System Update Error
During the update on my Lenovo
Vibe K4 Note, I encountered a problem that prompts me while the new firmware is
trying to install. It says “Upgrade package signature does not match, cannot
install this upgrade package.” After downloading the 28MB file, the update doesn’t
push through due the mentioned error.
To resolve, I did free up space
on both internal and external storage of the device. Did a reboot then download
the update again, luckily it installs the new build firmware.
