Dear all,
i'm just new and noob in android im an iphone and blackberry user... yesterday i received a notification to update my nexus to 4.2.2 i tapped on it but after some a screen comes up saying install from untrusted zip file yes or no i tapped yes but after that it says this cannot be done... i tried to update it manually but couldnt find a use ful link ... if u guys can help me in this my phone is rooted btw.
I'll just leave this here.
I'm assuming you have a custom recovery, which is why it failed, you must be all stock for the OTA to work.

My T-Mobile Galaxy Note 2 was rooted by Odin, so the system said that the device has been modified, software updates are not available when I checked for the Software updates (for the new released multi-window feature,cool). The device is still with its stock rom but only rooted.
Is there anyway to get the device updated ? Thanks
Screen shots are attached:
I hooked up the phone to PC and updated via Kies. Works okay but I lost root, and device now says normal. There's prolly some way to keep root, but overall no big deal to me..

yeah, I tried Kies,but it failed,leaving me a screen saying that the update has encountered an issue and suggesting me to try rebuild the connection again, but actually the computer didn't recognize the device anymore. It ends up refleshing a stock rom using Odin. But the apps and data was still there and I got a OTA update...of course, the root was gone anyway ,thanks a lot.
Use triangle away, the the unroot option in superuser. Viola ! stock device ready for updates !

5) I've made the download of the MIUI zip file from en. miui. com /download-35. html
6) I've installed MIUI using ROM Manager free downloaded from PlayStore
7) I didn't like MIUI.
8) I've tried to come back to original Android downloading the "original" firmware of my phone from SamMobile website
9) I've downloaded the only ROM for GT-N7100 wich didnt have a carrier in it's description
10) I've used Odin to install the "original" Android ROM downloaded from SamMobile
11) The installation from Odin was succeded but my phone never starts!! It keep looping between the Samsung logo and the description of the model of the phone in the screen (it never starts!!)

wow...I am a newbie, man. SOrry!!! How do I boot into the stock recovery
I've tried to install back MIUI or even the original android version (both in a zip file) from the SD card inside the phone after I hold VOLUME UP + HOME BUTTON + POWER (then I a choose "update from SD card").. Is that stock recovery?? If "yes", when I tried to make the installation thru this way, my phone replied the following error message "E: signature verification failed".
Don't install yet. Clear everything first then boot. If all goes well go ahead with the update.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Samsung Help Center...
If you are ready to spend $10/- , why dont you go to Samsung help centre ??!!
Resolved
Hello everybody! I've resolved this all by myself.
Using Odin, I installed to my phone a non-official Android Jelly Bean OS (catched on the MIUI official website offered as a "backup"). After that I could install the original Android version for my phone with no problems at all.
My phone's working perfect right now.
Special thank's to betoishly and masterprotocol0097!!!

Hi,
You may want to try updating with ODIN or Kies instead of OTA.
Honestly, I never update my device via OTA. It's slower and full of bugs.
ODIN is FASTER with least bugs.
Good luck.

It probably didn't download correctly or you don't have enough memory for the installation process maybe. Best way is to go with Odin to make sure everything gets installed right
hello
Try downloading it from sammobile and flashing through Odin also don't want to be rude but u should put this in the q & a so no one gets angry at u
alright

Awhile back i rooted my s4 mini on sprint Via, towelroot i believe, today i decided i wanted to start using it again and update it to kitkat. Im also on a mac computer and dont have access to a PC. I did a complete restore and to no avail it still says that it is modified and that i cant install update it says something along the lines of "cant install update on modified phone" what do i do?
