My phone is running the BOG5 5.0.1 software and it is a retail edition.
I recieved a notification on my device prompting me that a new update is available (finally! 5.1.1!) I tap "download now", the download eventually finishes and it proceeds to install.
My phone boots into recovery, "installing update" and very shortly after I see the droid triage error and below it says "error!" and then my phone reboots. When I unlock my phone it says, "Sorry, there was a problem updating your SAMSUNG SM-N910V. No changes were made."
I looked under software update in settings and it says "software not updated to N910VVRU2BOK3" and the error code is 410.
I also notice that when I go into recovery it says "dm-verity verification failed...."
I looked in Kies to see if the update was available there, and of course it wasn't. And I can't find the ROM anywhere as of yet to flash with ODIN.
I would appreciate all of the help I can get.
Thank you.

I'm having the exact same issue and symptoms, have you made any progress with this? If I find a solution I'll share here too. I've tried Kies and VZW Software Upgrade Assistant, neither finds the update, but I can get it on my retail VZ Note 4, just won't successfully install.

Thank you for your feedback. I wonder if it has to do with a corrupt software build on our devices. I ordered my phone in November of last year and it came with BOG5 on it. I'm going to see about flashing stock BOG5 completely fresh on the phone and see if that corrects the issue.

Sounds like something worth trying, I'll watch for an update on how it goes for you. Thanks!
I have found a solution (albeit requires a full wipe, which is worth having 5.1.1 for me)
Firstly, I attempted flashing the "stock restore" file in odin and resulted in an error, I then tried the full firmware instead (mind you for BOG5, if you're having problems on your current version I'd suggest using your current build) with success, proceed with a data wipe in recovery and noticed that the "dm-verity verification failed...." message is now gone and now that bottom area of the screen has information about applying Multi-CSC.
Restart the phone, set up as normal and go straight for the software update. My phone downloaded and installed the update perfectly! For safety just boot into recovery and do a full wipe again, and there you have it!

Thank you for reporting back with what worked for you. I've tried following the same steps you took, but after flashing the full BOG5 firmware and doing a data wipe and then doing basic setup on my phone, the OTA is still failing, Error Code: 404. I'll try again, but so far no success. Still stuck on the buggy 5.0.1, the version where you can't flash back to 4.4.4....

I am sorry to hear that this didn't work for you. But it appears we're both getting different error codes. Does your recovery display issues with dm-verity failing? I think this was part of my problem in the first place.

You're right, I thought I had seen that message earlier in the week while trying to get the OTA for 5.1.1 to work, but I didn't write it down. Your description of symptoms matched mine so well I figured it had to be the same issue or something so similar that running through the same process would work for me too.
I may take the phone into Verizon to show them the update fail and see if they are willing to do anything for me....
Glad you got yours up and running, but I am just a little bit jealous

I've found that most times the OTA update fails prior to rebooting to install the update and I get the 404 error I reported earlier. However, when it does make it to the point of doing the OTA update after reboot, after that fails, I get the same 410 error you reported, see attached, and I also the dm-verity fail message in recovery. Then after using Odin to install BOG5, the verity fail disappears, replaced by a Multi-CSC message, I do a complete data wipe/factory reset, set up my basic google account and try the OTA, which fails every time. But once the dm-verity fail is gone, I can try doing an update from external storage, which I've tried with the BOK3 5.1.1 zip file posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...id-5-1-1-according-to-website-t3290683/page20 However, this still fails to load.
At this point I'm pretty convinced that I some other issue with my phone. I found elsewhere that someone was able to take their phone into Best Buy and have them flash the 5.1.1 update for them via Kies. That is probably my next step.
But I wanted to share what I've tried in case anyone else is experiencing the same dead end or in the off chance that someone has found a solution.
Sure would love to see the full 5.1.1 BOK3 tar.md5 sometime before Marshmallow hits, pretty sure using Odin to install the update that way would work....

hello
i have rooted the device using the "1 CLICK ROOT TOOL" and now i have the dead android bot with error when i enter recovery.
i have tried the "fastboot erase cache" command at fastboot mode but it did not help
is their a way to fix it?
Try pressing Volume + key and Power. Don't hold just press. It might take a few goes to get it right. I had the same problem. That means that the update you have downloaded (saved on your system) fails to install.
hello and thanks
i can enter recovery by pressing the keys. this is not the issue
its just that i want to completely solve the problem

