Hello,
I just noticed 1 hour ago I have 4.3 OTA update for my Nexus 10. However the update has been failed, due to vfxsound mod as far as I understand. I deactivated this app but I cant see OTA update again if I check the system updates manually it states that your system is current(4.2.2). What can I do to have this system update notification again?
My configuration:
rooted (supersu)
CWM recovery
Thank you.
Same here!

I can't update to 4.3 because of the same reason.
In my case, I installed both vfx and vhifi.
I deactivated and turned both of them into safe mode and tried to flash the update with stock recovery.
However, I still got "assert failed: apply_patch_check system/vendor/etc/audio_effects.conf"
There is a way to get the OTA update back, but I repeatedly failed, and ended up with error.
Someone please help us!
This happens because those files have been modified and are no longer the originals. Extract the files it is having issues with from the 4.2.2 factory image, replace them and try again, or just flash system.img from the factory 4.2.2 image and run the OTA again.
Edit: Also, to get the OTA notification again, go to Settings>Apps>All and force stop "Google Services Framework" then "Clear Data". Immediately return to the "About" screen and check for a system update. If any popups come up regarding allowing location services, choose "No" or otherwise don't allow it.
While the system update downloads, remove your google account, and re-add it to avoid any issues with sync, etc. on your google account. Keep in mind if you use 2-factor authentication via google, you'll need to add a new application password for your tablet.
I succesfully upgraded the system. As you said I replaced these file with the original ones. Now It works fine. The only problem is mx player doesnt work. I think they will update it soon.

Did you mean, "phone"? I can only speak for how this behaves on the Nexus 10. Also, if you enable location services (sometimes it tries when the google services framework starts back up) and you allow it, the OTA doesn't seem to show up (at least not for me, perhaps it's region-based?).
I had to redo mine several times while I replaced system files that had been modified, so I know it works if it's done the way I described. 60% of the time, it worked every time.
Also, try removing your custom recovery. I don't know how this affects things for the OTA but it's a factor I didn't have to contend with.
I'm pretty sure he meant tablet. I'm having the exact same problem on my N10.

I am on stock rooted MK2 with TWRP recovery installed. I woke up this morning to see that my phone had automatically downloaded the new system sfotware(i assume 4.4.2). The notification cant be removed from the notification bar and just says click to install. i dont want 4.4.2. My wife updated her s4 and it caused all sorts of minor issues with it. She was not rooted however. How can I get rid of the downloaded update and the notification? Also, is there a setting I can change so it wont try to automatically download updates in the future?
thanks

Im sure I will be needing the same information as I am still on 4.3 and want to stay here also, I can tell you I had the same thing with my Galaxy S2 and I remember I had to do something in Titanium backup to stop the update process, but I cant remember the exact steps.
I will be watching this thread closely, Thanks for asking the question!
Search fellas. On the notification . press and hold it. Then you should get a popup of "app info" select it and uncheck "show notification". This will get rid of the annoying update notifications. You can also delete the file from system although I am forgetting right now where.

Did that and deleted the file! It downloads it back and the notifications resurrects again.
I froze Configupdater, Sprint Installer, System Update
Disabled System Update on start up.
Dunno what else can stop this OTA notification!!
For me it's even more dangerous because I have the 720T running sacs for 720, hence the update that the system is trying to intsall is the NAE not NAF.
To be on safe side I'm thinking unroot and get to stock MK5 then upgrade to NAF then flash sacs again. This way the update notification will go away. Tedious but thats the only way I think I can get rid of this annoying notification.
Any thoughts?? Keep in mind I'm on 720T

interesting... I had recently ODIN'd back to stock and saferoot'd before calling it a day and woke up in the morning to an update. I also know that the update only downloads if you're on wi-fi. I know before I ODIN'd I was already saferoot'd with a whole bunch of crapware "frozen" by TiBackup and I never got the update. not exactly sure which crapware I froze, but I did it again this time around and I still haven't seen an update message for the past week. below is a list of what I froze... if you have the time to weed out the exact crapware needed to disable the update, please let me know! would be nice to uninstall the crapware that wont affect the update from happening while cleaning up the rest of the crapware.

looks like the inevitable just happened... with all the above items turned off/frozen, I still got the OTA download last night! I'm rooted with the hotspot mod and despite all of that, the OTA still came through. the update is located in /cache.

