How to disable System Update notifications - AT&T LG G4

Hey guys,
Big thanks to @autoprime for mentioning this info on this in the general G4 forum. Figured I'd sum up the steps and repost in our sub-forum for anybody who may be struggling.
If you're like me, you're waiting on root and don't want to accidentally take that new OTA update that was pushed out about a week ago. This OTA has been found to prevent rolling back to previous versions of android, and may also block some/many of the root methods that the developers are preparing to release to us.
If System Update is constantly bugging you to update, follow the directions below:
1) Enable USB Debugging
-Go to About phone and tap on Build number 10 times to enable Dev Options
-Enter Developer Options and enable USB Debugging
2) Download and Install the Debloater tool (this happens on your computer)
-Windows http://rootjunkysdl.com/getdownload.php?file=Gates/DeBloater/Debloater-setup-v3.85.exe
-OSX http://rootjunkysdl.com/getdownload.php?file=Gates/DeBloater/Debloater.v.3.85.dmg
3) Connect your phone via USB. Make sure to install any drivers needed
4) Watch for pop up requesting ADB Access on your phone
5) Launch the Debloater tool
6) Select OK on the popup
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
7) Click the top left button
8) Find LGDMSClient.apk and put a checkmark next to it. Then select Apply at the top
Congratulations! You no longer have to worry about pocket-updating your G4 and not being able to root down the road!

I just got the G4 yesterday. I didn't do my homework first and did the updates. Am I screwed when it comes time to root? (If ever)

Delete

I just went into Settings/Apps/Google Services Framework and unselected Show Notifications. This took the warning out of the Notification Bar.
Not certain yet in the event that it will keep the popup for the framework OTA overhaul.

Deleted

I saw on a website that there were other things listed in addition to what you blocked to avoid OTA updates. Should these be taken into consideration?
LGUpdateCenter.apk
LGFOTA.apk
LGLDB.apk
EDIT: I used that debloater tool and disabled that stuff. I've had no problems with the phone after that except for the AT&T bloatware.

How to Connect Sony DriveLink (MirrorLink) With GS4
Full credit to AuRoN89 for uploading HERE.
Intro
This is a tutorial for how to use Sony's car system(s) to their maximum potential. I cant guarantee this works with every model, however, because I only have the XAV601BT (seen in picture above). Before you do this, you need to make sure the latest firmware is installed. For a guide on that CLICK HERE.(NOTE: This link is for the XAV601BT. If you have a different device, go HERE, enter your model number on the bottom left, and click "Update to the Latest Firmware")
Step 1: Enable "Unknown Sources"
From the Home screen, tap Apps > Settings > More tab > Security.
Tap Unknown Sources.
A check mark is displayed to indicate it is active.
This is to make your phone allow the instillation of the modded DriveLink.
Step 2: Download the Mod
On your phone, go to the following link (I will post mirrors at the bottom):
www.sestogomme.it/drive_link/DriveLink.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Step 3: Install
Now, from the Home screen, tap Apps > Downloads > DriveLink.apk.
You should see this:
Scroll to the bottom, and hit Install.
Note: This app does not cost money. The reason it says that is because it has the ability to answer and make phone calls/texts.
Step 4: Connect to USB
Finally, you need to open MirrorLink on your system. Connect your phone (use your charger cable), and the DriveLink application should instantly start.
Note: You will still get an error on the system when you plug your phone in saying the phone isn't compatible, but you can just ignore it.
Conclusion
I really hope this could help! I spent a while troubleshooting this problem, and luckily found a working link by AuRoN89. It managed to save me money on an additional navigation system. If you have any questions or concerns about this, I will try my best to help. I didn't make this modded version, so I can't answer any questions about what was changed. This guide was simply made as a resource for other people who couldn't find any information on this.

I need help from an expert

Hello, I'm new to xda, it's true that I came before looking for ways to root my mobile, custom roms, etc.
But this is the first time I create a post (If this post does not go in this section please change it)
I'll explain what happened.
My mother-in-law about 1 year ago I give a BGH JOY X5 to my wife, this device has an android 5.1.
Question I wanted to download the google play store app called "DayDream" but it was not compatible with my android version, so I decided to change the android view to 7.0 with "Root Essentials" editing the build.prop, so it was, I edited it and it was successful.
After that, I decided to turn off and turn on the phone, but when I turned it off constantly "x application has stopped" so constantly with everything, I could not open any application, I decided to restore the factory values ​​of the phone to see if that solved it but got worse...
Now turn on the phone, but after selecting a language, it is loading and the poster "x application has stopped" (with "x" I mean any, play services, messages, etc.)
Try entering the recovery mode, keeping the keys "Volume down + power" and I got a menu let's say "Chinese" started playing there and I just found this ...
BB Chip: MT6735
MS BOARD: ZTE_Blade_V580
And other information if I can attach image ...