Awh sorry, I thought you can't get into recovery.
Try sideloading the stock Firmware. Go to official ASUS website and download it from there. It's about 1 GB. On this website you can find instructions on how to do it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/asus-zenfone-2-flashing-recovery-mode-t3096596 Section 3.2)
After that you can download OTA updates and install them using method described here http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/guide-to-apply-ota-bootloop-rooted-zf2-t3127835, "Steps to Apply OTA manually".
OTA can be downloaded from there (look at the later posts for newer OTA) http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/ota-links-stock-rom-t3093999
I had a very similar problem few days ago. That solved it. Had a similar problem a few days ago coz I messed up my build.prop
hello
i have already did a "adb siedeload" for the stock rom downloaded from the asus web site but the issue remain.
also i downloaded the latest ota, and "adb sideloaded" them as well. it worked flawlessly .
but the small thing with the recovery is annoying.
i thinking about looking inside tmp directory and delete something called "last update"
what do you say?

You're not understanding because the information he gave you is slightly wrong. When you try to enter stock recovery it will ALWAYS say installing update and pop up an error Android bot. It's not about having some update data somewhere that fails to install properly. It will ALWAYS do that. That's normal.

Owh, this is embarrassing. I was playing with it a lot and I was kind of sure that if you have a working installed update, which is the same as a zip of an OTA update you have on an SD card it will skip installing the update and go to recovery without an error, but I was very very wrong. I'm very sorry for missleading you, and I've learned something new. Thank you.

No worries, I've made the same mistake before. We've all been there, still learning new things about this phone after months of using it!
ok let me tell why i begin asking about it.
when i just got the phone i update all of the ota updates and after that i rooted it with "1 CLICK ROOT TOOL" .
two days ago i receive tha 2.20.40.58 ota . i downloaded and install but the instalation failed .
so i unroot it with "1 CLICK ROOT TOOL" and then i checked for update . but there was no update.
so i assumed the problem is because of the recovery issue.
the qustion is why i cannot install ota automatically ?

The 2.20.40.58 OTA was bugged and pulled from release. Just flash the full stock 2.20.40.59 firmware available from ASUS site and stop modifying your phone if you want to remain trouble-free with OTA updates. Or if you choose to continue to root and tinker with your phone accept that some things might get broken.
Hello, first timer here. I have never tried rooting or anything, but today I finally decided to... and messed it up.
Verizon Samsung Note 2 SCH-i605 (yes, still.)
Got it on July 2nd, 2013, so I believe it was build 4.1.1 kernel 3.1? Not too sure on the legalities
Completely unrooted and unmodded
I was using kingo root and everything was fine until it hit about 52% on the rooting process when my computer lost connection with my phone. Since, it gave me the "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue" problem. So then I google-fu'd and followed directions of:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2040264

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582290
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2024207
etc.
and used Odin 3.10.7 (and 3.10.0 just in case, both on and off admin mode cause why not) on every single md5 available in all those links and the one from sammobile.com for sch-i605.
And each time, I would either received failure on "sboot.bin" or receive the "System Software Not Authorized" error if succeeded (it was stuck in bootload? too, kept flashing the logo then the error message). The VERY first time, however, it actually brought me to that page where I'm allowed to press things like erase cache, factory reset, or reboot my phone. There, I chose all those options in the order I've listed them. And ever since I haven't seen that screen again.
My issue seems to be every problem I can find put together, and can't seem to resolve it with my skills alone. I honestly don't care about recovering my data (which I believe is impossible now anyway) or rooting my phone. I just want it to turn on again.
Thanks in advance.
p.s. getting a new phone isn't an option currently
-edit-
Checked my verizon wireless software upgrade assistant for some info, and it says "Up to date" and "Version ND3" if that means anything to you pros out there.

