2.2 OTA Failed to update

[debob]

So I've tried 5 different times with the OTA 2.2 update. First time I was rooted using EasyRoot. I figured this could be the problem...so I unrooted and rebooted. Still nothing

I then remembered that I had some files that were changed for the Nexus One theme....

So I changed those back to the original. unrooted again and re-tried...still nothing.

It gets 1/4 of the way through the progress bar on re-boot and comes up with the exclamation point in the triangle. It then reboots and says 'failed to update'

help?

I rolled back using this, and got the OTA just fine.

The 'Start' button in RSD Lite is greyed out??

Make sure you follow the steps EXACTLY. Did you make sure that you put the patch file in? For SBF troubleshooting, refer to that thread.

My phone is not and never was rooted, but I am also stuck on the progress bar 1/4 of the way through. How long should it take ? Hasnt moved in 1/2 hour. Since I was not rooted, should I need to follow the directions here ?

EDIT...... did a battery pull and install completed.

I've had a similar problem. The update downloads fine runs till it reboots the update progress bar gets 1/4 of the way then I get the ! Inside a triangle for a second before out reboots 2.1 and tells me update failed...wtf

I got it to work by flashing back to the .604 SBF...

I don't know what I forgot to change but apparently that works. Now I just need my computer to recognize my phone when I plug it in lol

I have OTA fail 1/2 way throught the progress bar. I unrooted and did a factory reset and still had a fail OTA. I tried flashing back to .604 SBF and get a "Flash Fail" message. I can see the device on line #1 and have entered the path for the sbf into the " " area. I never upgraded but did root and had Clockworkmod and LauncherPro. I am getting a bad feeling about this.

After unrooting, reverting to stock framework and services files AND doing a factory reset, the OTA upgrade finally went through.

Enjoying Froyo now.

TVC: you said you had clockwork mod, you might need to double check that you have completely removed bootstrap. It will cause the updates to fail. Also make sure that any default apps you may have frozen/deleted have been reinstalled.
