Yes, you can, but you will lose root and CWM and be back to a "stock" experience. You won't be able to root or install CWM again without downgrading.

Did you try doing a factory reset (volume down + power) after installing the new ICS update?
How do you get CM9 to go into "PC Software" mode? Right now the update software does not see phone is connected?
Thanks

Turn on USB debugging (aka Android debugging) under developer options. I think that will do it.

Can you document the steps you have been going through in attempts to update from ICS Leak. Do you have a rooted ICS Leak configuration?

Just to clarify, when you say it "didn't work", do you mean you couldn't get it to perform the factory reset? or that you did get it to do a factory reset but it didn't fix the problem?
I can confirm. I am on he leaked ICS and can't update to this version. I too get stuck at ATT Rethink logo. I went back to Leaked build.
I tried everything from putting the phone to download mode. Trying the "Recovery option". It seems like everything installs correctly but it gets stuck during the reboot process. Nothing I do can fix it.
Help Needed
Hi All,
I have an UNLOCKED LG Nitro HD and want to update to ICS.

Yes, you can update normally and you will still be SIM unlocked.

Stuck on "Rethink Possible" screen
I had the same problem.
I came from the rooted leaked ICS trying to update to the official version and got stuck on the rethink possible boot screen.
The way I got my phone to work was via hard factory reset
1 Turn the power off.
2 Press and hold the following keys at the same time for 8 seconds: Down Volume Key + Power/Lock Key
3 Release the keys when the FACTORY HARD RESET screen appears. (I had to try twice to get it to work and the phone needed to be unplugged from PC)
4 Read the warning and press the Power/Lock Key to confirm.
5 Press the Power/Lock Key image to confirm once more
6 Wait for your device to perform a hard reset (don't worry if it seems to be stuck on the rethink possible screen. It may take 1-2 minutes and the phone will start up properly).

I couldnt agree with you more, seems like those added features to disable unused programs and save battery actually made it worse.
I might be the only idiot but I could not get it to work till I took sd card and sim out of the phone.
I had to restart after drivers installed and use another port on laptop as the old usb one won't work...weird.
Anyways, after removing sim and sd, all I had to do was use a new fresh port after restart of computer and it all went well till I got stuck on AT&T logo. After 5 minutes, I pulled the battery out and restarted with vol down + power button and did a factory reset and all is working well now.
Thank you very much
I can get into recover,download mode, or the rom boot screen but phone turns off right after. It won't stay on long enough to change roms or backup anything. Does anyone have any suggestions of what to do? Thanks in advance
Can't not can...stupid tablet won't let me edit.
Please Specify your Rom and Kernel. If on Stock, do a factory reset.

I'm on Cyanogenmod with stock Kernel from Cyanogenmod, never changed my kernel. It was working fine for months then just rebooted on its own and won't stay on since. Unfortunately I'm stock and I'm not even sure it will stay on long enough to do anything to it.Its also not the battery. This video shows exactly whats happening to mine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J61jghxz-Vc
If it can stay stable in Download mode, then you can Odin Flash Root66. Once that's done, flash recovery again and the Rom.

That's the problem I can't. Is there any other options. I'm not worried about backups or anything I just want it fixed.
The video points to Recovery only. Have you tried to boot into Download mode (the kind that has yellow triangle and Downloading message ) ?

Yeh I've tried recovery and download. Neither one stays on for more than 5 seconds and in download mode after clicking up to go into download mode the phone restarts.
Could be hardware, could be softbrick. Can you try the De-Bricking thread's instructions ?

I'm beginning to think its a hardware problem. I got it to boot into recovery long enough to factory reset, load a new rom, and gapps. I rebooted and it loaded for a few seconds and turns off. It booted again and went to the optimizing apps screen then shut off before it could finish. Does this sound like it could be a software problem?

I got the phone to boot into cyanogenmod but in the set up screen it failed again. Really getting annoying and I can't figure out how to fix it.
Pull battery. Then put it back. Does it try to turn on by itself? Could be the power button issue many others have had.

YES thats it I was thinking there might be a problem with the power button...Is there a fix on this or a thread anywhere?
There have been many threads posted with this issue, and some did manage to just buy the part and fix themselves. No instructions though thst I'm aware of.
I'd suggest you google galaxy s3 or t999 teardown.

