My phone is rooted and trying to update to 4.3. I keep getting the "postponed" message; now, however, I've recieved the, "this is the last time you can postpone" it. Help. I want to keep my phone rooted so I assume I cannot update.
What do I do. Please help.... Thanks in advance.
Update and then root it again
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk
Okay...use Rom Toolbox to freeze HtcDm (the app/service responsible for OTA updates [I think...]). Question: should I update to 4.3? I read somewhere that it strains battery life? Is there a way to do this through TRWP? Can I update to more current version of android?
Thanks in advance!!!!

Hello everyone,
I have a noob question about OTA updates after unrooting my Tab 10.1 Wifi.
After Samsung fixed the 3.2 update I updated my Tab not thinking that it was rooted. I don't necessarily care about loosing root as I really don't use it all that much. After the update it was acting strange and being really sluggish with certain things so I figured I would flash it back to stock and unroot the device and update from there. Well I used CWM to flash back the stock 3.1 ROM and then Odin to put the stock recovery back on. All went well with this and as soon as I rebooted I got the first update which was the to the market for movies. After it updates to that it stops. It's been sitting here for a couple days now without being able to update any further to TouchWiz or to 3.2. Is there something I missed that would prevent me from updating further when unrooting or am I just going to have to wait a really long time to update again?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated,
Cody

You are awesome. I was searching prior to posting but I did not find that one. That is exactly what happened there. Thanks so much!!!!
I had a quick question about the new Tbolt update. I rooted my tBolt shortly after the last OTA update was pushed. This is the first update to come through since rooting and I was wondering what I needed to do to install the update. When I was looking into rooting I believe I had read that many times the formal updates are often leaked before hand anyways. Do I need to find a root version of the update somewhere (if so where would that be at?) or do I have to un-root to install it, or can I simply install it while rooted (I'm assuming this will encounter some errors). Sorry if this has been answered somewhere else already. I did look around and did not see anything answering this question. I'd appreciate any help. Thanks
If u download the update u WILL LOOSE ROOT.. give the dev time to root the update

If a new ROM is available, will AT&T force the update to the phone? I am worried if this happen while my phone is rooted, the root will be gone.
Will rooting PREVENT the forced update?
I am NOT planning to install Custom ROM, just rooted stock.
its ota it will be offered not forced.
also there are ways to disable the ota check that way you dont even see the prompts and can just wait for the community for a rooted stock rom.

Could you share this "ways to disable the OTA check"?
I just got my Note today and already I received a prompt saying that there is a new "AT&T Software Update". I have NOT rooted my phone yet.
Download titanium backup and freeze it.

A bit of a nooby question, but I've never come across it or had to do it before.
I know I could flash a custom ROM but nothing quite stands out just yet, waiting for S3 USA release. There should be a lot more action on the ROM side then.
But at the moment I'm on stock, rooted and woke up with an update on my phone yesterday. From what I've read there's 2 updates 1 after the other and 1's a new kernel. I'd rather not update and root again if there's a simple way of removing the update e.g. like say delete a file from somewhere. After all my phone's running 100% as is.
Anyone know the answer? Its bugging me now, you can only perspone it for 3 hours at a time.
If I don't get rid of it by tomorrow I'm going to reaserch if i can just update over a rooted stock ROM. Find out about the new kernel build make sure I can root after updating and reluctantly update.
Thanks in advance

Hi mate
I have the same problem and can't get rid of the OTA update available message, if you find a solution then please post.
Many thanks!!
download the 'update' from sammobile.com it's the LF2 rom, install with mobile odin and tell it to keep root.... problem solved
I just used titanium backup to delete the updater. Seems to be working fine for now.
Hello all!
Thanks for the great info.
I was able to install saferoot and get my phone back to some semblence of usefullness after my phone took the I605VRUEMJ9 update, without my permission nonetheless, but now that I have it rooted, I need to stop them from doing any more updates unless someone here says it's safe and that it won't remove my root!
Can anyone advise how I can stop the update that's currently prompting me to install it and prevent them from installing in the future?
Thanks for all the help here!!

Thanks for the info. I was able to disable the google framework items and renamed the update.zip file, but I cannot find the com.lge.lgfota.permission? I installed the root browser and used it to do a search, but all it did was sit there for hours saying sorting and never found it. I am running a backup with Titanium now. Can someone tell me what SDM is and how to disable it as I read above that I needed to do that?
One more thing, my Note II is now asking fo an unlock code and I can't figure out how to remove it? Is that something that comes with the FoxFi app? I had it before I took the I605VRUEMJ9 update and it never asked for an unlock code.
I am SOOO SICK of Verizon screwing with MY equipment!!
Is this update going to screw with my partial root since I already took the I605VRUEMJ9 update? If not, I'll just let it do it and get rid of it and hopefully the changes I made will stop the next one that tries to download? Yes, No??
Thanks again for all your help here!
