Update Error - ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, I really hope you can give me a hand here. I was rooted using method 3. Yesterday I unrooted the device. Today there were some OTA updates, so I downloaded them and wanted to install them. It was 58 if I'm not mistaken. The phone rebooted and started installing the updates and after few seconds a symbol of android popped up with an error message. After that the phone started and said that update wasn't installed and the origanal settings were returned. After that it said that there wen't new updates available. Factory reset didn't help either. Later a new update was available 59 I think, but the same thing happened... I really don't know what to do now.
I have ZF2 64Gb, WW version installed on it.
right now running 2.19.40.22
I'm really hoping for your help
Update: I've don't system wipe and cache wipe from the recovery menu
Update N2: I've managed to install V2.19.40.22 image from official website. But my phone doesn't show me an option to do an OTA update, it says that there aren't any update available. Is there a way to make him check again properly?

Nope I only used root for titanium backup. It's been deleted... I can't even try to install new updates anymore...

Do you mean as in making the file MOFD_SDUPDATE.zit puting it on the SD card and through recovery? The update starts, then says gives an error
In recovery it says:
Veryfying current system...
"/system/build.prop" has unexpected contents
E: Error in /sdcard/MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip
(status 7)
I might have edited my build.prop file back then when I was playing with DPI. Now I can't find the line I edited... please help

That's why you have to flash the pre root firmware first. It restores all the system files so they can pass the check while the OTA runs.

[HELP] Error Reason 403 when doing VZW update

Saw last night on Engadget that the Verizon update finally came out. I can't use PC Companion because Verizon doesn't use the MTP driver so I have to do OTA update. I also tried SEUS and it said my phone was up to date.
My phone is prompted to install the update; it downloads about 54MB and starts to install after rebooting a few times. Eventually it comes up and says it failed.
I checked Settings > About Phone > Software update > Update now > Info, and it says
Firmware version:
SEMC_R800_R800x_user_3.0.E.2.89_1245-4101_R68C
Source: Verizon Wireless
Update status: Update Failed
Reason code: 403
Update package size: 54.58 MB
This software update includes enhancements and improvements to to your Xperia PLAY(R800x)
MobileCare version: 6.1.0_B191_SE.
I moved a lot of apps to SD to give me more internal space and tried again, same result.
Removed battery for about five minutes; same result.
My Play is rooted and the BL was unlocked, but locked it again so I could do the OTA update.
Any help guys? I'd love to get these awesome features!
EDIT: I also posted this question here http://talk.sonyericsson.com/thread/23855?tstart=0
I read another post saying that if I removed any of the bloatware it would not let me install it. If that is true, can someone point me to a backup of the included apps? I saw a link here a long time ago but now can't find it.

You're welcome. Don't forget to hit the "thanks" button!
Unfortunately I received the same result. I installed all the apks I removed earlier and rebooted, then downloaded / installed the update again. Still Error Reason 403. Anyone else have any ideas?
RESOLVED!
I used SEUS and used it to "repair" my device back to settings. I kept all my personal info and apps. I downloaded the update again and it installed just fine. I did lose root access though

Update after root ?

Hi Devs
I rooted my A100 ICS, couple weeks ago and now there an official update available OTA.
I hesitated to accept it, and then just downloaded it and install.
when it restarted a popup message says: update fail.
does rooting have anything to do with this .
is there any solution to this ?
Thanks
I have updated ota with a rooted tab, it went fine and justed needed to reroot with zernulls method.
If you removed any bloatware/system apps, it will fail. Hopefully you have a ti backup of everything.
Edit: if you need to reinstall a system app, you can try and go to /system/app, and click on the apk to reinstall it.

Does anyone know what file/apk to change to stop OTA

Want to block OTA updates on my 8.4 Wifi. Anyone know what apk/file(s) to rename/freeze to keep it from trying to update? I'm rooted, but still on the stock ROM.
I believe it will not update ota now that its rooted, simple test is to check for update, go through that, it should end up telling you something like, file have been change or modified or something and it wont let you update

It's trying to update & I just keep selecting the 3 hour postponement. I'm rooted and it's still trying. On my phone (GS4) I renamed the update apk, but I don't know the filename of the one on the tab.

On mine I went into 'settings/general/about device/software update' and unticked automatically check for updates. Then booted into recovery (stock recovery still on mine) and cleared the cache (which I believe deletes the OTA update file) then rebooted.
Since doing that I have not had any software update notifications and the OTA file hasn't reappeared.
My tab is on the original stock ROM and rooted with Towelroot.

[Q] LS980ZVC System Update Download notification?

Hey guys!
I just bought a used unlocked LG Sprint G2 with LS980ZVC software version.
I am getting this annoying update of "System Update Downloaded" , I am not aware what will happen if I install it. So I am scared to install it
Will it unroot or block my device again? Anybody who have faced this before?
Please help.
Do not flash if your device is rooted! Your device will be bricked if you have a custom recovery installed, and you will have to go through a lot to get it to boot again. I just installed a Slimkat roms and got rid of the notification. you can also turn off the notification in the settings by disabling it.
Just repeating, you cannot flash an OTA update on the G2 if your device is running a custom recovery and is rooted.
I checked and there was no recovery installed. Updated and working fine.
Thanks for the info. So I can flash the OTA updates by downloading them manually if I have a recovery installed?
Calls getting blocked on recieving?

Question Update on poco f3.

Hi folks, I need your help. Every time an update comes out for my poco f3 and I update, I have to do a reset right away because I always get the message saying to restart now or update tonight. Either way it never disappears and I can only update to a new version if I format it after updating. Happen to anyone else? Hug
Are you on Stock? Locked Bootloader?
Yes, stock. Now 12.5.8 Miui global Rkheuxm but allways from start have to do format after update.
Hi..are you flashing the correct rom? As "eu" is the European version "mi" is the global one..sorry had to ask..
I haven't installed any ROMs, I've just been updating whenever an update comes out. I have the equipment as it came from the factory, but update, and everytime I update after that it restarts and it always remains options that I mentioned in the first post and without formatting after updating, I can no longer search for updates. I have bootloader locked
