[Q] I posted the ICECREAMSANDWICH video and now my phone is locked

What do I do now?

Please explain, locked?
Turn it off if you can. If it's being wiped yank the battery out.

Use adb to install cwr. Then boot back into recovery and make a nandroid backup. Then share it!

how would I know if it's being wiped?
I'm guessing it would be if Google found out abou it. Or if the phone was stolen.

If you can't do anything they are probably trying to. TRY TO TURN IT OFF!
After you turn it off (by any means necessary including yanking the battery), follow the tutorial for rooting you phone then make a nandroid backup of what you have using CWM then mount your phone via USB and upload the back up.
After making a back up you may be able to safely wipe your cache and data. It could provide you with a working phone and provide the rest of us with a nice treat!

ok, battery is out.
i'm guessing the lock will not interfere with rooting my phone?
even if i was able to root it, is my phone unuseable now because it's flagged or something?

Not necessarily, It probably is but I don't know how google's software works. If I had to guess you could probably get it working again by wiping data and cache.
Be sure to remove your sim card as well.

Google has the ability to force ota to your phone and remote wipe
OP, if your phone works on T-Mobile 3G (not edge) follow this guide up until this point
select Recovery
then it should boot into this screen, if not then repeat the steps to download the image
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
at this point instead of installing a rooted rom go to back up and restore then select Backup.
wait for it to finish then connect your phone to your computer via usb then go back to the main menu and select Mounts and Storage then select mount USB storage.
search for a folder called clockworkmod on your computer and make it into a zip file. If you're awesome then you could upload it to mediafire and post the link.
Next select unmount after copying to your pc then go back to the main menu. Select wipe data/factory reset then select wipe cache partition. The phone is now factory reset and COULD boot.

This topic is relevant to my interests, but not sure if troll... I'll be watching this

Either way, I appreciate the entertainment in my last hour of work...

Someone needs to get on IM with this Guy and walk him through the process of dumping the rom.
He should remove sim card and turn off wifi until its backed up.

[Q] I forgot my S3 was encrypted before flashing VRALEC Bootchain

Nothing is wrong at this point.
I am following this method to root and unlock my device. (will not be installing any ROMs)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2046439
My question:
I flashed the VRALEC boot chain file. (step 1 in the guide) -- the S3 then rebooted, and I had to decrypt my device.
I was worried that my encryption would have caused a problem.. I am currently decrypting the device just in case.
Do I have to re-flash the VRALEC or simply continue with my now-decrypted device? Is everything a-ok to continue?
Once again.. I forgot I had encryption enabled - I am currently decrypting it before I continue with the guide.
Thanks alot guys..

Solved.. and rooted, with unlocked boot loader. Thanks alot.
EDIT: I'm a noob at this stuff, but can someone give me some advice on how to block Verizon OTA updates?
Before I rooted, VZN wanted to give me a update. Not sure what it was. I post poned it for a few days.. but don't want it to brick my phone when it awakens.
Any suggestions that don't involve a custom ROM ? Thanks again!!

If you download Titanium Backup from the Play Store, look for sdm 1.0 and freeze it or uninstall it. Sdm 1.0 will be in red since its a System service.

Thank you SlimSnoop. I have done this.. while I was searching around, I saw some people also froze "fwupgrade". But I cannot find this.
Do you know if Verizon removed it via a previous OTA?
Thanks again.. I hope this keeps me safe from unexpected updates. (my other OTA was forced by VZN !!)

As far as disabling updates go I would recommend titanium backup, and freezing the update service. "FWUpgrade" as well as "SDM" are the names. You can also uninstall it, but freezing it in Titanium is my recommendation.... This will prevent your phone from pinging OTA updates in the future even when big red pushes them.

Hmm... this is odd, I cannot find "FWUpgrade" in Titanium Pro version. I will keep looking.
EDIT: I'm on Jelly Bean 4.1.1... didn't do anything. Is it perhaps given a different name? Could it be hidden?
EDIT2: Still no luck... from researching, it apparently exists. But I simply can't find it in Titanium.
Any suggestions? Does it go by a another name in Jelly Bean?

