OTA Started Without Permission

OTA Update downloaded to my phone, hit remind me later a few times

Towelrooted my phone to manually update to Lollipop so I can keep root

Phone just shut off and is trying to install OTA on its own

Now I'm pissed, every time I turn phone on, it will start the update.

Is there any way to stop this and get back to my Kitkat so that I can manually install Lolli?

How to get started in android app development

Hi everyone, I've recently finished to read a very thorough book about java programming and now I'd like to put into practise what I've learned. I'd like to start developing android apps, but, even though I searched a lot through internet to find something that could help me with this, I didn't find much. So I'm asking you, what should I do to learn how to develop android app and how should I begin?

Help thread. HTC one m8, Started having several issues !

Hi community,
I've been using my Htc one m8 (locked with Rogers) for a little over a year now with no issues. It's not rooted, running sense 6 android 5.0.1 for awhile.
All of a sudden several issues started creeping up: first double tap to wake up stopped working, and the shortcut to the camera (turning phone side ways and pressing volume down). Then the proximity sensor stopped working. later on i noticed that nfc wouldn't turn on and the phone didn't know if it was on landscape mode or portrait (making it an issue when viewing pictures or videos) and this were all in the lapse of 24hours.
so I factory reset it and it seemed to work for a couple of hours but then all the issues creeped back (NOT all at the same time). At this point I thought it was because of an app or my back up. SO factory reset it again and set up as new device but this time it didn't fix the issue at all .
After that I tried factory factory reset it a couple of more times with no success, tried having my phone fixed but I couldn't find a store in montreal that is willing to try and fix it (they all say if the open the phone they might wreak it ??!!)
Called htc they asking me to send the phone by mail for 100$ and then they'll tell me how much it cost to fix it.

As far as i know the phone didn't drop ! :( and has the latest updates

Can anyone help me? do you think flashin a rom will fix this or does it sound more like hardware issue?

I appreciate any help/tips you can give
thank you
