Freeze the app SDM 1.0
By the way an easy search would have told you that.

Also, usually a build.prop edit can be a simple way to stop OTA updates on many devices. You would want to compare the build.prop of an updated stock device and change the appropriate line.

Or just disable sdm. If he didn't know how to do this prior, there is NO way he should be touching build.prop yet....

Thanks for this. I first spent hours trying to get the right stock ROM because VZW was forcing and OTA on me and I did not want to brick my Note 2 when it got pushed. This is a much simpler fix and I don't have to worry about losing root.

Running CM9 ICS and would like to disable the confirmation prompt when I delete a text message.
Does anyone know of a way to accomplish this without a third party SMS app?

I was asking in a general fashion. If it needs to be moved then that is what should be done.

Ok so I have a nandroid of the stock rom and my problem is that I think / system is to big so it won't flash. So could I flash someone else's? Also is it possible to trim the size of a nandroid

what he means Ian is that this section is JUST for the posting of roms/development and there's a section specifically for questions (and hopefully the answers you need)
So youre gonna flame him yet not answer his question....lol nice
yes you can buddie but don't trim it, but please there is a section in this forum for this questions
*nods* Hm, 330 posts....on purpose perhaps??? Knowing that he'd get immediate answers despite posting in the wrong place??? The questions continue.

I've never tried, but I heard that backups from different recoveries are incompatible. Make sure the foreign backup was made by a compatible recovery. And yes, this is surely in the wrong place. It should be reported and moved.
Its a dev question because it might involve Modding the file to run, I was thinking that it might work specially if the only thing stooping it was something that identified the device.
I'm sorry actually just got all the notifications on my phone.... I must of not seen them earlier.
I have been trying to figure this out and the only people who have the answer or the knowledge to mod a file would the the devs... therefore I should get the peoples advice who know what there doing. And it seems that there is no answer to this...regardless of where it is asked.
Sorry for...well not being to clear and I guess messing up on the position of the thread. I just though it had more in common with the dev section.

I could certainty appreciate your standpoint if say, I bricked my device trying to root it.
Considering the power button broke (and my phone has NEVER been dropped) I dont think it's fair that they refuse to fix a hardware problem because I used my device as it was built to be used.

So, like many of you I have the me 7 out update and have performed the SD card root method. Now what? I want to use Titanium Backup to start uninstalling the bloatware but I'm not sure which apps I can safely remove without causing issues.
Beyond this, what else can I do with my rooted/ME7 SGS4? What are the best apps for root only?

Personally, I would just freeze. It looks like we're in the long haul for recovery/bootloader. There's a chance that the next hack might not be available until the next update.
Honestly there probably will not be any bootloader unlock for the Verizon S4. Its just been blocked down so tight that its very highly unlikely you're going to get more than root. Maybe recovery but that is a long shot.
And its not about the time involved to find a line of code or some loophole. Its how they have learned from the past. The last few phones only got unlocked because of leaks. Without the leaks they would still be locked to this day. That alone says a lot.

Do a search. It has its own thread all about it. Its in the Dev section.
Since your new I'll link it. But please just do a quick look around first. You'll learn more that way.

This is not a demand or request, I just wanted to throw this question out there. Now that 4.3 TW is ported even though without radios, can the sunglare lockscreen/animated weather widget be ported to 4.1? Maybe someone with the knowledge/power/time might want to make it happen, but I just want to know if its possible. Thanks in advance.
Usually you make a simple title and ask the question in the thread where someone can see all the text. Unlike this thread. Please try again.

Much better title. And to answer the question now that I can see it, odds are no. Most features of the new version of android can't be added to older versions. I could be wrong an someone might be able to hack them apart but in my experience, it won't work. But the thread is asking correctly now so maybe someone more knowledgeable then me will chime in. Thanks for fixing it bro. :beer:
Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2
It could be done to some extent, but depending on what feature you're looking for, the difficulty of doing so may be pretty high. IMO, it would be easier to just wait for a 4.3 release/leak for our device to get the features.
Right on, thanks guys. :thumbup:
