but....

there's nothing wrong with verification.....
only when it is almost done with the installtion...
it will automatically abort it...

what should i do with it?
thanks
If you want to un-root and go back to stock firmware, just flash DREAIMG.nbh. Copy the file to your SD card, power down, then hold in the camera button while powering up. It should find the file and say "press action button to continue" press the trackball, and let it do its thing.
Once it's complete, reboot with call+menu+end
If you can live with pre-cupcake for a few days, it'll eventually update over the air on its own.
thanks...
but i actually root this phone from the Singapore Version HTC Dream....
does that matter?
thank you!!!
haha!!
tragedy....
i'm using ATT now...i've no internet from my mobile....

stuck at the set up page
Hi,
I have a complete stock non rooted SLCD N1 currently running FRG33.
I have been notified that the 2.2.1 update is ready to download but all i get is download failed?
The download is 82.4mb. It wont download via HSDPA or Wifi. I can get through to the internet no problem but it just wont download the update..
Any ideas?
Your Hboot is Higher
Download and install manually instead of letting the OTA do it for you?
argh.. didnt want to have to mess with it anymore and just wanted stock OTA updates
ok, so what do i need to do to get this to work ?
The phone isnt rooted however the bootloader is unlocked but has the stock recovery ...
Download the OTA file. Rename it update.zip and place it on the root of your SD card.
Boot into recovery (Power on with Vol- held, then pick recovery from the menu). When you reach the Android & warning triangle screen, hold Power & Vol+ to enter the menu. Pick install update.
Please forgive the baby questions from an Android Newbie.
I used the phone to check for software updates, one was available - I believe from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2, I selected install the update, and now I just get a flashing android symbol.
I have tried to connect to Kies to do a recovery, but I cannot connect,afater a long "trying to connect" I am getting the message "device unresponsive please reboot", I have updated to the latest version of Kies, tried different cables and different ports.
I can reboot the phone into download mode but do not see any of the other options that are supposed to be available. Kies does not connect in either download or flashing Android symbol mode
Suggestions as to where I go from here are welcome.

Do a factory reset from recovery. Press vol up+home+power button
You're still safe if you still can see download mode.
If resetting doesn't help then download firmware from sammobile or from here http://www.officialrom.com/samsung/GT-N7000/ and flash through odin

Thanks for this, factory reset only puts it into download mode,
But the Odin solution worked like a dream. many thanks
As documented in the ATT Stock Firmware thread, if a phone has the ANDROID 4.3 ( I537UCUBML2 (4.3) ) release, steps to update/upgrade to 4.4 are as follows.
1. It may be possible to update normally via OTA using ATT sim and simply access Settings, About Device, Software Update
2. Download from the link above (ATT Stock Firmware Thread) the Android 4.4 ( I537UCUCNE3 (4.4.2) ) 444 MB file,
3. Rename the 444 MB file to update.zip
4. Set SG4A phone into Developer Mode and enable USB debugging
5. Move the update.zip to a microSD card and insert into phone
6. Hold down simultaneously Volume Down, Power and Home Button and wait for Stock recovery/Downloading menu to appear
7. Select update.zip and let phone update ML2 to NE3
Did I miiss anything ? Is everything above in correct sequence ?
Yes, I understand that the phone being Unlocked has no bearing on the outcome, the steps are the same with a locked vs unlocked device.
Yes, I understand I can root later and that it may not be possible to downgrade due to bootloader changes in this release but the goal here is simply to Update/Upgrade a Stock ATT Android 4.3 to 4.4
Thank you
Just documenting my progress....
While all my ML2 stock unrooted phones FIND the ATT update file (444 MB) simply by using About Device, Software Update and download this file just fine over WIFI, they all fail the actual update process.
Now am not sure why that is happening as they all progress to 29 percent update after reboot, then display Update failed/unsuccessful and reboot again, booting up to 4.3 ML2
Again, these are stock unrooted ATT i537 SG4A phones, only thing is that they are all Unlocked.
Am also not sure what will occur if I manually try to update via Stock recovery, Perhaps nothing bad at all, if even in the worst case these just fail and then reboot back to 4.3
Just how do I go about applying the downloaded NE3, now moved over to a microSD card ?
1. powered phone back on holding volume down, power and home and am sitting on "Downloading..Do not turn off target !!!"
2. had setup phone to developer mode, usb debuggin enabled and I had installed latest Samsung USB drivers on laptop

