I followed this guide, using the Shortcut lite app. Followed instructions and worked flawlessly.

It had a hidden menu that you can only access through ADB. The above link tells you what commands to type (on your computer) to get to the menu so you can just press the button "DISABLE" on your phone.

EVOLUTION FREAK, what guide did you follow using SHORTCUT MASTER APP? I would really have liked to have done this without using ADB.

OK EVOLUTION_FREAK, I figured it out. Using Shortcutmaster Lite, i opened the menu, went to App Explorer, found "com.lge.hiddenmenu", then found "wifi_ota_buttons" and clicked on that, menu popped upped, so I pressed "LAUNCH", then the OTA menu popped up and I pressed "DISABLE." This way was much easier than using the ADB technique.

Tried out your method, It downloaded Android 4.0 for me and installed APK fine, but when i start the app , it says "Failed to validate phone" "Could not validate this phones installation.Please bring the phone back to the dealer you had it flashed at." :/
Guess Dead End? and the phone is flashed to Metro PCS

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1571021

[Q] Is it possible to enable wifi-Hotspot without rooting/unlocking bootloader

I am using the AT&T version of the phone in India. My phone is sim unlocked and other than it is stock. What is the easiest and simplest way for me to enable hotspot. I'll prefer not to root.
I tried searing the forums but only found Mods for rooted phones.
I used to use pdanet befire i went custom rom. You need to download the PDAnet.apk, you can find it here, http://pdanet.co/ , and install to phone. If it gives you a data limit that is not enough for you, you can buy full version of foxfi from playstore. I would check in to see if anything changed though

sorry wrong link, use this to get the apk.

hope it helps

[Q] Help re-installing stock sms application.

I need some help. As in the title, I went dabbling in the root of my Galaxy S4's files and deleted it's stock texting application. I tried to reinstall it and it wouldn't. :crying: I'm a newb when it comes to rooting and modding and what not so any help is loved. I'm using a current 4.4.2 Galaxy S4 on Verizon. No custom ROMs or anything of that nature. It's pretty much stock. I don't want to reflash the stock firmware because I have some sentimental pictures of my girlfriend and me on there and I have apps for Chromecast and stuff like that. I can answer whatever you guys want. Please get back to me to get my stock messenger back on my phone. Hangouts and Textra won't cut it for me. I would love to use my Gear 2 with my phone to text, I can't now. So please help me, guys, the genuineness of XDA!! I beg you!
Go here
Get the odex download.
Open zip, go to system>priv-app. Get Secmms.APk & secmms.odex.
Go into root explorer on phone, to system>priv-app, copy.
Set permissions to both as
Rw-rxx-rxx. Reboot, should be good to go.

I really appreciate this. I can't wait to try it, except that's my only problem. My internet is so slow. I've downloading it for the past 4 hours almost and it still has 17 to go. Do you think you could post just the files I need?? I feel that will be the only way I'd be able to get this fix. Thanks in advance.:highfive:

Anyone else just get an OTA? I'm stump rooted

Here's a pic. I'm tempted!
Im also rooted and I just got this OTA. Not sure what it is. probably just some security garbage.
It is ZV6, I thought I had everything disabled. What ever you do, do not install it!!!
---------- Post added at 12:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:40 AM ----------
I just got it and panicked a little. Found where it downloaded a deleted it. Completely removed software update. I thought when I used shortcut master lite, found WLAN and disabled OTA. I thought that was enough. Sucka still got through and tried to ruin my year.

What hidden menu was I have been trying to disable it
Annoying
If you update your profile I think the settings revert like the hotspot mod
Thinking I may either update to barin zv6 or vanir for a moment. Got my nandroid of super silky zv4 that I was loving. Just do not want the S4 experience. BEING PARANOID!!!!
Yeah I might as well try I wanted to stay stock until lollipop which will be soon enough

If you took the update I'm almost sure you lost root you'll have to use lg flashtool to stock zv4 and do it all over again
I believe your f***ed.
I'm new to this.. I have my OTA update waiting on my phone.. Can anyone help me delete it??
So I don't accidentally install it..

Long press it in the notification pull down.
Go to app info, this will take you to google play services
look for where it says show notifications and uncheck it
just a temp fix
Thank you very much imOrtalz!!! Gonna try it now..

A simple search on Google of exactly what your problem was returns this as the first result. You are not screwed and it is a simple flashable zip file that will save you. For future reference, don't ever take an official update from LG if you value root access or TWRP on your device. Anti-rollback may be right around the corner.
Thanks!!
I did the stupid update and lost root with stump! Is breaking my phone and getting it replaced my best and easiest option?

Would Pay for Someone to Upgrade my LG G Watch to the latest Android Wear

I have not had the time to troubleshoot, and implement the new Android Wear OS on my watch.
I would like to send my watch to someone, so that I could pair my device with the iPhone.
Any takers?
so what is your question ?

do it yourself, its really simple
Hi!
No need to sending your watch to someone, you can sideload an OTA zip file thru command line in a computer,
Lets see, what is your watch build number (go to settings > about)
yes there a app in this forum to update and recover under windows soo yes no problems here,then youll can use it on iphone.
