Interesting....have not got this yet
In addition to sending many Premier customers their preordered HTC EVO 3Ds yesterday, Sprint began rolling out a new software update (version 1.13.651.7) to fix a force close issue in the calendar.
Unfortunately, as is often the case with OTA updates, the new build fixes one thing but breaks a few other things. In this case, the phone app is removed from the Sense 3.0 lock screen launcher and pick list, certain app icons get replaced by "generic green robots," and the sync icon won't get out of the taskbar (even when the phone isn't syncing).

Just add the HTC Watch widget to a homescreen and launch the green hornet from there. If that doesn't work (although it should) then check in themes and apps section for the Watch update without the full OTA.
Got it yesterday after a few hours of that i had the phone, I thought it was old tho
From my EVO 3D
Am happily running on January RUU of GB.
Rooted with Amon Ra and deleted a bunch of stuff.
All the news is saying that the Zound's ICS will come
out April 6th. I am unlocked S-0n and I would rather not
take the new stuff yet.
Please can you suggest what's gonna happen when the OTA
is released and it's not wanted?
Thanks.
I think there is an app called FOTAkill for that.. maybe do a Google search for that..
just dont do the update it will ask before it downloads

even if you cancel the ota, the problem is that in every couple hours, the ota pops up again for install.

This and when the January one came around I clicked don't install several times and then when I had to reboot at one point it did it on it's own. I was annoyed.
Just delete the ota files I will list em for ya do you have titanium back up just batch uninstall these...

That should stop your phone from receiving the update cus I'm not positive but on my ego those are the apks that I know searched for an update for the phone so should be the same.

Looks like your advice works...
Hey - You're the Easter Bunnee about 3 days early.
Went to Google Play (Market) and got Root Explorer.
Went to system - apps - and took out two items with
HTC OTA titles. Didn't seem to mess anything else up.
Easy solution - Thanks.....
Root Explorer is a rooted phone's best friend IMO.
I have an issue that I cannot pinpoint the cause of figure out a solution to. Maybe someone here can help.
My Sprint G3 is always crashing and rebooting the launcher (phone doesn't turn off, just closes evwrything). I'd be in the middle of any app and it will randomly close every single app. The running apps page always displays after every crash. It's as if too much ram is being used, but it will happen even after a fresh phone restart and launching something simple like WhatsApp.
My phone is rooted via the Stump one click method. I don't have any type of rooted mods enabled, only Adfree. I use Nova launcher (paid & updated).
Is there some sort of event viewer that will log the activity of the phone so I probably someone here can see what might be causing the phone to crash? I'm tempted to Unroot and restore back to stock... But if I can avoid that, I'd greatly appreciate it.

If you're running ART that could cause that. Go back to dalvik and see if that cures it.

Maybe it's Adfree then. There's a special version that some people are using. It's in it forum somewhere. I'll see if I can find it.
In the meantime, uninstall it and see if it goes away.

Thanks. I've reverted my adfree hosts file and uninstalled it. But I think the issue persists. If I try to use any app that clears cache, specifically Clean Master, when it's doing the scan of apps it'll crash midway through the scan. If I go to system settings > Apps & wait for all the downloaded apps to load the details, it'll crash there too.
This is the oddest thing.
Edit:
This visual may help. It's a video of me running Clean Master & seeing how it just crashes. I can replicate this issue every time like this, but the crashes are random when using other apps.
Link to video: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B9-N9bB35E-QdnY3Zk1FaW9EMXM/edit?usp=docslist_api
Ok, so I began uninstalling some apps that I thought may have been the issue... Which they weren't as the crashing still continues. I decided to reboot under safe mode and the problem occurs there too.
I honestly cannot recall if this began before or after rooting with stump. I may have to Unroot & factory restore. =/

I'm at a loss... The 2 things I mentioned can be the culprits, but not for you I guess. Some other ideas?
Did you uninstall Stump after getting root?
Have you froze or uninstalled any system apps/ priv-apps?
It might even be Nova is having issues.
That's all I got.

Thank you for your help. Nova was one of the apps I removed. I did remove the stump app after rooting & did not freeze/remove any system critical apps/files. I'm also at a loss.
I would try a restore to stock as the final option. If that doesn't fix it then I dunno man.

Tried to unroot but the phone doesn't move past the "Firmware Update. Do not unplug the phone..." screen after holding Volume Up & plugging into the computer. I installed the drivers before hand. But the "CDC Serial" doesn't update. I attempted to manually update the driver by browsing for the folder, but no go.
I may end up having to go to Sprint and exchange the phone for another one.

