[Q] Update to Android 4.4 doesn't work - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
an hour ago I was able to install Android 4.4 on my Nexus 4 via the automatic update.
The Phone turned off, the installation process started. There was a warning, telling me that something is wrong with the certification but I ignored it. After Android 4.4 was installed there was a warning, that I will loose root access. I choose "Fix it". Since then there is an animation on the screen with 4 points flying arround. I tried to restart the Phone, but the animation came up again.
Does somebody know whats wrong with my phone?
thx
Maxi

[Q] Freshly installed 4.3 produces ghost OTA update notifications

I have installed Android 4.3 from occam image downloaded from Google to my Google Nexus 4. The phone has been rooted and set up with TWCR.
The problem is that every week or so the phone thinks there is an OTA OS update from Google: a notification icon pops up telling that an "update to Android 4.3" has been downloaded (update size 1.8M). The update "installs" in a second, boots into TWCR which offer to repairs root access (and I do), and then boots normally. There is no that "optimizing app N of M" lengthy process as with a real OS upgrade.
I confirmed that the build incremental version in /system/build.prop does not change; in fact, the build fingerprint is not changed by this "update":
Code:
ro.build.fingerprint=google/occam/mako:4.3/JWR66V/737497:user/release-keys
Why does this happen and what may I try to do to prevent this?
same issue happened yesterday with my phone

My wife's all stock Nexus 4 with Android 4.3 got an update notification today, and run an upgrade that did not change anything in the "About phone" page. Unlike mine, thought, it did the "Optimizing application X of Y" step after a reboot.
So maybe there was a systemic glitch which just coincided with my phone re-flash? This explanation would hold if I do not see any more of these "updates" coming in the next few weeks.
Hi kkm000
today I unroot my phone and flash stock recovery and then successfully installed the update.
version of the build changed from JWR66V to JWR66Y

Quantum 400 - Newly installed 4.4.2 and it's restarting all the time

Hi.
I had a Goclever Quantum 400 but I've buy a new phone. And I want to give that Q400 to somebody from my faimlly but this device from last few days starting to act weird. Apps won't run and stuff like that. I can't do a factory reset because after restart it's still was the same. So I try to install a new android from here - goclever.com/uk/products,c1/smartphone,c8/archive,c100/quantum-400,a331.html#support
And it's the installatioi process goes well so after that I turn on device and put my google account etc. But after that device restarts every time. Once it after few second after turn on, once its minute after or something like that.
And now I can't install any other android because it still is the same, even when updating goes well. I can't turn recovery mode either.
Any help?

Installation Android M failed - Rollback stuck with transition package

Hi,
I installed the upgrade to Android 6 C432B330, after ca. 70 % it said failed. Afterwards the phone booted and the version information said Android 6.
As I didn't know whether everything worked I decided to use the rollback package(hihonor.com/de/support/details/?DOC_ID=77723)
I followed instructions and tried to install firmware(B180) after the rollback package (also tried B121). But it got stuck after 5% every time I tried. Luckily nothing really happened and I can still use my phone.
Now I don't now what to do. I think I'm still on the transition package(my phone is on B300) which explicitly states "must not be used as a normal version" .
What should I do now? Is it safe to try to force upgrade to 6 again?
Thank you for your help!
I took a leap of faith and force upgraded to B330. It did work!

Moto G3 - rooted unsuccessfully, want to return totally to stock.

HI folks.
I'm the owner of a Moto G3 that I tried (unsuccessfully) to root. I managed to reflash the correct firmware to the phone so that it at least worked. I'm currently running Android 5.1, but I'd like to install Android 6 which was installed. Unfortunately, everytime I try to do the update, it downloads and starts the install, reboots (or tries to, it goes to the bootloader screen on reboot every time) several times, and ultimately says update failed. I'm assuming the two issues (booting to Bootloader screen and refusing the update) are related - but I don't know how to fix either of them!! Id like to be able to return the phone back to completely stock with Android 6 running, and with the bootloader unlocked so I can have another bash at rooting at another time.
Help please!!!
