how do you stop the ota update - HTC Droid DNA

Im curious because it popped up on my phone and i dont want to lose root or brick my phone or any issues i read that are occurring. VZW got me on my tbolt a couple yrs ago and it got stuck bootlooping they pushed the update when iwas sleep and that almost happened last night with my dna, i hought devs remove the ota in the roms

I'm on viper rom, and the latest update for that rom stops updates. Don't know about other roms.
If you have a custom recovery (clockwork or twrp) I don't think the update from Verizon will even work, but your phone may still attempt to do the update.

Pull down your notification bar and click Settings, then Apps, Running Apps, then select HTC Settings (I think. It will have a green sync icon.) and click stop.

OTA
After it downloads you should be able to Defer the update until 2/24. I do not know yet if you can continue to Defer the update after 2/24, but it will at least give you some time to Flash a Custom ROM that will turn off OTAs.

You can just flash the zip by nitsuj its a mod to stop this

Ota coming soon!

I was informed today that Verizon is pushing out the new Ota already. If you haven't gotten it you will soon. 2 questions....
1. Do we have to Odin back to stock to receive the update?
2. Will there have to be a new process to root after we accept the ota?
Should this have gone under the Q and A?

I think this has already been discussed. The nee ota is nothing more than the search feature dumbing down and a new baseband+kernel. I believe you can root this with the current method. Correct me if I'm wrong though.

Why mess up your root? Just give it some time and the devs will probably have the update rooted and ready to flash with Odin !
Can anybody confirm that these will not auto-install?
On my HTC Incredible, I would just hit install later, but the popup would come back every 15 minutes.. very annoying!
Soon as the update comes out I will have a fully deodexed rooted zipaligned version available.
If I can figuire it out, I will also make an Odin image out of it.

No one does. But literally its as simple as putting the old search apk back into the new rom or ota. Nothing to be worried about

Double post please delete.
I love how Samsung and Verizon take so long to release updates - except when it's to take away the features on your phone. They get those out pretty quickly.
Does this OTA have any benefit??
Any way to block this ota? I have root access

I don't remember where I read this but you have to freeze FWUpdate.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
It's been pretty well established how to restore proper search functionality. The real question should be what do the kernel and radios do? Any improvements in reception or battery life? Any improvements in device performance? And most importantly, does this change anything regarding bootloader unlocking research and work-arounds?

Thanks, didn't even think to do that for some reason. I just froze FWUpgrade, SDM & VZWUpdate in Titanium Backup.. can anyone confirm if there's anything more that needs to be frozen?
Here 1. Don't accept it. 2. We can pull radio and kernel and install those.

Update should fail anyway if you don't have a stock recovery. They generally require a stock recovery to update the phone.

I consistently get -75 to -85 dbm so I really don't think there is a reception issue with the 4G radio for me. Now the WiFi is awful for me. That could be improved. GPS is sick.... I lock on in about half a second

FYI guys, we can still root using the same method after the OTA (VRALG1)

Update check just exits?

Running latest ota rooted. When i do an update check it doesn't give the no updates available message, just returns to the check/status screen. I did ruu the 3.14 update but not the 4.0 one. Just thought it was weird since i normally get a message saying no updates avail.

This happened to me a while back, rebooting the phone fixed it.
Same after 2 reboots. Hope it gets future updates.
Same thing happens to me, even after a full reboot. Maybe it's a network thing.

Are you running a custom recovery? I've heard if you are on amon ra or similar recovery and not stock, then it won't let your phone update. Also if your HTC dev unlocked is another blocker. Must be stock to get ota's.

I wouldn't think so. Otherwise, if it does when an ota comes around, try looking in the settings. I doubt it will warn you every hr though. Don't know and won't know soon unless verizon actually releases the ota on time

I see the update on viperdna 1.1.2, rejected it. It comes back when pulsing again for new updates. Why defer over rejecting?

[Q] A new software update is available

So this morning the Easter bunny left me a present... My AT&T LGOG says software update available. Does anyone know if the bunny dropped off Jellybeans or just another egg?
I was trying to get a screenshot of the useless message, but the update tried to install and the phone rebooted. Then the firmware update screen reported a failure. After reboot my phone still works on ICS. I'm going to take a backup now and be safe as long as the update doesn't update recovery/bootloader...
Turns out my screenshot worked after all.

Yep, I am still on 10o so this is just the step to 11c.

Yes. Can you re-root it?
I'm on stock & rooted. Not unlocked.
Update notification went off this morning; read some of this thread; told it to let me know again in 8hrs.
Just went off again, I said ok, whatever, told it to update. It rebooted, & now it's just sitting there at the white, "rethink possible" screen.
Key combo reboot actually got it into the "software update" screen, but that then error'd at 1% complete. Error was something like, "01X03fed." It disappeared too quickly while I was typing this. Rebooted again, fully this time, and a, "Installation interrupted" warning is showing.
Hopefully the update notification will be gone, too...
