There are many other posts on this. However, I will try to help. At what point does it get to before it errors out? Is it at the Android guy with progress bar then an exclamation mark, a reboot, and then message saying it failed? Please give more info.
Yup it starts out with the open box ti show peogress and then goes to exclamation mark, reboots say update failed, i am rooted trying to go to 4.3.6 build 198_6 from 4.3.5 build 198_5

Ok...most likely it is failing the MD5 check. Have you removed any apps? When it gets to the Android guy and progress bar hold down both volume buttons at same time and it will tell you what is causing the issue. If it shows an apk in the error than it either can't find or verify the app. Post back to get more help if needed.
The webtop hdmi hack breaks the upgrade. If you've done that move the original .apk and .odex files back and it will upgrade.
Been there, had it happen to me.

I'm on 4.2.7 locked and unrooted. (4.2.7 OTA unrooted me, and haven't bothered to root again).
I get the same "up to date" message. With past OTA's, it takes a few days sometime before you can manually find and do it. Don't worry.

umm its normal for it to show the android guy with the ! with int he triangle. jsut let it install and get root again with ginger break. let it finish do not interrupt it while it is updating. let it reboot by it self.
There are numerous threads in development that tell you how to flash to the 1.57 sbf file. Then I went to the motorola website and did the update to 1.83 from there.

I'm still not getting the 1.8.3 update. When I check, it says "Check for update was not available at this time. Try again later."
Is this normal, because they're still doling it out? Or is there a problem?
The message makes it sound like the update service itself was not found, not that there was no update found.
I haven't done anything more radical than root my phone, so I wouldn't think there would be an issue.
If you don't get an OTA notification try this:

Ok, so last night my phone downloaded the update (guessing Gingerbread). I'm still running 2.2.1 on my Thunderbolt, as I was out of the country for the past few months. I caught the phone before it completed the installation and thought that if I removed the PG05IMG.zip file from the sd card, that would prevent it from being able to install the update. I turned the phone back on and it began to attempt to install the update again. I would like to flash a new ROM to the phone (as I was simply rooted without a custom ROM before) so that I am running 2.3+ but I don't want to have to re-root the phone. I would like to be able to back everything up before I flash a new ROM. How do I prevent the phone from installing the OTA update that was inadvertently downloaded last night , which will unroot my phone??
Please help! Thank you
Not sure if you can stop it at this point and since the phone can still be rooted with the GB update, it may just be easiest to let it go.
Otherwise, if you really want to stop the update, you probably need to boot into Fastboot and find the files that are part of the update. From my Eris days, the OTA update isn't packaged up in the PG05IMG.zip file that you removed. I'm not sure where the files are or what files are the ones you need to delete though...
Someone fee free to correct me, but if you flash the CWM recovery it will prevent the update from happening?
Essentially, I just use the phone for wireless tether, so that's mainly why I root. Doubt that changes much of anything...

That's a common problem as I recall from a few weeks back. I saw threads about it but never read them as I wasn't affected. I don't know if it's a dead-end or easily fixed or complicated to fix...

I stumbled into clockwork recovery earlier... I will see what I can accomplish if I can make it back there!
Side note.. I can get into the phone for a minute or so before it restarts again.

Any thoughts on how to prevent VZW from pushing this update from now on?
Also need the best 2.3+ ROM... or is CM9 with 4.0 on the way??

Install a non-stock ROM. Don't worry, you can get Sense-based ones that won't be anything "new".
It appears that VZW will eventually force the update so there's no way that I'm aware of to stop it while running stock (even rooted stock).

Flash a ROM that has the update. There are a few around here that are 2.11.605.5 that you flash in Recovery so that it'll stop bugging you to update. Just pick one that is already rooted. You can do a backup of your currrent rom, flash the 2.11.605.5 then restore your data and your all set....

