I've attempted the update of my Alita (from current version 3.01-2020102114) over five times.
Each time the update fails with the progress bar at about 20-25 percent advanced, showing the message "error!" labeling an android on its back with its chestplate open. After restart, the system invites me to delete the downloaded and failed update in order to avoid further error messages. |

What was the original Android version of your Alita?
Did you buy with Android 6 or Android 8.1? Have you updated from Android 6 to Android 8.1? My update aborts after about 25% system update with an error. Quote:

Originally Android 6, subsequently updated to Android 8.1, and then OTA updated to 3.01-2020102114.

i had exactly the same 25% ERROR problem with my likebook mars update. So i went to <https://www.facebook.com/BoyueLikebook/?ref=page_internal> and ASked BoyueLikebook for help. that's what I did.they quickly rectified the download problem.the successful update was a much larger file size then the previous faulty one. make sure you state your model name,model ID and the last successful update version that you installed. to see my experience with my very similar problem look at = <https://www.facebook.com/BoyueLikebook/posts/2931087277121854> try delete the downloaded and failed update then recheck wifi update for new update. E.G. Please help to try: 1. Disconnect WIFI 2. Delete update package which you downloaded from the file manager 3. Connect with WIFI to update via OTA again.

Did re-performing the 8.1 firmware update include a factory reset, i.e. the entire original rooting procedure? Thank you. |

Sorry, late with my answer but yes I had android 6 and updated it to 8.1 as soon as it was available and then ran OTA updates regulary within day they became available. There were a few I think. Don't know actual versions I hopped from but should be sequential.

I provided Boyue with my SN and FW version, and they promptly created an 800 MB+ update that successfully OTA updated my Alita, without the need to reinstall my system. So far it seems they also resolved my garbled screen issue. Testing continues apace! |
