I need help. I have a rooted ATT One x running 1.85 stock rom. I debranded using JSLEnterprises method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1634171 and have lost the ATT software update button in settings. How can I upgrade to the latest update without losing all my data? Any help is appreciated.

do you want to keep root?

Don't really care if I lose root as I really didn't use it for anything other than removing the att files.

here's what I suggest since you debloated. Your bootloader needs to be unlocked and you need to have a custom recovery like twrp installed.
Once you have that taken care of, flash the rooted 2.20 ROM posted by scrosler.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1812459
this way you get all of the features of the OTA except the Radio, but that can be flashed separately.
You also retain root, and keep the ability to flash kernels and radios from recovery in the future.

I'll give that a go. Thanks for the quick replies. Will I lose any data by doing this though?
If your bootloader is locked unlocking will wipe the phone. Get titanium back up to back up your apps and stuff

You can also go to App Drawer>Downloads and delete the download.
Is there an app I can disable/freeze to stop all automatic messages/downloads pertaining to all OTA updates? I'm tired of having to press cancel every 5 min.

I don't know if you answered this already, but I found the solutions over at this thread:
wantabe said:
It's a little late for this probably but for future reference if you are rooted and want to stop receiving OTA updates remove/rename/delete HtcOMADM_ATT.apk and HtcOMADM_ATT.odex from system/apps, wipe cache and dalvik. If you want to remove "AT&T software update" from the "Settings" then remove HtcOMADM_SettingsPlugin_ATT.apk and HtcOMADM_SettingsPlugin_ATT.odex from system/apps, wipe cache and dalvik.

Let me understand first what do you want. You want T-Mobile version of your stock rom on your S4? Tell me more about your current system firmware and the firmware version you want of t-mobile ones? And also tell me the current rom version is it At&t ones?

thanks do I need to use odin to install this firmware, and would this make this phone exactly like a tmobile phone, I really don't know why different company use different model #s since is the same phone, also with strapbootloader you could have more than one rom on your phone, right? i was hoping to install a tmobile rooted rom like insane kikkat as a secondary rom

Yes you need to install this firmware with odin. Companies do that to get money by making specific roms for specific carriers, the carriers get promoted and earn more money. Well i dont know much about strapbootloader but i have used multirom manager on my moto g to boot multiple roms and yes if strap bootloader allows to install custom roms than you can install Stock rom as primary and cm11 as secondary.

Getting mine too
Hey guys, I have a question I hope someone can help me out with. I have the sm-g935v which I flashed to sm-g935u. I'm considering flashing it to sm-g935t since the unlocked firmware will be getting quarterly updates which is unfortunate, and I would like to use samsung cloud, FM radio, and now Nougat. Would I have to factory reset my phone back to the verizon firmware before flashing tmobile's, or can I just flash from my current unlocked firmware straight to tm? Prior to Nougats release, I had downloaded the latest tmobile firmware and tried to flash it with no success so not sure what I did wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
OTA
Won't taking the OTA update certain partitions we don't necessarily want to update? Like the BL, for example? Could this prevent rolling back to 6.0.1 if there are issues? Or does this not matter since we don't have an unlocked BL anyway? Thanksssss

The update is for T-Mobile users using the T firmware. You are on the US Unlocked firmware.
I got this also and updated this morning. Very smooth and loving it! Did OTA update and one thing i noticed after updating i wasn't able to clear my cache like before. When i power down, hold all 3 buttons (power, home and up key) get a screen more like a warning saying installing other firmware's or roms can damage my device. Not the exact wording but similar. Has anyone else tried doing that and got the same warning msg?
