New update today from MT2-L03V100R001C00B126 to MT2-L03V100R001C00B148

Mine fails. Downloads the update, reboots, then fails to write patch. Where is this update stored? I want to try to save it to external SD and update that way. Anyone know?

My Bootloader is unlocked, and phone rooted. Would that prevent the update? Mt friend has same phone and he is rooted, bootloader unlocked, and his took the update just fine. Scratching my head.

Any help?

This is the Error I am getting.....
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] foltz61:
Look in either /sdcard/HwOUC or /storage/sdcard1/HwOUC. Note that the update_sign.zip is deleted after a failed update. It's not deleted if you try to update from recovery manually and it fails.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] rekamyenom:
I will Download the Update, then tell it to remind me later on the install, then try to locate the update where you said. I feel if I locate and save the update to the external SD, I can get it to take....

Found it under /storage/sdcard1/HwOUC

Tried installing from recovery (stock), "apply update from External Storage" Phone reboots, and same results (See pic). Dam!
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] foltz61:
The stock recovery can only see the external sdcard so that's fine.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] rekamyenom:
I think I need to rename the .zip to something else to do a Local Update
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] foltz61:
No. You will be able to select it from recovery.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] rekamyenom:
I tried and selected the update_sign.zip but same result

Going to try this

1. Unzip the downloaded update file

2. Place the Update.app from the update_sign.zip inside a folder named “dload” on your SD card root directory

3. Power off and turn on your Ascend Mate by holding volume down + volume up + power button (or do a local update from system update)

Update: When I did this it said it was successful, but according to my build number, it did not.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] foltz61:
There is no update. app in my zip. I just booted to stock recovery and chose install zip from internal sd. I selected update_sign.zip and let it do it's thing.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] rekamyenom:
Tried that and get the same fail....
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] rekamyenom:
I will try from internal sd I was trying from external...

Same results "Assert Failed" after checking patch files...

Frustrating as hell...

Update took on 2 other identical phones but not this one.... Strange

I'm stumped... Guess I will sleep on this until I can figure it out.... Appreciate the input, if anyone has any ideas, chime in.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] xordos:
pls check the system update thread in general section, you have to restore all the to-be-upgrade files to stock. i have posted a system files zip there. (sorry, type in phone, hard to paste link)

--UPDATE

also, if you are missing facebook app, It is in the /cust/normal/us/app location, I just uploaded zip to the one google drive folder with the system zip:

Ill try that now thanks......
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] arcadesdude:
The build.prop error might be because you may have changed it away from stock (for xposed to work for example). It has to be changed for the update to work. You can change it back afterwards.

See here for update procedure:

[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] rekamyenom:
I have stock recovery, never changed it, the only thing I ever did to the build.prop with root browser and an editor, was add to line items for a keyboard I am using. I may have deleted a few apps (Can't remember) with Chef's App freezer...

Here are the 2 lines I added to build prop

ime_extend_row_keyboard=true

ime_vibration_pattern=0:20
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] arcadesdude:
Remove those lines and try the update again. It probably does checks to ensure it is unedited before patching. You can add that back after updating.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] rekamyenom:
Tried removing the lines and no go. Did a back up then a factory reset, then tried update, still same error.... Going to try to go over the build.prop line by line now.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] arcadesdude:
Here's the stock build.prop file in a zip (attached). Unzip then copy build.prop to your sd card. Use ES File Explorer in root explorer mode. It goes in /system

For reference, the owner is root and the permissions are rw- r-- r-- (644).
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] superbass311:
Has this issue been resolved?
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] arcadesdude:
Yes and you helped resolve it :)
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] rekamyenom:
FYI, to all. Make sure you have ALL the Stock system apps on your HAM2 (replace any you deleted), then replace your current build.prop with the stock build.prop using ES File Explorer with root explorer enabled and you WILL reveive the update. :good:

My Huawei G8 fails installing the OTA updates too (in the middle of installing process). I stopped OTA process before mobile reboots, so the update_sign.zip is still there. But it contains lot of directories/files (/patch/...). Is there a way to make an image file out of it, so that I can flash it?

