[Q] DNA KK 4.4.2 Update Frozen/Problems - HTC Droid DNA

I just got the update for Kit Kat on my DNA and started the upload. It has sat there at about 20% complete for over 45 minutes. I pushed the volume up an power buttons to bring up the log and this is what it says:
Finding update package
Opening update package
Verifying update package
Installing update
Warning: No file_contextsPreparing wr_bin tool
Preparing recovery.zip
Running wr_bin tool
Can someone please help me?

Hmm...

I'm currently running a custom rom, so as far as the update actually goes i'm not too sure. The only advice i can give is to wait for a little longer. If nothing, then you might need to pop out your SIM card and download update via wifi. That's all the advice I can give. i'll do some research and get back to you on that!:good:
EDIT:
Just to verify, you had TWO updates before this installation began right? one 18.3MB file then a 618.0MB, correct?

4.4.2 OTA broke blinkfeed
I have an issue to where I did the OTA update to 4.4.2 and I did a factory reset through 2 different ways and now my BlinkFeed is nonexistent. I was wondering if there is a RUU for Verizon for the 4.4.2 update so I can just reset it that way because it seems the BlinkFeed files are corrupted or missing. Thanks.

Yes, there were supposed to be 2 updates but this is freezing on the first one. It's actually my wife's phone and we let it sit for awhile the day I first posted and it never did update. It restarted and worked as normal but it keeps wanting to update the software. We're trying again right now but it looks like it is stuck again.

Software Update

I have tried to look for this but can't seem to find info on this, maybe I'm not searching for the right thing, if anyone can point me in the right direction that would be fantastic.
I keep getting a msg on my phone that there is a software update on my phone, I go to install the update, it downloads it, then says my phone needs to be restarted. it restarts and I get to the CWM boot screen... then tells me it failed to update my phone. I'm assuming it isnt working due to the fact my phone is rooted. any suggestions on how to's to do this?
Thank you
Unroot phone .
Update OTA
Root phone
Or join XDA developers and flash stock rom via odin.

If you want a samsung update you have to flash a stock rom without root with Odin. You could also use Mobile Odin Pro for flashing a newer firmware and still keep root. You get the firmware here www.sammobile.com/firmware.
Disable Update
That sounds like a bit of a process that I'm not looking to get into right now... until then, is there a way to disable the update notification so that it doesn't keep alerting me that there is an update? it's starting to get rather annoying, it keeps pooping up from time to time.
You can freeze or remove the Update app. An app that doesn't exist cannot give you notifications.
It's not needed for the phone's correct functioning.
Flashing through Odin + Re-Rooting is a procedure of roughly 5 minutes, 4 of which for the firmware transfer and double-checking of the input.
Update CWM and re-run the root process

I had the same issue. I had rooted the phone using an older version of CWM. In this version OTA updates download but fail to install after booting to recovery.
Download the latest versions of CWM from here and re-run the rooting process. The newer version of CWM (1.5 and up) supports OTA. Worked a charm for me!
Or you can just plug the handset into your pc and update with kies. You will need to reroot following this though.

[Q] Is WW JB Update still available from OTA?

My situation:
.28 Rooted (not unlocked) with a few tweaks such as keyboard and browser2ram.
Tried to JB update via OTA and manual method and got red andy.
Said screw it, took the factory .28 image from asus and loaded it onto my tablet before and after doing a factory reset/data wipe.
So I'm now completely stock and when I check for updates it says not found.
Tried clearing DM and CM CLient as well as cold booting linux [Pow + Vol Dn] and still says "no update found"
So is the WW JB Update still avail or did asus pull it?
Thanks
I'm having the same problem. Can anyone confirm that they have successfully downloaded the JB update OTA in the last few hours?
Happened to me as well, i think after you got red andy once you dont get the ota anymore. I went ahead and used manual upgrade method.

Same problem here. Rooted, locked, stock.
Had the notification bar give me the JB update once, that install failed.
I then checked the f/w update manually, found it, redownloaded it, that install failed.
Now I can no longer get the update via the f/w update checker. (tried many times last night and this morning)
Clouds... is the JB update available to be installed manually? Can you point me in the right direction?

I think the files you want are linked here, but they take an age to download:
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1909820
I had a completely stock ICS .28 and got a dead droid (DMClient error). I manually downloaded the .28 from asus put it on a micro sd and it found this on reboot and installed OK. Now I am watching the green bar slooooowwwwwlly download the WW rom. The file has no extension, so I can't tell yet whether it is a blob file or the required zip.

Well, I just finished downloading that file, and whatever it is, and I renamed it as a zip (which it is) and my TFP ignored it. Maybe it needs a specific name to work.
The many of us for which the OTA failed will have to wait for Asus to list the files on their download site.

Alrighty, thanks.
This is the first time I've had any issues with updates, so was/am hesitant to dive in with the suggested workarounds posted in various places... don't know enough about the whole 'adb shell' stuff, etc, and don't want to make things worse.
I'm assuming that manually updating is relatively simple once Asus provides the files.

Hi
I had the same problem with the move from Honeycomb to ICS. The OTA would not do it and I got the red/dead droid. I have tried EVERY method to get Jelly Bean. The first attempt was OTA, and this loaded the file and tried to update but failed. Before I did it I back up root and unrooted. I have made no changes to the core system files. I have tried each method posted and none work. It goes straight to a dead driod. I re-installed .28 from the Asus site and still it would not work.
I shall have to wait until Asus decide that those like me 'deserve' JB and post the manual update files on the download page:
http://www.asus.com/Eee/Eee_Pad/Eee_Pad_Transformer_Prime_TF201/#download
Indeed.
Once the update is available there, is a pretty straight forward process? Or does it still require terminal commands, etc?
glad to see i'm not the only one.
Guess i'll have to wait for Asus to post the JB files.
after hearing about some of the bricks I'm patient enough to wait a few more days.

