I did mine a little different way, when you have the system update notification icon, swipe down to get to the quick menu, hold the tap on the system update notification bar, and a little bar with "app info" will show up, tap that and then uncheck "show notifications". no more annoying icon telling you to update.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ldubs:
Uh Google services framework handles way more than ota updates. Don't think you want to disable notifications on that.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davucini:
Can you give me an example of what important notification I would be missing? Disabling notifications doesn't stop Google Services Framework from running. According to my research, there are but one or two other notification dialogs associated with Google Services Framework, and they aren't very informative. I have been using this method for my last 3 phones and haven't missed being notified of anything necessary for me to use my phone.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] shucrut:
Hi,

I am searching all week for some root method that don't trigger knox

I found 2 possible solutions, but none of them worked for me, maybe work for someone else so..

The 2 solutions are: vroot and kingoapp. I will not post links here because some people do not completely trust them, they are not open source, they CAN get some information about your phone that them actually don't need to do the rooting, etc. I used vroot in my L9 and it works, but installs a chinese app that i kickly get rid off, but anyway:

First of all: Some steps must be followed due to security enhancements on 4.2+. You must have adb 1.0.31 ()

-Extract the downloaded zip to a folder

-In your phone, go to Settings/More/About Phone> tap 6 times in Build Number and a pop should appear saying you are a developer

-Go back to Settings/More/Developer Options and check the USB debugging box

-Run cmd, navigate to the folder you extrated and run:

adb devices

-You must see a prompt in your phone, this is to trust the PC your are using to run the adb commands, check the box and this message will not appear anymore when you use that PC

-Download one of the apps i commented above (Windows only, i think), the two are very similar. You can also try both, maybe one of them work. For me none of them worked but maybe someone have more lucky than me

-Open the app, if the adb steps were successful, it should recognize your phone and show the model (vroot) or just asking for root (kingoapp). Vroot is in chinese, but if your phone is recognized, it should show the phone model and a green button appear in right bottom.

-Click on the green button in vroot or in ROOT in kingoapp to start the rooting proccess. I saw a video this is being done in a Note 3 and the phone rebooted about 3 times. I think if your phone reboot more than that, the method fails.

After the reboots you can install Root Checker and see if it worked. Feedback about root the new 4.3 firmware are more than welcome and, as i said, for me none of these worked, but you can try it out
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] LucasBass:
Doesn't work for me too, I have already tried universal root de la vega also (doesn't work with exynos chips), kingo also doesn't work, I will try Vroot tonight but i don't think it will work. We must wait for another root method to root without triggering knox or universal root de la vega for exynos.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] wireless_one:
Ok, I've spent the entire day sifting through thread after thread of posts, and I am now throughly frustrated :( . Can someone put together the definitive authority of upgrading all of the various components of the Wizard? I find threads about ROMS, and Extended Roms, and Unlocking, but nothing in one place and very few actual files. I know it may be excessive, but when I upgraded my Wallaby to WM2003SE, it seemed so simple. With $600 invested in my new QTEK 9100 (and no provider to send it back to in case it locks up completely), I'd like a little hand holding through the process. :D

If someone could spend the time (which I would even contribute to financially) to explain, step by step, how to do the following in one topic, I would be in Wizard heaven: :lol:

Take a Qtek 9100, ROM Version 1.1.7.5, ROM Date: 9/22/05, Radio Version 01.01.10, Protocol Version: 4.0.13.16, ExtROM Version: 1.1.7.105 and:

(1) upddate each of those items;

(2) upload/link the necessary files/programs to accomplish this

(3) provide opinions of the various ROMs/ExtROMs; and

(4) list of tweaks and explaination of how to do them, as well as any programs needed to accomplish this.

I really would appreciate this, and speaking for those out there who get as equally lost/frustrated/scared/confused about doing this, I know others would as well.

TIA for anyone willing to take this task on! I hope for a speedy response as I would like to start personalizing this phone but don't want to have to do it again a week from now.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luke10702:
Hello I'm having the hardest time deciding if I should wait to upgrade since the galaxy s5 and htc one/two are right around the corner or if I should just get the G2 for Christmas. The G2 seems like a great phone but it also seems to have it's fair share of issues, I'm worried that something much better might come out within a month or two. Anyway just looking for advice thanks!

Seriously what issues?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luke10702:
I've been reading through some of the forums and heard that external speakerphone has very low decibel levels,camera video is poor quality due to shaky focus, and the knock-ON feature doesn't work reliably. One other thing that concerns me is android development behind the phone since it's not that popular. Also the design could be better but the screen is gorgeous.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] insang-droid:
My 2c. There is no perfect phone. IPhone, Samsung, lg, HTC, they all have their quirks and disappointments. But it's matter of if you can find a way to overcome it.

