Finally got my OTA update from Google, and just like my experience manually updating, my phone will not update
Got the notification message this morning, selected apply update
Phone rebooted, went into the update screen
Phone reboots, goes into the static N1 logo, been there for close to an hour now
So other than reflashing the PASSIMG file I still conveniently have, any other suggestions? When my phone wouldn't flash propelry the manual way, I started to worry that this would happen with the OTA too, and yes 100% stock and unrooted
Has anyone made a PASSIMG version of 2.2?
Holding off on Rooting, might need to send the phone in for replacement for other issues, and don't want to have any problems with HTC
Anyone?????
Would hate to have to wait till Monday to call HTC if at all possible

My phone has had many differet roms on it(SRE, Frankin-Twiz*latest*, OC/UV Kernel, i9000 rom)
anyway, ive flashed back and forth several times between roms, after finding that i like Frankin-Twiz the most, i decided to do the Voodoo lag fix. It was running fine, then i saw that they released the OTA update for our captivate. I flashed back to FACTORY stock rom with the ODIN One Click recovery tool, and had it back to stock.
Now here is where everything goes to ****....
I clicked Check for update... it was searching, then it started to download... my connection failed with 3g(bad reception in my area) i tried to connect with wifi... and clicked check for update again... it said no update available.... so i figured "oh it may have downloaded" and clicked resume update.... the Phone said it needs to reboot, screen goes black, and NOW IT WONT EVEN TURN ON!!!! HELP!!! ive tried to reboot into download and recovery, but it WILL NOT TURN ON!!!!
PLEASE HELP!!!

Exact thing happended to me (and many others). It seems that if you cancel the download, then resume it totally bricks your phone. I'm going to leave the battery out overnight and try it in the morning before calling AT&T.
Happened to me too. Couldn't do anything with it after so I went to exchange it. The new captivate is... how do I say this. Much worse...
Won't lock onto any satellite (where my previous Captivate's GPS was great), screen looks... odd, and this update refuses to connect to the AT&T servers.
I'm actually getting pretty aggravated right now.
Hello. My problem is that my phone that I returned to the factory state again does not receive new update. Also, I prior to the update from 2.2 to 2.2.1 and its volume was 5.6m hboot .. it was 33.00.17 .. Teaching the site returned to 33.0012. But now that I installed the factory rom their phone does not receive any update.

How long have you waited for the update? When I restored mine,it said the phone is up to date if I told it to check for updates,but the next morning when I woke up,it said it had a 2 part update to do. I would say just leave it on and connected to wifi when you go to sleep.
Hello. Thanks for giving the answer. I did a lot of time to wait for the update. Because before connecting to GMAIL update came quickly. But you say you just might want to receive updated once again.
Friend waited a long time but I did not update message. What issue do not really know. Not anyone know how I solve this problem.
Hello everybody.
I am having serious trouble with my phone and I was hoping some of you might be able to help me out.
I just bought my SGS 3 days ago. It came with android 2.1.1 eclair installed.
I had read that that version was not the best ( the first thing I saw when I opened the phone actually was an error screen, and the lag was horrible) so when I got home I decided to try and upgrade it using the official software for it (Kies).
Unfortunately Kies would simply disconnect my phone when I told it to upgrade, after which it would ask me to upgrade again >.>
So I decided to use Odin to flash one of the newer 2.2.1 versions.
I flashed a 'JS3' version with a repartition to 803 pit , but it crashed after rebooting with the dbdata error (which as I learned later was caused by not flashing a full firmware).
I flashed JPU after which worked great. It was fast and responsive.
However my phone kept crashing. Whether on standby, using apps, or just trying to dial a number, it would freeze, start vibrating, and sometime reset, other times just stay frozen until I force shut down it from the power button.
I flashed JS5 afterwards, with full cache clearing, factory reset etc. Still crashed.
Then I tried flashing Darky's 9.2 Ressurection. Loved it but I couldn't even set up my google account because it crashed constantly.
Then I went back to what I believe is the current official version for my location and carrier (Vodafone Romania), JP9 .
After flashing it didn't crash, but after a while (one night), it started crashing like crazy, even wound up with weird gray lines and a freeze in the morning.
I was hoping someone here might know what is wrong with it. I already sent it back to be serviced but I am thinking maybe I broke it somehow and would like to know how so I don't do it again.
The phone is network locked, which I later learned is usually a bad thing for flashing, unfortunately I didn't know about that when I started.
well first of you want to remove the network lock so try these:

