Error 407 and 700 appearing after update earlier this week.

[Android Central Question]

It says firmware update unable to be completed. I've tried clearing cache partition and even did a factory reset at t-mobile's suggestion. Still getting errors. A couple of times it has mentioned "profile" rather than firmware.

What device? What Android version? What update? Ultimately, this is for your carrier to resolve but you could try flashing it

Do you see something that says OMADM configuration not completed?

I updated my Note 9 to One UI 2.1 and kept getting this weird notification

 

[GeekyGal20]

It happened (and it keeps happening - found no way to stop it yet) on a Galaxy s10+ after doing the update, after a factory reset.
First it said Android had been updated, and then it said it could not update firmware, error 407. But I also got error 700 sometimes.
Forcing stop OMADM did nothing, as well as clearing cache.
Even setting the retry 2 hours later does not work, as the update restarts when it wants
Both T-Mobile and Samsung customer service offered no helpful suggestions.
Going crazy!
Please help!

It wants to install a software update then get a error?

 

[GeekyGal20]

Yes. Except at first it says Android was effectively updated, and then it says firmware update was not competed, I get one of the two errors [407 or 700], and it constantly keeps retrying to update, and reaching the same error.

 

[Laura Knotek]

Are you trying OTA update or flashing via Odin?

 

[mustang7757]

Yes. Except at first it says Android was effectively updated, and then it says firmware update was not competed, I get one of the two errors [407 or 700], and it constantly keeps retrying to update, and reaching the same error.

Re: software update apps.
I've done it before, and force stop as well. No difference.
Anyway, I did it again now. Cleared cache. Force stop now was not available.
Question: somebody suggested I also clear data in those 2 software update apps - can you tell me which data gets erased by doing that? What do I risk?

No personal data just reset the software update server

 

[GeekyGal20]

No, sorry Mustang 7757. I thought each reply was connected to the message I was answering. I see it's not. I was referring to what Laura Knotek wrote.

You need to do in this order , clear data,cache ,force stop each one

Great. Thanks Mustang 7757 !
I 'll do that as well if I see it starts re-trying to update.
[I found out how to quote ;-) ]
I'll keep the forum posted.

I cleared data on the first Software update app, and then force stop [clear cache was not available].
Clear data and force stop was not available on the second Software update app, so I just cleared cache, and restarted the phone.
As before, it started by updating firmware and at the end I got a message saying "Android update successful", but then, in the notifications I get a message from OMADM saying " Firmware update not completed", i.e. same as before.
I went through the same [clear cache, clear data, force stop for the first Software update app, only clear cache for the second - the other 2 options were not available], without restarting the phone ... will let you know if it starts to update again.

Thanks! Will do all that for OMAD as well.

So basically we have to force stop in order not to be bothered temporarily, and then wait for a new Android update to solve the problem permanently? How long do you think it will take for a permanent fix?
