Received an F/W update from Samsung Yesterday!!! India - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
Im on the Official ICS ROM INDIA...4.0.3 DDLP4
Yesterday, when i checked kies, there was an update waiting (No Update on OTA). The downloading of firmware was taking ages to download(3.2mbps connection) and after about 70 percent the downloading stopped and Kies said "Connection stopped"....
Any body who has downloaded the F/W can you please post the change log (If you find any).. I mainly wanna know, if the laggness of the lock screen and slowness to open contact's and capturing pics has been rectified.

Ah glad that i have company.sad at the same time!! Even i have the same problem after the 7mb OTA update. The andriod process closes often and hangs the phone.The phone was literally unusable. Hence i tried to install custom gingerbread rom on it. Now its almost completely bricked.How irresponsible is samsung to roll these things out without testing it thoroughly.
***PLEASE DON'T INSTALL THE 7MB ICS OTA UPDATE***
hopefully we can save some.

I also tried to update through OTA but it was failed and message popped up that do update through Kies. Now I got update through Kies and my firmware changed from DDLP4 to DDLPA. However I lost Root.

I also received the update notification. Downloaded the 7.8 mb update within a minute and asked for reboot. Everything worked fine and nothing special noticed. It just changed the build no. from IML74K.DDLPA to IML74K.DDLP8

you mean LP8 to LPA? check your kernel version date. if it shows 12 June then fine, else your kernel has not been updated.

Hey guys basically its stability update. my phone feels much smoother now. i updated OTA via wifi, i also faced update not installed issue and i found out the problem, basically we all root our device that means we change SU binaries so when updating phone OTA it checks for those binaries and if these binaries are not official OTA update get aborted. i solved this problem like this,
1) I have downloaded STOCK LP8 firmware from samobile.com when it released
2) As my phone is rooted my SU binaries are changed so OTA update is aborted.
3) So FLASHED Stock rom LP8 from PC ODIN which kept my all DATA, APPS intact i just lost my root and some mods like 15toggles status bar and so..
4)then i started updating my phone using S/W update in settings, its 7.85MB file.
5)In few minutes my phone is updated to LPA
6)Now i again rooted my phone and my all data apps are intact and mob is much improved in stability.
Hope this will help you guys.

kernel is definitely updated in LPA. just flash LPA ROM file using Odin.
I also agree with what mullarameez has pointed out. rooting might be the reason for kernel being skipped. because if u flash LPA with odin you will lose root and hence get the new kernel.

Is there a way to update Kernel without flashing the whole 650 mb rom?

with all the issues in ICS, i think it would be safest if you would flash using the whole LPA ROM. I know its a pain to download but worth it in the end.

OMG! just a 7Mb update took 2hrs to download.. Hmmmm...
My main prob was with Lock screen, camera and contacts.. Noting has been resolved on this new Update!!!

what is the issue? is it lag?

This is confusing..
I have everything stock on my phone..All updates done OTA since i bought the phone..Not rooted..
Still the kernel says 12 May after the 7mb update..Why?? Although the deep sleep issue (sore point for me) seems to have been resolved after this update...
PS: The build info after *#1234# says 12 June, if that matters..

yes, almost all the users who updated OTA have the same issue. you may flash the new LPA using PC Odin from doc's post (anyways you're not rooted so no problem)

[Q] Custom ROM - 'We want ICS' OTA?

There was a system update yesterday but I didnt know whether to flash it. It was a mere 5.36 MB so I decided to flash it anyway. The phone rebooted and took me straight to the android exclamation screen and stayed there for a while. I had to hard reset my phone in order to get it up. No problem since then but when I checked for software updates again in settings it shows me that an install is pending. Do I install it again. Anyone else faced a similar issue? Also how did I get this OTA. Obviously I am on a custom ROM and it clearly shows OTAs disabled in the final update as shown in the link below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1686583
OTA is not disabled in the v3 rom, I also I have received the update, is an official update one S which is the basis of the nik ROM when flashing the update that damages everything so you do not have to do

ICS 4.04 OTA update - random reboots

Wife's Note informed her of an OS update today which is the first update since the initial OTA push of ICS. The original GB ROM rebooted randomly, the first OTA version of ICS was stable with no reboots. Since the update to 4.04 (60MB download) she's having reboots again. Three times today already. Anybody else having this problem, or in fact is it a recognised issue?

