are you rooted? because if you are, that shouldnt have happened. you cannot get OTA's when you are rooted. unless its to their voicemail application but not to their roms.

Are you using stock recovery for flashing? If I recall with s-off you needed to use a stock recovery to install any sprint updates?

by unrooting
u can go ahead and download the ota. itll either download to /cache or to /sdcard/downloads. if u down load it just dont apply it. once u have it downloaded just delete it from the directory it was in.
If you guys are trying to do an OTA update and it actually lets you, then you will lose ROOT, just so ya know....
You can download it without installing it.
Can someone post the update package to see what files changed?
I had the yakjuxw and flashed it to yakju. I received the past OTA updates just fine, but when I received the message saying there's a new update for my phone, I went ahead and downloaded the 130Mb -140Mb size update and when it asked to restart my phone, it installed maybe a third of the way and the the little android went on his back and "collapsed" and I had to take out the battery to restart my phone. I tried it again and the same thing happened.
What could be wrong? :crying:
Thanks for the help guys.
When you flashed to yakju, did you also flash the proper radio and bootloader?

In order for the OTA to work properly you have to have stock recovery, radio, bootloader, and system files. You can't have modified anything except an unlocked bootloader.

so what you're saying is I have to re flash yakju?
I restore my phone to factory settings first?
I had yakjuxw also, it comes with a different radio. flashing to yakju (or takju) is not enough. you have to flash the radio also. look for efrant's post in how to do it and get it, it's in these forums, that's what I followed.

sorry, just re-read the question, what you describe happened to me when I deleted the recovery folder from the update file. The unmodified file updated fine. But then you have to root and install clockwork recovery again, which is fairly easy too.
Another issue I had prior to that was when I tried to flash the update and I didn't realize that the file didn't finish copying to the phone. check file size it should be around 147mb I think. I hope one of these tips help!

That is because you do not have the XXLA2 radio installed. The last update did NOT update the radio, so it didn't check to see if you had the XXLA2 radio installed and, hence, did not fail.
I had exactly the same problem, however as everyone is saying; Just flash the xxla2 radio again and the problem is solved!

It doesn't. If you've got an unlocked bootloader, just flash the radio via Fastboot.

When I did this, I had to ODIN the stock .tar file back on to fix it. I could still get into download mode, but not CWM

And what do you mean by "Phone will not fully boot after flashing a rom" How far does it go when booting and what happens?
Just boot screen doesn't fully boot

It is worth the trouble if...
A. You know what you are doing.
B. You read and research.
C. You know how to recover in the event something goes wrong.
Flashing isn't for everyone. Even if you follow directions things can still go wrong in rare situations. That's just the nature of flashing.

Where does the img go so that CWM can see it on my phone? Or do I boot into CWM and update it that way?
Did you change the build.prop for the Google Wallet work around? Change it back, everything should work again.

I had this problem last night myself...turns out it was due to the version of CWM recovery I was running, which was v5.4.x.x, IIRC. I used adb to install the latest version of CWM, v.6.0.x.x IIRC and reattempted the flash and it worked fine.
noob question, but since CM10 doesn't have a Rogers version, are you using the AT&T one?
thanks!!
Thanks to everyone who posted about the d2tt.img recovery...it finally soved that problem.
Thank You!

Hi there!
I tried to flash CWM recovery 6.0.4.3 (rom manager) either from the app itself, and with odin. In both cases, the update didn't work. I flash over and over again, but the version stuck at 5.xxxx. Then I tried to flash the TWRP 2.6.3.1, but my phone stuck in a recovery boot loop. Don't worry! I did a nandroid before and been able to flash back my rom. Is anyone has any ideas why I'm not able to flash the update? I'm running dirty unicorn rom, on a samsung sgh-t999v (videotron canada). I try to flash the kitkat update, but I need to do the CWM update first.
Thank you!
