Hey guys, what do you do with the AT&T over the air update? Disable?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] :
freeze the att updater with Titanium
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] MoReNitO303:
Now as far as any OTA updates i want/need, what is the protocol in getting them?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] :
You can't get them on a custom rom

I forget what I read on a custom recovery and rooted--getting older--:)

I think you need to go back to stock--someone can confirm

I haven't Googled that yet either

There were some rootkeeper apps that were used on my other phones, don't know what works here

I never took OTA's after rooted and flashing my other phones as dev's seemed to have updates faster than my carrier
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] mattdm:
Generally, the newer firmware versions that get pushed out as OTA updates will be incorporated into custom Touchwiz roms, such as ShoStock and Mint Jelly. However, if you flash CyanogenMod or any other AOSP-based rom such as SlimBean or AOKP, OTA updates will be completely meaningless. It's a different world altogether.

Either way, my advice is the same: Don't mess with OTA's. At best, they could give you the same features as a custom rom. At worst, they could kill the Loki exploit and lock your bootloader for good.

Is there any sure way of stopping these push notifications as they cost me £3 a time .

I have tried air push and it is clear but when I hold my finger on it to see what app is causing it , it just comes up with the sense messaging app and I cannot really uninstall that . Lol

Thanks in advance .

Root ur phone and uninstall the smspush.apk using link2sd

It states it's only for unlocked bootloaders but seeing as it's a zip I'd be tempted to just flash it.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
According to the rom thread, it contains DooMLoRD's Advance Stock Kernel v7 which is for unlocked bootloaders only (unless I'm missing something).

So, if the above is true, flashing that rom to a device with a locked bootloader would result in a soft brick.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madkoe:
Ok people, i'm trying to explain.

Last friday i was on track doing my weekly jogging session, with my n4 in the armband.

Actually on: data, bluetooth (connected with the polar hearthrate trasmitter), gps, runtastic pro, and this time for the first time Google Play Music streaming my collection.

After about 3,5Km, I tried to switch on the display to read an sms, but nothing, it didn't switch on.I haven't payed attention 'cause sometimes it tooks a while to go on, and everything was working fine (i mean music, runtastic and so on).

at the end of the session, the same, everything was fine, except the display, BLACK.

And that's my problem now.

My phone works, even the touch works (i can use it,feeling the onscreen vibrations), but no display,no way.

I did 5 forced reboots, but nothing.

I would like to ask you if could be something other than the display or I've to change it.

No rma, even if it has US warranty, actually i'm in Italy.

Thanks for your answers.

thats called sod, sleep of death. phone is on, but the display wont turn on. its not as common as it was for android 4.2-4.2.1, but still happen. do you undervolt? can you boot into the bootloader/recovery?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madkoe:
Stock ROM, only root.As I wrote in prec. post, display is always OFF, also when booting.so I suppose it could be a display issue, but i want to have some confirms
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
if the display is off while booting, its not sod, and probably a hardware issue. did you drop it? could it have gotten wet from excessive sweat or something?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nigeldg:
I was thinking sweat as well. If nothing comes up even in bootloader I think it must be a hardware issue of some sort.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
i think so too.. either something got wet, or got knocked loose.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madkoe:
yes.I'm gonna try to change the display... crossing fingers

Confirmed

Picked one up for a friend yesterday (I already have 2 Nexus (Nexi??) 7's). I didn't even have to mention the gift card, the system automatically rang up for $79.99, took some of the awkwardness out of the transaction.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] hondoslack:
It would seem not all cashiers are trained alike. When I got rang up yesterday (was able to get them to ship one in from out of state!), try as I might, I could not talk the cashier out of removing the stupid gift card. Tax even calculated on the discounted price, and they charged me for the gift card outright. Since the gift card is on a separate line, though, I am going to try and take it back at a different store, after I get my tablet.

Picked up an HD+ at the Loveland, CO store yesterday. It rang up as $99 -- no gift card issued or needed.

[Nook HD, HD+ General] padawan_lp:
I visited the nearest Office Max and they had announced the nook hd for $129 and a free gift card of $50 with e purchase, they had the nook hd+ full price, but I asked one of the sellers and he verified and indeed it was $99 for the one with 16GB and $129 for the one with 32GB but he also told me there wasn't any gift card involved.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] anqi2000:
The real problem is to find one in stock. Called all three stores around me but no luck...
[Nook HD, HD+ General] lisztophobia:
this was a nationwide officemax clearance sale on nooks. barnes & noble shut down the manufacturing of nook HD & HD+ in late june. B&N's CEO resigned a few days ago after the nook division revealed huge financial loss for the last quarter. he had come up from B&N's website division, and his mission as CEO was to achieve viability for the company as a seller of digital books. they are abandoning their higher end tablets now. no more B&N color tablets, although the black & white nook e-ink tablets seem to have avoided the axe. there's some talk about B&N possibly leasing the nook brand out to other manufacturers of color tablets, but it sounds kind of vaporware-ish to me until somebody actually announces such a product. this situation doesn't bode well for the future of the company at all.

