Hello all, This is my situation...I recently got a message from t-mob saying they have a new update..I don't trust any t-mob updates and as such, I clicked on postpone for 1 day. I then updated the phones firmware using kies. Problem is that after I updated through kies I still get that annoying message stating update postponed. I tried going to about phone in settings to uncheck the marks and all it does is say "congratulations t-mobile has sent you a new software update for your device" nothing else can be accessed when I click on software update. My phone is not rooted and is stock. How do I get rid of this annoyance and how do I stop device management from sending me these ota udates?
53 people have viewed this, isn't there anyone with knowledge on this that can help please?
unfortunately the best advice I can give you is to try a factory data reset or just wait...usually tmobile will push updates for a certain amount of time and then stop, from then on only manual updates so you can try and ride it out
Also I'm not sure if this will work as I have never tried it but you can go into settings and applications and disable device management
Root and install Tb and delete the annoying app like I did. That thing kept reminding me left and right...

Yes it is completely annoying, now after I postpone it sends a new reminder, and I now have TWO icons showing that I have to keep postponing. Can you explain for me what is Tb and perhaps guide me with a link on how to root if it's not too much to ask that is?

I have been getting it the past couple days. I cleared my cache and 8 hrs no message. I am on the latest update from the play store. Stock firmware
Scratch that just started happening again
Happening to me since the update during last week. This morning (about 10am GMT 16th nov) another update was available. Installed it with faith, but to no avail sadly. Still happening, with almost every app. Shockingly this shows how far it roots itself into the system doesn't it?

What update are you getting? As far as I know the SM-900T has not received an OTA yet.
Just started happening to me just now, and Google+ won't open at all anymore. Weird. I've been having trouble with Google Play Services acting funny lately, so I assume it's related to the latest update of that (4.0.33). Only other issue I am having, and it isn't really an issue, is that Google Settings app icon keeps turning grey instead of green. Seems to work fine though.
I just updated to a newer version of Google + via the play store. I am no longer having this issue now.
The version I have currently is 4.2.3.56698342, released on play store this saturday just gone (16th), and this is the latest version on there. It's still giving major grief. I can't so much as delete a gallery photo, open a map, anything, without a ten second hang, followed by the unfortunately stopped message.

Did you try clearing the cache. I was having this a lot too. Since clearing cache and updating I have not had this issue happen at all for the last few days

Yes tried that a few times. I notice on the play store several of the comments are from s3 users as well as s4, yet a friend of mine with an s3 has had no issues at all.
Very odd.
Hello, all!
I was just wondering if anyone else is still waiting on the 5.0.1 update for their Moto 360? I have been anxiously awaiting the update on mine and have yet to receive it. I have been checking like mad manually via the phone, but it just keeps telling me that it is up to date . There are some items in the new update that I am really wanting to take advantage of. I was just wondering if anyone else is in the same boat. Thanks in advance.
Yup same here. I check every few hours via the 360 About screen and still nothing.
I'm still waiting. I have tried everything and have just given up.
Nada.
Same here, no luck
I've received the update on my OPO but my watch is exactly like it was before the update. Is there an additional step I'm leaving out?
There is a post with the update file but as I don't have the cable to connect I can't manually update it.
Is there any way to send this file to my phone to the android wear update cache so it can upload automatically to Moto 360?
I'm in the same boat. No update for anything. Tried the tricks but nothing. Anxiously waiting and keep checking. Frustrating

Still waiting too. It's annoying to have to reset your watch multiple times, uninstall apps, clear caches, and whatever else just to get it. That's not something I'm not willing to do anymore after the last update.

