[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] n01un0:
Is there a fix for this yet or did I miss it?

I am on EK02 and perfectly happy and don't want the EL29, nor do I want to keep getting notified every time I wake my phone up.

I am rooted but STOCK (no custom rom or recovery). I just need to know what to do to remove the constant notifications for my stock/rooted setup.

I seen something posted in another thread and it said to download an attached FOTAKill.zip file and run it but I was too nervous without confirming it would work for stock rom.

Sorry if I missed a post and fix for this already. I have been out for a while and just trying to scan through the last couple of weeks threads to see if there was anything.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] noseguy:
If you figure this out, could you PM me or post your fix? I am also rooted with stock rom, that notification is getting under my skin.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] noseguy:
Someone elsewhere said to click "more info" when you get the nag, then to pull the battery. So far, it seems to be working.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SayWhat10:
Anybody else try this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SayWhat10:
tried PM disable and freeze in titanium, none worked

help please (using calkin)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] aquaholik:
It didn't work because you did it AFTER you got the update notification. I "pm disable com.samsung" before I even got the EK02 update and I have not seen any notification to update at all but my wife's phone has already updated twice since she is not rooted.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
Guys I assume a lot of you are new to rooting but just a lil history on the FotaKill.zip it is a file that was used on my Evo back in the day and I use it on my Xoom. It is all you need to stop the notifications from what I have seen forever as long as you have the file on your phone. It has been reported that freezing some services does not work all the time. Load it up and if you can't find it or unsure just Google it....Google is your friend.....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] air2k57:
And also, I get force closes every time I try to update profile/prl. Works fine with pm enable com.Samsung. I'm assuming that this script also disables prl and profile updates. Not really a good thing, considering sprint is pulling many tower upgrades over here. Besides, it does only temporarily disable software updates, sigh.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] il buono:
To disable system update notification download this apk and push it to /system/app. I haven't had this issue yet but it did work a while back.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] toussant:
I am using unnamed rom, Its very stable and fully featured. I love it but its on an old kernel. Is there an el29 Rom thats fully functional just like this for E4GT?

I know I could research it myself but you guys have been doing this a little longer.

Thank you! :0)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
Really kernels and modems can be changed but as far as equal to UnNamed strictly a matter of opinion and since we have a great tool call nandroid I say your best bet is too try them all. I am on UnNamed with updated kernel and modem 0 issues. Also maybe you should check the thread for some answers ... Doing your own leg work makes you a better informed XDA member....lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Elem3nts:
go to more info and pulled the battery out, and the notifications stopped :D

worked for me
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] toussant:
Actually thanks a million. And no you're right I'm going to figure it out. :0)

Actually I might be the first E4GT member on the verizon network, So i'll have to offer a write up on how i did that, in another thread. ^___^
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tenazrael:
Same for me. Selected More Info, then simply pulled out the battery. I'm curious why this works.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] neuroval:
That's just a temporary measure, in a few days or weeks the phone will check again and that notification will pop back up. Use the FOTAKill app posted a few posts up to stop the update notification from coming back.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toph The Earthbender:
I have that file now in my /system/app folder. Do I need to install the .apk or do I just leave it in that folder? And is it supposed to be a .zip file or an .apk? The one I have isn't a .zip, it's an .apk (the exact file you posted under your message)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Brent212:
I have the stock EK02 rom that's been rooted and had CWM recovery added. If I update to the latest update that my phone keeps trying to get me to install, will I lose root priviledges? If not, what is the reason to not update?

Anyone know what the latest version is? I think the last one I heard was EL29 or something like that, but that was back in late january. I haven't really been keeping up.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] krisI0N:
thta would be 4.o.3.. but that's leaked =P so yes el29.. it has the overscroll glow and whatnot
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Brent212:
So if I accept and install the update is it going to "break" root?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nspeer:
I downloaded and installed the FOTAkill app. Within minutes, I got another friggin' system update notification!! I guess I have to do something other than just install the app. How do I "push it to /system/app ?

thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Brent212:
I'm curious what the difference is between pushing and copying.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nspeer:
When I used Root Explorer to try and copy the .apk into the system/app folder, it wouldn't let me do it and I got a message like: unable to copy as system folder is read only.

???????
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
I would go into recovery and wipe cache then run fix permissions and reboot...

