Ok, I downloaded the VZW/LG update on 8/4/11, but once downloaded it reboots into recovery.. I have Clockworkmod Recovery installed. I don't know where the downloaded file is to install it. I assume if I had stock recovery that it would have automatically installed. Can anyone help?
After reboot from CWM, the update screen comes up and says Update Failed or Incomplete.
Also just a note, the update isn't Gingerbread, it is bug fixes and a couple system app updates.

I downloaded the update... There is an options page where you can choose to defer or deny the update. I clicked deny.

What is the update? It kept resetting my wife's Revolution and waking us up, it hasn't hit my Revolution yet though.
It wouldn't b gingerbread, would it?

Anyone wondering about the OTA please read this!
If you have CWM installed, you won't be able to take the OTA.
For now, I'd suggest staying away from it until I get a chance to look it over first.
Also, if you're running my decrapified ROM, installing the OTA would bootloop your device since decrapified is deodexed and the OTA would be odexed.
In the next day or so (whenever I get access to the OTA zip file), I'll disassemble it and see what changes it contains (like if it has a new recovery, or new kernel, or changes the board configuration) I'll post back here to let y'all know.
UPDATE
It appears that the update is safe to install for those running the revo stock (not decrapified) ROM.
It makes changes to quite a lot-- new boot.img, new LTE RIL, new CDMA RIL, new LTE baseband ROM, changes to the recovery system to bring it in line with normal Android (still not very 'normal', but normal as in "now contains an installrecovery.sh that android can use"), and a bunch of new ODEX files.
Let me stress this and make it perfectly clear: this update will NOT work if you're running decrapified ROM.
In the next day or so, I'll make an updated decrapified ROM (see? I was waiting for a good reason to make an update ) that will include the OTA in it.
Until then, relax and keep hitting that "ignore" button
Hey, what does the new boot animation look like? The only other thing that interests me, is the keyboard pop up in messenging. I hate that.

There are several things that I do not like about the Decrapified ROM
1. The 3 buttons on the bottom (Phone / App Drawer / Browser) sometimes vanish. Only way to fix it is to reboot
2. When you dock the phone into the car mount, the Navigation doesn't do anything. It would be nice to launch your own GPS app or the Google Navigation app. There are other activities that do nothing.
Everything is is great. Love the Google Integration and Love the missing Verizon Crapware on it (VZ Navigator, VZ Music, etc)
If ur using adw go into adw theme settings and reapply your them and the bottom buttons will deappear

Just flash it via revotoolkit...
The baseband image doesn't appear to change much at all, it's only a minor change it appears...
Mine wouldn't take any deferral time greater than 24 hours....and out of the blue it started about 10 hours after I deferred for 24....
Mine rebooted to Clockwork, I selected reboot, it came back up, displayed a page noting the failure, and everything appears to be working fine -- 30 minutes and counting. We'll see if it tries again...

Yeah, I PM'd you on that.. revo tool kit not working, download file only 36k, even attempted to download the .tar (via Windows7) described in the output in the program and the countdown just keeps looping. There may be something wrong with the files or the file host...
disregard.. just attempted download in Dolphin Browser on my phone and it is downloading the 6.73mb file recovery-stock.tar from 199.167.134.110/private/iomonster/files/revo-cwm/recovery-stock.tar.gz
So i should be able to follow same instructions I used to manually install cwm to install this, correct? Or I could just wait for the new decrap ROM, but I am very impatient.. lol
I am giving up!!!!!
ok.. getting really mad now. I successfully and manually flashed the stock recovery image and verified that with revo toolkit. So applied the update and it boots into stock recovery but not even half way through the arrow becomes an " ! " and reboots and says update failed or incomplete. So now I will put back CWM and wait for the next version of decrap.

