Since McAfee was forced on an update I have not found it possible to Revert back to stock to update the PRL. Currently on ZVA Stock. In the past, I tried to revert and got stuck in the LG logo
If their is an apk that allows PRL updates via rom let me know otherwise is there va technique to rom, then revert for update then back to rom.
Thx
Based on null replies, it's not possible to update the PRL running on a rom

Your on zva stock or stock rooted? Are you trying to write a prl or just update prl? Are you on Sprint or a different carrier?

I am on sprint, and I would like to update the PRL. It would be great to write a PRL to possibly allow better cell-tower Connection
have you tried ##UPDATE# in dialer? or Reset Cellular Data in "Activate This Device" in settings? those would both attempt to force an update from Sprint. if you want to manually push a PRL, you can use the following link. I just tested it and pushed PRL 56030 to my phone and it worked. I am on ZVB stock rooted.

The Basic-Flasher program gets flagged by some antivirus as a virus, but it works perfectly.

as the title says, after rooting, i am unable to check for any firmware updates. i realize it doesnt mater right now as there is noithing out right now, but i like to check often just in case tmobile releases something or samsung. when i go to check for updates by selecting settings>software update and then a warning message pops up: DM initalisation is not ready, Check network or SIM card
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated
I was about to ask this same question, and yes i am also rooted. Just wanted to post that you are not alone on this one.
thats good to know, i was beginning to wonder if i was the only one having this problem, for now i unrooted and flashed back to stock using odin, but i miss having root and some of the apps i was using. I am not willing to give up the ability to check for new firmware though as my source at work told me that updates are coming in the next 2 weeks and that we should be getting a text message about them in the next week or so. and just so people know, it wasnt a tmobile customer service rep, i work for deutsche telekom so we here things first usually.
I have this same issue, where I'm unable to check for firmware updates. I am not rooted though... I just bought the phone today and when I click the 'Software Updates' option it says 'No firmware' in a pop-up message. This problem is not only associated with rooted devices.

Read the first post again... yours is the normal message that is displayed when no firmware update is available...
Also, I'm rooted and the update seems to be working fine.
I'm rooted and it pops no firmware.

If I flash back to stock it works fine when I use odin to go back to stock, but if I reroot it says the same thing. Nothing ever stops it from saying what I posted in the OP. I need some help funding a fix or ok won't be able to get the froyo update when it releases.

If I use oclf to root and apply the fix, then unroot using oclf, will the factory ota not work?

Duuude don't worry about it. People will post ROM clockwork backups of the froyo release / stock odin flashes of it / etc.
Anyone will be able to update, however they do so... And just wait til you hear about it THEN unroot and update
yep i'm rooted to and it checks for filmware just fine .

... *sigh* Because there isn't a UPDATE for the Vibrant.
IF I ROOT, WILL I GET OTA UPDATES?
Yes. Rooting will not prevent this, unless you flash a custom ROM that will block receiving the OTA update. If you do receive and download the OTA update, you will lose root. Typically within hours of the OTA becoming available, thanks to some fine XDA folks you can get the update WITH root. You would simply need to download and flash the update like a normal ROM.

Rooting doesn't mess with your OTA updates, when you update with the OTA it will remove your ROOT. The only way to interfere with OTA's are flashing custom ROMs.
But you cannot get the ota update when it releases if the check for update option under settings is not working. All I want to know is why the firmware update option is broken and how to fix it.

When I first got my phone I got the message Check network or SIM card. I rooted the phone and still got that same message. I restored to origanal and got the message'No firmware'. Now again I am getting Check network or SIM card.

It seems like your phone was more than just rooted. What method did you use to root?
Note: Yeah, the "No Firmware" message is the normal message you get if there's no update available, aka, your phone is searching for and/or receiving OTA updates just fine.

