Got the update through today.
Put the original recovery back in place as CM fails the install.
It's now been sat on a picture of a phone with green arrow circles above it, and a scroll bar stuck on ~30% for about an hour and a half. So I guess nothing is happening- thoughts?
*EDIT - tried turning it off. When I turned it back on, it said "Entering recovery" and is now back at the same point?

Is your phone rooted and were you on a stock rom when you downloaded the update ?

I /was/ rooted, although after it rebooted the first time and tried to update in CWM that seemed to deactivate itself. Stock ROM, yes.
I have since tried wiping cache and re-flashing stock recovery once more, but now the recovery just goes to the warning triangle rather than the green arrows, so I've probably made it worse
I can still get into fastboot ok. Can I get the OTA zip and flash it through fastboot anywhere?

I have the same problem. I tried fixing it trough flashing a firmware.zip but I think it might've been the 4.2.2 firmware zip and now my phone's proper messed up. Still boots and everything works except for camera and sd card.

I would advice trying a factory reset if you have a backup of your data to see if that helps with the issue's.
I know there are some issue's being reported when trying to update to 4.2.2 with root

Hmm okay, did a factory reset through fastboot, will try the 4.2.2 OTA again.
Will report back in 5 mins.

Kewl waiting to hear if all works again
I have the same problem with mine
I may just do a full wipe and start over with a new ROM. Seems as good a time as any seeing as it's buggered! Unless anyone knows where to get the OTA from and how to flash it through fastboot
I found the OTA zip on my phone this place : /data/data/com.android.providers.downloads/cache
Impossible to flash it, it returns errors

Doesn't seem to be working, freezes in the exact same place as before
Took a bit longer cause I had to download it over 3G instead of wifi.

Can anyone provide me with the firmware.zips for 4.1? I've accidentally flashed the 4.2 ones and need to revert to 4.1 for the OTA to work.
I'm stuck too, phone was rooted previously did I didn't reroot after the last upgrade, just flashed CWM. Flashed stock recover from ARHD, accepted OTA update, now stuck on upgrade screen. Pain in the arse, really hoping to avoid starting from scratch.

I gave up. Put Revolution Stock ROM onto a 4Gb memory stick, flashed CWM, mounted external SD and installed the zip.
To be fair, HTC Backup has restored my email accounts already. Apps downloading now.
I hard-cycled and it restarted, completed, and went to black for an extended period of time. Hard-cycled again and it completed. Terrible process feedback.
I had the same problem, it was stuck around ~25% and just didn't move. I turned mine off and held the down volume button down, but that just took it back into recovery but this time it installed. Bar is just at ~90% now.
Do you have S-OFF or S-ON?
I still had root but I recovered my recovery from clockwork to original and also relocked bootloader and remove tampered message and then did S-ON before doing the OTA.
Since writing this, my install has just finished and on the reboot now.

Hi nicelad,
Could you explain how did you get your One relocked and S-on ? Thanks
I used revone to do the relocking and then a fastboot oem writesecurelock 3 via cmd on pc to write the S-ON

