Any way to stop OTA reminder? - Motorola Droid RAZR

I purchased a Razr Maxx with the intention of keeping Gingerbread on the device. This morning I woke up to a reminder to install the update.
I've been searching on google for a method specifically for this model phone to ensure it doesn't happen again, but haven't had much luck.
I am aware wiping the cache will delete the update files, but is there a way to prevent them from even being checked/downloaded??
Appreciate the help.

If using titanium you can just go and freeze the updater 2.3.6

Thank you for your reply. I thought I remembered something about otacerts.zip, but the only info I can find leads to HTC phones having this app/process.
I will freeze the updater and hope for the best!

Using titanium to freeze the updater works perfectly. You need be rooted of course.

You could just install a nice GB rom.

Did you install the 0.2 Adeo? If you did, some people have had problems with MotoBlur services after installing v0.2
I just did a reset and everything is working fine. Also, you do NOT lose root or Adeo with the reset.
i lost root when i reset but not a big issue...i just rooted again

[SOLVED] WTF? Is up with the Market? Look at this...

Tried to go to my apps in the Market and keep getting this crap!!!
I get that after a fresh wipe and ROM install. I think it's a matter of Market talking to the phone and reading what apps you do and do not have currently installed.

OK well first relax. Issues like this are common when flashing custom roms. Your best bet is to do a full wipe and then reflash the rom. Also don't restore any system data at all as this can cause issues. Only user apps and data
Reboot! Always helps!
Same here factory reset worked

That happened to me once. I just rebooted and fell asleep. When I woke up it was fine
Guys I'm Trying everything!! I Reflashed a Rom and it was Working... Then All of a sudden it said Android market process Force closed, then I couldn't get to my apps again. I just reflashed for a Second time and its still Not working...
Also during the Time when i got it working, all the apps I already purchased were asking for me to buy them again! WTF?
Anyone have any other suggestions?
I thought about contacting Google, or whoever the Hell could Restore my user information!

Hi, I know this problem. When you flash a new rom and afterwards apps were installed with a backup tool (e. g. titanium bu) and not with google market directly this error can occur.
When there is one app which was removed from market the error in your screenshot is shown. In my case it was the old version of "cut the rope". To solve this problem it is necessary to remove this link to the market or deinstallation of this app.
As long as there is a mismatch in the app-market-assignment it is also possible that you get the message that apps were not bought.
It is possible to un-link apps using the "rom toolbox pro". As far as I know it is not possible with the free edition.
I would make a nan backup and try to uninstall all apps directly in the market (on your PC not on your cell phone). Afterwards it should be possible to use the market on your cellphone. When something fails you can restore your backup.
Update: when you know which app is the source for your error --> use ur backup again and uninstall just the known erroneous app.
Its a lot of work

Adobe Flash Not Working

I have a GSM Razr and for some reason whenever I open webpages that requires Flash player, it says that my device does not support flash player. Checked my settings and my plug-is are always enabled. I am running the most recent Adobe Flash Player 11. Any ideas??? Thanks!

witch android are you running?
2.3.5 and 2.3.6 should provide flash, but ics alpha isn't able to show it (maybe only now)
I'm running 2.3.5 so it should be good. Any suggestions?

yeah, this should normally work...
had you tried to de- and reinstall the flash player update? maybe this went wrong? did this happen already before updating to flash 11?

I did try to uninstall the flash player but I was only able to uninstall the update and not flash player itself. With the update uninstalled, videos still didn't play. My phone is only a few days old and received the update right away so I wasn't able to test it pre-update. Is there a way to uninstall flash player completely?

yes, there is a way but only if you are willing to root your phone.
step by step:
root your razr with ZergRush
install Titanium Backup root
open Titanium Backup
switch to "backup / restore"
choose "Adobe Flash Player"
be SURE you made a backup of the app with Titanium
uninstall the app
install Flash Player from the market
try if it's working
if it's not working restore the backup using Titanium

Ack!! I was hoping i could avoid rooting my phone. Its weird that it doesn't work though, that alone should be resolved without having to resort to rooting. Other options??

don't know exactly if there are other options, but the android installed on RAZR prevents you from uninstalling some 'important' apps... so there should be no other way to uninstall flash player, because rooting changes your permissons
PS: other threads tells the same (made little research for you ) ... seems you have to root your phone to remove stock flash player...
EDIT: you have to root for removing stock apps because it's sometimes a bit 'dangerous' could happen you remove some very important ****
Have you tried using different browsers? I wouldn't leap straight to removing system apps without troubleshooting first.

Thanks to onslaught's suggestion, I got my flash to work with the Dolphin Browser HD.....for a week. Just yesterday, Dolphin updated and now its back to being unsupported again!!
What could it be? Real strange though.

Try to wipe cache and data in setting/application/manage app/system app/flash player there & wipe.Hope will solve the problem.
I received a notification for an OS update to 2.3.6 and after the update, my flash was working again. Weird. Next time it stops working I'll try to wipe cache and data. Thanks.

i think you need to restore the app manually, like installing an apk file, so dont leave the TB app when restoring, if you want an auto restore, you can buy the pro version

LG G6 Debloating guide

Heu there guys, any guide/list of apps safe to be debloated on our non rooted G6?
+1!
Can't remember what thread it is but there's an app called LG package disabler that will on install show what can be disabled/debloated. I'll go back and look but I'm pretty sure they mention under read more that they'll have a listing of what's debloatable in a future update. App is 99¢ over been using icebox since it was the first sick app I came across that did this. Using it with greenify has helped with battery life for me. Not as good as root and pulling the bloat off the phone, but at least it's not eating resources of frozen

Beautiful man. Even in custom roms I can pull 100mb from the build. And this is exactly what I've been looking for. Gonna dig into it deeper later on.
Now we just need a way to install mods to the stock build. Using the dual speaker mod for example. Is there anyway anybody knows to make those changes through adb? Like this deal? (which I've yet to try admittedly) seems as if you should be able to push an apk or file to the system through adb. Can you change the name on the file mentioned using this method or something like it or is it a root only thing?
The reason I'm pushing on this is that when you take your rig to an LG tech they need some way to modify things if needed. How would they do it is my $1,000,000.00 question.
And seriously guys, if I'm posting in the wrong place let me know please. Thanks
Good find! ?

Sorry for being off-topic: jelly scrolling on OP5 cant get be fixed because its hardware related. they installed the screen the opposite way and have to turn 180 degree via software.

Factory restore should not restore them, I have not tried it though. Hard to say if OTA will or not but also shouldn't.
Updating with LG Bridge I think will restore them though.

I've tried and it doesn't uninstall, just deactivates the apps. At least in my case. The factory reset restores all the apps again.

Great, thanks guys exactly what I needed to know. Appreciate it.
adb method = disabling apps that can't be disabled/accessed via the Apps menu.
apks are still in the system; gonna need root to clear that out for real
Does this void warranty or nah? Does using ADB for things like this or Greenify void warranty? That's my only issue before trying this out
