Today I got the notification that the new system update is available. I thought I wasn't supposed to get these updates if rooted? So, aside from installing this update, which I don't want to do, how can I remove this notification? It comes back after rebooting.
I'm running Stock with Goodies 2.08 or something old. I like it and I don't want to change.
Thanks!
Should be menu/settings/about phone/ software update. Uncheck notifications and reboot. Should remove it. Also if your running stock with goodies then the dev must have left the ability to receive the ota updates. However most dev's remove the ability. You can check the op or ask the dev of the rom to get a definite answer.
Edit-scratch that one about asking the dev.

I don't think there is any support for Stock With Goodies anymore
Oh yea forgot about that.

Hey guys, I followed one of the tutorials on how to unroot your EVO 3D and bring it back to stock. Before I unrooted my phone, I kept getting a notification that an OTA update was available, specifically version 2.08.651.2 (August 18, 2011). Right now, my software number is 1.11.651.2. I want to update to the newer version, but when I go to Settings > System updates > HTC software update > Check now, it shows no updates are available. I've tried rebooting the phone and checking repeatedly. I'm kinda lost here and not sure what to do. I was wondering if the PG86IMG I downloaded to return to stock disabled OTA updates, but I highly doubt that since it's just a stock image. If I could find a download link to the updates, I could apply them manually through the bootloader. If not, I might suck it up and take my phone into Sprint and get them to see what's up and update my phone there. Either way, what do you think I should do? I want it updated though. Thanks in advance.
so u unrooted using the approved method and then tried to update to 2.3.4 via HTC but it would'nt find the update? Just wanna make sure u know that if u take this update ur only option is to root via HTC's unlocked bootloader which isn't a true unlock... secondly if that is ur desire and the stock image won't find the update then i would check ur source and make sure it's not missing something. I turned off my update check cuz once it checks and finds an update that little icon stays in ur taskbar unless u factory reset and i was waiting to root with teamwin's method so i didn't take the update. if i knew how to pull the image without updating id post it for ya...
Yes sir! I understand that updating my software to version 2.8.651.2 will prevent my phone from being rootable until somebody figures out a method to make it rootable. I have no need for rooting my phone actually. I tried out a few roms, and I would rather stick with a stock unrooted rom in case I ever need to take my phone into Sprint for service. The Sprint store where I live won't do any service to a rooted phone, so I need to be on the safe side. I went to the store today, and unfortunately the only people available at the time were sales representatives, so they were of no help. They just told me to wait and keep trying to update the phone periodically. If it doesn't show any updates within the next month, my only choices will be to either call Sprint and see if they can push the update to my phone or find an update image, transfer it to my phone, and manually update it through the bootloader. I also read on an EVO 4G thread that the phone won't update if it's missing SprintUpdater.apk. I doubt a stock rom would be missing that app though. I had the update notification when I was rooted, but I didn't download it because it would break my root, and now that I'm completely back to stock, I should get the notification. What gives? I wish Sprint would send out the updates all at once instead of in waves. Anybody wanna chime in?
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Having the same problem. But i havent tried unrooting the phone.
I dont want to update to the newest firmware on my sgs2, and i accidently checked for a new update. Now i have to keep postponing it. Is there any way to completely stop the service?
P.s. sorry i have been asking so many questions on this forum. i guess thats just what happens when i get a new phone

Root, install custom Rom, uninstall device management via TiBu, done!
Probably not the answer your looking for but its one way around it
Cant u just root and delete device management with tibu without having to actually flash new firmware?
Edit: freezing device management with tibu should work just as well

You only allowed to postpone 3 times (for 8 hours options).
Just to bypass the annoyance for now, just go into Application/Running Apps, force stop it. Also in Application/All, clear cache and clear data.
thanks for all the help, guys. i just deleted using TiBu
found an answer

I finally figured this out on my ss g3 with ICS. did not want the jellybean update. Went to applications>all>software update and deleted data. the notification went away. plus set the update to only when wifi is available. but i guess it will come back once it downloads the update again.

