[Q] pre-rooted GRI40: flash update.zip: verification failed

I dont know if any similar stuffs are around...
so
I went from GRI40 to FRG33 using PASSIMG, rooted with z4, and then I tried to use the original recovery to flash update.zip of a pre-rooted GRI40
it says:
-- Install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
Verifying update package...
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
why does this happen?
I saw some others talking about custom recovery, but how to install/flash them
I don't prefer cmd but pls, post solutions
another thing is, I saw another developer mentioning using su.zip to root stock GRI40
how does that work? how to do that?
hope some of you can help me

Same here, I think it's because we rooted our Xoom's

Yup, flash the stock recovery.img & boot.img and bootup android again, download de software update again and let it update. This seems to fix your & my problem

if it's an official update and you're running stock, you must run a stock recovery to update

Hi Here I have a BIG problem with understanding whats going on. This is forth week how i'm trying to push update for GB 2.3.1.
a little story:
I had ICS based MIUI rom installed for around 1.5 year and was extremely happy with its UI and performance and regular weekly updates - since it become more and more lagy after every update. my phone was to week for its software and I decided go back stock.
My phones current details

It's normal you can't flash OTA because you have a custom recovery. You need stock recovery for that. You can download a factory image from Google, extract it and flash the recovery inside using fastboot.
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#soju
ALSO, stop using Odin. There's no need to use Odin or nearly on Nexus S. This thing is nearly unbreakable and you have more chances of breaking stuff with Odin than anything else.

thanx for quick replay
flashed factory GB 2.3.6 straight away using sdk tools
now will root it and install custom clockwork recovery to prevent from automatic OTA updating to lagy ICS

Use FOTAKill instead,

Thanx for good advice. Installed it allready.

Verizon XT926 JB upgrade help

Hi all,
Hopefully someone can help me out.
I have used the droid Razr Hd utility to downgrade to ics so that i can obtain root and then upgrade back to JB. FAIL
Managed to get onto ICS and root and do the minor upgrade, but getting to JB seem to be an issue.
First the 926 tried to update via OTA and this failed on installation, I then tried the unofficial method and also get failed message on install, process starts but fails!
Any help please
Cheers TG
