Interesting problem - phone continues to say "Software Update Interrupted". Even after manually updating to Android 4.1.2
AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 2
Samsung-sgh-I317
I encounter no problems with my phone, but this phone puzzles me.
Friend tried to update phone - said gave me an error. Phone is not rooted, stock ROM. There was an attempt to unlock the SIM using keypad *#..... I do not know if there were any problems.
I tried
1. Setting date ahead 2 days, 2 months ....
Result: A check for software update returned "Software Update Interrupted"
2. Tried to reflash ROM using Odin to stock
Result: Failed, tried several times - lost connection - tried different USB cable failed
3. Reset phone to factory defalts "
Result: A check for software update returned " Software Update Interrupted"
Update successful by
Manual update: downloaded update.zip to microSD card. Installed update Reboot into recovery (turn phone off, press volume up, center button and power) Install update from external sdcard
Result: Phone is now running 4.1.2 with Mult Window !!!
BUT
A check for Software update results in "Software Update Interrupted"
Should say "Current software is up to date"
Is there some switch that needs to reset?
Is ATT blocking the phone by IMEI?
What is checked when software update is run?
Phone works fine - person does not want to have ATT replace phone with a refurb under the warranty.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Im having this same exact issue.. Had my note 2 for about a month now..When i first got it had no problem with getting OTA update to 4.1.2 but had flash back to stock firmware 4.1.1 via sammymobile because that is latest version they have listed and now me too had to do manual update rom zip via sd card.. Keep getting the software update interrupted.. I just wonder if there update "servers" are having issues? As i say two weeks ago had no issues..
screw it..flash a "custom" stock rom....cleanrom will work fine for you
Or just turn off the updates via tibu or app manager.
You need to turn off:
Att update and FWupdate .
But yeah otas
flash a custom rom and youll forget all about ota.

Want OTA to work again
Custom ROMs are not really a good option. This person still remembers the update to their MPX220, and the Chinese Character set. Simple fix to change the language, but huge impact.
I would really like to get the OTA updates working again, so I can say update your own phone.
----
The OTA update servers are working fine. Works on other notes on same network.
I would really like to know what the OTA update servers are checking for and why they are blocking the update.
Thanks.
I love my "note 2"

yeah, that comment will go over like a fart in church around here. You're comparing some c r a p from ten friggen years ago. You might want to do a little more reading
Have you done a factory reset of the device since the update?
use the stock recovery and reset it. .
The firmware update to UCAMA4 may have corrupted your data.
And does the device show "normal" status. .??
If yes. ..the data wipe should help. ...and wipe cache also. ..g

Can you please give me the link to that download because I tried doing what you said as in going into recovery and flashing a zip update I got from sammobile.com and it didn't work. My Note 2 is stuck on 4.1.1 and gives me that Software Update Interrupted stuff.

I'm not sure what kind of update from Sam mobile is flashed through recovery.
Down load via odin is another matter.
There are update options available for mh3 in the dev section

Sorry do not have the link anymore, it was to an old ROM March/April 2013. I found it on a forum on how to manually push the update via google.
The next update, the girl took it back to AT&T for a replacement.
New phone updates fine.
The FIX - replace the phone sad, since it probably was a software setting.

Get your SD card out of phone before trying to update
last time when i tried i had it out of my phone. but didn't work... btw does it have anything to do with the flight mode? i had it on flight mode last time because the instruction says that i cant answer calls. so i did that so that calls doesn't come at the time of updating.
i am stuck. after it has finished downloading stuff a dialogue box appeared saying kies firmware update has stopped working. i had two options one saying stop firmware upgrade and the other saying check online for solution. i went with the second option and the box disappeared. than there was another box titled "prepare for firmware upgrade"... it is saying "preparing firmware upgrade components". it has been more than half an hour but it hasn't been able to finish preparing. what should i do now???
About the firmware upgrading and sdcard problems, I've followed the two suggestions from here and the suggestion to modify cache size from here using SD-Booster (I set it to 2048, not to 2024) and everything is working ok. No more "SD Removed Unexpectedly"
Btw, uninstall and install Kies again to get rid of the error message. Don't forget that it's crucial to remove sdcard before upgrading firmware with Kies.
try to update using odin or you can update using OTA.
sorry for my bad english

