[Q] OTA Update Prompting - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I keep getting Nagged for an update. Anyone know how I stop it from asking. It keeps trying and trying.

Have you already got the first OTA? If so then we need to get a copy of the OTA that you are being asked to install.

What are your current build number and software number under about phone?

are you the same cdma over at android forums by any chance?

yep. I finally got my phone rooted again after many tries but now I seem to get a request to install an update and this time I am not going to take the chance and losing root. Does anyone know where that update sits on the phone?

CDMA, I (as well as many) know how to do this. HOWEVER, your claim MAY be valuable, hence why all the questions, and not answers to your thread. Do us a favor and screenshot your build number/software info for us. (under about phone of your settings menu). If everything checks out, we can continue to help you block the OTA updates.
What is odd is you getting prompted for OTA this late in the game. Unless you have recently applied an older RUU, you should not be getting prompted for OTA. Please provide this info. Thanks.

In that thread didn't you say that you are a tester for Verizon or something and that you got the latest update that supposedly provides 720p, wireless hotspot, etc? If so are you saying that you have rooted even after that update? If that's the case then the Unrevoked root method has not been patched by the latest update.

Cdma,
If this is the new ota then this is great news. Please post your build number and if you haven't already flash the clockworkmod recovery using unrevoked's reflash. Then we can pull the ota and unrevoked can make it root safe.

cdma head on over to the irc channel and we can help you get the ota off your phone

Hey guys. Check your asses and see if there's any smoke being blown up it. Ya?

Did you ever try and RUU back to stock? You said you were gonna give it a shot...

I didn't want to really get into this because I could be wrong, but I work for Verizon Wireless. I looked around the pages of information we had to see if maybe there was a planned OTA update for the Incredible. We normally get warned in advance for any software updates that are being pushed to the phone. Needless to say, I wasn't able to find any information after some thorough digging. I figured that maybe this was a test that HTC was doing before releasing it to us. I asked some reps from HTC that were showing off the Incredible that day and they hadn't heard of any update coming for the Incredible. They said they would shoot me an email if they heard anything, but I never heard back. So, maybe it is true, but I'm still doubting it until I see something in writing about it.

Seeing as how we cant get a screenshot im sort of feeling its either the original OTA or total bull****. Would love for it to be neither but if i had i would find a way to get it in to the brilliant hands of our developers. I know id like to be the guy who blessed the many members of XDA with 720p video and that sweet new boot animation.(and mainly a way to keep root) Anyway ill stop my rant as thats not my style.

I recall another user named "cdma" over at androidforums who claimed he worked for VZW and was sent a OTA to "test". Why start a new thread two weeks after posting on another forum about similar subjects. What are you fishing for?

Novice w/ New Evo 4g wanting to flash it to Boost But...

I know i'm not the only one but i'm like a kid waiting for Christmas. In short, I bought a new Evo 4G used, its not even 2 weeks old. Gingerbread is on it (4.22.651.2) and im waiting for the ability to root /unroot [which way im not sure] and last i was told its Ruu is not made or found yet. Please make this an easy transition and let me know here if the Ruu is created and if the steps will be different than the other steps you've guys shown here and on youtube, please! Also, I'm paying for Boost's blackberry service (60 bux a month) which i won't need when i get the Evo 4G going. I would be over grateful for your patience and consideration. Also, i did do my due diligence to look for all the info and tried several rooting options i.e.: Unrevoked3 and so on, with no luck.
Thanks!!

If you would have looked harder (sarcasm), you would have found that there is not root method for the newest OTA update. There are dozens of threads pointing this out.
Thanks, tgruendler [re-sarcasm] I did indicate that i knew the OTA wasn't able to be rooted yet HOWEVERm if it did come about if it could be posted here, i'd Highly appreciate it since there is a TON of information throughout the site! Yet, Thanks for the Razzin'

here is my issue, i have an evo 4g wich i have had since december 2010, and i never rooted my phone, and recently upgraded to the new OTA gingerbread version of android. i pay the 30 dollar a month feature for wifi hotspot to sprint, but then a friend of mine told me a few days ago that he had his phone rooted by some guy and he uses wifi hotspot without having to pay. i would like to break free from this money paying burden but the the guy who did my friends rooting is not available anymore so i m left to doing it by myself. so can you fellow evo users help me please. i m lost and i dont know where to start first. guide me to the light please so i can see the light too. please please. i would be forever indebted to you all.

Unfortunately because you a running the newest gingerbread OTA you cannot root yet.
Sorry, but if you took the ota you're going to have to wait man. A root method hasn't been found yet for it. Maybe tomorrow or a month from now but I'm sure there will be a way soon.

If you're not on gingerbread and you're s-off then you can just use unrevoked, yes.
Not sure if this will work, but you could try flashing back to 2.2 with An older ruu file you rename PC36IMG through your bootloader, then you could root from there. Heard this worked, not sure though...

Lol well if it ends up messing up your chances of an exploit there's always Colorado This is why I'm sending mine to Sonic. I don't want to have to worry about this kind of BS from Verizon anymore.
Also, has anyone experienced lock ups at all? I haven't.
No update for me checking manually. When it does come through, we can pull the update.zip and post it here and make a flashable update for those of us unlocked and still on Sense.

So what's the bottom line for those of us with locked-down phones? If we still hold out hope for an exploit, even after 4.3 drops, is it advisable to refuse this OTA when it shows up on our phones?