Camera is fantastic. And you being here means you are willing to do more than just complain. Root, remove bloat, update camera app. Knock 3 times instead of 2.

And personally if you do more than just play with your phone, ie use for work. Custom ROM other than modified stock ROM will just be way too buggy.

My honest opinion is that they are really 3 viable Android phones out there. The Sony Z, nexus5 and G2. After having gone through several Samsung phones, I'll never buy another Samsung.

Between the 3 above get the lg if battery life is important to you. Because that is the only thing you absolutely cannot change.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luke10702:
These are all good points, just one more question then, if roms you think will be too buggy how is lg at updating to the latest version of android?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harmonyxda:
LG G2 is an outstanding choice for now, IMHO.

I realized that no matter how attractive a new phone's reviews or announcements get, there would always be a few minor issues or dislikes rising up after a couple of weeks hands-on playing. Phones are not designed by end users and LG team got to stick with their budgets and timeline.

G2 camera appeared very impressive me. "Optical" image stabilizer is a bonus point making the difference - simply with default app and settings, it can make awesome low-light/indoor photos. I was able to take a few decent photos when lights were really dim. Read some posts about its focusing speed as capturing moving objects in low lighting; no chance to try that yet but that task sounded quite a challenge to any phone cameras.

The only two issues caught my attention in daily uses are the screen flickering happening in certain places caused by the so called content adaptive back-lighting, and the brightness sensor output. Both are only noticeable in low-light settings and easy to work around them. Some said the content adaptive lighting is due to JB 4.22 OS. Hope a firmware/OS update will soon refine the g2.

G2 feels an ambitious and strong strike from LG. As a flagship model, the design and implementation could be further polished if bosses gave the team more time to work on it, well then we probably had to pay more bucks for having one... :D

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppcpirate:
I was in the same boat as you 2 weeks ago, but AT&T changing their prices on the family plan forced me to get the LG G2. Some of the concerns I had before getting it are somewhat still there, especially the camera performance in low light. I haven't had any battery drain issues yet and so far battery life has been fantastic. back buttons aren't that bad, the placement makes sense sometimes, especially when you are on a call. knock on/off feature is great as well but as others have said, it doesn't work 100% of the time. Overall, it's a fantastic phone & i'm glad I got it.

Don't torture yourself by waiting. This phone is a beast...AND I've yet to install a custom ROM!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robogo1982:
Yes, the speaker is a little bit tinny, but it's not that quiet, I'd say it's fine. Camera video focus problems happen occasionally, nothing that a camera firmware update won't fix. Knock On works fine when you get the hang of it. This phone has a bunch of ROMs, but to be honest - you don't really need them. I got this phone and I left it completely stock and just rooted it - it's THAT good.

What's wrong with the design? I think it's a good looking phone.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luke10702:
So it seems like it's an amazing phone but how do you think it will compete going into 2014??
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harmonyxda:
Same here stock rooted; was thinking about a prettier launcher replacement but like to stay with some of the stock features. Always use the knock on without touching the power button now - very convenient design.

That was just purely experience sharing for your reference. You'll get a great phone in either case.

My plan-renewal credit was available since July but htc one or s4 didn't make the urge for me to upgrade the phone, until last month I grabbed the G2 with a price tag of $50.
[Sprint LG G2] runningnak3d:
I am making a separate thread specifically for Sprint because I have seen so many posts from Sprint users that took the OTA update, and I don't want this to be buried in the other thread.

If you have a Sprint G2, then you have to wipe the fota partition AND the misc partition.

Thanks so much to autoprime from #lg-g2 for pointing me in the right direction.

adb shell
cd /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name
dd if=/dev/zero of=./fota
dd if=/dev/zero of=./misc

If you can't get adb to talk to your phone and only have the terminal from TWRP, then you will have to type the paths out -- make sure you get them right :)

Right now it is between the HTC One Max and the Moto X. Please give your honest opinions of the Max, I'll be eternally grateful!!

