Hello everyone,
On my commute this morning, I received a firmware update notification which I postponed until I got to work. I didn't have Wifi at the time so I thought it would be best to postpone until I did.
So I get to work and connect to the Wifi here and try updating but it now says 'no update available.' Strange or what?

people have been reporting in some other threads, they start the update, it fails, and then the update disappears. check through kies.

Thank you sir.
It has worked with Kies, only thing I've noticed is brightness setting is now in the notification bar.
Also, different filters in the stock camera app.
You can ge the telus ota update at samsung-updates.com for those you can not get the ota update to work. It says it is a kies update and it will flash through odin as well. You want to download the one under F for firmware. And the download is very slow. You can also get the update from
samfirmware.com and download is alot faster.

Get your SD card out of phone before trying to update
last time when i tried i had it out of my phone. but didn't work... btw does it have anything to do with the flight mode? i had it on flight mode last time because the instruction says that i cant answer calls. so i did that so that calls doesn't come at the time of updating.
i am stuck. after it has finished downloading stuff a dialogue box appeared saying kies firmware update has stopped working. i had two options one saying stop firmware upgrade and the other saying check online for solution. i went with the second option and the box disappeared. than there was another box titled "prepare for firmware upgrade"... it is saying "preparing firmware upgrade components". it has been more than half an hour but it hasn't been able to finish preparing. what should i do now???
About the firmware upgrading and sdcard problems, I've followed the two suggestions from here and the suggestion to modify cache size from here using SD-Booster (I set it to 2048, not to 2024) and everything is working ok. No more "SD Removed Unexpectedly"
Btw, uninstall and install Kies again to get rid of the error message. Don't forget that it's crucial to remove sdcard before upgrading firmware with Kies.
try to update using odin or you can update using OTA.
sorry for my bad english

I used to get the same error when I was on 2.3.6 KK1
After I upgraded to KL1, my problem was fixed.
Interesting problem - phone continues to say "Software Update Interrupted". Even after manually updating to Android 4.1.2
AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 2
Samsung-sgh-I317
I encounter no problems with my phone, but this phone puzzles me.
Friend tried to update phone - said gave me an error. Phone is not rooted, stock ROM. There was an attempt to unlock the SIM using keypad *#..... I do not know if there were any problems.
I tried
1. Setting date ahead 2 days, 2 months ....
Result: A check for software update returned "Software Update Interrupted"
2. Tried to reflash ROM using Odin to stock
Result: Failed, tried several times - lost connection - tried different USB cable failed
3. Reset phone to factory defalts "
Result: A check for software update returned " Software Update Interrupted"
Update successful by
Manual update: downloaded update.zip to microSD card. Installed update Reboot into recovery (turn phone off, press volume up, center button and power) Install update from external sdcard
Result: Phone is now running 4.1.2 with Mult Window !!!
BUT
A check for Software update results in "Software Update Interrupted"
Should say "Current software is up to date"
Is there some switch that needs to reset?
Is ATT blocking the phone by IMEI?
What is checked when software update is run?
Phone works fine - person does not want to have ATT replace phone with a refurb under the warranty.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Im having this same exact issue.. Had my note 2 for about a month now..When i first got it had no problem with getting OTA update to 4.1.2 but had flash back to stock firmware 4.1.1 via sammymobile because that is latest version they have listed and now me too had to do manual update rom zip via sd card.. Keep getting the software update interrupted.. I just wonder if there update "servers" are having issues? As i say two weeks ago had no issues..
screw it..flash a "custom" stock rom....cleanrom will work fine for you
Or just turn off the updates via tibu or app manager.
You need to turn off:
Att update and FWupdate .
But yeah otas
flash a custom rom and youll forget all about ota.

Want OTA to work again
Custom ROMs are not really a good option. This person still remembers the update to their MPX220, and the Chinese Character set. Simple fix to change the language, but huge impact.
I would really like to get the OTA updates working again, so I can say update your own phone.
----
The OTA update servers are working fine. Works on other notes on same network.
I would really like to know what the OTA update servers are checking for and why they are blocking the update.
Thanks.
I love my "note 2"

yeah, that comment will go over like a fart in church around here. You're comparing some c r a p from ten friggen years ago. You might want to do a little more reading
Have you done a factory reset of the device since the update?
use the stock recovery and reset it. .
The firmware update to UCAMA4 may have corrupted your data.
And does the device show "normal" status. .??
If yes. ..the data wipe should help. ...and wipe cache also. ..g

Can you please give me the link to that download because I tried doing what you said as in going into recovery and flashing a zip update I got from sammobile.com and it didn't work. My Note 2 is stuck on 4.1.1 and gives me that Software Update Interrupted stuff.

I'm not sure what kind of update from Sam mobile is flashed through recovery.
Down load via odin is another matter.
There are update options available for mh3 in the dev section

Sorry do not have the link anymore, it was to an old ROM March/April 2013. I found it on a forum on how to manually push the update via google.
The next update, the girl took it back to AT&T for a replacement.
New phone updates fine.
The FIX - replace the phone sad, since it probably was a software setting.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2458784
Hi guys. So about 1 week ago I finally let my s4 mini I9195 Do the update its been wantng to do for a while. Turns out when the update completed and the phone was turned back on again I couldnt connect to wifi, just press the toggle and it does nothing. So ive been lurking the web for solutions and done around these:
-Taking battery out various times and in diferent situations
-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2364980 did that even though I have no idea what rooting is and such though Ive read about it 1000x , just dont get why you do that or why there are so many ways and such
- wiped cache/ returned to manufacturer settings also a few times
So, by this point I have really no idea how to fix this guys and its been a pain because I am in erasmus and could really use the wifi. I really apreciate your time for reading this thread and hope that you are able to help. Awaiting your sugestions
Thanks
What you're describing is a very typical issue: the firmware wasn't updated completely (e. g. modem not updated). Solution: flash the firmware again with Odin.

