Won't install. (HTC unlocked, rooted, and some bloat uninstalled w/ TB.) Phone restarted after install & went to ClockworkMod Recovery screen.
Bottom of screen says:

E: signature verification failed

The Software Update button on the phone refers to this page at vzw. It says it's a new baseband and doesn't even refer to ICS. Is it ICS?
I'd be interested to know if reverting to stock works for others or if it's even possible after uninstalling bloat.
Thanks.
Return to stock. that's why people shouldn't root if they still want to update their phones.

a rule of thumb is generally don't except any update unless your on pure stock (unrooted, htc locked or relocked, stock rom and etc.)

When it goes from GB to ICS, then pretty much everything is getting replaced..
Someone might be able to extract the radios from that, but it looks like a Gingerbread-specific patch overall. UI changes to display five bar signal strength, etc.
And the fact that they released this right now does not speak well for the prospects of an imminent ICS release. Can't see why they'd deploy both in short order except that maybe ICS has been pushed out pretty far.
Finally, where are the soak testers? How does stuff like this get released and none of us have heard about it beforehand? Surely somebody in the user base is testing these things before release???

That is the same old 2.01.605.11 OTA update from late January/February. Nothing new at all.
The OP is receiving the update because he is on 1.02.605.6 firmware.
I think HTC should just do either one of these 2 options
1. Not even release ics since everyone here has it pretty much
2.Just release ICS already with source code or just take a sense 4/3.6 rom from xda and turn it into an ota.
Seriously we have everything working on a sense 3.6 port that HTC is probably still trying to work out.

1. What about those who run stock? They want ics too, think about how little this community really is compared to how many regular users there are
2. They will release the kernel source with it soon after as they have to by law
If they take one of the roms from xda they have to give credit which they won't give credit so they will just release it when it's ready
These aren't sense 3.6 ports, they are the real deal from HTC themselves leaked to the community
Sense 4 is a port but HTC will never release sense 4 to us

New update coming soon apparently. I would recommend people holding off on it until a stock rooted version is released.
If the package includes new radios it might help us out with ICS roms or give us better signal strength.

I just got mine Sunday and am still 100% stock. So I'll get this as soon as it comes out. Been waiting to unlock the bootloader and root it, just to run the phone for a few weeks to see how it is.

unlocked bootloader
Can I install the OTA on the rezound if the bootloader is unlocked only?
Hi, speaking as a newbie with a Rezound that's rooted and has an unlocked bootloader.
If I install this update, it'll break my root right? Would it affect the bootloader?
If I don't want it to affect my root status, would I have to wait until a "hacked" version is released by the developers here?
And if I ever install a custom rom, I could only get software updates through the developer of that rom, correct?
Thanks guys!
Per the PDF
Verizon Wireless is pleased to announce a new software update,

Yup. I deferred it, but I just checked and it's there. About 54mb it says. I won't download it until I know it doesn't break root or anything else I have going here. I did download that root protect software just in case it actually makes a difference.
is there a way for you to somehow get the http:// link?
Con its still downloading for me. I'll see what I can find when its complete.
I didn't ask for it start downloading, it just started on its own.
It is likely it won't let start installing automatically. So if it prompts you to install, connect to USB and see if you can find the zip file.
No update yet here, but my mainver was updated running ics so that may be the reason
I'm living on a yellow submarine
If you aren't running the stock rom it probably won't authenticate.
mine locked up at 54%. lol. on clean rom 1.5. going to do a nandroid and restart I guess.
The update downloaded to my phone and i hit ok to install it but it didn't do anything. no reboot or anything. Any suggestions
Guys.. dsb9938 1.0.2 rom has had this base now for a long time. Been running it for a while now and very nice. I didn't like the themed version so I'm running the stockish build. Just saying

