[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] nukesnooper:
Anytime AT&T or Samsung offer a "security" update FOTA, I cringe. I'm on rooted Lollipop and absolutely have to remain rooted to use Total Recall call recorder (you can't imagine how many times it's saved my ass with baseless promises from AT&T and other utility vendors), so I'm always hesitant to upgrade to any FOTA's that may make it more difficult to either flash a better ROM, or other utilities that it might block. Call me paranoid, but I'm going to hold off and try to find a better solution to threats to my OS. Belarc Security Advisor (Free) is highly respected, and a non-conventional system scan that identifies real threats. Running it yesterday and just now; show no threats. I realize that Stagefright is a threat, but I'm running antivirus software that I trust and keep my phone backed up locally on a regular basis.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] billbillw:
Well, I also let it run. Figured worst case, it would be rejected due to root. It ran, no errors, still on root (using Flashfire method). Stagefright detector now shows my device is safe.

If you're using the Stock AT&T Lolipop, and Flashfire method for rooting, you will be OK to let the update run. It ran with no issues for me and it kept root.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] nukesnooper:
That's exactly how I did it. My only concern is that it may install patches that could further restrict future modifications.

I also just completed running Lookout and it found no threats or vulnerabilities. I'm staying where I am until I hear more feedback.

Thanks for your advice. I'll be keeping an eye on it.

UPDATED POST:

I upgraded with the install stock but "keep root" method, using flashfire...

The update failed at 29%.

I did a factory reset, and it still failed at 29%...

What are my options now?

Update:

I used Flashfire to install the tethering addon... I wonder if that is the culprit.

Installing without thethering... will update with results.

And It's a pain to download that ATT update each time. --- Their servers are SLOW!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] sahively:
Same story here. Update stops and phone reboots about a third of the way through. Defrosted all Samsung/AT&T bloat and tried again. Same story. Bummer.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] buggerritt:
I rooted my wife's 0C3 with Kingroot and tried to take the update. It failed.

Maybe I should try again since I just used triangle away to get rid of the "custom" nag at boot.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ClearD:
Yes. Rooted with flashfire, on oc3 bootloader. I ran the update through the normal OTA method, not trying to install it through flashfire. It worked fine and root stayed normal. Verified when titanium backup ran last night on its normal schedule.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Shanghai.Knight:
Well, it updated fine, using just the straight rooted rom, no additional flashes. No more fails at 29%...

It appears that adding in anything extra, de-bloat, hotspot enable, etc. will cause the update to fail.

/sk
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] sahively:
Reinstalled the rooted stock ROM and the update worked fine. Still have root. All is groovy.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Seanbest:
Any way to remove the tethering add on that I flashed so the update will flash successfully? I'd like to get it installed, but obviously the tethering add on won't allow it.

Also I don't want to reflash the entire ROM if I don't have to.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] royal2blue:
Which rom

Hello are you able to confirm which stock?

I have NJ4 to OC3 keep root method, OTA keeps prompting and failing daily.

Are you using I337UCUFNJ4 100% Stock Rooted ROM?

If not could you please point us to which stock rooted rom is working with this OTA, I appreciate it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] electricpete1:
I'm on stock I337UCUFNJ4 (4.4.4) rooted with towelroot (not flashfire).

1 - Can I expect the update to work? (without losing root)

2 - I hear a lot of discussion in this thread and the other threads about a tethering patch or zip. Is this just something for people that dont' have tethering included in their plan? (Tethering is included in the share data plan that I have... I use tethering and never had flashed any zip or patch for it).

Thanks in advance!

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AGISCI:
Sorry but IMEI changing is illegal in most countries nobody here can help you enter an IMEI into your phone.

If however you flashed a bad radio you could flash your stock radio and that might bring back your IMEI if it is missing.

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ac715:
Yes, like many before me I have made that mistake of ticking the system box when wiping my Sony Xperia z2 via twrp.

The issue that I face is this:

I no longer have a backup so cannot revert back. My phone is no longer rooted either so when trying to install my rooted firmware, twrp tells me to install supersu. When doing this the phone simply turns off.

I'm sure the simpliest way to get back up and running would be to flash a stock unrooted firmware in twrp, however I can't seem to find the relevant file to do this as also understand a ftf file cannot be flashed in twrp and must be done via flash tool.

