[Q] Keep getting "Install Update" message for FL24

Hi I have a rooted Epic 4G Touch and running on the stock ROM. Ever couple of minutes I keep getting a message to update to FL24. I tried using Titanium Backup Pro to freeze System Update but it still occurs. I even tried backing it up and just uninstalling it completely and it still pops up with message. Any solution to this? I've tried fotakill too. Would installing a custom ROM remedy this issue?

yes a custom ROM with custom recovery would elimate this

A custom ROM if not on fl24 would still prompt. Go to the stickied thread in q&a forums and in post 3 it is explained how to stop ota update. The link to the thread is in my SIG too.

When I flashed a Rom it didn't tell me about the update. I guess it depends on what type or kind of Rom you flash

Hmm maybe I should just get a custom ROM. It's still happening with FOTAKill :\. Which ROM do you have? Any issues with it? Also is there still that problem where if you wipe your data your phone will brick.

There are answers to the question you're asking. They've been asked plenty of times before.
If you grab a one-click full wipe/restore 'leak', say GB08 you will NOT be prompted.
PLEASE take some time to read, search and then read some more. Or, yes, you will brick your phone.

So just to be absolutely sure if I flash this: http://rwilco12.com/downloads.php?d...-D710)/Stock ROMs/JB/GB08/Full Restore/Rooted
On AGAT v0.2.2 recovery FI27 it should be okay right? And I just go into download mode and click start. Sorry I do look at the threads but I get confused at times and am kind of paranoid since bricking my last phone.

When you are flashing a full rom, it doesn't matter what recovery you are on. You flash a .tar.md5 using odin/mobile odin.

What do you mean you can't flash anything else? When you flash, are you wiping everything clean each time before flashing ROMs or are you dirty flashing?

yes, i'm wiping everything, whenever i try to install any other rom i have some type of error. i'm new to this so please excuse my noobness. i've tried to flash a stable cm10, among others with no luck.

Do you have the md4 boot loader?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

The new S3 have been modded by Sprint /Samsung and require a modded recovery in order to mount storage. The other issue is that you can not flash an aosp style rom. You should be able to flash any TW rom but it won't allow aosp roms to flash. None of the developers have a new S3 so until someone gets one ir someone volunteers one this won't be solved.

If your getting a status 7 error that is the bootloader error flash this in recovery it will update all your firmware and bootloader. http://db.tt/Qt6NcH0a
After flashing this make sure you reboot the phone then try going back into recovery and flashing the rom you want.

Is this still a legit fix even after the 4.3 upgrade?
I just tried this and now my phone wont even power on.

Having issued installing ROM and wiping data

Ok, so I rooted my note 2 and installed the devil2 kernel, and dualboted it, in which in the primary ROM I had Stock TouchWiz 4.3 T-Mobile rooted ROM with xposed module installed, and I had accidentally hidden the SuperSU app in hide it pro and then it force closed and I rebooted the system which caused me to get stuck on boot, so I tried wiping data and reinstalling the same ROM but I got an
"error: I/O
error opening /data"
I get that on every recovery I use and every time I try to flash something or wipe data, I'm currently using omnirom 4.4.1 on the secondary ROM partition, but so far the primary ROM partition is unusable and I can't do anything, I was thinking re connecting to Odin and flashing the root .tar I used but idk, also read that a lot of people solved this by wiping internal and external storage, something I REALLY want to avoid...
Any suggestions? Please help, I really want to get the primary ROM partition working again, and my stock T-Mobile 4.3 update running, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance

You flashed the wrong kernel for 4.3 touchwiz. Last I checked the dual boot kernel wasn't compatible

No, cause it was working fine for 2 days straight, besides, touchwiz or not, it wont let me wipe data to install a new rom, it says succeeded but i always end up stuck at boot. If you want i can send you a log file of the twrp trying to wipe data, install rom and fixing permissions

[Q] Updated Wicked Sensations ROM from MD4 V5.0 to MK3 now stuck in a bootloop

Ok so this is my first post but have been lurking around these parts for years, and am no stranger to Rooting phones or flashing ROMs and Kernels. Can't post directly to the Wicked Sensations thread so I'm hoping to get some advice 'cause I'm stumped...
I've been running Wicked Sensations ROM MD4 V5.0 for months and decided to Check out the new TW4.3 MK3 Version.
Followed directions... backed up onto my external SD..... did a full wipe (System, Data, Dalvik, Cache)....and flashed WickedSensations_MK3_BETA_v.01.zip.
Everything appeared smooth.... rebooted system....and then,,,,,,
Phone boot loops between the Samsung splash and Galaxy Siii screens.
I'm able to get into recovery...TWRP 2.6.3.0... tried to restore my backup however the same bootloop scenario plays out.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I'd Odin, there is a pre rooted option.
then restore wicked.
might try to download 4.3 again if you want to try it.
you used a 4.3 rom that still used the md4 firmware, right? (nm: I see the zip name)

Correct. No 4.3 firmware... KNOX free.