Indeed! I gave up on OTA block. The only way I can think of if you stop all framework notifications, but I dont want to do that. Got to NAF and CF rooted. Waiting for stable KK before trying it on 720T. I don't care for sparks.
As of last night I hadn't received the OTA update yet, so I decided to try to fend it off buy freezing the system update in titanium backup... I swear I'm at 10 minutes went by and I can I receive the OTA notification! So now it looks like I'm in the same boat right next to you...lol
As I said earlier back in my S2 days I remember having to freeze the "System Update" with Titanium, but I think I also remember having to boot into recovery and Wipe a cache or something, because something is placed in the cache that looks to see if the update was downloaded and installed, and if not just keeps downloading until it is. So the steps that I do remember are;
1) Freeze system update with titanium.
2) Delete downloaded system files (I'm not sure where they are located, so please help me out with this one)
3) Boot into recovery and wipe a cache or two (I can't recall if it was one or more then one, and/or which one) so maybe someone could help with that?
I am going to do some searching for the S2 instructions to see if I can find them, maybe they will help with this.... Not sure if the update process is still the same though.

as I stated in my last post, the downloaded update file is located in /cache. for the time being I've deleted that file and created a zero-byte file with the same name and its permissions set to read only. not sure what's going to happen if I try to update with an empty file or if I reboot, but I have it this way to hopefukky assure me that if I accidentally press update that it won't update successfully. I doubt cleaning up the OTA downloads will prevent it from downloading again unless you can somehow fake your version number.

Doesn't sound like a bad idea! But I can't believe there isn't a fix for this out there though. In my research I found a file for the S2 called fota-killer, you would think something like that wild be available for the S4.

OK I tried the fotakill.apk method and so far I have not received the notification like I was eveytime I rebooted earlier go to here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30205683&postcount=1 for the instructions I used and a link to the file.... I used the manual method rather then installing the zip thru recovery because they said the zip method is device specific..... I'll stop back in a couple days to update how it's working or b4 that if it doesn't!

Another update!
http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Softw...mware-update-for-the-Xperia-Z3-and/m-p/980932
Ensured the lock screen / notification bar doesn’t indicate “no service” when the device has coverage
Added a Sony feature; bringing back the "close-all-button" in the activity menu, so you can easily close all apps at once
Unblocked devices with server policies (such as Exchange Active Sync for e-mail), to enable the new Lollipop lock-screen notifications
Ensured the LED light is lit across all sound modes - and no longer offset by “silent”
Made the necessary fixes to enable the easy movement of content from internal memory to external microSD card (something we saw affecting a few devices)
Improved messaging functionality in Ultra stamina mode – some conversations could not be opened before in Ultra stamina mode
Finally a fix for the lockscreen notifications not showing if syncing Exchange with locking code policy!
Already flashed a rooted zip and running flawlessly with Xposed and everyhing
The notifications should have been fixed in 23.1.A.0.726 though, but I never got around to try it(it never appeard in OTA either).
Quick question, if I update using OTA will I loose root and recovery?

No you wont lose root or recovery if you OTA update just make sure you've not deleted any of the pre-installed apps other wise the OTA will fail to install.

Hey, I have the same thing.
I'm rooted and just checked, that I have uninstalled the "small apps" components. Do I need to install them to get rid of this annoying notification or other steps could be taken?
Edit:
I managed to close it with titanium, just hit "backup" on update center. However, before that I changed the setting 'don't update automatically'.
Cheers.

Where did you get the flashable zip? Can you point me to it? I've done all kinds of tweaks like removing system apps, so I can't use the official updater.

Can you provide the zip
Omnikai has already posted a link to one..
Can I just flash that over what I'm currently using? do I need to wipe anything?! I don't want to lose my application data
I flashed the zip I made myself without loosing anything, just wiped dalvik/cache.
Can you possibly upload the one you made??!
It's a Norwegian/Telenor specific rom, I guess you'd rather have the Nordic Generic from that link
And I don't have the zip available here, and no places to uploads.. Sorry.

Hi I was wondering if anyone could tell me why my Nexus player ends up in recovery mode in the mornings im stocked rooted and unlocked with twrp I have to reboot my Nexus player each morning unless it's trying to update.
The same thing use to happen to me. The stock rom tries to do an update, then reboots, but you are rooted/unlocked, so it fails and just sits there in recovery. Most custom roms take the update feature out, but on stock it still exists, and I think there is a way to turn off checking for updates or something similar so it will not happen again.

