[Q] Latest Update won't install - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
yesterday I received an update Notification on my german Note2 4.1.2 N7100XXDLK7 (rooted)
It said something about security and stability and I think 22 MB
I confirmed and the device showed me a notice, that it will reboot and install the update. But after my O.K. another window popped up, that checked for updates. After that nothing happens and I have to cancel that window after some minutes.
From now on the update notification will frequently pop up, but it will never complete.
I disabled "check for updates" in the settings and rebooted, but it doesn't help.
How can I either complete the update or cancel it for good?
Greez,
Dirk.

Update with Kies or better yet flash the whole rom with Odin from this website www.sammobile.com/firmware.

[Q] Help, continue update is greyed out

Hey folks,
I rooted my GS3 right after I got it and everything has been functioning fine. I actually like the stock ROM so I have stuck with it and just removed the bloat. Recently an OTA update was released and I followed an article on putting my updater back to stock to receive the OTA update. I tried updating but it was unable to complete. Now when I go into software updates there is an option that says "continue update" that is grayed out. Is there a workaround to this or do I need to flash back to stock, receive the new update and reroot? If that's the case a link to a walk through would be appreciated. Thanks
anyone?
I was able to get to 4.1 successfully with kies this morning

LK4 Update Problems

Hey everyone,
So two night ago I received a notification on my GS3 saying a new update was out.
When I tried installing the update it rebooted into recovery and failed at 24%....weird. I was running Rogers stock rom and recovery at the time so this shouldn't have happened, and I would like to know why for future reference.
I also tried updating via samsung kies. But when I tried this, it said my device wasn't compatible to update via kies????
So I ended up download the LK4 update off sammobile website and installed it using odin.
Anyways, I now have the new update installed. I've noticed two weird things:
1. When I go to about phone in settings and go into software update, it shows a screen "checking for software updates..." and doesn't go away unless I press back or home button. Why can't I search for new updates????
2. My google now voice isn't working. It recognizes what I say to it but when it gives the flashcard response, it doesn't talk back like it normally does. I have it set to English US, and yes my media volume is up at full volume.
Anyways I'm a little frustrated at this point. I can't figure out how to fix these problems so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

[Q] Repeat system update notification

I've got an unrooted, completely stock, unlocked Galaxy Nexus. A few weeks ago, I updated it to 4.3 when prompted by the usual notification ("System update downloaded: Touch to install"), and the update went fine.
However, since then I keep getting the same notification again, and pressing it seems to reinstall 4.3. The notification then reappears after a week or so. I know the update isn't failing, as I can see in the settings that it's running 4.3.
Does anyone know why it might be doing this, and how I can stop it?!

[Q] How to get OTA notification again?

Hi All,
Last week I received a system update for my Nexus 7 for Lollipop. At that time I didn't want to update so I dismissed the notification. The problem is that I can't get it to re-appear. I've already tried to check for updates 100 times over a couple of days. I've also cleared the Google Play Services and then check for updates, but didn't work.
Is there a simple way to get the update notification again?
Thank you for your help!
Yes, wait for the OTA to become available again. There's a possibility that the latest OTA (5.0.1) was pulled and is no longer available. If you really want the update, download the firmware from Google and flash it manually.
Edit: someone got the notification today. So who knows why you haven't received the notification.
I thought one you dismiss the notification and don't take the update you go back to the end of the queue - so it could be weeks before you get it again.
Happened to me as well. Got the notification last week for 5.0.1, didn't update but didn't dismiss it either. After a couple of days it just disappeared and so far hasn't shown again.
I'm still waiting on 5.0 here. Getting annoyed and was looking for sideload update options but if other people are still waiting on it I guess I'll hold off a bit longer.
If you're now running a modified stock rom, you will most likely have issues updating with the OTA. Here's a way to update without having problems or waiting for the OTA with no loss of data: Download the rooted rom from Scrosler found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/nex.../rom-factory-stock-rooted-rom-lrx22c-t2960745 , use Wugfresh's NRT 1.9.9 to update the bootloader that's also mentioned in Scrosler's thread, and then dirty flash (no wipes) the 5.0.1 rom with TWRP.

Stop waiting and do it manually. Why is everyone so consumed with sideloading? You can flash the latest firmware in fastboot without losing anything.
When I lost my update (long story) it took 3 days to come back. A little less than I was expecting but still a little more than I wanted. I'd expect you'll get it back in 2-3 days.
Same here! But will download it now instead. Tierd of waaiting

[Q] Is there a new update?

Hi all. At 4:20 AM PDT (the notification sys 8:20AM for some reason) this morning (June 12) my Note 4 buzzed and woke up and let me know there was a software update available. Any idea what this is?
I didn't install the small security update last month yet, is this just that update trying to be more forceful (the notification will not go away)? Or is it a new update?
Try it, and let us know what it is !
I didn't install last month's security update myself for the fear of losing that slim chance of an unlocked bootloader and root..lol
I haven't received a notification about an update this month..would you happen to have a description of the update?
Well, the notification wasn't going away and I accidentally hit continue and it rebooted and installed whatever it was.
Took it's sweet time installing and then optimizing apps, and as far as I'm aware nothing changed. Same baseband, same kernel, same build number (LMY47X.N910AUCU2DOI3) according to About Device.
Also my phone is starting to show me the same annoying screen that started appearing when the security update came out saying to connect to wifi to download another update (whatever update was installed today, it downloaded itself via mobile, not wifi).
So I am rather confused as to what the 'update' I installed was.