I'm running Decrap1.1 and couldn't stop the attempted upgrade, since mine wouldn't respond to any attempts to defer. So, I went poking around under the hood. Just on a hunch, I used Titatium Backup to freeze a program called Verizon Package Installer, thinking that might interupt any attempt to actually update. The update loader ran and failed, gave me a warning, and I haven't seen it again since. I also am having ZERO problems with the phone. It's like it went away and isn't coming back.
Do you think my package loader freeze might do that?

does it work?
Im having similar issues with my 2.2 installation. I have it installed on my wife's non-rooted N1.
Not just that but the market is not even usable. Even if I clear cache.
Again, her phone is not rooted, I wipped everything from her phone then applied Froyo and its been a nightmare. Her phone isn't even stable enough to use and I cant seem to figure it out.
I need to find a way back to 2.1 without having to root her phone. She is adamant about me not doing that to her phone even though Ive rooted all the phones I've ever used with no issues.
I was having the same problem on my N1. Started suddenly two days after the manual upgrade to 2.2. The phone would either freeze to a black screen or sometimes the live wallpaper would continue but the phone was unresponsive even to the power button. Needed to pull the battery to restart.
It stopped after I:
* Turned off live wallpaper
* Uninstalled LauncherPro Beta
* Removed the Pure Calender Widget (was broken after 2.2 update anyway)
* Charged the battery (was down to below 10% when it started happening repeatedly).
Anyone one of them (or none of them) could have been the culprit. My guess it was one of the last two (PureCalender or battery) but haven't had time to troubleshoot it. Try some of these and see if it helps.
Ive tried all that on her phone. I just wiped it again completely and re flashed just in case that was the issue. Phone still had all the issues described in this thread.
I wiped the sd card, wiped all previous system files via the stock recovery and re flashed the update zip. You cant get anymore clean than that and its still so unstable the phone its unusable. I have to either hope soft booting works or pull the battery as a last ditch.
Is there any way I could downgrade her phone to 2.1 without rooting? I tried the shipping rom in the sticky above but it seems that isn't totally legit for stock use because the phone doesn't like how its signed.
I guess I could call google/htc tomorrow but who knows where that'll get me. The only bonus iud that her phone is not rooted so she didn't really have her warranty voided.

Yes until now it does. Sometimes the power button is reacting a little late but i havent had to pull the battery yet with the older radio.
You might want to download it again and flash that to see if you had a corrupt download. First copy all data from the sd and partition it. Just make everything fat. I havent used the stock recovery in ages so I cant recall if you can partition from there, if you cant, do it on the pc. Wipe everything that the stock recovery can wipe. Then try to flash your new download of the update. You can do this fairly quickly and its worth a try before you go through the process of reverting to 2.1.

Yes, I was rooted, but I had just done a factory restore, it returned it to factory state, although I still had the superuser app in the app drawer. I then immediately downloaded the OTA update and it installed fine. I had the new youtube and all. So I then downloaded ROM Manager and tried to do a restore so I could get all my apps back, but that F**ked it all up! I have since had to do a odin one click restore and now I cant get the update to go past 50%, so i'm SOL now.
I'm rooted using the stock ROM and did the update yesterday and it installed 100% with no problems. It did hang at 50% for around 30 seconds or more maybe.
Im rooted with all att bloatware removed. It failed at 50%, rebooted and said the update failed. However gps absolutely works now, so apparently whatever it did managed to fix at least the gps. It said jh7 in system info. Battery life still seems to suck though. I cant wait for froyo to screw everything up 1000 times worse than this.

I was rooted with the bloatware removed and with sideloaded i found a new Update.zip that removed the root and the update will download but just says "Preparing". Then says "Update is failed" and reboots says it did not complete.
Im rooted. While I didnt get the extra office app or whatnot my GPS is working at least 50 times better. I am locked onto 8 satellites within 5-8 seconds indoors. (using gps test) Going outside only makes my reception better.
When I initially purchased my captivate it was shakey at best. My OTA update said it failed but im showing JH7 and my GPS is now working well.
like everyone else. I'm rooted with stock rom and the update did not succeed. I'm hoping that when 2.2 is released, it replaces everything regardless of being rooted or not, so that I can start from a clean slate.
i tried to return to stock via odin one-click but that did not allow the update to run.
Rooted, unlocked, and successful update. Via EDGE, no less.
did anyone get it to succeed that left the bloatware removed during the update process?
Just updated got to 100 and failed. It shows JH7 even though I got a notification saying update failed. Now youtube widget is dead and software update doesnt even open anymore.