Try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62865084&postcount=6
You can disable system updates if your device is rooted. In order to do this, download My Android Tools (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cn.wq.myandroidtools) and sideload the APK on to your Nexus Player. After it's installed on your device, load the app, access its menu and go to System >> Search >> Google Play Services >> Uncheck SystemUpdateService. This will disable system updates but still allow your apps to update.
I have the Verizon variant V20 and rooted with Dirty Santa last night. I have gone into developer options and turned off automatic system updates, but it still downloaded an update today and asked to apply it. I hit the later option and delayed it until tomorrow. How do I delete that update file and prevent it from trying again in the future? I have TiBu installed, so hoping there is something I can freeze to prevent it.
Search for "system update" in titanium backup and freeze the two apps you see.
I don't know about deleting the downloaded update though... Browse through and find it?
I just froze the two system updates and also FOTA Update 7.0. Thanks for the help!
Anyone know the file names for the tmobile variant?
If anyone had an issue freezing these apps with TB just open up your dialer interface and type in 277634#*#
This will bring up a hidden menu and then select Wi-Fi test and then select OTA then select disable. After that you will have to kill the hidden menu and you shouldn't be seeing the annoying OTA icon in your status bar anymore.
Had this problem on AT&T H910 it's an easy fixer.
1. boot into TWRP go to wipe and clear cache and Dalvic and reboot
This rids you of the annoying wanna update msg and gives you time to fix it
2. Go to playstore and install DisableService
3. Open and find Software Update open it and disable everything reboot and your good 2 go....
4. Just in case... Go to Developer options and see if you have a checkbox for Automatic System Updates and turn it off ( after using step 3 it most likely is but turn it off anyway)
Just curious, can't u just go to Developer Settings and turn off "Automatic System Updates" ?
TBPro pulls "FOTA Update 7.0" and "System updates 1_16_02_0"
I've frozen both of them and assume that will do the trick for the popups. But would wiping their data remove the updates that they already downloaded (not installed)? Also, would deleting these apps cause any issue with the device? Just curious...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72463487&postcount=4237
On Tmo H918. The above link has a pic that shows the screen mentioned below.
Here's how I got rid of a previous update:
Rename otacerts.zip in /system/etc/security to otacerts.bak.
The full update is found in the cache partition called update.zip. Move the update.zip file from /cache directory (I put it on the sd card).
The next time you get the notification, selected to install it. See the attached. It said rebooting. It won't reboot because the necessary file is gone. Wait 10 seconds and touch the recents key and close the window. Done!
I rebooted the phone and no nag.
Would just like to point out if you click on system updates it will still download, but it won't install you'll have to delete the update zip again, but you shouldn't get any notifications.

Does anyone else find a different wording of this "System updates 1_16_02_0" ? Am I the only person who's TiB shows it to be called "Software updates 1.16.02? I figure that this "Software updates" is what everyone is talking about because it has the same version build numbers with the exception of not having the trailing 0 at the end. It seems highly unlikely that there would be a coincidence where two different programs would have the same version build numbers.
I have had to restore my rooted factory ROM several times after I have tried to remove some factory installed things which apparently were too deeply tied into android to be safely removed. My nandroid backup which I often restore to is pretty much untouched with the exception of SU and TiB being installed. So I've had the luxury of dealing with this multiple times now. I just want to know if people are seeing a different program called "System updates" than I am seeing it as being called "Software Update."

I have a strange problem. I can't update my phone. It shows me a popup every other day that I am 90+ days behind the latest security update, but then I click on update now, and nothing happens. It then shows me a notification "Couldn't install update / Tap to learn more" when I do that, nothing happens.
I downloaded the Oxygen Updater app and downloaded the update, but when I try to go into the manual update, that also doesn't work. It shows up to date, and when I click on it, nothing happens. I took some screenshots. I already restarted it several times, but that also didn't work. The device is rooted I have Magisk 38ab6858 (25203)
Any ideas on how to fix that?
Thanks!
Since you are rooted you have to do full updates. Can't do incremental ones. Go to the settings in oxygen updater to switch from incremental to full. If I'm not mistaken, there should be instructions in that app how to do the local upgrade, but there should be an option in the system update menu to do the local upgrade.
Worst case, it sits a few security patches behind. Not a huge deal, but annoying.
Hope this helps.
Also, if you are able to update this way, don't forget to go to the magisk app to flash after the ota BEFORE you reboot, but AFTER the update installs.
Thanks but I can't even open the update menu. When I check the disabled apps the "Software update" app is there disabled and no matter what I do I can't get it enabled. I tried to delete the cache and files but still. Any other idea?

I don't have any work arounds for that sort of scenario. A factory reset would fix it, or perhaps sideloading the update file? I haven't messed around too much on stock so I'm not sure if that would be an option.

Doesn't OOS 12 require this special updater app? At least that's what's been shared on the Telegram group and it seems to work - I'm still on OOS 11 so I can't test or confirm.
That's the text that comes with the apk: "OnePlus removed the local update option in System Update in OOS12. They later released this APK to restore the functionality"
Can't hurt to try I guess?
You need to activate developer options
After this there is the local update option available under the "up to date" menu if you press the settings or tree dots in the upper right corner.
I cant be more exact because i dont own a op8pro anymore.
