Hello
First of all awesome work by Condi.
I updated OTA my Sony Tab S (Chinese, Wifi 32G) to R5A back in Dec, 2012 (I had no idea I won't be able to root and stuff at that time). Waited a long time for some solution and finally found Aio tool v6.4. Successfully rooted (after some failed attempts due to adb driver problems etc).
followed all the steps in China Device Tutorial v0.4.
Downloaded the official US update signed-nbx03_001-ota-120410004.zip. Tried to install new firmware, but failed.
Gave another try with signed-nbx03_001-ota-121116036.zip but failed.
Searched through forums, downloaded the custom_prerooted_doubleFLASH_R5A_nbx03_016-ota-121116077 firmware. Failed.
Downloaded OTA update using my own tablet signed-nbx03_001-ota-121116036.zip (and catching the update file using Condi's Tweaks and Mods menu. Tried to install firmware but again failed.
Error details
Condi's script doesn't give any error or warning but states everything is ok
ADB driver is installed in both normal and recovery mode (I can check the device using adb devices command in both device modes)
Tablet shows following error in recovery mode (in each case)
Copy System image...
assert failed: file_getprop("/system/build.prop", "ro.build.fingerprint") == "Sony/nbx03_001/nbx03:3.2.1/THMASU0035/0035.001:user/release_keys" || file_getprop("/system/buid.prop", "ro.buid.fingerprint") == "Sony/nbx03_001/nbx03:3.2.1/THMAS0042/0042.001:user/release-keys"
E:Error in /tmp/desklunvr/desklunvr.zip
(Status 7)
Kindly tell me the mistake that I have committed and what can I do to correct it.
Thanks in advance
assert failed error message - Sony Tablet S
Having the same Issue as you friend, did you manage to get it fixed ?
I'm attempting to upgrade from 4.0.3 5a (Recovery 3e)
1. Root successfully done with AiO Tool
2. Signed custom_prerooted_doubleFLASH_R5A_nbx03_001-ota-121116036.zip
3. Installed Rescue Backdoor
4. Flash Custom Rom (Signed)
5. Stuck with "assert failed" error as shown in the images here https://www.dropbox.com/sh/7d42bl01j1fivbc/MMr1uXfkSn
6. I see this problem discussed here with no clear solution http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34665016&highlight=assert+failed#post34665016
The AiO Tool says the failure is OK. I'm confused how should i proceed if this failure is expected
Can someone help ?
**UPDATE**
I read further and noticed Condi mention using the Flasher Tool instead.
I tried and it failed as well, started a new thread here

I bought my Sony Tablet S from Singapore 1 year back. Now I am in India and I tried updating the device through the system update in setting and every time it downloaded the full package and ended with an Error Code:5 update failed.
Now I thought to going to do it offline by flash Rom. I already rooted my device and changed the region to India using "SonyTablet.S [ALLinONE] v5.3"
After downloading the actually update from the sony info site "signed-nbx03_026-ota-121116082" i copied to the SD card
During the installation of the file through "install from SD card" command, the updates are getting failed with an error
Verifying update package
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
I used OTA versions of v5a
India and Singapore and neither worked.
My Tablet is working fine with android 3.2.1. But I want to upgrade to V4.1
Please help.
Thank you.

Can you please try to install (either file) through recovery and then use "adb pull /tmp/recovery.log" and post it here so we can see what is going on.
Thanks

Hi,
Change region to US, download US ICS - R1 / R5 (not r5a), and flash it.
If you really need india's fw - then get fw, decrypt it, make it prerooted (with AiO) and flash (with AiO).

Hoping someone can help me out with what was obviously a stupid mistake. I have a Moto E on which I installed TWRP and then SuperSU for root access. I got a notification about an OTA update to 4.4.4 and I stupidly accepted it. Now when my phone boots up, it goes into TWRP. If I tap the middle icon on the bottom, I can see the following console output:
Code:
Installing zip file '/cache/Blur_Version.21.12.34.condor_retuaws.retuaws.en.US.zip'
Installing '/cache/Blur_Version.21.12.34.condor_retuaws.retuaws.en.US.zip'...

assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "condor.umts" ||
getprop("ro.build.product") == "condor.umts" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "condor.umts" ||
getprop("ro.build.product") == "condor.umts"

E: Error installing zip file '/cache/Blur_Version.21.12.34.condor_retuaws.retuaws.en.US.zip'
Done processing script file
If I go to "Reboot" and then "System" within TWRP, the phone will boot up normally, but then it reboots again a short time later and tries to install the update, which fails and goes into the TWRP menu. At this point I don't really care about the update or keeping root, I'd just like to have a working phone again. Any advice?
So I think I fixed it temporarily at least. Within TWRP I deleted /cache/Blur_Version.21.12.34.condor_retuaws.retuaws.en.US.zip, then rebooted. The phone booted up normally, and after a couple of minutes I got a full-screen notification saying "Update unsuccessful". Phone seems to be behaving normally now. Can anyone give me some guidance on what to do next? From what I've read elsewhere, the OTA updates will fail if you are non-stock. I'm running stock firmware, so I guess the problem is probably with TWRP. If I flash the stock recovery, will I then be able to do the OTA update?
You need unmodified stock system and stock recovery to flash the update.
There are guides in general section to do so.
Check those out.

Root won't make the update fail. Flashing the stock recovery & insuring that you still have all the stock apps would allow the update. I hope you backed that update up before deleting it. I doubt they send another.
Hey
I wanted to root my A1-810 with the toolkit.
I had "RV27RC03_WW_GEN1" so I took the prerooted system.img.gz from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2240029
After that I had the bootloop...and I wanted to recover with the original OS from Acer and directly got the prompt "Installation aborted". I also tried to recover with the extracted update.zip from the original OS. The installation started but at the end there was the prompt:
"Remove last update te_finish_update.txt...
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.name") == "a1-810_ww_gen1"
Installation aborted
Factory reset did not do anything, too.
Do I have to send it to Acer? There is no guarantee anymore
Hi I need some help please.
I only have accesss to the fastboot mode and the recovery.
The bootloader is unlocked and I already tried every guide I could find on the net how to flash a new stock rom.
I tested many different recoverys but I haven't found one which was able to flash a stock rom to the device.
For example I tried this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/padfone-x/help/guide-restoring-stock-rom-recovery-t3179818
But when I try to flash the 4.4.2 downgrade firmware in the recovery just nothing happens ("zip file signature verification" disabled) or the logs says: "E: Zip signature verification failed: 1; Error flashing zip "x.zip"; Updating partition details..." ("zip file signature verification" enabled)
I hope you guys can help me, thanks
Solution
I found it out myself:
When I tried to flash a rom using cwm it said something like "this is for T00N devices; you have t00n device".
So I tried the modified roms which are able to convert TW to WW from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/padfone-x/general/guide-asus-padfone-s-kk-l-fix-brick-t3197684
and it just worked fine now using cwm 6.0.5.1.
Maybe I could help someone else with this at least

error in recovery it shows me this:
Verifying current system... E3005: "/bt_firmware/image/btfw32.tlv" has unexpected contents. E:Error in /cache/Blur_Version.27.211.6.griffin.retail.en.US.zip (Status 7) Installation aborted.
You received error because you used the wrong OTA file (Blur_Version.27.211.6.griffin.retail.en.US.zip it's already installed on your phone if you re-locked it).
On the other topic I gave you the tutorial to sideload and the correct file to use, Blur_Version.27.231.8.griffin.retail.en.US.zip.
