Hello,
My Venue 8 7000 wont update. I keep getting the an Android update notification (that is supposed to fix stagefright, etc.). After starting the update it ends with the tipped over Android with the exclamation mark. Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this? BTW I did a factory reset and the issue still exists.
Thanks
Any ideas? Thanks
I'm having the same problem:
download package
request to reboot
after some time the tablet reboots and ends in fastboot screen
from there clicking normal reboot ends up in same system as before, asking again for same update
tried twice and got always the same behaviour
thanks
I would like to know as well
any update?
Anyone?

I got my Prime 2 days ago and after charging and powering it up for the first time, it began downloading a firmware update. I chose to install it, the Prime rebooted, and after the android logo with moving gears, it showed an android logo with an exclamation sign.
I rebooted it and then I got a notification that said "system update failed(2): unknown error". I then attempted to manually check for a firmware update, but I got "There is no update available for your device currently".
I tried copying the ASUS update zip to a microsd, I tried draining the battery, I did multiple factory resets, and it still won't update or even find OTAs.
I also tried with the installed version again (8.8.3.33) and even that resulted in the android + exclamation symbol.
Does anyone have any idea how to solve this issue? Or at least what could be causing it?
Anyone had a problem updating to 651.167.26.en.EU??
I've tried to update (many times), the phone shuts down starts the install, gets about half way then reboots. When it does reboot I get a message saying the update failed. I've even done a factory reset (which I hated) but now joy. Grrrrr
Has anyone had this issue and have you manage to solve it??
Also does anyone know what location the phone saves the update to?
Perhaps you're lucky it failed because I am having the following problem after the update:
After updating wireless is stuck and won't either turn on or off.. in settingsmenu on the wlan activate button it just says "error" in the second line. on push it says "activating" for some time the drops back to error. So my question: Does anyone else have this an what can I do to correct this?
PS: Moto Support just says Factory reset but there is upfront no way I am doing this without having tried anything else..
You could always just root it and install a custom rom. My app will will root it in 1 click.

Just installed the latest android update on my Yoga Book. after the restart the device appeared to hang on a black screen as if it had crashed. After a few minutes I forced a reboot by holding the power button for 15 secs.
The device then booted to say that the encryption of the drive failed and only allowed me to reformat.
it seems the new update forcefully encrypts the user data without warning you causing what looks like a crash, so for those of your installing the update, just leave the device do its thing when you get the black screen.
Guess who just did the same mistake, after installing the update it rebooted, but screen was black for 5 min so I figured it got stuck booting.
Best user interface, use a black screen on boot to do an uninformed encryption. Quality company Lenovo.
Oh thank you guys i am not alone
Is this still an issue?

I got my Yoga Book last week and I installed all updates immediately. I had no problems to install everything. And tbh it's not a real issue since you have just to be patient - but it's not ok that the tablet does something and not informing you.
Samsung A8 (2018), (SM-A530F/DS) homescreen stuck in "phone is starting" after update
Hi guys, yesterday i did a software update for my samsung A8 (2018) phone and it was going normal until i received an error message at the end of the update. My phone continued to boot successfully but now the homescreen is always stuck in "phone is starting" message.
The phone itself works and i am able to open other apps via google playstore but the homescreen is unusable. I have tried doing cache partition wipes and factory resets, i also thought it was a soft-brick so i tried FRP hijacker with the soft-brick fixer but it just says "check connection" even though my PC successfully scanned the port of my phone. When i open my phone in recovery mode it says "firmware is not valid" at the end of the command line.
I have tried searching online for similar issues but most users have experienced bootloops which is not exactly the problem i have right now.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks

Taken from Samsung:
Devices with Android 9 or higher will automatically enable file-based encryption if it has a PIN, pattern, or password set up. During the boot process, the phone will display "Phone is starting..." and the screen may be blank for a few seconds while encryption is taking place. However, if you feel it takes too long for your phone to start, you can disable the encryption to cut a few seconds off of the boot time.

Hi jwoegerbauer, thank you for the reply however unfortunately i don't think the "phone is starting" protocol is actually working. I only experienced this problem right after the latest software update and that was about last night, I have actually tried waiting for the phone to load up but it actually never does (even though i left my phone idle and waited for hours). I am fairly certain that it is a glitch/bug caused by the error at the end of the software update however i am not sure on what to do in such an occasion.
So as to clarify, the software update DID NOT complete as there was an error/failed message right at the end of it but while looking up in the internet i found out that apparently software updates are permanent and cannot be reverted back?
If that is the case then i am really in a pinch right now as i cannot go back to my old software version and yet the new one also does not work.

Hi,
I tried to install the latest software update which was available in Software Updates on my SM-A107F phone.
It downloaded with no issues first time and I was prompted to restart and install the update, which I did.
The update process starts and appears to run to completion (gets to 99% of "Installing System Updates...") and then the screen goes blank / phone turns off.
I've restarted the phone multiple times with consistent outcomes. I have not rooted this phone, installed TRWP or anything similar. I think I may have enable developer mode options but nothing else.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue? And have you been able to get around it?
Regards
