Hello friends..
I appreciate having a place to ask this question. Verizon pushed out the jelly bean 4.3 update.. I have done a delay but how can i stop it, delete the updater and make it never ask again? I am nit an expert with phones, thiugh i a, a geek for many decades! So a n00b here.. I am hoping to find something out today as i dont see how i can stop it. There was no way to get rid of the screen without delaying.. And now i am afraid i am messed up. I finally got wireless working, and i dont really want any of the new enhancements. When i upgraded to ice cream well.. That took forever to fix. Lol
Thanks for your help.
Smiles your way... And much appreciation,

What application do you disable
I have gone throu all the applications, but not sure whichine to disable.. Nor am i sure you make it disable.. There is nit an option to disable..that i see.
There are so many applications, and which exact one? I am not sure.
Thanks for your information. Sorry i cant figure out how to do it!
Smiles to all.
It's called "software update". I have the Canadian version of the phone so it may be slightly different but it worked for me. Or if you get a notification to update, press and hold the notification then swipe down to expand it, it should say "app info". Click on "app info" then disable.

Hello... Thank you so much for writing. I did what you said, and the only option was to force stop. Disable was greyed. So i force stopped.. There is a clear cache button too. Not sure if i should clear the cache... Wy dont they want us to have a choice when or if to update!.?
Oh, on my handset it is called SDM
Is there anything else I can do? I really do appreciate your assistance...
Thank you... Smiles your way.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help, on my phone there is the option to disable so I don't know what else to do. Maybe try unchecking "show notifications" from the same "app info" screen?

I really appreciate your information and time. I wonder why they have so many differences for the software. Do you know If i clear the cache will it delete thhe downloaded update? I worry if i take off the notification.. Will it just install without telling me? You have been a big help. Smiles your way.

I was on touchwiz uekmb rom and then downloaded the uekme update, but because I was rooted and deoxed, I didn't install it. Later I flashed task650's kme rom, and so I am updated, yet each time I turn on the tab I get a notification, even though I select "later" and then "never" when it asks me whether I would like to install and when I'd like to be notified. If I select "7 days" then I am left with a eye-sore update mark on the notification bar. Is there anyway to totally disable this update notification??
i'm having the same problem. Choose "none" option will not help either. It will pop up again. Is there a way to permanent disable the update?

I'm having this same problem and its very annoying. Anyone found an answer for this? Thanks in advance.
Same problem here. There has to be a way to delete the update data that was previously downloaded so that popup won't appear anymore. Haven't been able to locate it.
Okay, I found an answer that works for me. I flashed Task650's ROM before I downloaded the update. when i select "NONE" on the reminder it removes it from the notification bar. Obviously this is limited to this particular ROM (or maybe others I'm unaware of) since this solution doesn't appear to work for sic_lic101. just my 2 cents.
anyone found an easier/faster way to disable those notifications yet?

Dude this thread is really old in terms of where development of tasks ROM is now. So sadly I don't know what to say except update, I've not seen this issue for the newer ROMs but could be wrong.

I have updated to Overcome v2.3.0 but am still experiencing that problem.
I'd search the overcome thread first and if you can't find an answer there, post the question there. It'll get responded to quicker and most likely correctly. If you can't post in the development section. I'd post a new thread asking this question in the Q&A section telling why you posted it there and not in the overcome ROM thread. I think you'll get more, faster, and better replies.
Sorry I can't be of any help with direct solutions, only suggestions on getting better help.
I don't have the experience with the overcome ROM you probably really need.
I guess if you have more patience than me, you can just wait and see what you can get from here. Since its been bumped maybe someone with knowledge of this issue will spot it and come help.

Hey guys,
Is anyone else having problems sideloading apps on the Amaze, even with unknown sources checked? Every time I try to install anything, I can only click "cancel" and not "install". It's quite frustrating. Thanks.

Interesting.
What apps are you trying to install?
Perhaps they're corrupted?
Try an adb push.
adb push appname.apk /data/app/
You may have to reboot but that might do the trick.
You can also try an apk installer (or manager).
These apps aren't (gasp) protected are they?

