hey my phone has been asking me to update for the last few hours and i dont want to it to update in my sleep is there anyway to block the update without killing internet data to my phone.
Download the update but don't install it. Then move it from /cache to your SD card.

Did you check date and time on the phone? It gets off by a month after installing a new ROM sometimes...
Sent from my Optimus 2X using XDA App
Yeah date and time are fine
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
I had some issues installing that seemed to resolve themselves after time... But there where no messages, just nothing after the download.

I checked for the update and it's available. I don't want to lose root though. Will someone post details after updating? Root, bloat, good or bad?

You will want to re-bloat your phone before updating or it will fail. Root will be lost but 1-click root still works on the update.

I tried checking, and get the message "Check for update is not available at this time. Try again later."
It seems something is definitely up, as normally I would just receive a message that my system is up to date.
I don't see why you guys just haven't used the fastboot or .zip already... been available for a month.

It will fail if you removed/froze any apps.

It's something I was just waiting to be ota personally. A lot of the issues it is said to fix never really bothered me except for the blue tint in pictures.

Assuming you did not remove any stock apps besides the two Gameloft demos and just froze the apps using Titanium:
1. Unfreeze the apps using batch mode in Titanium
2. Install the update
3. Reroot using the one click method. I unfroze and updated at work and now just finished rooting again.
Yeah it's random. Have two non-rooted D3's one of them got pushed the update and the other one is stuck checking for the update. Came here to see what was up.
Got the ota update this morning on my stock D3. Downloaded and installed and the install failed and then the home screen came up but with no 3G connection. Pulled the battery and nothing happened. Called Verizon and they had me pull the battery and then do a hard reset. Still no 3G connection. Got Motorola on the phone and they had me do a manual reset, but still no 3G connection. Verizon is sending me a replacement phone overnight.
Fail. Lol

I unfroze the apps before trying. Nothing was previously removed. Anything that was frozen has unfrozen properly.
EDIT: Found the reason for the message: Social applications was set to "sync over wifi only" which was causing the message. Now I get the "checking for available update. Please wait..." and it's been going about 3 minutes so far, no update found. Does not look like data is being sent/received while it's checking, either.
Sorry for posting this here... I have been a long time reader but this is the first time I've not been able to find an answer.
I am trying to download the new bionic update files to my phone to perform the updates... i have performed all the steps to return to stock... and now i cant download. I get a message that download was unsuccessful. Any ideas why? My sd card is mounted and i can view all files in root explorer.

Are you not able to download anything or is it just those files?

Edit: Sorry I misread your post.
Try a different browser. Sometimes the stock browser acts weird.
I've had good success with opera mobile.

Im not able to download anything regardless what program I'm using. Tried downloading directly from the browser and the xda premium app. It looks like it is working, says download starting, then i get a download failed notification. I've factory reset, ive cleared cache, ive even changed sd cards. Nothing...

Have you tried wifi or no wifi or both?
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda premium
I've tried both. I was able to fix the issue this evening by completely formatting my external sd card via mass storage. I tried to download first with a quick format, and only worked when doing a full format. There has got to be another way. Now, if I can just figure out how to get to. 893 (forever root and fast boot, yada, yada, and I still get errors) and also figure out why after installing DT's current rom, the my apps page in the market app, does not allow me to see my apps, just a black screen.
Thanks for the suggestion!

I had a similar problem. I had to use r3l3ased and forever root, then path saver.
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using XDA App
Had the same problem. I have narrowed it down to either a bootstrap issue or one of the mods I used in the past. I used R3L3AS3DRoot and 43V3R Root before doing 2 separate OTA's, one to get back to 893 than the next to 902. It takes some time, sure, but it worked. I'm now waiting for my apps to reinstall.
I tried to go into stock recovery just a sec ago. and when i click vol up to select it . i get an exclamation point with the android guy below it? anyone know why this is happening or what i can do? thanks guys

derp soory i figure it out. i forgot you are supposed to hit vol up and down at the same time
I had similar issues getting a corrupted file. So I ended up going back to stock 893 using the fxz and rsd lite. That put me back to true factory setup, and back on the OTA wagon. So I forever rooted and took the update direct from Verizon and let the phone update itself. Now "poof" running rooted 902.

I had a similar issue, I did a hard reset of my phone, and updated fine afterwards.

What does it ask you to do next?
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using XDA App
When you toggled to safe mode, which.toggle option did you select? One will back you up and the other one won't I don't believe.
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using XDA App
I just did toggle safe system after done it says safe system is now enabled I would flash ics I think just want to reboot but just making sure I didn't screw anything up while in recovery
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I didn't flash any roms just rooted running the exploit and then enabled toggle safe system so I should probably just reboot and be fine but I just want to make sure
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Once you toggle to safe, then you flash ics. Even if it didn't back up your original system, the worst that should happen when going back to your normal system is that it will take you back to a fresh install and you will need to set your accounts back up and reinstall your apps

If you don't flash ics (or any rom) when your in safe mode and reboot your phone, it won't load because there isn't a version of android there.

flashed ics and it gave me bad/installation aborted going to try and transfer on sd card with my wifes phone with a fresh download see if that works and it should go onto external correct???
I believe I have mine in internal. I think you can install it from either location.
You may want to clear the cache and stystem data before flashing if you didn't. Sometimes that helps.

at this point i am worried about my battery dying on me and i am just sol...
ok looks like was just a bad md5 or something so when i flash google apps do i wipe anything prior to flashing that???
cool got it up just setting up but i have to say this rooting proccess was so much more work than i made it out to be but can't hurt to be too careful i guess
