Are you completely stock, unrooted, stock recovery? If so you may have a bad download and try over WiFi.

Had same problem. Nuked that file in /cache/ It's all good now.
@BluesRulez: I've been rooted for a long time now. My Wi-Fi stays on so I'm not exactly sure how to trigger the download manually.
@Snegtul: So you just deleted the file and let it redownload, and now it works fine? How exactly do I trigger the update manually?

I've been getting notified of the update repeatedly, I've already deleted the update in the cache folder I just need the update to redownload.
Can someone help me out here and explain your answer, I'm not going to brick my phone.
It wont download with your phone rooted. Only way to get rid of it is to do what everyone else has said, If you dont want to do what they suggest you can either deal with the messages or unroot your phone and update it. Sorry if this isnt what you are looking for, but their are no other solutions

I didn't understand that it wouldn't update with the phone being rooted. Now that makes sense. Although it will download it will just error out if your phone is already rooted right?
Then after updating is it possible to reroot the phone again or is this latest update to keep users unrooted to begin with?
So only modification to your phone is root? Deleting sprint apks will not allow you to do an OTA update.
Have you gone into the cache partition using a root file explorer and deleted the update.zip file?
If yes to above 2 answers,
Right after deleting the file, reboot the phone and turn on wifi.
Go to settings, system updates and check for firmware update.
It should show downloading update...
Let it download and then install. Make sure phone is charged.
If this doesn't work, you will have to UNROOT using a FI27 one click that preserves your user data. Once you are unrooted, try OTA update again.
I do have a question, Why do you want OTA update if you are going to be rooted? Installing OTA update will unroot.
As far as I know yes the only change is the phone is rooted and I have gone into the cache folder and deleted the update.zip. I have already rebooted the phone and tried checking for software updates, but I'm always told that I have the latest version, kernel 3.0.15-1127689.
I remember having an OTA update before and it working just fine, it was a long time ago so maybe I'm wrong?
I only want the OTA update to get the latest version. I'd prefer Jelly Bean, but I think that isn't even available for Epic4GTouch or ever will be. So if unrooting to get the update and then being stuck unrooted, and the latest update really doesn't fix/add anything then I may as well just leave it as is.

If your phone is completely stock then you need a custom recovery to flash a ROM
Edit: nvm I just read more closely, you might just be getting a bad download..try it on wifi. But if you wamt to root you would need/want a custom recov.

Something has changed on your system from stock. Did you remove any stock apps like asphalt?
Have you installed clockwormod? That will stop the update from verifying, too. However, you can use clockworkmod to flash this modified update.

Check your phone info and see if your baseband version ends in DI18 as well as the build number.
I had a problem where the baseband stayed DK28. I had to Odin back with the stock tar file in order to return completely to stock. This also installed all bloatware I had removed.
After that, the upgrade was seemless.
Use Odin. Easiest way to upgrade

Is anyone interested in testing a simple cwm update.zip that will disable the FF18 OTA update so it stops bugging you?
I tested the install under EL29+CWM-Rogue but it should work for other CWM variants.
It will theoretically disable your phone from thinking it needs to download the current OTA updates (including EK02, EL29, and FF18)
My phone hasn't been selected for FF18 so I haven't been able to confirm it'll skip that one, but it should.
http://little-melon.com/sfhub/update-disable-ota.zip
There are actually 2 processes going on with the OTA update.
The first process checks with the Google servers to figure out if your phone should download an OTA update.
The second process takes over once an OTA download is complete and starts bugging you all the time.
This will bypass the first process, but if you already have the OTA update downloaded and your phone is bugging you, this won't disable that. To get rid of that either remove the OTA update from you /cache directory and choose to install or press "More Info", then pull your battery. Normally that'll get rid of the OTA update for a few days, but if you run the update.zip above, it should not come back at all (until the next OTA update)

Well ideally, you've already been selected to download the FF18 OTA update.
You'd just place the update.zip on your internal or external SD, boot into CWM recovery (or Rogue CWM), select install zip, choose the file, and confirm.
After you reboot, you should have a /system/build.prop and a /system/build.prop-backup
Assuming you do, the update did its thing.
Your phone should then not download the FF18 update. If you didn't have the change (and were selected for the FF18 update) within a few days of canceling the update, it would download again (slowing down your internet and eating your battery) then incessantly bug you about the update, and I think eventually automatically installing it.
If you were selected for the FF18 OTA update, installed this update.zip, and didn't see the FF18 update prompt for a week, then that confirms you won't be seeing the update again (until the next OTA update)

Yes, the process that checks for updates should tell the google servers you are on FF18 and the servers will tell your phone there is nothing newer.
Is there a way to do this with stock EL29 plus root. I am not running CWM recovery or anything, just stock el29 + root.
I do not want the OTA ICS update.

After it was tested a little I was going to add it to auto root. There is a shell script included in the update.zip which you can run from adb shell
su
/system/bin/sh disable-ota-update.sh
You could also just use Auto Root to install CWM, run the update.zip, then use Auto Root to install stock EL29 kernel back.
I have been selected after going back to el29. I definitely want to try this later however I am being nagged to do the install. So I guess I need to find this file in the cache and remove it.