Chilli
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] Davinci50:
is the recovery stock on this phone?? if not it will fail, also make sure twitter and facebook are installed.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] Chilli71:
I have stock image on phone.

But I noticed that I have not flashed all partitions. Eg. paritition 'cust' is missing.

As soon as I have the opportunity (I hope already before the weekend) I will wipe the storage and try to flash from zip instead of flashing the partitions individually. Then nothing can be missing. If OTA still does not work I will try to create images from the files that have been stored with OTA download. I did not find the particular Marshmallow stock ROM RIO-L01C150B331CUSTAUTC150D004 on the web yet.

Edit/Update: This will be a task for the weekend.

I flashed twrp on my phone made not only a wipe but deletion of content (everything but SD card).

Flashing Android 51.1 from zip was not possible since android-info.txt & Co are not available. So I flashed all images that appeard to make sense. Some images/partitions where refused (e.g. cust.img).

After firing phone up and downloading OTA Marshmallow failed again at 20% of update after reboot.

But now suddenly phone storage is only 2GB. I have no idea how this could happen (same image as before, not twiddled around with partitions). It will need some resarch on the weekend to figure out why.

Making images out of the OTA file I captured is also not feasible, as I found could not figure out which files go to which partition.

So my plan is: Fix the internal storage issue and live with 5.1.1 until Huawai releases Marshmallow ROM for manual download.

Chilli
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] Chilli71:
I'm giving up on my G8. The reason for 2GB internal storage was that I flashed the userdata.

I wiped & erased everything again and repaired all paritions with TPWR to go for sure. Installed stock ROM (via fastboot). Wiped everything via stock recovery. Relocked the bootloader. Started OTA and it failed againt. No ideas left.

[Moto X Q&A] mauri6870:
So apparently the Moto X t-mobile variant (XT1053) supports US bands 4 and 17 LTE (and band 2), and has an amplifier for bands 12/17, which are disabled by default. I was wondering if there is any way to flash/modify the radio to enable band 12 for tmobile? Has anyone actually attempted to do so?

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] menos08642:
I've noticed that ever since I upgraded to 38R I keep getting disconnected from my bluetooth car stereo. When it disconnects the Bluetooth icon on the OPO goes grey. It looks like the Bluetooth module is crashing and then getting reset by the OS. I just got done with a 30 minute drive and it happened 3 times. Has anybody else noticed anything funky with the Bluetooth stack?

I've also had the phone itself hard crash several times. Not sure if 38R is ready for prime time.

I'm not running anything custom, just pure 38r on a rooted/twrp device. No exposed or other mods.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DirkBelig:
I updated manually last night and this morning on the drive in, I had it suddenly switch from my Ford's Sync system to the internal speaker. The dash display showed the phone was attached and when I switched from Pocket Casts to Play Music, it reflected what was playing, but the sound came out of the phone, not the car stereo. I went into the settings and toggled music off and on, switched Bluetooth off and on, then switch the stereo to AM radio then back to Bluetooth and it behaved properly.

I was using Waze which keeps the screen on and things were fine until I got off the freeway and shut down Waze. The screen shut off after a minute as normal, but when I double-tapped the screen to wake the display up, the audio dropped from the stereo and started playing from the phone. Hmmmm. I unpaired Sync and deleted the OPO from the car's side and I re-paired the phone.

It seemed OK until my drive home just now when once again, tapping the screen to wake it up cause the audio to drop back to the speaker. Since I don't use nav apps all the time, this is clearly an unacceptable bug that makes me wonder HTF they're beta-testing. It's nice that the GPS doesn't seem totally broken and the touchscreen goofiness is gone, but being unable to maintain Bluetooth connectivity for media is a huge gaffe.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] menos08642:
Ok, I'm still trying to figure out what is going on here. I restored my TWRP backup from 33R and I had two bluetooth crashes on the way home today. Could there be a firmware update that is causing this that would not have been rolled back as part of the restore? I've read online that there is no new radio in 38R? Is there something else causing it?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] menos08642:
I ran the full 33r factory image and it fixed the Bluetooth issues. I ran that way for a couple of days and had no BT problems even on a 2+ hour drive. I did a clean 33r to 38r OTA and within the first 30 minutes in the car had a BT freeze and disconnect. Its pretty clear, at least with my device, that there is something wrong with the BT stack on 38r.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ndy4eva:
I have little different but seems to related with BT.

