Hi folks,
until today I’ve downloaded 3 updates for my phone but unfortunately I wasn’t able to install any of them
I tried it the OTA way, as I got the updates offered when I turned on the phone.
I have the versions that were offered on Mar. 13th ( OS 0.7-2020031345025),
on Apr. 09th (OS 0.8-2020040948906 and
on Apr. 11th (OS 0.8-2020041149224).
Whenever I try to install a version I get an error message saying: “Failed to update! Cause: corrupted”
A solution would be to manually install the update you want in TWRP.
You can directly install the latest version, or the one before so that you will be able to test if the ota update works for the latest or not.
Hello @bixxby, I still remember the installation procedure in February 2020. That is why I take the liberty of asking in advance: Do you know how to use the TWRP “File Manager”?.
Then in TWRP, go to “Advanced” > “File manager” and browse to : / > “data” > “lineageos_updates”.
You should have 3 files (because you have tried to download 3 updates.
Click on one of them, then on “Delete” ou “Remove”.
Do this for the 3 files.
Go back in /e/ and try to download and install an update.
Ask if you have any doubt.
You can also look at that howto in order to see how to install an update via TWRP if needed :
Sorry guys, it doesn’t work either way, I’m always stuck in RECOVERY, no chance to enter TWRP. I think I’ll stay without updating my version of the OS.
Hello ! I encounter a similar yet slightly different problem on my phone. It is a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge. Starting from the system version /e/ OS 0.7-2020021541379, I tried updating with the OTA to /e/OS 0.8-2020040948906 (9 april 2020). The update is correctly downloaded, but fails to install as well.
I then tried updating via the TWRP install fonction from the data>lineageos_updates folder. TWRP then says that the update was done succesfully. The phone reboots, I am then prompted to decrypt my phone.
What follows says I entered the correct password but the data is corrupt, and that I should reset my phone. (see image here)
I spent quite a bit of time looking for a thread about this particular issue but did not find it, probably because I did not look hard enough, apologies !
