Play Store update? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

Are we not getting the 4.1.10 play store update pushed to us? I am aware that I can download it, but curious why it hasn't been pushed yet

I've had it for a while now. Google likes to roll everything out in stages.

Based on your experience is this normal that i don't have it yet?

I don't remember when exactly they started rolling out this update. I think it was earlier this week - I remember reading an article about it and checking and I already had it. I wouldn't worry if you don't have it yet. There wouldn't be any harm in installing the apk though if you want it sooner for some reason.

I thought it was earlier last week... either way I'm not worried about it. Just curious to see how long it will take. Read somewhere that disabling verizon apps stops you from receiving OTAs... if that was true I assume it would be VZW OTAs not google.

Play Store and individual app updates are not VZW controlled. They'll roll out when pushed by Google for your device. Verizon updates are disabled by most ROMs as a lot of times they break root. If you're still stock, I'm not sure you can disable any apps that would block Verizon OTAs.

100% just disabled a couple VZW apps like Navigator and what not. I will just sit tight and see when this update comes

Nothing specific just trying to see how long it will take to receive the 4.1.10 update. Figured by now it would have come.

4.1.10 was a bug fix for the bad battery drain in location services. If you're getting high battery % in your battery stats with google services or android system good chance 4.1.10 will fix that

Just do a search for the new Play Store apk file using Google. Download, open it & select install with package installer. Simple! You'll be up to date.

I am aware of this... I am wanting to get it pushed (for the sake of testing) and am curious why it hasn't come yet. I understand the push out in waves but should it really be taking this long?

Not sure. From what I've heard it takes google around 3 weeks to push it out to all phones. I'm inpatient, if there's an update for my phone I track it down and install it myself. Its been around 2 wks since it was released, so I'd give it 1-2 more wks if you're testing it.

Thanks for the reply. I haven't had an Android phone since the launch of the Motorola Droid X and am just trying to see how much things have changed as far as update times and what not.

Just checked and both my wife and myself have still not received the update yet. Now I'm starting to worry something is wrong

There are several sites to find the update. I found it here: http://www.talkandroid.com/163783-new-google-play-store-4-1-10-update-starting-to-roll-out/
I installed it. No real visual changes.

New ota. Beware.

Some have been saying that it was safe to take the ota... But there is another new one. I am betting it closes the hole. So be careful.

From what they've said, it's not recommended to take future OTAs, so a new one probably won't be safe... but I doubt it closes the hole as I would bet that they don't know what it is yet.
Just because someone discovered it, doesn't necessarily mean that HTC already knows where to find it.
I won't be taking anymore updates, because I don't want to lose the opportunity for root, but I bet this one wouldn't close the hole.
But, thanks for the heads-up about the new one. I haven't noticed it yet. Too busy tearing my phone apart lol.

That's odd because I certainly got a new OTA prompt. And it is the first time that when I decided... The prompt went away.

What was the original one? Because I think this one that prompted me was 1.13.651.7

I don't think that this a new OTA you are getting. There were 2 that were pushed so far, and that is all Sprint lists on their website.
Something even more interesting though, and looked for the Evo3D Support section and it doesn't exist... I know that it was there about a week ago, just seems odd that there isn't any support section and they don't even show a link for the Evo3D to select as a phone in the support section..
Don't jump to conclusions on the phone not being there, but I would guess that it isn't there for a reason.. Hopefully something good!
OP: The one you were prompted for was the 2nd one.
no new ota atm
No new update for me either.
Is there a way to see the change log for HTC updates?

I think the closest you will get is on Sprint's website. Like I said a few posts back HTC doesn't have the EVO 3D listed anymore on there support section. That is where they used to show you what was in it, a little more detailed than Sprint..
Whats going on there... We can only wonder.

Nope, I just installed the OTA (1.13.651.7 from the 24th.)

No new OTA here. Last time the 3vo had an OTA was the day of public release.

Google Music Only Allowing 4 Deactivations Per Year

I read today on Pulse that Google music is only allowing 4 device de-activations per year. What that means for us every were installing a new rom and using Google music, most of the time its seeing our device as a new device because of a new rom. They are only allowing 10 devices and once you get that full you have to deactivate one to add your new rom....I changed my rom 3 times last week alone.
Anybody have an idea about a work around for this?
This was just an FYI for anybody that didn't know.

