[Q] Downloading update package stuck on 0% - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi y'all!
I am one of that dozen people who own a Verizon Ellipsis 7 tablet.
Ever since last night I got a message on my tablet saying "downloading update package " but it doesn't do anything and it's just stuck on 0 %.
I reset my tablet several times and I also did a factory reset. Neither of these worked.
why am I having this issue and what can I do to solve it?

Same problem.
Have you found any help with this? I have the same issue. Clicking on the download does nothing and there is no way to cancel it. I do find that it drains the battery to the point that I can't have it unplugged and use it. Did you call verizon or anyone for technical support? I have not as been working and just don't want to call and have them make me repeat everything I have already tried.

download update package stuck on 0%
I just got off the phone with Verizon and they had me turn off my WiFi and leave the mobile data usage on. Turn the tablet off and back on and my downloadad the update. I guess leaving the WiFi off is the trick to download.
Hope this helps

fixed
Ya me too and was coming back to let others know. You have to turn off wi-fi . I didn't have to reboot it start as soon as turned it off. Odd to make a major update force you to use mobile. Guess Verizon wants to make sure only subscribers get to update. Just one more way they figured out how to screw their customers.

[Q] Vibrant (Bricked) Not working-Reboot Loop

I have never posted here before though I troll and check out what is going on about my Vibrant often and have not seen this directly answered yet, so here goes.
I downloaded and installed the official froyo the other day from Kies Mini.
I have never attempted to even boot in recovery mode.
I have never attempted to root, rom or anything that you amazing people somehow figured out.
OK, so that should help get us somewhere to start.
I noticed today that my notification bar showed the signal as the 0/ (i don't know how to place that symbal correctly) as no signal. I let it go for a few minutes because sometimes Tmobile loses signal in my building. I noticed it outside on break and I tried to reboot. It rebooted but kept rebooting. I removed to battery and its still kept rebooting after letting it sit without the battery. I tried rebooting in recovery mode and deleting the cache memory (don't want to delete user info yet unless that is my only option to get fully reset) and its still rebooting.
Basically after I rebooted the first time, its runs slowly at the S, finally gets into the homescreen, shows signal (but none of my apps, no screen responses at all, just vibrates a few times while switching from no signal to signal) then reboots.
I am pretty much at a loss here. Would love any helps I can get.
Bump, please I don't mean to be annoying, but is this something I am going to have to revert to factory on? I saw someone else had a bricked phone after download and reboot constantly like me. Ugh, to wait so long for Tmo and now this??
The BEST thing to do, if you havent modded, or rooted is to take it to yor local t-mobile store if you have one. If not, call customer support and have them send a replacement.

[Q] Phone Crashing

Yesterday my battery died half way through playing a game (not entirely unexpected, I'd been playing on my phone quite a bit that day and it still lasted 22-23 hours), I connected the charger that came with the phone and left it to charge while I got on with some uni work.
The phone vibrated to tell me the charge was complete so I disconnected the charger and turned the phone on as usual. After the samsung galaxy S2 splash screen, the screen lock appears and when I move it there are several error messages saying that various applications have had to stop (the main one seems to be TwLauncher but when I force close it, many others also force close). This continues for several seconds until the phone decides to restart itself and repeats the process ad infinitum until I can shut down the phone (I can manage this by not trying to get rid of the screen lock and just holding the power button until the menu appears).
I've had this phone a week (one of those days being today where it did not work at all) so it's still well within the return period but I was wondering if there is an obvious fix that I'm missing.
If not, I'll be ringing Samsung on Monday (I have coursework due for friday so I'll be devoting my samsung office hours time to that) and if they can't give me an easy fix I'll be ringing the place I bought it from and asking for an exchange.
So, has anyone else had similar issues and managed a simple fix?
Bump, I take it everyone else's phone is working then?
Giving this another bump in the hopes there's someone with a simple solution.
I don't want to have send my phone off and wait for the place to get stock.
there have been 2 firmware releases from samsung in the last couple of days, i assume you are running the latest firmware?
I can't even get the phone to stay on long enough for Kies to recognise it. It keeps restarting. Even when it was working I couldn't get Kies to work with it properly (I couldn't copy the contacts from the phone to the computer).
It's running the firmware it came with, but I can't check which version it is.
I was going to try flashing the new firmware via ODIN but I've been busy with coursework. Is this likely to solve the issue or will I just be giving the retailers ammo to reject my return?
go into recovery and do a factory reset

this is what I was looking for.
after googling, this sorted it out.
I just assumed download mode was the only other non-normal mode.
Thanks
Basic FAQs on the SGS1 forum mostly apply to SGS2 .Worth a look there before Google .

Titans resets itself

like its said in the title, my titan resetet itself twice! without any obvious reason.
the first time the titan didnt react to anything so i removed the battery, when i startet it again -> get started stuff
the second time i just turn the titan off when i restarted -> get started
its pretty anoying and i wanted to know if anybody has the same problem or knows an answer
thx
Memory full ?
What your device memory nearly full or about 8GB full ? Some devices have a bug when this happens. The last deployed firmware resolved the issue for me.
mhm im not sure how much was full but it could be...
i will do the update and see if it solves the problem
thx for the tipp
edit: great ive wanted to update my phone but during the process it fails. at the point when the phone is restarting my pc doesnt recognice it anymore...
zune is waiting for the phone to restart and the phone shows this "connect phone to pc" screen but nothing happens...
You can try to update your firmware with the lastest version with a recovery tool here:

It worked for me but you'll loose all your data.
ok thx i will wait a few days and look for driver updates mabay this will fix it and i can update the normal way but thx
My phone keeps shutting off and I barely have anything on it. Pretty annoying, thought it was a defective phone, not sure after reading this.
edit: after doing a factory reset my phone is still shutting off. Going to get a new replacement today.
I read on another thread that cleaning SIM card and reseating it solves that. Hope this is not too late to help others.
Any similarities to this?

