Scary,
I don't get a "System Update is Available" notice. I must go into settings > About > Software Update, then the phone begins downloading the update (which as you know, fails to install). Correction on the file size! The update file size is 242 MEG.
I entered the commands you provided and get this. I can't help be feel bad about your struggle, I am very much over my head with this and I am certain you have far better things to do!

Hey Rex, no worries about the delays .
So the system update won't give you the option to "install now"?
Usually how they work is that by the time you've seen a notification, the update.zip (probably won't actually be named that) will have already been downloaded in your /cache (or /cache/fota in your case, I believe) partition.
So, by the time you see a "System Update is Available" notification, the file is there and ready and waiting for install. We just want to copy that file off / over to your SD card before it gets moved/deleted due to the install failing.
If you want to try to snag the file, that would be very helpful .
Here's how I've done this in the past:
- wait for system update notification
- look in the /cache or /cache/fota partition for a large file
- use a root-enabled file explorer/manager to copy that file to your /sdcard
In your case, you might have to use the Android Terminal Emulator like we did before to find and copy the system update (OTA) .zip file:
(the size information you posted is very helpful and might allow me to find an already posted copy of that OTA)
Lemme know what you think!
