It seems you need Firmware on .257 to update simply OTA

could you try OTA survival mode to root 4.3? it's the best chance to root this firmware (just now)

does OTA preserve root? like 257 did

Is the OTA available over data. I have no access to WiFi and what's the size?

There is already a thread like this that has been open for a while. Seems a bit pointless starting another.

where is it? it seems the only thread about OTA (maybe are you confused with pc companion releases?)

SeanyC is right.
I've posted another Thread only for the Vodafone.DE OTA update. My mistake
Sorry for that.

@ guy
As you see on the pictures it was impossible to update directly Form .534 to .290 :/ ( OTA)

I have rooted .257 I would like trying when it will available
Inviato dal mio C6903 utilizzando Tapatalk

No one said it will work on 534 for.sure.
The best way is - upgrade from rooted 257...
It must work and it must stayed rooted...
As we know, for know, 257 and 290 have same "exploit space" and there is no reason not to work...
One thing.I can't understand, why Kingo and 360 won't update their app?!
It's kinda hard to believe they can't or doesn't know how...
Also, ut would be very good, when you write post for OTA update, to post a link for your firmware.
That way will help everyone to download firmware and update via OTA...

Android-System Battery Drain after Update to Kitkat

Hi There,
after I updated to kitkat, I have more Android-System drain then screen. Over 23% Android-System and round about 20% Screen.
With Jelly Bean I have had 50 % for screen and I could use my Phone for 3 days with normal use, 2 hours Screen ON Time per day...
My Phone is NOT rooted and I can't analyse the drain with wakelook detector.
Maybe anyone have the same issue with the phone and can help me to find a solution.
here a few pics from my phone and the Battery-consumption
excuse me for my bad English!
best regards

Solution is very easy. Factory reset your phone. NOTE: Files in Internal SD would be deleted too. So backup whatever you need, or everything in there to your PC, just in case.

I tried before I post here. Doesn't help! ?
I forgot to tell, I use greenify und disabled a lot of bloat ware
Gesendet von meinem SM-N9005 mit Tapatalk

With pure stock unrooted Kitkat, it seems Android OS/System sits around 17-25% average. You can limit the usage by turning off GPS and uninstalling Google Search / Google+ and switching off Google Now. Reboot into recovery mode (yes stock recovery) wipe cache and then boot up the phone again. Simple no bells and whistles tweak. It works.

Thank you for the answer!
This steps are already done. It doesn't help ?

App Back Up without rooting phone (using Carbon AKA Helium)

I would like to move my subway surfers progression from my S4 to my new Note 4. Another forum advised using Carbon (now changed their name to Helium) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.backup&hl=en_GB which I have used but now it says to restore data I must pay the premium (wish that was obvious before I wasted my time) but hey ho, I was going to buy the licence key but there were bad reviews saying it didn't work or messed up the users phone. My question is has anyone used it before or could recommend another app I can use to back up my app data without rooting my phone. £3 is a lot to waste on an app that doesn't work or can cause problems to my phone

You have a 15 minute refund period for all applications you bought on Google Play.
Try it and get a refund if it doesn't work.

I didn't have to pay anything to restore my apps using Helium. Just make sure the data is on the internal storage of the phone.

I used the free Helium to save my Apps and Data from Note 3 and restored successfully on Note 4

Could you explain this in more detail? I tried to restore from my old RAZR to my Note 4, but I couldn't figure it out. I saved to the internal storage, but I couldn't find the files.

Just pull out the battery and start the phone. If it doesn't boot, try flashing rom via odin (or recovery if rooted.)

Does it reboot again to download mode when you try to exit?

When I remove the battery and put it back it shows firmware update encountered an issue.

It seem that you were trying to downgrade with a locked bootloader(the Sofware Revision of the system you're trying to install is older than the actual system so the bootloader refuse to install it)and as far as i know the AT&T bootloader can't be unlocked so it's impossible to downgrade to a firmware whit older Software Revision ..Reinstall the latest firmware with odin.
P.S: was you trying to downgrade to use towelroot exploit?

As long as you haven't connected it to a computer and sent anything to it you can just take the battery out... if you have tried sending an os to it and it locks up mid download then as far as I know you're screwed (in lack of a better word)

As long as the bootloader is still OK you can re-flash.

It is like non downgrable device reflash lastet stock rom with odin and phone booting again :victory:

If I had this screen too, I hade to download the kies 3 software and follow the steps they told. Works pretty well after getting a little practice

REDMI NOTE 7 - Notifications only with the cell phone in use

Hello guys! I recently purchased my Redmi Note 7 and am 99% satisfied with it ... the only thing that bothers me is that I only receive notifications while the phone is in use! By blocking the screen, I will no longer receive the message notifications in whatsapp. It is as if the cell phone turns off the internet while it is locked and when unlocking the phone the notifications start to appear all at once. Has anyone had the same problem and can you help me?

In most cases, simply reinstalling the app should do the trick

Factory reset did the trick for me.

I have the same problem and I have bought this device Yesterday, it's like the WiFi turns off when the screen is locked and it reworks when I unlock it like you have told.
Btw I have installed WhatsApp normally and restoring the backup by drive, so without any other app.
Can someone pls help me?
