My Focus 1.3 still wont detect the retail updates via zune so I am trying to use the manual update featured here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1306415
However, after it does a bunch of installing and reboots my phone I get an error indicating 'two or more packages contain the same file' and cant figure out why it is doing this.
Any ideas?

i had the same failure to the update 8107, i solved it that way, sending one by one cabs to the device... first one language, the 2ns 3rd 4th an so on... then the last update 8107 arm something... that solved my problem. but it can also be a ROM problem, if it is a custom rom... in the end if nothing works try a phone reset, then try to send this cab files.

So are you saying I should remove all but one of the .cab files and run the utility? I havent done that but I'll give it a shot if that is ok to do.
Hmm, so I did this to the first .cab file and it updated me to 7.0.7403.0. However, so far the next one(s) in line will not go. They say "No applicable packages" and, of course, Zune still doesnt think I need any updates.
Edit: Actually, I think I see why. The first update which is supposed to take me to (7.0.7004.0) actually went all the way to 7403. Trying the 7403+ cab file now.
I started going one at a time and it got me partially updated but then one error out and basically bricked the phone (boot loop). I flashed back to 7004 and this time, for whatever reason, Zune detected the updates all the way up to Mango. The previous time I had flashed to 7004 it did not do that. I am now on 7.10.7720.68. I dont know if that is the 'latest' official release, but it appears to have the mango features at least.

I was flashing my gsmarti's ROM this morning... I follow all the steps and it is successfully go into the "flashing environment"... Unfortunately, the process stuck at the beginning... and suddenly, it turn off itself... then, I cant switch on my phone anymore... and I dont even get the static Gigabyte screen as well...
Is there any solution to this?
Thank you!
Do you know where to find the Rom Upgrade Utility for your phone?
If you go to your carrier's website and log into it, do you by any chance have a downloadable file that will restore your phone to its factory settings?
There's also many different GSmart models .. which one do you have?
I looked up Gsmart phones, and their support site has firmware upgrades listed for some of their phones .... see if you're is listed.

Thank for you reply =)
Actually i am using gsmart i (64)... and i have the latest firmware with me...
Because this device is using POCKET GHOST to restore and backup the system...
as i mentioned earlier... my "flashing" process is stuck at the beginnig... so, in my opinion, i think the pocket ghost has been deleted and i cant do the flashing anymore... is it true?
If it run's Windows Mobile ... you should be able to run the RUU at the bootloader screen....
As far as how do you get into the bootloader on your phone ... I have no idea.... on mine, I soft reset while holding the camera button in and keeping the camera button held in until the bootloader screen comes up which looks something like this (note i just randomly found this pic on google images)

Hi... thank you ya...
but i am still stuck in the black screen...
and i cant find any way to access into the bootloader...
i am searching the other sites... and i came across this:
they said if anything goes wrong during "flashing", the ROM will be locked...
is that true?
and one more thing, the bootloader, is it almost same as the bios (cmos) of
our pc?
and for your information... a lot of people are having the same problem...
thx thx... appreciate!! =)
Is this the bootloader?
Yep, that is our bootloader for the Gsmart series. On the i300 its accessed by pressing the red phone, green phone and power buttons at the same time.
If you want to change your ROM then you need to load the new version to your SD card (and I think it needs to be the only contents on the card).
Hi,
I never saw this problem
My phone is unlocked (since a year more or less) and I can't install TWRP nor CWM. I tried many tutorials such as all the root methods listed on XDA for this smartphone.

There might be a problem with your drivers. You can try uninstalling and reinstalling them. Also, try using fastboot commands manually
Sent from my Mate
unlock again
Thank you. I'd like not to have to relock it as it's already done and rooted. Could you please tell me what drivers to install? I tested many of them (https://i.imgur.com/wBgsezr.png) but it seems I don't have the right ones then.
I'm using Win7 64bits.
Thanks again!
Use adbdriveinstaler and when it's install you can push recovery to add folder and try this command
cd C:/adb
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Change name your twrp or cwm to recovery
Send frome globe
Okay. Here we go
ADB driver installed (https://i.imgur.com/PWrZoHH.png)
Went to flash and... still not allowed.
And in fastboot/rescue mode on my phone it's written PHONE Unlocked.
WTF
BTW, is there any other way to upgrade the phone? Cause every time I go to the software update in the menu i'm told it's up-to-date, but it's not... Android 4.4.2 & EMUI 3.0.
I read about a "local update" but can't find out how to update from the SDcard, I only have OTA.