Visit the market place search for quick office. See if there is a special version there called Quick office for captivate. There was for me. FYI mine said it failed but the gps is now scary fast, it was always good for me. About 30 seconds. But I just got a no error lock inside my apartment build in 3 seconds.

Same situation here.
I don't think people should be getting their hopes up for a 2.2 update anytime soon though. Something just tells me it might be a while if it ever even happens, but that just my speculation.
What could be causing this??
It could be a variety of things. You say you're on 886, but not much else. Are you rooted? If yes, have you froze apps or removed bloat? Go into detail on what your setup is.

Same build here. Same problem as original poster. I've only had a few minutes to try this, but I am going to attempt to apply the official update manually through clockwork. The question I need is where the update gets downloaded to in the phone, so I can move it to the SD card. If that doesn't work I think you need to un-root and start over again.
The update is downloaded to /cache

Looks like your "dnsmasq" is different. Did you happen to use the "dnsmasq" posted in the thread on how to enable the bluetooth PAN stuff?
Since this phone is so specific with the system and apps, always make a backup of the stock load before making any kind of changes.

How did you get Webtop back on your phone?
I have tried everything that is on here and, nothing will work.
I did the root thing. Then installed all the different leaked versions. Wanted to get back to stock and nothing would work to get it back to stock until I read about dhacker29's will get it back to stock and, ever since I did that my Webtop Version says unavailable in about phone.
I have tried to go and install the leaked versions again and, they fail also.
I used masqed crusader for DNS stuff...perhaps if someone were to post an unaltered dnsmasq file I can get it to work?
I had this same issue. Replacing dnsmasq with the attached file (from an early Nandroid) did the trick and let the update install properly. I figure it's because I used Masqued Defender or SetDNS.
A Friend SBF and got the update
THANK YOU!
I am also having a similar error when updating. The ota failed when running automatically so I tried manually from stock recovery.
This is the error I am getting

If you flashed leaked builds, your kernel was updated. There is NO way to downgrade the kernel (not even through RSD Lite or Fastboot). The update checks to make sure your kernel is stock 5.5.886, and since it is not, the update fails. We currently have no way to go to OTA 5.5.893 from any phone in which a leak is currently or has previously been installed.
I am stock 5.5.886 & getting the error message as well

The problem is that installed all the different leaks - specifically, trying to install the 5.5.893mr1 leak - that's the one that broke webtop.
Back then, when people were installing those incremental leaks, we figured out that Webtop broke, and there is a complicated way to fix it IIRC (thanks to cellzealot) but the easier way was to simply revert to 5.5.886 and then use the full file upgrade to 5.7.893.
However, if you go to 5.7.893, you'll actually be ahead of the OTA update and thus will not be able to apply it.
The alternative is to revert to stock and apply only the leaked 5.5.893 update - it's the exact same identical file as was released starting Monday.
See my post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20282764#post20282764
I can't get it to install either. 5.5.886, nothing leaked, nothing frozen or deleted. Rooted using Pete's method. I get no details. It just says failed to install update. Any help would be great.

Extract the update from your /cache folder off the root directory. Move it to your SD cards root directory. Then power off your phone. Hold down both volume buttons and the the power button. The phone will display a menu. Hit volume down to highlight recovery, then hit volume up. You are now at stock recovery. Should be an upside down triangle. Hit both volume keys again now you should have a menu. Highlight and click install update. Then choice the file off the SD card.
When it fails it will tell you what failed and why.