For future reference, you can download it and then choose not to install it. It can be downloaded over Wi-Fi, or uses background mobile data but doesn't display the icon.
EDIT:
It took 11 minutes to install, and now I'm Android 4.0.4 and Sense 4.1. I can't find how to change the Recent Apps button to a Menu button. I'm slightly upset about that.
Now on to attempting root!

Is that the "Defer" option, or "Yes", then choose to not install?
Once it downloads I would expect a constant nag to install until you do.

First "OK" to download update, then "Defer" to not install it once it has downloaded. And yeah, you'll probably get constant nags.

I believe the Menu button change is the 3-button Mod that you can install once rooted.
Good luck on the root attempt! Please let us know how it goes.
so can we not use this exploit unless we have downloaded the newest update?

Unlike the sense 4.1 updates for one series and EVO LTE, ours does not bring the key remappingoption to settings...those updates changed display & gestures to display, gestures, & buttons...and the option is in there for those users
Got the update but unlike others, mine just downloaded and installed without asking me permission! I was in my car and needed to make a call too! Argh. But at least it seems to have installed OK.
Any idea if this update is available for download on VZW's website somewhere? I am having trouble with the OTA update.
I got the update too...no notice, it just d/l'd and installed without options. What's the new icon in the status bar (left of the wifi)?
Caught mine just before it installed the update and yanked my battery. Every time I boot it back up it tries to install the update. Any ideas on how to get it to clear the update? Don't want to update til we know more about what this might mean for the possibility of S-OFF or root with the current h-boot.
it downloaded mine and i defered it, but where does it download to, i can't find it.

This firmware file takes you straight to JellBean on LGE970. There is no need to do the OTA if you flash this.

Exactly , the update popped up instantly when i booted the phone. Problem. you cant root!
Finally!!! After re-locking, un-rooting, and still getting errors, this worked. Thanks.
Okay, after going to 10o and nothing, plus getting a soft brick because I re-rooted, then LGNPSTing again to 11c, I still do not get an update! Now the phone says wait another 43hours to try again. What's going on? I am at home on WiFi and my AT&T Microcell.
So I am making an attempt to LGNPST to the linked firmware and it seems to be stuck at 2%? I have only used it once before and that was some time ago and it seemed to go much faster. It has been stuck for 13 min
EDIT I had a bad download got it to flash with the new download.
Could somebody post the md5 of the file from mega? *EDIT* nvm. I finally got mine working. If anybody else is interested, my md5 is 4d6bc49a7d4ab865c7bf55ea6fb4963a
:crying: back to 11c but not jb update:crying::crying::crying:
I have the program. The program does not recognize my phone. It shows up as unkown with no info filled in. I tried running the program as admin,regular and even tried to restart my computer and no luck. I installed LG drivers 3 times.I have the Bin file. I found the DLL for e970. I tried selecting the bin from lgnspt no luck. Only one shows up. I tried putting my phone in download mode and selecting the DLL from the file tab and the main one where you select your bin to and no luck,still just the original DLL shows up. I tried selecting the original DLL and the BIN I download and it tells me all of my phone data will be erased. So im like oh hell naw not just to get jelly bean on my phone and come to you guys for help. What should I do,this is some serious trail and error. BTW i have to now wait 130 hours before I can try again and I adjusted the clock multiple times which is why that has happened.
Argh. My 11c ota failed on Monday (I must have pocket-initiated it and I wasn't ready). Kind of annoying that it won't retry.
I still have the dlpkgfile from that update but I'm not sure if it's complete. And I'm not sure if this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1803090 will work with our phone either. Anyone have the dlpkgfile and can verify the size/md5 and/or the method to apply it?
Stupid questions that a lot of us are going to have: I am rooted but never unlocked the bootloader and would prefer not to at this point. If I LGNPST this file what is the effect on my phone? i.e. what gets reverted to stock and what stays as I had it? Will it un-root, and if so, can I use OTA rootkeeper to reapply root on 11c, or should I re-root the original way?
