Hello all,
I was getting that stupid 80180048 error trying to update to the mango beta. I'm on a student developer account and have never used Chevron yet still getting this error. After many frustrating hours trying everything I could think of I finally found this advice on the apphub forums.
1) Flash your phone back to its stock form... I simply search for "flashing rom focus" here and I found my rom at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131022
2) Start Mango process over
This removed whatever was causing me the problems that resulted in the 80180048. It's a pain to re-install my apps and settings but my phone is now updated to Mango Beta.
Hope this helps if you were stuck as I was.
This worked perfectly for me! Thank you.
for those who did "Walsh" their phones to get NoDo early...
ATT Focus in the US - not dev unlocked and no other modifications
I had originally used the "Walsh" updater to get NoDo early.
I used the "unwalsh" tool when it first showed up (well before the Mango beta was available), but I learned yesterday I used it incorrectly. Instead of selecting all keyboard languages present on the device, I selected only the active language.
I had the same "80180048" error when the 4.8 Zune software was trying to install the first of the two Mango-related updates.
I re-used the "unwalsh" tool, this time selecting all of the keyboard languages present, and the Mango Beta update installed successfully.
I did NOT need to flash back to stock 7004, thankfully.

Make sure you read that thread before updating, look for posts from Rafael, specifically. He also links to an updated (June 29, I think) version of the "unwalsh" tool.
I had the same experience.
Sent from my Windows Phone Mango Focus using Board Express
reflashed and done everything from the beginning but still get the same error. Ive tried everything thats been said.
My sister had a brand new Omnia 7 that I went through the updating process a few weeks, and I actually got this error when trying to install Mango for her. Tried everything I could (such as using the WP Support tools, Samsung Omnia 7 tools), but nothing could get Mango to install.
Decided to take the plunge and try flashing and now the phone is better than ever and happily running Mango. I think it's possible that there was an issue with the firmware or bootloader (it was an earlier version number than mine, and I was using XXJID).
After seeing how easy it was I decided to take the plunge and flash mine to the latest firmware available too, and it actually fixed up a few problems/bugs I've always had with the phone. So yeah, if you don't care about losing your texts/settings/game saves and you're feeling brave, I'd definitely recommend flashing your phone to the latest available rom
Neither I nor my buddy could update our Samsung Focus' to Mango without getting this error.
My buddy even spent an hour last night trying to get his phone to upgrade and always came up with the above error message.
Now today, BOTH of our phones were able to update to Mango via Zune without doing/changing anything.
It seems like MS was true to their word when they said they would have a fix for this issue.
I hope that everyone can now upgrade hassel free because Mango is beautiful.
This was my only work around. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1174848

Hi, I just got my gsm galaxy nexus i9250 today with stock android 4.0.1. I heard that 4.0.4 will cause signal loss bug so I'm hoping that I can update to 4.0.2 OTA or 4.0.3 instead. So where do I download a stock 4.0.2 or 4.0.3 to flash it? There's only 4.0.4 factory image in the google developers site (xda don't allow me to post link because this is my first post).
Can someone help please? Sorry if this question have been asked before. Thank you.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1372376&highlight=stock+4+0+2
you could do this. this stock 4.0.2 rooted that you flash via CWM. it was the quickest thing i could find for your request.

The problems with the network have been fixed in a small update (i think it was 500 kb or so) from google. You won't experience the issues we had 2 MONTHS AGO when you just flash version 4.0.4 with Build number IMM761. Android 4.0.4 is way better than 4.0.2...
How did you even get 4.0.1? my phone (european samsung version) came with 4.0.2 from the box back in march.

technically it is a custom rom, but all it is stock rooted with busybox.
as far as an official one. you could flash a say a yakjuux or another variant of yakju that would be official just updated by samsung instead of google.

I wouldn't do that! if I were you
to explain this I have to tell you this:
there are diffrent versions of the ROM available. When your phone comes from the US you have a big chance that you are running Yakuja (the official Google branded ROM). but when you live outside the USA or got your phone from a non-US batch you have diffrent "Samsung branded ROMS". there's not such a big difference other than samsung checks the update and leaves things out that should not be available in your country...
You might brick your phone really nasty when you go update it with the wrong "ROM brand". If you really insist on getting the latest update (4.0.4) and when it doesn't come to you in the normal OTA way. try this thread bellow:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895
In the process you will get the latest version of Android without the need for modified recoveries. This is "the legit Google way".