Hey guys, not sure if already posted..
But looks like the official android 4.2 is out now for Nexus 7
From Android Headlines:
That’s right, today is becoming a very busy day indeed for those that are Nexus fans and owners. With the news that the Galaxy Nexus is getting its fresh helping of Android 4.2 we were all wondering when the Nexus 7 would be allowed to join the party after all, the N7 did get to the Jelly Bean party first now, didn’t they? There’s no telling just how long you’ll be waiting for the update but the word is that the JOP40C, the same build for the Galaxy Nexus, is now making its way to Nexus 7s all over the place.
As always, there is an alternative to updating your device if you have absolutely no patience and quite frankly, we don’t blame you one bit. If you want to know how to get 4.2 on your Nexus 7 then read on and download this zip file before you get started!
First of all download the zip file above, do NOT rename this file.
Reboot your Galaxy Nexus while holding the Volume Down button – this will take you to the fastboot menu
From there, hit start and then hit the Volume Up key to get to Recovery and hit the Power Button
If you’re stock – with no CWM – then you should see a red exclamation point, after this hit the Power Button and the Volume Up button
From here, select “apply update from adb”
Then go ahead and open up a command prompt – terminal in Linux and Mac OS X – navigate to the same directory as the downloaded zip and input this command: adb sideload 094f6629314a.signed-nakasi-JOP40C-from-JZO54K.094f6629.zip
Reboot and then you should be in Jelly Bean 4.2!
Of course, if you’re like a whole lot of other Nexus 7 owners out there and have gone a little rogue and installed a custom recovery and so on you can just simply copy it to your device and install it like you would any other zip!
Have fun and let us know how it goes in the comments!
Seriously? did you happen to check the thread below yours?

Also I see some copy & paste work in OP lol

Thank!
Worked for me, OTA Rootkeeper, flashed in CWM, adb in and removed recover-from-boot.p, OTA Rootkeeper restore.
It seems to be moving a little slow, I think it's updating media stuff or such, so if it takes a few minutes to settle in don't freak out. It took about 5 minutes for me and it's been fine since.
Probably have to reflash recovery, not sure. Either way, easy.
Few more notes.. Apps which had FORCED themselves "to sd" are probably uninstalled now, you'll need to reinstall 'em with TiBu or Market. I had 3 like this, all three were "gone". Just the app, the data is fine if you use TiBu.
Nova's dock isnt' working for me, it's a dead zone. Not sure what's going on there. Might be a bug in Nova now, never seen this before. EDIT: Check for a Beta update; fixed already
Someone on IRC said they saw files move around on their storage, but so far I haven't see any app issues, but any SD backups might back up everything again if it's moved. TiBu, etc, are all happy, so..
DO NOT ADD A USER. It has made my Nexus 7 slow as hell. If I find a way to fix it I'll post.
When can someone post a video of 4.2 on the N7
Hey guys my N7 is completely stock is there anyway I can put 4.2 on my N7 or do I have to wait until it is pushed out ota and if I have to wait does anyone know how long it might be THANKS AND GOD BLESS YOU

I installed the leaked copy of the 4.2 keyboard a while back. Today, the 4.2 update I'm trying to manually install in recovery is failing. I assume the two are linked. Is there a way to nuke the 4.2 keyboard instance off the tablet so I can properly install the 4.2 update? Or is this grounds for backing up my data and flashing a full 4.1.2 and then upgrading to 4.2?

You can install the old 4.1.2 keyboard and reupdate again. OR you can reinstall the entire OS to 4.1.2, then upgrade to 4.2 again

Ah okay, I didn't think I could somehow revert back. I'll see if I can track down the 4.1.2 keyboard... :good:

I found that deleting the User and rebooting fixed me, did it for you?
And I don't know if it's related or not, but Nova keeps screwing up my widgets. They're gone, disconnected, or duplicated.. I had 5 of the same widget in places where other widgets had been.....

CWM zip install keeps failing for me, just saying aborted. I've removed some of the system apps I didn't need, but edited the updater.sh script to also remove checking for system apps. Any way I can find where the failure is?
I was on stock 4.1.2 and just flashed via CWM and it worked flawlessly.
Also, I don't seem to have any speed issues with 2 users. The switch screen takes a few seconds but it works like a charm, now my wife can have her area and i can have mine (yay)

Yes, but then it did with 4.1.2 already.
I Have created a CM7 rom for rooted 621 and it should a lot easier to use now that I have tested personally and everything works as it should no need for gapps as it has vendor.apk in it and it will update to playstore.
Flashing Instructions
1:Back-up always
2:full wipe
3:install rom via CWR or bootstrap
4:Gapps arent needed but you may flash just to be comfortable
5: reboot
6: leave me feedback
7: enjoy

