Click Stop if its running then Disable.

See if that works.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RampageRR:
Thanks, already tried that, for some reason it kept popping up. I ended up rooting, and renaming the app with a .bak extension, and rebooting. Seems to have gone away now. Thanks for pointing me to the right app though.

It ended up stopping popping up for me without really needing to do anything. Not sure what if anything changed but I never rooted or did any of the steps mentioned in the thread.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Gadgetz:
What worked for me is just let it do it's thing, don't hit cancel. A pop up will come up asking you if you want it to check or sync with AT&T address book next time, paraphrasing here, click no. Done. Now when I got into my contacts it doesn't come up anymore.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] EskimoRuler:
I did the same thing and it never came back up for me. This was before I was rooted. Even after I don't get it anymore
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RampageRR:
No clue. I let it do its thing probably 10 times and it never went away. Now that I rooted and removed anything related to AT&T, it doesn't come up anymore. I have no idea why my phone was being so stubborn with it.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Sleestax:
I am getting ready to root my SGS3, and so I went to update the latest PRL and stuff before doing it. When in the system update section, there is no longer an option (that I could find) to turn off Sprint pushed updates. I don't want to lose root or have to re-root every time Sprint pushes out an update.

Does anyone know how to turn it off? Am I just missing something really obvious? On Gingerbread, there was a select box for "allow automatic updating", but I don't see anything like that on ICS 4.0.4. (at least, not the Sprint ROM).

A little help?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tkemack:
You should be fine. On my epic touch, you would get an update notification and then you would have to accept or deny it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] knives of ice:
anyone know how to stop this?

i'm tired of getting this update notification when i know it won't install
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] chconser:
FOTAkill. Hasn't been tested on the SGS3 afaik, so use at your own risk. Worked great on the S2, OG EVO, & EVO 3D for me & others. Must be rooted, might not work with odex'ed ROMs.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mercado79:
If you open up Titanium Backup, there's an entry called System Update. I just froze that app. Let's see if that blocks the update.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] knives of ice:
Yeah I tried that definitely doesn't work. Neither did freezing the fw app. I also deleted the file that downloaded no luck there either

---------- Post added at 07:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:49 PM ----------

Damn this didn't work either
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] chconser:
Did you try pushing it to system & fixing permissions? Like I said, it's doubtful it will work with an odex'ed ROM.

EDIT: Don't forget to reboot. :)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] oingo456:
This works for me, I kept disabling things till I found it and narrowed it down:

1. Install "system tuner" by 3c

2. Go to "Startups"

3. Scroll down to "google services framework" and tap it

4. UNCHECK anything to do with "SystemUpdateService"

update.systemupdateservice$secretcodereceiver

suppressing upgrade notification prevents phone from sleeping

I changed my mind, my advice causes problems. Although this stops the update notification, it seems to keep the phone from sleeping once you get a notification. So your battery will be OK for a week or so.. and then all of a sudden your phone will not sleep. If you undo the above, then wait a few hours, you will see the update notification pop up. Then you can accept or decline it and your phone will then be back to normal (it won't burn through the battery.)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mackentosh:
accept it and it should take you to recovery once you get to recovery it'll ask if you want to install unknown file do not go any further just reboot the phone and the notification will temporarily go away for while

cant rename , says because the file system is read-only

nevermind clicked r/w to r/o.hehe then it worked
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jonneyblue:
This will stop it with no problems

Download System tuner then select the startups menu option. Once in the startups sub menu go down to Google services framework and select it, do not un-check it just click on it and go into sub menu. Once your in un-check the update.systemupdateinstalldialog box and that should do it. only un-check that box.

Hi,

I've attempted the JB update

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1737899..

fastboot flash boot boot.img etc.. which said all was well..

But now find that my phone will not boot up, doesn't get past the Google and unlock screen.

I've tried all combinations of volume buttons, I can get to the fasboot menu where I can choose either Recovery Mode, Power Off, Start or Restart bootloader.

None of these appear to do anything, recovery goes to the google a screen followed by an Android on it's back with an exclamation mark over it.. then goes to the Google and unlocked icon screen and stays there...

I fear my phone is bricked... Please help..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
1.) Your phone is far from bricked at all. You have access to the boot loader (i.e. the screen with the options). The recovery you're seeing is stock recovery. All you need to do is go into boot loader and fastboot flash recovername (CWM) and you will have your custom recovery back to wipe data and reinstall a rom or restore a nandroid backup
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] collindubya:
Mine is doing the same thing, weird thing is, it was working since yesterday on jellybean, it just randomly froze this morning and and now won't boot..

im currently at work so i don't have admin rights to do a fastboot flash..

any idea why it would randomly stop working when i havn't flashed anything on it besides the jb rom?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bevnet:
Sorted..

Thanks for the comments.. yeah i was over-reacting a bit there..

I downloaded the Galaxy Nexus Toolkit, got a stock rom form gopogle, flashed it.. back to normal, well, it will be after i restore the CWM backup i took.. phew..

Thanks again

[GT540 Optimus General] ArchieBall.:
Hi All!

I am a great fan of this forum, Android and my GT540.

