Ok so I installed the FOTAKILL.apk so I can stop receiving the annoying OTA update request for JB 4.2 my question is though, how can I remove this apk once I want to update or when google releases a better update? Thanks in advanced!

2.3.4 has bug fixes and adds video chat. Plus theres another surprise that google is keeping secret.
The links aren't the update, these are the proprietary blobs required if you're installing/building AOSP and need the drivers.
The surprise is a contest giveaway.

yup.. how silly of them to use that word in the same tweet they announced 2.3.4...
Don't they know we are taking every word about Android releases seriously?

Can someone post the Gtalk apk from this? Don't want to switch away from CM7, but I also don't want to wait for Cyanogen to merge the changes just so I can video chat...
any rooted stock 2.3.4 floating around ?

No, you can't flash it since it's an incremental update from GRI40 as the name implies. No you wouldn't brick it, it would just refuse to flash.
The easiest way to see if there is even a chance one can flash an update is just looking at the name. The incremental updates have *build*-from-*build* in their name.

Hi
Since I know some of you have issues finding the link to the new android market (v3.0.26), I thought that I'll post the app here...
enjoy
Isn't it supposed to update itself?
When is the official update coming out? Is it safe to install this apk file?

Do we really need another thread about this?
How do I stop the 4.2 ota? I been reading a lot of bad news about it and no support for stickmount app which I use a lot. I already checked with titanium backup but I can't find the right app to freeze in order to stop firmware updates. Anyone know how to do it?

I really don't want to wipe all my data and I want to keep it just stock. I mess around with my gs3 enough I want to leave my nexus 7 stock rooted. I use stickmount on a daily basis so I'm not going to 4.2 until it is compatible

i would like to know how to disable the notification as well.. tia..
Root your nexus and disable ota.
I recommend using wugs toolkit to root since it is so easy
And 'Gemini app manager' or 'Root app delete' ('disable' or 'block' ota, just dont 'uninstall'.
thx for the advice.. i was given another solution which i prefer a bit more..

I followed this guide. It took about 3 minutes and it works. To get updates back I assume just delete the apk from /system/app right/?

Hi, madi32...
Specifically, what do you want to integrate into system?
If you're not rooted, modifying /system isn't possible anyway.
Your post is a little unclear; could you be a little more precise with regard to your question.
Rgrds,
Ged.
As I said I just want to integrate the update of Google apps like YouTube gmail chrome browser only the apps provided from Google well I experience it before with root but it have many problems that's why I reinstall the original firmware
Thanks in advance for help

Still scratching my head trying to understand what you're attempting to do.
The apps you mention... updates to YouTube, Gmail and Chrome... will all work perfectly fine without being integrated into /system.
Indeed, given the frequency of updates of these apps, it would be a nuisance, if you had to modify /system to install them.
Android is designed in such a way that Google updates pre-installed apps by placing them in /data/app... and can be uninstalled in SETTINGS>APPS>ALL>YouTube/Gmail/Chrome>UNINSTALL UPDATES... which would leave you with the factory installed version in /system/app.
All of which, though interesting, is moot... if, as you say in you're previous post, you're not rooted.
There's not much you can do without root.
Rgrds,
Ged.
Thanks for help but I don't like to root it again cause that will another nightmares for me
Thank you anyway

Just downloaded a 23mb update which appears to be a patch for bug fixes on the official 4.3 update... It downloaded fine, but failed at instaling!!! I'm sure it's because I'm rooted with xposed installed as well. Anyway to correct this so I could proceed with the installation? Any positive feedback will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I would remove the framework, set survival mode in SuperSU, reboot and try again.
Oh wow. Thanks a bunch. So removing the framework will be as simple as installing it? Also, will the ota update still be available even after I had already downloaded it? Thanks again for your help

In the xposed installer app (the green droid with a red x and stitches) you can tell it to remove the framework with the cleanup option.
Yes. Ok, I'll give it a shot. Thanks again. Btw, New York Giants all the way! ? lol
