[Q] Lollipop update no longer available [v510] - G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I pulled out my G Pad 8.3 GPE a few days ago after it had been in a suitcase for a couple of weeks and as one might expect the battery was dead. I plugged it in and let it charge for a bit before turning it on; much to my excitement I saw the toast notification that a system update was available for 5.0 Lollipop. With the battery only at 2% at the time of the notification I decided to put the update off until the battery was charged.
Well now that the battery has been fully charged and everything is working as usual, the update has disappeared and every time I go to settings->about phone->system update and force it to check for update it just says that my system is up to date when I am clearly still on 4.4.4.
How can I get the OTA update to 5.0? Did I miss it somehow?

Hi, you can download the update from this post and side load it using the stock recovery. Just Google "sideload OTA Android update and you should find instructions,it is the same as Nexus devices. Just make sure your device is completely stock, no root, stock recovery and kernel or it won't work.

Thanks for the info. I was trying to avoid rooting/sideloading etc as I have not felt the need to do much to this device since it is on stock android, but if this is the only way, then so be it.
Thanks for again!

Side loading an update does not require your tablet to be rooted. It is just another way of pushing the official update. It should not cause you any long term issues

[Q] Should I update to the OTA gingerbread update?

Hey, I'm sorry I'm a noob, but I was wondering, I'm on the Virtuous 3.2 ROM which is pretty much like the stock ROM, minus the bloatware, buy has other features like battery percentage on the notification battery icon and other few tweeks. I got a notification saying that I was verified for the Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread update. Since I'm not on my stock sense ROM, would it be alright to just go ahead and install it or just manually install it?
I am on the skyraider 4.3, which I love. I woke up and saw the same notification, I believe that not update right now or it might brick your Di, can somebody help us? Thanks.

I too received the notice to update. I am rooted with s-off bit still on the stock Rom. I don't want to lose root or s-off so I am going to wait a bit.
I think you can accept the OTA update and re-root but not 100% sure.
I want to start flashing roms but I need a bigger SD card first.
Sent from my rooted HTC Incredible using XDA App
I'm pretty sure the s-off part is not going to hurt anything, but if you are rooted and have a different recovery the OTA will not work. My suggestion is, even tho its annoying resist the urge to do the OTA until someone can root it, and make it flashable with CWM.
So i recently broke my original Incredible but got a basically unused one from a friend. It had stock 2.2 on it, so i manually upgraded to 2.3 with the previous gingerbread update verizon released, but then pulled. So i never rooted or S-off'd this phone. This might seem like an obvious answer, but should I, or even can I perform the OTA update?
I think there is someone who already made a flashable version of the OTA update, but its for root users only and it has to be done through CWM
Sent from my ADR6300 using xda premium
I've been on the stock ROM since I got the phone, and I'll probably just flash the OTA Rom once I get some clarification on the process
Is there a way to make the OTA update nag screen go away? I'm on skyraider 4.3, I'd rather just wait for 5.0.
@cpuspeed I'm getting there same problem. Hopefully, some of the ROM developers will update. I actually want a ROM based off the OTA release so I can keep on using my TV out cable lol

Is there a way to force the nag/ notification to appear? I've been checking for it all morning
You can force your phone to check for an update by opening the phone screen (like you're going to make a call) and typing the following:
*#*#checkin#*#*
Don't spell out checkin in letters, those are simply the numbers on the keypad that you need to press. You should receive a notification that the checkin succeeded. Now you can go to menu>settings>about phone>system updates and see if it shows up. This doesn't guarantee that it'll immediately find the update, but it does force the phone to check for one.
But is there any way to get rid off the nagging message "there an update ready for the phone, install now or later?"