Here's the bottom line up-front
Samsung has inserted code to blacklist our baseline and mitigate our exploits in the bootloader patch they began pushing out last night. You will need to flash the updated bootloader baseline and stock pit in order to restore your device to operational status. The How-To Unlock your Bootloader thread is invalid at this time.
Going Forward
I need your help with CASUAL. In order to mitigate this problem, I began working on a CASUAL update system on January 13. If you feel inconvienced now, contribute to the Casual Update System beta by testing it. Currently, CASUAL is dumb. If there is a problem you won't know until after you flash. The idea behind the Update System is to either update the CASUAL to work again, or kill-switch it and automatically bring you to a thread like this one. Obviously it's infinitely more helpful than a simple failure and I need testing on Windows, Linux, Mac and firewalls.
The CASUAL Unlock method will be updated when we figure it out and it will be possible to auto-update or do a helpful kill-switch in the next version.
Addressing Security Patches:
Recognized Developer Ralekdev has began work on a new exploit. It's not going to be as simple as it was before.
Bootloader Blacklisting
You can view the updated code here: http://pastie.org/private/zzfhwlrgeeuzweiccjdpvg#22
Previously, Odin Mode would accept any SBOOT with the proper signature. Samsung has implemented a blacklist which causes properly signed flashes to fail if they are contained in the blacklist.
Code:
bytes_to_hexstr(BL1_blacklist_str, base_addr + 0x1BF0, 16);
if ( !strcmp(BL1_blacklist_str, BL1_blacklists[i]) )
{
sub_43E03A00("BL1 of the blacklist - %s\n", BL1_blacklists[i]);
return -1;
}
The old bootloader contained random ARM hex data "CD D2 04 85 63 83 52 7C C9 8A 97 1A CD 30 78 FB".. The new one contains an identifier "EXYNOS_4412 1220". The new bootloader is also programmed to not be able to flash itself.
Non-Header Code Execution
You can view the updated code here: http://pastie.org/private/ryxaraypnnhbmtt6nswvq
Previously, if the ANDROID header was missing from the kernel, SBOOT would execute the partition as raw ARM code. This allowed Ralekdev's exploit to jump into the SBOOT.bin and execute download mode without security checks. However the code has been replaced..
Code:
if ( !memcmp(v5, "ANDROID!", 8) )
{
*** DO NORMAL SECURE BOOT ****
}
else
{
dprintf("Could not do normal boot. (invalid magic)\n");// this is where we exploited it last time to load my code
s5p_start_download_mode(v9);
}
return 0;
}
So obviously, this execution of arbitrary code exploit has been patched.
Conclusion
We are working to bring a new exploit and make it easier that the last one. Ralekdev will be analyzing and working on a new exploit. I will work on deployment techniques. For now if youre having problems, flash back to stock and root your device.
Why cant Samsung and Verizon just leave this **** alone and let android be real AOSP.

That was funny!
Here is the part about the OTA that is being left out.
If you look at the OTA it wont execute the updater portion of bootloader until the end.
The first thing the OTA does is examine the partitions, files, etc to see if they have been altered... If the checks fail the OTA just quits with error 7 (or 8 I forget). When it quits nothing flashes. This will occur on pretty much any custom ROM unless you edit the OTA to bypass the checks (see next line)...
I'm not saying be stupid and TRY to flash the OTA on a custom ROM but I built an L4 base last night with the OTA so you really dont need to anyways. To do this I had to remove those checks I just mentioned.
This thread should be sticked in two forums, this and general, because people thinking about rooting and on the edge need to do so now before the stock ROM forces the OTA!
But as far as a custom ROM accepting and succesfully flashing the OTA? Pretty much zero to none. Trust me on this ;c)

And I agree, Verizon has turned total ***** on this!
They could have atlast made it 4.1.2!

Anyway, would be interesting to see how this blacklisting is done.
Is it only checking for modified partitions or actually checking something else against a (real) blacklist??

Update your recovery to TWRP 2.6.
Phone is an AT&T I717 hence why I posted in this forum, using CWM, yes I'm downloading from WiFi with a laptop using Chrome, and the only ROM that worked was Slim 4.2.2. I flashed that one several months ago but my cousin is having freezing and rebooting problems why I was going to flash something else.

Its very easy . . . just download the zip from their site and flash it with CWR. It will replace CWR.
Use TWRP to make a backup of your current system and efs, then wipe system and data, then any rom you flash will be a clean installation. You don't have to mess with the modem.

Yeah I used to have TWRP on my Inspire didn't think it would be a big deal just using CWM to flash my cousin's phone. She doesn't know how to do any of this but she wanted a cleaner OS and hated all the bloat and saw how I had 4.2.2 on a way older phone. Any idea why CWM is failing just curious?

Sorry if I seemed to be rude but I wasn't I was just trying to help I guess that is hard to notice when you can't convey tone due to only seeing letters. I appreciate the help and yes I know my grammar was horrible in the OP I was using my phone and in a hurry was just trying to post it up before I got busy and forgot to do it.
Why did CWR fail?
Like Captemo said, its outdated. Since 4.1 (JB) roms hit, you get a status 7 error, installation aborted.
Whats the big difference between twrp 2.5 and 2.6 lol 2.5 works just fine ...people were having issues with newer versions and 4.3 ....i say why fix something that isn't broken but people will argue with that. So whats the difference

I have done the same thing and you are right, the emotion taken is often mood the reader is in. I wasn't grumpy, just been couped up for a couple of days.
My apologies, I am sure the recovery update is your issue and hope you get back on track.

I know. we cant all be Mary Poppins, and I am far from a spoon full of sugar. I am more like a cup of broken glass chards
Looks like the credible SamMobile has 4.4.2 kitkat in their palms. We could expect a leak to be soon, in the past they have been really good about leaking firmware like how they already have for the s4 by contacting thier "elite friends."The picture below is a screenshot of the kitkat easteregg and wrote note 3 on it. Some of the things im most looking forwards to is Google wallet and the ability to hide apps from the app drawer. FUNFUNFUN
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8E4dspICPJE
Basicly saying we'll leak it when it become more stable. It doesn't surprise me considering the s4 got it leaked already, but what does surprise me is that they got a kitkat leak first, considering we have the newer/premium device.

