[Q] Removing the OTA Notification from Rooted Device - Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have an unlocked bootloader on a Verizon Droid Ultra with TWRP and stock 4.4.4. All is working well but I recently received a notification (on the left of the notification bar) indicating that an update has been downloaded and ready to install. I do not want to install Android 5 at this time for a number of reasons and would like to get rid of the notification and erase the download (if I could find it). Does anyone have any suggestions other than ignoring the request to install the update?

I cannot find Motorola update service 4.0. I did find the following that sound close:
Motorola Services 6
Motorola Services Main 1.0
MotorolaOTA 1.0
Is it one of these?

Security Update

I just purchased the sprint version of the s5. I rooted and just installed a custom recovery. I keep getting a notification to update from Samsung. It's a security update but it goes through the Google play store. Since I'm rooted and have a custom recovery I'm not supposed to take this update, right? Also, how do I get this notification to disappear? Thanks

Ascend Mate 7 and Moto360

Hi there,
I'm new to this forum and have a problem getting my phone notifications to my watch.
I have updated my phone from Android 4.4.2 to 5.1 (I thinks it was a beta, because i signed up for it) and resetted my phone and watch
I can connect my watch to the Android Wear app trough Bluetooth and calls come through but no notifications (like Whatsapp, email, Google Now etc.)
When I open Android Wear I see the message: Android Wear needs access to your notifications, so your phone can send updates to your watch.
I tap on turn on watch notifications and I I'm send to the setting access to notifications. I tap on Android Wear but nothing happens, it stays greyed out.
What can I do to turn on the notifications?
What I already did:
Under privacy & security
Notification manager: Android Wear: Notifications Allowed and priority
Protected apps: Android Wear is protected so the app stays active when the screen is turned off
Under Security:
Advanced: Apps with use access: Google Play-services and ProjectMenuAct
Resetted both devices multiple times
I don't know what else I can do, so I can use my watch again, so any help is greatly appreciated.

If you installed Lolipop 5.1 (B308) you can not activate the notification access for Android Wear on your Mate 7. Therefore no notifications are shown on your watch. You need to install the Beta B312 (link somewhere in the threat about Lolipop with Screenshots). In that version you can activate the notification access.
To install the B312 you first need to roll back to Kitkat using the rollback package (link also in the threat mentioned above). I tried the betas but decided to stay on Kitkat until the official Lolipop is published.

One thing i noted is that phone is much more snappy afterward. maybe it's because of the cache rebuild that every build do or maybe there is some secret ingredient added in this update.
Very surprised to see another update from AT&T for the G2. I wonder if there's any chance of seeing 5.1.1 or 6.0.
Does this mess with root?

You can't update with root, at least I haven't been able to.
When updating it will just kick you back to the home screen with a message telling you, you're suspected of rooting and updates are not supported for rooted devices.
I also tried the method discribed in http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-g2/general/links-manually-forcing-ota-20c-to-20u-t2828874 to force an update but I was unable to succeed
I'm waiting for dlpkgfile to update
How does one make this file root friendly? Wouldn't mind taking the time to do this.

i think thats the answer for no 5.1.1 i dont see why leave g2 at lollipop if its has bugs.. since they fix the stagefright on 5.1.1. so we need it 5.1.1 to get rid of this bug but aparently with this update theres no need to update to 5.1.1 but does this still have the memory leak bug?

here is a link to the dlpkgfile from my LG G2, but if you have root you cannot update through either the normal OTA method or by using the root adb command method described in

The last command appears to force a package on the phone to start the update process without (or possibly after) a check for root, however when I run the command the nothing appears to happen making me think that the original Lollipop update(30f) either nerfed the command to prevent this kind of thing from happening, or they replaced the package with a new one for the 5.x iterations of Android. so it is a matter of waiting for people smarter than me to find out how to force the updates in the Lollipop update
TL;DR: yup I agree with you
Is there no way to unroot, install this update and then root again?
Negative

As far as I know you can't unroot a device. The way I'm doing it is reinstalling the original KK, then going trough the process of updating till the lastest update then rooting again.
I do hope someone could come up with way to install the latest update on rooted.
That did come to my mind but I felt it's just too much of a pain going that far back for a patch!

XT926 possible exploit for locked bootloader?

