I just received my OTA update this morning as a download.
Problem is, my G2x is rooted and in superuser mode with busybox installed.
I did not run NVFlasher or install a custom ROM.
If I allow this update (was able to delay for 4hrs) to run do I need to unroot or will the update just break root and everything will be ok?
I updated my phone with the kdz flasher while rooted, I doubt it would matter for you either. After the update you will be unrooted, of course.
I unrooted, went back to stock recovery and everything, got an OTA update this morning and did it, but it was validating software package and somehow I had gotten bad service and it said invalid software package, and now it keeps telling me "connection failed" or "current version is the latest" WTF?

To make a really long story short, after Sprint's recent ota 5.07.651.1 (the update that came with the Sprint connections optimizer) was installed on my phone, I could no longer download or update ANY apps on the android/google play market while connected to 4G. Went to the Sprint store to get it fixed, they tried and failed, got a new replacement handset with ota 5.07.651.1 already installed, same exact issue. Reached the conclusion that the update screwed things up. Downloaded and tried to use this RUU file to revert back to the old build right before this one (4.67.651.1):

This was unsuccesful as the error message it gave me said:
ERROR [140]: BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR
The ROM Update Utility cannot update your Android phone.
Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again.
My hboot is 2.18.0001, is there a version of the above RUU file that is compatible with my bootloader version?

Hi, I want to update from ICS to JB with the recently released OTA, but if I use the Update checker from "Configuration" menu the only message I get is "Your phone is up to date...". I've downloaded and tried to apply the update from the zip uploaded by an user in another thread but it fails while checking the value of ro.build.fingerprint in build.prop expecting to find the version 7.7.1Q-144-VQL_S3-58 (and the phone is 7.7.1Q-144-VQL_S3-56)
The thing is: If I flash that version from my carrier (found in the Firmware superthread) would I incur in some troubles with the ota and/or the configuration itself?
So as you know 3 days ago a small OTA update came out for Verizon which is pretty much the same one AT&T received last month. On wifi I tried to download the update via OTA on the phone, my phone is not rooted and when I tried to download it it just failed in the middle of downloading and I got the error code 503. The wifi I'm using is very fast and steady and nothing else on the phone is having an issue at the moment. So I tried to download it again and it told me that the software currently installed on the phone(original phone release date software) is the newest up to date software. So I called Samsung and told them the situation along with the new build number "VRU1AOD5"(from the new OTA not installed on my phone yet) and software version number currently installed on the phone(5.0.2) and they told me that I'm up to date 5.0.2 and that to their knowledge they never heard of the update or build number I gave them and there was no update for Verizon. So how I can redownload the OTA? because for 3 days now I'm unable to download the OTA due to the 503 error from the very first time I tried to download the update.
What is mind boggling to me is how Samsung the creator of the device has no idea of this update so they can't even help me out. Then they're basically telling me how the hell am I getting the 503 error when I have the latest build(according to them) and software update which is not the case here and I told them that.
Use the Odin file in the return to stock thread
I am using XT1033 model (INDIA), I got the Update notification today so before downloading it i made sure that i unroot my device (MY PHONE IS ROOTED AND BOOTLOADER's UNLOCKED), I did the unrooting process using the inbuilt function of SuperSU app. After that i rebooted the device the superSu was gone i checked the root status with root checker which confirmed my device was NOT ROOTED ,. After that i started the OS update it downloaded the 208 MB file then as usual started the installation and in the middle of this process the boot animation popped up and my phone rebooted and flashed the message "THE UPDATE INSTALLATION WAS UNSUCCESSFUL". PLEASE GUIDE ME THROUGH THE PROCEDURE OF INSTALLING THE OFFICIAL OTA UPDATE 5.1.1.
It happened to me yesterday, and i installed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/gpe-lollipop-5-1-1click-installer-t3075522, now again works ok, (well i lost everything but there isn't full happiness).
I am getting the same problem. I first got the update around 15 days back. And I got it again today. On both the occasion, I could download the update. But it didn't get installed. My bootloader is unlocked and my phone is rooted. Is there anyway I can get the 5.1.1 update without relocking the bootloader as I do not want to loose all my data.
Thanks

My phone was rooted but recently apps randonly started crashing so I decided to return to stock.
I used the following to try to return to stock.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...-to-notes-root-install-xposed-unroot-t3411039
When it started downloading it threw an error:
fused 3 > binary 1
Odin threw a:
<Auth Failed>
I am unable to boot it up after "Update Failed Connect To Verizon Software Update to Fix". I don't believe it can even charge at this point.
I am still able to reach the area that is used to flash.
How do I fix?
Update: Fixed it by downloading the latest firmware and sending it over
