Hey all,
I've been having trouble updating my Epic 4G Touch to the OTA update that's been recently rolling out.
After it has downloaded, the screen displays a green android robot, with a triangle next to its head containing an orange exclamation point. It remains frozen on this screen until I hold the power button, at which point it aborts the installation.
I've tried many things to fix this because it has happened 3 times, including doing a factory data reset, and formatting my USB storage. However these haven't helped.
Has anyone else had this problem, or know a solution?
Thanks!
BTW - I'm not rooted.
You r rooted and can't do an ota update because u do don't have stock recovery on your phone. So at this point just update the phone your self. U will find the new modem in the dev section. Please remember to us the search button this question has been asked before

Yeah, I've noticed this problem for rooted users, but it's strange, because I've never been rooted.
Sorry can't help u then. Good luck

Tried to do a battery rest as per the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=755903
I think i did something wrong.
Phone is currently stuck on a screen with a picture of a phone with a red triangle with an exclamation mark.
What do i do?
You're in recovery, press vol up and power and you get a small menu where you can select to apply the clockwordmod update.zip to reset your battery stats (assuming you're rooted)
Thanks so much. I thought something went horribly wrong.
My phone wasnt rooted, so i guess i shouldnt have even tried to reset the battery stats.
Thanks for the help.

Hi,
A long time ago, I believe I updated my HTC Hero with a custom ROM.
I currently have
- 2.1-update1
- SW: 3.32.405.2
I just sold the phone and tried to bring it back to factory settings.
But I can't.
It won't re-initialize and I can't even delete my GMAIL account.
In short, I don't care which version is installed, I just want the phone to be updated with an official ROM, so that its new owner can turn it on and configure it as if it was knew.
The phone is NOT rooted.
If anyone has a hint, I will consider it my XMas present.
Thanks a lot!

This is the desire forum, not hero.

Either wipe it from recovery or use a RUU http://www.shipped-roms.com/downloa...io_63.18.55.06P_6.35.15.11_release_signed.exe
Look it up, it's easy.

Mine is doing this too,
I tried rooting during the downgrade process (Because I had gingerbread) next thing that happened was when it would start up, it would take a very long time for the white htc screen to show up, and would vibrate (constantly) for 2 full minutes. the white htc screen would then show "quietly brilliant" under the logo and boot. but now it's going to the phone with red exclamation mark in a triangle. Phone is not rooted, hit power and volume up, went to update zip, told me invalid...
what's next?
*edit*
p.s. htc inspire 4g.
also before black screen w/ triangle I ran hack-ACE to put stock ruu back.
restarted again, and now it's usuable, but still does the looooong boot up.
No touch Screen Sensation
Hi forum I am in desperate need of some help. I have an HTC Sensation with a non responsive screen. There was a software update I believe on the forum that claims to resolve this problem. I want to try an upgrade or something hoping my screen issue can be resolved. My problem is how can I upgrade a stock ICS firmware without the use of the touch screen or touch buttons. Or even root the phone from the boot screen.
Second question can I load my external sd card in another Android phone like to load the software on it and then insert it into the Sensation and then linstall it from the boot screen?
Thanks for your help

Got a bit of a problem with installing 4.0.2 OTA on my phone. Twice i have received it, but both installs have failed. I get the same error; phone reboots into this install-mode, the androidguy pops up but after 2-3 seconds it just comes up an warning triangle and i have to take out my battery of i want to shut down the phone. Any idea why this is happening?
Both times i tried i was on mobile data, not wifi (i dont have wifi where i live atm).
Rooted and cutsom radio (XXKL1) but other than that it is stock. Also it is an yakjuxw version. HERE is a video that shows my problem.
EDIT: flashed 4.0.2 via toolkit V5.1, since i not could get it to work Now i just hope my backup is restorable.
You need the stock recovery and the correct radio for it to update successfully.