Well...I guess it is somewhat of a relief to know that I am not the only person waiting. I am just not understanding why it is taking so long to get the update pushed out to everyone. I certainly do not want to go the path of making a cable and modifying the watch to get it to work. I guess I will just have to wait, but it is frustrating . Thank you to all that have replied. Here's to hoping we all receive the update, soon!!!
I haven't received the update either. But seeing as so many others have not as well, I won't panic. I'm sure it will be available soon enough.
Seriously guys, don't waste valuable time resetting, clearing data etc. That does not work. It's just pure coincidence. This who claim it worked for them, in all likelihood it was just due for them.
Yeah I'm in the same boat. Sucks because I was usually one of the first to get updates on this
Still waiting here too... btw, is it just me or is that "system update" button in the 360's settings menu just there for show? I mean it doesn't even bother checking for updates when you press it, it just says instantly you're on the latest software. I even disabled all the data connections and checked for updates, it did exactly the same. Someone's having a laugh with that.
No update for me too
But today my android wear app update to 1.0.5 and still no 360 update.
I'm a little confusing because on the 360 says my android wear version is 1.0.1.15...and play services 6.5.90
Don't have it either. I hate staged roll outs ?
Yup.
Same here, no update yet.
Glad to see I'm not alone!
On my watch
Android version is 1.0.1.1526154

Does anyone here use the live weather lockscreen wallpaper? It only started giving me issues just a few days ago (I've used it for months without a hitch). It seems that it simply won't update the location, even though I have location set to high accuracy. The weather widget is updating its location just fine.
Has anyone else experienced this? Any idea what to try to get it working again? I'm wondering if it has to do with the latest LP update to OF1...
Edit: Followup - I gave up trying to avoid a factory reset and just went ahead with it. It's working now as expected. I've no idea what caused the problem, but I suspect I deleted some files I shouldn't have. Hope this helps someone else if they so happen to also use this feature and it stops working.
Update: Yeah, I spoke too soon. It's definitely one of the apps on my phone interfering with it, as it worked for about 24 hours after the FDR. My guess is a recent update to one of Samsung's apps may be disrupting it. The investigation continues (for as long as I have interest in trying to fix this).
Any idea of where else to look? Is there an easy way of finding out when exactly each app was last updated or installed?

I recently have the same issue. ES File Explorer has a way to view installed apps and sort by most recently modified. It's on the lefthand pop out menu under library. Curious to know what you find out and if it's truly a recently updated app causing the issue. Note I can manually make it work by manually resetting the lockscreen wallpaper, but it only updates once, then stuck again.

So I'm not going crazy! Glad to know I'm not the only one. This also works for me, and only once. You can also force close the Live Weather app or reboot the phone and have the same effect.
I'll see what I can find from ES when I get the time and report back. Thanks for the info!

Hard to believe we're the only ones experiencing this. Your post was the only recent hit I got on Google (that's why I joined this forum). Sure tons on how to get the location settings right to work correctly with the lock screen weather wallpaper but that's old news. If it's any help I have the latest Verizon OTA update OF1 on Note 4 as well and keep my apps updated weekly. But I just got this issue maybe Sunday 8/9? Or at least that's when I guess I noticed.
That's true - perhaps many don't really care enough to pursue fixing this issue, too. Hehe
There was a recent update for the VZ note 4 - now the build ends in OG5. Hasn't fixed the issue to no surprise. It was mostly a fix for the Stagefright vulnerability from what I gathered.
I tried disabling the Samsung Push Service app yesterday, no change in lockscreen behavior so that app can be checked off. I'm trying not to go crazy with disabling a bunch of apps all at once, and my free time is also limited. This will be a long and grueling process...

I also was hoping the recent security OTA update would fix this but no joy. Just FYI I stumbled on an app that does nearly the same thing, Weather+ by Lalaworks. It's in the Play store. I installed on my Tab Pro since that didn't have weather lockscreen built in. You might want to check it out in the interim. A bit of hefty ram usage but that's the price for eye candy I guess.
I just tried a factory reset again yesterday with a minimum installation of apps. No luck again. I did go bloatware-disable happy though. I have nearly 40 apps disabled. I did try re-enabling all apps for a bit a couple of weeks ago though, which didn't seem to make a difference anyway. I *might* try a 3rd reset tonight and leave all bloatware (minus DTIgnite and VZ Protection) enabled for a day and see where that takes me.
After that, I'll throw in the towel. I can't really see the apps I have disabled now interfering with the wallpaper, especially when they were disabled for months on end with proper operation. Thanks for an alternative solution, will have to check that out.

