Hello all,
Anybody know how to disable the annoying OTA update notification on the Droid Charge? I've looked at a few guides, and most say to edit the ro.build.fingerpint line in build.prop from FP1 to FP5 [although I inferred this, as the guides I found had them updating from the prev version to FP1]. I've tried this twice and it bricked my phone both times.
I've also tried renaming the otacerts.zip to otacerts.zip.bak [in the system/etc/security directory] but this does not work as well.
I've not been able to find an .apk in the system/apps directory that looks like it's the OTA updater, and obviously don't want to just randomly rename anything in there via trial-and-error as it takes WAY too long to reflash the phone each time I brick it. [I bricked it HARD the first time around. ]
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. The notification pops up constantly and is like Chinese water torture at this point.
Thanks in advance!

What are you using to edit the build.prop? ES File Explorer screws up the file.
1. Download ROM toolbox lite (no pay)
2. Swipe right to performance tab
3. Tap build.prop editor
4. Tap ro.build.fingerprint
5. Change FP1 to FP5
6. Hit save
7. Reboot
If you are running Tweaked 2.2 or Eclipse 2.0. It can be as easy as flashing a zip. Check out my thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831944

See my previous post or do that .zip, although that will put you on stock build.prop which takes away some tweaks from tweaked.

This thread is likely dead, but for the record, this did not work for me. I still got an OTA notification. Out of morbid curiosity, I backed up everything then accepted the OTA which failed. Rebooted back to Tweaked 3.2. Promptly got another update notification. I am going to try to ignore them for two weeks (per an earlier post to this thread) and see if they go away.
don't know why you bricked but I believe FP8 is the latest, not FP5.

Yeah, I knew that and changed it from FP5 to FP8. I would have been pumped for such a simple solution but alas! If in two weeks the OTA prompts have not stopped I will be back looking for more answers. Right now I have a few other rabit-holes to fall into. Thanks!

Thanks! I checked out that post and it spells it out really well. Instead of flashing the .zip I chose method 2 and used Rom Toolbox to modify the build.prop file. Interestingly I am certain this is the what the OP+1 was aiming to have happen with his steps it just didn't work for me. Same app different way to accomplish the same task. Go figure!

Hey there I don't know if you still need this, but here goes. When I posted that in September 2012, the latest firmware was FP5. To disable the notification, you need to change it to FP8, the newest build.

Thank you joeykrim for the following:
RADIO - the radio is updated through a radio.diff.
SYSTEM - no system/app files are changed
it appears this OTA is much more extensive than the previous OTA.
this one appears to apply small patches to every application in /system/app. a few are large in size, but most are very small.
it also appears to patch:
16 files in system/bin
etc/wimax/
etc/firmware/fw_bcm4329.bin and (ap)
31 files in framework
28 files in lib
2 files in lib/modules - bcm4329.ko and sequans_sdio.ko
SYSTEM updated files (might be more, researching now):
wifi module - BCM4329B1_002.002.023.0396.0402.hcd
android.hardware.camera.flash-autofocus.xml
android.hardware.telephony.cdma.xml
ton of framework files
libCamera_donut.so
libCamera_eclair.so
Fixes & Bugs:
From user npace: (I extracted and fastboot flashed the kernel zImage. Here's a rundown of the issues that I tested for fixes
1. Touch input lag -- fixed -- tried with multitouch visualizer 2
2. Improperly grounded touchscreen -- fixed -- tried on multiple surfaces
3. 30 fps cap -- still there
same radio by your title?

This thread will probably be moved / deleted but I was just letting everyone know. Personally I am going to wait to hear from the Dev's on this download before even touching it.
is this breaking root access.. some unrevoked users via face book saying unrevoked is no longer working.. i guess they should have went all out and did the full root

Even if you rooted via toasts method, i would not update until a custom ROM is put out with the update included. You could lose root ability forever.
Anyone know the location of system updates are stored on the phone? I am trying to locate using the adb shell but have had no luck finding the download yet.

I'd recommend not installing it at all until the devs here have had a chance to go through it and release it themselves. You risk loosing your root if you don't. Then follow their release instructions to apply it.
Btw the radio is 2.05.00.06.10 with this update.

No, looks like just about all the preloaded APK's are in there, including the Sprint crap. I assume if you apply it as stock you'll get them back, but I could be wrong.