Edit : Did what you said, but still can't update. The update stops at almost 20 %
So, to make a long story, short, for the past couple of days my phone has been soft-bricked... It first happened when I attempted to flash dmodv6 in CWM. Everything looked good throughout the installation, however, when I rebooted my device, I got stuck in a boot loop where It would say "Samsung Galaxy S III GT-I8190" for a few seconds, the screen would go black, then say the same thing again... over and over and over...
After a lot of trial and error because of NOT making a nandroid backup via CWM (stupid, I know - I had made one via Titanium Backup and thought that might be good enough), I finally was able to boot. Thanks to xXPR0T0TYPEXx, I was able to flash another rom by puting my external sd card into another phone, loading another rom onto it, and putting it back in my phone. I now had Cyanogenmod10 and was able to boot back up.
I attempted to restore the Titanium Backup I had made with this new rom (stupid again, I know) and it made almost every service on the phone stop working... I desperately wanted just to get back to square one - to install stock firmware and go from there. I followed tys0n's guide on flashing stock recovery then attempted to install stock firmware... All seemingly went well - I booted up, got past the initial "Samsung Galaxy S III GT-I8190" logo and finally got hung up at the "Samsung" logo. I left it one while I went to sleep, just to see if it would eventually work... I woke up and it was still the same. I tried flashing different version of the same stock firmware but it all ended in getting hung up at the "Samsung" logo.
A major problem is that I absolutely CANNOT flash a custom recovery via Odin - it just will NOT work. Everything looks good on Odin's end - I PASS, get the (succeed 1 / failed 0) thing but am sent to stock recovery every time I do the 3 button combination. I've tried many version of CWM and TWRP.... NOTHING. I've even unticked the "Auto-Reboot" button in Odin and pulled the usb cable and battery upon completion but, but nothing ever works. The only way I was ever able to get CWM on my phone in the first place was by an in-phone app... Rom Manager, maybe? I can't remember. But, as it is, that method is out of the question.
I've learned a lot about what I did wrong so that's the only good part of all of this. Now, all that's left is to fix the thing so I can go about it right. I'm completely out of ideas, have spent almost a full 24 hours searching solutions to this problem and I am at wits end...
I just want to get back to stock firmware... Any ideas, guys? Should I go about re-partitioning my device at this time?
I have the PIT file... but I'm not sure as to which firmware to choose. I imagine a firmware that is 4.1.1 like my phone was... but I'm not sure about the region. I live in the US and there is no US or North American region firmware version.Can anyone shed some light on which one I should choose?
My SSN underneath my battery say "GTI8190GSMH".
I'm sorry this is so long, I just wanted to explain what happened as best as I could. So, should I go about re-partitioning my device at this point? If so, what firmware would you recommend for my model? Are different region versions okay for a this method?
Or is there another way?
Thanks, guys. :silly:
Some additional details (if it will help): I can, indeed, boot into both recovery and download mode. I just can't seem to flash a stock rom that will boot past the "Samsung" logo.
I've even attempted to flash the param file after the rom flash but it didn't help.

Do you have the stock recovery now instead CWM? If yes do (if you didn't try it) a factory/data reset and wipe cache but it will delete your pics, music etc on your internal storage too.

Yeah, I have stock recovery now and I have tried that many, many times... Even if I install something like CyanogenMod, it still gets hung up on the CyanogenMod boot screen... And if I boot a stock firmware, it gets hung up at the same place at the "Samsung" logo...
I have an idea that one of the only options left is a PIT re-partitioning... If so, how would I properly go about that? Load the PIT file and the stock firmware in odin? Or only the PIT as PDA? I've heard a couple of different things and am unsure.

I don't know about PIT files but some people got this message : "CUSTOM PIT BINARY" in recovery mode after flashed a PIT file (maybe they used a other PIT file that wasn't compatible). So make sure you use a PIT file that is GT-i8190 compatible.
I tried flashing the PIT file for the hell of it because I am completely out of ideas.... It failed repeatedly in Odin.
I have no clue on how to fix this... I've tried countless roms and they all get stuck on their respective boot screens. The only one that gave me a glimmer of hope was Cyanogenmod10.2.... It went as far as saying "Android is upgrading" and showed "starting apps" but it got hung up there.
I don't know what to do, guys. Someone help!!!

Use a custom ROM to see if it will fix the problem .Try to flash CyanogenMod 10.2 by NovaFusion via odin or if you flash CyanogenMod 11 then you will automatically get the TWRP recovery. NovaFusion Team Homepage : novafusion.pl. I know you want the stock ROM but try other ROMs to get a booting phone again

I have... I've tried numerous stock roms and numerous custom roms... all versions of Cyanogenmod, Chameleon, Carbon, Slim mod, etc... They all get stuck at their respective logos.
I even tried the Cyanogenmod with TWRP but, as I explained earlier, I absolutely CAN NOT flash a custom recovery unless I use what ever app I used.... It doesn't work with Odin or with a rom. I don't know why.
I wish someone had more info on repartitioning my phone and if it would help.