As fast as it sucks, it gets better.
Google changes mind about device deactivations
Unofficially NOTEd
It's like using a banking app, back up data in tibu and you won't need "re-install" or activate the phone again. If I backup my banking app and restore it, I don't need to verify my device.
What if they tracked the deactivated devices and only allow 4 re-activations per year?
What if...
Let's wait to see what they decide to do. They are trying to figure it all out right now.
For a very limited time, google is allowing you to deactivate all your old devices while they upgrade their system. Good luck guys

That's only if/when you restore apps WITH DATA, which is generally not a good idea when you're switching out roms and kernels.

From what I've seen so far, they are rolling out the software update only in test markets: Salt Lake City, UT and Austin, TX. You may not be able to get the OTA until it is in wide release.
What's interesting is there is a mention today that they pulled the ISIS mention from the update. At least the version remained the same in the two press releases (2.17.605.2 710RD)

Back story:
I was able to get in before they removed unlocking so I'm actually running Hasoon2000's QX senseless rom and have TWRP installed.
I'm sitting here at work and heard my phone make a noise but wasn't paying attention. Then 10 minutes later it's in the process of rebooting itself. It tossed itself into recovery and looking at the log it tried and failed to install the ota update. I'm a little concerned that it just up and tried to install on it's own without asking (or if it did it had a timer). But either way since i'm not running stock it failed.
I'm in Idaho which no one gives a crap about, so i'd say it's global now!

Well like i said i heard it make a noise, but it was the sound i have set for calendar reminders so i ignored it. I'm assuming that was a prompt, and it probably waited 10 minutes for a response before going for default behavior. I think the most worrying part is default behavior in this case is to auto install.
But since I'm running a custom rom it failed so no harm done... to me at least!!!!

I happened to notice mine was downloading. After it downloaded there was a pop-up warning me it was about to update. There was a 3 minute countdown and a dialog to proceed immediately or defer. I selected defer and it let me set the date and time. Set it for next week so I could see how this potential new root exploit works out.

The defer is doing nothing. While Carpenter was giving up the 3 runs to Scutaro my phone went ahead and did the upgrade. Bastards.

Yeah, I see the same thing. It goes from checking to the original options. Have you disabled any system apps?

Mine popped again. I went and killed HTCDM and it hadn't bugged me yet. That might be the process to kill to stop the auto update but I can't say for sure until tomorrow.

Yep killing HTCDM did the trick, my phone is no longer trying to update. I also confirmed from some other posts that HTCDM is the process that checks for updates. So kill it or freeze it if the defer option isn't working (which it doesn't seem to work for anyone) or you're running a custom rom.

I've been with vzw for years but WTF is it with them lately?
First they remove the headphones seen with other versions of the same device.
No blocking mode? Why I really wanted that. I thought this was a jelly bean feature and not a phone feature?

There won't be a flashable zip because you have to change versions to get it working. The best you will get is an executable script that pushes the files and then you have to do stuff yourself and then it will push more files. Viperboy (I believe is his name) has one on Sprint N2 forum.

Ain't nobody got time for that
If one was using the stock ROM but had it rooted, updating would presumably deroot the device, right? Or would the update fail?
I meant Q-slide was suppose to be working with other apps, like the whole browser not just certain videos, and it was suppose to work with other apps natively. In the notification bar there was suppose to be a Q-slide bar under the brightness bar and you could select apps to play over your current app.

bloat isn't really a factor here but we can all expect better JB roms

Dude I NEVER had that option since I took the phone out the box at the AT&T store. You're saying you had that to begin with? I find that very odd....
So I did some searching around to see exactly what Q Slide is SUPPOSED to be and I think you must have this feature confused with something else or another phone all together. Even on various videos and LG's own website, Q Slide is used to watch VIDEOS and use apps at the same time. It says absolutely nothing about having 2 different apps on top of each other at the same time. I think you are confusing yourself mate.
