[Q] Trouble upgrading to Gingerbread

I'm getting an error when I try and ugprade my Android version. I'll start with the history and spec first:
Google Nexus One, bought in April 2010, it had Eclair (2.1) on it. I wanted Froyo 2.2 (for the hotspot/tethering) but the update delays being what they were I ended up rooting it, getting clockworkmod, and installing CyanogenMod 6 (based on 2.2). It's been the same ever since and I've been happy with it. It's only because a month or two ago it stopped being able to update any of the apps that I'm even wanting to upgrade, otherwise I'd be happy with CM6. I can no longer update or even search for apps. If I can't go back to plain Android because I've gone CyanogenMod, that's fine, I'll just go for a newer version of it.
I'm not wanting to live on the bleeding edge with ICS4 on this old-timer (yes I've heard it runs but with bugs), so if I can, I'll go for a plain vanilla Gingerbread 2.3.3.
I downloaded 2.3.3 from here and renamed it update.zip and put it in the root of my SD card. I shut the phone down and then followed the instructions I found here.
It seemed like it would be easy, but I'm getting this error after choosing "Apply sdcard: update.zip". After the error I show two screenshots of how I got to that point.

For anyone with the same issue, you could have posted the solution here.Dont promote other sites.
I think the problem was with the file.
Sometimes the browsers get bugged and they dont download the whole package.
I have had this error a couple of times and re-downloading the rom fixed the solution.

[ROM][Sep 07, 201][ICS][Official] Downloading US version now

This morning I was checking the update for my GT-P2610. Low and behold, it is now downloading the official version of ICS now.:victory:
Edit: Kudos to Samsumg, It kept my root.

I think it's the same one that is available at sammobile. But it's cool to hear that it's now available as an OTA and that your root was kept

I was wondering if you noticed if there is a difference between the size & amount of space ics takes up after you updated from honeycomb to this ics? I was wondering if I'll have to make sine space for the update. I'm also wondering if you know if it'll reinstall any system apps (the apps that come preinstalled with the tablet) that have been uninstalled or if it'll just update to ics & leave everything else alone like it's supposed to. Sounds hopeful if it kept your root!

You mean re-installing bloatware apps during ICS upgrade? I think I saw a forum post saying that it was "recommended" to reinstall any removed bloatware app before attempting the ICS upgrade(maybe I did read wrong), I suggest to look at those post first just to be sure.

My OTA update failed... Must be due to root, titanium update, etc. Had to go the Kies route. Kies installer would not run on windows 7... Tried downloading multiple times with 3 different browsers... Same result...program too big to fit in memory!
Finally had to download kies installer to tab, changed extension to zip, emailed the zip to my laptop, changed zip back to exe, and wallah... Successful install ok kies!
Then used kies to upgrade to ICS. Talk about a round-a-bout method!
But ICS up and running. Going to try using Chrome browser.

Thanks for this... but it force closes for me whenever I open up. The same was true with the download from the Play Store.
I'm running AOKP 4.1 on a Galaxy Tab 10.1. Any thoughts?

I recommend deleting the old Voice Search.apk Flie before flashing Gapps.zip's because developers arent removing the old google search bars and voice search apk's. I found after deleting all old google search apps and files then reboot back into Recovery and flash your Gapps.zip file and try again. It seem to stop the crashing. But If you already have things setup on your device I'd recommend deleting both Voice Search.apk and or file names such as QuicksearchBox.apk and try re-installing Google Search again might help.
Hope any of this helps. My methods aren't the greatest but I had just messed around for a little bit tell I got it to stop crashing.
The only crashing I get with my Google Now is when I try a voice search command with "What's this Song?" with the new update.

Thanks for the Link I posted it up in my post for others to find quickly.

How about downloading it again with evozi or aurora?

Okay, I tried both of those things and it says Conflicting packages. It could also be Because I also installed a Netflix apk from somewhere else but I had uninstalled it.

Sadly, I must admit to give up at this point... but I am curious: Where did you get it then?

I got it from a telegram channel, I had previously downloaded Netflix from telegram in the past but this had never happened to me before. The apk said,nit was unlocked for 4k viewing with any plan you have so I got greedy I guess..

Oh, suspected as much Well, I prefer remuxes for 4k

What is remixes?! And can you please tell where can I find the solution or who can help me, with this? Thank you btw for helping me so far..

You are welcome. Have run out of ideas. Just for the future, before installing apk from somewhere, do yourself a favour and check them with virustotal before installing.
PS: Alas, cannot tell such things in this forum, sry. google will tell you anyway

Okay, I understand, Thank you for your help.
P.S. Give me your Email cause I googled and now I have more questions lol