This was my plan. Although, I'm reading posts that imply that even though a phone is rooted, if the user hasn't flashed a custom ROM, they'll still get the OTA update, and getting the OTA update will unroot the phone.
When this happens, root-necessary apps like ryanza's lag fix, titanium backup and android system info won't work anymore right? Will they need to be uninstalled and reinstalled? Or will I just need to re-root?
Sorry, I'm new to Android and don't know the typical process stock ROM root users go through with OTA updates.
Genuinely, thanks for any feedback.
Yes I wanna know this too. I'm holding off on getting apps for root only because I think they might mess something up. Also I thought I read set cpu spook might mess up the vibrant running oclf. Anyone?

Who is your carrier?
AT&T goes 4.1.26 to 4.1.57 to 4.1.83.
Is you 1.2.7 a typo?

There is a thread in the dev section with all kinds of ROMs. Find your flavor there. (At least, if it hasn't been deleted )
I just got a notification for an update from HTC. I dont have a data plan with Sprint, and I couldnt find any information on here regarding this update. has anyone else recieved this?
Do you know what the update did?
I see the update too, really curious what it is. HC?
I'm going to wait though, I'm rooted and don't want to do a OTA update
Seems like it was an update to fix a tracking security issue?

Did the update break your root status?
I am rooted, however the update fails to install. Anyone else have this issue?
I also cannot update. It downloads, and reboots the device. After the reboot, there's an android bot, and a triangle encased exclamation point.

Need to revert to Stock RUU and then do the update(s) once done the do root process again
In case you need the zip 1.22.651.1
OTA_Express_Sprint_WWE_1.22.651.1-1.18.651.1_release_198260xikterg48lc0snx1.zip

OTA_Express_Sprint_WWE_1.22.651.2-1.22.651.1_release_220183oqo49zm8mw3kfeuv.zip
Odd it shows 2.1 not 3.0
Couple of quick questions here. Is the first files you linked an update and then the second one is a patch to that one? Also reverting to the ruu won't undo to the s-off setting? Is this correct?

Correct first 1 is Update then patch and you will need to do root process again.. But 1st you need to use RUU to get into stock to allow updates to occur.
You can also try to flash VIA recovery, been told it works that way to without having to go stock then reroot. The bookmarkwidget3D was the only glitch that I found, its not in the update.
Hi,
I am on stock rom, not rooted but I have still not received the update for 4.4.4. I am sim-unlocked so i don't know if that has anything to do with it. Even when i try to manually search for the update through the settings, it says it can't find the update.
Appreciate any help!

Yeah, I am on AT&Ts network. I have disabled AT&Ts apps though. Maybe that has something to do with it?

Depending on how you disabled them you might not even be able to flash the ota. You have to have untouched /system and stock recovery in order to take the ota.

Only disabled them through Settings->Apps. Didn't tinker with anything in this phone as i did with my previous ones.
If you don't mind setting up the phone again, you can RUU (will wipe user data).
Similarly, sometimes folks have gotten the OTA to kick in after doing a factory reset.
Neither of these are ideal I know. But it is what it is.
Lg G3 using straight talk SIM. Originally on 35b. Downgraded via tot method, rooted and installed Twrp. No matter which ROM I install I have no mobile data. I have service, but no data. The 4Glte is there but dimmed out. If I android back to 10b, everything works fine. I have tried using different bootstacks but no help. I was thinking an APN problem, but I can't get into the settings. Any help would be appreciated, otherwise I went through this whole process for nothing.

I am having the same problem on Net10 and when i try to restore to Stock LP 5.1.1 with TWRP it says its unsigned firmware and will not boot. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I hope someone chime in soon cause today I was planning on picking up a Straight Talk SIM as well. I'm currently on Jasmine 8.0 with a Smart Mark SIM (dropping the service since I'm only getting Hspa) and also planned on installing the xdeb 46a Rom this weekend.
If either of you figure it out, please post. It would be nice to have a thread follow vs creating a new one.

OK so I've been able to get LTE through the hidden menu code "*#*#4636#*#*" . and changing the network to LTE only mode. Problem is I cannot yet enable VoLTE so when I do I lose GSM connection and can't make calls or send texts but LTE works great. Then if I switch it back I have GSM but no data. There is a thread on here about enabling VoLTE through hidden menus but I haven't been able to pull up that particular menu yet.
