T-mobile tried to Force OTA update on JF build - G1 General

OTA update notice this morning even though it's a JF signed build. It stated something about "security".
I Pulled the battery and booted with home+power and reapplied JF rom from SD.
The battery removal may have been adequate, But reapplying the update.zip may also have been what helped me to avoid the update for now.
I'm disabling my APNs, etc. until somebody finds a way to keep them from updating these phones.

I got the same message, I thought i had missed something since i havent been on the forums in a while.
any help would be nice on this issue

Mine is also downloading the update,and i'm on Cyanogen's rom!WTF?

Running the same here, no update yet but I've disabled apn's just to be safe until I find out what exactly the update does.

I'm running Cyan's 3.6.7.2

If i go to settings>about phone>system updates it tells me download complete requires restart.i restarted the phone but nothing happens,it starts to download the update again.

Quick question just recently rooted my G1..anybody having any problems with this? i mean can't we always just downgrade and rehack if worst comes to worst?

im using the JF US cupcake

running cyonogen experimental build and have yet to see an update

See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=538059

http://jf.andblogs.net/ look here for your answer as to why your getting the updates

Haven't seen this on Cyanogen 3.6.7.2

Just checked for kicks and it's there, I'm running Cyanogen 3.6.7.2

stop worrying, even if you download it, you wont be able to install it.

I haven't touched APN's.
Turn off Data Roaming by going to Settings > Wireless Controls > Mobile networks
This worked wonders for me. I never got a notification about OTA updates again... more importantly, my phone doesn't shut off randomly anymore.
I'm running JF1.51 but that shouldn't matter...

I had the same issue when i was installing wrong CF root. Check if the root is for your firmware version

I think the problem wasn't from the root because i rooted the phone after upgrading to froyo and this was from a month ago, but this problem suddenly happened after i restarted the phone yesterday.
I flashed the new 2.2.1 firmware and the problem solved
but now vibration doesn't work
and it doesn't have arabic lang. so i can't read anything written in arabic.
I think i will flash 2.2 back again, but the new firmware is very fast and everything runs so smooth, no need to lagfix.
I know the answer! The battery icon mod with the percentage is not correct for your firmware.
It happened to me before when I tried to put the jpo battery mod on the official italian jp5 fw and also if I try to mod the battery icon of the latest jpu.
It's a problem due to messing up the framework-res.apk file.
So, revert back the battery mod to the original icon and everything will work again.

[Q] Just a weird screen flicker, normal?

I've had my phone since end of November so its one of the original rev.
Just a few minutes ago I rebooted my phone to recovery and this is what happened.
- Rebooted to Recovery (TWRP)
- Screen turned White
- Didn't do anything and went to take a picture of it.
- Took a Picture (view below)
- Then it loaded TWRP but screen is still flickering
- Didn't touch anything and it went to the bootloader menu and screen was still flickering.
What I mean about flickering, the screen was still viewable just the brightness was going higher and lower.
- Rebooted back to System (still flickering), tried to record it but couldnt really since the quality of the cam couldn't see what was going on.
- Rebooted back to TWRP, loaded it fine but still flickering.
- Rebooted back to System and it went away.
- Rebooted back to TWRP and it looks fine.
Modem: .83
OS: 4.3
ROM: Paranoid Android 4.3 August 16
Kernel: hells-Core b33-ANY
Now someone might say oh its the kernel, probably kernel or ROM. But this happened in both the bootloader menu and TWRP and during that time ROM and kernel wouldn't be running.
Anyone has had this happen, please share your experience
Wanted to know if this is a known thing or my phone is starting to die?
Only dropped once like 6 months back and thats w/ a hard case on.

Happened to me twice till now. I think it's just a bug with gpu and a reboot should fix that. Although, I have no clue why it happens or what triggers it. Also I have noticed that both the times it happened to me, I was rebooting into recovery (TWRP).

Ah alright thanks, good to know I'm not the only one or at least its known.
I practically flash my phone weekly/daily and never had that happen to me before so when I did it today I was like wth lol. Now with my experiences with computers when it something flickers like that or graphic errors we think drivers and if its not loaded up we think its memory dying so I was already trying to diagnose it lol..
But if its a known issue guess I cant do anything about it, at least its back in working condition :good:
The same thing has happened to me, but when I am running Google Maps. The first time it happened the screen became unresponsive and I went to reboot and had the same flashing screen you are describing. I started freaking out and went to reboot again and it was persistent in the boot screen each time. After about 5 minutes it stopped but I still have issues with my phone freezing with Maps and now when I look at flash videos on the stock Browser (I don't use Chrome).
I had a similar issue with my Macbook Pro when I accidentally block the exhaust but my phone is set to very lore frequency's with SetCPU.
I am using AOKP Milestone 2 and Ziddy's kernel for OTG support.