I also get the same problem...Can't update through kies or my phone's software update option....
Then i rooted my Galaxy y...now i can download updates though my phone's software update option...it's easy....
So root ur phone first then try to update.....
Here is the Rooting Guide ->

I used to get the same error when I was on 2.3.6 KK1
After I upgraded to KL1, my problem was fixed.
Firstly, my problem is not simply updating, so it is a request to moderators for not locking this thread.
Now, here is the problem. I started upgrading my Wave II via Kies. It downloaded and said it was updating. But then it gave me a prompt saying that it will put me on a temporary firmware for backing up my data. So, technically this is the point that I am stuck on.
I mean, what do I do to go ahead of this.
I tried "Firmware Initialization" in the Tools. It says "GT-S8530" does not support Firmware initialization.
So what after this? When I open up my phone, it must be connected to the PC running Kies, and it always runs on Airplane mode. So it looks like it is meant only for backing up the data. So what do I do?
Either I want to upgrade to 2.0 or revert to the stock 1.2 just to fix this problem.
And also, I won't prefer unofficial method. As I have been having a few problems with my phone like Hanging. So if the problem does not get fixed with update, I may have to take it to a service center.
You can flash the rom you want thanks to multiloader.
I'll give you all the info I can as this has all happened since last night.
Yesterday I was bored, and decided to Root my SGH-I747M [Virgin Mobile, runs off Bell I believe] I used to jailbreak my apple products all this time, my S3 is getting old so I figured heck why not. I was curious about all the Kit Kat hubbub lol.
I Rooted it successfully, then installed the CyanogenMod 4.4 Nightly Custom Rom onto my phone.
That was also successful minus two things that happened, I don't like some of the features & I lost cell service [NOT due to and EFS/IMEI issues]
Decided to downgrade and unroot as the only reason for rooting was to install Kit Kat.
Unfortunately trying to Unroot something went wrong, after pushing start in Odin and my phone froze in Download Mode and Odin failed.
After rebooting my phone I got the typical "Firmware upgrade encountered a problem" so I hooked up to Kies, entered my phone model and s/n and did a full Firmware recovery.
Still had no cell service, could make calls but no SMS.
Found a post that said to take out battery, take out SIM card, boot, then take battery out, replace SIM and reboot.
I believe I have full service back with no issues.
But after the Kies recovery, I have this constant screen on my phone as picutred in the attachment!
I can use my phone, I can touch anything/everything it doesn't block anything thats behind it, but that screen stays. It goes away if I need to go into settings but it comes back shortly. My phone is also still set as "custom" in the info so I'm assuming it's still Rooted???
Update: A friend of mine suggest doing another Kies recovery. So I'm waiting for that now.
And I'm not sure if it's still rooted, Went to settings>More>About Device>Status> And Device Status reads Official.
Alrighty another update incase anyone reads this and can either help or point me to help lol, I am searching forums/google like crazy trying everything.... I figured out that the screenshot is showing me factory mode is on.
Turned it off, after re-rooting and installing SU/Root Explorer.
So factory mode is off, now my only problem is Mobile Network: Disconnected despite Service State: In Service and all the other stats seemingly normal?
It seems I can make calls, but I can not use data or send sms/mms.

You could try a factory reset and see if it pops back up. Im not sure if its tmobile or lg but I hate the update system they have. Sometimes you see it sometimes it takes a month after release.
If I do a factory reset she will loose all her stuff. So she said no to a factory reset

I had the same situation with my LG3.I talked to tech support and because of the bugs with Lollipop and LG phones ,they have taken down the update till they fix the problems
Thanks!
There are other ways to update. Search through the forums and you will find a plethora of info on how to do it. Also check the support site on tmobile, it gives you info on how to update the phone via a computer.
I received the A505FDDS5BTG5 update 2 days ago. After updating the phone, there are continuous Error 0x2 messages popping up on the screen. What I noticed is these messages only come up when 2 sim cards are inserted in the phone. I have tried:
1. Factory reset
2. De-bloatting the phone (https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-a50/how-to/heavy-debloat-ui-lag-ota-t3929189)
3. Flashing the latest as well as the June update on ODIN
4. Installing a custom rom
However, nothing seems to work and I keep getting those messages.
Would appreciate if anyone has any idea how to solve this.

Tried the June and August firmware updates through ODIN. Surprisingly, there is no issue if only 1 sim card is inserted in the phone.