Volume up + power will get you in stock recovery...select apply update from SD card, then choose the update.zip file.

1. Volume Down + Power + Home gets me to warning message
2. Volume Up gets me to "Downloading......." message
3. Volume Up + Power does *nothing* and if I hold it for more than 5 seconds the phones shut Off.
Even if I try to just gently and briefly touch Volume Up + Power, nothing happens. The long hold does a shut down.
Have tried this now on 6 different SG4A phones running i537 and ML2 ATT Stock image
Phones are not rooted and unlocked, no mods ever done to any of them.

You have to look in the upper left corner screen, you will see, in blue, in very small letters, something like recovery loading or starting...as soon as you see that, release buttons, should load to recovery. I know on my phone, timing is everthing...too early and phone starts, too long and phone shuts off.

You mean, RELEASE VOLUME UP + POWER ? Or RELEASE ... Volume Down + Power + Home ?
Sorry to say, the text is too small for me to read so I can not see when it or anything else shows up.

Volume up + power....I think other than using the stock recovery (you have to use it to abd sideload), you should be able to Odin ML2 and then take the OTA, provided you are on a carrier that sent it out...stateside means AT&T.

OK
So even though I am running stock, un-modded, non-rooted, ATT ML2 v4.3 already, I need to re-do I537UCUBML2 all over ?
that seems odd,... being these are new phones but if ML2 must be applied on top of ML2, ok then ...
and yes, these are on ATT

There maybe something in your original 4.3 that won't allow update...wouldn't hurt to start with a fresh 4.3.
I started with a fresh ML2, downloaded the 1.2 GB image and used Odin 3.09 to flash
Phone works fine but can't seem to be able to master the subtle keypresses to run Stock Recovery and apply the 444 MB NE3 update to v4.4.2
As soon as I press Volume Up and Power after seeing the "Downloading...." phone either reboots or shuts off
Will keep trying

That's because you're using the key combo to enter download mode when you should be using the key combo to enter recovery. Search for the key combo you should be using, it's been posted a ton of times.
Found this video, it helped to figure it out
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8TOJkBOZfs
Interestingly, the 444 MB update from ML2 to NE3 using a microSD card wiped all settings on the phone, accounts, downloads, etc... but of course once signed in to google, restored all back in about one hour
towelroot also worked but not sure if it is designed NOT to be persistent in that I had to access it again when phone was deliberately turned off to enable SU again. perhaps that is by design. it does enable apparently SU for "this session only"
Hi all,
Great forum by the way!
My phone is not rooted and it is running JB 4.3, kernel 3.4
As i mentioned in the title, I'm having trouble with the "Action Memo" and "Scrapbooker" apps.
Actually, they are not there to start with. When i open an "Air Command" menu, i can choose them,however, i couldn't find them in the app list.
When i choose "scrapbooker" from the "Air Command" menu, i can actually create something, but i can't conveniently find it later since there is no app/app icon in my list. When i choose the "Action memo" from "Air Command" menu, nothing happens.
I tried restoring the device while at the end the issue remained.
Q. What can I do to get the apps running without rooting the phone?
One more thing if i may, i read that there is a KK update available for the phone, however, (My guess) since i'm not on at&t i can't upgrade. Getting "No Updates Available" kind of notification.
Q. Is there a way to upgrade the os without rooting the phone?
Also, it is important to note that the phone is not used with at&t, it is actually being used overseas with local operator.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
