[FIX] Unfortunately, Update Device has stopped.

Flash after the ROM giving you the error.
I'm assuming it only happens to Sprint users, so it also includes the fixed Sprint APN.

Enjoy.

Works great. Thanks.

I don't think a carrier would have anything to do with it at all since this is the Nexus 5, and carriers have absolutely nothing to do with any aspect of the device, both software and hardware.

It does have a lot to do with it actually.
Great fix, seriously a life saver I've been pulling my hair out trying to figure it out. The closest I got was to just delete the apk from the rom if possible before flash.
Thanks so much

Going to try this tonight. Been pulling out my hair trying to figure this out with some roms

Well, whatever it does it worked. I flashed this after installing the AICP 5.0 nightlies that were giving me update device crashes. They no longer occur... thanks

@Lethargy you make me lol in every thread, brighten my days. Hats off to you ??

At least for me, while this zip does make the error message go away, it's not actually installing a working replacement. If you use a file manager and go to /system/app/OmaDmClient and try to install the apk within, you will get the standard install confirmation, not the one for updating existing software (which it should do if the app was already correctly working). So while this is technically a "fix", it's the same as just deleting the buggy apk.

Thinking I skipped setting perms in a rush. Either way, it shouldn't be needed for too long. I flashed to 5.0.1 without needing anything besides the fixed APN. I do see an issue with prl/profile update however.

You a sprint user by chance?

I'm having this same problem on my L720...
I assume this file wont work...
Is there a way to fix on my CM12 install without reflashing?

It should work, all it does is replace an apk and insert apns to /etc

Tried on my LG G2 LS980 with FreedomPop, but it didn't fix the Update Device error. Any clue for the failure?

This "fix" is crap. Don't flash random stuff to your device. No documentation? No source for the included APK?
