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.

Hey guys,
I downloaded the "light flow" and "illumination bar notifications" apps from the google play store but I am unable to enable them. Once I open the apps, a screen pops up and informs me that for all notifications to work I must first enable Accessibility for this app. However, once I go to settings>accessibility, the app is not there. Does anyone know how how to fix this? Thanks

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.
Some random Google Services app ate all my data. However it doesn't show what app used the data. Is there a way to check?

I think he meant mobile data...
My guess would be to check if your Google account is syncing pictures
How about settings>data usage?

To to settings, scroll down, under "accounts"
Select Google, tap your Google account on top to see what is being synced. You can enable/disable sync for individual items there.

Ok I disabled some syncing stuff for her. Checked Google Services and it says 196MB was used for Background... "View app settings" is greyed out though.
same issue
Hey,
I'm having the same issue, first my phone and service:
Tmobile
Nexus 4 w/ Paranoid Android 3.6 with Franco Kernel 3.4.0
LTE Enabled / LTE Tethering enabled on Firewall
Ok, so within 3 days my phone used 1.62 GB of data that the data usage area in settings attributes to Google Services. I haven't installed any new apps or made any changes.
According to Android, Google Services includes:
Google Contacts Sync
Google Account Manager
Network Location
Google Play Services
Google Services Framework
Google Bookmarks Sync
The only culprits I can think it might be are either Account Manager or Network Location. I turned off Location Access and I'm trying to limit anything syncing on my google accounts. But that hasn't changed over the whole month, I don't know why it would now. I'll keep looking and report back what I find. I downloaded android firewall and i'm downloading My data manager too, to try to obtain more metrics. any help would be appreciated.
Just today, I lost 575MB of data, again to Google Services. It was all background data. Have most of my syncing stuff disabled.
It's trying to pull the 4.3 update, and since your not on stock, it'll fail over and over. After a lot of searching, I found what seems to have fixed it. Get the app Autorun Manager, select advanced mode, go to settings and enable show system entries and enable system app disable. Then scroll down to Google Services Framework. Find and uncheck com.Google.android.gsf.update.systemupdateservices$secretcodereceiver. What a mouthful, but that should end your data drain troubles.

I have 1.15GB for removed apps WTF is that I removed my apps not through the internet. This makes no sense.

Network Location is the one. Ate around 300mb yesterday so I just completely disabled that ****. One other thing that was mentioned above was, android 4.3 update. I got a message in notifcations that 4.3 is ready to install lol.. I didn't even download it... it downloads automatically. wtf google.

Hi. I tried this. Initially it stopped. But after a few hours it started again. This time my network log app was showing upload too. And the same download manager, drm protected storage and media storage were showing data transfer. What to do? I'm on aokp milestone 2 with franco kernel milestone 3
Tried the Autorun Manager fix
Google Services used up 1.2GB mobile data on my phone in a matter of hours yesterday. I've tried the fix, hope it stops. I've disabled Mobile Data as a failsafe. I also noticed that Google Services' usage on WiFi was 7.5GB in 20 days. Is this normal?
Using the last CM10.1 nightly.

Did you check again using the same app?
I'm having the same problem! I already tried reflashing my rom, and the problem always comes back!
I tried disabling com.Google.android.gsf.update.systemupdateservices $secretcodereceiver Autorun Manager (free version) and the problem still happens.
Any solution?
EDIT:
Installing FOTAKILL, seems to have fixed it *crosses fingers*
Yes I did. It stopped for a while for me too but then started again. And same here. Transferred many GB on WiFi. Now I went back to stock, updated OTA to 4.3 and rooted again. Staying on rooted stock till the 4.3 based releases of AOKP and all come out

So, if I update to CM10.2 (4.3), it should solve this too, right?
Hi guys, I downgraded google maps to the last non sucky version.
However, in Google Play there is no option to to un-check "automatic updates"
I need the rest of my apps to update automatically as i alpha/beta test other apps.
Anyone know a way to manually exclude a certain app from updating?
thanks!

If you're rooted and have titanium, you can break the market link with titanium backup.
Just selecting "Update over Wifi only" solved most of my auto-update troubles.

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?

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