---------- Post added at 12:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:02 PM ----------

same basic concept but the difference is one is done from the pc and the other from your phone... I prefer to push files over since the correct permissions usually stick right away or while in an adb screen you can use commands to change the permission...

this can also be accomplished by using Root Explorer as well....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nspeer:
"I would go into recovery and wipe cache then run fix permissions and reboot..."

HELP!! PLEASE!

I just used clockwork mod to reboot into recovery.

At first I got a triangle with an explanation mark within it and a message like this:

E: update file is backed up: reportedted

Installing package...

finding update package...

opening update package...

verifying update package...

E: failed to seek in /cache/update.zip (invalid argument)

E: signature verification failed

installation aborted

I selected reboot system now, held down the power button, and rebooted

then I got this message:

E: update file is backed up: reportedted

# manual mode #

--updating application...

Installing apks.

successfully updated application

I rebooted again and got the same message as above

I tried to wipe cache partition and rebooted and got the same message again

I tried "apply update from SD card, rebooted and got the same message again!!

So, I am stuck in a loop here and don't know what to do.

PLEASE HELP!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Brent212:
Sounds like you don't have root access (Or maybe Root Explorer hasn't been given access with SU?... something like that). I can create/delete/modify files in system/app in Root Explorer.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
you are on a GB rom correct... also if you are having issues then place your phone in Odin Mode and restore it to stock rooted
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nspeer:
Yes, it's the stock rom that came on the phone. I have no idea how to place the phone on Odin Mode and restore it to stock...I'm stuck in a loop I described and cannot get the phone to do anything.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
You have to give it R/W permissions... At the top of of Root Explorer you should see where it says Mounted as r/o Mount R/W click on Mount R/W and when done click it to change it back

---------- Post added at 01:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:04 PM ----------

were you on stock or rooted stock? ok man do you have gtalk since we need to take this off of here... Also this forum has all you need so lets get it done just PM me your gtalk info if possible.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
are you ok now?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nspeer:
Thanks to your patience with me, all is well. I PM'd you about the e4gtauto-sfx for installing CWM.

when a terminal emulator root command is issue what will it make disappear.

I did this instructions yesterday and today I got the notification to update.

I re-do the steps but why did it come back?

[General Questions and Answers] stuttmanj:
Hello and good day,

At my school we are trying to do a field test of emergency communications using ad hoc networks. Basically I am asking if there is an engineering mode available that would allow for me to turn off A5/1 encryption (use A5/0 or A5/2) on any of the phones we have been given for testing so that they can be used with the other equipment that we have? Our equipment does not allow the "network" to disable encryption.

I'd greatly appreciate any help. We have:

Nokia 7610

Nokia E61i

HTC Startrek (Qtek 8500)

ETEN Glofiish X500

If we have a bad sample of phones, can you suggest any models that allow for this? My first goal is get it working for GSM/GPRS but then I am supposed to get it working for UMTS (W-CDMA) too.

Thank you and regards,

Eric

Just updated OTA to ek02 and am experiencing slower 3g speeds... with and without the tweak. Anyone else noticing this or is it just me?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 4android:
For me with update, 3g is same, but 4g is almost double.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Wayno-san:
If they get any slower they'll stop completely (at least for me). :mad:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] clipsedrag:
Sprint is so slow anyway that o havent noticed anything yet
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nickcash:
I really feel that i am having much slower 3g speeds.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] clipsedrag:
I am really curious tho as to which modem is the best out of all of these
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mister2quick:
I'm experiencing slower speeds and my 4G connectivity got even worse...even did a profile and prl update after the update and it didn't help.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crypt0kiddie:
Sprint's 3G is stupid slow. It's completely unusable around here. For example, the Android Market. Most things say they are "starting to download" then they never do.

I did a speed test and my ping was like 900~1100+ with a download speed of 7~13kbps and an upload speed of 50~100kbps or so.

Seriously, 7~13kbps download?

The only reason I put up with this crap is I'm almost NEVER away from wireless. I work in the technologies field with full gig-network access on almost all the campuses I'm at threw out the day and 105mbit at home.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hijewpositive:
Wow, that is really slow. I don't have it that bad lol. But with that ping and those speeds, it seems like something is uploading constantly. That's the only time I've ever seen speed tests like that for me, while i was uploading songs to Google music. That's interesting.

