT&T incorporated, it would be impossible to completely eliminate it without running a custom rom.

you have to flash the old version by using LG Flash Tool, like I did.

So, I have a question for you guys. I got my phone yesterday and I'm on 10o. I installed the CWM recovery for 10o via Flashify, and now I'm concerned about OTAs - I disabled it via the Hidden Menu, but if there's an OTA to update the phone to 4.3 or 4.4, I'd like to receive it and not worry about bricking my phone.
I don't plan on doing a lot of custom ROM flashing, I really just wanted to root and install Xposed. Do I need to flash a stock ROM and go back to stock recovery, so I don't have to worry about OTAs? Or should I be good with CWM and the stock ROM that I rooted?

Android 4.4.4 seen by OTA update on my GPE!

I have my AT&T HTC One converted to Google Play Edition since a while now, and I just saw the system update notification and see the 4.4.4 with just 17MB, I've downloaded and once it rebooted, something happened with the zip and cwm recovery, which gives me an error. I was too excited with the update to take note of the error, and since I rebooted again and check for a system update, it shows me my 4.4.3 as current.
I'm just notifying it.
I have no idea if this helps anyone.

OTA will fail on custom recovery. You should have flashed stock recovery and then took the OTA. Try erasing cache and flash stock recovery.

return to stock recovery, and see if you get the ota link,if you get, download and sideload it
or otherwise you need to wait till next batch of rollout (remember, google sends updates by baches till everyone gets)

or just flash it manually then in recovery !
http://www.randomphantasmagoria.com/firmware/htc-one/m7_google/

Side load it with stock recovery. If stock HTC recovery doesn't have sideload, you can flash it from your internal SD. No need to wait for a notification.

Delete downloaded OTA Fire HD 8 2017 5.4.0.1

I just picked up a refurb HD 8, and it's got 5.4.0.1 software installed. I don't want to update any further, but as soon as I got online it downloaded the OTA, and says that it will update when I'm not using the tablet. So I've kept using it to stop that from happening, but I'd really like to just delete the OTA file and block it from downloading again, but I've got no idea how to, and I'm afraid it'll update on me before I can figure it out. Any help?

I just picked up a refurb HD 8, and it's got 5.4.0.1 software installed. I don't want to update any further, but as soon as I got online it downloaded the OTA, and says that it will update when I'm not using the tablet.

The best you can do is use a firewall. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77062644&postcount=10

Thank you, I have installed the firewall, but the ota download always completes before I can get it installed and set up. What do I lose by updating to the latest version? What do I gain?

Right now, you don't lose anything. You are literally .1 too high to benefit from the disabling of system apps. You can't downgrade. Since there is no root or other method to disable apps, the choice is yours.
