I have been running like a chicken with my head cut-off, pulling the .902 update from my wifes phone prior to OTA installation, setting up a Dropbox account and sending links to everyone that requested it.

Finally, I went to manual install through recovery the .902 update and I am getting an error?

E:signature verification failed

My wifes phone was identical in set-up to my phone. OTA 5.5.893 updated(no fxz), rooted with forever root and safestrap installed(no roms loaded). All bloat defrosted via TiBu prior to install attempt.

What may be causing this and how can I correct? Can't believe my wife is rolling .902 update before me and I do all the work lol

SOLVED: My fault, I was moving file to SD-ext and not paying attention in my haste that Move Failed. Didn't notice because file was correct size and in correct place, oh well. Just need to copy from PC/Laptop to SD-ext, not move from SD Downloads to SD-Ext, it didn't work properly for me. Updated with Root retained, backed up via Safestrap and debloated via TiBu. Live and learn lol. Good-luck to everyone else and lets hope this update doesn't stink.

Sounds like the file might have gotten corrupted somehow? Try downloading it to your SD card again from your Dropbox.

You are using the stock recovery right -- not safestrap or other custom?

As a troubleshooting step, you could try using my file version instead.

You hit the nail on the head, I was editing my post that issue was resolved while you where posting! I actually did try Safestrap as a last resort and received a "SD Card not Mounted" notice which is better than welcome to your Bootloop Sir lol.