It should be there. For your filters, do you have these set as:
Filter by status: all
Filter by type: System
When you look for FWUpgrade, it should be the last item in the F's. If it's not there, it wouldn't be anywhere else cuz I'm on a custom 4.1.1 TW rom with FWUpgrade not frozen and I see it.

No I haven't... I believe I disabled all share cast via built in "force disable". Are you saying I should enable it, update it, then freeze it via TB?
Thanks alot, this would explain the mystery. :laugh:
EDIT: What I mean to say is that I DO have All Share Cast, and some others with similar name (Dongle S/W, around 29MB)
EDIT: Ok.. then I suppose this means I must disable anything relating to All Share Cast. What about Kies? I read software can be updated from that as well, but prob only manually. Not sure.

I think I blocked off pretty much everything - wow, I should have rooted long ago. Coming from a rooted HTC Dinc, this phone is simply amazing.
I really don't want to lose root at the hand of Verizon though -- I believe I blocked all ShareCast junk and of course the SDM 1.0 service.
Can anyone let me know if this is good to protect from OTA updates? (Used Titanium Freeze method)
Thanks again.

New AT&T OTA Update

I just got a prompt for a new OTA update, but being rooted and running a ROM I couldn't install it. It gave no new information about the update such as size or fixes. Anyone else get this? I'm on an OC3 based ROM by the way.

yea i got it

Were you rooted with the Flashfire method?

Anytime AT&T or Samsung offer a "security" update FOTA, I cringe. I'm on rooted Lollipop and absolutely have to remain rooted to use Total Recall call recorder (you can't imagine how many times it's saved my ass with baseless promises from AT&T and other utility vendors), so I'm always hesitant to upgrade to any FOTA's that may make it more difficult to either flash a better ROM, or other utilities that it might block. Call me paranoid, but I'm going to hold off and try to find a better solution to threats to my OS. Belarc Security Advisor (Free) is highly respected, and a non-conventional system scan that identifies real threats. Running it yesterday and just now; show no threats. I realize that Stagefright is a threat, but I'm running antivirus software that I trust and keep my phone backed up locally on a regular basis.

Well, I also let it run. Figured worst case, it would be rejected due to root. It ran, no errors, still on root (using Flashfire method). Stagefright detector now shows my device is safe.

If you're using the Stock AT&T Lolipop, and Flashfire method for rooting, you will be OK to let the update run. It ran with no issues for me and it kept root.

That's exactly how I did it. My only concern is that it may install patches that could further restrict future modifications.
I also just completed running Lookout and it found no threats or vulnerabilities. I'm staying where I am until I hear more feedback.
Thanks for your advice. I'll be keeping an eye on it.

Please Upload .cfg File For Update My Device .. That OTA File /cache .. Check It And Upload It Please And Check fota Folder

UPDATED POST:
I upgraded with the install stock but "keep root" method, using flashfire...
The update failed at 29%.
I did a factory reset, and it still failed at 29%...
What are my options now?
Update:
I used Flashfire to install the tethering addon... I wonder if that is the culprit.
Installing without thethering... will update with results.
And It's a pain to download that ATT update each time. --- Their servers are SLOW!

Same story here. Update stops and phone reboots about a third of the way through. Defrosted all Samsung/AT&T bloat and tried again. Same story. Bummer.

I rooted my wife's 0C3 with Kingroot and tried to take the update. It failed.
Maybe I should try again since I just used triangle away to get rid of the "custom" nag at boot.

Yes. Rooted with flashfire, on oc3 bootloader. I ran the update through the normal OTA method, not trying to install it through flashfire. It worked fine and root stayed normal. Verified when titanium backup ran last night on its normal schedule.

Well, it updated fine, using just the straight rooted rom, no additional flashes. No more fails at 29%...
It appears that adding in anything extra, de-bloat, hotspot enable, etc. will cause the update to fail.