Officially Released!! OTA Lollipop I545VRUGOC1

Now Available!! 5.0.1!!!
Go get your lollipop ON!!!
Hopefully this will result in some bugs squashed with CM12. I am hoping for a better modem and better Bluetooth.
Queuing up downloads now, I have two of them pending for my device
are you able to capture the updates
I was able to capture the first update because im rooted. But i dont want to lose it if i update it. I hope the developers can find a way to keep root for the first update. if they can. I will happily capture the second update to get lollipop.

you could try taking it, then flashing the nc5 kernel through odin, and then (if someone's able to do this) get the kernel from nk4 and flash that

apparently this is a 2-part update
part 1 is a build where the last three characters are NK4. this is a kitkat ROM that was likely used to prepare for lollipop
part 2 is the actual lollipop build, OC1. i think it's 5.0.1 but i'm seeing conflicting things from the internet
for some reason verizon likes doing major updates this way (i dont think they did it for jelly bean to kitkat though). but i've had a few of their phones, they've been doing two-part updates since the original galaxy s in 2010 lol
Hey everyone! Has anyone solved the mystery of the lollipop update fail? Seems alot of us are getting the first update without any issues, but the lollipop update is failing. It gives error 402, which one person at Vz told me was an error thrown due to having root. ( I don't have root ) Any suggestions appreciated!

My update is failing as well.
I've wiped cache in recovery, wiped data and cache in download manager...
Still fails.
I was rooted at one time - not rooted anymore.
I do still get the "custom" boot screen with the padlock though...
Can someone that has taken the OC1 ota update test to see if the 4.4.2 kernel has been blacklisted by:
1. Flash the I545_NK4_Stock_Kernel.tar.md5 using Odin. The device will not boot after flashing but we are just interested to see if the kernel will successfully flash.
2. To go back to normal flash the I545_OC1_Stock_Kernel.tar.md5 also in Odin.
This is the first test to determine if a downgrade workaround will be available for those that took the OC1 ota update.

Nope, it fails to flash
Here is the short log from the screen:
Code:
START [224, 1440]
SYS REV CHECK FAIL[K] : Refer 1 > Binary 0
SECURE MAGICCODE CHECK FAIL : boot
Is there a stock Odin TAR for this yet?

Not good. The 4.4.2 kernel has been blacklisted. Thx for testing.
Successful update (in two part harmony) yesterday. Stock system. Fox-Fi still works over Wi-Fi so I'm happy. No issues except 2nd update took a loooonngg time on the red Verizon screen. Make sure your battery is full or you are plugged in. No comments on battery life as I've been able to stay charged today. Getting used to it.
Hey everyone! If you getting the 402 Error, there is a thread that might have the fix. Go to the Error 402 when updating to Lolipop? thread. I am going to try it when I get home tonight.

Thanks! Muniz_ri mentioned that you also captured the OC1 OTA package. I searched a lot but did not find it. Could you provide the link? Thanks again!

I had the same custom boot screen--even after unrooting. Tried using Triangle Away to reset the binary count, but the count was already at 0. So ultimately I had to re-flash the NC5 kernel via Odin to get things truly back to being recognized as stock.
Then updates started rolling in for NG6, then NK1. Finally the two-part update for Lollipop.

People getting tthe 40 error did you at one time have safestrap installed? ??
---------- Post added at 09:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:40 AM ----------
I've always found taking out sd card then a fresh Odin back to stock then doing my updates lead me to a flawless update process every time
Guys I'm on NC5 only rooted by towelroot what do I do please?!

OTA Update

I got an OTA,
Download and Verified
Rebooted started to install
Then got the Android laying on his back with error under it.
So I held the power button,
the device restarted but no longer offers an OTA update.
My questions are,
Will given time will Google catch on I am running old firmware a offer the OTA again?
Can I force the OTA?
Will it even complete it failed the first time?
or
Should I just give up, find the image, extract it and update manually?

Install could have failed for a variety of reasons. If you are rooted, or have a custom kernel, or are unencrypted, of there is any modification to the system.
You can sideload the OTA, but really? That's as much work as fastboot flashing the system image.
So, if your bootloader is unlocked, I'd suggest that you just fastboot flash the individual .img files, extracted from the system image.
.... I did a manual install, I have not had much luck with OTAs

Downloading system update

Just took a look at my phone and a system update is downloading - says it's 526.6mb. It was already 50%+ done by the time I took a look. Anyone know what it's about?
Was able to get into the "Learn more" part and it's updating the version to VS99023A. Supposedly provides improved WiFi calling performance and a clarification to the USB connection pop-up when the phone is charging.

No clue, got the same thing. Didn't think N was available, so may be 6.1
Edit: https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/lg-v10-update/
It is unlocking your boot loader and removing bloatware.
Tried to update...it errored out.
I had root, then restored to update to Marshmallow. My status is still listed as "modified" is there anyway to fix that so I can take this update?
Edit:
I reflashed the 22A with LGUp with Refurbish mode. Then updated. Was good to get a fresh start, I guess....