Hello!
I saw today that my Samsung Galaxy S6 has a new Software Update, when i try to install it, it downloads it, then asks me when i want to install it (like now or overnight)
when i install it now, it restarts the phone like it usually should, but when the Phone is rebooted, my S6 takes me to my TWRP Recovery Menu, so my question is, how do i install
the latest official software update without bricking my rooted S6?
First question. How did you manage to install twrp and still be able to download ota Updates?
Secondly: you only can install ota Updates over stock Recovery.

i dont really know, i just saw that my phone has an update, i clicked on it, it downloaded and then asked me to install it, and my phone is rooted and has TWRP, i dont even know if it would be a good idea to look for the software update and update it with odin or something, im completely new at this so i cant really answer that question. maybe it didnt even download the update. i wonder where it WOULD be saved if i really managed it to download...
I'm still to figure out what you did because technically speaking Samsung would have picked up you rooted and you would receive a message saying your system has been modified.
---------- Post added at 11:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:01 AM ----------
If what you saying is true then when your phone reboots into TWRP to install...look at where the OTA is stored. Copy it to internal storage. Reboot TWRP then flash OTA and reflash root
weirdly this message doesnt pop up at all, and im running rooting, xposed etc. its very weird...

as you can see, it downloaded and after the installation, it asks me when the installation should begin, if i install, the phone reboots and puts me automatically to twrp, i reboot back to system and my phone says that the installation failed and if i want to send a report to samsung...
Hello guys,
I'm new here, I've read a lot about your different topics and I'm admirative for some level god members with their answers :good: :laugh:
Indeed I'm a dev, but for websites so it's a bit different with phones for me, and I will try to explain as detailed as I can.
I have a samsung SM G965F, bought in Poland (I work here for the moment); And indeed tried to root it for private purposes.
I followed a tutorial; I was on Pie 9 (****tiest ever update for me); from there OEM in DEV tools was activated, and the TWRP was installed.
the phone wasn't root, but I had the TWRP options (when push Volume up+bixby+lock) so thought I'm on the good way, but only after, and there is my mistake, I understood by reading something that I should make faster an operation when enabled the OEM (before it start to delete all my infos) that I should switch to recovery mode (or installation) and if not there was a story with 7 days to wait.
So the phone was just reseted with only memory card datas not deleted, and the phone was working, just the OEM always disabled, and when you select to enable it it says "ok we reboot the phone you will loose all your files etcc..." and anyway after many attempts, it says always the same after the reboots, and never is enabled after. So I tried to install a new rom, and then I thought I had a problem, in the installation it was written "Secure Check Fail : PIT".
So I tried to found the right rom, with the number "6" inside as per this screen :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then the Secure Check Fail : PIT dissapeared and now its just Fail in Odin.
Also, I tried to reboot normally but it says that there was an error and I need to reinstall with smart view or smart touch, I don't really remember, so I just reinstalled the first TWRP and now the screen of my phone is looping on Samsung, and rebooting.
I'm lost, I spent from 3pm to 4 am yesterday in the internet to found a solution, so my final option is write to ask your help guys.
Hope you can help me, thank you in advance
PS: Sorry for the big picture, there is no acceptance unfortunately for resizing codes, or maybe I just still don't have access to this option cuz I have less than 10 messages, if need delete it or explain me if you need pictures, I did it 10 min ago, even if there is not a lot to do because i'm limited with my phone now
I have been trying to update my phone for a while now but for some reason I am unable to, when I got the phone I followed this guide to convert it from CN to WW, and it worked well
But right now I am stuck at at version 18.1220.2109.126,
Every time I try to update to android 12 I am greeted with this

if anyone could help me with this I would be really grateful, no matter what version I use I am always getting the same message
Update incrementally up to the version you want to get to.

its not working man, i almost tried every firmware
Flash RAW firmware (use the script / binary WITHOUT a wipe), then update normally.
If all else fails, you can perform the update with fastboot. It won't fix the issue and will have to be done for every future update, though.
Bypass "System update failed" - Update w/ Fastboot
Update notifications appeared, the update was recognized, but it failed instantly. I have since resolved the error by flashing a raw firmware without a wipe. This post is for archival purposes or simply an alternative installation method...

I tried both, but every time I try to run a script, be it flash raw or the flash_all, I keep getting waiting for devices, even though my phone is connected to my pc(through the side port) and is in fastboot/bootloader.
