I trashed my Galaxy Core Prime a few weeks ago (1st & last Samsung I'll ever own), now I'm back on my Ultimate 2.  I wiped the data, restarted, and no sooner than I finish the initial setup process, 2 LG updates immediately start downloading, so I didn't have choice.  After the updates finished, I rebooted, and the lockscreen had a button at the bottom for "emergency call", and a message under the clock widget that read "No sim card".  Furthermore, the lockscreen shortcuts were gone, so I uninstalled the keyguard update.

After another reboot, the lockscreen was completely gone!  I had issues in the past like this, if I disabled the LG Home launcher, or removed the ChromeWithBrowser.apk, and a few other ROM changes.  And once the lockscreen was gone, I couldn't figure out how to get it back, short of restoring a backup image, or worst case, resetting the phone again.

So when the LG updates started downloading after another reset, I cancelled the keyguard update, but I couldn't stop the SystemUI Update Helper in time.  Anyway, I started Titanium Backup, froze the LG update apps, opened root explorer, deleted the SystemUI update .apk in '/data/app-system' (couldn't be uninstalled from App Manager), and rebooted.

Guess what?  Problem solved.  Now if only I could fix the disappearing lockscreen without resetting the phone.

I'm still running the factory ROM, with a few minor mods, in case you're wondering.

Yea, I kinda knew this was gonna happen. I will try to remove the updater app and see if that fixes any of the issues, I just don't know why LG would find the need to update these 2 apks on an over 3 year old phone.

Well, GSM is going to want to be the one you should use as long as it's not activated. You can go to the TF website and activate it there.

So far no bad notes on the phone yet, my sister loves her Moto HE Play.

Nothing out of the norm. I myself tore my phone apart Put a broken phones insides in it Fixed the virus issue but left me with another now i gotta get my service information onto the rebuilt phone.