When BT is enabled, my wifi performance drops significantly. I tried to remove all paired devices and reset BT config, but nothing really fixed the issue. I need to turn off BT completely, if my wifi speed goes down. I'm running 38R. I don't think I noticed any issue on 33R. :confused:

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WhizzBang:
I'm having this exact same issue since upgrading to 38r. Bluetooth audio works fine until screen goes off and I turn it on again. Then audio comes out of the phone, but Bluetooth icon is still lit up and otherwise still connected to the car. VERY annoying.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmarden:
Yeah... Right now when I get into the car, audio plays though the speaker (despite bluetooth connection) unless I open Play Music specifically. Somehow that does something that also fixes other apps (Slacker, book readers, etc).
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaanfx:
I'm on 44S, and have a similar issue. Had the issue since 38R though. Bluetooth stays connected to my car fine if I'm not using the OPO or if I'm just streaming music. But in phone calls, it drops the bluetooth all the time. Really really annoying.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NCguy:
I'm having same problem. Disconnects but just on calls and this happens with my BT headset. This doesn't actually happen on my stock Nexus 5. I'm thinking CM must be using different BT drivers? It's been the same on 33 and 44. I'm betting it carries to 5.0. If I don't find a workaround I may be forced to go to a different ROM. Just have no idea which one may be unaffected?

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] con100:
So I must of somehow disabled it or something when I first rooted my phone and don't remember. But I'm following JTidler guide on how to update and one of the steps is to take the ota update. But I can't take it since the System update button is missing under the System section of the settings. Anyone know how to get it back? I'm still on 4.4.2 if that means anything.

Update: I used the searched Software update using the settings search button and it shows up in the results. But when you click on it it just takes you back to the main screen of settings.

Yeah looks like I did. I ran a script that someone made to remove all the bloatware and I just looked at the list and SDM was included. Looks like they put all the apps that were removed in a zip file to install everything back.

Edit. Just reinstalled it and I have that option again. Thanks for the help. I would have never known to look for SDM.

Hello!

Few days ago I bought a Verizon One max, tho I live outside the US, it shipped with 4.4.2 and sense 5.5, but I'm not getting the OTA, I guess it's because I'm not using the Verizon network, so I tried to install the OTA manually, but as soon as I select recovery in the hboot mode, the phone restarts, shows the HTC logo and after that a permanent red sign (see the photo) If I don't get into recovery mode, am I stuck in sense 5.5 permanently? Is there a way around this? Help me please!! Thanks a lot in advance!

Rename this file to 0P3PIMG.zip and place on your sd card. Boot to boot loader and it should find and flash it.

Then remove your sd card and delete that file. Download the below file and rename it to 0P3PIMG.zip and place it on your sd card. Boot to boot loader and let it flash this one. .

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] talk2nate:
My wife has a note 8.0 with the latest ota. Ever since the ota She gets a message that the tablet is overheating. You seriously can have like two apps open on a fresh boot and it'll do this...should I warranty replace it or flash different software? I'm in need of a solution.

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] a_firefly:
I have the same problem after the kitkat update...the message pop up while i was running the browser, nothing else, and the battery drain pretty fast too.

Additionally, this is not related to the over heating message and battery issue, but the update with the new security policy is screwing up file management via 3rd party app like ES file manager, no longer able to move, and delete files...
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] talk2nate:
I just wish I knew if rooting and changing the software would resolve this or not. Or if I should just contact Samsung and have it warranty replaced. Its a tough call to make.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] gooberdude:
Well, my fix for 4.2.2 was to remove google play music, or disable it in application manager.

As it would convert cover art into jpg files for caching. Google uses antiquated media caching, so I replaced my play music with a Nokia port which is more like Apples music player in Ipods in function.

Plus I use Wanam Xposed to disable further thumb nail caching within Android. Without both tweaks I would have over 600MB of useless cache files that were constantly updated during boot up.

