How to disable OTA update?

I don't want 4.2.2, my phone has it downloaded but not installed. How do I delete the update and/or disable the notification? I've searched and tried options for other phones but nothing has worked except what I did below.
I found that if I freeze "Google framework services" it does what I want, but it also disables all google services (play store,etc) is there another way around this?

SOLVED(temp?):
Downloaded an App called "autostarts",
go into the tab called "after startup"
scroll down to you see multiple "google framework services"
for me it was the 3rd one, should say "xxxx--xxxx-xxx-systemupdateservice" or something like that
disable it, clear cache and reboot.

May I ask why you'd want to disable the OTA updates?
Just curious...

Count me in on this - spent a while this morning trying to find any info on others trying to disable this update (I just got the notification this morning). I'm stock rooted and perfectly happy with my N4 as is. I wish there was a way to just cancel the notification or have it not remind you for a while. It's obnoxious that they cram it in your face.

[Q] Disable OTA Update Notification without root?

I updated my Nexus 4 to 4.2.2 but it immediately broke Sky Go (Sky haven't got round to updating their app to work on 4.2.2). I've rolled back to 4.2 in the meantime but I've got a constant nagging notification asking me to update to 4.2.2 and it's driving me mad.
I've tried searching but I can't find a thread detailing a way to disable this notification without rooting my device (Sky Go doesn't work on rooted handsets, and I use it a lot).
Anyone got any ideas how I can stop this notification while Sky sort their app out?

Disable notifications for app called "Google services framework"
It should be under all applications

Yap and i actually completely disable the app, just in case it goes alive by itself at some point, or after rebooting.

[Q] Maps: black screen

Hello guys,
I got a problem to use maps with my Defy CM10. When you use any app that uses maps such as Google Maps or Foursquare, the location on the screen where it should showing the map is completely black, but all other functions are normal.
I've rebooted, deleted the cache, fix permissions, uninstalled applications, installed again, but nothing solves the problem.
Anyone have any tips or experienced this problem before?
Attached are the screenshots of Google Maps and Foursquare showing a black screen.
Thanks!

If you've disabled HWA for these apps, then just enable it.

Open your App Drawer. There should be an app there called 'Hwa Settings'. When you open it it'll show you a list of all your apps (downloaded and system) with a checkbox next to their names. If you want to enable Hwa then make sure the checkbox is selected and vice-versa.
For ex., if you want to enable Hwa for Hangouts then open the Hwa Settings app, scroll till you find Hangouts and select the checkbox (it's selected by default for all apps)
Hit the Thanks button if you think this information was helpful!

How to stop 4.4.3 update notification

OK, so I am running Beanstalk, and want to stay that way... problem is that I keep getting the factory 4.4.3 update notification. I thought I would be a simple thing to just turn off the SystemUpdateService in Google Services Framework, but it was already disabled. Then I found the SystemUpdateService in Google Play Services and disabled it, problem then is the phone would not sleep.
It's not a huge deal, but is there a simple way to stop the update notifications yet not effect anything else? I remember in the Rezound we used to do a little edit to prop.build and all was well, anything like that here to make the Google Services think that the phone is already on 4.4.3 even when it isn't until the ROM can get updated?

I found one but it is, or might be, Beanstalk ROM specific... I disabled the SystemUpdateService in Google Play Services than used Wakelock Blocker to stop the wakelocks, been fine since.

Great news. Im on Beanstalk as well. I'll give it a shot. Did you blow through your data cap with the update repeatedly downloading? Article about it here

Settings --> Applications --> Google Play Services --> Uncheck "Notifications" option
You can stop only the upgrade notification with the app Autorun Manager

Note that this will stop ALL notifications from Google Play Services, including app update information, just be aware.

That's why I mentioned Autorun Manager. You can select the services individually with this app.

Missing notifications when installing apps

Hello, recently I can't see any notifications when installing apps. There is notification and arrow when downloading app from Google Play, but when download is complete and installing started I can't see any notification. Does it have something in common with action memo disappearing when minimizing?

Go to play store app info în device manager and check on notifications

Thanks, but after your post I found I have unchecked notifications from Google Play in application manager in system setting of the phone. Now it is working. Anyway, thanks for help.
