Can't update to WW1908 from WW1907

On PKQ1.19041.001.WW_Phone-16.0622.1907.33-0
Copied this file ( UL-ASUS_I001_1-ASUS-16.0631.1908.12-1.1.3-user.zip ) from ASUS update server to my ASUS phone to the root folder (internal storage) it sees the file and I get a message saying that my phone can be updated. But when I click ok to upgrade, it fails.
Anyone try this and successful? Any ideas what the heck I am missing here?!
TY

Maybe corrupted download? Try downloading again.
I had a corrupted download and ended up bricking my phone. Had to flash the Raw 1906 then incrementally update to 1908

Let me download it again. Hope it works. If this does work, I will feel a lot better about updating my awesome phone in the future. Coming from Samsung on AT&T hopefully ASUS keeps the updates fairly regular.

Nope, still not working. Oh well, guess I can wait for the raw version.
But if anyone has any ideas on what I am missing, please chime in.

If you haven't changed the fingerprint to WW yet, the OTA file will be recognized and fail. Change fingerprint and you should be good

I never set a fingerprint. so if I set one now, and then try the update it might work? I guess I will try that and see what happens.

It's not a physical fingerprint, it's how the phone identifies itself. Follow this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ro...w-rom-changing-cn-fingerprint-t3969765/page12

you probably got a Chinese 8gb version with flashed WW firmware, which means no OTA anymore. You gotta flash manually after unlocking the bootloader, rooting and so on.

Thank you so much for pointing me in the right decision, and also although I don't see that many Subaru vehicles in Houston, I plan on getting one this year or maybe next year. Thanks again, up to 1908 now. :good:

Chinese 8gb Tencent q
I'm on 1906 ww. I understand this phone needs a manual flash each time, do I need to flash with every update using raw files and will this also wipe the phone so every update means a wipe?
Can I root, install twrp and simply update the firmware no issue or is it bs?

How do I actually manually update to this? When I hold down on the options button and choose "more options", it still only says Auto-Download System Update
Do I need to flash through fastboot?
Edit: Nevermind, I restarted my phone and it gave me a pop up saying it sees the update

ColorOS 6.1 RMX1991_11_A.14 update

If your phone has locked bootloader, you can get OTA update of ColorOS with December security patch.
Download size is 146MB.
For non-mainland China residents VPN service is needed for initial update detection. When the update is detected, no VPN needed for downloading.
As VPN service you can use Android app Panda VPN free, in which after installation select any Mainland China VPN server and choose free option (you will have to watch one video Ad and then you have 1 hour time usage).
Edit: Link to the full package in ozip file (2.33 gb)
https://download.c.realme.com/osupdate/RMX1991_11_OTA_0140_all_RfH5a5t2Kegi.ozip

well im using panda vpn and its connected but the phone do not detect any updates!!!

JUst downloading A 14 after using VPN by Panda.
Hope it works without any issue.
P.D. downloading 252 -Mb, not 146 Mb (maybe cause jumping from 12 to 14 instead 0f 13 to 14)

Despite using panda vpn...due to high ping the phone cannot detect the new software update... could you kindly provide us with the A14 update firmware link

Working

Try using "China-Shenzhen-1"

How did you get your fp to work? I flashed the a14 and reflashed magisk but still not working. I was on A12 rooted.

Wow, sounds like the conspiracy theory was right after all...

The thing is not in the system/boot or other partitions that are updated, but in the change that happens during unlocking bootloader. So you need to lock and then unlock bootloader when your system is A.13 or newer.
Please be extremely accurate and cautious preparing the phone for the locking process: you have to have 100% stock contents of all partitions. Otherwise you will get a brick. See *Back to Stock howto*

Manual update failed. WW firmware and Fingerprint

Hi all,
I have downloaded UL-ASUS_I001_1-ASUS-17.0210.2001.60-1.1.97-user.zip from the Asus website and placed the file at the root of the disk. Reboot and I'm getting notified there is an update, click update and it informs me the update failed straight away. Both the firmware and fingerprint have been flashed to WW. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Do it manually with the RAW version...
I'm in A10 stable but with high consumption of Google Services. I will reflash for clean install...
Edit: did it and it was more or less the same. But it seemed to be something related to MagiskHide. I hided in Magiskhide com.android.blablablablalbal.unstable (just that) and it was fine

1. I did a factory reset. From TWRP in my case, but in original recovery you can do it too.
2. Download the RAW file in the PC
3. Enter in Fastboot mode, conect the cable to the pc and launch the command 'xxxxx_AFT' or something like that (I don't remember the name)
4. Just wait and wait and wait. Some minutes later you will have everything ready.

Question Update Failling

Heya,
I magisked my S21 ultra and when i want to check for updates it says registration failed?
It did not do that before I magisked it.
So I need to restore everything to fix it or ?

you need to be specific on your concern what apps says registration failed? it's better to provided screenshot of your issue

Here is the screenshot
Sorry it took so long

it is not recommend to update your OS directly from Setting while Magisk is installed ...your phone would go into bootloop(unusable state) there are also stories of people that are force to buy new device because of this silly mistake also installing OS update from Setting would uninstall Magisk also worse case scenario would lock your bootloader too which as your provably know it's nightmare

Question Device does not update (SOLVED!!!)

Edit:
SOLVED!!!!
finally figured out the issue, will share just for information as unlikely to happen with anyone else.
When i installed xiaomi.eu, i cannot remember which partition it was installed at, was it slot A or B. and when i flashed back to official rom, i left it by default.
This has messed up my partitions when i was back to official rom. so whenever i update my system, it would just fail all the time because it is over writing the booted partition.
dont know how, and dont ask me how i fixed it, all i can explain is the following:
checked on fastboot the slot and it was A. so i tried to change it to B and it didnt work with all available commands. So, i used TWRP to boot into fastboot slot B and installed fresh ROM 12.5.4. bootloader unlocked just to be safe. then updated and it went through without any issues.
i cannot explain what exactly happened and if what i did was correct and if my theory is correct, but it worked!!!!.
Thanks to everyone contact me and gave me any idea.
Hi All,
"Couldn't update Miui"
"download rom and try updating again"
i have an issue with my device, it all started after i install eu rom and then flashed back original rom and locked bootloader.
i was on 12.5.2 when i unlocked bootloader the first time, and install eu. version. tried it for a week, and it was really bad. so i switched back to original rom 12.5.4 when it was released and locked bootloader, after that, since then, i was not able to update my device to the following roms. i tried the first time 12.5.6 and it didnt go through when device rebooted. as deviced auto restarted for a few times, (it boot to miui logo for 3 sec's then blink green then restart, happens for a few times like 6-10 times) then device reboots back to version before update but really really really slow.
in the begining, i thought it was faulty update, but i found that several people did it successfully,
Then i thought they have their bootloader unlock and 12.5.6 was a beta version, so that was the reason, until stable 12.5.7 showed up. so i've unlocked bootloader and updated, same issue.
Then i thought, maybe 12.5.4 version downloaded is corrupt somehow, so i've installed 12.5.2 and updated, failed again. same result.
all all cases above, i tried locked and unlocked bootloader and i still get green blinking a few times then a very slow version before update.
Anyone familiar with this case? i really need your help.

the problem is, i did that a few times now. doesnt work.
seems like there is something blocking in the update after reboot.

the error i am getting after every failure is the following:
"Couldn't update Miui"
"download rom and try updating again"

could it be a reason of installing xiaomi.eu using twrp that the partition has changed and caused this problem? just a thought.

Are you trying to install it via the OTA? Because the problem can be the unlocked bootloader