Greetings,
Thank you for using XDA Assist. To get you the best possible assistance, I'm going to move this thread to your device's Q&A forum. Good luck!
install kies and try flashing rom. do you have rom from i.e. sammobile? use different odin versions and do not mark repartition

KIES is unable to read my phone (tried the bottom 3 versions of it), and I've tried running Odin 3.07 and unchecked repartition for every stock and restore md5s I had for my phone... the ones that didn't fail sboot.bin are still giving me unauthorized error.
I'll keep trying all the combinations, but it seems moot at this point.
I'm not the kind of person to ask for help if the answer to my problem might be out there already. I've followed relevant threads. I've searched XDA and googled. I've tried some things. I'm stuck.
I have an unlocked bootloader and FRP. When I go into Settings, OEM unlocking is greyed out. (Yes, I can use the phone.)
I do not have TWRP (anymore). I flashed stock recoveries.
I'm on build B101 and System Update is prompting my to update to B130. I can download it and, when prompted, reboot into recovery to update automatically.
I get to 100% and get the following error:
Software install failed!
Failed to check the update files.
Please download the package again.
Reboot system now
(See screenshot attached)
Now that it's available in Firmware Finder, I attempted to load B150 as well. Same thing.
I tried relocking bootloader, but it immediately prompts me to factory reset. After doing that, I get to reboot into recovery by default, other recovery by pressing the buttons, or fastboot via my PC.
Now, since we STILL don't have full firmware (supposed to have gotten it Friday, right?) I'm reluctant to use the images from here, especially if I'm not sure that would actually fix my issue.
What is going on with my software update? How do I fix this?
Did they actually release the BND-L24 firmware and no one noted it here?
Help, please!
Thanks.

I'm not certain why that happens, But I have a guess.
On each update that I have looked at, the recovery gets and update too. So different signatures and such.
Maybe the "stock" recovery you have re-flashed, is not correct version for your installed and update rom.
I cannot confirm this as I am missing the update app.
If you could help me with my missing files , I could help you with your update problem.
You could help me by pulling a list of packages installed so I can see what apps I have missing, and hopefully get them back (stock only, preferably done after a fresh factory reset.)
Directions for this on this thread.

thank you that helps.
I see I am missing an entire folder.
/data/hw_init
Could you see if it is accessible .
Code:
mkdir %userprofile%\Desktop\hw_init
adb pull /data/hw_init %userprofile%\Desktop\hw_init
I think it is not permitted though.
Uploaded. See referenced thread. I hope it helps!

I will see what I can do with that. And hopefully can get past any file verification. And if I figure that out it should help you too.
Or , with my luck, the moment I figure it out , the stock firmware will come out.
I pushed the hw_init folder to /data while in twrp, then put stock recovery back(the version I expect should be correct) and I got same update failed error, as the OP.
That tells me maybe is probably some other reason , besides the version of stock recovery is causing this trouble.
Not sure if there is confirmation of successful update while bootloader is unlocked or not. Too late for me to try tonight, but next I will re-lock bootloader and try again.
My last (really current) phone needed to be re-locked in order to take updates.
**UPDATE**
re-locking bootloader did not help any at all. I still have error failed to check file, please download again.
On the manual update to oreo thread, they are using a "stock-ish" recovery named "no-check"
I am thinking I might flash that recovery to try and force this update to install.
BND-RECOVERY-NoCheck.img? Is that region-specific? Will it work with the BND-L24?

I have ordered a second 7x. I plan to pull the hw_init folder , and the remainder of /data that might be missing from this device , because of a result of formating it in twrp. I plan to restore that as an image, in hopes of getting updater to complete properly. And if that works, you will be able to use my backup and update your phone too.
If not , well , doesn't hurt to try.
I'm comparing the images pulled from my device and the images available for the Indian "return to stock thread. And I see the problem with the USA L24 version.
The cust.img for usa has no app folder.
It did not make sense to me before why there was apps only installed in /data. Because /data should be able to be fully wiped and your system will recreate the file structure. But The apps should have been on one of the images.
My second phone arrived today. I pulled the hw_init folder from it.
did a diff comparison on the updater app from the new phone and and the one that I had to apply patches to , to bring it up from b101 to b140. The result was 100% same.
and three more apps where in the hw_init folder as well. (bloat apps really)
now the bad news.
My original phone (the one that I had formatted /data on). Now has the same /data/hw_init folder as the brand new device. But always shows no update available.--It showed update once, the first time checked, install failed , now shows nothing available.
And the new phone does show an update available (B150) , but fails to install. Then after the failed install, now it shows no update available.
That's insane.
So... in summary, neither will update? Neither the original nor the unaltered brand-new device?
If anyone else has had this issue but has since resolved it, would you mind letting us know how? @mrmazak is working on it and I've also been told by the FUT team that I should expect some kind of communication from "Oscar Felix."
(If you've searched the forums for other Honor or Huawei devices, you probably already know that there is some speculation about whether or not Oscar Felix is a real person.)
I have the same problem but I'm stuck on update b140 and I can't even get the face unlock feature update. I was rooted with twrp recovery but now I have reinstalled the stock recovery and removed root

