So I've never been able to receive OTA updates on my nexus devices. I got a new gnex a few weeks ago and stayed in its shipped 4.0.2 for over a week and eventually just manually flashed 4.0.4 cause it wouldn't get the OTA. I'm running a pre released 4.1, should I downgrade to 4.0.4 and go for the OTA or just wait for the stock images to flash?

theres an OTA zip from 4.1 release preview to 4.1.1. read the main OTA thread the links are there. and you could have just posted this in that thread too instead of making a new thread.
Either or. If you're on takju 4.1 you should get the 4.1.1 OTA soon enough... there's a .zip available to flash if you're handy with booting into a temporary CWM recovery.

If you're fully stock JRN84D (with the proper radio and recovery) on a GSM device, you will receive the OTA. It was the first OTA to be announced to start rolling out.

Just got a notification on my S3 about a system update being available. Doesn't give much detail other than that. Is this the 4.0.4 update that some uses have received? Anyone else get this message today?
I got it this morning as well. Anyone know what it's for?

What software version are you running now? LG1 is the remove search update. If your running lg1 and have an update, then it's new.

I747ucalem is my version.
Doesn't matter though because I have CWM installed so the update fails.

You need to be on stock to update stock firmware, unless you install root keeper first
Hi Everyone!
So my question today is pretty simple, when JB is out for my SGH-I747m, and I update it OTA, will it remove the root I have installed (superuser), and or brick my phone because I have CWM recovery and BusyBox installed?
Thanks!
Michael
Most likely it wont install if you are not completely stock

It will not update unless you remove root(OTA Rootkeeper) and if you froze or removed the bloatware it may not work as well. It sounds like with the update that just came through this week it has to be pretty close to stock, with stock recovery to work OTA. Im sure there will be ways to flash it once these guys get ahold of the official files with CWM or Odin.

I got the app and it seems very interesting! Can't wait for an update to test it out!
Hopefully JB will come quick through the Carrier in October to our devices!!!

Wondering if there is a pre-rooted stock OTA image of the latest official sprint update?
I rooted prior to the official Jellybean update and am running the CM10 nightlies (working just fine btw). However in the past with other phones I have rooted, a rom would come out a week or two later with a stock build of the latest release - in case you had to go into a sprint store etc.
Now, I have a recovery of the pre JB image - but wanted to see how stock sprint ran.
Am I missing it? My guess is I probably am but I searched the forum and also clockwork mod downloadables and don't see a thing.
Any help would be greatly apprectiated.

Flash the stock image, take the OTA (or manually apply it if its being slow), then root. Rooting takes 2sec, just do it yourself.

+1 This.
I could make you a pre-rooted OTA, but it is more work to do that than to just flash the original OTA and flash the root zip after, so there is no real point.
Hey XDA!
As most of us know, Wind released Jelly Bean OTA last night.
I'm having trouble updating my IC (Rooted stock firmware) -> Jelly Bean (Rooted stock firmware)
This is what happens:
My S3 downloads the software update. - Completed.
*Reboots
Starts installing. Until it Fails and shows..
---
CWM- Based Recovery V5.5.0.4
E: Invalid command argument
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E: failed to verify whole-file signature
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
---
Then i choose the option 'reboot system now'
I'm back to my IC- Stock Rooted (Old software)
Anyone know how I can fix this?
Greatly Appreciated!
If I'm not mistaken you have to un root(voodoo) and use stock recover to do OTA. Or just dl the pre-rooted OTA and Odin.

The 'pre-rooted OTA and Odin' options sounds easy.
Where can i get the pre-rooted OTA file?

Hey psykhotic
I believe your referring to this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1949687
If you scroll down to the bottom of the first post. You will see 'wind' which is what I'm looking for. All of them are for the IC software. But none for jelly bean.
Am I mistaken somewhere?

Odin to the stock ICS wind and then run the update.. Must be non rooted stock to complete the update.. Get it?

I just had the same error trying to apply the update with CWM.
What worked flawlessly for me was to simply push the root66 pre-rooted update with ODIN, right on top of the old rooted stock ICS.

Yes that will work aswell. But all my settings and +2000 pictures will be removed etc.
From what I understand. I need to remove CWM and it should be able to update like normal. Once it's gone, I can update like you suggested, but will still have everything on my phone. I may loose the root, but apparently it's easy to get back.
Your thoughts?

Hey Kalm,
I see what you mean. And the root66 JB is released for the t999 version of the sammy s3.
Mine is the T999V. And build is VLALH2.
Would there be an issue with that?
*sorry for the delay in response. My account has a 5min delay due to being a relatively 'new user'
Guys this is usually the difference about upgrading using stock firmware between OTA and desktop Odin.
Stock rooted with CWM + OTA jellybean = fail
Stock rooted with stock recovery + OTA jellybean = success but loose root
Stock rooted with CWM + Odin stock jellybean = success but loose root and CWM
Stock rooted with stock recovery + Odin stock jellybean = success but loose root.

I was on stock rooted with CWM and did the Odin root66 'stock rooted' JB push. Had to re-Odin CWM, but that was it. No complications.

That's correct, if you Odin the root66 you will keep root and will loose only CWM (that can be reinstalled again). My T999V was rooted with superuser and when I Odin root66 jellybean it added superSU (Wich comes with root66), therefore I ended up with both, not a big deal to solve but something to keep in mind.

Glad it worked for you!
Which network did stock root JB with? And was that the same network provider that your with?

I am on T-Mobile here in the states, I believe the .tar file was created for Tmo specifically - if that's what you're asking?

Oh I see. I assume you used ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1949687 ) the T-mobile UVDLJA. As Jelly Bean is only released for that model.
I was asking to figure out if you were on another network, and used a t-mobile software version on your phone to pull off Jelly Bean. Or even if that possible.
What you did, is ideally what i want to do. But Im on the Wind network and that link doesn't show a release for JB anywhere for that provider. Does that mean I'm out of luck?
Side note:
I keep getting a popup to software update to Jelly Bean. Which i naively try once a while and keeps failing.
Does anyone know how to stop this notification from showing up. Just need to remove it temporarily until the main issue of upgrading gets solved

It looks like he has some updates for Wind on that page as well, but I'm not sure if they're JB or not...or rooted for that matter. I'm sure it is possible to use the Tmo file to upgrade and modify something to let the phone still work on Wind's network though.
