Can't install latest update

Hi all i have been trying to update my tab to 4.0.4. Everytime i try to update it stops in the middle and goes into Clockwork Recovery. Anyone have any ideas on how i can resolve this? I have looked all over the web with no answers. Thanks in advance.

You must have original stock ROM for the update. Without CWM and root.

I am running into the same but different problem, also to no response.
The solution is to remove CWM recovery then install the recovery. But before you do that, check your settings to see if you may already be at 4.0.4!
HTH

Another solution is to flash update you downloaded via www.samfirmware.com via odin or mobile odin

Maybe simple update question?

I have been reading about guys excepting the update and just rerooting after, so I tried it. Now when I 'rerooted with root 66 it brought me back to vralf 2. I checked for the update again and I get a msg saying com.samsung.syncmlservice has stopped? Now I know the number one rule is don't except updates, so don't preach just looking for help.. Also if I restore and except update then root will It keep the vlraf7 after rooting. Sorry for the mouthful in advance.

When you installed root66, what you essentially did was install a rooted version of VRLF2 over VRLG7. Probably the safest thing to do would be Odin back to complete stock, accept the update, then use a root method that takes advantage of an exploit rather than one that installs a rooted version of a ROM. There are other ways to accomplish what you want, but I think that would be the safest.

Can I update another way besides OTA?

Whenever I try to update I get a pop up that says "service unavailable"
Is there a way to update by putting the update file on my phone?
Thanks

Is this possible? Help!
Can't I download the zip of the update somewhere? I'm not to worried about small updates, I'm more concerened about whenever the jellybean update comes out.

All you have to do is flash a Rom with whatever update or features that you want.

I'm stock and didn't plan on rooting. I used to do all that with the original HTC EVO and it took up way too much of my time... so I was just wondering if there's a place where all the updates are in a zip format so I can apply any updates manually

Yes. People pull the downloaded ota and your can flash it in stock recovery. I have the lg7 update straight from Verizon if you want it. I think it only works on lf2. If your on lg1 I think you need a different one.
Edit: I'm going into work so I'm gonna post it for you just in case your welcome. This is not modified in any way whatsoever.

If you're stock and not rooted, you should be getting updates over the air from Verizon, you don't need to apply them manually.

I am not trying to be rude but did you read my original post? When I try to update OTA I get a popup saying "Service Unavailable" It's like my phone isn't connecting to Verizon's servers to get the OTA. So I need to apply them manually, unfortunately...if possible

Sorry, I missed that. As long as you aren't rooted and haven't otherwise messed with the phone at all, I'd go ahead and call Verizon and see what they can do. You should be getting updates OTA and if you are not through no fault of your own, it's their responsibility to fix it, especially with the huge security hole that was found in these phones recently.

I had a VW S3 that wasn't receiving the update for OTA and when I talked to the rep he said to use Kies. Kies does say that it will update your phone but I had a problem connecting it. The only way the app will update is if you have your phone connected through USB. I tried and tried and tried but I couldn't get the computer to see my phone in the Kies program to sync it. It would connect through WiFi real quick.

I downloaded kies but apparently my device does not support updating via kies

Give Samsung a call because on the website it does away that Kies will update your software over USB.

all share not working eveng with triangle away

hi,
like many of you i rooted my note 10.1 and am using collective rom , but want to get it to work with allshare.
triangle away doesn't seem to work at all, the device just stays at connecting.
are there any other options?

I don't see how triangle away would fix your problem, my device is rooted with over a dozen clicks on the counter and it doesn't effect my all share casting.

I found you needed to have the "custom" status in settings as official to work...
I needed to make sure the recovery was stock and finally jusat reverted to a stock rooted rom. I did need to install the stock rom through Mobile ODIN and do a complete wipe. This reset all status's and reset the flash counter as I had run triangle away before flashing...

Did you reset the dongle when trying to connect? I do not encounter problems, but must usually restart device (to temporarily disable SU- make sure appropriate box is checked in Triangle away) prior to connecting.

Android pay ota and keep root

If i take this ota does it all me to re root
Sent from my SM-N920P using XDA Premium HD app

You cant take the ota if you are rooted. It will dl but wont install if you twrp or another recovery. You need to be 100% stock and yes the same root process works from what i can find.

Just incase that didn't make sense.
When your rooted the updates show up and if you click the update or start the update..... it will download and try to install but it fail and give an error because you are rooted. So to answer your question nothing will happen if you try an update. You won't loose root but you also won't get the update installed either.
In order to update during a root you need to do it all manually with files provided on here. OTA or stock updates wont take and will just fail.

Tripped KNOX, bye OTA and Samsung Pay.

If you are stock with Knox tripped, you can still take ota. You can't take the ota ifbubr rooted.