I read a report about some faulty code (something about a camera daemon) that was keeping the camera in memory after it was no longer needed in KitKat builds....apparently Google's working on a fix...
This could be it. Or maybe your problem is different...if you're rooted, you can try wiping cache, dalvik, and battery stats....
(<---Remember to Thank me if this helps :good

Hi,
My phone is not rooted.

are you on Wifi ? Saw your wifi always ON, but no wifi icon on your status bar.
if you are not on wifi, but your wifi always on, try to off "always scan" in the advanced wifi setting.
Other than that, you can try to off your google location. go to account, google, location. OFF it.
if still not work, since you are on stock non rooted, try to do factory reset, go to recovery (vol up + home + power), and do wipe from there.

[Q] Wifi not switching on

Hi All,
Problem: Wifi is not switching on my Galaxy S4 (I9505). It's been grayed out and I'm unable to switch it on.
Actions taken: I've been researching and trying to resolve this problem non stop for nearly 24 hours. I've done the following:
- Upgraded my stock to CyanogenMod 11 since I (naively) thought it would rectify the wifi problem. (cm-11-20141008-SNAPSHOT-M11-jflte)
- Updated my modem to the latest one I could find (I9505XXUGNG2_MODEM)
- Installed the wifi fix (I9505XXUGNG8_WIFI_FIX)
- Tried a bunch of other suggestion (e.g. using sqlite to change some setting values.)
No sure what more I can do, and I'm starting to think it might be a hardware problem?
Are there any more suggestions? Or is there any way to debug it and find out if it's an hardware problem?
Appreciate any help I could get , coz this is driving me crazy!

Try downloading the latest version of your firmware on sammobile.
If it doesn't work, try installing a custom ROM, like "Imperium ROM". It should "repair" the issue.
"Imperium ROM" replaces the kernel (It should also fix this)
Thanks, will give Imperium ROM a try but doesn't Cyanogenmod also replace the kernel?
OK, I tried downloading the latest firmware - No Help
Also tried installing new kernel over the cyanogenmod kernel
- Tried Ktoon but it broke a few more things such as basic connectivity and did not help with the wifi issue (i.e. KT-SGS4-KK4.4-AOSP-INTL-07.12.2014)
- Currently running Alucard but the wifi issue still persist (i.e. Kernel-Alucard-V1.4ocm-[00-22]-[09-11]-AOSPV2-EUR-KK4.4-SGIV-PWR-CORE)
Haven't had a chance to try a Imperium ROM, since I needed my phone and didn't have sufficient time to wipe and reinstall all data and apps. Any other suggestions before flashing a completely new rom?
Revert to stock.
Flash stock rom twice
First time, let odin auto reboot and you configure your phone. Then go to download mode again
Second time flashing, uncheck auto reboot. Keep phone off for 5-10 minutes after flashing and then turn on.

Wifi not turning on after unlocking

I was running 7.1.1 when i unlocked my Nexus 6P.
After it wiped and rebooted, i could not see any wifi networks.
I went to sleep and wifi appeared to work in the morning but stopped again and i could not see any wifi networks around me.
i left beta program and went back to 7.0 (NBD90X), wiped and rebooted. same problem. but wifi did appear at one point but stopped again.
when look at the settings. it says wifi disabled. i click on the wifi settings, it just hangs at "Turning wi-fi on...)".
i have since, loaded TWRP and rooted. same effect on wifi.

Maybe you can try this way : settings - location - scanning(Upper right corner) - turn off wifi scanning.
My English is not good, but I am willing to be patient to help you.
thank you for your help. turning off scanning did not have an immediate effect.
again this morning, it was working but stopped a short time ago. when i try to turn WiFi on, it feels like it is just hanging and can't start fully.

i completely removed root and locked the phone and still no ability to see WiFi at all.
Dont know if this will help you, but I was having the same problem with my tablet. I flashed everything back to stock and then rooted, flashed latest TWRP , and ROM and the problem was resolved.
I ended up just claiming a warranty on it after it wouldn't work with stock ROM and updates.
Thanks!