Alright, so here's the deal. Did a factory data reset thinking that it wouldn't do anything and it fixed the issue. Weird...

Don't know if it'l let you push to /data* anyways, instead I would try:
Code:
adb install appname.apk
Having this problem now with stock ROM with latest update and no root. It started all of a sudden. Although rebooting fixes the problem, it does so temporarily. This is also affecting installs from the Amazon App Store. Any ideas?

I have this problem with Amazon apps. I haven't tried anything else from the Market.
Restarting my phone fixes this problem for me but after a day or two it does it again.
I am running completely out of the box stock.
So yeah you're not the only one having this problem.
Possible Solution
Found the solution to my problem. Apparently when it's enabled, the Screen Filter app was preventing the side loading of applications. When I disable Screen Filter, I can side load my apps and the Amazon App Store installs applications normally. I no longer have to reboot. Hope this helps.

That would explain why restarting the phone solved the problem, temporarily.
Until of course we all enabled "Screen Filter" again and then it would stop working.
Testing that now.
I have a similar problem when running Lux Auto Brightness.
Disable Lux, sideload the app, re-enable Lux.

This is actually because of the application "Screen filter"
It's actually a security measure build into Android. It's so an application cannot 'trick' you into installing malicious software. (ie. let's say screen filter was hacked to swap the cancel/install buttons.. to make "cancel" appear as "install" etc)
Basically any app that overlays the entire screen disables the install button from working, for added security.

I just started having this problem tonight.
I often sideload apps and never have a problem..
But tonight I just tried, and suddenly I can no longer click the "Install" button after scrolling through permissions.
I can click cancel fine to go back..
but Install button just won't click.
(and I have no "screen filter" app anywhere.)
Running stock 4.2.2 on my GNex.
Help?!

Glovebox was the culprit
I just updated my Asus Prime to ICS and was disappointed when i learned that Asus has excluded "face unlock" from the update pack.
Is there a way to get it?

its disabled by asus.
I was curious about this too. Wouldn't it work ok with the hardware?
The apk is in /system/app. When I tried to install the first time, it failed. The second time, it appeared to install, but I can't find it in the app drawer or anywhere in settings.

Interesting find... I would not think it would be in the app drawer, but more likely in Settings > Security > Screen Security but I suspect you checked that if you were savvy enough to find the apk. So, there most be some sort of interdependency with that app and the system that is further blocked.
Simple as it sounds, did you restart?
I replaced our apk with one from the galaxy nexus and with the requisite other files I'm system/lib etc.., but no dice

Nice try guys. Though it is a totally worthless function, it would be "fun" to have.

Maybe it is only disabled in the settings panel. Is there any way to modify what is shown in the settings panel or do we need source for that?

kinda sad since it is pretty neat on the nexus
I'm rooted and can't do the update. I made the mistake of making the phone check to see if there was a update and now i can't clear the notification.....even if I reboot. Any ideas?
Thanks
Try flashing another ROM? Or disable the software update check.
For future reference, questions go in the Q&A section.
I have the same problem..

Settings > apps > Updater > clear data. Does it every time.
What I did was accept the update but check only download over WiFi. The update/download will appear in notifications. Idk if u have to wait a few hours, but go back into check for updates and the option to cancel download will be there in HTC.
Obviously u don't want to be on WiFi or it will start the download. Haven't gotten any system update available messages since either. I'm stock unrooted atm.

I had the same problem. If you have TB pro, you can freeze Updater...worked for me. Clearing data on the app is probably easier, but not sure if it's permanent. Freezing will make sure you never see it again.
or add this to your build.prop
ro.config.htc.nocheckin=1
add it to the bottom..
Great. Thanks guys

Hey guys
Today, I installed Android Revolution 4.0 for my GS3.
My last OS was 4.0.1 or something, I completely wiped it.
But now I got a really anoying problem.
When you first boot a newly installed phone, there are many messages telling you how you can add widgets etc.
I deactivated every single message, but one just won't go away!
It's the message which pops up when you reactivate your phone from standby, saying that you can slide over one of these shortcuts to start the App.
Does anyone have a clue how to remove this??
