I received another software update last night, which I postponed for the time being. How do I stop the update from happening altogether? Last time it automatically updated without approval.

For the at&t S4 running 4.4 kit kat. I just don't want any more surprises at the moment and don't know what it contains. I'm slammed at my job and I'm sure I have only a few more hours until it does it automatically

I have the same phone & have not received or heard of any post-KK updates.

Too late. Forced me to take it. Just FYI though I was already running 4.4.2. This is something else, not sure what...wait for it.

Very strange. I'm also running 4.4.2. Again, no chatter out there about KK or AT&T updates for the S4.

What is your baseband version after the patch? I'm guessing you are just now receiving the NC1 update.

I did receive the NC1 update two weeks ago, is this what you are referring?

I'm still on nb1. Haven't received any notices from AT&T, etc. or have I tried updating manually. What's the difference?

Root your phone...so no updates would be forced on you.

You can turn off auto updates. look In the updates menu. it's how I stopped mine from doing it lol

I'm confused, you did flash a custom ROM right? If so it was for the right phone version right?

Go to connections--more networks--mobile networks--access point names and there you must have something.
If it's empty you have to manually create one. Hit menu then new apn. And for the correct values do a search for your carrier apn

APN under telus says enable but not high lighted but has check mark when I go to about phone it give me at t model i9505 this has to be wrong

I'm guessing your last phone was a Samsung? I had the same thing happen because Google Play pushes what was last installed on your device so if you had a Samsung with Samsung push services it will install it. I started freaking out when my phone started downloading 100 apps and started eating my data up lol.
Just remove the push service from Google Play and it won't happen again if you factory reset or something.

I even tried the S4 but returned it, much happier with this device. Now I just need to find a mod to try out that works for the Canadian phone...

I just talked to a guy using Civato's rom and apparently Deus ex the fall works for him (a bit laggy, he says, but works). That being said, the problem must be somewhere else, not in the KitKat update. Question is... where?!

OmegaRom Find My Mobile not working?

So the other day I was going through my settings since I'm fairly new to the S5 and noticed there was a feature that was just like the windows phone find my phone but a little better. I tried to use it and turn it on but after going back to the original security page it still says off or when I add a number to the part where it will notify you when the Sim I changed it doesn't save the number. Any ideas on how to fix this? I'm also using the tmobile variant of the s5

I am also using Omega ROM. And it is working in mine. Did you uninstalled or froze any system apps?... It might be due to that.

No... Mine is working properly, no matter what I do...
Hmm I'll pull a log cat.. I have done multiple clean installs and everything possible.. maybe it doesn't work with the T-Mobile variant.

After reading around and searching. The Samsung security feature is not on the t-mobile variant. The t-mobile one used lookout instead of findmymobile

Strange S4 behavior

My S4 is acting crazy lately. Seemingly randomly several download icons show up in my notification area. And it's old downloads that have been moved or deleted. Any idea what's going on? Thanks.
are you rooted with a custom recovery/rom
what's your build
what have you done to fix it
I'm rooted with stock and safestrap. It's 4.3 mk2. And since I have no idea what's going on I've done nothing to try to fix it.

Still looking for help with this one. It used to happen just once in a while but now it's like this almost all the time. Very annoying.

Thanks for the replies but my problem has gone away, per se. I ended up accidentally knocking the S4 off my desk at work and cracked the screen and screwed up the display. Now I have a S5 Active. Thanks again.