OK just a thought but if we do get the release.... the leaked one could there be a chance that there is some way we could unlock the bootloader.. being that it is a leak not fully locked down like the officials would be.

They leak will be as locked down if it's for our variant... And either way, chances are It will be for the international version so either way it's irrelevant. But it shouldn't be too hard to port it hopefully.

This wont work with the verizon N3 will it.

Can this be installed on a Dev edition? Since it probably has the aboot partition included, will it lock the Dev edition phone? Once a dev makes this rom suitable for the retail version, is there a way to extract and repack the files without the aboot portion? How does one make an Odin-flashable file anyway if one has the partitions like boot.img, modem.bin etc? I've always been wanting to learn to make my own Odin .tar files in case I want to flash and don't have recovery installed.
Thanks
Isn't anyone concerned about this update, I mean look at the SE Android Status from N9005 from the test build it is currently showing as Enforcing. For those of us with the Retail SM-N900V doesn't this mean no more Safestrap Recovery? Also, if you go back and read about the Test Firmware it does a complete wipe of Data, so shouldn't we be worried about Root too? I certainly understand the excitement over 4.4.2 but isn't anyone paying attention to what the test build has done?
Hard to be excited about losing Root and Safestrap to get KitKat...

You mean Root has been restored already on the international version, which this is mainly due to the Unlocked Bootloader, which it is simpler to restore Root on a device that has an Unlocked Bootloader as you just install/flash the SU.zip in custom Recovery and Root is restored, works for Unlocked devices. There lies the problem, for those of us with the retail SM-N900V if the KitKat update does a complete wipe on install deleting the internal storage all is lost, if SE is set to Enforcing it could be a cold winter.

Idk...kitkat really doesnt seem to be a big deal. I have it running on another device, and its a minor update. I could live with 4.3 and a rooted device with safe strap

It's not really Root I'm worried about, I'm more concerned with Recovery. If the SE status changes from "Permissive" to "Enforcing" there goes our ability to flash new custom 4.4.2 ROMs that I'm sure will come out. It will be like owning a SM-N900A.

I was under the impression that the only data wipe was when people are Odin-ing the update, rather than accepting an OTA. On the past androids i had (incredible, thunderbolt, galaxy nexus, s3, note 10.1, nexus 7) i haven't had an update that wiped data from an OTA.

For some reason I don't think they are going to set it to enforcing. Because they haven't for the past 3 updates. Even if they did. Hash would be able to easily cook up ss because on the at&t note 3 and Verizon s4 and s3 are enforcing and he was able to do it... Never underestimate @Hashcode

Quick note to anyone coming from MJ9, this update can remove your root, and the MJ9 saferoot method will not work on it.
Happy updating to those out there!
I've lost root too..does anyone know of a root process for the build? I haven't tried the process listed in the Development section as it doesn't say anything about the VRUAND3 build...
Thanks!!
Saferoot is not working with the new update VRUAND3 so don't waste your time.

At the moment we don't know yet. But I was told today that you can go back to 4.1.1 with a great risk of bricking your device.

If you updated to 4.3 you cannot go back to 4.1.1
Also going to 4.1.1 is touchy. If you were to go back you need to go to 4.1.2
Basically if you have the official 4.3 update and beyond you cannot unlock the bootloader or in some instances root.
I am using the Skynote Rc2.5 ROM but I am technically coming from 4.1.2. There is no official 4.2.x update for this version of the Note 2.

Right, I was asking because the ND3 update doesn't appear to be any different than MJ9 firmware wise except for what I assume are mostly changes in the baseband to accomodate the Telus bands. I would think that safeboot will be updated easily for this minor build but I am not any expert by any means.
I also saw people talking about for the same Telus update for the S3 to just Odin backflash VRUCNC1 4.3 to VRUCML1 4.3 with success (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2575661&page=153). Anyone tried that? I might actually try it myself to get root back. I don't this new "update". I think VZ did this more to take away root than add some really necessary Canadian roaming anyway.

Curious to see what your results are if you do try this. I also feel that VZW did this update more to take root away, especially considering that the base band could have been incorporated into the (hopefully) upcoming 4.4 update.
Yup, this annoyed me enough that I finally got an account!
this update was just to steal root. they had already tried using the my verizon app to take it. telus uses gsm and the same lte frequency verizon uses. all vzw note 2's could already "roam" on telus. this was just vzw being f**ktards trying to control us.

Other users are reporting that you can Odin back to MJ9 and then root with saferoot. See this thread for details... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52792973

I was forced the vruand3 update at about 4 am while I was sleeping. I woke up to no root and some issues tied to the freedom app not being uninstalled. I flashed back to mj9 with odin. I rerooted with saferoot. I was still having the connection issues with everything google related. I took the ota update again to try to fix the issue. The google issue fixed itself after the ota, but my root wasn't taken away this time. So now I'm on build vruand3 and have full root access. Maybe someone can shed some light on this , or it will help someone