I think you have to use pc odin to reflash the official stock rom. DONT WIPE AND FACTORY RESET ON ICS.

[Q] how to install the latest samsung update?

Hi all,
I have speedmod kernel, default samsung 4.1.2 /N7000XXLS0 / JZ054K.N7000ZSLM5 rom.
It has crappy GPS and it gets Laggy so when Samsung update said there was an 80MB update available I was like: Wooohooo! thought it might fix my issues.
I let it download but when it restarted it was in Clock work mod.. and I lost the update.. Samsung won't let it download again and now says phone modified...
Where would the update service put the file it downloaded? Is there an update newer than my details listed below? If I can find the file, how would I go about installing it?
Sorry for all the questions, but constantly losing the GPS connection is really causing me issues.. The lag isn't great either.

check for latest firmware on sammobile.com and download the file from there and flash using pc odin
you wont be able to install OTA updates on a phone which has custom recovery. flash a stock kernel and try again

Official software update keeps failing

I am running the official Samsung JB 4.1.2
and every couple of weeks i get a reminder to run a Software Update (37.22 MB)
All it says is "Improved stability"
When i install it it seems to go ok but after it reboots the phone says "Failed to update firmware, try again using PC software (Kies) or visit a samsung service centre"
I then get another reminder approx a couple of weeks later to install it again. This has been going on now for a couple of months.
anyone know why this update wont install.
Are you rooted with a custom kernel? If yes then you can't install OTA. Kies will help you update easily.

[Q] Moto X XT1092: 5.0.2 System update getting failed.

I am not sure why it is happening with but i am not able to install 5.0.1 (12 MB) update on my Moto X 2014. I have unlocked bootloader and phone is rooted running on 5.0 Lollipop firmware.
Baseband Version:
MSM8974BP_4125.184.08.27.01R
VICTARA_EMEA_CUST
System Version
22.21.19.victara_reteu.retailuall.en.EU retin
It downloads the update file.
Reboot the device.
Goes into recovery and show me that it's installing the update. Half way on the progress bar the phone reboots.
After booting I see message which tells me that System update installation is failed. It does not give an error message or reason.
I tried installing it multiple times but same results. Any help will be appreciated.
To add Motorola Device Software updater shows me that my firmware doesn't have any available updates. Whereas i am getting regular notifications to run system update.
I attached screenshot of Motorola Device Software updater.
You should be happy, i had exact same config, and had soft brick when trying to upgrade. I believe you can't do the update if you are rooted. So you must flash stock back and then update.

My phone keeps displaying that i have pending system update. What is the right way to get the update without bricking your phone?
After your update i am not going to try any workaround methods to force upgrade. But this is something that should be well explained by Motorola or Android community somewhere on internet. I think need to wait till the time more helpful resources are available.

i think just flashing back the stock system partition using fastbot should do it. I haven't done this myself though, i needed to completely reflash stock

I am facing the exact same problem.
I am currently on 22.21.19.victara_reteu.retailuall.en.EU and the update notification I am getting is for 22.121.1
I have an unlocked bootloader but the phone is not rooted.
I do not agree that OTA update doesn't work when phone has an unlocked bootloader and is rooted. The Android 5.0 update got installed on my phone when it was already rooted (I lost root access after the update).
Still looking for solution for "OTA installation failed" problem though...

So far My 5.0.1 update never got downloaded and i was not able to update the phone using Motorola update. Therefore i flashed Cyanogenmod 12.1 which has latest Android build. This way i stopped annoying alerts of system update on my phone.