As for the speed test tho, i feel there is an issue with the actually test and specifically our 3g. The reason i say this is because the speed test will give me a result of 40-50kB/s, but then i will download a torrent at like 150kB/s.... all in the same area. Very weird.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] clipsedrag:
Sprints download speed for me is around .12kbs to .45kbs in good reception areas... in the same areas ATT gets 3.5mbs and Verizon is very stable with good reception and stable internet that is around 1.5 mbs... so ATT is wicked fast 3g but the reception and internet are both hit and miss as far as coverage goes. Where as Verizon may not be the fastest internet, they are well within my personal tolerance and needs... and their coverage surpasses ATT by a long haul in my area... notice i haven't mentioned sprint? That's because my download speeds on average are (like previously stated) between 10kbs and 50kbs at most! 50kbs is the fastest I've ever gotten with the speestest.net app! Don't even get me started on call reception.... I've honestly had more dropped calls in a month and a half then I've had with every other company combined throughout my life. End rant
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] clipsedrag:
So needless to say... no matter what modem u decide is he best, it will never actually please you or meet any sort of standard for you... i know it hasn't for me
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dw0d:
My 3g is pretty much the same bro

I was on deck 1.3 had ok wifi, but i switch to cm7 n its really low sometimes it will have one bar sitting next to the router, never get full bars even when i sit the phone on top of the router
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhxkinMassacre:
I'm not really sure. For me and a few people cyanogen was nothing but problems. Works for some and is a pain in the ass for others.

Just go back to decks. Decks is cyanogen mod with a few tweaks here and there to make it work better and have killer battery life. To turn decks into an exact replica of cyanogen just install the adw launcher app. Adw is the launcher built into cyanogen.

P.s. idk if you knew this but all themes and mods labeled for cm7 will work on decks (if that's why you went to it). 90% of the time anything labeled as a cm7 mod will work on any aosp since most of them are based off of cyanogens source.

I'm using decks 1.3 and tiamat 3.3.7 SBC and the battery life is crazy!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josh030181:
If i go that rout by installing awd will that give me full landscape like cm
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhxkinMassacre:
I believe so. Haven't used adw in a while. I believe there is a setting somewhere in it for full landscape :)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daedric:
The topic says it all, with the current state of the tablet world, and understanding that when the Transformer Prime and its generation of tablets comes out the Gtab7 will be 2 generations behind, should i buy one ?

I can get one 2nd hand, for 150€ wifi+3g.

Is it worth it ?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dav3yb:
if you can find one for a decent price, i'd say go for it... it might be worth checking the model of the one you want to buy to make sure developers support it if thats what you are after.

i just recently bought myself a galaxy tab 7 and im sure i'll get tons of use out of it. its such a nice size and portable, and the expericne is comparable to my phone, so nothing its too foreign like it is going from froyo to honeycomb or something.

i figure i'll keep this one until they come out with some decent 7 inch icecream sandwich tablets and i'll sell it and buy one of those. but i dont see one coming out that will thrill me much until at least mid next year.

i bought mine for about that same price (but in USD), honestly for me the instant i saw the deal it was far too good for me to resist.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daedric:
I already own a HD2 (work phone) and a DHD (private phone), so the Tab will be a complement to this ecosystem. I like it not being too big, and yet not too small.

We can find tons of 7inch tablets, bat all of them have the same resolution has my phones, and i wish to AVOID pixels :D

Performance wise, is it still on par? Can i throw it the same things i can on my DHD ?

How do you expect the ICS support to be? We're talking about samsung turf, and they're currently the "good guys" on google eyes, so the systems will always be similar. Yet i remain renitent... I hope others will comment this thread :)
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dav3yb:
well if you are looking at the one of the first generations of galaxy tabs (the ones that come with android 2.2), then i think samsung will not officially be releasing ICS on it. however there are some people who are working on porting ICS to the tab. You can find more on that in the development section.

