[Q] Blocking an OTA update - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm on the Sprint variant of the LG G2 and I'm looking for a way to turn off any OTA I may receive. Is there a way to do this?

Try freezing software updates with TB or rom toolbox.

[Q] Will Update Block Root?

I have a Verizon G2, if I download that new OTA upgrade, will it prevent me from rooting my phone in the future? I'm not rooted yet and I'm tired of seeing the notification
No. Current update does not block root.

Instead just get twrp and install the owa stock rom

Prevent Verizon OTA

What .apk do I need to freeze?
I've looked around but can't find a straight answer. I can't find the sdm.apk suggested in other threads. I found a SDMPlugin.apk. Is that it?
I'm currently running VS98011A with TWRP 2.6.3.3.
Thanks
Edit: I think its Software update MUC 6.4.1.2_B02-LG
Old post, but since I'd like to know this as well, to prevent any Verizon OTA updates, I'm giving it a bump. I'm on rooted 12B, no TWRP installed.
Need to know on att g2 too

I got rid of LGDMSClient.apk and that stopped it from showing up for me.

Unfortunately the OTA has already been downloaded and I have to keep defer the installation. Is there a way to stop the notification and the installing of the OTA. I'm using the Verizon LG G2
Thanks!
The update notification is getting to be annoying. Anybody find a fix? Or would it be possible to revert back to stock and then update??

So if I were to update from 11A to 12B on my currently un-rooted G2, just to shut it up, does 12B make it harder to root?

Freezing Software update MUC 6.4.1.2_B02-LG using Titanium back up will stop the warning.

I have the same problem, but I cannot find Software udpate MUC 6.4.1.2_B02-LG on my VS980 G2, nor can I find any obvious OTA updater software. I cannot long click on the update notification, and if I try to take the OTA update it errs out as mentioned by others previously (I have only rooted and done the wifi hotspot mod).
Can you tell me where to find that update file, or what exactly to freeze on a VZW G2?

If you have Titanium Backup, scroll through the apps under "Backup/Restore" until you find "Software update MUC 6.4.1.2_B02-LG". Long press and the "Special Features" menu appears. Swipe right to get to the "Backup Properties". Select "Freeze!" That should do it.

Thanks for that, I appreciate the very specific instructions. Out of frustration, I flashed the XDABBEB's VS98024A custom ROM and it is working nicely. So I guess that will solve my need to freeze the OTA update.

I've had my eye on that ROM and have been following the thread but I've been hesitant to install a ROM on my new G2. ROMs always have something that doesn't work right and right now everything is working fine on the G2 (well, except I can't get KitKat but I don't think I want it anyway). But this ROM seems to be one of the more stable out there. Post an update into the XDABBEB thread after a few weeks letting us know what you think of it.

LG D802 not receiving OTA update.

Hey guys i recently bought the international version of the LG G2. I know there is 4.4.2 update here but its not being detected. Its stuck on D80210f.
Can somebody tell me why is that?
THANKS
Try rebooting your phone.I could not get the update either, so I did the same, and it works.

Since kitkat

Ok, Since updating to kitkat the one that brought us the knock code srcurity, I've been having a few problems.
I have a SIM free D802 with 80220B kitkat OTA update and here are some of the problems.
1 battery life is halved
2 stock keyboard lags at times (one of being now as I'm swyping this)
3 quiet mode is intermittent and the set quiet mode timer doesn't work at all now.
4 all my lg apps including system and os have a date of 1970
I've tred factory reset and it's still the same.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Have i had a bad flash? If so how do i reflash the update?
Thanks in advance Andy

Are you sure you have knock code? As the 20b in my case did not have it. The 20d update had knock code.
You can Check for how to get back to stock tutorials and download your latest kdz.