TL;DR version = Yes, I did fix it. Factory restore did the trick.
A few days after my last post the phone wasn't as bad as the video. It would still crash and reset but mainly after heavy app usage or when trying to clear app cache using any app like Clean Master.
Once my storage reached about 40% used and I couldn't clear the cache, I began to get constant Play Store error messages. No apps would update. I think it was error 483 or something close to hat number.
Since I couldn't flash back to stock because the drivers wouldn't install, I gave up and tried a factory reset. I nearly sh-t myself bc once I confirmed the restore, the phone didn't want to automatically reset per the instructions. I pressed the button multiple times and nothing. I pulled the battery and when I turned it back on, I got the initial screen with the "powered by android" and then black. It did not wanna do anything. Pulled battery again, same outcome. It left it for maybe 10min and still nothing.
I was ready to go back to sprint and see if I could exchange the phone. While researching the closest store, the phone beeped and the initial android setup screen appeared. This was about 25min of waiting on a black screen.
The phone is now back to working order and it's still rooted. There must have been a corrupt file that was erased/restored once the g3 decided to behave.

Congrats!
My G3 is crashing in the similar manner as the video you uploaded.
Except that it only happens when I'm in office connected to office wifi with almost no cellular reception.
On top of that, as far as I could tell... only two apps are causing the launcher to crash... the game Clash of Clans and LINE.
Very very strange....
A few months back, when this particular phone was rooted, I ran a script to stop OTAs. Can someone refresh my mind and tell me how to undo it for Sprint 990 via terminal, hopefully without root
There is a video on YouTube about it
http://youtu.be/bUGOKsyb0I8
Looking for terminal commands where root might not be needed.
So I followed the advice here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-...tes-update-t2909412/post58990876#post58990876
a while back to block OTAs. I may, however, have inadvertently reenabled OTAs when I upgrade to Barrin v3. So yesterday the OTA was downloaded to my LS990. I copied the file to my external SD, and deleted it from the cache folder. But now I can't get rid of the notification telling me the system update downloaded.
Any thoughts?

Duh. Tired brain. I was thinking of that as preventing the update, not removing the notification after. I'll give it a try.
Thanks.

Well, sort of. That thread's answer to eliminating the notification is to disable notifications for Play Services. Which eliminates ALL notifications from Play Services, which isn't really a very good idea in my mind.
I tried turning notifications off, then back on, but the darn thing came back. So I turned it off for a couple of hours, then cleared cache for Play Services, and turned notifications back on. I don't know if it was clearing cache, or leaving notifications off longer, or the combination, but the notification seems to be gone now.

That works, but it disables ALL notifications from Play Services. I'm not sure that's a good idea.
Is there any kind that actually works? I keep fishing around on Google play and everything is either old, doesn't work, or is full of sh*t, or a combination of all 3.

If you're running Android 9 or higher simply do a factory reset. There are no known rootkits that can worm out of the user partition, once that data is wiped so is the malware.
Don't reload it again after the factory reset.

Which would be how? Would I need a app or something for the pc? And if so do you have any recommendations? I have the mixsilver file manager on my phone (pixel 6 "Not pro"). Would there be a way I could find it thru there? Also my device is not rooted. So would I need to root? I'm sorry if this gets on your nerves. If so tell me, won't hurt my feelings. I'm literally a noob at this stuff. I've been trying to teach myself and just do trial and error but im getting in over my head and don't wanna accidentally brick my phone or worse.
What makes you sure you have spy/malware? Or do you mean adware?

With Avast or AVG Antivirus you can do a pretty good scan of your apps, even system apps if you want.

Chrome ****tin out 3 gigs of data a day. I have unlimited so it's not that big of a deal but still.....and some of the options I had in settings like "permissions, enable/disable, clear data/cache" that I know for a fact I had not too long ago are now greyed out or nonexistent. Also sometimes when I bring up "location" thru the settings menu everything is supposed to be "off" but there's 2 or 3 that look like they are switching back to say "off" as soon as the page shows. 1 of them outright takes several seconds to display any "on or off" setting at all. I've found a "Verizon" system app on my phone, some kind of Samsung telephony thing. And it seems like I can input a change to settings or something and when I look at my phone in the morning everything I had set up is back to it's previous settings.

For what it's worth, the Verizon system app comes with the phone in case you use a Verizon sim.
If you end up clean flashing or factory resetting, I would not restore any apps from backups. I would reinstall everything fresh or you could just be putting the malware back on your phone, if that indeed is what you have.

Just redownload them. Google remembers your bought apps or subscriptions in your Google account, so as long as you use the same email/account for logging in to Playstore after Factory reset you're good.
Your contacts normally are also synced to your Google Account, so you get them back also then.

It comes with the phone by default just in case you do use Verizon. Basically that app helps give the phone Verizon support, of sorts. It's disabled by default if you don't use Verizon so there's really nothing to worry about with that app.
