I was able to download the 178MB update. Then instructed to restart, which works just fine. At the 27% completion, the update says "failed" and then the device restarts.
The device was once modded but I reverted back to stock. It is not rooted. Although, I just realized the "Device status" still says modified.
Anyone else experiencing something similiar?

Do you have the stock recovery installed?

Factory Reset to make you status normal. You could also plug into kies and back uo and reinstall stock firmware

Wouldn't I lose my apps and data by factory resetting?

There's a thread on this already...
Please read & search.
BTW, have you tried/attempted to install Google wallet or modify any of the contents in the device?

boot into stock recovery / factory reset ( you will loose your data setup )
You don't need to do any boot into recovery stuff. I get this message every now and again (bone stock). Just reboot your phone and it's gone for a while.
Apparently Samsung is hyper-sensitive about their file system and if the root checker gets even slightly tripped, you get this message. Just do a simple reboot and it fixes it.
Did you disable any default apps ?
It happened with me too and was fixed by resetting to factory defaults which was annoying.
Also memory cards are suspected to change device status, check this thread.

With latest update from T-mobile? Any specific steps needs to be taken?

I did. Just installed the app. Clicked the button in the app, did the ota update, went back into the app, clicked restore root, rebooted the phone et voila.

DID the ota update? How did you do this since the system becomes modified and therefore will no longer check for a system update??????

Worked for me. I kept it from going modified between updates. Strangely enough it went modified the reboot prior to the ota.
I just went into supersu and had it forget all the root assignments then rebooted twice to clear the modified status back to normal.
OTA Rootkeeper saved supersu. Ota went without a hitch. Restored supersu with rootkeeper and the living is easy.
YMMV
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
It didn't work for me after updated with Kies, but Imanaged to regain root with CF auto root.
Ok. Tried myself. OTA successful, baseband upgraded and looks like root preserved. Device status after ota uptate shows modified.

Even though the update is quick I think you may need at least 50% battery etc, did you try Settings->About device->Software update plugged in?
Hello all I'm having a weird issue that I am Not sure if its normal or not. I am currently un rooted un modified haven't done anything to the phone since out of the box it is fully stock. I boot into recovery and it says no command then says error then the options popup. When I click the option to clear cache it just says error and reboots without accomplishing the task. Although when I hit factory reset it works. Is this normal behavior? This is my second s4 and I recall being able to do this with no problems on my other device. But I'm not sure why it's giving me error in stock recovery just from trying to wipe cache.. Anybody can confirm this being normal?

I never had any problem like that with stock recovery. Have you updated to the MDL firmware?
Yea I'm on the latest stock firmware..all official no root nothing. Hasn't been touched. I got the phone like this. Factory resets work fine.. Its just clearing the cache says error and causes reboot

My phone runs bad ass.. No hiccups just that recovery error..strange. Not sure what I should do about it

I was rooted stock but went back to unrooted to take updates. I find I don't need to be rooted with this phone.
My problem starts after the Samsung update downloads and i click install..halfway through reboot, I get the green android with the red exclamation point...then it just restarts and I have MA7 still.
I've also tried booting into stock recovery and applying the update through cache. I then get the error in stock recovery after it's "verifying current system." It says "assert failed" and in red "E:Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip (status 7)"
I reboot and it's still back to MA7.
I'm lost on this one. I would really appreciate any help.
No help? I figured this would be easy for someone

Why not just oneclick back to an unrooted build. Then if its ma7, update or if its mc2 then you are good to go. Sounds like somethimg was left behind causing problems. I know you unrooted but before you unrooted did you remove any system apps? That could pose a problem.

I wiped and used odin to get back to stock. I followed directions. So all system apps would be there now, right?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
Correct. Now just wait for the update. And do it.