The official froyo release from HTC / Sprint will definitely contain all the "Sprint Junk" and if you've given up root to one of these updates and go to apply that it will all come back. You may never get root again in order to re - clean it up once you apply froyo.
Be patient. It won't take the devs here long to cook up an update for us. Flipz had the rooted .6 update rom out in 24 hours or so...
.....
Just took a look inside the zip file. All the apk files are there, including the sprint junk...
Just installed....all is well with root...
I tried to update my rooted TF using a repacked 8.4.4.11 update.zip file (the one with all the patch files in it), but it kept failing on checking of the existing APK hashes. Not sure why, but I got around it by doing a clean install of 8.4.4.5, manually applying the 8.4.4.11 patch, then taking all of the changed (between 8.4.4.5 and .11) files and packing them up in a zip file with an updater-script file.
You should be able to apply this to any US version TF (rooted or stock as long as you have CWR) and bring everything up-to-date without losing root or any of your other install modules, system APKs, etc.
Make sure you back up first, as this is something I quickly threw together and has not been properly vetted. If you find a problem, let me know and I'll try to get it fixed and updated ASAP.
You can also download this ZIP and just take out any APKs you are interested in (the google video apk seems to be popular for example).

Unless I misread this is just an update script and not a full ROM. So this would only work for people on 3.1 though right? You shouldn't flash this from 8.2.X.X for example?
Edit: Thanks this is a great idea, and I was just ready to try this when I saw Prime 1.6 out. Keep it up, I wonder if something like this would work when the 3.2 update comes out.

Looks like so; zip should be run on-top of 8.4.4.5.
thank you worked for me
This does not have SU in it (or anyhtign else "custom"), but when applied to a ROM that already has SU/busybox/anyhting else in it, those files will be retained.
This is an "update" in the sense that it only contains files changed between 8.4.4.5 and 8.4.4.11, so you will need to be coming from 8.4.4.5 (or perhaps anyhtign 3.1, not sure). It is nto really an "update" though, as all of the patch files (blahblahblah.apk.p) and the patch script have been replaced with full 8.4.4.11 version of the files and the script has been udpated to simply copy these over into the appropriate folders on yoru TF.
I see this being most useful for people who have modified their 8.4.4.5 install such that in will no longer be patachable using a script that pataches the existing files.
I just used this to update from 8.4.4.5_US and it seems to have worked just fine! I kept my superuser app, and nothing was touched. My apps, widgets, and settings are all in the right places. I've now got 8.4.4.11! Thank you very much rtadams89!
Thank you for this!! I've been racking my brain trying to get to a rooted 8.4.4.11 with a good CWM recovery and this did it!
thanks.

That is the boot animation I use, and I may have accidentally included this in the zip. If you want the real 8.4.4.11 animation, you can download the "update" 8.4.4.11 zip file that has been posted on xda and inside you will find that boot animation.

Since I don't have a WW version myself, I don't have a need to do this and quite frankly because I don't have much free time, I don't want to say I'll do something and then not follow through. Further, I'm not sure I can install the WW versions on my US transformer. That said, I will see if I can whip one together. If you get impatient waiting, you can follow the same process I did and make one yourself:
Backup your current ROM/setup
Wipe your device (leaving CWR in place)
Install the stock 8.4.4.5 WW with the ZIP found on XDA
"Update" to 8.4.4.11 using the update zip found on XDA
Backup this new 8.4.4.11 ROM
Restore to your first backup
Take the backup of the 8.4.4.11 ROM you made last, and use your computer to "unyaffs" it
You will now have 8.4.4.11 versions of all the system files; Look at the updater-script file in the 8.4.4.11 update zip and remove any files you just "unyaffs"ed that aren't mentioned in there
Put all of the remaining files (in their folder structure) into a zip file
Copy the updater-script (and it's folder structure) from my download to your zip file
Verify that your final zip looks like the one I posted
You should then have a ZIP file that will bring all the files on your device up to 8.4.4.11 WW without touching any of your other files (like su).
My BT doesn't turn on either.
I went to this as a stepping stone while recovering from a failed root. Went to an older stock than this update. I notice a few slow downs here and there and BT not working, but that's about it.
What I would really love is an image of 8.4.4.11 stock/rooted. I like having it rooted for things like Titanium, but I still like having the stock image. I can't seem to get back to that now.
Link is down, Dropbox says too much traffic. Rapidshare/MUpload?
For those who dont know, there is a new updated S-voice out that is currently working on most devices. I'm sure it'll be patched soon as well, and the need to change the build.prop will arise again. In the meantime, this one DOES work

I copied that .so file from the .apk into the lib folder and it works now. It appears the only time that the app FC itself is when it tries to launch another app. I'm guessing probably because it is trying to look for the Samsung app.
Example - When I ask "Locate the nearest Mexican restaurant" or "What is the weather like today?"