Place the update.zip on your sdcard, then when it is nagging you, click on More Info, then pull your battery. Then boot to recovery and apply the update.zip.
It should no longer try and download the update and thus with nothing downloaded, won't nag you again.
Works great. I also went into settings and tried to manually check for Android updates, it states that I already have latest version. Thanks!!
Edit: A few reboots and all is good.
Before I nandroided back I tried it out just to see what would happen, everything worked as expected. However, the downloaded OTA file was removed/deleted after applying the patch. And the nag screen was gone. Placebo perhaps?

Once it installs, it will remove the update from cache. That is expected behavior.
If it didn't install right, some time in the future (usually a few days) it'll try again, contacting the Google server and asking if there is a newer update than your current.
Now with the update.zip you just ran above, when it checks for something newer, it will be asking, is there something newer than FF18, to which the Google server will say no, nothing newer, so your phone won't download the update again and nag you, like it would if you didn't run the update.zip above.
Thanks again, sounds like you have it completely automated. Great work! I will keep this a day or two and then move to ics for a bit to test. I really don't expect any issues, but will let you know if I ran across anything.

Don't know what superfreeze does. This just tells google that you are already on FF18 even if you are not. Nothing is being frozen.

Check /data/fota or /cache/fota for the downloaded update. If its not herer in settings> about, press Software Update to try to redownload. Copy it to your external sd.
Ive been told cwm touch will flash the ota for you without stock recovery. Never tried it though. I use Mobile Odin Pro. Or you can flash in stock recovery.
You can get voodoo ota rootkeeper on market and protect root before updating. After the update reboot and restore root through the app and you should be good to go.
You wont lose your data but ymmv witb voodoo.
If you want to do a fresh install and start clean you ca download the full fw from sammobile.com/firmware . Use odin or Mobile Odin for this method. Hope that helps!

I appreciate the effort, I didn't find the downloaded update anywhere, but using KIES when I got home worked and re-rooting was no issue.
My kies doesn't even "support" upgrade on my phone...
Do you have anything modded on your phone? Even just small build.prop mods could cause incompatibilities. Honestly just guessing here cause I dont ever use kies. Luckily anything ive wanted to flash was available other ways.
@all
If anyone gets the ota update notification on your phone and is willing to do a little extra footwork to help others out, consider doing this please...
Before starting the update, make a copy the ota file. I think its either at /data/fota or /cache/fota, cant remember for sure. But upload it to a file host like dev-host.org or mediafire.com so those who are having problems getting it can have an alternative.

If you want to install it using CWM 5.5.0.4, you will need to turn signature verification off and remove this line from the zip's META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script:
Code:
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "d2can" ||
getprop("ro.build.product") == "d2can");
(It's what I had to do. Unfortunately I've been unable to get CWM to reinstall since then, so no root for me until I can figure out why it's doing that.)
Did you try to use voodoo to protect root before installing the OTA? That way you get root back after the update then flash recovery using the gomanager

Interesting. I am having similar problems with rooting the jellybean OTA leak for VTR. When I flash the LH2 update, the jellybean leak would flash successfully right after provided I don't flash a new recovery.
The moment I flash a custom recovery and root then protect root and then try to flash the jellybean update, it fails almost immediately during the check process.
Is there any way to disable the OTA from checking and just installing right away?
You can flash OTA updates through CWM 6.6.1.2, but I don't think you can use the OTA updater from About phone if you are using a custom recovery. I will verify this method when the official JB update rolls out. Why don't you just download the OTA zips from sammobile?

Ah ha! Turning off "Auto reboot" in Odin and then manually rebooting into recovery mode immediately after flashing CWM allowed me to get a new copy of su installed.
It's back to the stock recovery mode after a reboot, but as getting root re-enabled was my main concern I think I can live with it for the time being.
Someone flashed me to 4.1.1 and told me not to do the OTA update when I get it and I am unsure his reasoning. I have just received the OTA update and am hesitant to do so cause he told me I shouldn't this is my build.

Root doesn't prevent OTA updates from installing. However, installing the update will unroot the phone unless you use something like CWM which can keep root for you.

Yeah it will remove the root but you can re-root it after the update or use supersu pro to conserve root (though not guaranteed).
Have you modified any system apps or files at all? If not i don't see why you won't, just be sure to run Voodoo OTA Keeper before installing the update and restore it after the update. As this update patches the ExynosAbuse exploit
Download OTA root keeper from the play store.

I keep getting a notification about an ATT update and I was wondering if it will affect my rooted phone. I just have a basic 'stock' odin root, not a custom Rom. The update will not let me disable notifications and will only let me delay the reminders 8 hrs........... I am getting tired of seeing the notifications and dont know what it will do if I update. Any advice is appreciated!!!
Thanks

That update (from like 2/18 or something) is a baseband update (to MA4) and didnt mess with root on mine.

I went ahead and accepted the update and it didnt effect my root, but I did get a notification on the 'pull down' screen that the update was unsuccessful.

So you are saying that you were on a rooted stock LK2 ROM, and ran the OTA update successfully without losing root? And this was without using RootKeeper OTA or SuperuserSU set to protect root?

Same here. My phone kept rebooting to TWRP also, which may have something to do with it.

Your phone will not correctly install an OTA update if you have a custom recovery. You will need to find it in the development forums, already rooted, and as a flashable ZIP in custom recovery.
