I've tried on the stock rooted GB OTA and on Xboarders tweaked GB and each time I attempt to Update, I get an Installation error: Package file was not signed correctly. This is occurring after factory resets as well.
Am I the only person encountering this, as I've not seen any mention of it in the forums?
Did you try removing the previous version first?

Not yet... I have tried freezing it with no effect on the outcome. Will give that a shot, but I'm curious if anyone else is seeing this issue or if my phone has been hitting the bong when I'm not looking.
Update: Removing the system version (2.1.3) allowed me to download and install the latest (2.1.4). But it just seems like a weird issue. I wonder if LG had done something to the 2.1.3 version that made it incompatible with updating.
Same issue here im gonna root then reinstall the app.
I've done just as mentioned in removing and installing however
The message of voice search being an "incompatible update" appears. Would either of you have the old apk or help with installation of the new one? Unfortunately I thought I backed up the old .apk but it never fully downloaded to my dropbox server ...Thank you in advance!
try rebooting phone first then go to market and try to install i had that error earlier today and a reboot fixed the issue if not try rooting first
Thank you
It is rooted, and it worked after rebooting twice. The first reboot didn't do anything after deleting the ap. Then after looking around I found the lib folder and deleted that too. Afterwards rebooted again and it installed, Thank you though!
no prob glad i could kinda help
Where is the lib folder?

After getting .30 update installed a few days ago, I tried to open Androsensor and kept getting 'Unfortunally Androsensor has stopped." Tried clearing cache and dalvik but it still crashed. So, I uninstalled and tried to reinstall, but after it downloads and begins to install it gives me:
Error

It's only this app that's giving me grief. Tried installing 10 or so random apps and they all installed fine. Everything else I've got installed works as well. Was just curious if anyone else has seen this type of issue either before OR after the .30 update with this or any other apps.
If not, would someone else on .30 try installing this? I'm trying to cover all of my bases before wiping and trying a fresh install. I use this app quite frequently and really want to get it working again
Sounds like it has left the .odex file in the system/apps folder. Are you rooted?

Yes. Rooted. No .odex left behind. I've destroyed every shred of this app and it just won't work anymore. That's why I was curious if anyone else was/could run it after .30 update.

I got the gingerbreak apk from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1044765 for my lg optimus v 2.2.2 downloaded it, turned on usb debugging and install non market apps, I ran the downloaded file and it started to install but was taking forever, so I exited out of it. everything has been screwed up since then... i uninstalled it and tried to re-download it from the same place and I cant do it. just keeps saying download unsuccessful, but i can download anything else... I dont have any network problems has installing it halfway ****ed everything up? what can i do?
Thanks in advance for any help
Try resetting factory settings before rooting.use adownloader or dolphin browser. The thing is that you are trying to download the same file again at same location, which is not possible. Try renaming the file, if you are using dolphin browser then it automatically renames the new file. Hope this helps!

Thanks! Oddly enough when the phone was rebooted I was able to download it again just fine using the stock browser. I just had a brief freakout... Root successful, custom ROM next? thanks again for the advice

Please edit the thread title and add [SOLVED] to the beginning of it. Glad your issue was resolved.
My phone dosent want to update because at one point I was using TB and removed chrome from my phone and installed the app version from play store. Now when I go to update, it reboots into recovery, begins installing, then fails. When I check to see wy its not updating, it gives me a long string of numbers and letters and says .. chrome.apk .. and then it says update aborted.... so I was wondering if anyone knew a way I can fix this because I have a backup of chrome when it was a system app but when I install it, it still does the same thing.

Try rebooting after you're done and see if it did update. A few people have reported that the update said it failed, but when they rebooted the update actually did work. If that fails, then you can just update through RSD.

Yea, I've tried to update it tons of times and it keeps failing because of chrome not being a system apk. I did try the option on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33028928 but, realizing I was on 4.1.2, it failed again and since not using a nexus 7, I'm not sure it will work anyway. I could go with RSD but I was hoping there might be another way to fix it without wiping all the data.
Moto G 16GB, bought off Amazon.co.uk. Rooted and flashed 4.4.2 before it was pushed to the device (I think it was an image off US version, found it in these forums back when I got the phone). I've been getting a prompt to install some Motorola US update for a few weeks, it pops up every now and then, has gone away when I tapped "No, thanks" option. All was fine until this morning...this is a really weird problem.
I don't know if the phone updated itself overnight, but when I dismissed the alarm this morning I couldn't get past the lockscreen. I put in my lock code and the phone had the stock wallpaper, then cycled to black background, then back to stock wallpaper and then I got a pop up saying "Unfortunately, the process com.android.systemui has stopped." and I was bumped back to the PIN lockscreen. Tried again, same thing. Now it doesn't even say anything about androidui, just cycles between black background and stock wallpaper and kicks me out.
Tried hooking it up to a PC and Mac, but neither recognized it and the phone appeared to be just charging. Power cycled it a dozen times by holding down the power button for about 6 seconds and I always end up with the same problem of not getting past the lockscreen. Every time I boot the phone now it says "Android is upgrading... Optimizing app 1 of 1". This is why I thought maybe I was pushed some incompatible US update?
Underneath it all the phone works fine, got the alarm this morning, received an SMS, answered a phone call. I can even get to the camera from the lockscreen. Is there any other options besides complete wipe and starting from the beginning again?
Probably OT, but I've always had trouble with the launcher quitting, no matter what launcher I'm using, on Moto G and the previous GNex.
Any help is appreciated, I'm bummed.
Hi,
i've today the same, exactly the same problem. It's strange, because i can't reset my phone to factory default, i went to the recovery menu, then "factory", but it only rebooted...
My "solution":
I reinstalled the original firmware:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219
Then all works fine.. No matter why this error occurs.. an automatic firmware update? ..i don't know...
the exact same thing happened to me today out of nowhere and i'm about to leave on a trip, i'm so angry!
Jeez...well, looks like I'm not the only one. WTF happened? I left on a weekend trip too and I'm P.O.'d. I haven't been too religious with my backups either, that's why I was trying to find a way to back things up before wiping it all, but it looks like I'm out of luck. Guess a full wipe is in order.
hmmm i'm a complete dufus when it requires ADB, i've followed the procedures at the link but everytime i try to enter an input cmd says "mfastboot is not a recognized command"

