Got the new LFB update from KIES but out of disk space? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I finally got the LFB update from KIES, but it's says that im out of disk space (this is before actually updating the phone, it's when downloading the FW to my computer i think). I need 3000MB of disk space it says. I have 100GB free so it is wrong...
What is this??

Hello guy's i am the trying to update my device but can't it starts to connect to server but fails all the time?? Any other way? Thank you

Kies, Odin, Mobile Odin, CWM. Take your pick.
Unsure about any of them? There's a search function, and it's not just there to look pretty.
Just be sure to take note that you have an I9100G (according to your spammy signature) before doing something silly.

Update is as said via KIES the over the air FOTA service is not yet fully rolled out hopefully it will be ready for the imminent release of ICS Android 4 .
The latest version may not be available for your phone . In which case update via the stock roms post .

update
some website shows ics officially update realesed on 10th march?
So? They're clearly wrong, and if you would take a few seconds to search, you could have found official clarification.
By the way, sticking a question mark at the end of a statement a question does not make.

Storage location of OTA updates?

Hi, does anyone know where the OTA firmware updates are kept on the Galaxy S3?
I had a generic ROM on my phone which had an update which got downloaded. I did install it because the ROM wasn't the one I was after.
After finding the correct ROM and flashing it I see the downloaded update is still waiting to be installed from the previous ROM...
I know I could just wipe my phone but I'd rather not lose all my data at the moment.
This file must be stored somewhere but I can't seem to find it...
Any help would be appreciated

Cache partition.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Yeah it's root/cache/fota
But obviously you have to be Rooted to see it.
Thanks for the replies... I got root access back and installed Root Browser, found that fota location and it seems to be empty... see attached pic...
Any other ideas? Perhaps I need to reset a file that says there's an update downloaded and ready to install..?

They can download, the only question is weather they can install it or not. As for the OP, give the explorer superuser permissions. That should fix your prob.
Hi
I have a rooted phone ( huawei model ) ....downloaded new upgrade package via OTA ( 50MB only ) ...did not confirmed yet to "flash" it but
having a look at root/cache / fota doesn't exist....there are some more folder there but without file I just downloaded via ota

OTA Update Issue

Hi guys,
Got an update that I had an OTA update waiting. This is strange as I'm on I9300XXLH1 which I think is the latest right? Also my phone is rooted so I thought I wouldn't get OTA updates? Was originally a Vodafone branded phone, i applied ROM through Odin.
So i hit update and it downloads (17.61MB), screen comes up with the usual update message and says:
Update details (17.61MB)
Improved stability
and gives me Later and Install options..
Hit install and phone reboots and then seems to go to CWM screen:
"CMM-based recovery v5.5......"
With some options like reboot system now, install Zip, wipe etc...
Down the bottom it has some text about finding and opening package then says it "failed to verify whole-file signature
installation aborted.
I choose reboot and phone boots fine but then I get a blank update box. I hit close and it goes away.
next time i check for updates there it is again.
Any ideas on this?
I believe it is a modem update.

You can't apply it because your rooted. Either update through Kies or download the firmware from sammobile and flash through Odin.
You can also flash the stock recovery back. That'll let the ota go through.

As mentioned if your device is rooted the update will fail. If you are keen to uply that tiny update flash stock rom n check through kies if that update is available. I changed the csc on my device a from AFR to BTU. It wiped everything as I knew that and my device back to stock as well as got the new lh1 modem update. Currently on stock rom will wait until the official release.

I had the same problem, just update it via Kies
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Root is not the cause for the failure, not having a stock recovery is.
Also if you use KIES beware that there is a good chance it will wipe your internal SD
Thats not true, neither of the statements you made were true... CWM supports OTA now. And Kies doesn't format your internal card...

Kies has formatted my internel sd every time I have ever used it on the s1, 2 and 3.... so..... what am I doing wrong?
and also it depends what CWM he has installed, if he has Chainfires (from cf-root) then OTA's will fail maybe if he is on Koushes latest build (which he clearly isn't) then it would have worked.
Edit: Chainfire has just informed me that the reason most OTA's fail in CWM is that it has signature verification set to ON (like stock recovery) and as the recovery image signature will not match if you are on a custom recovery the flash then fails.

Getting a stock Rom or Firmware: OK Odin says PASS but nothing's done.
in CWM: tried to format /data: stuck: nothing done.
: Impossible to Wipe data/factory reset: stuck 15 minutes then reboot, but nothing done.
: Impossible to format it: Error mounting /data!
: Impossible to mount it (obiviousily) Error mounting /data!
Recovery mode works; Download mode too.
Heeeeelp......

Hardware: Samsung Galaxy SII GT-I9100 (not G/T/M/...!)
