I rooted my gt-19300 about a week ago and now samsung have brought out the new firmware update. I'm unable to update. The new update downloads and asks for reboot. This take me to CWM where i hit the reboot option but the update fails.
Is there anyway round this? Or just a way to kill the annoying message that pop up every three hours reminding me to update haha
Thanks!!
You have lost your way, this is the i9000 forum

The latest Verizon update isn't doing me any favors. I'm a rabid baseball fan and it trashes MLB at Bat live game video and does some other rather unwanted stuff to Flash. It was easy enough to flash the original system back on and blow away the update so everything worked again but now the SGT insists on reminding me fairly often that there's an update I want nothing to do with. Any idea on how to shut it up?
Root your tab that'll stop ota updates.

Incorrect. Rooting will not stop it at all. Perhaps if you use root explorer and go into cashe file and remove it that might work for a bit. Not sure but rooting will not

Good luck with that. I deleted the 2 files in my cache folder using root explorer that had the correct size and date. It seemed to work..... untill I had to reboot my tab. After I rebooted, I got the notification again, and this time, there is no file with today's date or the correct size in the cache folder.
I was getting constant popups the first time around untill I deleted those files, after which, nothing untill I restarted. So those must have been the correct files. I don't understand where the new ones are now.

Rooting alone will not stop the ota. The developer of the custom rom generally removes the ota feature.
note I have not tried this since I already got the update....and if you brick something its not my fault...
you could try to change the ro.build.fingerprint so maybe the update service still think you already got the update. this method worked to stop a droid ota update.
in /system/build.prop file change it to:
ro.build.fingerprint=verizon/SCH-I800/SCH-I800/SCH-I800:2.2/FROYO/EC02:user/release-keys

In the past, people have renamed "Otacerts.zip" to "Otacerts.zip.bak" in /etc/security/ . You may also want to choose "Install Later" first, then delete the file in the cache folder on your SDcard. Then reboot.
You can use either Root explorer (easy option) or Terminal, though every time I try to install a Terminal emulator, it fails on my tab
I haven't tried this myself, but I will be doing it tonight.
my understanding with the cert rename is that the user will still get the download and the prompts to install....its just that it fails during install when the signature doesnt match
so you will be saved from accidently installing but will get a lot of notices that you need the update.
I could be wrong though.

This is bull****. Damn pop ups every 15 minutes, I feel like im trying to surf the web with AOL. My poor 4 year old was trying to watch a movie and I kept hearing her get upset, stupid update would interfere with the movie.
Im not going through all that bull**** just for an update I dont care about, there has got to be a way to kill this thing off.
Any progress on this? I read about editing the build.prop to EC02, but that didn't work for me either.

What I did on my Droid Charge was back-up build.prop and then change every place where to referenced the old build number and change it to the new build number. Then I saved the file and then rebooted. I got one last warning about the OTA update and then it went away.
Hey guys,
I've always had HTC devices, and this is my first non-HTC phone.
I'm pretty familiar with HTC's RUU's, but I'm a bit confused with my Note.
I rooted my phone, and installed CWM and 3.0.15-franco.kernel... but stayed with Samsungs stock Android.
Now, this morning I received a mssg saying I had an update available, which I said yes to. After restarting, the phone told me that it was impossible to apply update.
Now I check for updates and there are no longer available.
I'm on 4.0.4.
When this happens again, how should I update? Why can't I see the update again?
D
That is just a notification..
After u flash a new rom u will get it..

About 10 days ago I received the OTA update to 4.2.2...
For your information... My Nexus is rooted using SuperSU and ClockworkMod 6.0.2.3
After reading about people losing root etc and having to redo everything, flashing SuperSU and stuff I decided to postpone the update.
I was working at an exhibition and had no desire to flash SU and redo the worx...
This morning I sat down, connected my phone to my PC (USB debugging appeared) and my phone connected as a Media Drive...
I initiated the update and rebooted the phone and guess what... My phone is still rooted... Everything is working fine...
Am I the only one or is this normal and did I overlook a topic here?
Anyway and for what it's worth, I thought this info might be useful.
That's because CWM can keep root for you.

Great, didn't knew this...
Guess my discovery wasn't such a discovery after all
This is great news i didnt even know this lol so tell me guys is there anything i have to do or just root it and thats it im good for updates?
AW: Received OTA, upgraded to 4.2.2 and DIDN'T LOSE ROOT!
I thought that with a custom recovery or with root you don't get the OTA update offered at all.

I received the update, rooted and on CM... Kept everything else stock though and the update just came in... and stayed there for 10 days, couldn’t wipe the notification away. Anyway, I'm really happy it all went so smooth... Never expected it.
Cheers guys

I just flashed CWM 6.0.3.5, seemed to be working perfectly. On the next recovery boot I got this warning.
Root can possibly be lost. Fix?
This can not be undone
no 7 times in a row (vertically)
yes - fix root (/system/xbin/su)
no 3 more times
I selected fix root from the 11 choices, and my ROM booted just fine. So i restarted in recovery, and again the same warning message.
Another thing I noticed was on the main screen of CWM at the bottom it says
cmw v6.0.3.5
warning no file_contexts
As i said AIOP mod is working fine, just don't like the warning message every time I assess recovery.
Any ideas?
You shouldn't be getting that message every time. But your recovery is outdated. Try the newest cwm in the open of the kit kat rom it's 6.0.4.5. I haven't had any problems with it.

Damn, I wish I remembered how I fixed that problem when it happened to me.
Did you lose root permissions?
My guess would be either SuperSU binaries need to be updated or shouldnt have been updated, causing CWM not reading root properly. Dont quote me on this, its just my guess, haha. probably go with Dvarl's answer.
If you find a fix, please post how, so I can use it for future reference.
I'll check out that update and post what I find out.
Thanks for the help guys.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction! The updated CMW totally fixed the problem I was having. Flashed the Kit Kat Rom, working perfectly so far. The integration of Hangouts as your SMS is a little strange, but easy enough to get going.
BTW, fail for the new kit Kat ROM. Everything was great until my first reboot, then the ROM hung at the Galaxy screen. Had to pull the battery.

Hey guys I had a update menu pop up. Went into recovery and got to 25%. After that phone rebooted and it said update failed to install. I checked the update screen again and it says im up to date. Dis a factory reset and says ita up to dat. Was it a fluke? I have provided a screen sgot to show my latest firmware to see if you guys know if its up to date. Thanks guys.

Since your build number is saying nce i'd say no, theres some odin flashable ng3 files in the general section if you want to give that a shot, i personally dont think im very qualified to give suggestions as far as that goes though, so i'd wait for further instruction from someone who knows more than me.
Sent from my SM-G900A using Tapatalk
Yeah, kernel and build number don't look up to date. I'd think you could follow the guide to odin back to the nc3 completely and try the ota again, or use the ng3 stock rooted firmware available to odin everything up to current (but with root). I looked for stock unrooted ng3 and couldn't find it, although it may be available too.

Go to this thread and download the NG3 update and save it to your ex sd card then go to stock recovery and select install from ex sd card and you'll be good to go
