I just got a notification from my phone that there was an update available (the supposed GPS fix).
So I let it download and install the update. It rebooted to a white screen with a progress bar. Once it hit 100% it said "Update is failed". Then when it booted up it's back at the device management screen an it says "The update was not completed. No update is applied to your phone."
Under settings it says baseband version is now JH7, but I dont think it is because USB tethering is still in there, I read where that was taken out some time ago. How can I tell if the update really installed?
If it didnt install, why didnt it? Was it because I was rooted? Do we have to be at completely stock JF6 to get the update?
I had my phone mostly stock, all I had done was:
rooted, modded settings.db for non-market apps, installed circle battery meter, installed mobile wifi AP.
Any clues?
Having the same issue. I'm not really sure what to make of it.

I tried and tried to get the update to work, it kept crapping out on me. so finally I gave up and just went and got designgears version OTA-JH7.zip and loaded it through clockwork recovery. It seems to be the full update and its stable, unlike after the failed 100% OTA update.
I love the Engrish used, lol. They couldn't even put "Update failed" or "Update is failing"

Is it safe to keep up date if I'm rooted?

Do you lose root buy applying that update and is there a simple way of disabling the stock "System Updater"? (regarding designgears version OTA-JH7.zip) question is for derek4484 thx
Hello All,
I used to be on RoDrIgUeZsTyLe MUIU rom and bunch of other custom roms. Every rom has its ones pros and cons but were not very stable. So, I thought I will go back to stock. So, I flash stock rom and stock recovery and received OTA update and installed the updates. Now my phone is on the below version.
Android Version 2.2.1
Build Number - FRG83D
Market Version - 2.12
Baseband Version - 32.26.00.28U_4.06.00.12_7
I was able to successfully download and install many apps but whenever I try to download YouTube I always get "Installation of Youtube unsuccessfull" message. Also, I researched and saw that some people in Europe on Vodafone rom are having this issue. How do I know if my android version is totally stock?
Do you guys have any ideas on how I can successfully install this app without having to root my phone again? I would like to stay stock and unrooted if possible.
Thanks.
use titanium or manually uninstall the current youtube app, reboot then try to install again. Its because its a system app currently. youll probably have to do the same for car home, street view and a few others
I am un rooted, so I won't be able to use titanium. how do I uninstall manually though? I didn't have any issues installing other apps like street view etc.
Make sure the app is installed on your phone, and unmount the SD before updating...

I tried un mounting SD card and installing and still that didn't work. Thanks for trying to help though.
Try uninstalling the old version of YouTube first.

....if you do not have root access how were you flashing an miui rom?
I was getting the exact same thing as you were, all you need to do is remove the old youtube app
good luck
Thanks for the responses. Like I said in my post I was rooted before but un rooted and went to complete stock 2.2.1. I know uninstalling youtube would resolve this issue but I am trying to find a way to uninstall the app without being rooted.

My cousin bought my old N1 off of me and is running CM7, one of the nightlies prior to RC1. (yes still, he is waiting on CM7 final) He phoned me up to ask about the System update notification. I am not there to verify if it is the OTA or ROM Manager giving the notification. I was thinking OTA did not work, if it does, it would just flash over CM7 and I'm thinking that wouldn't tun out well.
There is an app included within tiny GAPPS called FOTA Kill. Just install this to stop the OTA notifications.
Either use the FOTAKill posted above or flash at least the nightlies build 11.
ok. Thanks
i am on cyanogen 6.1.1, and starting last night i now keep getting the system update notification from google. not sure why this is happening since i'm on cyan. i'll try FOTAkill and see how it works.
side note, google doesnt play around with system updates. if you clear the update, it comes back in about 2 minutes, and keeps happening all day!!
Hello everyone,
Since Enomther's ROM thread is closed I would like to ask you a question about this beautiful ROM.
Since yesterday I'm receiving update system notification ( I own a Nexus One, so I suppose is Gingerbread update via OTA )
Well, this shouldn't happen, isn't it? I noticed that I have FOTA killer, so that should do the job, but still I'm receiving update system notifications...
Has anyone the same problem? Is there a way to disable the system update notifications?
I just flashed again the FOTAKiller-signed.zip in order to disable them, but I'm still receiving notifications...
Help please
You can disable it by updating your build.prop
Hi,
Also getting the OTA 2.3.4 update notification.
I am running Enomther 2.14.4 and have applied a patch to remove the OTA notification of the previous 2.3.3 update.
How to remove the 2.3.4 OTA notification?
please could you download it while running logcat and let the installation fail in recovery before disabling it? people are looking for the link to the OTA
FOTAKill.zip and then attempt to install the update. It'll reboot to custom recovery and stay there. Just don't do anything with it, reboot back, and the update notification should be gone.
Not to hijack. I am running cm6 and upgrade my h-boot. When I restarted the phone it ask me to update to gingerbread 2.3.3. However u still like running cm6. But it keeps asking me to update. I still not clear how to get rid of this message. Any suggeston?

I have downloaded GAPPS and installed the FOTAKill apk, however the update notification still keeps popping up.
Anything I'm missing?

I am having the same issue and have tried the above solution. I have also allowed the installation to fail and restart. The OTA update notification still comes back. Any solutions?
Thanks!
Make sure that fotakill is installed to internal memory. If it is installed on the sdcard, it probably won't work.

Odd, I installed it, removed the update in /cache, rebooted, haven't seen the notification since.
Hi Guys,
I've got a Droid 3 on 2.3.4, rooted and bloat apps froze with Ti backup pro. I'm concerned that a later ota update may auto install and mess up the phone due to the apps being froze. Is there a way to stop automatic ota updates?
Is this something to worry about at all? Can an ota mess up my phone if it installs with apps froze?
Note: nothing has been deleted, just froze.
i dont think having apps frozen would do much, and if you dont want an ota update,i cant really help with that

Thanks for the reply stumpyz9. I was under the impression that an ota with stock apps deleted could brick the phone, but I could find any solid info about ota with frozen apps. I just wanted to be sure before another update comes around. Don't want to kill my phone
Typically to get OTA updates, you have to manually check for updates. Even if an update appears as a notification, you still will have to accept it, it will not auto-update. Final point is that unless you have all stock apps the update will fail and not install. Frozen apps will cause an update to fail, I haven't heard of anyone bricking their phone this way. Either way you should be fine.