Not that I'm aware of. I'm running Skyraider 4.3 and am encountering the same message. Rather annoying.
what if it says 'checkin failed'? Do I need to be on 3g for the checkin to work?
edit: Ok I switched to 3g and it said 'checkin succeeded', but still shows no update when I go to settings, about, system updates. Guess I'll have to wait.
thank you though.
to get rid of the nag screen delete or rename OTAcets.zip in /system/ect/security, I just renamed to OTAcets.zip.bak.
use root explorer or ghost commander w/busybox to edit root files.
reboot for the nag screen to go away. go to menu>settings>about phone>system updates if you want to update in the future or delete the file in /cache directory if you know you don't ever want to.
give thanks if this was helpful.
silly question I guess, but do I need to be on 3g in order for the update notification to show up? I work from home am connected to wifi 24/7. I rarely put my phone on 3g since it eats battery on 3g. I will keep it on 3g though for next few days if necessary.

Nope, I was on WiFi only yesterday and it showed up all by itself in the evening. I'm also on Pagepluscellular, so you don't even have to be directly subscribed with verizon. Also don't have to have stock rom as I'm rooted, s-off and using custom rom (skyraider 4.3).
@cpuspeed, the method didn't work. Is there any way? Also there is another file in the same directory *.bks

014 in the development section is the official stock rom...not sure if you tried any games on the leak but the touch screen issues is one of the biggest flaws. Some apps that didn't function well on the leak seem to work now as well. Upgrading would be the same as how you did with the leak...place the update.zip on the root of the sdcard and hold up volume button + power upon starting up the tablet and you should be good...if you already have the bootloader unlocked and already installed a new recovery (cwm or teamwin) then just put the zip on your sdcard...load up recovery and install (wipe everything as usual of course)

It is one of the official ICS updates. I have personally seen one tab get updated to the same build OTA.

BTW...if you have unlocked your bootloader and install the stock ics (014) then it will relock your bootloader....the process to get back to being unlocked will be the same as before which is good..

What steps are you doing? Make sure the update.zip is in fact named just that: update.zip, and make sure it is on the external_sd. A nice cleanly formatted microSD card is a good idea.
The normal steps. Rename the file to update.zip and boot into stock recovery.

Got it to update.
Figured out I wasn't putting it on mnt/external sd or whatever.
Who would of known there were so many different little levels on tablet with its own set of folders.
If it wasn't for es file explorer or whatever it's called and it's favorite button I would of never seen it and known what I was doing wrong.
So I am now up to date and the touch screen is amazing, and spot on.
I was wondering why I would try to copy text and it would never select or if it did select it would select text on a entire different area of the screen.
My gf manages her Vista print website front the tablet and always complained of never being able to hit the right buttons or it would select a entire different area of the Web Page editor.
We never put 2 and 2 together that it was a touch screen issue.
Because I never seen another bug and thought the release was pretty stable and efficient.

ok so i have figured out how to go back and re-install HC 3.2. i took a pic of that version. then i got the update. another pic of version .then i ended up at 3.2.1 and then nothing. system update always says your system is up to date. i tried registering because the tablet asked for it. i did it. (it told me i was previously registered.) anyways, my girlfriends daughter has an a100 and it updated naturally and here is a pic of her version on her tablet. no one has mentioned this version anywhere that i have found. anyone heard or seen this version? is there something i need to do to get the update juices flowing? i been checking every 5 or 10 minutes with no luck....

[Q] Blue LED and no screen :(

tl;dr I have a blue LED showing up in the top left of the phone and nothing showing up on the screen after the SAMSUNG logo appears. I do hear the Sprint 4G LTE music, but that's it. The screen is off.
NOTE: I'm running Sprint's stock 4.1.1 ROM rooted.
Other threads I looked at (neither is the same issue):

I had my first OTA update appear today. When I ran the update, Clockwork showed up and upon hitting "Yes", it failed. I looked around online and found this guide to reverse my rooting: http://www.epiccm.org/2012/06/sprint-sgs3-stock-restore.html
I was able to successfully flash TeamEpic-RemoveRoot-from-Recovery-signed.zip, but I didn't hit the keys right for the next one and ended up booting into the OS.
After restarting the phone, I hit the right keys and started ODIN. I saw COM show up in blue and put the TeamEpic-Sprint-SGS3-stock-boot-and-recovery.tar.md5 file in the PDA area then hit Start. I got a green PASS and then closed Odin and waited.
The phone had a black screen with that blue LED in the top left. I waited a while and then just powered it off. Took out the battery and tried again, same thing; although, the SAMSUNG logo does show up. It turns off when the Sprint part is supposed to show and at that moment I can hear the audio but the screen turns off. In this mode, the phone gets very very hot.
I can still boot into the stock recovery, but I can't do much else.
I just wanted the OTA . Does anyone know what might be happening?
EDIT: I put Clockwork Recovery back on, and then Advanced Recovered the boot part of a backup I did before this mess. Surprisingly, that worked. Problem is, I still haven't gotten the OTA working.
Ideas?