I first rooted my phone when is had 2.1, then shifted to the LeWa custom roms and then after the recent update to Miroslav_mm's Project IceScreamSwift I "bit" the bullet and installed this ROM.

Miroslav is an absolute genius, this ICS 4.0.4 ROM is so smooth. I used a 256 MB swap file on my class 4 micro sd and overclocked to 825 Mhz and this thing flys :laugh: I can't believe this GT540 can keep up with the industry's best. The only down side is the 3" screen :( Thanks Miro!!! Great work.

Anyway, back to my topic. Sadly my SD card reader is not working. I have read on the net that this is a common problem. I wonder whether the swap file had anything to do with it or was it the latest ROM I installed? I'm just wonder whether anybody else had the same problem and is the situation recoverable?

I am going to try and test the card on by PC using and adapter to see if the card is actually gone but I firmly believe it is the reader on the phone since it is not registering or giving any errors. When I tried to mount using the recovery menu it stated no such file or directory.

I read one guy stating that his reader started to work again after some time pasted for no apparent reason. I hope mine does the same :)

I look forward to your comments. Thanks!
[GT540 Optimus General] pahb22:
I had kind of a same issue, i was using Miros 4.0 ICS ROM, but went back to SDSL 2.1, i had partitioned my sd card before to have native swap of 256 mb, when i tried to flash SDSL 2.1 by Recovery, it would flash it and all, but it wouldnt install it correctly, every time i tried to reboot the ROM, i got stock on Silver SDSL logo, then i would go back to recovery to try and flash it again, and recovery wouldnt read my sd, i would say E:/ is bad, so i thought i might have been my sd card reader, after flashing by fastboot, there was no problem with my sd card, i was able to use it normally, then i tried to flash it again by recovery but same problem, recovery wouldnt read my sd card, i tried using another SD card and it worked on recovery, so i think something happen to my other SD card when i went back from Miros ICS to SDSL 2.1, the card works correctly but i cant flash any rom using recovery with that SD card.

Hope this helps!
[GT540 Optimus General] ArchieBall.:
Thanks for sharing your experience!

I will give it a try and let the community know if its :good: for me too.
[GT540 Optimus General] ArchieBall.:
Bad news people. The above didn't work for me. I tried several different ROMs (including flashing the standard ROM) but no luck.

The SD card reader seems to be "dead". The funny thing was that when the SD card disappeared after a few days use of Miros latest ICS ROM (June.2012) it was still working very smoothly despite the lack of the 256MB swap file and SD card. Ofcourse many of the installed apps disppeared too. Now that my sd card doesn't work I can't go back to the ICS ROM since it is only available in "recovery" form. Does anyone know if a "fastboot" form exists?

Now that I have lost the SD card feature I will not be able to use the phone anywhere near its full potential. Very sad indeed. Time for a new phone :cool:

Unless anybody else has a solution for the above......the moral of the story is be very careful with ROMs and SD card usage as pointed out by our esteemed developers.

Just for reference only, my last setup when the SD reader was working was (2 GB SD) partitioned as follows:

partition 1: data 1.5 GB

partition 2: ext4 0.25GB for Link2SD

partition 3: swap 0.25GB
[GT540 Optimus General] andreas__:
Hm you already tried to clean the SD ston on your phone ? maybe it just bacame dirty with the time.
[GT540 Optimus General] ArchieBall.:
Thanks for the comment andreas! but could you please explain the meaning of "SD ston"?

If you mean the pins in the reader, they appear to be clean.
[GT540 Optimus General] andreas__:
oops :( slot of course :D yeah okay
[GT540 Optimus General] ArchieBall.:
Just and update for those interested. ;)

I finally got my hands on an external card reader and discovered my 2 gb card is actually dead. I remember taking a about 30 photos that day when it had the newly installed Miro's ICS and noticed it locked several times. I don't know if that had anything to do with it. Anyway, my PC did not recognize the card had been inserted so I couldn't reformat/revive it.

I tried to insert a new 4 gb card into my phone today again (previous attempts failed) but before doing so I carefully bent the connectors in the card reader slightly outward, inserted the card, jammed a piece of paper under the clip (so it would press down and make good contact) and believe it or not it read the card :) I have since installed "AOKP 4.0.4 ASIS b40" and loven' it. :D

Flash kernel again.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Red Lap:
Try starting it in Flashmode and re-lock the bootloader (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1134335) so you can restore your phone with SUS or PC Companion
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] D4rkBlade99:
but i just realised i didn't set the debugging mode on
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Red Lap:
That's not incompatible with connecting the phone in flash mode (I think). Try and tell us the result (extract the battery, put it back, press Back button while you connect the phone to the computer and you have Flashtool opened)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
That is only for officially unlocked BL's.

What does debug mode have to do with kernel?:confused:

Anw, just flash stock kernel, whether with fastboot.exe or with flashtool.

No need to flash entire firmware.

Now after that, say which kernel are you trying and how are you flashing it on your phone.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] D4rkBlade99:

Change all priveligies to rw- r-- r--

nothing responds but gmail that disapears from app launcher (but wont install new apk)
