[Q] Help.. Verification failed with OTA update - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I finally managed to put a htc hero recovery rom on my HTC Hero (Orange/Mobistar branded). I did this because the latest Orange/Mobistar rom doesn't support the OTA updates.. I frankly don't know why my device is Orange/Mobistar branded, since there is nothing Orange/Mobistar about it, except for the packing box. And the vendor ensured me it was an official unlocked release. Only, the HTC website doesn't share the same idea when I put in my serial number.
I succeeded to upgrade my hero with the generic rom needed for the OTA updates and I finally got the OTA message to update my phone. But when I choose install and the device restarts, I receive the following error:
Code:
RA-hero-1.7.0.1
verifying update package
no signature (216 files)
verification failed
I searched google and this forum, but the only solution I found was to install the orange branded rom, which doesn't support OTA updates, nor android 2.
Anyone knows a solution?
Thanks!

Official, international ROM, latest version and unbranded

Hello all,
I purchaed a Galaxy S3 on launch day in Australia and got an outright, full unlocked one.
Unfortunately it was still BRANDED though as the seller omitted that information
Does anyone know which is the best ROM I can flash to have a complete stock and uptodate version of the S3 OS?
Also, is it possible for the phone to still check OTA for updates with one of these ROMS or not?
The Optus ROM I have keeps trying to update a 22mb update and it's annoying because it actually refuses to flash
I keep getting a 22mb system update coming down over wifi which doesn't install.
E: Invalid command argument
Finding update package
Opening update package
Verifying update package
E: failed to verify whole-file signature
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
Anyone know what to load on?

[Q]Need help update to R5A

Hi,
I've got one Tablet S1(with 3G) one year ago. (I come from China mainland.)
Considering China version firmwares do not include GApps but I DO need the stuff like play store, contact sync, etc, I change the region code to UK.
Then, I made it updated to R2 and rooted via AIO tool by condi:good::good::goodTHANK YOU!)
Now, I want the R5A update. I've downloaded several 3G version stock firmwares but failed to install them.
Everytime the tablet reboots to the recovery attempting to install the update, the whole will be aborted after the verification.
And, it shows "Erohibit update as a result of checking version or base sku" each time.
I've made multiple tries, and failed every time.
Never make it via OTA, AIO tool or flasher by condi. All failed.
Not even I changed the region to China(what it was initially).
What do I do to make an successful update?
P.S. I used to apply something like "hack recovery" or what from the AIO tool, would it break the recovery?

Please try to install UK, then use adb pull /tmp/recovery.log and post here
Probably failing as there are two systems one is UK and the other is Chinese. Using flasher should change both partitions to Poland 3G (i think that is the one)

[Q] HELP! Need 4.4 copy of system/customize/ACC/default.xml

Need some help please!
I successfully updated my AT&T HTC One to 4.4. Trying to get wireless tether patched, I flashed the "system/customize/ACC/default.xml" from android 4.3. Now the phone has constant errors after booting (dialer stopped working). :crying:
I have tried to flash back with RRU to 4.3 but keep getting error 155. Trying to re-install the 4.4 OTA package fails validation and quits. I have tried both options with bootloader locked, unlocked, re-locked, etc. with no success.
The file in the OTA package seems to be compressed (?) since it is binary (actual file name is "default.xml.p"). Does anyone know how to extract it from the OTA package?
Can someone please attach a copy of the original "default.xml" after upgrading to 4.4?
Thank you
Adrian

Can't update firmware, please help

Hi all,
I'm trying to update firmware on my Droid DNA. Currently I have firmware version 2.08.605.1, the latest before the last OTA update. Now i want to use RUU to try to update to version 3.06.605.4. It fails with error that I got wrong RUU, but I'm positive it is a correct one, because it shows firmware version. OTA updates are not working, showing me no updates. However, under Software update -> Status I see that the update was rejected by user some time ago. As far as I know there must be an option to install rejected updates, but it simply isn't there. Not sure what to do next. Please, help.

Nevermind now, I resolved the issue by first gaining s-off and then using the alternative method for firmware flash by using adb and fastboot in cle that can be found here on forums easily (latest ota for DNA).