Well first you need to be rooted.
Then grab a root explorer: es file explorer or another one
Then goto system/apps and find the s note apk, copy it and paste somewhere on internal storage or sd card then upload.
I tried getting it from zedomaxs file without flashing and no go considering I can't open an img file without it wanting to burn a cd
Right BC, that's why I couldn't pull it either. But if someone is still running the original firmware they can grab it for us, upload to dropbox and link us pretty easily.

You mention an IMG file. I'm thinking maybe, if you can post a link to it so I could download from the Internet and save it on my desktop, I could mount it as a virtual disk. Then, I could look for what you guys want.
Does the IMG file use a standard ISO file system?
I don't have any unix/linux stuff. I have winrar (in case the file is compressed).

http://rootgalaxynote.com/galaxy-note-10-1-root/how-to-root-galaxy-note-10-1/
According to the info, the image I used doesn't increase my binary count. Is there any way to test that?

Yes boot into download mode
Also yes the original firmware root method works great if you are on the original firmware.
I was on the original firmware unrooted and ota'd the update fine bust as soon as I tried to root via cwr method when I booted up I lost s pen and touch screen. Along with lots of other people.
But we all found the solution and are happily updated and rooted.
Hmmm, tried putting SNote.apk in the /system/app folder using Root Explorer. Will not allow me to enter r/w. Then tried pushing the .apk using adb - got read-only fail message.
Guess we can't.

You know I was able to get it to load but it some things in the app don't respond when touching them. I think we need the framework and other s note files for it to work.. a PITA!! But I am over note I am using the trial version of lecture notes and love it!!

Yes most likely. Well lets hope that they fix it in the next OTA. I like the Snores integration with Calendar and everything else so I hope they get it right.

has anyone figured out how to get the old SNOTE back?
After upgrading to jelly bean, Im facing the same issue... just contacted with customer service yesterday but no luck. They said I'm the only one who complain about this annoying bug.

MODIFIED TO NOW WORK WITH VERIZON.
Confirmed working on Verizon Retail Edition and Dev Edition (no flashing involved, just what is listed here)
Here's a zip you can flash on firmware NCG. Thanks to @BigBot96
NCG auto enabler
OKAY guys I got it working. See screenshots. AND FOLLOW THESE STEPS
Requirements:
Use this services.jar NOT the one from the zip. https://www.dropbox.com/s/3vjq70yfdxrmmj9/services.jar
Root
ES File Explorer (make sure Root Mode is enabled)
v2.1 odex file from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2719582
YMMV, so I recommend copying these two files from your system folder to somewhere safe (external sd or PC) just in case something goes wrong.
GOOD LUCK!
1. Download/unzip the services.odex file from the zip. Download modified services.jar from here (https://www.dropbox.com/s/3vjq70yfdxrmmj9/services.jar )
2. Copy Both files to the /system root folder
3. Fix all permissions to rw-r-r (3 checks in first column, first check in second, rest blank) DOUBLE CHECK THIS (See Attached)
4. Copy services.JAR from the system root folder to the /system/framework folder, overwrite.
5. Copy services.ODEX from the system root folder to the /system/framework folder, overwrite again.
6. Reboot
Mine took a few minutes to boot up, and reodexed everything "Android is updating apps".
?????
Profit.
CLICK THANKS.
btw HUGE thanks to RevelationOmega for doing the hard part!!
Also thanks to joshw0000 and Joderme for testing/helping me come up with this!

Try this, can't hurt

If your phone won't boot, take it to your local Best Buy. The Samsung people have a reflash tool that can fix your phone. Not sure if you guys have a odin image or not just wanted to let you know.
I'm sorry guys. I hoped it would work.
Guess I took one for the team... Thank you for the help!

No problem! Figured it can only be a soft brick easily fixed by flashing stock again. Better to re-set everything up and do a 15 second root than it is going about having to get a whole new phone

Might be a bit late.. but chances are ADB was still active. When I was trying out to remove the hotspot restriction manuaĺly, by uploading a recompiled framework-res.apk, it also got stuck at the verizon logo in the boot process but i was still able to use adb to replace the file with the original and when it finished copying the phone completely booted.
Anyone willing to send me their services.jar file and test for me? I'll see if I can get this working for you guys.
