Downloading the recovery from the link posted on the first page.
Any idea on what to do next after the download is complete?
Flash it via fastboot

I believe there is also an unrooting method for this. Unroot, and try the OTA again?

Doomlord's method is easy enough to unroot Do a web search and you should find the tool.

Assuming that you were only rooted and made no mods, the root wasn't the issue. Several people had issues with the XT912 when ics came out for it. I suggest wiping your cache partition and trying the update again.

You need to fastboot back to gingerbread, then do the ota update again.

It's stuck in a boot loop. You need to wipe that ROM and reinstall with another. Don't forget to install TWRP 2.6.1+.
I recommend the CM11 nightlies. Video streaming finally works!

Read the guides. You shouldn't do something without reading up on the basics of flashing.

Very, very nice! Thanks for capturing the OTA! I'd be glad to help you in the uploading process. Perhaps a good place to upload it would be DevHost or Google Drive? Feel free to let me know if you need help doing so. Once it's uploaded, I'll be sure to update the story I put out earlier on this update: http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...6-update-finally-rolls-out-to-att-htc-one-m7/

It's supposed to be. I got the update from my wife's phone which was able to update, but when I tried to apply it to my phone (which won't download the update) with recovery, I get a Check CID Failed and my phone reboots. All you can do is try and see if it works.

Nope, it's just the Sense 6 update, everything on your phone is safe.

OTApkg does not wipe the phone like a RUU... your sdcard and data are safe
If you do have to RUU back to stock be sure and backup everything as it will wipe the phone.

Ok, I thought so. Unfortunately, I'm getting errors. The OTA just fails on its own, and flashing this zip in recovery does too. It says there is a data error in the file or that there is a problem with buil.prop.
I've tried the latest CWM touch, CWM standard, Recovery_Cingular_US_3.17.502.3.img, andrecovery_m7_att_stock_1.26.502.12.img. I've tried clearing cache and dalvik first, mounting system, and even toggling signature verifcation.
Was going to try temp un-rooting (via SuperSU) next. Hoping I don't have to flash the RUU and start from zero. Any other suggestions?
I'm s-off, htc-dev unlocked.
Added screenshots of install after new download of zip and temp un-rooted, install after mounting system, install after toggling verification. build.prop is definitely in system.

Got it. So in what case would flashing the zip actually work without having to RUU and get the OTA?

This OTA Update Works with ATT-4.18.502.7-Stock-Rooted-ODEX ROM?
Thanks!
Hey,
I have a Galaxy Note I717M under bell, running complete stock, and recently, it just decided it doesn't want to turn on anymore.
I can still access download mode and recovery mode, but when I try to boot into system I get stuck at the samsung logo.
Is my phone soft bricked? Am I able to flash a new rom and move on? If so, am I able to recover all my data that's currently on the phone?
Thanks in advance!

In recovery mode do a factory reset first see if this solves the problem.
yes you can still flash ROMs.
if not flash stock ROM or custom ROM.
press thanks if I helped you.

Looks good, but judging by the end of that post, the phone needs to be working because it'll ask me for a password on the device at some point?

I guess its for encryption of the data, try once and see it may work
As you are stock on everything
its the only way out.
try to do these steps in fastboot mode it won't be any problem most probably.
Since 2 weeks there is this Removed Apps file or application is deleting whatsapp on the device and now all the devices are infected With The same Problem And also all the Phones At the home Get Powered off the same time.
If anyone Knows the solution To it kindly Tell will highly be appreciated.

Are you on fully stock firmware? Is your bootloader locke?
It can’t be a virus. Viruses would be gone by factory resets. What happens if you click on one of those weird apps? Do you see them in your app list? If so, what is their package name?