next step is to register on www.samfirmware.com (its free) and here is where you will get all the latest official firmwares from samsung..
what you want to do is download (XWJS5) with all 3 files and PIT and flash that through odin with RE-PARTITION..
Before you do that, put your phone into recovery mode (volume up + Home button + Power button ) and do a factory reset / wipe cache ect...
so when you have done that and flashed the new firmware. let me know what the outcome is..
another thing.. ALWAYS MAKE SURE KIES IS CLOSED.... EVEN IN THE ICON TRAY... AND MAKE SURE DRIVERS ARE UP TO DATE.
other than that you shouldn't have any problems
hi, thanks for the advice.
I already did most of that however. I did a factory reset numerous times, and I also did a full repartition flash more than once, to no avail.
I am waiting to get it back from warranty service now but I am wondering what went wrong.
Was it broken when I bought it or did I damage it somehow by trying to flash it while network locked ?
flashing with network lock wouldnt make everything force close. the worst thing that could happen when flashing with network lock is not picking up a signal and possible IMEI corruption.
i think you may have just flashed the wrong ROM, it happens to us all, but the more you do it the more experienced you become and you soon learn methods to restore things..
dont worry too much it will be fine when it comes back from samsung, just be sure to read up properly if you have any doubts.. or ask a question first you will get a reply quicker than you can Unbrick your phone..
My phone seems to hate the 803 pit file. Lots of force closes when I used it. Try using 512, see if that works any better.
Every day I get a notification to update from 24A to 26A and it fails every time. with the error code: 0x1111004. Stock (never been rooted). Do you guys have any idea what I should do? After MKBHD released his Android L overview, It makes me really want to try it one my phone or something to maybe get a bit better battery life. Or should I just call verizon and see if they can help me out because when I plug it into the computer, it doesn't say an update is available but I get the notification to update at least once a day.
Since you are not rooted, there aren't many workaround options.
I can save you some time on the phone with Verizon and tell you what they will say: Do a factory reset and try again.
Factory reset
Hello XDA, I'm having a problem with my grandmother's phone, and I'm in a hurry to get this fixed because she needs it for business. Her phone is an AT&T Galaxy Note 3 SM-N900A unlocked to T-Mobile. It was running Android 4.4.2 KitKat, and I tried to update the phone as I did with my grandpa's, who has the same exact phone before we switched to T-Mobile. Because it was unlocked, the phone couldn't receive the OTA Lollipop update due to the SIM card not being AT&T.
After spending 4 hours searching and trying solutions, I came down to one thread on XDA Forums here. I saw it and I ended up using Odin 3.09 to flash the All-In-one/Non-Wipe Tar file onto it, now my phone is stuck in a boot-loop. Strangely, the Lollipop update seems to be installed as when I plug her phone into my PC/charge it, the battery screen is different than the old one which looked shiny and not flat and material like the Lollipop one. Knox has not been tripped, system status is OFFICIAL, and every time I turn on the phone, it proceeds to boot until the AT&T logo screen, where it freezes mid-way vibrates 2 times and boots the same way over and over again.
Is there anything I can do aside from doing a wipe or factory reset, as I mentioned before she has to use the phone for a business she works for and she had somewhat important work on the phone. The worst part of it all is I was stupid and ignored the warning to back my data up first in the firmware thread. Please help, I'm in a very big hurry to solve this and finish the updating/problem.
P.S If it's not a boot loop and it's called something else, whatever. xD
Did you try using Smartswitch to see if it can see and repair and/or reflash? A factory reset may be the only way to fix it because I believe the file layout for KK and LP and different.