officemax offered the 50 dollar gift card "with purchase of any nook HD or HD+" in their weekly ads and then apparently adjusted the cash register price down by 50 dollars (intended to eliminate the need for the gift card?). but there was enough confusion in the officemax stores about the ad ("is the customer entitled to the gift card or not, even after the 50 dollar discount that's showing on the cash register screen?") that a few people may have been able to walk away with a nook HD for as little as $30 or $50 if the stories told on fatwallet are to be believed. anybody who managed to swing that deal really hit the jackpot.

i visited a couple of nearby officemax stores and the employees seemed to have no clue about any of this. neither of the stores had any nook HDs in stock though. saleswoman at one store offered to look it up (she verified that the 8GB nook HD was currently priced at $80 dollars) and she sounded fully prepared to place an order for it on my behalf AND give me the gift card without any objections after i showed her the page i printed from the weekly ad. but alas the online inventory system would not accept any orders for nook HDs.

even without taking advantage of the officemax employees' confusion, $80-$100 is still a price that's hard to resist for a tablet like this, especially for ROM users like the people of the XDA forum. other retailers will probably follow suit very soon and clear out their nook HD & HD+ for about $100 (give or take a few dollars), but i doubt there will be any more mistakes like the "$50 discount + $50 gift card?" thing that a few customers benefitted from.

So I've received my HTC One and I am extremely pleased with it, there's just two questions that need clearing up for me.

The camera lens cover is a bit tilted. I have no idea if the actual sensor is also tilted or if it isolated to the glass. It seems off to me but does not seem to impact image quality, but should I get it replaced?

The camera also seems to make some sort of a click noise when I start it. Is this normal or is my One further defect?

Hi

I swapped from iOS to android purely because I liked the Xperia Z and have not been disapointed (had to JB the iPhone to make it look and work how I wanted, not so on android). I was not happy however to find I had to wait for 4.2.2 due to being unbranded, as I got a better deal on the phone from Car Phone Warehouse rather than direct from O2, so thank you for this update but since I completed the flash I cannot seem to get rid of the text "swipe up or down to unlock" from the lockscreen no matter how many times I have tried.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] csjasona:
Kit:

HTC One, Sim-free from O2, carrier lock screen, unlocked from network

Mac

Situation:

I want to get the OTA 4.2.2 (and subsequent updates) from HTC, rather than waiting even longer for O2 to process them.

I have already performed the following things:

1. unlocked bootloader

2. rooted phone

3. S-OFF'd

4. changed CID from O2___001 to HTC__001 (which is the correct one for non-carrier, non-branded in the UK, yes?)

The phone is all working, but the OTA update isn't yet showing as available.

Question:

1. Do I have to do anything else now or do I just wait a few days for my device to get into the list of devices that HTC will OTA 4.2.2 to?

2. Do I have to change the firmware (currently at 1.29.206.11)?

3. Do I need to do any black magic with an RUU?

BTW, I'm a noob with Droid, but know my way around UN*X.

Thanks :)

As reported by sammobile, a firmware named XWLSW has been also released for Switzerland with build date "June 2013".

But, unlike the UK firmwares with the same code, it seems to be multi-CSC as well as no-brand, so giving much more benefit in terms of more universal usage.

CSC code is OXXLSA.

Can anybody who installed it confirm that it is actually multi-CSC and please can post the list of countries of individual CSC's included in it?

Moreover and above all, comments about it will be highly appreciated.

Well, I downloaded and decompressed the firmware in order to retrieve the individual CSC's included in the multi-CSC OXXLSA of this firmware.

The list of CSC's is :

AUT=SWITZERLAND

CYO=CYPRUS

CYV=CYPRUS

DNF=FINLAND

EUR=GREECE

NEE=SWEDEN

ORG=SWITZERLAND

ORS=SLOVAKIA

TPH=PORTUGAL

XSK=SLOVAKIA

Some countries are repeated due to supposed "brand" and "no-brand".

The country names were derived from inside the .xml file of each CSC.

Therefore, it is actually a multi-CSC but without ITV for Italy no-brand, as I hoped. :crying:

Can somebody tell me an effective and secure method to install this firmware but keeping (or restoring) my current CSC (ITV)? My current firmware is XWLSD stock no brand Italy.