Found a few posts and people just thump around the general area of the power button and that seems to be a temporary fix and it worked for me for a little while. It's gonna work long enough to revert everything to stock and send in. Thanks you two for your help
Hello all, so yesterday I went on my tablet (Nexus 7 2013 WIFI ver.) and browsed the net a bit and went to sleep. I recall having around 30% battery power. This morning I wake up to an apparently flat battery (power button didn't turn on anything) so I just plugged it in and did something else. After a while, I took my tablet and started it with the power button. However, it got stuck on the Google logo and never fired up anything. I've rooted the tablet quite some time ago (months) so the cause is not from there.
Things I haven't recently done:
Installing an app.
Rooting or flashing anything.
Updating an app.
Things I have tried doing to fix the problem:
Booting into FASTBOOT then trying the recovery mode = still stuck on the Google logo.
Booting a custom recovery image using Wug's toolkit = frozen at the team logo (TWRP) / black screen (CWM).
Flash Stock + Unroot (Soft-Bricked/Bootloop) = FAILED (flash write failure).
So now I'm really stuck and desperate to make the device work again. I've been reading all day long and trying all sorts of solutions to no avail. And it seems far-fetched to me for a device like this to just instantly brick itself without any reason at all.
Can anyone help me with this case ? Or does anyone has any idea what just happened to my tablet ? :crying:
EDIT: I'm afraid that warranty might not work as the device was unlocked and rooted so it's the last solution for me.
Bumpity bump
No one has any idea what happened to the tablet and how to fix it ? I've tried doing some more flashing but to no avail. It just refuses to flash and keeps failing to write the files.
I think you need to leave out on the charger for 1/2hr without doing anything with it. You are probably using what little power it has charged by trying to reboot it, etc.
I had to do that once and it did the trick.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Free mobile app
There is no reason you should not be able to get in to recovery (power and volume down).
You could call Motorola. They have good tech support.
The exact same thing happened to me. I rooted it months ago and haven't changed a thing since then. It just froze up a few days ago. I restarted and it just gets stuck on the google screen. I can get into the bootloader, but when I try to go to recovery, the google screen comes up and won't go away. I've tried every method I can find for flashing the stock image and absolutely nothing is working. I just get stuck on the google screen.
Please update this if you find a solution!
Do u guys have the most up to date version of whatever particular recovery that you're on?
Yep. I've flashed the stock recovery multiple times to no avail. :/

If you can't get into recovery or flash any images it sounds to me like a hardware failure. Bad memory maybe? If you've tried everything then RMA to Asus before the one year warranty runs out.
Have you tried to see if your computer sees your N7 by typing fastboot devices if you have the sdk installed?

Yes, I can get into the bootloader just fine and I can use fastboot. I go through the flashing process and the command prompt says everything flashed successfully, but when I restart the device, it hangs on the google logo. The same thing happens when I try to boot into recovery.

If you fastboot flashed the factory image and can't boot up then it sounds like a hardware problem. Out of ideas, sorry.

I'm not sure what happened, but I just ran this little utility again (I've done it many times over the last week or so to no avail) and it actually worked. Hopefully it keeps working!

Hey guys,
So this morning I got prompted to update to 4.4.3 (i think it was that version). anyways i clicked okay to install it, so i left my phone and came back.
when i looked at it, it just was a black screen and was stuck. I reset it and now i can only go to the stock recovery mode or it just boots up to a black screen.
What can i do? if i plug it into the computer it cant install the MTP driver.
Thanks for your help!

You could have waited for a few mins before taking any action. The OTA update process clearly states that you should not disturb the device and/or use it when the updates are being installed. Looks like its software bricked. Try a reset from the stock recovery. I'm sure nothing would happen, as the OS would have been corrupted. At this point, I recommend you to get it fixed via HTC. :good:

Welcome [emoji6]
So my mom had an LG G3 D850 from at&t. was totally fine, then she updated whatever she had to 6.0 and it started bootlooping. Tried the LG Flash tool with a tot stock firmware. Went through the whole process got the blue screen with the red 3, it restarted, kept bootlooping. Tried it again but then it got stuck on 5% for like 4 hours, unplugged it and now no matter what i do i cant get into download mode. It shows the LG screen then goes straight to firmware update (even if i dont hold vol up) and it says 910K Bxx QEM (the xx changes) I was able to get into recovery mode, recovered it. same thing. Im losing my mind a little bit here so any advice, or pointing me to a tutorial would be greatly appreciated. Ive looked all over the internet and cant find anything helpful apparently the qualcomm thing where you short the motherboard doesnt work for this phone either?
*flips desk*
If it is under warranty .send your phone to at&t to get it fixed.
Its not

Qualcmomm method you are describing is just to bring your phone into download mode. I have done this to my brother's g3. You have to flash using LG flashtool using different settings and then hard reset your phone. If it doesn't solve your problem.try to replace battery and then use custom rom.
tried that

totally forgot to switch to com41, did everything exactly like that. got to the red 3, restarted it, and it still bootloops. i guess ill try a custom rom cause this stock one isnt working.
apparently cant do custom roms either, I got it to boot the the set up screen for 5seconds befores it crashed so i guess im throwing it away cause im sick of looking at it.
