[Q] Missed my chance at the OTA update... - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I got up this morning the option to update was available so I went for it. Immediately I realized my mistake because I had rerooted the Xoom last night and of course the update failed. Now I have returned completely bak to stock expecting to be able to update. No dice.
I have tried changing the date to pull the option to update again still no dice. Just wondering if there are any other options to pull this update again or do I just have to wait?
Will it show back up?

I went back to stock and no sign of the update either. guess we will just have to wait.
Lordao

I spoke with a VZW Tech support Rep tonight and was told that the devices are updated by device ID #'s. I was told that since I missed the update that if I did not receive the update by midnight tonight then it probably wasn't gonna happen.
I hope like hell he is wrong and I feel like chances are he is. But he got me just that much more nervous about loosing the chance to get the update yesterday morning

If you plan on rooting, then don't bother with the OTA. You'll have to wipe the phone while rooting, then update to the latest. If you don't plan on rooting, then the OTA should show up when tell it to check. What version does it currently say you are running?
Even if you don't plan on rooting, I still wouldn't update. Otherwise you may end up frustrated with reboots.
I got my TB back in May. Didn't have one issue until I did the update. Since I only had the phone for 11 days VZW told me to walk into a store and exchange for a new one. I have had no issues with the new phone and will stay clear of that update. Wait until GB comes out and hopefully that will fix what ever is wrong.

Trying to update from Froyo Stuck at 4% don't know how to stop

Title says it all. I am trying to update (from Froyo) with LG update tool. Everything seemed to go well but now its stuck at 4%. How do I go about disconnecting and trying again? We're talking right now....been stuck there according to elapsed time 1 hr 27 minutes. If I just disconnect the phone will I brick it?

Go to that post. It has what to do. I was stuck on it also. I did that.
Thanks for the reply. I ended up disconnecting it and removing the battery. When I turned it back on, it was still on the upgrade screen. Plugged it back in and it restatrted the download and completed it. I guess I'm on the new firmware now.
V21e?
Thats old. New baseband is v21y.
P.S: Sorry, didn't see you were on froyo before. Yeah then it did update it for you. Its just that a new firmware was made available from LG a while back.
So I should do it again?
No. You won't be able to. Its been pulled. Wait for a few weeks. If you are on stock rom, You will get OTA update to v21y from tmobile or LG.
I thought they reposted it yesterday, available for manual download? That's why I tried it today.....
Edit....OK I reread it on Tmobiles site.

OTA Update
The G2x will receive a notification that the update is available.
Select Update.
The update will install.
Once complete the phone will restart.
It says it will come to you. Go to your software update and see if it lets you update. I think its on their timing. Not yours. Then again, I am not with any US Carrier so i don't know how the update might work. Sorry.

[Q] Anyone know what the new AT&T LG G2 update is?

Got a notification this morning that there was a new update available for KitKat. I do not know what the update is as I postponed it. I am currently running KitKat 4.4.2 Kernel version 3.4.0. The build is D80020c. I am rooted. I have no other information except that it shows that an update is pending but it will not tell me what the update is and I do not know where to find out what it is.
Anyone have any ideas as to what this is? I am concerned because the last time an update rolled out, it soft bricked my rooted phone.
I spoke with tech support at AT&T and they claim that they do not know what it is and suggested that I call LG for an answer.....

Don't install it, it jacked up my phone. I was running the rooted mixed partition D80020c and I can't boot or get into download mode now. All I get it a constant reboot back to recovery. Cannot install another ROM, cannot restore a backup. My daughter was playing with my phone and pushed to continue with the install and now I'm trying to unscrew it.

Is there any way to force a not install or deny it? The only option I have is to postpone the install and after 4 hours, it will run again and continue to run every 4 hours unless I find a way to break the cycle. How do I force a no install option?
That is what happened to me last time with the "q" update. I postponed the install (no option to not take it) and it installed itself after 4 hours when I left my phone on one night. I woke up to a bricked phone.....

I don't know how to permanently disable the update, but I'm sure there's a way. As info, I was able to easily fix my phone with the help of this thread posted by @thecubed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451696. I didn't read it all, but this might be what disables the update.
I'm not rooted. I took the latest update and all is fine. It's google+ fixes and Google wallet support. It actually let me set up tap & pay! I'll have to go somewhere to try it out.

I got the notification too but figured that it would probably screw things up since I'm rooted and running TWRP so I did a little searching and came across this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50454408&postcount=3 . It's been a few hours since I changed the setting and haven't seen the update notification again although AT&T pushed the update into CACHE/FOTA sometime this morning.
Well scratch that, the notification just came back. I'll try freezing it now.
Well if rooted just use TB to freeze software update. I am also running a mixed partition D80020c. I am on Straight Talk AT&T. Before rooting I tried taking the official OTA of KitKat but for some reason you can't enter an APN type so I couldn't get or send MMS. So I flashed back to the D firmware,rooted,added custom recovery,entered the APN type and then flashed the modified C firmware. You could also use Root Freezer instead of Titanium Backup to freeze

[q] not receiving ota updates

So I flashed CM12 to my G3 and decided to restore to my stock ROM. The "system" part of the restore got stuck so I took the battery out and went to download mode (my phone is messed up at this point so i have to flash a fresh copy of stock) and flashed 10d to my phone coming from 10f. Everything has been working as it should except it is not receiving over-the-air updates. Keep in mind that my phone is working perfect as it did out of the box except i am not getting the 10f over-the-air update. I was "locked out" of checking for updates and I have to wait 24 hours to check again. The phone is un-rooted by the way. Thanks ahead of time for the answers!!!!!!!
Turn off Auto date and time and move the date up a day and check for updates again...

Update Issue?

Just wondering if anyone had a fix or explanation for my situation. I Received an update on the Blu Vivo 5R this Friday, Android 7.0. Then in the process today of unlocking the bootloader and flashing twrp, it got screwed up. so I downloaded the stock rom and flashed it, no biggie. fixed the boot freeze issue. but now I'm back to 6.0 because that was the most up-to-date stock rom. I tried checking for updates, supposedly I'm up to date. I even called Blu support to see if they could push it to my IMEI or something with no luck. they said they release it in batches and the software team deals with that, anyone know a way I could resolve this
You can try manually setting the date ahead a few days and reboot, sometimes that will bring an update.
