AMOCO

The Computer Guy
Okay,This update we all know will not install with CWM & Root.
So,This is a guide to help you get it installed.

1) Download the original backup here: http://androidforums.com/force-4g-lte-all-things-root/742117-working-stock-nandroid-backup.html
And follow the instructions.

2) Download the Stock Recovery from here : http://androidforums.com/force-4g-lte-all-things-root/743724-recovery-stock-recovery.html
Again,follow the instructions.

3) Check in the apps on the phone to see if SuperSU/Superuser are installed.If so go into the SuperSU/Superuser setting and unroot/temp unroot.

4) Install the Sprint Update(B13).

5) Reinstall Root,I used this one,It works after update:

Follow the instructions.

6) Reinstall CWM,I used this one:
http://androidforums.com/force-4g-lte-all-things-root/706469-cwm-based-touch-recovery.html
Follow the instructions in the thread.

7) Reinstall the ROM you want.

And your done.Just remember,Once you have installed the update,You CAN NOT reinstall a previous backup.As it will remove the update and revert back to B09.

Hope this guide helps.:D
 
Oh, well it's been out and there's a post about it somewhere on the forums. In fact I flashed it with cwm and am and have been running it.
 
Alright so will droidsmith put you back in B09 or what, because I had installed b13 at one point to test it out and flashed DS, and I getting the OTA from Boost/Sprint.
 
Upon first attempt, I installed it though the package installer (i was lazy) and it still showed the message.
(Will update when I move it to /system)
 
wont work if the file is already downloaded... once the file has been synced to the phone and gives you the notification to install it youre gonna have to remove it and might even need to figure out how to reset the check for the file, all that program does it keep you from connecting to the server it cant keep android from realizing there is an update ready to install. i learned that the hard way
 
head into your cache directory, delete the update zip, maybe even clear dalvik kuz that never hurts, hopefully that should solve your issues
