I installed the Note 7 Update Blocker via adb script from the Alliance site weeks ago. So far so good, no Verizon software updates have come through as of 1:34pm on 1/5/17. Not sure that I really need to install the Alliance Shield... Thoughts?

I moved you post because it wasn't related to that topic. I'd think you are fine. Maybe some other people have other opinions.

The adb script is fine. If you want extra protection you can use the shield

Is the adb Script fine whereas I don't need the shield?

I'm concern that it may not be enough to protect me as I do not have a backup phone.

I have BKDisabler, but would like to install Alliance Shield. Will it conflict/cause any problems?

Please read the following post carefully:

As described there:

[If you have a package disabler, now is the time to uninstall the that app. If you don't want to uninstall it, then at least enable all packages. Failure to do so will result in not being able to properly install the shield or block packages with the shield.]
