This should remove it.
Flash in custom recovery. This mod is for deodexed roms only.
@boss336, if this resolves your problem, please edit your post to say (SOLVED) in the title so that others may see this and profit.
Tnx - TD

Ahh, well the mod I posted won't work for you then I'm sure you already know.
The system update thing seems to be normal. It is rather annoying but only happens on a reboot.

Can I update another way besides OTA?

Whenever I try to update I get a pop up that says "service unavailable"
Is there a way to update by putting the update file on my phone?
Thanks

Is this possible? Help!
Can't I download the zip of the update somewhere? I'm not to worried about small updates, I'm more concerened about whenever the jellybean update comes out.

All you have to do is flash a Rom with whatever update or features that you want.

I'm stock and didn't plan on rooting. I used to do all that with the original HTC EVO and it took up way too much of my time... so I was just wondering if there's a place where all the updates are in a zip format so I can apply any updates manually

Yes. People pull the downloaded ota and your can flash it in stock recovery. I have the lg7 update straight from Verizon if you want it. I think it only works on lf2. If your on lg1 I think you need a different one.
Edit: I'm going into work so I'm gonna post it for you just in case your welcome. This is not modified in any way whatsoever.

If you're stock and not rooted, you should be getting updates over the air from Verizon, you don't need to apply them manually.

I am not trying to be rude but did you read my original post? When I try to update OTA I get a popup saying "Service Unavailable" It's like my phone isn't connecting to Verizon's servers to get the OTA. So I need to apply them manually, unfortunately...if possible

Sorry, I missed that. As long as you aren't rooted and haven't otherwise messed with the phone at all, I'd go ahead and call Verizon and see what they can do. You should be getting updates OTA and if you are not through no fault of your own, it's their responsibility to fix it, especially with the huge security hole that was found in these phones recently.
I had a VW S3 that wasn't receiving the update for OTA and when I talked to the rep he said to use Kies. Kies does say that it will update your phone but I had a problem connecting it. The only way the app will update is if you have your phone connected through USB. I tried and tried and tried but I couldn't get the computer to see my phone in the Kies program to sync it. It would connect through WiFi real quick.

I downloaded kies but apparently my device does not support updating via kies
Give Samsung a call because on the website it does away that Kies will update your software over USB.

4.4.2 Failed

I tried to load the update via TWRP. I get installation failed. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? I am installing it the same way I installed 4.4.1
You changed something. Dpi, build.prop?? Fastboot flash system and boot images
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
I didn't change anything. Just rooted. Everything else is stock
well first you must tell us exactly what you have done so far.
otherwise nobody can help you.
Mine failed too. I got an update today and as I'm updating, I got an "error" midway through. Now when I go under settings, it'll say "your system is up to date", yet I'm still running 4.4.
Now what? Did I lose my chance to update? lol
Edit: Does being rooted have anything to do with it?
Rooted is ok, but what did you do with root? If you changed anything, or froze system apps it won't work

T-Mobile kitkat OTA

Hey guys,
I thought I'd make a new separate thread for the OTA update instead of the LG Tool method. OTA just started going out to phones. I was wondering:
Anyone get the OTA yet? And if you did use the OTA, did you root before and keep your root?
Thanks everyone!
As far as ive read you wont revive a OTA if your rooted, You would have too un-root/flash stock, Update then re-root.

I did the OTA and lost root. I'm not sure if it would make any difference, but I did not check the setting in SuperSU to maintain root after OTA. I'm not sure if this would work anyway.

Sometimes it takes a few days
Still no OTA. What gives?
I got my notification just last night. So it should slowly get to everyone.
Note 1: It would not install until I charged my phone.
Note 2: I still got the notification for my T-Mobile D801 even though I'm unlocked and on H2O.

This phone was an insurance replacement phone, came with 4.3 loaded (sigh...) I have my suspicions that Assurion replaces insurance-claim phones with faulty pieces of shat...just a theory though...
I have already tried to re-flash the rom with no luck. Ill try to uninstall and reinstall maps app. Not very optimistic though, lol
Lol.. Ppl had problems with Google play. Uninstall and reinstall was a quick fix. Unless u need an older version of maps

i had the same issue, i fixed it by replacing "gps.*** " ummm, i dont exactly remember the name of file or the exact path, but you should be able to find it in system partition.
somewhere on these forums there is a list of different gps files for almost every country, find and download the one for your country or neighbor country.
just google for "replace gps file for fixing gps on android"
and find it
goodluck

No, it's not my kernel making things "crazy." What you're experiencing has to do with "ItsOn" and since I use original N920P source, and ramdisk, it mounts the carrier partition and the system loads itson from there.You can remedy this simply by using a root explorer to navigate to /carrier and remove itson related things.
Please don't blame my kernel and spread rumors if you don't understand what's happening.
