Hello.
I have an AT&T SGH-I317. The OTA upgrade is being pushed, but my phone will not upgrade.

After the download, a Teamwin screen comes up, and after an error message that the "MD5 file not found", the TWRP screen appears, with no indication of how to proceed with the upgrade. I have just tried several different choices, including a factory reset, all to no avail. Before exiting TWRP, it advises that the phone doesn't appear to be rooted, and do I want to install SuperSU (which I've declined).

Can anyone advise as to how to go about the OTA upgrade? Using TWRP, or uninstalling TWRP?
Thanks.

From what I understand and my experience, you can't get OTA updates with a custom recovery installed. You need to have stock recovery.

There's a great post on going back to stock on these forums that has saved me a couple of times when I thought I bricked my phone. Roll it back and then give it a shot.