I have downloaded a stock ftf firmware for my phone (D6503)

and flash tool, what I thought to be the latest version. ( 0.9.19.0 )

I have installed ticked all relevant boxes to install the drivers which windows tells me was installed correctly. However when connecting my phone to flash tool with volume down held, tells me no drivers are installed.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated as I'm slowly pulling my hair out

Adam
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr.loverlover:
Root isn't needed to install new system if you're already running twrp, so maybe you just have to use proper recovery.

And about the drivers. Are you on Windows 8 or higher? Because then you have to launch your pc without driver signature to properly install them.

Also how did you install them (did you use the ones included with flashtool)?

One more thing. The firmware version you've downloaded is pretty strange, make sure you've downloaded the correct one. It should rather start with something like 23.A......

Luckily not from an iPhone = Yesterdays technology at tomorrows prices
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ac715:
Thanks for the reply.

Sorry I didn't make myself clear, when I referred to the download I was on about the flash tool. My firmware is as you say 23.a etc. Its lollipop

I'm currently on windows 7. Yeah I went into the drivers that were provided with the program and installed them from there. I've still got the original file I used when rooting my device but when I wipe the cache etc and then flash the file, it installs fine but gets stuck in boot up. Just the purple background moving about.

I'm fairly sure it says my boot loader is locked too now as when I wiped everything I was also returned to stock, so not sure how to go about that or if that is my issue.

Thanks again

I know it was rumor and hear/say, but I was wondering if hope was still alive.
[Moto 360] nhizzat:
There is with third party apps
[Moto 360] BrandXman:
Tried the main one, Aerlink. It's a good attempt, I can't really critique as I have zero programming skills. I know the Pebble watch has good support, as do the many fitness trackers that seem to pop up every day.

I understand Apple doesn't want direct competition for their Watch, but still...
[Moto 360] LancerEvoDrifter:
right now, google confirms iphone support, but only for the LG Watch Urbane, maybe later we'll get support too. "There is a slight catch though. Android Wear for iOS currently works with the LG Watch Urbane, while future Android Wear watches (including ones from Huawei, Asus and Motorola) will come with built-in support for iOS. "
[Moto 360] BrandXman:
That sounds like a 2 part update. A software update for the watch, and an actual app for iOS. I say that because if it's just an iOS app, why make the app recognize only one type of Wear hardware and exclude other types of Wear hardware? I suppose marketing comes into play, wanting users to constantly upgrade their hardware.
[Moto 360] steve_bk:
Seems to be working if your 360 is running the latest update Android Wear 1.3, mine is still running the last update so can't confirm. I can confirm mine will not pair with the current version I am on Android Wear 1.1.1.2006643.

[Moto 360] BlazingGlory53:
Mine connected with 1.1.1.2006643, but it is draining the battery like no other. Now, I'm updating it to latest version with another phone, so I'll provide an update on how it works.
[Moto 360] Knight2011:
I had to remove it set it back up with my m8 to update it. With the watch connected to the iphone it would not update and the battery died very quickly.

after i updated it and resynced back to my iphone it seems fine. i'll give it a couple of days.
[Moto 360] rjohnstone:
I've been running my 360 with my iPhone 6 Plus for 24 hours now and so far the battery drain is marginal.

That is also probably due to me digging into the features and using the watch a lot more than normal.

Big note though, WiFi sync is not available on iOS.

The toggle is not visible on the watch either.
[Moto 360] BrandXman:
Just got this up and running, not bad really. Mine seems to disconnect and attempt to reconnect a lot, usually giving me some kind of notification on the watch, but when it is connected it works as expected.

Has anyone tried to pair the watch to both an android and an iPhone at the same time?? I bought a few watch faces while attached to a Nexus tablet, but then did a factory reset to get my watch to pair with the iPhone, effectively removing all of my watch add-ons. I'd like to get some back....
[Moto 360] BrumBrum74:
Tried to pair with both iPhone and Android and that's a no go.

Also tried to Factory Reset, install on Android with apps and watchfaces and unpair on Android before trying to pair with iPhone.

That was a no go as well.

Probably a way to pair with both possible but no solution yet it seems.
[Moto 360] mlmfilho:
Did it work?

How exactly did you update it to 1.3 with another phone? I've paired my moto360 with and Android phone and updated it but it won`t show on Android Wear iOS to pair...

