You left out the more important information. What device? Is it branded/International? What's the CID? Did you look for an OTA.zip from the updates thread for your device?

Do a factory reset.
Settings / Backup & reset / Reset phone / Erase all data
After the reset the phone will prompt you with the update again.

You must use adb commands and put your device in fastboot mode.
Open a command prompt : Type : adb devices, if you see a serial number type this : adb reboot bootloader, after that type : fastboot getvar all.

Shut off your phone and then Hold Volume Down + Power until it boots into fastboot mode. You'll clearly see the CID written there. Unless you flashed a custom recovery you should also see the software version your device is running "OS-x.xx.xxx.x" . Just tell me what software version you have and what CID you have.
OTA.zip is the OTA file you downloaded. Since you for one or other reason stopped yours it's not fully downloaded yet. I don't know where a partial download for it will be held. You can try and look in the downloads folder on internal storage if it's there. If it is, delete it and try to do the update again. If it doesn't work then your best bet would be to download the OTA.zip file from the update thread and install it manually.

[Q] How To Recover an OTA Update on HTC One X?

Hello,
I have received an HTC One X and I had an OTA update yesterday (France) but some of my friends not. So I want to know how can I cover this update and share it?
Thanks for your help.
Flow.
Okay this OTA update was a Nvidia Update and only for previous test HTC One X so I can't share it :/
End of this topic
Was is the 4.107 update? Why would you want to undo that?
I don't really know, this is the update talked on this thread:
http://www.htc-hottocome.com/2012/04/video-le-htc-one-x-est-en-train-de.html

Upload it and give link.
The file is in Download folder.
thanks i am looking for
Nothing in download file
It seems to be a Nvidia update, so maybe customer who have bought the phone soon already have this one :/
you should post it on the dev section of the htc one x. you would probably have quicker answer over there
okay thanks.
How can I change the place? I need ask a moderator?
Download a file explorer.
Most of the times the update.zip is in the root of de storage and not in the download map.
But if you already have installed the OTA, the OTA.zip is probably deleted
So please check root directory of storage and report.
So you got the 1.27 OTA or the 1.28 OTA?

If he received the same update as in the video it will be 1.27.. i thought 1.28 was supposed to be released instead of the 1.27 ? (which was for reviewers only?)

Next time when you get a notification. download the file, save it to computer and then run update please!
yup. You can get the address for the update and download it direct to your PC.
When the update appears, connect to the PC and run the following command
Code:
adb logcat > log.txt
then tap the update button.
Once the update has started downloading, you can kill the logcat with a ctrl+c.
check the logcat for a webaddress (just search for http://) and you'll have the download link.
you can then either post the link, or the file itself.
As he said, he won't share it
OTA update booting to fastboot
Hello,
I'm a bit of a novice.
I rooted my phone, then re-locked it.
I'm on Orange UK, firmware 1.28.061.9
I have been getting notifications of the new 1.29 update, but when I download it OTA, the phone reboots to the HTC white screen (see attachment).
I tried all options on the white screen, but I can't install the update.
What can i do?
Thank you
You need to flash the stock recovery before update.

*Unbranded* UK One X owners, 1.29 update via download, explained for noobs

Info taken from the 1.29 update thread. I am posting this seperately to avoid repetitious requests. Big thanks to EddyOS for this :thumbup:
This will wipe your phone of all apps & updates, however, saved data will remain i.e. save games
Download the latest HTC Sync
Download the Europe 1.29 RUU update http://cxsr.eu/pubftp/onex/RUU_END...adio_1.1204.104.14_release_259281_signed.exe
Charge the phone to 100%
Turn phone off (make sure fast boot is off in Settings>Power)
Turn on holding volume down
Press power to get to FASTBOOT
Connect to PC
Make sure Windows installs the right drivers (they come as part of HTC Sync)
Once Windows has installed the drivers, start the RUU
Follow the instructions
Before you try above may want to give this ago.
- Like your making a call *#*#2432546#*#*
- Once completed
- settings
- about

checkin is always running anyway. This is just a placebo that HTC customer service give people to get them to disconnect.
As for the RUU update, you forgot to add the disclaimer that it wipes the phone.
That's me updated, took about 10 minutes

