New ota update being pushed - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

I woke up this morning to an ota wanting to install. It came over during the night. Anyone know what it is or does? I sure hope it's a version update. 4.3 maybe! ? I have access to the download if any devs would like it uploaded.

Another update already? We just got one last week.

Will the OTA break root?
My phone is currently downloading the update. How can I avoid or stop this and will it break root?

Nothing in PA yet.

What program do you freeze with Titanium Backup to stop the prompt to install the update?

look for SDM 1.0

The file is labeled update.zip and it is 240.64mb in size. I am uploading now. I will post a link to it when it's done.

It just appeared on my phone in PA, any information on if unrooting before updating is necessary? Or must we unroot to safely update? (I have an ME7)

Definitely not 4.3, see the below link to VZW support site. The file size however looks different from what the Instructions Doc says "System update size – approximately 329.5 MB".

I'll be blocking this with Titanium until I hear more.

How about this. Who is actually on MI1 AND has this OTA?

How to prevent the update?

I keep saying no to the update but it still keeps trying to do it automatically. I put it in airplane mode but it still shows up. Does anyone know how to stop it?
I would like to know this as well because it's gonna update if I don't keep my eye on my phone

I deleted the checkinprovider.apk, cotaclient.apk, and updater.apk and the .odex files that go with them.
EDIT: It still wants to update
If you have a custom recovery it wont even install. so dont worry if you have one.
What will it do if I download it

It's the htcDm app that downloads the update
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using XDA Premium HD app
Once you download and defer install or choose to install it will it prevent it from asking again though? or will it continue? It's getting annoying.
What about removing the htcDm did that resolve anything?
Nits made a mod

In the future please search for an answer before asking. This gets asked all the time.
Now to answer you question rooting and unlocking to flush a custom ROM is the easiest way. You can do it without, but you have to mod every app that you want yourself

Yes also it's important to tell us the build number (or at least last digits) because we have two official builds and both are 4.1.1

its ll4
it says ll4
its super simple to root it and flash and I think thats your best bet for having all your apps multiwindow'ed. I had my doubts (only rooted once before and had a tricky process) but its really simple this time around. Just DL some files click a few buttons and your done in under 5 mins. I'm too lazy to find links and whatnot but if you are genuinely interested I can at least send you some stuff on how to root your phone.
Just follow this guide to root unlock and flash a ROM. It's the best walk through around

Does anyone know where or how I can get back the previous version of twrp? The latest update is horrible and laggy as hell.

April 8 AT&T OTA Update

I received an OTA today, which is 5.9 MB in size. I'm not sure what it does because it won't let me update due to being rooted. I figured I would share it here and maybe someone with more knowledge than I can do something with it. http://www.4shared.com/file/gBqs7WLiba/dlpkgfile.html

Oh, I was hoping it would include Knock Code.

Does it by any chance enable tap to pay? It says changes to google wallet.
I am rooted and was able to take the update. Kept root too.

I am rooted as well but the update failed on mine. Phone did reboot with no issues. From what I have read I do think it enables tap to pay for wallet.

I can confirm it enables tap to pay in Google wallet. ?

dammit i too was hoping for knock code. im waiting for it so i can go back to stock...
I can also confirm that tap to pay with wallet is available. I was not able to update so I restored back to 80020c then upgraded to 80020k. Ioroot25 worked fine to root as well.
Mine failed to update due to root.

It worked for me, so maybe the key is to have it done BEFORE accepting the OTA the first time.

Did you set permissions to 644 on both files before rebooting? And are they in the correct folder?