I just had my first reboot for my Titan. Incoming call but no sound. Hung up, and the phone immediately rebooted. First and only time it did that. Hopefully it was an isolated incident.
FYI: I have about 4GB free on my phone. No other issues.
i think some of you getting it wrong. my titan doesnt reboot it reset itself like a hard reset, everything is gone and i have to go trough the whole settup again...
this happened twice altough it havent happened in the last days i want to update my phone but its impossible for me right now because when my phone restarts during the update process zune doesnt recognise it anymore.
ive already deletet and reinstallt the driver and i ran the official microsoft fix without any sucess

Mine did this twice this week. I think is something with network connection.
Everytime I took it from pocket or car, turned it on and call in seconds.
Sometimes I got restarts while using the bluetooth connected to my car.
Something it not good with HTC radio.

HTC Titan resetting itself out of nowhere..??
My Titan reset itself for the 1st time yesterday.. it froze first so i couldn't power it down I had to take the battery out, only thing is I have all my stuff (music, pictures, text messages..) u get the point. So after that happened and i pulled the battery out and put it back in and powered it up some of my apps were uninstalled and when i went over a screen to my apps i noticed something that said "applications install" or something like that, i had never seen it before. I uninstalled the mysterious app or watever it was and now when i try to open my people block on the start screen to find contacts it wont work.. wont open at all!!! this is the 2nd titan ive had and im totally confused as to what going on. I did unlock it with an unlock code. I dunno if that has anything to do with it.. Can anyone shed any light or should i just count my losses and trash it! it also deleted my email accounts in settings when i powered it off then on again.. I dunno if its a bug or wat, but im pissed tf off!! hellppppp!

Mobile hotspot randomly stopped working?

Edit: just realized I posted in the wrong area. Feel free to move it. Sorry about that.
Everything was fine until my phone died last night. Upon restart, Hotspot would turn on, but no other devices showed it as available to connect to. Like it wasn't even on. Did a little research and tried the many suggestion about soft reset, pulling battery while running, holding power for 30 seconds while battery removed, etc....all to no avail. My hotspot still won't actually show up in a WiFi list. So I started looking for a stock Verizon Hotspot apk with no luck. I don't have any backups done, either. It's been rooted with Kingroot. Tried to flash a different recovery on it and almost bricked it a few times. It actually got stuck in a boot loop at one point but I got it working in a few minutes. This was 3 months ago when I rooted it.
So has anyone seen this before? Is there a fix? Am I looking at a factory reset? It's not hard. I know lol. It's just doing everything to get prepared to reset and then the anxiety over wondering if you missed any backups or if there were any files that were forgotten lol. Hoping it's an easy fix. Been using Bluetooth tether for now but I'm not sure how much longer I can do that. 1 hour? Maybe 2? lol. thanks!
New issue. Cant do a factory reset. I get a big yellow caution triangle saying use software repair to fix. I assume it's got something to do with the recovery I tried to flash. If I could get that sorted out I could wipe the phone. I did set everything else back to stock with no help. So how do I fix the recovery system? Flash stock recovery back on it?
Edit: I tried to search for this info yesterday and couldn't find it. Ironically, I came across it today while looking at something else. I just need to flash a stock OF1 and start over. Or that's what the info said that I found. Hoping it cures my Hotspot issue. I can't believe it just stopped working because my phone died.
1 more question. Can I extract the recovery.img from a stock OF1 build and just use flashify to flash it instead of converting back to tar for Odin?
Just to give this an ending and In case anyone else has this issue, it's solved. I had Verizon suspend and reconnect my hotspot service and it cleared out whatever was keeping me from broadcasting a signal or however it works. I'm my opinion, the system thought I was still connected when my phone died. Resetting my hotspot reset the system. That's about the best explanation I could come up with as I know zero about this stuff.
Anyway. It's fixed. Terminating Hotspot service and reinstating cleared whatever issue was causing the problem. Hopefully this can help someone else in the future. I only figured it out after a bunch of testing and logical reasoning.

WIFI & BLUETOOTH "Connection Not Allowed"

So I have completely given up on my LG G5 for 5 months and today I decided to see if maybe I could get it updated to Nougat to see if it would fix the battery drain I was having. I couldn't get that far. Now the WiFi and Bluetooth say Connection not allowed and I can't connect to my home wifi of course. Well I decided to check the MAC Address to see whats going on. My current MAC Address is 02:00:00:00:00:00. Something doesn't seem right about that.
My ideas that I have done:
4 Factory Resets
3 Airplane Mode Reboots
2 Safe Mode Attempts
1 Clearing of Cache
At this point I dont know what else to do. I really miss Android and I am currently using an iPhone 6S. I just want to get back to the roots where I belong on the Dark Side. Please someone help me with this issue, I even contacted LG support and they told me they can't do much about it. Same with AT&T they aren't helpful over the situation. This seems to be an issue a few people have had but I think it's time to get this issue fixed.
May the 4th be with you...
