You received a glide with ICS/JB already on it?
Any chance the su you have is for GB, and doesn't work on ICS/JB?
If you didn't get it with ICS./JB already on it / stock, I don't understand why you would have put an unrooted ROM on it?

i had 2.3.5 on it . but phone was unstable restart it self... so i downloaded 4.0.4 rom from here
http://www.androidauthority.com/captivate-glide-sgh-i927-att-android-4-0-4-ics-uclg9-leak-110365/
now can't root it. but keyboard backlight is not working 2.is there any link for rooted 4.0.4 ??? with working keyboard backlight?

Got an OTA upgrade notification - but it wont install.

I have an Orange Desire
I installed Modaco's R8 rom a while back - running no problem.
Today I had an OTA notification from HTC ( not Orange ) about an update. Size was around 25mb. I downloaded it OK, but when it tries to install I get a triangle with an exclamation mark in it next to an Android figure.
I also get the message:
E: Failed to verify whole-file signature
E: Signature verification failed
So my questions are:
1) Why can't I install it.
2) Is there a way to install it?
3) Am I missing much if I don't install it.
Thanks all
No one knows?

if your rooted you cant install any ota update
with a custom recovery you cannot use OTA updates,
u need to download and install it threw recovery.
The new OTA just gives u a new radio, mine .. u can download it and flash threw recovery, did not notice anything else...
Custom recover images do not accept ota updates. You can get the update as a repackaged zip though, usually, which will work on your custom recovery.

Update problem

I've got a little problem with update from HTC. I've downloaded update package and said to install it. Phone reboots to CWM and shows:
"E: failed to verify whole-file signature
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted"
What should I do to install this update?

now that is a problem,
You can't update an OTA with CWM.
If I'm correct you want to go back to stock. If yes than follow these instructions (or if you have nandroid, backup at cwm)

eee... I only have unlocked bootloader and root, no custom ROMs

but you have cwm, which is not the stock recovery, so OTA will not update. But if you are on stock, you need just to fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img from the same post. You will not be able to update from that zip, but RUU will update your device. use OTA rootkeeper to maintain root after ota.
---------------------------
Just to be 100% clear:
OTA updates are only installable by your device, if You have the stock recovery. CWM or touch recovery is not the stock version, so the phone cannot write partitions that is must, and stock recoveries often uses non-edified file verification, so the non-stock recoveries will see them as defected.
So if You want to update by that zip you just need to do the following:
fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img
fastboot oem lock (not sure if it is necessery, but it works for sure)
If you don't want to reroot your device after OTA, download OTA rootkeeper (voodoo) from market, and push protect root BEFORE update.
so you have the stock recovery, the zip which contains the OTA upgrade will install.

[Q] Trouble with updating OTA to JB

I'm currently using the stock rom from Google (4.0.4) after updating it from 4.0.1 which originally shipped with my device (manually, not OTA). Just yesterday I decided to update my phone to JB through the OTA update. It downloads perfectly fine but when it reboots into the installation, I get the error with the android mascot and red exclamation mark.
-- Install /cache ...

I'm pretty sure it manages to download perfectly fine since the file is still in my cache (filename is f946a4120eb1.signed-yakju-JR003C-from-IMM761.f946a412.zip) Anyone able to help me with this?

You do not have the XXLA2 radio flashed. You need to flash that before applying the update.
Thanks for that. I've also got another question. I currently can't access clockwork mod through the recovery menu, after updating it to 4.0.4 I wasn't able to access it anymore. I've tried the rom manager from the play store but it says something that I don't have permission. I think I forgot to install the super user when I initially installed the update to 4.0.4.
I agree, you have to be careful with each rom's compatibility. 4.0.4 brought with it new radios which I believe most if not all jb roms are based on. You can flash the new radios after rooting and unlocking the device. If you manually root the phone, you'll know if you successfully pushed su to your sd card.

1) every ota update disables root access.
2) every ota update places two files on your device that re-flash the stock recovery every time you boot your phone.
3) the android laying on its back with the exclamation point IS the stock recovery.
4) you need to flash cwm, flash the su package, then rename/delete this file: /system/etc/install-recovery.sh and you are all set.

Because you are using an ls980 with gsm unlocked. There are files changed. Which means your device was rooted and the file changed. You can root change files and unroot via super su. Just telling it to unroot.
