I recently took the OTA update but rooted using safe-root and have Titanium installed. Everytime i plug my device into my laptop there is an automatic connect to the Verizon Wireless spam page. What file/app/program can I freeze/unistall in Titanium to stop this? Thanks again. Mods please delete.
I haven't seen that before, but you may want to go to the Verizon forum, you're in the Sprint forum at the moment. You may find your answer there.

I was going to say searching before asking is always helpful lolol
Hello all,
I got my Galaxy SIII working nicely so far with the firmware 4.1.1, rooted and tethering ok. I really don't have the motivation to update. And one of my co-worker has the pretty much same situation with me, but his phone is bricked while update, which scare me even more. (Good that AT&T send him another one because the issue was cause my AT&T's update) So, now my phone is buzzing me to update, and I can only postpone it so far. Is there anyway that I can simply turn-off the AT&T Software Update prompt?
Thanks.
You can use the paid version of Titanium Backup to freeze the update. Aside from that, the update bricking the phone sounds to be a random event. Either it was a bad download or he already had faulty hardware. If you are under warranty and go about the update correctly, you could warranty the phone if you had the unfortunate brick occur (which is highly unlikely).

Freeze "AT&T Software Update" and clear the data.

Or if you don't have it, flash any non-stock recovery. The update will boot into recovery, but will fail if you have a custom recovery.

Hey
I have a new ota update and i cant complete it as my phone is rooted.i have unrooted it but my phone still says its rooted.
Is there any way to remove root without hooking upto computer and losing everything.
Thanks
I like to know that to. (hoppfully no need to reflash the hole rom)
Use PC Suite for upgrading the phone!
If PC Suite doesn't detect the new update, choose the repair firmware (or something called like this) and it will unroot your phone, then update via ota.
You won't lose any data with this method.
Guys. Use Search!

Idd, like 20 millions threads about this.
If you guys got a problem with people asking this type of questions please hit "repport post" and let a more experienced person make that decision.
If there is a "million threads about this" why not be more helpful and give a link to some of this threads?

Thanks worked a treat
can someone point me to a 157 stock rooted rom? i can't seem to find it anywhere on this forum. Unless it doesn't exist for some reason?thanks in advance
you are kidding me???
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/development/rom-d550314-4-0-157latest-t2957307
1) check your sarcasm, i'm not your son
2) that's not stock
3) if this is all that's available, i will use it, thank you for pointing me to it.
There is some threads about it that's first. Second you should even type in google or on xda here couple words before starts new thread. Third you should flash 108 kernel than use newroot and after that flash again 157 kernel. And that's all procedure
Happy flashing

I think I remember reading if you do an OTA with an unlocked bootloader you could brick it.

People are baffled how others, especially People with around 500 posts can start such threads when the methods to root can be found in the General section, which have been there for weeks, and if you've not found a stock rooted ROM or as close as in the first few pages of both development threads that suits your needs then you're out of luck. Simply flash a stock ftf and root it if you want a clean as possible ROM, then mod it to your own needs.

Thats most People say who start such threads when what they're asking for is usually on the first or second page of the General section. http://forum.xda-developers.com/son...rmeare-d5503customized-de1279-697814-t2931326
how you feel about it is irrelevant, if i'm telling you my search didn't work, it didn't work. Why would i voluntarily be dicking around here wasting time with you sarcastic people?
I appreciate the link

Again, members with nearly 500 posts should know where to find the most common files, so telling People you've searched, except for using your eyes as pointed out, then expect a little sarcasm.
Rooted it for a buddy using KingRoot, worked totally fine. Verified that it was working and went about our day. I didn't attempt to install recovery or anything like that because I know the bootloader is locked. For some reason, it is now saying that the software is unofficial, and to take it to a Verizon store for some damn reason. 100% sure this is an AT&T tablet, as it says SM-T707A right on the back panel, and it's on his AT&T plan.
I can't find the flashable software on either AT&T or Samsung's site...does anyone know where I can get it, or what I can do to fix this? I can get into download mode no problem. I've owned many Samsung devices in the past and it's never been as issue if you can get into download mode....but I can't find the damned firmware.
May have figured it out - http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/stock-kitkat-image-sm-t707a-revert-t3403934
Gonna odin back to Kit Kat and take the OTA if available back to lollipop.
Still dunno why the hell it says Verizon on the error screen though...
Reporting back in case someone finds this via search. This totally worked. It's back up and running.
Wasn't able to do the OTA, but was able to manually update to Lollipop via the zip files posted in the thread I linked above. Worked a treat.
Try this. You'll have to scroll down but it might help.
