Help At&t update

I started the update and now it's in a reboot loop. AT&T is trying to update the phone but my root isn't allowing it. I get the following in the system recovery menu:

RA Revamped
Build: Made for WCX ILLUMINATI SERIES by GINM
Finding update package.....
Opening update package.....
Installing update.....
Copying fotaBoot to /data/system for customized reload
Verifying current system....
assert failed: Apply_patch_check ("/system/app/Flickr.apk", "82964e93cb5E: unknown command [19ffae5371120721e32d42cc07eb5".]

E: Error in /cache/fumo/OTAPkg.zip
(status 7)
Installation aborted




What do I do? Everytime I try the "Reboot system now" from the system recovery menu, it just starts the process all over again. I tried "Nand restore" and it tells me E: Couldn't open directory /sdcard/nandroid/

I'm really stuck here. Help please

There is a solution posted in the Vivid forum at xda-developers. HTH.

I'm assuming that you're referring to the recommendation that involves booting into recovery and then clearing the cache. When I try to boot into recovery from the bootloader, my device goes back into the boot loop immediately. How else should I go about it.

Is there any merit to performing a factory reset from the bootloader instead?

Honestly, since I've never rooted my phone, a lot of it is Greek to me. ;) But here's a link to the thread at XDA forum so you can check it out.

Right. That's the thread.

Unfortunately, when I try to boot into recovery from the bootloader, it moves immediately into the boot loop again. The same thing happens when I press "factory reset."

The normal rebooting process brings the phone back up; but, within about 10-15 seconds, it goes into an automatic shutoff that can't be cancelled. When the phone restarts from the shutoff, it goes into the bootloop.

Right now, I'm completely stymied.

Hi everyone,
This is my first time posting to the Android forums. My Vivid phone updated last night. Everyone I have spoken to following the update tells me that I sound muffled like I am talking to them from a deep tunnel or underwater. I have not dropped my phone or had any other accidents (water, etc). I spoke with my sister and husband yesterday afternoon prior to the update and all was fine. Immediately following the update, NO ONE can understand what I am saying during a phone call and there is a continuous echo/repeat problem also.

Has anyone else experienced this problem after updating?

I've had this problem since day one. If anything, mine got better after the update the other day.

Has anyone had problems with the stock camera app not loading after doing the update? So far this has happened twice and a reboot solves the problem, but I'm wondering if it's the update or a conflict with another app. I've read that rooting and deleting certain stock apps that are linked to the camera can cause this, but I'm still unrooted and have only uninstalled apps I've downloaded.

I made the mistake of installing this update a little while ago. Now my WiFi doesn't turn on.
I did a factory reset, but still no luck. It simply tries to turn on the WiFi for a long time but stops after a while.

I was going to s-off my phone, but never went through. However I did go far enough to void my warrenty. Is there ANY other options I can try that might fix my WiFi?