As a note... I never turn off my tablet unless I am needing to test with it. I let it stay in standby mode as it holds a charge longer. Booting up and having everything get setup takes a lot of CPU cycles thus eats the top portion from battery storage.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] daboyal006:
I was curious about the release date in best buy and Verizon stores of the note 4.Since I seen 17th and 23rd.. so I tweeted both on Twitter about this question. and I got a surprising response..
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Rippley05:
It's the 23rd. Why would Verizon advertise the 23rd if it wasn't? Nothing to gain and they actually lose to every other US carrier that's getting it the 17th. We just need to accept this already
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] ronaldheld:
The only solace of being a week late is that that time could be used to root the other phones.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] MrWicked1:
In due time we will have it, its getting close.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] phobos512:
A number of the Korea and China market devices have already been rooted; however, there's no guarantee those methods will even work for the Verizon device until its released and people have an opportunity to fiddle with it.

Also, right on VZW's site it says the 23rd. No reason to doubt that. There's no requirement for multiple carriers to release a device all on the same day, no matter how annoying that might be.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] ronaldheld:
I agree that the rooting of those Asian phones may be of no help to us.

The 23d is two weeks away! The store has ads pushing note edge.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Hardknockz313:
I pre ordered my Note 4 through Verizon, and when I called and spoke with a Verizon Rep, I inquired about the release date of the Galaxy Note 4. After he looked into his computer, he informed me that the release date of the phone was Oct. 17th... and that the date on my Pre Order receipt which was listed as Oct. 23, was in fact the latest ETA in which I may receive my device. But I've also been hearing rumors that the US could get its shipment a few days earlier than the 17th... I hope those rumors turn out to be true :D
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] billinaz:
Considering that Samsung prints an exclusion for Verizon, and states everything prior to the 23rd is a PRE order, its not likely they are showing up until then.

Other carriers will have it on the 17th, so we have to wait.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] simpletona70:
I have faith. Even as I ordered in store the guy told me they give that date out just to cover themselves. He seemed very confident I would receive it sooner. I'll only know when I notice they charge my card for the remaining balance I have after using my wifes $200 promo from her iphone 6.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] lazer9:
I finally got my pre-order done through Best Buy local store after much hassle and run-around (see my other posts in the Best Buy Promotion... what is going on thread).

Anyhow as of yesterday when I completed the pre-order in person and purchased the $50 gift card, I was specifically told they were getting ALL pre-orders in on the 17th and expect it then.

With what all I've been through with a lot of mis-information mainly based on their trade-in policy and pre-order availability in the past week and a half, I'm not holding my breath for that date in reality. :silly:

Rumors eh? No offense, but rumors from who? Be happy if it doesn't get pushed back right before release like it did in the UK.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] rushless:
Best Buy and Verizon have a date and that is 10/23. Several stores each and same answer. Ditto for customer service, so not sure why people would think at this current time no confirmed date and it ain't this week.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] jayochs:
because people want to wish their phones would come early then get upset when it's not here the 17th and start badmouthing verizon because of it despite the fact verizon never once said the 17th and always stuck to the 23rd lol
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] rushless:
That is true. The only date I have heard from Verizon is 10/23 and Best Buy are now saying the same thing. My guess is some BB staff and customers assumed that since the other devices are around 10/17, must be the same for VZW.

Verizon has never deviated from 10/23 and Best Buy had no date until last week. Ditto for the $200 terms that specify contract-only for the Best Buy offer. That popped up early last week too.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] Hovscorpion12:
The Galaxy Note 4 goes Live on Oct 17 for all carriers in store. Verizon ships the Note 4 on Oct 23. Verizon confirmed this in September.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] _ranch:
The launch guide that Best Buy has been circulating for that past week to employees specifically states the Verizon Note 4 is the 23rd.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] rushless:
Live can also mean demos to galk at. There is no sign of the 17th for VZW, but the most consistent is sadly the 23rd.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] lazer9:
No biggie to me, however, if this is true then this will be the 7th lie involving 6 different Best Buy locations and a new lie at that.

I was specifically told the 17th be there to pick it up when I recently pre-ordered through Best Buy.

Prior deceptions were due to there trade-in acceptance program... *sigh*