Did you get the Oreo update today?
No I didn't, did you find out what can we do about this?
Is it a way I can update my phone manually
I'm watching this thread , myself. That might be the key.
Hopefully something comes up soon or is there a rom I can get if I reroot my phone?
Hello everyone, I decided to root my phone today. First I enabled OEM unlock and then installed TWRP, no problems with that. Then I tried to install CF autoroot through recovery and everything seemed fine. When I tried to boot up my phone it said something like integrity check failed and I had to do a factory reset to be able to even start the phone. I did not do that but tried to install official samsung oreo firmware through odin but it won't install, just fails. Then i got other error message saying "an error occured while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software". The only thing I can do now is enter download mode and nothing else but odin does not let me flash anything. I'm desperate here so any suggestion would be great. Model is SM A-320FL btw. Sorry for my english and lengthy post

What kind of error do you get in Odin?
Is it the one that says something like "SW Rev. check fail"?
If so than for me it worked to flash the bootloader and modem of Oreo and the after that i reinstalled the OS without any problems.
First it was just a red fail for BL, CSC and those other things and later it just won't even start. When I try to install TWRP it goes to half and stays there. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Thank you for the reply, I don't think it was from carrier, when I tried to flash firmware I downloaded latest firmware from my current carrier so I think that shouldn't be a problem. I'll contact you tomorrow because i'm just too tired now. And update, I can flash TWRP now if that is of any help.
It is solved now, thanks everyone for your help

Hi. Glad to see you got this sorted, but it may be useful for other users to see what you did to resolve this.
Yes, how did you solved that.
Looking at two A320F I found one difference:
One has AP SWREV B:2 K:0 S:0
the other one (that makes trouble): AP SWREV B:3 K:1 S:1
What exactly does it mean.
Flashing with Odin gave me erros (on device, Odin just say "failed") depending on flashing BL (SW Rev Check failed )Bootlader Device: 3, binary: 2 , while flashing AP gives Kernel Rev check fail.
So, how to go on? I was able to flash TWRP, but not Stock (neither an old 6.0 nor 8.0).
Ok, solved it. Flashing stock will probably only work to same or newer versions, not for downgrade (at least not without any special tricks that I don't know).
After downloading the latest stock FW , odin passed.
Now I still have the problem, that I can't transfer data partion from one A3 to another one.

My first error was that I downloaded wrong firmware for my phone and because of that odin gave me errors. Second error was that I tried to wipe data through advanced wipe, but I needed to format it by pressing format data button. After doing that I was able to flash official stock ROM, install TWRP and root my phone. User MartinYTCZ helped me greatly with this, big thanks to him again. :victory:

Can't you backup your internal storage on PC or SD card, contacts, messages, phone calls, settings on samsung account and apps and data with titanium backup? When I flashed stock ROM I lost all data from my phone so be careful with that.
Hey guys,
With the whole stay at home situation I stumbled upon my old Note 4 (sprint variant SM-N910p). I haven't touched it in several years, and have no clue what rom/firmware was on it, but it won'T boot. I can get into recovery but it fails to wipe anything, I was able to flash twrp (twrp-3.0.2-0-trltespr.img) through Odin, and i have tried various firmwares, but odin always fails. I have tried different cables, and even another computer. Not sure where to go from here. I only want the phone restored to factory, i do not need root. I have tried stock firmwares from sammobile aslo to no avail.
Any suggestions and help would be great!!
Thanks
Purell and be well!!!!!
If your on the latest update 5DQ15 then your locked on a fused 5, binary 4 and will be prevented from downgrading. Odin will show "sw rev check fail" when attempting to flashing a lower aboot. The firmware is at the top of the link

The main file download is not available from androidfilehost anymore.
if you do get it to pop through, it just doesn't download.
Do you know of an alternate source for this file??
I'm messing around with one of my old note 4's to check out the new roms without flashing my daily driver note 4. I done borked this one up long time ago, so it's wipe wiped.
Might have been a bad battery long time ago when this thing started messing up on me. doh!

Looks like it works randomly. Decided to try again.
