Manually pulling the ics update - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I followed the link from the xda forum followed all instructions and went to install, but it failed. Says that it can't verify signature, any ideas?

Can you be more specific please? Like what xda post you followed, your curent rom and your kernel/recovery/?

Either you modifed or deleted a file from the rom or your downloaded ota update.zip is corrupted.

Not sure what the problem is, I downloaded the file from a direct link to Google servers. I didn't modify the package at all. Oh well, the ota can't be far off. Thanks guys!

If you're not specifically wanting the OTA process but want the official ICS then you can use sfhub's FF18 one click and get it without waiting for OTA.

Awesome, that's the road I'm gonna take I think. Don't know why the one click option never occurred to me lol.

No worries. I'm just giving you a hard time.
Like someone mentioned above, just use ODIN to flash a stock rooted ROM and all will be right in the world again.
Do you know exactly how?

Yes, but nandroid first just in case.
Use the link in my sig for the firmware thread.
Download the UVDLJA firmware, root66 version if you want to be rooted, and flash via Odin.
Thats it!
Sometimes itll hang at boot forcing a factory reset, so nandroid first.

Update.zip won't be out until OTA starts which will probably be Monday.
However... let me pull an older version .ZIP and see if I can make one for ya.
(Can probably even throw in my root package if do it this way.)
Will also need to remove 2 images so it doesn't toast your existing data.

Most likely just dump /system and /boot and make a nodata flashable zip. Kind of a workaround OTA that will flash in custom recoveries on rooted roms

Hi. I just rooted my phone on FI27. Will I get notification to update to FL24 OTA? If so, is it safe to do the update or do I have to unroot first before updating?

it can be found over on the FL24 thread at sxtp in the 2nd post - http://www.sxtpdevelopers.com/showthread.php?t=113

Usually the update will wipe the root. So if you accept the ota yiu will be FL24 unrooted. Then you can reapply root.

If I can remember correctly, which it's been what seems like forever, there are two fixes to try (there may be other fixes):
1. Clear cache in recovery and restart and try
2. Attempt to check via Kies.

grab the rooted JB ROM for Odin, install virtualbox and windows xp Virtual machine and re-root. There may be an easier way, but this one works for sure.
