Can't Update OTA ? - G Tablet General

I upgraded my GTablet with a "leaked" version of the new software upgrade but now I want to update to the "official" version. Unfortunately my device won't recognize that there is an update available even when I run the updates app to look for one.
Is anyone else having this problem? Any solutions?
I hear VS may be making a recovery image available for those who have modded their GTab's beyond repair...but in the meantime, I'm curious how others are addressing this issue.

If the leaked version was the 3389 update then that is the official version. Otherwise I believe their official website has the 3389 update.
This is a link to the 3389 update that Roebeet posted

I had been unable to get OTA updates since Nov 19. I read on another thread how a user downloaded the 3053 update manually and then his OTA started working again. So I gave it a try and sure enough it fixed my problem. In fact I have gone back to this version twice just to reset my G-Tab to stock. I have not mod'd my unit. I have flash, market and Rothnic enhancement pack.
Hope this helps
Roebeet listed all of the official TNT downloads here.

*rothnic has a new enhancement pack v2 that will not erase your stock files. It will increase the speed a little bit..

rooted, clockwork install - can i still get stock updates?

Forgive if already answered (couldn't find anything) i have installed clockworkmod and have rooted my tab is there a way i can still install any new stock updates that might come from Viewsonic
thanks
At this rate the updates to vegan etc are coming out way faster than viewsonic updates and are including performance enhancements along with the bug fixes so i am not sure the loss of the ota are of major concern currently.

[Q] HC3.2 OTA pulled?

I just recently managed to wipe my TF when I was rooting it, and had to go back to the stock firmware from the ASUS site.
The ASUS site only has the HC3.1 firmware on there and it's dated 7/25/2011. However, I know that when I got my Transformer 2 days ago, that it updated by it's self to HC3.2 the second it got an internet connection.
Now, when I got to look for an update in the "About Tablet" tab in settings, it says there are no updates available, even though my tablet is only on 3.1.
Did they pull the latest update?
3.2 has not been posted on Asus's site yet. It is only available via Over The Air...
And, after rooting mine (3.1) and restoring to stock I also do not get the 3.2 availability message.
I think that I will have to wait for Asus to post it.
Ah okay, that explains the website.
However, is there a reason my Transformer wouldn't be picking up on the update even though I'm on the official stock ROM?
from what i have observed, once you update, you will no longer get the update back by ota.
it must be a type of monitoring they have with the serial; number maybe.
when i received my tab(2 weeks back), i updated to .11 too and rooted. however upon unrooting and going back to the 8.4.4.5 version, i never got back the .11 ota. Yesterday i got the 3.2 ota directly. this what made me to come to the conclusion stated above.
That makes perfect sense, thanks.
I suppose I was going to root for Netflix anyway!

I noticed the same thing on mine. I updated, tried to root, bricked it, nvflashed back, and I haven't gotten the OTA again since. Thankfully there are other ways to upgrade.

Checking for Update and ROM version

Hello all,
I've read that there is a 2.3.6 update for the AT&T Skyrocket. I don't have this latest update and still have Android version 2.3.5. I also hate the check for update on this phone. Unlike other phones I've had like HTC and on other carriers, I can check for updates anytime I want. Here, I can only check once and it will tell me to check again in 24hrs. WTF???
I keep running it every day but it does not find the OTA update.
My phone is rooted...
Thanks,
--mike
have you read around on the forums? the update was pulled and/or only available to select IMEIs...
there is no OTA update as of this moment. if you want to move to 2.3.6, flash a rom. otherwise, sit tight

Firmware update on P6210?

I just today checked via software update and my P6210 model had a firmware update so I installed it. I have yet to see any changes though.
I unrealisticly was hoping it was ICS, but hopefully it is at least a peroration for ICS.
yes, there is an update, something around 19 mb, device failed to update (tried twice)
any possible reason (may be root)?
it also failed when I tried it at first. Then I followed the instructions and connected it to my computer to have Kies manage the firmware update. Its currently updating and seems to be going fine. I'll report back if it fails.
EDIT: worked like a charm. wonder why it can't do it without kies.
Firmware update took away root, replaced my kernel. garys root still works though, so whatevs.
Ics should be coming soon this year.

Update 51.1.A.2.1

Just got the Update from 0.672 to 2.1
It increased quite a bit... will update with screenshot when it's done.
But the patch was only around 76mb in size. So i don't expect more than security update.
Edit:
Maybe only may patch. Got it too.
Isn`t it buil-number 52.1.A.2.1 instead of 51?
anything new and improved in this build?Like is the lag and touch screen issues fixed?
Does Sony ever release any changelogs? This is bizarre, not knowing what's going on.
Fingerprint Reader improved a Lot with this Update - for me at least
I am looking to download this firmware version 52.1.A.2.1 so I could flash it with flashtool (I'm on 0. 672) I'm using a customized US firmware, I have been checking for OTA updates but I've got nothing.
Edit 1: I got the firmware in Xperifirm and installed it but the bugs I was experiencing didnt get fixed.
edit 2: I came back to Android 9
And as usual,Singtel SG always late update,should be the last..oh my God