The verdict isn't out yet on Weather+ for me. Seems to work okay but no lock screen notifications, at least I can't find that setting in the app. Don't want to have to find another 3rd party app to get Lollipop lock screen notifications back. Ugh! We may have to wait for the L 5.1 or M update I fear.
@imamax, you mentioned you noticed this starting around 8/9. Did you update to the OF1 build around that time?
Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk
Unfortunately no, I did that update 7/19.
Interesting my wallpaper did change on its own tonight. Just once so far. Weird the pic from Flickr says Berkley... I'm in Massachusetts and weather widget location is correct. Updates from Play Store tonight were Facebook, Google Play Games, Angry Birds Friends, Netflix. Something to chew on.
Huh, interesting. Did you happen to reboot your phone recently, prior to that happening? Do you have the wallpaper set to update over WiFi only?
I just did one final factory reset, and installed no additional apps. I disabled "DT Ignite" and "Support and Protection" and It seems like the lock screen wallpaper was changing overnight while I stayed put. We'll see if it updates now that I'm going to work...
Nope no reboot and no WiFi only. Still stuck on same screen this morning though. We'll see what happens today.
Kind of a long shot but...do you use any sort of security lock on your phone? I use the fingerprint scanner on my lock screen. I wonder if security is somehow affecting the live weather app's access to changing the wallpaper... It's a far-fetched thought but so far the screen hasn't updated for me since early this morning.
Nope. No PIN, no finger scan, nothing. Just swipe and unlock.
I've had DT ignite dialed for a while and VZ Protection was update 7/3. No change all day so far.

Oops meant disabled not dialed.
I succumbed to doing another reset, just so I could restore a backup from a couple of weeks ago rather than manually download all the apps I once had again. Interestingly the lockscreen updated itself once within the hour after setting it as the wallpaper after the reset, but hasn't updated since. I'm out of ideas. I also kept DTIgnite running overnight. That's being disabled now...

Alright, a little update. I exchanged some posts with Verizon on their forum, and they *might* look into it. It must be a bug with the latest software updates, or something on Yahoo's end. But a coworker here uses the wallpaper with no problem on his ATT Note 4...
Is there anyone else out there on here using the Wallpaper on the OG5 or OF1 builds??
Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk
I am using the Note 4 on at&t (SM-910A) and am experiencing the same problem. It seems to have begun malfunctioning after the stagefright fix. City images no longer load, and it does not update periodically anymore (only after restarting the phone). Thought about factory reset but haven't done so yet. I tried clearing caches (including android system cache), disabling reenabling; everything aside from factory reset. No dice. Hoping the 5.1 update provides a fix.
After updating to build G891AUCU2APK2 on November 24, I notice that if you check the update server it immediately says no updates available. If you checked before twice in one day for example, it would say you had to wait xxx hours before checking again. Could someone who actually did the update check and see if their phone is doing the same thing. I had to advance the data to get the update, but I reset it to correct date and back to auto after updating.

I believe you have to be on Wifi to check for an update, but could be wrong on that.
It is on WiFi. What is happening now after the update is when you go to check for updates, it immediately says system is up to date. It is an instantaneous response, i. e., no spinning while it supposedly checks the server for an update. I am wondering how I'll ever get future updates if it really isn't checking the server. There would have to be a lag while it checks the server plus it does not say check again in xxx hours no matter how many times you check. So, I got the update, but now I'm screwed I guess for future updates.

I would clear the cache/data of the update app via Application Manger, and then reboot.
If you mean the AT&T software update app, the clear data and cache options are grayed out. I cleared the entire system cache partition, but that did nothing.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk
OK, according to AT&T, this is now normal behavior. No more "check back in 24 hours" messages and if your software is up to date, you'll get an immediate response that software is up to date. When an update is actually available, it will connect to the server at that time for download. Rep said they have changed the whole procedure for updates and they should come faster. There will be a couple of small updates in December prior to Nougat they said.

Your option of advancing the date and or time worked for me I'm downloading update now even-though it originally said I had to wait x amount of hours. Thanks for the advice on that.

I am very new in this data thing and will like to pls ask how to advance my data
Go to settings then go over to the date and time option then turn off auto time zone option then go to the date option that is now available and change it to the next day
