So delete the updatecenter.apk?
You can freeze it, use link2sd from playstore

I know this have been asked like 1.000 times, and i've searched for answers to my question without any sucsess.
My question is:
What exactly do i lose if i use my computer to update my rooted 2.3.3 to 2.3.4?
Model: R800i
Kernel-version: 2.6.32.9-perf [email protected]#1
Version: 3.0.1.A.0.145
Do I lose any apps or games?
Do I lose root?
Can you root 2.3.4?
Is there any major game/apps that doesn't work with 2.3.4?
Thanks!

Right,
1. Nope - not if you dont erase the user data when updating in flashtool, you wont lose it in SEUS
2. Maybe
3. Yes, with the latest zergrush method any version of android 2.3 can be updated
4. Nope it's all the same now (PSXperia now works in 2.3.4)
I wouldnt be worried about all of that though i would be bothered (and still am) about the quietness of xloud (speaker loudness) when updating from 2.3.3 to 2.3.4 you wont notice because your on stock rom
So i don't have to worry about bricking my phone or anything like that?
Bricking usually occurs when you unlock you're bootloader and try too over the air update or install a custom ROM and mess up halfway through. Using the update service from Sony or flashtool won't do irreparable damage to the phone. If it does I'll help ya

Look for .42 firmware in the dev section
Make sure you get the right one, r800i is for UK/Europe.

Root must work even after update..only if you use OTA update. [update it through wifi,not through SEUS,PC]

It must not.But on the other hand,i cant take any responsibility for the consequences.Its better to make a nandroid back up before trying to update.
And if you have a working wifi internet connection,then it wont ask you to use PC Companion.

just go to the list of your apps and you should find something called update service or system updater, or something like that. then, if you only have the free version of titanium, then i recommend backing up that app, then uninstalling it.
reboot your device and the update sign should be gone from status bar.
and as you have made a back up, if anything goes wrong, or you want to update, you can restore
Yes.. U just have to uninstall the app called "update centre"..
I used Titanium Back up to uninstall it

that worked! thank you very much guys!
Just remove UpdateCenter.apk from /system/app and reboot your phone. You can back it up and restore it in the event you wanna do a new OTA update.

must be a problem with the markers in your phone. you previously installed cm10 and now you reverted to a lower version did you do a fresh install?
wipe cache?factory reset? wipe dalvik cache? you must do a clean install to avoid these kind of things

Flash the firmware using flashtool, or request some Miro user to share the necessary app, push it to system rw,r,r permission using any root explorer
