I know this has been asked but how do I disable ota updates on my rooted G4? - T-Mobile LG G4

I would like to disable them and get rid of some bloatware that T-Mobile has put on this phone. If y'all can give me a good app and the apks needed get rid of I would be very thankful.
Thanks in advanced

You may want to take a look @ MicroMod777's debloated rom. It has the major bloaters removed already and OTA disabled.
I'm running it without issue.
Good Luck

You can freeze and uninstall apps with Titanium Backup.. It's a great program to have.

So I went to flash the debloater zip file and it put all the T-Mobile stuff back on my phone. Did I do something wrong?
Sent from my LG-H811 using Tapatalk

Did you put the debloated ROM on your phone or the debloater app because they're two different things. Also are you ROOTED because you can't use the debloated ROM unless you're rooted unlocked and custom recovery installed.

I have the Debloater T-Mobile rom zip drive. I have flashify and twrp while being rooted and oem unlock.

Is your bootloader unlocked and TWRP already installed?

It should be unlocked when I choose OEM unkock

Well if you have TWRP installed already then all that's left to do it boot into recovery, make a backup ( in case bad things happen) wipe cache ( TWRP may already do this while flashing ) and then flash the debloated ROM.

first time in twrp it asked me something about making the system read only to stop future ota updates? did you guys do that or? I think the button said "read only" so it would make it read only?

Also without flashing a new rom can i disable ota updates? There has to be a file or app I can remove?

I'm vaguely remembering that but I think it's asking it you want to allow an OTA to wipe over TWRP. You probably wouldn't and that because then you'd probably lose root and recovery.

First page of the development section, about 15 threads down (stock rooted Gingerbread):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1348637
Flash that, then unroot. Or you can use LGPNST to flash the V7 Gingerbread .tot file. Either way will get you back to stock Gingerbread.
I just used this method and didn't have any issues at all getting back to stock, and I was then able to install the ZV8 update as well.
This may be a dumb question, but if I use the one click root/unroot to unroot my phone for this update, do I need to worry about clearing the caches and removing the rom and theme first or can I just run the unroot.bat file and be good to go?
Anyone have an answer please?

You first need to flash the stock rom, then you can click unroot.
You don't have to clear your cache and previous data but it's recommended.

Edit: I restored my nand back to just root and error is gone. Everything I read seems to a link this error on At&t phones, so I don't know why I got it here. I will hold off on flashing roms on this for a while, and continue flashing on my phone where I don't ever have any issues.

Great work. Two things I have rooted by installing cwm recovery then flashing this rom and Google search keeps force closing. I flashed the deodexed version, first I just did a dirty flash, since I was coming from unrooted stock, so I thought maybe ifi go through all the wiping steps, factory reset and then flash but it still fc s. Second thing I thought maybe I'll try the odexed version since I'm coming from stock unrooted and the link won't work. The little green download button pops up but when it's pressed nothing happens then says page won't load. Any ideas?

How do I revert back to stock MI3 NO ROOT?

Anyone have the files?

If you have mj4 I don't believe a downgrade is possible
Though you can downgrade from mi5 no problem.
The stock mi3 file is still up at the Samsung update website. I don't remember the link at the moment.

Yup I knew that was previously the case, and was pretty sure there was no workaround.
I hate when they do cap like that to the bootloader.
I'm going to take that as confirmation, as I knew back when mj4 first came out and I was maintain a Knox safe root thread. There were a few issues of people tripping Knox Even on a complete stock uprooted phone attempting to downgrade to run the Vega files.
Just hadn't looked into it since then wasn't sure someone hadn't worked around it.
Though why you would want to go back to mi3 is another question.

Yup, there are a few stock mj4 options (with or without root)
Check the development section.
I personally usually use Odin to flash the full official Samsung mj4 tar.

If you are using any third party root permission managers like SuperSu

Could you not just download the file and delete the recovery.bin from the .zip? Not 100% sure that'll work, but thought I'd throw it out there.

Yup. I deleted recovery and boot images leaving just system and it flashed only system preserving my TWRP.
I needed a quick 100% stock system to check if there is an update for Stagefright so it was a quick way to flash it.
I am starting to think about moving off of a TMO ROM even sacrificing WiFi calling in a process as the bloat and problems with upgrades are a bit discouraging to me. I guess I am spoiled with my Nexuses and 1+ in this regard and G4 is my first mainstream phone. Locked bootloader, a mess with updates..... not sure if I've made a good decision....

So did you just flash the system.img (only) with TWRP? Or the whole zip without boot.bin and recovery.bin? I could use this to revert back to stock with root, and debloat from this? Also, is it stable this way?
After u download flash how?
Sent from my LG-H811 using Tapatalk
I think I screwed up, but I'll learn from it. I find this to be the hardest I've done to root. The G4 requires so much, I'm my opinion. It's not bricked, that's all it matters.

Update available h81110n

I just updated LG Bridge trying to do a backup so I can try and root from the one click method. After LG Bridge updated I decided to check for an update and sure as **** there was one. I'm running it now. It is 1.66GB.
Are you noticing any improvements to touch response, performance, temperature, etc?
Sent from my LG-H811 using Tapatalk
So far I can't make it all the way through the update process. I'm not sure if it is because of my attempts to root my device with the one click method and now stock recovery isn't on the phone?
UPDATE: Seems as though my drivers got messed up when my computer updated the LG Bridge app. Phone seems to be updating now.
UPDATE: Still just 5.1. Too soon to tell what has been improved upon.

You will most definitely have problems if you try to OTA update while having twrp. You'll have to re-root and re-flash twrp assuming the methods available now are still successful. Once someone packages it into a flashable zip you can keep twrp and root after flashing

Just tried it and I'm able to get 8 unplugged if I'm not moving fingers, was only able to get 6 before the update. Seriously tho I can notice the difference in responsiveness and overall use of the phone. Much snappier - this is what I was expecting when I first got the phone.
