Oct 24, 2011
Have tried may times in the last two weeks and everytime I get an error that the update failed to install. Below is the error logged when pushing up vol+down vol at the update screen.
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
[Code].....
There has been alot of activity in a post that shows answered so I am starting a new thread as this has not been resolved.
Today is my 13th day of Sprint's 14 day return policy and I will be returning first thing in the morning for a Galaxy S II if not resolved.

So now I still cannot use MMS or carrier internet and the latest software update will not run, it can be downloaded but after running it 12 times it indicates update was unsuccessful. Is there anyway of reflashing the whole phone to start from scratch.

Tried to update yesterday, downloaded and tried to install. Phone reboots and I get an android guy with an exclamation mark. When phone restarts, a notification pops up saying the update was not installed.

I woke up today to find a download in the notification list on my Photon.It was stuck at 14% for a good amount of time, so I powered it off and on again.I came on here and found out that an update had been released so I went into my Settings About phone and tried to update the Motorola Software, and now I'm getting the message in the subject.I've tried Googling the problem, tried clearing caches, etc, but I still can't download the update manually.

I have noticed that the volume is low after last update, when i first got the phonw it was loud and clear. After the update i can hardly here the alamr anymore. My ringtones are low as well, even playing back music. Is anybody else having this issue, any suggestions?.
One more thing, i also tested it out, by going to the sprint store checking the floor model and comparing it to mine, it was way louder and didnt have the latest update.

After the last update to 45.3.6.MB855.Sprint.en.US (4.5.1A-1_SUN-198_6) my 4G signal does not stay active but for a minute then it ZZZ out and/or I lose data. Have to revert to 3G. One time I could not turn it on at all until a reboot. No error messages no other issues.
I guess I'll await the next update but it is annoying. a 4G phone that rarely runs as 4G lately.

in the other thread it was asked that we make individual threads for each ota update error. The one i am experiencing is for the file/system/app/AccountAndSyncSettings.apk failing validation. It claims that the "assert failed" at this file.I just bought this and haven't modded anything or even know how too. I did however buy the lapdock and it will be at my door in a couple days, i really want this update so it works.also it fails with status

I've tried installing the official Motorola update 4 times and every time it is unsuccessful. The update says it is available for download, then downloads and asks to be installed. I choose to install it and the phone reboots. It then goes to the progress screen, gets to about 40%, and then shows the triangle with exclamation mark inside of it. Then the phone reboots and pops up a message saying update failed.
I have done 2 full factory updates (erased all memory), called Sprint, talked to a Motorola level 2 tech, and gotten nothing. No one has even tried to troubleshoot this issue or recommend anything.

why wifi was working when the update came down and now it refuses to work? I press the toggle to turn on wifi and I am greeted with "error" in little letters under it.you managed to actually make this useless to me down here! B/C the SIM/APN issue was screwed up I was running my data over a mifi type device down here and now you've made the phone useless!and yes I have now rebooted multiple times after the "must have update" that you forced onto my phone with no warning?

I have read the discussions to date and it seems there is no answer for this install update problem or I missed it. what the fix is for this and if there isn't one is Motorola working on one.

I just installed the 45.2.7.MB855 update on my Sprint Photon 4G and now both my WiFi and 4G wont turn on. When I go into Wireless & Network Settings and click on WiFi, all it says is Error and nothing happens. When I try to turn in 4G nothing seems to happen.I am able to turn on Bluetooth and 3G took a couple of Profile updates to get working.

I got the OTA update today, and when I downloaded it, my battery was fully charged. When the update was installed and the phone rebooted, the battery was down under 10% and is taking forever to charge. Is this a bad side effect of today's update or did the battery somehow get fried during the update process?

It broke my phone... I can no longer turn on 4G or turn on the wireless. I found this out within 5 minutes of installing the update.I have not played with the phone enough to find out if it broke anything else. I press the buttons, or icons on the screen to turn these on, and they do nothing. I can hold on the icon and it will allow you to move them though

Is there a setting to allow a caller to be heard through the vehicle speakers while not muting the microphone?
The reason I ask is when I connect the Photon to the vehicle navigation dock it defaults the calls to speakerphone (not the vehicle speakers) and if I turn the speakerphone off the caller can be heard through the car speakers BUT the caller cannot hear me.