Can I use this to flash an unbramded rom onto a branded Optus Australia rom?
Couple of noob questions. As I am noob at stuff like this. Do I need to be rooted? And will the rest of the instructions be in that download link or what? Thanks in advance

You run the RUU and once it's finished you can delete it - entirely up to you (but I'd keep it safe in case you need it)
If you're on x.xx.206.x then you can't use this anyway as you have a branded o2 handset - this is ONLY for unbranded users currently running x.xx.401.x
I followed what you said. but now it wont let me download from google play it just keeps saying error! help!

if your device is unlocked ( not branded by your operator ), you need to power off the device. power it on by pressing both volume up& down + power button. You will see a screen with barcodes and other details. after that connect the device to your computer and open the RUU

you should try to push the correct build.prop via the adb. then all should work. and don't put OPEN in build.prop you should put spr (small letters)

you still have custom recovery? if yes, adb side load sprint rom from the sprint development section, then flash it (make sure it flashes successful) Now, your phone should be a sprint g2 again. Now try flashing stock sprint rom via lg flasher tool. It should work now.

updating through lg flasher tool, will not work. Because, it would think your lg isn't a sprint one anymore. so, first check if you have root, then flash custom recovery via this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449670
then, once you have custom recovery, flash an sprint rom from sprint development section. Also, to do this you need basic ADB knowledge which isn't that difficult.

rooted for first time and removed com.lge.sui.widget now settings not working, help

Hey im new here!
I've had my G3 a while and today i decided to root it and try to install cyanogenmod. So the root went fine i rooted with Kingroot (blue white crown logo) it went fine and it said phone is rooted. but i got stuck a little bit after that when trying to unlock bootloader and kind of advanced stuff like that I downloaded the app ''System app remover (ROOT)'' just to try out some awesome root stuff.
I removed a couple of pre installed programs and files (com.lge.sui.widget was problably then only was that was bad to remove) and now i cant access settings ( little window appearing saying ''Unfortunately settings has stopped working" and my widgets does not work at all. I tried to unroot the phone again with SuperSU but it just says it needs update (which is not working). And root checker says my phone is till rooted, so.
I saw this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/help/removed-com-lge-sui-widget-bricked-t3145799 and i wonder is this working (flash kdz)? And then i saw this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVLd-HlqveE and it seems quite easy so will this help?
There is another problem i tried to factory reset phone (hard reset when power on it) and i just does not work, when i press yes on everything i shows lg logo BUT with terminal up at the left corner and it says something with error Boot cerification only error and then screen just turns black, and light start blinking red and blue ( it stop when i press volume+ tho?).
After this i can't boot until unplug and plug battery in again then i can boot normally.
So do you guys think this will work? :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVLd-HlqveE or some of this http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/help/removed-com-lge-sui-widget-bricked-t3145799?
And lg has no official firmware to get it fully factory STOCK or repair software or anything like that?
I guess i should not have tried rooting and stuff att all, it all seems so difficult
I've got an d-855
Thanks
Looks like you were on lollipop and tried to install twrp via twrp manager or flashify?
What state is your phone now? If you can´t boot to android (you should be able to boot..) try holding volume up and connect to pc, see if it loads download mode(software upgrade mode)

So i should download this KDZ file then: http://storagecow.eu/Xda/LG G3/Stock/D855/Europe D85530B_00_1217.kdz? My android version i lollipop i believe but im not entirely sure. I downloaded app ''My android'' and it said lollipop 5.0 so i guess it is. Then i just use the software and follow instructions/the yt video? Thanks.
This one is Marshmallow. If you tend to have a rooted device without custom recovery(twrp) then I would stick with lollipop version 20(20a, b,..., up to 21a)
But marshmallow should provide smoother transitions and overall system performance and features. You can revert at any time.