Oh if the problem is gone then I would just update it to the latest 4.0.4 then I'm just worried because I read a lot of article saying that 4.0.4 causing signal loss when phone is in sleep mode. I got a used one (like new) from Amazon maybe thats why it's still 4.0.1
Nope, my European stock rom came without Google books (comes standard with android). and did not get full functionality on the NFC (since our public transportation cards can be hacked using NFC). There is a difference between brands.
above that, the method posted in the link is how it should be done. If you check the official Android documentation you'll see the same description (but with some expensiver words). It's a proven way that is and has been reliable and save for a long time. of course I know what CWM is and does. But these ways are just ok.
I don't think the OP needs Root on his phone when he doesn't even know how to update a phone.
And in the technique described on the xda page I revered to (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895) you can actually relock the OEM after the switch, which means you have a very high chance of keeping the factory warranty (they will only notice it when they dig in to the phone really really really deep, but even then you would be considered to be a "stock" user in most of the cases).
When you have CWM sitting in your phones memory they will notice that. If you had it in your phones memory they will notice to (since the phone keeps past-version records on a save place).

Nope just update it.
if your updater doesn't work for some reason try this:
go to settings > hit apps > go to the tab "all" > open the settings for the app "google services framework" > hit "clear data" > hit "force stop" > go back to the main list in the settings app > hit "about phone" > check for updates (it should give you "last checked 1977 or so")
If you got this phone second hand and haven't factory resetted it yet. you should, the previous owner might have left traces from his usage or things that can compromise your privacy behind. this can be done from settings > storrage > factory reset
Good luck with android 4.0.4. You'll love it!

If you are realy curious about what version you have you can check this app:

It's completely harmless! It will check the brand on the phone and provide you with details.
Thanks a lot man. I really appreciate your and Zepius' help. Definitely gonna go with 4.0.4 now. I see you're from Netherlands, definitely gonna root for them this Euro 12!

No, that is not a stock ROM, and no it is NOT just a stock ROM that is rooted with busybox. It is a deodexed, zipaligned ROM, with a non-stock kernel.
If you use that, you will no longer be able to use OTA updates to update to a new version -- you will have to re-install a full ROM.
As for flashing a yakjuux build, why??? It makes no sense. Why would he flash a build which would get updates later than a yakju build?

Yeah, he mentioned he didn't want 4.0.4, so you should recommend yakju 4.0.2, not a non-yakju build, as a non-yakju build will screw him if he wants any updates beyond 4.0.4.

Hello,
I am currently with Freedom Mobile, but my phone was purchased through Rogers, has the open Network Bands to use the Freedom network, and a new P6 Freedom Mobile SIM Card. My phone is also running as HTC_001.
Before modifying my phone and having to re-do everything I may have done in the past:
Can anyone on either Freedom Mobiles network with their stock RUU confirm they have the Wifi Calling option and it works?
To be able to use services of a carrier, like WiFi calling etc, you MUST be using a firmware that came from that carrier. If freedom issue a specific firmware for the m9 you must use it. If they don't and their phones come "network unlocked/debranded", ie using the 401 firmware, then you should be able to access the WiFi etc on any device. Another example is if you want to use tmobile features then you need a tmobile firmware.
So the question you need to find the answer to is "does freedom carrier have a branded firmware for the m9".
You are correct. Based on my research earlier, I came across that same conclusion.
I think the best/only way to test this however, is a) if someone has a latest version of their branded firmware and can check this or b) I get a TWRP restore and install this on my phone (I assume this is possible and not IMEI restricted) or c) I find another way to get to a stock firmware.
I changed my CID back to the Freedom Mobile one and downloaded the stock TWRP backup from the old Canadian Stock ROM thread, but it is either too large or possibly too old and incompatible with my phone.
I had to use ADB commands through computer to restore, and it looked like it would accept. However, the computer was stuck at "unlock phone screen to continue" and TWRP said "MTP enabled."
Those backups are most likely too old. You can try to find a suitable RUU on easy-firmware or you need to contact llabtoofer's RUU service since at the moment there is no freely available RUU for your phone. The links can be found in the FAQ of the ReadMe thread.