Take a look:
c) If the firmware file you downloaded is a .xml.zip file then download Motorola Fastboot mfastboot-v2.zip (attached to this post) and extract the .exe into the same folder as the stock firmware files (the same folder as the .bin and .img files). If your firmware is a .tar.gz file then skip this step.
I'm debating if I should go ahead and restore the firmware OR wait for Motorola to right their wrongs!

I... did that, but obviously not the correct way, i'm downloading the files on my note and will try again. Maybe I should unpack the firmware files at some specific place? The instructions said nothing about this so I did nothing.

Just reminded me that my phone is still within warranty, doing this restore may void it?

Guess this is the only way out of this, then. What a mystery... I wonder if this is the "Welcome to Lenovo" update 1.0 lol.
i'm getting a "missing AdbWinApi.dll" although i've installed all the applications required, any help?
edit: guess i also need the android sdk, right?
edit2: got it, just copy the dlls from the minimal adb directory into the firmware directory and it's good to go, just configuring my newly restored device, thanks all

I guess It's the problem of flipboard app!
My father's phone is also experiencing this issue, I can't even reset the phone to factory settings.
This occurred when I was also updating the flipboard app... seriously I'll have to RMA this...
----------------------
So I also have an issue where when you unlock the screen, it just locks back up (no android dialogue saying that com.android.systemui has crashed, but the same result).
I'm also unable to go into bootloader -> Recovery to factory reset the phone.
I stupidly tried to uninstall the flipboard app and reinstall it and it killed the phone... it's now stuck and quite annoying.
I'm 99% sure it's Flipboard.
Looks like others are having issues with Flipboard too

I solved the issue by following the instructions here:

how could a flipboard update screw android so badly? what a strange day
edit: they seemed to have pulled the update back or fixed it though, during my restore flipboard installed without issues
Holy S*** I'm in the same situation. It's definitely the Flipboard update that caused everything. Support just acknowledged me but never gave me any solution. I'm running ART and I think that was contributing the problem. It's terrifying knowing how a single app can completely ruin your phone!!
Anyway guys, is there anyway I can save my pics and stuff before I wipe my data?
Good detective work, I now remember updating the Flipboard app w/ bunch of others as well when things were still all good. Could this be remedied if Flipboard would manage to push a working update? I really don't wanna wipe everything, and I'm not sure I can.
Word from Flipboard (via Twitter):
"Flipboard does not support the experimental OS ART at this time."
I got a Nexus 5 been using CM on it for a while now. Currently i have 11-20140708-SNAPSHOT-M8
the build date is july 8. I've been getting CM update for a new version for like a month now, tried installing it a couple of times, when i press to reboot and install it says it installed it, and after the phone reboots, it's still the same old version, and i keep getting the notification to upgrade, but i can't.
So I waited for another new build, thinking this is just some bug in the update. Yesterday a new version prompted for a update, but the same happened. So i tried to download the zip from CM website and flash it on recovery manually. And i got an error:
Can't install this package on top of incompatible data. (Status 7) installation aborted.
I used to update with no problems, but I seem to be stuck on the july 8 build.
Anyone else dealing with this, or know how to fix this?
Is your bootoader up-to-date? CM often require you to have latest bootloader
No. I haven't upgraded it. I've found multiple threats about it, I'm not sure which one is the right to do so. As i'm not really familiar with this kind of stuff.
EDIT: My BL version is HHZ11K. From what i gathered it's the most recent one.

Sounds like you're dirty flashing but something in your current set up has been corrupted. You may need to factory reset or do a clean install.

problems updating monthly snapshots of CM
Hi, I have been looking everywhere to see why I am having difficulties updating Cyanogen snapshots every month. I found this post but I don't really know if it pertains to my problem. I have a google rooted nexus 5 and every month when I try to update my phone begins acting up. It starts saying unfortunately google play services has stopped working. I see my apps trying to install but all I get are error notification icons at the top and they won't download. I posted on g+ and someone says it has to do with titanium. Im at a loss. Its very frustrating as I've tried almost everything I can think of to no avail. I try to go to the playstore and it's like I have no connection. I do have and use titanium backup for the apps I want to restore. I spoke to someone that has the same phone and he tells me to just flash the update without wiping but it doesn't work for me. I don't know if its a setting I'm missing on titanium or what it is but it sucks. With the 2 last updates this has happened. Leaving me with no option but to download the CM snapshot along with gapps. Wipe my phone and flash both the snapshot and gapps and start from scratch. I hope you can help me. Hopefully I'm in the right place. Tx you

So here is what i would try to do. reboot into recovery. do a factory reset, make sure you backup your files as this cleans them. And then make the update from the updater or download it manually from cm website.

Almost what I did, i l always do a nandroid backup before flashing anything in recovery, I downloaded the snapshot and the gapps, wiped, and installed snapshots along with gapps. So your telling me to just do a backup in recovery before updating that it cleans my files, then without wiping to try to update just the CM update from either my phone or their website? No gapps? Will try next time thanks.
