What I did is let it download and reboot into custom recovery and then stopped the flash. Told TWRP to cancel the flash, then rebooted the system and got rid of the update. Then went into /cache and deleted the update file. Never been prompted again.
Usually you can let it try to install and fail to get rid of any nagging. Say if you make a backup of S-Health app and uninstall/freeze it and maybe some other stock system apps the update will fail anyways since it can't update those.

Thanks.

Double check the OP for the resolution I used that was successful, way easier.

Weird - the only thing I had done to mine was root with Vipermod - update installed fine, broke root, voodoo root keeper restored root without issue....
I didn't really have any of the issues that most people had - tho the screen tearing on the recent app list now appears to be gone....
I have the dlpkg if anyone wants it, i just have to transfer it to my PC. Looks like the kernel update, is only 11MB so it might upload here if I pack it in a zip..
Looking at it, there is a blob file almost certainly a new kernel, some system patches, lib patches, the updater script is tremendous.. and almost all if not all system apps get a patch too.
Nope, even though it is 11.54MB, and the forum claims that 11.81MB is the max, it won't let me upload it..I guess if you want it PM your email I can send it over..
Scratch my previous - the screen tearing issue on the recent apps list still exists past six or seven recent apps...
Got the notification too.I m rooted though so i wont proceed with the update procedure unless someones makes a flashable zip!
Reported for dubble posting. Use searching next time please.
I got mine around 10 am. But what I was doing when I got it was a wipe. After the wipe was when it told me I had an update. So far seems pretty good. Of course that's been said many times only to have to eat them. Time will tell.

Nice, please download the update and pull the .zip before rebooting to install it:
Code:
adb pull /cache/dlpkgfile.zip
then you can delete it:
Code:
adb shell rm /cache/dlpkgfile.zip

Thanks man!
No work for me.
I am using ICS - Rooted
Downloaded the Updated (through OTA) and then it prompts to reboot and install and..Fails.
It is prolly because I Modified the system (Removed bloat and changed a few things. Lol.
I may re install it as stock rooted and try again.
I have no Issues, so I may not. Hmmmm

Yes, the updater script does a fair bit of assessing of your system..including all your bloatware that I can tell..because all of that is patched.

Stuck at bootscreen

Okay, I am new to the rooting and modifying android devices.. I rooted my Nexus 7 using supersu and was making modifications with ROM toolbox pro. I changed the boot screen, the font, and the wireless icon(starting out small) well when I restarted my tablet it wouldn't get past the lboot screen that I set to.
When I went into recovery mode, I tried to recovery my old system but it giving me md5 missing.. so I'm kinda of stuck
is there a direct approach to the solution?
Nice tip. Only use stuff like mods tha are on xda. Use metamorph to impalement theming stuff or flashable zips. Regaurds your situation ty flashing the rom again. Wipe data factory reset. If all else fails flash the google factory image and learn from your mistakes you made. Most problems you get in the future are pretty easily fixed with a bit of patience

Move your android folder to the C: Drives root folder and try directing the command prompt from there.
Type :-
cd c:\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools
adb

if you haven't "Patched the app" with any tool theres no need to remove odex files.
only time i use "patch app is to remove ads because i really think ads are worst thing that can be in a app"
but make sure you delete something on your sdcard (not necessary file) sometimes it can be to little storage dependin on the app requirements

is that specific app you wanted to install patched (from an earlier version) if so go to /data/app/ and look for the app and it will most likely have a .odex file in it,
since i hope this isn't for "piracy" i'm helping you.

and by in it i mean
/data/app/com.yourapphere.apk
/data/app/com.yourapphere.odex
Hope that helps to solve your problem
Working
BTW why does /system/app/ have odex files? And whats the difference between odex and apk files?
Sorry I'm still kind of a noob :E

system/app/ has odex files in it because its standard in stock firmwares released by samsung
the difference is that all necesarry data lies in .odex files (in system/app/)
but it can be Deodexed but it will be slightly slower (not much) but as it needs to read the data inside the apk instead of odex file
dont delete any odex file in system app as it will cause the app to crash

[Q] QuickRemote Problem.

Cache and Data Cleaning DONT HELP
There was a report from a member with the exact same issue as you have, however, he said he did root and also delete one of the corresponding file, that was his problem, and soon after he move that file back into the system, QR worked as normal. Your case is kind of strange since you haven't rooted it yet.
My suggestion is factory reset.
Remember, you will lose everything, so backup first.

Done a LG Backup , transfered to my sister N4 and after factory reset made a reset of backup It seems that it worked Thanks you.
Was QuicksetSDK frozen or removed? Quick Remote needs that file to work properly.

Unable to create new folders or save anything to the internal memory

So ill try to put all the other information that's important here.
I tried flashing the Stock rom back to this phone through TWRP and I feel like I've flashed it about 8 times now. It comes up normally and I can go through the setup wizard and when I hit the home screen I tired getting Adaway. When I tried to download the apk to my phone and I try to choose a save location it keeps saying that I can't find a save location. Then I tried opening up the file manager and tried creating a new folder it says that the operation cant be performed. I have plenty of storage available on my 6T and I cant see what I'm doing wrong. I've flashed and reflashed both TWPR and the Stock ROM both Beta and official and I still run into the same issue. Is anyone able to lend a hand? Thank you in advance!
Edit: Fixed it!
I get this anytime I try to download anything to my PHONE. SD card not found

Actually my data was encrypted but accessible through twrp. I did format data, couldn't boot system, but then I wiped data and it worked.
Thanks