I have a Photon that I purchased new March 2012 with 45.3.6. I have never rooted however the update to 45.4.13 will not load. I have done factory reset, both from settings and hard reset. It will download the update fine, it just gets the triangle!. At about 1/4 of the way to updating then will restart and say update failed. I have tried more then 10+ times and nothing works. I even took it to 2 different Sprint stores and they couldn't get it to work also. They wanted to charge me to do anything more to the phone. I haven't been able to get the info on holding the volume up and down key, it goes away too fast.

I am using a Photon on Sprint's 3G EVDO network. When I open the Settings application, and click on the option to check for Motorola software update, the following screen is displayed: "Check for update is not available at this time. Try again later." When I am on a Wi-Fi network, a similar message is displayed (no screenshot): "Your device is up to date! No update is necessary at this time." Can somebody please provide more information as to what specifically is causing the message in my screenshot below to appear?

I just wanted confirmation as to whether or not Photon users who are affected by the failed update can utilize the Lapdock 100 still (as one of the things stated in the update was Lapock support). I would figure that we should still be able to use the dock because the other docks have been out for a while now and they too use webtop, however I wanted to be sure before I purchased the dock if possible (as I want to pick up the dock as soon as possible).

So about half an hr ago i got a prompt to update my phone to (45.2.5.en.US) and it installed successfully, then I had problems with WiFi and so restarted my phone, now when I try to access any app that requires WiFi it seems as though it doesn't read it. The browser works fine, but any other app doesn't.

After I update the PRL on this phone my 3G data stops working for anywhere between 1 minute and 5 minutes. It's like the phone completely loses contact with the EVDO network for up to 5 minutes before it wakes up and finds the signal again. Never happened on previous phones. Another firmware bug? Not a big deal but thought it was worth mentioning.

My contacts are updated through CompanionLink with my Palm Desktop. There are duplicates of almost all of the contacts after the sync is completed. To remove the duplicates I use Contact Remover. Each duplicate is reviewed with this program and indicates either "Account Motorola" or Account MyGmail Address.
How do I stop this duplication during every update from my desktop?

After the recent update was push to my phone... My Home applicaion fails to start in an endless cycle. No matter what happens the home application attempts to start and fails. The only way to stop the loop is to just let the phone sit there with error message box displayed.I have wiped and factor reset the device twice and get the same result with the excpetion that now the only way to shutdown the phone is pull the battery.I have another Photon that updated just fine. Is there any hope... Can I download the update to my computer, transfer to update to SD and update via SD card. As of right now I do not know where to get the update from.

I was on Verizon with a Droid 2 when you did the 2.3.3 test a couple of weeks ago. On 10/9/2011 I moved to Sprint and bought a Photon 4G. I just updated my HEX MEID in this forum profile. My phone did the initial reboot but came back with Update Failed.Update Motorola Software says. An Update is currently being downloaded. You will be notified when the download is complete. There is no indication anything is happening. It's been this way for close to an hour now.

Have noticed that my Photon can't seem to hold a WIFI connection. I can be sitting right next to my router, and it will drop the connection and start scanning again. Have noticed the same thing with other wifi connections at work. Also the WIFI connection sometimes goes dormant/gray and won't wake up on its own. The only solution is to turn the wifi connection off/on, or to cycle the power on the router. Not sure if its a setting that kills the connection after a period of inactivity, have looked in the settings but can't seem to find anything. I have had this problem pre and post update, but am frustrated as I've just passed my 30 days to return the phone easily if something is wrong with the phone.

After the motorola update my headphone jack no longer works. When I plugin any type of headphone or cable for my car the phone plays sound though the speaker phone. It was working before the update.

After the latest update I lost my hotmail account and charter account. They are seen in my accounts but nulled out. I can not delete them. Also, if I try to add them back, I have no options anymore for adding email accounts. It only gives options for Facebook, Google, LinkedIn, Lotus Notes, and Skype and the lotus notes and skype is there because I additionally installed that. Does anyone review functions of the phone before they release updates or are we all just Beta testers for Sprint and Motorola. I had just got my phone fixed with all the other issues.

With all due respect, how about someone updating the cycle chart. It's been about 29days now(but who's counting). Seems ICS has been pushed up to Moto XYBoard 10.1; per rumors/leaked info and official sites, etc. They were doing good there for awhile, what happened? Surely the Forum Manager is not responsible for this too!!! Or did Motorola dispose of this part of the team/section too!!!
