Seems you are completely stock, try rebooting and doing it again. If still not working you could download the OTA RUU and flash that. I believe the 3rd one from the bottom is the OTA you are looking for, someone correct me if I am wrong.

same thing but worse
I have my thunderbolt rooted but I don't have any rom's loaded. The update downloaded, but is now stuck in a off/on endless loop
anyway to stop it from trying to update? that way I could at least get my stuff backed up in titanium and wipe/load a rom?
It reboots to clockwork then says...
Finding update package....
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed

I reboot system then it just starts all over again

There are countless posts/threads around here warning not to try to update a rooted phone with stock/OTA files.
Get a SD card reader/adapter, pull your microSD card out of the phone, and delete the PG05IMG.zip from it using your PC.
Hello all,
I am having trouble upgrading from 2.3.6 to ICS. I got an OTA notification for my Fido XT910 and when I tried to apply it, it told me that I did not have enough memory and to try performing a factory reset. After searching, I found that this was happening because my device was rooted. I removed root and tried again. Now, the update seems to work! It gets halfway through, then fails and reboots. I searched some more and found that something may be amiss in my file system.
So, I let the OTA upgrade download again, but this time I told it to "Install Later". I re-rooted my phone, copied the OTA file from my /cache folder to SD-EXT, unrooted, booted into recovery and finally tried to apply the update again. This time I found out what is preventing the upgrade from going through. It looks like it cannot find the file Videos.apk. Now, I don't know what this file is. I thought it might be Google Play Movies so I dumped into my /system/app/ folder as Videos.apk. No luck. I looked through the 2.3.6 upgrade file to find the Videos.apk file, but it only contained a binary update file (Videos.apk.p) and not the complete apk. I don't know what I can do to get the update to run successfully, without wiping!
Can anyone help me? Does anyone still have a Fido branded XT910 running 2.3.6 that they could extract the Videos.apk file from and send my way?
Any help is appreciated! Thanks in advance!
If it helps, here is the error message I get when applying the upgrade file:

Thanks again!
Anyone have any ideas? I really can't find anything like this by searching through the XDA or other forums. I'm so close to fixing this, I would hate to stumble on this final step. Thanks again!
I dont know, I am in the same boat as you.
Accept im trying to flash from the released zip of the same file you are getting OTA.
I have temp unrooted with voodoo and same error.
Did a factory reset and still get same error.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What's the error you're getting? I've worked past several issues so far, so maybe I can help you. I'm just stuck on this latest one.
I am getting

But after some research It appears I need to go back to stock ICS using the Droid Razr utility by matt. Then temp unroot with voodoo tool, flash the new update, then reroot with voodoo tool.

OK, so you're getting the exact same error message as me!
I had a tough time find Matt's utility. Were you able to download it? Did it correct your issue? Thanks in advance!

OK, I'm downloading Matt's utility right now. It's huge! About 1GB. I'll let you know how it goes.
If im reading http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38877887#post38877887 correctly then the update that went out today is only for those who got the xmas update.
If thats the case we will have to find the original xmas update first, then flash todays update.

Yes, this is my understanding as well. I need to update to ICS before I can update to JB.

Right, and then we have to find the JB update that was released at xmas.
---------- Post added at 03:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:49 PM ----------
Pretty sure this is the JB xmas file
http://d-h.st/8l1
Yes, that is the correct file. It's for phones with the 211 ICS build. Also, Droid Life has the separate new JB file for phones on the 211 build, in case you want to install JB in one step.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda app-developers app
DHomas did you get it sorted?
Ive got it figured out and am now on JB. BAM.
Step1: First of all, you will need to use the droid razr utility to go back to ICS.
You can get this tool at http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/topic/11872-droid-razr-utility-190-windows-mac-linux-all-in-one/
IMPORTANT. Make sure you install moto drivers, and rsd lite. Both included with this utility download.
Make sure phone has usb debugging mode enabled.
Make sure when plugging phone into computer you disable mass storage mode.
Step2: Once on ics use the utility to also root again.
Step3: Once rooted, install voodoo and create a root backup.
Step4a: Put this file on your external SD card.
Droid life actually has the whole new file. So no need to flash xmas leak.
You can get it here - http://www.mediafire.com/?5ca5825kzojfv49
Step4b: Boot into recovery and install from sd. Choose the above linked file. Let it do its thing.
Enjoy.

Just a warning, after doing this even though the utility indicated root was done, and after JB installed voodoo is showing root but when trying to update the SU app it says FAIL when trying to gain root access.
Luckily root can be gained in JB using this http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/topic/6935-rootwindows-razr-blade-droid-razr-41-jb-root-exploit/

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.
Hey Guys, apparently Samsung just pushed out a firmware update to all S4 KitKats and upon my attempt to install it, I receive the following error:

I did see a few post regarding status 7 but all for custom ROM install only.
Wanted to know if anyone heard of any fixes for this specific error.
I appreciate everyone's time.
Seems like you probably froze or deleted an app like Sprint Zone, I'm assuming. Either replace the apps moved/removed or skip the OTA which sucks anyway and manually install the firmware via Odin. This is the preferred method as it is cleaner and you won't need to worry about fixing errors in the system like missing apps. Here is the latest version:

Good call on the Sprint Zone. This was the first app I got rid of once i got the phone. Thanks for the quick respond. I will have to flash it and re-root it; no biggie.
I did notice that tar file is for these versions and I have L720VPUFNAE
L720VPUFNG2; L720SPTFNG2; L720VPUFNG2
Would be ok to flash it to this NG2 instead of AE?

Excellent; greatly appreciate it.
I am helping a friend revive his tablet, and I thought I had this figured out, but cannot get it to work. I am trying to use ADB to sideload an OTA package to the tablet. When I run the sideload command, on the PC the progress just immediately stops at 0%. On the tablet, I see the following...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
verifying update package...
E: footer is wrong
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted
The devices bootloader is locked, and since you cannot get to the operating system, there is no way to set the OEM unlock. I read somewhere that using the "Apply update from ADB" on the tablets recovery utility did not require the bootloader to be unlocked, but maybe that is not correct. I am pretty sure I have downloaded the correct OTA package for the tablet.
More info:
On the top of the tablets screen in the recovery menu it shows:
google/volantis/flounder
6.0.1/MOB30G/2723637
Apparently this happened while he was running an OTA update. Any help would be appreciated!!
Try following this step by step
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/ota
If it doesn't work try as many cords and computers as possible.
I would also try downloading the ota again. It could be a corrupt download.
Sent from my Nexus 9 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Thanks everybody. I ended up downloading the Nougat OTA since that was what he was trying to update it to when it crashed. worked like a charm!!
