Aren't we looking for 21.11.21?

The file name is from the system version you are coming from

No

The file name says mobgenie apk. That can't be right.

Edit: mirror worked. Thanks

You are looking at the wrong thing. That is spam. Go back to the actual devhost page

Does it kill root or lock boot?

Kills wp off for the locked bootloader, didn't relock my bootloader

Just_Jim · Jul 10, 2014

Thank you, thank you, thank you

I still have an unlocked bootloader (thanks to the chinaman) and root (thanks to twrp)

I have a Droid Mini XT1030

thanks, is the official ota 4.4.4 should be used the recovery of the original droid maxx?

Best practice is to use the stock recovery for the system version you are using. So if you are on 4.4 19.6.3 then use the recovery from that fxz

This sentence makes no sense. Try again.

OTA patch snag

Whether I attempt the patch via the OTA push or via the download => stock recovery, I'm hitting a snag and getting the message "system/build.prop has unexpected contents".

I'm rooted and unlocked. Only other mod is Native Tether for Kit Kat 19.5.3.

Any suggestions as to the root cause and/or a workaround? Thanks in advance!

Replace the build.prop you used for the tether hack with the original build.prop

thetoolbox · Jul 10, 2014

Thanks for the advice regarding the original build.prop file. I've reviewed the directions for Native Tether for Kit Kat 19.5.3 and I'm not seeing a step where build.prop is backed-up or modified, so I'm stumped regarding how to replace the current modified build.prop with the original.

I'd appreciate any suggestions or help. Thanks again.

Sorry didn't notice the .5. If it's saying there is an issue with the build.prop file then you will have to replace it. I'll see if I can find it and send you a link.

You may also have to delete the vzwentitlementservice.apk that you downloaded and placed in priv-app and rename the old ones, deleting the .bak

Would it be possible for you to send me the stock build prop also. I thought I renamed it correctly but now it will not boot and if I try to install the update it says the build.prop is missing. I'm guessing I will have to try to push the build prop it with adb if I can figure out how. Thanks