I know this is an old thread but my friend was getting this annoying update and asked for my help.I came across this thread and asked her to get titanium back up and uninstall it but there doesn't seem to be "device management" in the list of apps when she goes under uninstall system and user apps on her samsung S3.So if anyone could tell me what exactly is the name of the app so she can uninstall it and get rid of that annoying notification.Thank you.
edit: never mind hers was an at&t branded s3 so it was named "at&t software update v4".
I got the OTA notice last week and dismissed it as I always do to let the update fallout hit and wait and see how it was going.
Well, now, I get no update notification even if I manually check Settings > About > System Firmware Update.
Normally, OTA messages nag the hell out of you until you update. Now, it shows nothing is available as though Asus pulled the .28 OTA.
ps - yes, to preempt the comments, I know I could do the update off the Asus website, but that is not what I am asking
I'll start with the obvious stupid question: are you sure you didn't update and don't know it?
If you rooted or modified system apps it won't update.

your putting the cart before the horse. You can't have a failed OTA due to modifying system apps until you get the OTA notification to update. So your referencing something that cannot happen until AFTER the OTA update is initiated.
Well you didn't answer the question. I had this happening on my acer iconia. Root + removed system apps the updates didn't show up anymore.

My original question answers your question. So it was a question you needed not ask.
And my answer DOES answer your question. But since your not getting it.. I will try to make it crystal clear....
How the heck could I have a failed update if I dont get the OTA update notification to even update??? I have explained this now in my last 2 posts, though it should have been obvious from the 1st post.

You didn't by chance freeze the DMClient?
No, I did not freeze, kill off, quit or stop the DMClient.
(though I did not even know that process was related to the OTA update or OTA update notification).
i think its just a bug or asus's new thing
i think it'll only tell you once that there is an update as for everybody else, once they tried once and fail, it would say there is no update... sorta weird i think....
Yeah, I have never seen the Asus OTA update nag only nag me 1 time and then never again. Normally, it will nag until you HAVE to update. Same with phones.
This time, I dismissed it 1 time and it never came back and now, I cannot even do it manually in Settings.
It seems like they pulled the OTA update since you cannot even trigger it manually from within Settings.
BTW, I updated my wife's with .28 the same day I dismissed mine.
I got my OTA update a few hours ago (Germany).
Try a soft (pin) reset maybe? Just a shot in the dark.

That is not what he was saying. He is saying if you removed any system apps before installing .28. Not if the update failed and you don't get it again. -_-
I just got my tf201 today. It is on Honeycomb 3.2.1. I tried to update and I get this message. there is no update available for your device currently. The build number is HTK75.US_epad-8.8.3.33-20111223. Kernal version 2.6.36.3
So I have a rooted One M8 with TWRP recovery running 4.4.2. Recently an update came through for 4.4.3, to get rid of the notification I froze the updater. Now for the purpose of getting Viper One, I need 4.4.3. But when I press software updates it says 'There are no software updates avalible for your phone'. But there was prior to freezing the updater. Help me :silly:
(PS. Apologies if this thread is poorly located)

Hey thanks for the reply but I don't think my problem is that complicated, is there anything you could recommend? The option to update was available until I froze the updater, now it's not.
:good:
Can anyone help?
I gave you a direct link from the rom you are trying to install that tells you what needs to be done. Not sure what else you would need. If you aren't getting prompts to update via OTA, there's 2 ways to update the firmware needed. Either via the official RUU for your phone and carrier (which probably isn't even available yet)or via a firmware package that's flashable via fastboot but you must be S-Off. Sometimes you can force the phone to check for updates by clearing the Google Services Framework, but this is not advised as it can have unintended consequences with how Google sees the phone and sends notifications and such. Plus just because there IS an available update does not mean you're next in line. Many carriers have staged roll outs and it'll get there when it gets there.
If it's too difficult for you then you either shouldn't be messing with custom roms or seek help from a qualified shop.

Thank you, the problem did however solve it's self. It turns out OTA updates are queued and by freezing the app I had reset my position. The update is now available.
I'm going to flash a stock recovery and update the firmware.
So i really need some help with this. My phone, like any other g3, had in the settings an option in the general tab for checking for updates. Well now for some reason that option is completely gone. And if Verizon does push out a Lollipop update i want to get it but i wont be able too because A. I'm rooted and i have custom recovery B. I no longer have any option choice for checking for updates C. Even if i try to do an ota update ill get caught in a boot loop. Now i remember at one point in time i did this trick i learned from here to get rid of the OTA update file/ notification but i didn't think that that would cause my phone to lose its option to check for system updates. I would really appreciate it if someone could help me.
Thanks

Use the return to stock thread in the general forum. You need to be stock to get the update anyway, so there is no point in not doing it.
Dial ##3328873 ,send

Second from the bottom on my phone
Check the ota option
But like you were told u should either flash back using tot or
Using your computer and LG mobile support tool or bzw upgrade assistant. Not the ota upgrade.
