    Post How to disable Air Command (or any system app) after the Oreo update?

    Suggest reaching out to the dev. I believe they've updated the app, but it may not be available directly via the Play Store.

    Post [SM-T825/T820] Re-Activate adoptable storage

    Is there no way to enable adoptable storage without tripping the Knox bit? I was able to do this on my S2 without issue, which meant my employer's security app didn't complain and I still received the OTAs without issue.

    Thread Moving from Project Fi to VZW: Factory Reset Needed

    Greetings, I'm going to migrate from Project Fi over to VZW. Do I need to do a factory reset before inserting the VZW sim, or can I simply pop it in and be on my way? I seem to recall someone indicating that activating the 5x on Fi did some low-level network setup that needed to be "undone"...

    Post [Q] Best way to continuously defer 5.1 update

    Thanks. Do I need to worry about the update self-executing at some point, similar to what I saw on my HTC One? Or will it stay dormant until it is activated by the user? GG

    Thread [Q] Best way to continuously defer 5.1 update

    Greetings, Just bought a VZW Moto X 2014 loaded with 5.0. Unfortunately, right after I powered it on, it pulled down the 5.1 OTA, though it appears to have deferred the installation, which is good, as I intend to give it the MOFO treatment shortly. Questions: 1. How can I continue to defer...

    Thread [Q] Any sightings of the official VZ 4.4.2 OTA?

    I'm in the midst of rooting - grabbing a late hour here, late hour there. Probably about 50% through the whole SlapMyMoto downgrade / upgrade process. Was warned that I need to get this done asap, as once 4.4.2 is out, all bets are off. As part of the SlapMyMoto process involves allowing...
