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?
So I had the S4 from Rogers which I believe is the i337m. I flashed the Virgin Rom which is a 4.3 Google Play Edition Rom (my phone also says that it is a i9505G in the settings now) and a few times now, I get a message in the notification shade that a system update has been downloaded and needs to be installed. It says that it is the 4.3 edition update (even though I'm already on a 4.3 ROM) but when I click to install it, it just boots into TWRP and does nothing. I'm wondering, if I remove TWRP and return to stock recovery, will my phone install the update that it keeps prompting me to install, and somehow make my phone react like a regular GPE phone with OTA updates?

No, even if you return to stock recovery. You still won't be able to apply the new update. It will fail.

I'm not sure about TWRP, but if they don't have the correct buildprops that are expected by the OTA zip, you wont be able to install it.
I had the official clockwork recovery installed on my i9505G. When it tried to install the official OTA, it downloaded and booted into CWM and tried to install, but since this recovery is built for i9505, the buildprops are wrong, so the OTA fails to install. I extracted CWM and changed the device build properties to match what are on the stock i9505G. Then I booted into that CWM and used "adb sideload ..." to install the update which is still saved in your /cache partition. Since the update will break superuser/su, i then used "adb sideload ..." again to install the zip for superuser again.

Thanks that works great.just hate seeing on ny phone.
I have been watching all the changes and progress for a couple months and gave in to the 110g update a couple weeks ago just to get the icon off my screen. Now Tmo decided to push 4.4 and i've had that icon again sitting there for 2 weeks. I've been debating on what direction I want to go, rooted 4.4 with no real benefits working yet, or keep 4.2 with known possibilities.
So I think I'd like to stay 4.2 for now and be done with it. But.. how do I disable the 4.4 install when I reboot the phone to do other things?
I've had no luck googling it since everything references 4.4 now.
I know that if you have titanium backup pro you can freeze a specific app which is the one in charge of updates(I don't remember the name) and your phone won't show that there's an update

disable the check automatically for update in update center under software update and when the update menu uppers after booting up click cancel.
don't forget to hit thanks if i helped you anyway.
and if i was wrong i was just trying to help.
edit:iam a stock user not rooted.
I didnt see a thread already but my G3 started downloading an update this morning without me accepting or saying anything at all. Obviously with Root and TWRP(Bump) I did not want this. I pulled down the notification bar long pressed on the update download, hit app info, then force stopped the app. I went into Titanium backup, made a backup of System Updates 1_13_10_0 then uninstalled it. I don't know if the download will come back but I don't think so. Also the update was 220ish MB and I have no issues with the phone after uninstalling this. Sorry I didnt get a chance to take a picture of the update since it was almost done lol.
System Updates Frozen
I have the System Updates App frozen in Ti BU. Haven't gotten any hint of an update and I hope it stays that way.
Same thing happened to me it tried installing the update all on its own luckily it said waiting for wifi network to update so I froze the system updates app with titanium back up.
RyanEJ25, I experienced the same thing as you. I have a Verizon LG G3 (vs985), rooted.
Trying to get more info on this system update and what it contains. I don't think it's Android 5.0 lollipop update, but more like a Verizon bug update/improvements.
I tried to run the system update that was downloaded via WIFI, but it failed due to my LG g3 being rooted.
Before I go down the path of backing everything, unrooting and upgrading and then re-rooting, just wanted to make sure the update is worthwhile.

The main thing that threw me off was that USB charge modes have changed. Charge and internet connection are removed from PC connections other than that its general improvements to the keyboard and docs and stuff.
You can temp unroot, take the update, then reroot assuming Verizon didn't load a bullet that kills root.

I'd tend to avoid the update, at least for now, if you want to keep root and twrp. Seems to be a number of people mentioning issues, including trouble reverting to 10b.
I also froze "System updates" with TiBU, going to stay on 10b until things clear up. Freezing that app seems to do the trick.
Why are you posting here, instead of the Verizon forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-lg-g3/general
If you take the update, you can't re-root and you can't roll back.
Some people have maintained root after updating.
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