Exact same thing is happening to me. I have installed the stock recovery and everything.
I dont know what it is.
i cant remember what the stock radio is called But to get stock recovery, will uninstalling CWM do the job?
Do you have the yakju build or another variation?
You can also just flash the stock images in fastboot. They are located here.
http://code.google.com/android/nexus/images.html
I have the yakjuxw, but i downloaded the galaxy nexus toolkit v5,1 and i think i have stock recovery now, but i am not sure. Still having problems with finding out what the stock radio is, but if i dont find it i might as well flash the 4.0.3 yakju and just get done with it.
Actually, for me, I flashed 4.0.2 by doing this process here, because when I was flashing 4.0.1 I was getting the same process as the OP.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21113773&postcount=195
the process for 4.0.2 in the url works fine for me but when I go into recovery mode I get the android dude on his back with the red triangle like the OP gets also. So does anybody know what I need to do to get recovery to show up properly for me on my phone?

I believe you press volume up (or down, not sure) and the power button a few times to get the recovery menu to show up.

Is it a different recovery mode than the one accessible from fastboot mode?
Its the same one. There is only one. I did some research and with the Gnex when you get to recovery and see the android down, press both volume up and down then power.
This will bring up the menu.

omg! you are right, that is such a relief to know it is there after all, all this time I was expecting it to show up once it loaded up fully. I

Guys I tried updating to ICS using the method in the first post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1768479
OK guys I'm a little worried
I downloaded the file re-named it to "update" went into recovery and it asked me if I wanted to updated and i hit the up key for yes.
It says it's downloading and I have a green android and it's telling me "do not turn off target!!"
This has been going for over 30 minutes.......I'm getting worried. Is this normal? If not how do I fix this?
Not sure if this matters or not, but my phone is currently not activated on any sprint phone #. I'm getting ready to sell it.
Noob/Rookie/Retard mistake
I was pressing volume down and power to go into recovery.

My samsung epic 4g touch has a softbrick issues after starting an over the air update Samsung Epic 4G Touch Software Update - S710.10S.FH13 (MR 4) on august 24th. The message that shows up on the screen after the firmware failure is "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in kies & try again." Everytime the phone boots up it goes directly to the same firmware error message. I have tried to use Odin 1.85 to reflash back to Gingerbread 2.3.6, but Odin would freeze at the installation of modem.bin. Now the kicker is that my phone has 1 hairline crack, which voids the warranty on the phone and they refuse to look at my phone at all. If anyone have a website or retail service that can fix this issue please let me know. I would like to say thanks in advance to any advice or guidance you can give me in order to fix my phone.

I just received a notification that an ota is available. (FH13). I am running blue kuban w/fh13 modem. If I keep clicking "install later" at the prompt will that keep from installing the ota? If I reboot at some point will the update install automatically? Don't want it at this point in time.

Came home last night and the wifes phone is stuck at the Odin Mode screen. Try to power it off and on, remove battery, nothing works. It will only go back to the odin screen.
I don't know what happened, but I can't get the phone to do anything.

Can you push anything by Odin? Might want to try a full package and see what happens.
Also, what happens if you hold power + vol. up for 30 seconds?

Took out the battery for a while and was going to Odin it at work. Got to work it booted up fine. Charged it up to 80% and everything looked fine and it was showing it was on FF22 (I think thats what it said)
Started playing with it, seems the home button keeps thinking it is being pressed and held down. Tried to reboot, it came back up with 2% battery.
Something is very wrong...
Hey there guys- pretty sure this isn't already posted, but apologies if it is.
Anyway, I bought a used NoteII recently, and there seems to be some weird stuff going on. I recently tried accessing download mode, but each time I do I get kicked into the stock recovery. (There's a little android on it's back with a red triangle with an exclamation mark on it if that helps)
I've also tried using Kies to restore, but after using Firmware Upgrade and Initialization, it says that my device doesn't support that.
Any help is appreciated!

Nope. Nothing. Still get the Stock Recovery menu.
All I want to do it revert back to stock.
From the stock recovery menu, I can apply an update.zip; could I just flash a stock zip?
If you have an external sd card, yes.

You might also try the tool found in this thread. It will get you back to stock and can help you move ahead with rooting etc when you decide to again.
