So I just got a new S9 and I was installing all the updates until Baseband version: G960USQS3BRK2 (December security patch) the last available update before Pie which I'm holding off updating to. The G960USQS3BRK2 update installed but afterwards I got an error saying "software update failed, that it will revert to last update and to send the error report" but when I check my software information it shows that G960USQS3BRK2 was installed. Also I noticed that I can't view "last update information" under software update to see update details. Is this because it failed? Usually I can see the details there. I haven't experienced any issues with the phone yet but I'm not sure what I should do. I just got done setting up everything and I'm not sure if I should just leave the phone as is or perform a factory reset (if that would even help). I provided screenshots of what i'm talking about. Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

A few days ago I've installed the unofficial CM9 on my dear old buzz, precisely the 2012.09.20 version from this thread by ErwinP. Almost immediately the OTA (off-the-air?) updater informed me that an update is available.
A few details: even if the current CM9 buzz snapshot is marked as 2012.09.20 the OTA says it is 2012.08.18; this has been explained by one of the mantainers as being normal. FOr the same reason, the update is marked as 2012.08.30, but I did not worry about it.
Anyway, whenever I try to download the update after a few seconds I get a notify message "md5 error - downloaded file invalid!" and stops. If I then browse the SD card I find an "OTA updater/download" directory, which is empty.
My question is: is this behaviour normnal, i.e. because of the ROM being unnoficial it does not have OTA updates? Am I the only one experiencing this problem?
Thank you in advance
Don't download the update - you have a newer version than that. OTA updates are meant to work, but since the build.prop hasn't changed (it's hard to change) than it will always display an older version and want you to update.
Hey folks,
I rooted my GS3 right after I got it and everything has been functioning fine. I actually like the stock ROM so I have stuck with it and just removed the bloat. Recently an OTA update was released and I followed an article on putting my updater back to stock to receive the OTA update. I tried updating but it was unable to complete. Now when I go into software updates there is an option that says "continue update" that is grayed out. Is there a workaround to this or do I need to flash back to stock, receive the new update and reroot? If that's the case a link to a walk through would be appreciated. Thanks
anyone?
I was able to get to 4.1 successfully with kies this morning
Hi there,
yesterday I received an update Notification on my german Note2 4.1.2 N7100XXDLK7 (rooted)
It said something about security and stability and I think 22 MB
I confirmed and the device showed me a notice, that it will reboot and install the update. But after my O.K. another window popped up, that checked for updates. After that nothing happens and I have to cancel that window after some minutes.
From now on the update notification will frequently pop up, but it will never complete.
I disabled "check for updates" in the settings and rebooted, but it doesn't help.
How can I either complete the update or cancel it for good?
Greez,
Dirk.

Update with Kies or better yet flash the whole rom with Odin from this website www.sammobile.com/firmware.

Ah. Thnx.
Used Kies and rooted afterwards.
Worked great
Hi all. At 4:20 AM PDT (the notification sys 8:20AM for some reason) this morning (June 12) my Note 4 buzzed and woke up and let me know there was a software update available. Any idea what this is?
I didn't install the small security update last month yet, is this just that update trying to be more forceful (the notification will not go away)? Or is it a new update?
Try it, and let us know what it is !
I didn't install last month's security update myself for the fear of losing that slim chance of an unlocked bootloader and root..lol
I haven't received a notification about an update this month..would you happen to have a description of the update?
Well, the notification wasn't going away and I accidentally hit continue and it rebooted and installed whatever it was.
Took it's sweet time installing and then optimizing apps, and as far as I'm aware nothing changed. Same baseband, same kernel, same build number (LMY47X.N910AUCU2DOI3) according to About Device.
Also my phone is starting to show me the same annoying screen that started appearing when the security update came out saying to connect to wifi to download another update (whatever update was installed today, it downloaded itself via mobile, not wifi).
So I am rather confused as to what the 'update' I installed was.
I downgraded my EVR-29 from 10.1 down to 9.0 using Hisuite. This was in order to try brute force until I realised it took something like 50,000+ years I forgot the exact number.
So instead I thought I'd go back to 10.1 but boom my OTA is broken and it says 9.0 is the latest official version. I remember even in 9.1 and 10 it showed I have updates pending. But when I went to 9.0, no more updates available.
I can't seem to use dload method because it always fails. Using Hisuite proxy method also either fails or says group version not match. Hisuite proxy method did allow me to get upto 9.1 but I'm just stuck there now.
Please help