The way I did mine today I saved everything I could to my computer. .. then not only did I do a factory reset and wipe the caches I also formatted the internal memory because of all the issues I've heard of and also experienced. Other than that I didn't do anything special. ..Please let us know if you get it back up.

Got WIcked MD4 back up with all my data intact... only wifi wasn't working at all with the ROM. Thought maybe it was an issue with the stock kernel or modem via Odin... so i flashed Ktoonsez and Mk3 like I was running up until this morning... wiped cache and dalvik... Got hung up on my custom boot img for 10 min and couldn't get her to boot up. Trying a restore again now. Hopefully 3rd times a charm.

I was able to get Wicked MD4 back up but can't seem to get Wif to work. Any ideas on how I might remedy?

you might try to forgot the network (press and hold on the name, then select forget) and then connect to it again.

Did you check your md5 on your download to make sure you didn't get a bad download of mk3 Rom?

Yeah turns out it was a bad download of the WS MK3 Rom from the other morning that set problems off. After a few tedious hours flashing kernels and modems and some trial and error I was able to stabilize and back up a full working nandroid of the MD4 setup.
Flashed Wicked SensTW4.3 MK3 with Decimalmans TW kernel yesterday and I'm really feeling it... super stable for a 1st Beta release. Barring a cpl random app fc's and the fact I can't seem to figure out how to install a wallpaper onto the lockscreen.. it's badass. MAD props to Dazed and Team Wicked on the ROM.. it far exceeds my expectations and am fired up to see where it progresses from here. Thanks for your hard work and efforts to impress us....
Happy Xmas all...

[Q] International rom compatability N900T

I currently run X-Note V13 with Civ Kernel. My opinion is that it is the best ROM out there and it is an international ROM. Only thing is that your CSC gets changed which is no big deal other than the fact that some settings and apps think your are from another country.

I fully agree I love that rom! Keep going back GREAT battery life! Fast and stable with A LOT of tweaks. You have to try it, you won't go back. It deletes your internal storage. At least if does on mine but I don't care

You can probably use any international rom as long as you use the wifi bt nfc fix and a tmo kernel.

how did you flash the x-note v13 ROM without the aroma install wiping your internal SD? I've been flashing a tmo kernel and the wifi fix, but the actual ROM install itself ALWAYS wipes my internal SD. And it doesn't boot. Could you please list out your steps?

This ROM always wipes my internal SD card as well, that or it happens when I do the wipe prior to install.
This is the way I have flashed two versions of X-Note once on jb and once on kk. Both worked flawlessly.
1. use twrp 2.7 as recovery (cwm works too, but I am personally like twrp better.)
2. Down load all the files found here to your computer.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=50728165
3. Take your external move the downloaded files to your EXTERNAL SD card.
4. Flash using the instructions listed in link above.
Notes: when you do you full wipe twrp should not remove the files from the external sd card and then you can flash. If it does wipe, remove the card from your phone, plug into computer, move files, place back into phone and then reboot back into recovery. I did find it helpful to make a special folder on the external sd card for the files to be in so I could locate them quickly.
Also on the first boot you have to give the ROM about 5-10 minutes to set up.
Make sure to unchecked the reboot option at the end of the aroma so you can flash the custom kernel and wifi fix.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Actually turns out I spoke too soon last night.
I got to the crazy boot animation for xnote 13 but it never finishes booting. I've let it sit for 30 mins without the animation stopping.
For the record I'm also using twrp 2.7.0...and on the official 4.4.2 nb4 boot loader. Is that the one you're on? Or are you still on the 4.3 mi7 boot loader ?

That is what I was on. You can't do 13 unless you have the new boot loader. Did you do a md5 check of your zip and did you do a clean wipe prior to flashing? You can also try to do another clean wipe and reflash all the files. Sometimes you have to flash the kernel twice for it to function correctly. Not sure why but I have seen that mentioned several times in the dev section.

Hi Guys, Newbie here
I just got a note 3 from tmobile (N900T). I'm using it in a different carrier here in the US. I wanted to remove the tmobile apps and I stumbled upon this post. So I tried installing xnote v16 with the WIFI/NFC Fix and Civz Kernel 3.4. Everything seems to work well except the WIFI. I can't turn it on. Anyone can help me get my wifi working?
