I'm using CleanRom 3.3, last night like others I received the OTA message, I was busy and didn't realise it had automatically downloaded.
I don't want to install it and will wait for custom versions of 4.2.2
My question is how do I stop the OTA from installing, I don't want to reboot my Nexus 7 and have it install itself.
Hopefully I'm not giving you misinformation, but I think there is an OTA update thingy under system/ app that can be disabled.
I keep getting notifications about an ota update for 4.3. It's about 16 MB. When I get sick of seeing it and hit install the phone reboots into recovery where I then get a warning about an unverified package. I then get chicken and don't wow it to install and reboot (it asks to fix root then to for some reason)
Is this safe to install? If not, can I make it stop telling me there is a system update available?
Just purchased a new S5 last night, ... new contract, blah, blah, blah ...
Already it wants to OTA me Lolli.
I have another S5 - for business, & on Verizon as well - & I absolutely hate the new user interface, &, most of all, I cannot stand how you are now forced to manage tabs within Chrome.
Apparently I have to deal with it on that phone, but it is the last thing I want on my personal. 4.4.4 Works great, & I am so very used to it before the first phone's OTA that I stupidly allowed.
How can I stop or permanently refuse the OTA's Software Update Ready To Install pop-ups without rooting for special permissions, etc.?
PS: I went into the "App Info" after long-pressing the notification, & the uncheck box is checked, but is also "dimmed" making it not possible to just turn it off that way.
Thank you for anything, folks.

I'm in the same boat here.
Running 4.4.4 also and even with root access, I can't find the correct app to turn off / modify. I've read at other forums to stop notifications from Google Play Service Framework, but this doesn't work for me. Thanks in advance.
A permanent method is to root and disable the update manager
A temp measure is to wait until you get the OTA update notification, boot into recovery and clear caches, then boot back into Android and tell it to install the update, which will fail because you just cleared the cache where the update was saved - that will delay the OTA for about a day,
You have to do that each time you get the notification, but it will postpone the update indefinitely so long as you keep doing it
I've got a stock, rooted ROM. I wasn't getting the stagefright update so I downloaded it manually and applied it. A few weeks later I finally got a OTA update notification. I can't make the notification disappear permanently. I tried to apply that update, but it reboots into recover (I've got TWRP installed) and the install fails.
How do I get the notification to go away permanently?
Thanks
I'm running Android 6.0, and I am getting penetrated for updating to 6.0.1.
Well, my phone is unlocked, rooted and with TWRP recovery. I did the update to 6.0, but the procedure was quite time-consuming. Play back old backup that only had root but no other system modifications, unroot, flash stock recovery, update, and do the whole thing again. It was ok for a major update, but way to complex for a small one. I would like the security updates, but not at that cost.
What other options do I have? I can't seem to get rid of the annyoing, very pushy Update notification wich just *** pops up in the foreground. All I can do is delay it for 23h59min, which needs multiple inputs for that..
Is there a update file for en.EU that I can flash dirty via TWRP? Or a way to disable the update notifications?

Capture the OTA zip for our common humans didn't received the OTA yet. Download the update, do not install and reboot in recovery. The OTA zip is in /cache folder. With TWRP in /cache and copy the zip to sdcard.

Thank you for your effort! But unfortunately this isn't the 6.01 OTA arriving in March, it's just a security patch from February... Bad news for some of us
On the other hand, you could ban the update notification 'hiding' the Motorola Update Services: adb pm hide com.motorola.ccc.ota
Or like you are rooted, you could freeze the app with some 3rd party like Titanium Backup.

Sorry it's just the security patch. I got the Notification in February, got annoyed a few days with it, and then it dissapeared again, starting to show up again a few days ago.
I also just found out that I can block it via TB (Motorola Update Service), but to know the adb command is nice, thanks.
From what I read to now, the update is not easy, you basically have to start from scratch again, which is too time-consuming. I'll block it for now and check out what that march update may offer.
Yeah I've been getting the notification for about a week now myself. Been doing exactly the same thing as you by setting the notification to 23h59m just to get it to shut up otherwise it bothers me every time I wake my phone. I actually tried to run the update and it just went to TWRP and failed. Would love a way of updating without having to wipe.

Always capture an OTA if possible