Hey man, thanks for the reply. Can you give me a little more info on how to do that procedure?
Search for Odin (v3.09 or so). Check your firmware version and download it at Sammobile.com.
And use the search for further information.

Hey man thanks again for the reply.
I was doing this http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-mini/help/to-stock-firmware-choosing-problem-t2968295 but near the end it fails for some reason... any idea why?
So I tried it again and this just happened.. Kies wont even recognize.

If you are already on Kitkat you need Kies 3.
Have you probably tried to flash an JB firmware?
Search at Sammobile for the latest firmware for your country and network provider and flash it with Odin.
Hi guys,
i have a similar problem. I flash many time a couple of ROM (CM11 - slimkat) but the wifi doesn't turn on and also the cellular network and the bluetooth don't work...
In the last days i had many problem with my phone because i make a mistake during the flash (on odin) of a stock rom.
Do you have any suggestion?
Thanks a lot
I had the same problem. Wi-Fi didn't work after uploading KK firmware for my country (while to my surprise KK firmware for Belgium worked ok). I tried 3 times to upload KK firmware (XEO, anr PLS) via Odin 3.09 with the same effect (no way to turn on Wi-Fi). Then I used Odin 3.06 and it worked for me (I was able to turn on Wi-Fi without any problem - strange but it had worked). So try to use older ver. of Odin first.

You could try a factory reset and see if it pops back up. Im not sure if its tmobile or lg but I hate the update system they have. Sometimes you see it sometimes it takes a month after release.
If I do a factory reset she will loose all her stuff. So she said no to a factory reset

I had the same situation with my LG3.I talked to tech support and because of the bugs with Lollipop and LG phones ,they have taken down the update till they fix the problems
Thanks!
There are other ways to update. Search through the forums and you will find a plethora of info on how to do it. Also check the support site on tmobile, it gives you info on how to update the phone via a computer.
Got a notice of an OTA last night. Figured it was for Lollipop so told it to proceed. Once the tablet rebooted the WiFi radio was disabled. Looked in settings which showed that WiFi was on, but no radio. Went online an saw that Samsung hasn't sent out the Lollipop update for the 10.1.
Question 1 - how do I restore my tablet since I can't get WiFi turned on?
Question 2 - where did this weird OTA come from?
Thanks for any help you can give.

Others having same issue
Thought I'd post this as info. Checked over at Android Central and several people appear to be having the same issue. Looks like bad firmware from Samsung. Bad build number is: KOT49H.T520UEUAOD1. Wiping and factory refresh may help temporarily, but eventually the wifi radio will be disabled. I'm going to wait for Samsung to get their act together and flash a fresh build when it's released.
Thanks for the help.

My 10.1 Tab Pro was updated too but wifi is working fine. I'm not rooted though. Same build number that you mentioned.

Wifi Issue as well
I had the same update come across last night and now I can't connect to wi-fi to save my life. Really pissed off. Done 2 factory resets already, reset my modem at home, turns out it happens everywhere and not just at home. Wifi says it's on but doesn't pick up any networks in my area and won't connect to the 1 that is already known on my tab. PLEASE HELP
Got the update last week. Wifi is fine but now daily I get a random reboot. Never had any problems before. Thanks Sammy!

You can download an earlier firmware from sammobile.com. If you are in the US, use the firmware for cellular South and make sure it's a 4.4.2 that you are downloading. After you download it, you can flash it with Odin. There are several threads here on xda that describe this process. If you still need further help, post again.
TabPro 10.1 SM-T520, v4.4.2 Build KOT49H.T520UEUAOD1 No wifi after update
Boy am I glad to find you guys with the same problem as I have. Couple of days ago I saw an update message and decited to go for it. Well, as all of you know, wifi stops working. Factory resets gets it working again but once everything is restored it stops working again! This is quite frustrating and I hope Samsung is working on a fix right now. I haven't been on XDA for a while and only rooted phones before. So how is the rooting/mod scene for tablets. Any good Custom Roms out there we can use until/when this is resolved? I'm good with directions and done some custom roms on my phones before. Let me know what's the good ROMS out there are...the bloatfree version is a welcome even without KNOX, I don't really use it.

Thanks for your feedback.
I had to use the firmware from November 2014 to get it to work and restore my wi-fi.
Again thanks
KOT49H.T520UEUAOD1 is the problem
Well I figure this particular firmware has a problem. Because even after factory reset, wifi works once and goes back to not working. So the best solution is to get an earlier version. I went back to Sep 15, 2014 version and it works well. Took forever to download from sammobile though. So if you need to flash to a previous version that works. I have post a link to the firmware I have on my OneDrive that got it working again, hopefully it will be faster for you to get your tablet working again. Here is a link. This is for the US Tab Pro 10.1 SM-T520.

thank you for those who warned about the wifi problems this OTA introduced. I'm just going to keep ignoring the tablets request to update. I thought i got a great deal on this tablet when i got a refurbished one for under $300 several months ago... but samsungs lack of support for this tablet is astonishing.
