Fix: Apex Legends Mobile Update Error Code: 154140714

The game gets stuck on the update screen with a message saying “Network connection error” and shows error code 154140714. Error 154140714 means the game couldn’t get the latest version info from its server because it can’t connect properly.This usually happens if your internet connection is weak or unstable.

Other reasons could be server maintenance, using an old version of the game, or having some temporary data in the app that’s become corrupted.

In this article, we will discuss different ways to solve this error.

1. Check Apex Legends Mobile Server Status

Before you try any other troubleshooting, check if Apex Legends Mobile servers are down. Server outages can cause update errors.

1. Open any internet browser and search for Apex Legends server status.
2. Visit the official site and see if there are any announcements about server issues. If there’s a problem, the developers are probably already working on it and you just need to wait a while.

   

3. If there are no problems listed, move on to the next steps below to fix the error yourself.

You can also check updates on the Apex Legends Mobile Twitter account for real-time information about server issues and other news.

2. Check Your Internet Connection

Make sure your internet connection is fast and stable for smoother gameplay. Slow or inconsistent internet can cause update failures and lag.

1. On your mobile, tap the gear icon to open Settings.
2. Tap Wireless & Networks, then select Wi-Fi.
3. Turn the Wi-Fi switch ON and connect to a fast network. If your network is reliable, try launching the game again.

   

Try to sit close to your router and minimize the number of devices connected to your network to avoid interference.

3. Update Apex Legends Mobile and Your Device

Running an older version of Apex Legends Mobile or your phone’s software can lead to this error. Always keep both your game and device updated.

4. Switch to a Different Internet Connection

If you suspect your current network is the problem, try switching how you connect. For example, if you’re using mobile data (4G/5G), switch to Wi-Fi, or try another Wi-Fi hotspot. Using a different network can often fix connectivity errors and improve your game experience.

5. Reinstall Apex Legends Mobile

If nothing else has worked so far, uninstalling and reinstalling the game can clear out any hidden bugs or corrupted files.