Yes, defer the OTA as long as possible until we know that there is indeed no pending exploit waiting until after 4.3 release.
Nobody take it. You do not know what they fixed or if HTC found some exploit already.
When they say they will include ISIS, is that with tap and pay? From the other thread I had come to understand tap to pay would not work because we do not have a Secure Element in our NFC, unless you get a SIM with this included. Or is ISIS different?
IF you want a CHANCE at root
do NOT take ANY OTA..
Rule of thumb
I have two wishes from this update.
1. Fix the camera.
2. A Dev ports it for us people who are S-OFF'd or rooted.
edit: Or I guess I could have read the patch update text from Androidpolice.com. Boo.
Camera fix isn't until 4.3 update according to HTC.

In all likelihood, you already have one. Unless you're using a SIM from your phone from like two years ago, its been replaced. My GN had a secure SIM in it. Here's an article describing it: LINK Then of course, from what Ive read ISIS still only works reliably in the test markets in Utah and Texas.

Its entirely possible. I don't think we'll see the 4.3 update for 2-3 weeks. I'm going to be sending my phone to sonic tomorrow after work so I won't have to worry about losing root but I wouldn't accept the update until after 4.3 is released if you want to have a chance at exploits.

Sent from my HTC6500LVW using xda app-developers app
Indeed there is. There is another thread discussing it but basically it updates the stability and some other things. Some also think that some security holes could have been patched. It's not really a useful update for us that contains any new features so you're better off not taking it and just waiting for a patched version if available.
Sent from my HTC6500LVW using xda app-developers app
I would say this goes without saying but for the amount of responses I've seen this thread should be stickied... I don't think people understand how bad of an idea is.

Lol I wholeheartedly agree. I've lost count on the posts I've seen about this type of thing, all cause they had no idea what the consequences are.
So basically the devs need to see if the exploit is patched in the new update. If it is, then they release it to us on 4.2.2, If it's not patched then we all move to 4.3 together?

Live I've said before, I don't see why devs would be interested in rooting or unlocking this new OTA or the current version most of us are running. If there is a break through it is most likely to happen after the 4.3 update. What would be the point in discovering an exploit that could be instantly patched in 4.3?
So i have SuperSU Pro, I should be saved from any OTA updates, as it wont download any updates for me unknowingly.

I feel like also on the off chance that when 4.3 does come out, that if the exploit they were saving does get patched along with it, then us on 4.2.2 would at least be able to use it. I personally am bootloader unlocked from day 1 but if I were locked I would stay on 4.2.2 until I hear a solid confirmation that an exploit is available on future updates before taking it.
That's all taking into account that there really is an exploit that they're saving until 4.3 lol.

There have been several mentions of the exploit by various trusted members here on XDA. Members don't generally attach their name to BS comments. I think there is a root method but last I heard it needed work. Obviously we won't know if this last update that fixed "stability issues" that no one had patched anything but I wouldn't be surprised.
There should just be a giant splash banner on the main forum page that reads: Welcome to XDA! Don't Accept OTAs!!
My phone just tried to update. I turned my phone off really quick and when it started back up, I put my phone on airplane mode. Apparently I upset the download and it finally stopped
I don't understand why everyone on XDA who has a Verizon HTC One doesn't send it to Sonic and get S-OFF. Then, you NEVER have to worry about OTAs, possible exploits being plugged, etc. S-OFF is the holy grail of every possible exploit and we have it available to us now. :good:

Smooth lol. I guess that's an option for anyone opting to not send their phone off at least. I'd think it'd get annoying after awhile. Hopefully it doesn't try to force OTA often.

[Q] Ways to prevent new OTA (33 MB) from installing after it's downloaded?

So apparently VZ pushed out the update to my phone this morning. When I saw it, it was just finishing "downloading firmware". Damn. Then it asked to schedule a time to install. For now I put 11 pm tonight and did NOT check the install automatically box.
Is there anything I can do at this point to ensure it won't install?

That's good to hear... So the process won't go ahead unless you manually click yes? I definitely did not click the "install automatically" box. But my past experience with VZ OTA updates was that they will push it through regardless if they wish (thinking back to the Thunderbolt update that took away free tethering). Basically, there would be very short window (say one a minute or so) where you had to deny the update process. The thing was, VZ would pop up these requests at random time intervals, seemingly disregarding the scheduled time you set. It was just downright mean...
Mine started up this morning too. Definitely don't want this. I'm completely stock and locked down myself.

What phone did you have before? you could use that for a few days
A reboot stopped the annoying notification about the update for me.

I thought about that, but I'm in no hurry to start switching ROMs especially after reading about people not being able to make calls all of a sudden. Granted there was a fix found, but it's just too much work for me. Besides, this phone won't be locked down forever.

I'm getting the nag every few minutes now too. It sucks. I'm locked too. I've tried quitting tons of things to stop it. No luck.
you guys can freeze apps right?
freeze
HtcOMADM_SettingsPlugin_VZW.apk
and
HtcOMADM_VZW.apk
that should stop it right?
Sorry I just jumped in to give insight. I will be honest I didn't search or read so if this has been said my apologies everyone. Just trying to help.
Just click back
I got this this morning as well. I never selected a time. I just click back. This will make the box go away.
I'm sure this will get annoying so hopefully someone finds root or s-off soon.