And another info
Seeing this I decided to download a ZTE Blade v580 rom as it puts me there, but when it comes to connecting the phone does not recognize me and I can not flash it.
Download and install the Mediatek drivers (MTK) and recognize it
Enter the recovery mode and delete the cache and data from there and nothing, remains the same.
Is there any way to return the android to 5.1 that came?
Why the pc does not recognize the mobile?
Thank you so much.​
Hi
Does download mode work

Impossible to reinstall a rom after root

Hello guys,
I'm new here, I've read a lot about your different topics and I'm admirative for some level god members with their answers :good: :laugh:
Indeed I'm a dev, but for websites so it's a bit different with phones for me, and I will try to explain as detailed as I can.
I have a samsung SM G965F, bought in Poland (I work here for the moment); And indeed tried to root it for private purposes.
I followed a tutorial; I was on Pie 9 (****tiest ever update for me); from there OEM in DEV tools was activated, and the TWRP was installed.
the phone wasn't root, but I had the TWRP options (when push Volume up+bixby+lock) so thought I'm on the good way, but only after, and there is my mistake, I understood by reading something that I should make faster an operation when enabled the OEM (before it start to delete all my infos) that I should switch to recovery mode (or installation) and if not there was a story with 7 days to wait.
So the phone was just reseted with only memory card datas not deleted, and the phone was working, just the OEM always disabled, and when you select to enable it it says "ok we reboot the phone you will loose all your files etcc..." and anyway after many attempts, it says always the same after the reboots, and never is enabled after. So I tried to install a new rom, and then I thought I had a problem, in the installation it was written "Secure Check Fail : PIT".
So I tried to found the right rom, with the number "6" inside as per this screen :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then the Secure Check Fail : PIT dissapeared and now its just Fail in Odin.
Also, I tried to reboot normally but it says that there was an error and I need to reinstall with smart view or smart touch, I don't really remember, so I just reinstalled the first TWRP and now the screen of my phone is looping on Samsung, and rebooting.
I'm lost, I spent from 3pm to 4 am yesterday in the internet to found a solution, so my final option is write to ask your help guys.
Hope you can help me, thank you in advance
PS: Sorry for the big picture, there is no acceptance unfortunately for resizing codes, or maybe I just still don't have access to this option cuz I have less than 10 messages, if need delete it or explain me if you need pictures, I did it 10 min ago, even if there is not a lot to do because i'm limited with my phone now

Pixel 4a w/ May 2021 Security Update - Passing SafetyNet check

Hey everyone, I just got back into rooting and well I would like to share some useful information that helped me pass the saftynet check within Magisk in 2021 with the latest security update (May 2021).
First off, I followed this guide to unlock my bootloader and gain root: google-pixel-4a-how-to-unlock-bootloader-root-pass-safetynet
I did run into some issues were I was not able to run fastboot in the cmd terminal.
To fix that, I downloaded
Google Pixel 4A Driver for Flashing Firmware
Google Pixel 4A USB Driver for normal connecting to PC
from here: google-pixel-4a-usb-drivers and it fixed my issues with not being able to run fastboot cmds.
​After that, I was able to unlock my bootloader and root my Pixel 4a.
I followed the last step in the thread google-pixel-4a-how-to-unlock-bootloader-root-pass-safetynet on how to pass the safetynet check but it did not work for me. Installing MagiskHide Props Config and enabling MagiskHide did nothing.
So I downloaded an app from the PlayStore called Turmux where I half followed these steps: MagiskHide Props Config. I say half because the option "force BASIC key attestation" is no longer an available option. I went a different route. I selected the option Edit device fingerprint -> Pick a certified fingerprint and it is pretty self explanatory after that. Just make sure you pick your device model ad double check that the file and path are correct. (more info here)
This helped me pass the basic integrity check but this isn't enough!

Please let me know if there is any confusion that I can clear up.

Magisk hide "Settings" app force closing

A few weeks ago, my hidden Magisk Manager (hidden as "Settings") stopped working. When I try and launch the generic Settings app it sets up, I get the normal FC menu ("Settings keeps stopping") error. I also get it when I open up any app that I previously allowed root access to, but obviously I cannot add new apps superuser access. I also get the FC every time I reboot the phone.
I haven't updated my OnePlus 9 Pro since the ColorOS 12 update came out, as 1) was not a fan, and 2) everything I read said I'd need to wipe the phone to get root back. Needless to say, it's been a while. My phone is currently on the 11.2.10.10.LE15AA version.
This just started happening one day, but I have no idea why. I am not sure what version of Magisk I am on, because I can't open the app. I also tried downloading the latest and installing the APK, but when I launch it, it's says things need to be "fixed" and to reboot. I then get the choice the normal Magisk installer brings up. I tried doing a direct install, but it failed. I also tried to restore the boot image, but it said the backup wasn't found (never seen that either, as I restore images every time I do an OTA).
Not sure what to do at this point. I'm at a complete loss. I would appreciate any help you guys can provide!
Do a LOGCAT to get the very reason why Magisk is not working.
I tried to get it as quickly as possible to minimize clutter, but it's still pretty long. I believe I've found where in the log the FC I captured (by looking for "zygote", but not sure what to make of it. It sounds like a file or something is missing.