I have a samsung galaxy s, SCH-I500, same as the fascinate on verizons network i think...

the phone and the tab have nearly identical specs, but the tab does feel much smoother. probably due to the increased ram it has.

one thing you can always consider though. 200$ is a good deal, and for what you can buy it for, if it turns out you cant achieve the experience you want on it... how hard will it be to just turn over to someone for the cost you paid? or even a bit more?

i cant really speak for the hd2 or desire hd phones, as i've not played with either. but i suspect the fact that you'll be using the tablet for different purposes would still make it a good buy. so far i think all the apps i have on my phone have ported over to my tab with no issues, seeing as how its pretty much the same OS version.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daedric:
Yes, i'm talking about the original Galaxy Tab. Not the new ones with Honeycomb :D

I'm in Europe, so no name mumbo jumbo for me. We have the Galaxy S, and the Galaxy S2. No Fascinates or whatever Verizon/Sprint/ATT/Tmouse chooses :D

(Thank god for that...)

I've come to accept that RAM is a major player on this OS. It's memory freak, but above a certain point, it's pointless of course (just like a PC).

As it stands, on 2.3.x, anything above 1gb is too much :D

200€ is a little too much above my budget. 150€ is the most i'll give, expecially for something that's probably 1 year old (i don't mean the release data, i mean the warranty)

I WOULD be using the tablet. It got sold (bummer) minutes after the OP.

Pitty.... but i'll keep looking... :D
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dav3yb:
ah... sorry about the dollar amount... i was doing a rough conversion. 150 euros is about 200 us dollars.

that's something that was kind of getting me discouraged about my search for a 7inch. the lowest price i found before the one i bought was i think 330 USD, which is about 100 more euros than your budget.

thats why the minute i saw the deal, i jumped on it right away.

one thing that seems to be unanimous though, is try and stay away from the wifi only versions of the tab, as they lack in updates (even from samsung), and have little to no 3rd party development.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daedric:
Message received and understood! No wifi.

Don't apolagize, i'm the one that should be.

Still, 150€/$200 is a very nice deal, i hope i can find one again.

BTW, how hard is it to sim unlock this things ?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dav3yb:
i couldnt tell you how easy it is to sim unlock the tab... mine is a verizon wireless version, and they dont take sim cards... and i think its locked into their network.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrew_Low:
GSM tabs are easy to unlock. Search the forums.

I've actually. Bought 3 of the original 7" tabs recently, all at or below $200 CDN. All were mint condition.

Why 3? Well. Friends keep wanting in on the great deal

The Galaxy tab, while older is still very capable. Compare it to the kindle fire or nook color at around the same price point.

Slap CM 7.1 or CM 9 and you're in a good spot.
[Android Apps and Games] cyberkid2002:
Hate, hate, hate the new layout and is actually really laggy on my S2. Does anyone have, or know where I can find, the last version before 3.0.0 as I would like to roll back.

My phone wouldn't charge the last couple days so I Unrooted and returned to stock, s-on. I used a PC36IMG to return to stock. I took the phone to Sprint and somehow it started working again. They said it wasn't the charging port and it wasn't the charger or battery. I also have 2 different chargers and 2 different batteries of my own I tried. Anyways they gave me the phone back and told me to give it a couple days to see if I have any more problems, he didn't do anything but it started charging again somehow. Anyways before I left he said it is rooted still, even though I thought I Unrooted, s-on and return to stock. Superuser is not installed. How can this be possible???

PS I rooted with revolutionary
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notorious:
That guy was way off unless he looked at your sd card no way he could tell it was rooted
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottypeterson:
I probably should have taken it out. I didn't have any file explorers installed so I figured he wouldn't be able to
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tropicalbrit:
Which HBOOT do you have? If it were the Revolutionary one it may have tipped him off. Also check your SD card. I've seen them go to Market and look at purchased apps and see if root apps were bought, so don't sync with Google. Run an RUU for good measure, take put the SD card and go back
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottypeterson:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottypeterson:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alxrock:
I would just let them know that any root apps that are synced to my Google account are for a tablet at home, an older phone, or some other BS.

To my understanding; if you take the stuff off your SD card, running Stock and have S-ON, there's really no way they could prove that you were rooted.

It's all about covering your tracks.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
The 6.17 hboot is what tipped him off. Stock hboot only goes up to 2.16, Revolutionary gives you a s-off'ed 6.16 hboot. Getting s-on with Revolutionary involves flashing the 6.17 hboot (which isn't stock) which is s-on. If you run the RUU for the latest update, you should get the 2.16 hboot back. You'll need it to re-run Revolutionary.
