[Q] Ignore system update? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

I started getting a popup this morning letting me know their is a software update for my Verizon Galaxy S4.
I do not want to update it for 2 reasons: First my phone is rooted and I'm not sure if the rooting process will still work after the update. Secondly, I read through the release notes, and it made no changes or bug fixes to anything that I use.
That popup pops up about every 2 minutes and is VERY annoying.
How do I get rid of it?
Thanks,
Mike

Could use this as well

Uncheck automatic update in settings/about device/software update....

Just root it after the update again, as you did before.
This isn't an iPhone.

No option like that for me in their, as soon as I hit software update it goes right to the popup with only options of "Install Now" or "Install Later".
I have a SCH-I545 btw.
And the reason I love Android over iPhone is that I'm not usually bullied into doing something a certain way, so if at all possible, I would prefer not to cave in to Samsung.
Thanks,
Mike

This is the GT-9505 Forum!
With the int. GS4 (I9505) it will work.

If I'm not mistaken this is the general s4 forum and the OP clearly states he has a Verizon s4 and this link states that there is no new root method for the Verizon s4 update.

Use droidstyle's guide. Section 1b has odin to stock. Use the vramc3 file and it will be on the latest ota and relocked.

After going through the unlock process on the Verizon Note 2, would I be able to then use a MetroPCS sim card in it? I went through the entire process in Casual, it said I was unlocked, but when i popped my metro sim, it wouldn't recognize it.
I'm guessing I either messed up somewhere, or it isn't capable of doing it.
Can anyone shed some light?

No, the bootloader update is locked so you cannot go backwards at all. That's VZW's way of saying "we love our customers" :good:

I only have 3 root friends in real life. 2 of them will fight it till it works even if they don't know exactly what they are doing. The other one, is buying a windows phone next upgrade because he had a poor experience(because he bought the htc one x instead of the galaxy s3..)

GNote 3 unlock??

Just curious if there is any buzz yet and if Verizon Note 3 will have unlock method and root. Also what was the Dev support like on the Note 2. Comparable to the GS4 community we have now?

This will probably get locked and told to move to the stickies for other device discussion since you're asking about the note 3. Just a heads up.

Or you could always try out one of the AOSP Kitkat ROMs, available in the original development section. They're pretty darn stable, and can certainly be used as DDs.

If you read this post:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2601067, the 4.4.2 leak is for the international S4 ONLY, not any of the North American variants yet.
Your S4 is probably soft-bricked right now, which is nobody's fault but your own.

Sounds quite reasonable.
Following Samsung OTA's for a long time across 3 phones and almost 6 years.. seems they connect some of the major OTAs to release of new product. Since the S5 is getting close could it be tied to that event? Betting Verizon's S5 won't be first on the release list for US carriers either.
OTA of 4.4 for the S4 prior to the S5 release just doesn't sound like a starter. It would be a nice surprise though....

Not all of us have that kind of money.. That thing is expensive for a college kid.. /sadness
You could always run an INT 4.4 ROM that has the boot loader removed and Loki-Doki the thing. I am running 4.4.2 A TW ROM on my S4

I haven't taken any OTAs yet in 5 months of owning my phone. Once you build firmware is updated you are stuck...and most likely will not be able to even odin back. If you don't care about Root or any ability to mod...and don't mind stock features go right ahead and take the update

I got really excited too. I've been using Wanam Xposed for awhile, but I do like the white battery icon in the status bar in KitKat. I hate to sound cliché, but emoji support would help in apps such as Twitter.
sorry to get everyone excited. i will have to do this update.