Just a quick update. I ended up aborting this "project" of mine.
Despite using Mac OS, encountering corrupt zip files and other files issues where I would get an 22 RU_HEADER_ERROR, I ended up finding my biggest issue.
My MID was set to OPJA10000, instead of 0PJA10000. This issue caused multiple hours of frustrations. I have now flashed my phone back to stock 4.28.401.3. I will most likely have to reinstall TWRP and restore my previous backup.
On another note, is anyone else unable to find the HTC Mail app in Google Play store? Mine crashes every time I try to reply to emails or create a new one. Google Play Store on the computer shows my M9 is not compatible.
Get rid of Google Chrome. I don't know what's exactly the reason but current chrome versions break the HTC Mail app.
Sent from my HTC One M9 using XDA Labs
Same for me. Not compatible.
Just an update to this.
They released a new version of HTC Mail v10.70.1031252.
Based on quick trials, this has resolved the recent issues regarding HTC Mail and Google Chrome being at the latest version, regarding crashing when creating a new email or replying, but I have not tested it extensively.
I know this should be a new thread with a proper title instead of piggybacking on an old one, so if a mod can create one (or prefers I do), that would be great.
Dear all,
This is my first post and I have bought a honor 7x on ebay and I noticed after a few months that I cannot update the phone as there is no system update button. I contacted the seller but ofcourse he was not of any help.
From what I understood( correct me if i'm wrong), the seller installed a custom firmware on the phone so that there is no chinese on the phone. but with these custom firmware, there is no updates. I also get a message upon restart( please find the picture below)
I would like to update the phone . is it possible to update the phone or roll back to stock firmware so I can be notified of updates.
Please find the necessary attachment. Please let me know what I can do as I cannot access my mobile network section( hence cannot switch on roaming) .
i live in Europe and use english as phone language.

ok so you get the warning message, so bootloader is unlocked. Means you should be able to modify it.
your model is "BND-AL10" your region is "C00"
there are many full roms available for this model.

you should be able to install almost any of them through the firmware finder app search play store--- if you have google play installed

Thank you for your quick response.
I install the firmware finder on the play store but I couldn't trigger the update as there is no update button on the settings system.
Even though I do not have the update option in my settings, I can follow instructions to update the phone manually through the computer. If i understood correctly, I can follow these instruction: appuals.com/manually-update-honor-7x-al-10-firmware/
Is it possible to install another firmware on the phone so that I have the update option and also the mobile network section( hence cannot switch on roaming). I travel a lot and the data roaming is important for me.
I am completely new to this as I was an apple user, hence still discovering android possibilities

don't get a bad idea of android based on this device. It has way more specific weirdness about it than any other android I have had.
There is way to change to other area firmware, but do not try that yet. Your device is missing stuff , probably because previous owner deleted it, not because to version it is.
download fullOTA files for your devices listed model/ region and use HWOTA to install.

Hello, I did the update via the HiSuite of Huawei. I got the notifications on the windows programs. I did 2 update ( one for the system and the other one was the emui)
Now I cannot open google play or any google applications(maps, gmail, etc)
do you know how I can remedy that?
My emui version is 8.0.0
android version 8.0.0
It is a bit frustrating
my google play version is Google Play Store 10.8.32-all [0] [PR] 205344279 (240-480dpi) (Android 4.1+) 5 WHICH I updated through the Hisuite Update and downloaded this apk.
Title says it all, is there a non root way to hurry up the update? I haven't had the popup to update android and was hoping there's a way to check for updates
Settings/system I believe, to check for updates or you can download and sideload the update.
Full OTA Images for Nexus and Pixel Devices | Google Play services | Google for Developers
developers.google.com
Aside from pressing "System Update" under the "System" panel in the Settings menu, the only other way to push the update forward would be doing it manually (using adb through command prompt).
But the probable reason as to why you aren't getting an option to download the update yet is due to your phone carrier. When Google releases new factory images for the next update build, the phone carriers take the image and modify it first, usually to add some bloatware apps into the mix. It's at that point where they will send the update out and you will get the notification to download and install the update. That's how they can get their apps/bloatware onto a bunch of phones. It's basically a practice of coercion that most phone carriers use to force out more app installations of their own, crummy apps/bloatware lol.
This next part is just a guess, but I'm assuming that they do this in an attempt to pull in a little more money. It's a real shame =/.

Umm I might be wrong but wouldn't that mean there is a downloadable version of the "carrier" build with these modifications. I know some months google does release carrier builds but they drop the same day as the none carrier ones. And my understanding was that usually those builds exist to better utilize the network capabilities of a specific network.
But this month for instance has one build for the 6 models. If what you discribe is true then the builds pushed to carrier models would have a different hash check.

You're pretty much correct here. I suppose that Google was a bad example to use. But essentially, the carrier builds allow the applicable carrier to also push apks through when you pull the update OTA. They're not necessarily packaged within the factory image - so I had some horrible word choices in my initial post as they don't really modify the image lmao. But (when looking at the older builds) if you just install the stock build instead of flashing one of the carrier builds, then you won't have to worry about any carrier apps being pulled in along with your OTA update.
But heck, if you're rooted and want to maintain root (and are thus manually updating whilst having OTA disabled), then you wouldn't have to worry about this at all, haha.
Samsung phones were a better example of this, as whenever I would do an OTA update on my S21U, it would also install around 4-5 T-Mobile bloatware apps. But if you manually installed the stock image, that wouldn't happen anymore when updating OTA.
