I have an old HTC Incredible that I am letting my 7 year old son use as a phone and game device. It is no longer activated on Verizon, but by using the wifi connection and a combination of Google voice and an SIP client I have managed to turn it back in to a working phone. It just needs to be near my phone, which has a shared wifi 4G connection, or any other wifi network.
He really enjoys is, and can still download games and make phone calls etc. Everything is great! And Dad doesn't pay a penny for any of it.
Somehow the phone has decided that it needs an OTA update from Verizon now. I obviously can't let it do that, since I am not paying Verizon to use it anymore. The phone constantly asks him if its ok to update the software. Every time it boots, and even when it's just been running for a while.
Here is my question... Does anyone know where the flag is in the SQL database that is triggering this? I would like to reset the flag so it stops asking the question. I have told him NOT to do it, but its just a matter of time until he accidentally does, or his sister does.
Has anyone ever run across that flag while playing in the SQL databases on a verizon phone??
Thanks, any info is greatly appreciated.. I'm surprised there is not more info out there on converting these old phone into stand alone android devices, and some tools to make it easier. Lots of people must have old phones around to do stuff like this with....
