If you have titanium backup, search in TB for "software update" and freeze it.

i dont have root so i cant use it, any other idea? thanks

Maybe delete the downloaded file? It's probably in the download folder.

its not there, its probably in hiden partition.

No need for factory reset. Just clear the data in the application manager and turn off check for update in the settings.

Strange glitch...no update option (GT-P6210)

Good morming...I just was looking around under settings, and noticed under under the "about device", I dont have an option to check for updates. I remeber before seeing it, but would me being rooted have anything to do with that. I am enclosing a screenshoot to show what I mean. Any input on this would be appreciated.

Very weird. Are u sure it cant be scrolled ?
Or maybe try full wipe ?
Sent from my GT-S5830 using Tapatalk 2
Samsung remotely removed the option because they never plan on updating....
just kidding of course.
This happen to me a bunch of times, Its from removing a certain samsung .apk from /system/app/ not exactly sure which one.

Have u tried reboot?
Sent from my GT-S5830 using Tapatalk 2
I don't have one too. But I know I had one. I uninstalled the Update apk of some sort though so I know the reason why it isn't on mine. I also disabled it at Start-up.
Thank you all for your input. I just checked and I still have the software apk installed. And i did a reboot and still dont have the option to check for updates, so I guess I will try a wipe and see what that does.
Sent from my GT-P6210 using Tapatalk 2
Have you tried simply turning on and off the "Auto update" option right below the "Update (Check for updates)"-listing?
That sometimes helps.
I havent been on honeycomb for a long time, but I know this happened to me a few times, and I researched by deleting one samsung apk at a time. I think its the SamsungApps.apk or the samsung store, strangely enough.
there is a way to check for OTA's without this option in settings.. at least for gt-p6200 by going into service mode.. ( you can choose from 3 different OTA servers..; at least for my device I could)
cheers.
Update: I tried doing a full wipe but didnt restore the update button, so I had to reflash the firmware with Odin, and have the update option back. I just wished I knew what I deleted that caused this and not happen again.
Sent from my GT-P6210 using Tapatalk 2
Damn dude, it is very unlikely the ICS came as OTA update or samsung releases any HC OTA update before ICS. So you have all this trouble for a dead option.

Well, I've very similar problem with my P6210. I have Software update option in About device menu but if I tap Update (Check for software update) nothing happens since I put CWM to my tab.

Toggle the "Auto Update" button first couple of times and then the "Update". That should work.

Try to go back into recovery by hold down volume down and power button until you see while text on the screen then release both buttons, now press the volume down button until the "wipe data" is highlighted, now press the volume up button twice to execute factory reset. Once done see if you can boot back into the OS.

Your bootloader/recovery image maybe corrupted. Next thing to do is to flash a full Asus firmware. This will wipe out your root.

Unzip the zip file downloaded from Asus site, the final file name should be "US_epad-user-10.4.4.16.zip", copy this file to the root of your micro sdcard. turn off your device, Insert the sdcard back into your device, boot into recovery, by default RCK should be highlighted, just hit the volume up button to execute the upgrade. If you have a red android, try to rename the file to "EP201_768_SDUPDATE.zip" and try again. One thing that really bugged me is that wipe data (factory reset) did not work as normal, but ignore this for now.

@OP
I didn't get enough information as to why the firmware upgrade was failing. I was also going you could pull an xml fastboot for me from your existing setup if you are still rooted.
Please download this software https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tranquilice.toolbox and make an xml backup of you're current phone. I also want the XML backup but it it's very large, so you should break it up into 100mb files using 7 zip and re-compress it. Then post it to your Dropbox. Don't worry this backup doesn't have any personal data.
Then you can download the update file from my Dev-host account here :
http://d-h.st/JNV
And save the file to your external sdcard.
Boot into recovery, then try to apply the update from sdcard, and write down exactly all the information it says (maybe take a picture of it using another camera). And send me all the information.
How to boot into recovery:
1) Power off phone completely
2) press and hold both volume buttons and at the same time press the power button.
3) use the volume down button to navigate the the recovery option, then press volume up.
4) an Android on the side will appear, now tot can proceed with updating
How to apply update in recoveyr mode:
1) press and hold both volume buttons while pressing power button
2) a menu will appear, use the volume buttons to navigate and the power button to select the option to update from external sdcard
3) find the update file and press the power button on it.
4) watch the update, if it fails please tell me all error messages, hopefully tot can take a picture for me.

Did you try to modify the update package? It looks like the update package doesn't have the same signature as it should.
Do not try to open up the ZIP file provided, just place it on the external SD card without touching it.
If you get another error after that, please the new error.
I'm having the same problem cause I deleted the bloat ware from my Rogers phone. From what I've been reading, I'm thinking about just staying on the 4.0.4.

"FDR" -> Factory/Full Data Reset does not replace applications that have been deleted.
The only way to fix is to put them back or RSD/Flash back to stock.
I hate these threads.
People remove apps and wonder why the upgrade doesn't work.
Don't remove factory applications, freeze/disable them!!!!!
Removing them will remove the ability to upgrade until the OS is back to stock.
The installer checks to make sure that the system and application area is untouched.

If you tap and hold on a notification, it will reveal the source applications name, it should be something like ESLSecurityAgent or something like that.
anyway to remove that notification on a non rooted device ?, my brother installed the apk for the exchange email and receives the same notification , long press on it , app info no option to turn off notifications.

Worked!
Everything worked like a charm. I was already on nougat. followed instructions from step 2 and everything is working. I did have to run root.bat twice to get supersu app to show up, but it was already stated in directions which helped greatly for me not to freak out at that point lol. Anyways as i stated it worked like a charm and anyone on the fence if you rooted before you will be able to do this for sure. Once again thank you very much good sir!
Thanks for the root method I have been waiting for something to come out can't wait to try.
And just a heads up it is frowned upon on XDA to share paid apps.
About to attempt, will post results
How is it running? Smooth? hot?

Thanks for the work! But not sure what you mean here. Are you saying Knox was tripped? And you cant use volume up when adjusting volume?

Im guessing its a package i disabled or didn't disable so it will take a bit to sort out. Its no biggie i might need to reroot. I can still raise the volume if i press volume down and move the slider. This is the only minor problem I've seen.
Does anyone know where I can find the nougat firmware? Trying to start fresh after a not successful root. Thanks

Power On. It might seem laggy at first but let it load. Check and see if everything is working BT/HotSpot/Voice/MMS. Shouldnt have to edit any APN's or anything.

Okay, but what if there is no data? Then what?
Worked great buddy. No issues here. Runs just as smooth for me as stock did.

If that's the case I would suggest starting over...But just data? Can you call or text? Bluetooth?Hotspot? Is there an LTE symbol in notification bar with no data? Or is it just bars with no service completely? Double check your package disabler.

I imported your XML files for the disabled packages and attempted root. I had an error where it would take a few minutes for an app to update after downloading, do you know how to fix this?

I actually completely restarted the process by reflashing back to stock with the file you linked at the beginning and just followed the process again and got it working this time. Cheers for this tutorial. :good:

Try clearing google play store and google play services cache, if there is little cache then clear data and reenter your gmail. Youre talking about when updating in play store right? If not try only disabling these below instead [from goongydin's thread] and flash engineer. Or manually disabling from list(dont import). But once we disable these apps and flash boot img, these apps aren't supposed to change status which would mean repetitive testing. My honest answer is always going to be try from beginning again.