Ok so maybe im crazy but maybe im not
I have a Droid Razr MAXX HD (XT926) with kernel 3.4.42-gbd361ac running android 4.4.2
I use this phone without standard service (verizon) and instead with google voice and hangouts on wifi.
I have attempted to root, and unlock the bootloader with no success...
I have tried EVERY exploit in the book..... ive heard from various sources that it is impossible to root or unlock the bootloader on this phone because of an OTA update that i failed to block :V
Today i had a weird idea, in the play store, the Motorola Update Services app reads "update" but when clicked shows that the phone is not compatible with said new version.
I had a look at the permissions the already installed Motorola Update Services app had and they are pretty juicy....
I am wondering if, one of you android whiz's could help me code a fake update for the motorola update services app so i can utilize those permissions and root/unlock the bootloader at will.... that is assumming that the app already has the usable permissions (which im sure of cause its an ota updater)
Can anyone help me?
I use linux quite a bit already but ive never coded an android application....
Note: i cant find anywhere online with a valid download of this application :V maybe someone with a motorola phone could email it directly?
It sounds not as crazy you think!
But maybe there is a way to tell the update app, that you have an older version installed! Did you only got the latest version or can you update a version between the fake version number and the latest?
Maybe it is a way to think about for some developers/hackers... but to find someone he is interested in this device is the next problem! And this is the biggest i think!
And when you really sideload an update, is there an update checking in the running firmware? Maybe there is the real problem!

your link seems dead or not correct. - edit: link correct, was not working due to my vpn...
I assume he patched a G8+ boot.img with magisk manager.
boot image can be extracted from official Doha firmware found here: https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/doha/official/
manual on how to do this can be found on official magisk manager website.
be aware that when unlocking bootloader your phone will reset to factory settings.
This is what I did. Yes..
Worked great for my G8+. I guess people should just check which stock ROM file they get from lolinet to make sure it's the right one. I say that because, in my case, lolinet list had two files for the Brazilian stock ROM. I went to Settings / About / Version number and downloaded the matching file. Don't know whether the other file would work the same or not. Just didn't want to risk having any issue since G8+ is somewhat new and there's not much info on solving root problems on the Internet.
Hi,
Couple of questions
Does the Bootloader have to be Unlocked to flash the modified Boot image?
Or can I use update option?
Are Motorola releasing unlock numbers for Bootloader now?
Thanks, Carl

Hello, Carl. I guess it's not possible unless there's a flaw in the security. There are some articles on the Internet about that. Google "is-there-a-way-to-root-an-android-phone-without-unlocking-the-bootloader". I can't post URLs yet.
As for Motorola devices, I was able to unlock the bootloader without problems on my G8+, last week. The only caveat, I'm my case, is that I had to wait some days for the unlock bootloader option be available under developer options. It was disabled by default in my G8+. And, yes, they're releasing bootloader unlocking codes.
THANKS!
Have anybody with a rooted device tried to get wide angle camera working in gcam ports?
Thanks.

magisk module debloater and also sdmaid helped with most of the bloatware, the only thing I could not remove was google files but I just deactivated it.
a really weird thing happened with the April 1st update, basically the update started automatically and it failed at 3/6 so I tought I should restart my phone and test it again, but it got stuck in bootloop and I had to reflash a rom with fastboot cmd.
I think that's because I unlocked the bootloader and rooted my phone, cause u lose the right for updates after you do that, but for some reason lenovo/moto update system goes automatically the next second u connect to the internet and fails halfway thru so u have a higher chance to ruin your phone or something, instead of denying the update from the start
so the solution I found was to try and delete "moto update service" app that I can't force stop or disable but I couldnt find it in system/app or system/priv-app, that's because the app name is "3c_ota", so deleting that with SD Maid app worked and the "update system" option in settings is reverted to a sort of default android one that lets you check manually.
Had a similiar issue. I soft bricked my phone (bootloop) and installed a stock rom from an unofficial source. The funny thing is, this version did make like 3 or 4 system upgrades to PPSI.29.65-51 without any issue. But the 1st April updated failed to install. I then flashed the official 1st april stock image with the moto rescue and smart assistant. After that, the official ROM tells me my phone is not allowed to do updates because the security of this phone is compromised and I should contact lenovo support
Those upates are kinda annoying if they don't work, I guess I'll just completey flash the phone every 6-12 months with the moto assistant.
yeah you should always have a backup rom that you can download with moto assistant or from lolinet g8 roms (https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/doha/official/)
I also got the same message saying that my phone is compromised ( unlocked bootloader + rooted) and it won't receive any further updates, but I just deleted the "3c_ota" app (the moto update service) which is bad cause if forces automatic updates the second u connect to internet.
I'm not going to touch any further updates or security patches until android 10, which I will attempt to flash via moto assistant