Reinstalled the rooted stock ROM and the update worked fine. Still have root. All is groovy.

issues after mm upgrade
Here's what I experienced after update...
Once you upgrade you can't flash back to stock. LG flash tool fails because it couldn't detect the model. After setting up McAfee it disables root and usb debugging. You have to go into McAfee and turn those options off. So it seems like once you go to mm you can't get back to lollipop. I'm also having proximity sensor issues also with the screen going black during a call. I guess once we can get root I'll be able to install another rom.

Hi, I got the notification and I was not in WiFi network so decided to cancel it and check it again once I got to wifi zone. But when I checked next time, I just get a message, your phone is uptodate. I tried rolling date forward to circumvent the 24 hour check, but no luck. Any ideas to get the update notification back ?

no luck updating
tried the update today, it just sends me to twrp recovery screen every time

You can't install a factory update while rooted. Come on guys you should know this.

But remember its your own risk, not sure if downgrading will brick or not yet from MM on the AT&T Model.

FWIW, if you're experiencing DND issues after the 6.0 update check settings > dnd > advanced > schedule. kept noticing on my moto360 it was switching to dnd for no reason. turns out some scheduling magically appeared. been running 6.0 without a hitch since last night. had to manually disable at&t video calling and a few other things but im happy with it thus far.

You have to do a hard reset through stock recovery. Don't do it if you are using a custom rom. If you are not experienced I recommend you wait to see if you get another update notification

Use ti backup to disable the fota app and the software updater app. Should keep the notification from popping up. As for the file location it's under /cache and is the dlpkgfile. Should be about 70mb. Delete that and the stuff in the /cache/fota folder. For twrp loops manually rebooting to twrp from power off should fix it

Gotcha. I figured out the disabling in titanium. Had that done. And I wiped cache on twrp before hearing from you. There's no dlpkg in there or anything in the fota folder so that must've taken care of it. Thanks for the help sir.

If someone could get me the files from the cache and fota dirs before they wipe them, it would be appreciated. If the phone can decrypt them, then so can I -- or at least that is what I want to try.
For H910 users that are rooted, this is VERY important. When they finally release Oreo, they WILL increment ARB, and if we don't have a way to decrypt them, then no Oreo for us (and keep root).

What exactly did you do? Still having to tiptoe around or it resets my phone. Even with auto update turned off.

I had 10r no root but TWRP still working. So I went in and reflashed the 10r in the thread about rooting up to 10r. Then I downloaded the 10m firmware and Megarom along with the restock 1.3 kernel.

Alright grabbed the entire fota folder and zipped it up. Hopefully has everything you need.

Also if anyone has a link to the dumped 10t files that would be awesome to share. Looking to create a flashable zip to update myself.

If no one has posted a link to the 10t files, I will reset my H910 when I get my H918 back and dump them.

I use a python script to talk directly to lafd (the daemon that runs in download mode).
It is no different than using the patched LG UP, but I hate Windows

Rooted and flashed LOS to my h910 right as I got the 10t software update notification. Got out of it. Until @runningnak3d gets ahold of 10t then.

How is LOS running?

You don't have to worry about taking updates if you freeze the 2 update apps. FOTA and System Update I believe. I have the 2 frozen and haven't gotten an Ota notification for 10t.

My question is does this upgrade degrade performance? I assume this addresses spectre and meltdown vulnerabilities?

@runningnak3d I attempted to go back to full stock to update and grab us those 10t files. Don't know what happened but the full_stock 10q zip installation failed. Said reverted. tried multiple flashes and redownloads but no dice. Upon reboot I got thrown into the bootloop of corruption. Figured it was something with my custom twrp not flashing correctly so I rerooted, redownloaded and tried to flash it with twrp 3.1.1. Same thing. Zip failed and my phone got into a bootloop with the stock locked bootloader with no fastboot/recovery. Have no idea what is going on. Anyways rerooting for the second time and will not attempt that again. The whole return to stock method and dump for att updates is such a pain in the ass. Are there any reports of that full stock 10q zip failing or am I just doing something stupid?

Did you check the SHA hash?