I can't flash it yet because my computer is in the repair shop and I never do anything risky with my phones unless my computer is nearby

Well Im very new at modding Droid X, but I have an important question...
Is the hdmi fully working?
Or is there any rom which make it work as it should?
I mean something like a mirror.
Thanks!
Downloading Now. I just hope it's for the rooted .621 Non-Milestone hack. The Milestone hack (for root) is .604.
Sent from my DROIDX using xda premium
Update:
First I tried it without gapps. Everything booted fine, but there was no market nor would accounts/ sync let me add Google account.
So, I rebooted into recovery, which worked fine, and flashed gapps.
This time on boot, I actually got the Droid X welcome screen, was able to put in Google info, and market initiator ran and updated.
After that everything worked fine.
Tested Bluetooth, Messages, Gps and Calls. Didn't get chance to try Wifi yet, but I'm sure it works since everything-else does.
The only thing that Would be better is an updated Superuser. The 1 included will NOT update SU Binary. I think it's the old edify binary. Even by updating Superuser in the market WON'T help. Although an easy fix is to get RootUninstaller and uninstall Rom Superuser, then download new 1 from the market and install.
Keep up the hard work. Nice Rom.
Finally, does this works for any other gb kernel besides .621?
Anybody please tell us!
Nope, but maybe yes

Nope, but I may have a bad download as I forgot to check the Md5 sum before I flashed. Install was aborted. I can't try again right now because I have another phone to flash and have to go to bed early tonight.
And thank your for the review I've been waiting for a review like that I've created a couple roms and no one has have gave me so much input

No prob Kiladar. I think if someone is going to comment on someones work, they should at least review it and be as informative as possible. It makes it easier
on the devs to look at potential probs/fixes too.
Oh yea, I also got to looking into your system/app folder in your zip. The vending.apk is Not in there, which i would say is why I had to flash the gapps. Just wanted you to know.
Also there is no "boot.img" (which is kernel right?) in the new dwnload.
Right, I will update OP saying to flash gapps rather then say not needed

wifi works just fine with it, and I agree bout the updated superuser since you cant uninstall the one you have with it which means you also cant update to the new superuser because they are different volumes but over all nice ROM.:good:

I had it working on mine but my .605 was the .621/.605 deodexed hacked version cause I was on the .621 before I did the work around on the magic 5 route, originally I did the .604 work around but it should work on the .605 stock rooted, but then again I was also running the kernel for the .621 sooooo if the kernel is the key for running it maybe you cant.
Try another download, maybe you did get a bad DL

I tried this again but, I think the real problem is with my microSD card. I have subsequently tried to flash other roms and have had other aborts as well. I know that the md5's on those checked out. I was able to flash a cm9 based rom and got it set up just fine. All this from the same card on the same phone. Sooo I am attempting to format the card just in case I have bad sectors or something.
Luckily my DX is no longer activated and just keeps me from killing my SGS3 with flashes.:silly:

I hear ya, I had the same prob with sd card so i formatted mine as well, problem was still there though. whenever i tried to install a rom from sd card via rom manager the problem was i kept getting the message saying waiting for sd cart to mount then it would say error bla bla bla sending log file to cwm ect ect ect.... i dont know exactally how i fixed that, all i know is i installed another rom, like cm7 or cm9 for instance and after that whenever i went to back up rom it worked fine ever since.... maybe something flashes over correcting the sd card problem when you install a rom... I know rom manager checks to verify the marker on sd card and thats what your problem is I believe.
Try doing this, try installing a rom cm7/cm9 without making a backup (i know you could lose everything if it fails but its the only way i know that fixed mine) after you have installed cm7/9 go to rom manager and hit the Backup Current Rom it should reboot you to cwm recovery and make an auto backup, if it does this without throwing up the waiting for sd card to mount error stuff and it runs the backup program and then reboots you it should fix your sd card problems.....
Review this rom
this is by far a ROM with the least lag by far i tried liquid ICS and plenty others don't know what it is but the lag is really minimal runs really smooth i only have this for like 3 hours but will update soon
pls hit thanks if i helped
