Automatic updates > from phone settings menu, not working? How does it looks on Your
Hello all
I recently saw in my phone settings menu option for "automatic checking of firmware update" and also "check for update"
And a question is - does it work on your defy?
I have 2.51 firmware - so i think latest one, but anyway when i click "check for update" new (black) screen appears, with text "checking for update, please wait".... And thats all. It stays on this screen forever, and nothing happens..
No feedback - for ex. that i have the latest one, or sth..
How exactly this works on your defy? I am warried because i think i may had removed some important apk from /system/app
I heard FOTA is responsible for updates? But i didnt delete that one....
so: how exactly this "check for update" works on your defy?
Yes mine did the same thing last week where it was just continuously searching. It is now ok and searches for a few seconds then says phone is up to date.
yesterday i searched for updates in phone menu and it said as it always did "checking for updates is unavailable. tray again later" so i decided to try motorola software updater and guess WHAT? it updated from 2.34 to 2.51.
i think the servers aren't online, or i don't know. but on 5 devices in my country says the same message when checking for updates.

AT&T Software Update

I've noticed that my phone has an available software update in the "about device" section in settings. After hitting the "check for updates" I get an error message saying "it can't currently connect to the servers".
I've tried this on WiFi and on my LTE connection and both don't work. What should I do? Does anyone else have this problem? How do I update this phone?!?!
I don't see anywhere that it says there is an update but I have been getting that server error it seems like forever now.

connect you phone to kies, it will say update is available, let it update. This is will fix your update problem.
But update will remove your universal search
Thanks Sam, I guess there is no need for me to update then. At least I know what to do when there is a good update in the future!

if you root, then you can put old search.apk to get universal search back.

[Q] How to update Nexus 7 2013 LTE to Kitkat (4.2.2) version?

Hi there, I recently bought the Nexus 7 2013 LTE version (4G, 32GB, etc). I'm not that familiar with the device and not sure how to update it to Android KitKat 4.2.2 version. I do receive the following message (screenshot also attached) when I went to the 'System updates' option (Settings > About tablet > System updates). Device is currently running Android 4.3 with the build number JSS15J.
Message:
Android 4.2.2 System Update
Waiting to download 257.3 MB Via Wi-Fi only until Dec 31
This software update will upgrade your Nexus 7 to 4.4.2, which improve performance....
------
Even though the message says its waiting to download it doesn't download anything via Wi-Fi, and since this ends on 31-December I do not want to loose the update either. Can someone please help me to get the new update?
I have not rooted my tab, would like update the tab using the original Google system update.
Appreciate your comments and help on this as the update is almost ending soon.

Stupid question.... are you sure you connecting to a good wifi network? For one thing there is no wifi icon in the status bar of your screenshot and your LTE looks very weak. Once you get the wifi connected it might take a minute to actually connect to the google servers. You can see that in the quick settings, the wifi icon will change from orange (whatever color that is) to white. You also might try leaving your wifi on and rebooting.

Unfortunately the process com.samsung.syncservice has stopped...

This is just documenting a question and solution to a problem that took me a long time and a lot of searching to find. My two sons are earch running a Samsung Galaxy S3 with rooted stock ROMs pretty much since the phones were purchased. Out of the blue and just with this latest NJ2 update, one of their phones never received the OTA and would instead get the following error message: "Unfortunately the process com.samsung.syncservice has stopped". This would appear again when I would try to Update Firmware, Update Samsung Software, Update Profile, and Update PRL. After receiving the error, when I would reboot the phone I could update the PRL and Profile, but if I tried to update Samsung software or update firmware, the message would appear again.
Turns out that the solution was just to clear data/cache on the SyncMLSvc app via Application Manager, and then reboot the phone. Now all is well. Hope this helps someone else, and makes the solution a lot easier to find than it was for me.