Likely your flash was interrupted. Try flashing again and make sure the progress gets all the way through. My last time took the attempts to get a clean flash. Had to keep it in the foreground and not do anything else on my computer.

Also, make sure you have the lastest mofo (version 0.0.2).
So I tried to flash the hotspot rooted image also the just plain rooted image. Which image do you suggest I use? Yes my first flash got interrupted. So are you saying that since I get to the white android screen that's a good sign?

Shouldn't matter but I'd stick with the original root image. Android logo isn't a good sign you are just stuck in a bootloop. If you can't get the regular rooted image flashed then you can go here for rsd plus stock, but I'd only do that as last resort since good chance of loosing all your data - http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo/development/quark-stock-firmware-moto-maxx-droid-t3063470
If it still won't flash the root image, you might want to hit the Mofo Thread and ask for help since a few others are having similar issues of not being able to get 100% through a flash - http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/paid-software/mofo-root-turbo-t3064404. They seemed to have identified issues if you installed more then one usb driver and/or are using a usb 3.0 port.
All good now - lost data but wiped phone then flashed - it work finally
hi every body, i have the same issue, i decide to udpate my phone to lollipop and everything was working fine except for one error that was doing my phone every time i use settings, and i decide to wipe the cache under recovery, when i tried to do it, the phone get stuck in erasing cache and then after some minutes here i turn off and on again the phone and make the same procedure and this time the wipe was very fast and then i restart my phone and here is the problem now, it get stuck in android screen and is not coming back from here, i tried to make a factory reset and nothing happens it is still on android screen and i dont know what else i can do, my bootloader is locked.
any ideas?

Hey how did you fix it? Im stuck on the moto logo and have no idea how to fix it. I have tried everything! Thanks in advance.
So I decided to flash a rom. I haven't done so on this galaxy s6 edge. I've always done it on my previous galaxy phones. The phone already had all the pre-reqs for EXTREME SYNDICATE. Once the phone rebooted to download, I used odin to push out the new OE2 FLASH ME. After that was done the phone just went into a boot loop. I double checked and made sure all the files were correct.
Now I am at a point where even using odin with stock image just goes to samsung splash screen and song then just gives me a Startup Failed - Please connect verizon repair etc.
Is there anything I can do on my end or am I screwed with this phone now. I can still go to download mode and the recovery mode that lets me wipe, reboot etc. But nothing seems to work. Unless I am missing something here.
All help is appreciated, thanks!
Mods can close this thread. I tried everything. Eventually flashing different OE2 and OF1 finally got it working even though I flashed the stock ....
I was flashing a rom and now the phone will turn on but I only can get it to Download mode and thats it, otherwise it just freezes during the "samsung" boot portion. I did have twrp installed but now I cant even get into recovery mode. Is there anything I can use with Odin to recover my phone? Right now im downloading some stock firmware for my phone model hoping that flashing that via odin will work, tried the same thing last night and it didnt but this is a different .tar so im crossing my fingers.
Any update on this?First thing is to try flashing the same version of TWRP you had before. But it will help to have more info from you, like what ROM did you have and what ROM were you trying to flash? Specifically important is the baseband versions you were going from and to: EPF1, EPD, OJC, etc.? Certain updates prevent downgrading, so if you tried flashing an incompatible version, that could have caused this, and that's my guess as to what happened. Did you make a backup? Obviously not being able to get into recovery makes that irrelevant for now; you're doing volume up+home+power and holding them for at least 5-10 seconds? If you made a backup, and you can successfully re-flash the same version of TWRP, you might be able to restore to your previous setup.