It seems like Android Wear iOS installs the 1.1 whenever I pair it with moto360. 1.1 is draining my battery so fast it becomes a useless watch. It actually drains faster than the charger can charge.

S.u.c.k.s
[Moto 360] BrumBrum74:
Mine was draining battery like crazy. Updated my 360 and 2 resets later all seems like back to Normal with the battery.
[Moto 360] rjohnstone:
Android Wear for iOS does not modify the OS on your watch.

If your watch is on 1.3, it will not change.

You have to do a factory reset in order to pair it with iOS.
[Moto 360] BrumBrum74:
Found this on Reddit written by RobertJP:

First I found one to try LCARS Android Wear Watch Face LCARS Android Wear Watch Face

Then I used the Evozi APK downloader http://apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader/ to get the phone APK

Extracted the APK (like a zip file)

Found the APK meant for the watch (android_wear_micro_apk.apk) in the extractedapk > res > raw folder

Enabled ADB on the watch (Settings > About > tap Build Number I think 7 times which enabled Developer Options)

Swipe back to previous page, Open Developer Options

Tap ADB debugging to enable

Tap Check icon to enable it

You can now type adb shell on your computer which will give you a card on your watch to allow it

Once you have a prompt you can type exit and hit enter to get back to your computers prompt

From there you just type:

adb install /location/of/android_wear_micro_apk.apk

Once it is installed it will say so on the watch and will be available in the watch face selection carousel
[Moto 360] steve_bk:
This works for a USB cabled watch, Moto 360 won't work.

Works on iPhone 4s also. Or at least it is for me.
[Moto 360] x2h:
Here's my experience. With 1.1 watch os, won't work. Upgraded to 1.3. Can connect with iPhone 5s now. However, only google cards work, not other notifications from other apps. Reset it and went back with aerlink.
[General Topics] ethun:
TL;DR - What flagship should I get next that I can root and unlock?

After being on the 2013 Developer Edition of the Moto X since it's release, I think it's time for a new phone with some more power behind it. I've been rooted and unlocked for a couple years, switching between multiple ROMs and using Xposed modules, so the hope is unlocking the bootloader won't be a pain in the ass like it was on my old Galaxy S3.

I know several people who have the S6 (non Edge model) and love it and the build quality/features. After a bad experience with Samsung bootloaders, bloatware, and stuck in the legacy channel for ROM support, it makes me wary to give my love away to something I may hate long term. Personally, I'd opt out of the Edge screen.

The Moto X Pure is coming out in September and after having a great experience on Moto, it looks like a strong contender for me. The Pure will get updates first and come unlocked (what kind of bootloader will come on it- or do you install one yourself?). I could not care less about Moto Maker, but the camera sounds like a great upgrade.

We've all heard the hype about the One Plus Two and now that its out and reviews have been surfacing it's positioned as the device to beat. I'm on board since it runs Oxygen and has the best specs on paper. Getting an invite doesn't seem too difficult, but the limited supply creates an issue in acquiring one.

And then I have the Nexus 5 2015 whose specs just got leaked is the most notable I have to consider. Android M is slated to be released in October/November, and that is when I expect the handset will drop too. Almost every Android enthusiast has wanted a Nexus, with me at the top of the list.

With all of these considered, what should I get next?
[General Topics] Planterz:
Speaking for myself, I'm very much interested in the Moto X Pure/Style and the upcomming Nexuses. No interest whatsoever in the S6, and the OnePlus 2 isn't enough of an upgrade to make me want it instead of my OnePlus One. Speaking of which, don't ignore the OnePlus One. $300 for a brand new 64gb one, and it'll be a perfectly competent device for a good long while, plus you'll have custom development support at a level only matched/exceeded by Nexus devices.

As for what you should get next, I can't say. Not yet, without these new devices being released and reviewed. The OnePlus 2 has a better camera...on paper. Same for the Moto X Pure. But without reviews, who can say? Will the underclocked SD810 on the OnePlus 2 perform up to standards? Will it still overheat? Will it be better than the 801-AC on the OnePlus One? What about the 808 on the Moto X Pure? What rumored features of the Nexus 5 will actually come to fruition (and what it have that surprises us)? And what about the Saygus V2? WTF is going on with that phone?

Now is not the time to decide anything.