[HTC One Max] oneandroidnut:
HTC one max man. If you liked HTC one you will love this thing. Screen blows Moto x away but phone is big. If you don't like the added size it won't be a good phone for you. If a big phone doesn't bother you go for the max!!
[HTC One Max] Kwongger:
Thanks. How does it compare to the Note III? I may also consider that.
[HTC One Max] oneandroidnut:
I like both. They both have their pros and cons. I will make a full list of pros and cons in morning for ya I'm tired now lol
[HTC One Max] svt54:
That's the two I am considering as well. I honestly like the size of the Note 3 better, but I am HTC guy to the bone. I have owned about 8 of them. I like sense alot more than Samsung's touchwiz garbage. If someone could make a HTC Sense rom work on a Note 3, my decision would be made, LOL.
[HTC One Max] ToneyEricsson:
I like the Note III it could be the phone to pull me away from HTC
[HTC One Max] Kwongger:
No problem, Thanks!

I dislike Touchwiz as well. I haven't used Samsung since the Epic 4G lmao.

I don't know.... The back is what I despise, the leather-textured plastic crap don't cut it for me.
[HTC One Max] oneandroidnut:
Pros and cons for both phones....

HTC Pros:

Screen size, clarity and brightness

Signal wifi and LTE are great just like every htc device

Aluminum body/build quality these are top notch

Sense UI i absolutely love sense over any other android ui so big pro for me

Speakers once again boom sound speakers will blow any other phone out there out of the water

Sdcard not often we see an htc with an sdcard

HTC Cons:

Size. phone is huge im 6'4" with big hands and i can barely reach everything i need to. But it is basically a two hand device for the majority of people

Camera doesnt have OIS and only a 4 up i have never been a big fan of the whole up movement and dont think the pictures are terrible but not as good as others (aka note 3, s4, etc)

Little features it lacks as well compared to note 3 would be s pen, multi windows, high screen sensitivity for use with gloves little things like that

Development. While the phone does have s-off, unlocked etc etc there is no roms for verizon you can use xposed all you want but no custom roms

Somewhere in the middle

Battery. While the battery life is great always lasted me a full day from when i get up til i go to bed would be nice if you could remove battery and replace with a charged one but not a huge deal

Note 3 time....Pros:

Screen size and ppi while it is not as bright as htc one max it does have like a 13 ppi higher not a big deal here though lol

Removable battery and sdcard, nice to have both and battery lasts just as well as htc one max

Camera the 13mp shooter does better then htc i think and also 4k video not available on any other device

Little features as mentioned above. s pen, multi windows, high screen sensitivity for use with gloves, ambient temp/humidity sensor little things like that are nice to have especially now in the winter lol

Development (for me at least) i have developer edition so i have unlocked bootloader and full recovery and access to tmobile and verizon roms and kernels. Now the verizon retail does have safestrap and multiple roms to choose from

Note 3 Cons:

Speaker. I will be honest it straight up sucks! worst i have ever heard i think my first android phone the droid x was better it is awful and after hearing htc one and one max they ruin you lol

Signal. wifi is always giving you connection unstable and bogs down. lte isnt terrible but isnt as good as previous s4 and htc one of course

Somewhere in the middle

Touchwiz ui not a diehard fan of it like i am sense but very nicely done

Build quality. not bad at all but not quite up to par with htc one and one max. fake leather back isnt bad but black does feel better then white.
[HTC One Max] wase4711:
why dont you just go to a sprint store and look at the 2 yourself?

I never understand why people don't just do things on their own and make up their own minds...

Asking this question in a htc max thread will obviously get you people who say they love this phone, so not sure what you expect to accomplish by asking this here...

[HTC One Max] pradeepvizz:
[MENTION=5297338]oneandroidnut[/MENTION] nice post thanks :)

i would still suggest not adding the size as a con.. its the size which is a pro for this device, ppl who buy the device majorly love big screens. Screen is a turn off for me with saturated colors, that's again personal like the size.

and the camera, i won't say its the best camera, however, it is the best usable camera practically. Low light pic's blow out any other phone and due to the bigger size of the phone, users hold the phone real solid before taking the pic resulting in a better picture without OIS. Zoe/Highlight + themes + music = beautiful stuff in Sense 5.5

development is slow to start off, but HTC seems to do a better job than Samsung at the stock, which counts for stock users :)

S-pen & other gimmicks are genuine feature that is not there on the MAX however S-Pen is not useful for me and many other note users who have migrated from Samsung.
[HTC One Max] oneandroidnut:
i agree that i like the size but phone will way to big for the majority of people. and the screen has the best colors of any display to me. the amoled samsung are the over saturated ones.

camera is better in low light but thats about it. my note 3 are sharper and better for just normal light photos.

we will see i hope development picks up on one max i could use a custom rom or two

while i may not need it, it is nice to have. i can use note 3 with s pen if my hands are all nasty, if i have gloves on, etc etc while max or others i cannot. and trust me multi window is nice and not a gimmick