Why are you so intent on taking the OTA? Freeza has a stock rooted ROM over in his thread. And if you want just update the baseband, just flash the "MB1 Firmware/modem/baseband update" file in the aforementioned thread.
If you're already rooted with a custom recovery (which you were/are), there's no reason to unroot just to flash the OTA. Freeza typically has his stock rooted ROM updated with the OTA within a week of it being released. In my area OTAs are kind of late, so he typically gets it out before I even see the notification.
So, in summary. OTAs are not required, XDA (and Freeza in particular) has you covered.

I'll go ahead and give it a try then. I haven't ever had a ROM update since I got the phone in October so I figure the upgrade won't work right, and I'll need the full ROM. Currently doing a backup.
Does flashing a ROM affect all app settings? And if so, by that point I'd just wanna have another ROM. The main reason I am fine w/ the stock ROM rooted is bc all my settings and apps are already installed and configured as well as the fact that I know it will work properly. So if this removes my settings, no reason to go stock anymore aside from the fact that I've seen that CyanogenMod doesn't get as good of signal on the S III as stock-based ROMs. Do you know if this still true?

A dirty flash is when you flash without clearing anything, and that's why no data is lost when you do one of those. However it can lead to issues, so i would advise against it when possible

Bootlooping after installing OTA

Hi,
I received a notification for a software update which brings :- Power Optimization
So I do choose to install it. It reboots, installs, reboots and now it's looping on the LG logo. I've not added any custom software or modified the stock OS in any way.
First LG phone and my phone is literally not functional after an OTA lol. Not a good first impression. Gonna try to see if I can reset it somehow. It's just that all this nonsense is waste of time.

Edit:
Factory reset seems to have worked. Phone is functional now, but I have to go through the pain of installing and setting up everything again -_-

I got it too, though I haven't applied it. I'm rooted and running a custom kernel and Clockworkmod recovery, so I was surprised to see the update come through. Now I guess I'll have to look at that stupid icon until my Nexus 6 arrives, as I don't dare apply it and risk losing root.
DO NOT apply this update until someone who knows what they're doing tells us what it is. It's 93mb, and after I applied it on 4.4.2 rooted, I couldn't get past the Galaxy Note II screen. It would freeze at a black screen after that. I had to apply the 4.4.2 firmware again to get the phone to boot. After it booted and i was completely unrooted, I tried the OTA update again, same result, it wouldn't boot past the Galaxy Note II logo screen, just went black and froze, so again I flashed 4.4.2 and rooted the phone.
Not sure why it wouldn't flash when I was unrooted but maybe it has something to do with KNOX being disabled on my phone from SuperSU.

Forgot to say after that I completely disabled the ability for the phone to update. It actually did it without my permission which pissed me off.
Weird. I unrooted back when kitkat came out so I could have working tap and pay for Google wallet. When I applied yesterday's update it worked perfectly. Whatever it is, it's invisible to a stock phone.

what did you do to return to stock?
GN3 rom
I went to downloadandroidrom.com website to download the stock recovery but they have all stock recovery except ATT. so i am still looking for a website to download stock recovery for att and once you have it flash it using twrp and whie restarting just press volume up + home + power key and when the phone starts release powerkey while still holding the other two keys . this should completely get rid of twrp and install stock. but of you have a link to get the stock recovery for att please do post. i would appretiate it.

nvm, I reread the instructions and realized that I was warned that this would happen.... after advancing the date 1 day as suggested everything worked flawlessly.
I have posted a fix for those of you who got bricked by this update: see http://forum.xda-developers.com/gala...t2939649/page2. I give detailed instructions on how to fix it.
Please spread the word.
