It was actually Google play services I had to block notifications from, there is no system update in Apps>System update

I'm in the same situation but how do we actually install the 8mb update? Is there a flashable zip?
Also, are you sure you want to block all Google play services notifications?

Long press the notification. Press the "circle i" that pops up. Then Block All. Done.

The only reason I don't want to update is because I'm rooted and google play services notifications aren't important. So I blocked em all

Samsung app updates

I think S Voice just updated to 11.4.0.2 but can find anywhere I can see for sure it did. I also cant find anywhere that has S Voice changelog. Anyone know if an update did come out and what was updated?
Also, I disabled a few installed apps like S Health but the samsung apps keeps updating and enabling. Does this mean its no use just disabling the apps?
S Voice is on 11.4.0.2 but it hasn't received an update for a little while now. That is the latest version though.
As for freezing/disabling apps, yes, when an update appears, you get a prompt to download. You have two choices:
1/ Download, install then disable again (until another update comes along and repeat the process)
2/ Uninstall the app via root and don't worry about it again.

Disable Software Update

Every 15-20 minutes, a popup message comes up with telling me there is a software update available. I have already rooted my phone, and attempting to install the update just fails, but the popup continues to come up even when it fails. Is there a package I can disable/freeze or somewhere I can go to get this annoying thing to go away? It's got a notification that appears with a little syncing icon in the bottom corner in the notification bar, so I figure there is something somewhere I can disable, but not sure where to look...
Use a root file explorer to delete this folder system/priv-app/wssyncmldm or you can freeze it.

Removed the folder and reset the phone; notification still came up in the notification bar. Popup also still comes up on the screen.
Got rid of it for me, I also removed the 2 other folders below it. The other wss.... folders. Hope that helps. Edit: forgot I was in the VZW forum, I have att maybe there is another app for updates. Sorry
Try to freeze "SDM", that should do the trick. If it doesn't clear it, then clear the cache for SDM and then freeze it.

Searched for a package named SDM, couldn't find it; same thing searching for an app named SDM in the Application Manager. Is there another name for it? Because I searched also for something with the name of "Samsung D... M..." and couldn't find anything with that name...

I'm sorry, it's both of these I believe
System updates (com.samsung.sdm)
System updates (com.samsung.sdmviewer)
Right on the nose. Disabled and haven't seen the messages/notifications since.

Make sure you disable securitylogagent also.
I disabled these two with package disabler pro.
System updates (com.samsung.sdmviewer)
securitylogagent
I don't see this package:
System updates (com.samsung.sdm)
I am still getting the annoying notifications. Search has not revealed any other solutions.

Try to disable diagmonagent in package disabler it should do the trick.
This did not work for me.
I enabled all the packages. I then force stopped, cleared cache, and memory in application manager. I then disabled all three again and restarted.
The next day the popup returned.
In Titanium backup, simply open up both system update packages, freeze them then long press them each till you can select "open system details"
Once you open system details force stop and select notifications
set all notifications to off.
Once completed you can go into settings/ and select System updates, it should FC
Hope this helps.

Doesn't Titanium backup require root?

Yes. Maybe you can disable the same apps going to settings/application manager/ more -system apps/ system updates
As i have located them.
I think this is the fix! I have not received any update notifications since.
More comprehensive instructions?
G935V non-rooted (came from rooted) and I cannot get rid of the OTA notifications. I found and disabled securitylogagent and com.samsung.sdm.sdmviewer but cannot find com.samsung.sdm Still get the notification, can disable temporarily by clearing cache of system updates through system app manager, but they return later. Did someone figure out how to disable update notifications, as they do annoy me! Thank you!
Go to Application Manager for Samsung Galaxy S5 SM G-900V and "Turn Off"
1. System Updates (about 1.6mb or more in size)
2. System Updates (about 156 kb in size , rIght below it)

Delete firmware update notification (B161Full)

Hey guys,
I have a rooted phone with twrp and xposed. The problem is that I become since today notifications that a firmware update is available. I dont want to go through the rooting process again (since I am waiting for CM13 anyway). So how can I delete the notification? It is quite annoying. Thanks to all.
Long press on the notifications should take you to the notification center, then you disable every thing

I don't mean a notification in the status bar. I mean that the update menu opens several times a day (see picture). How can I disable it?

Look for the updater app in the app menu delete data, force close it and block it from accessing network both on WiFi and Mobile Data; that should do it

I already did this, but no root. I keep receiving the same pop page Updater.
And if I block the app Updater to acess Cell Phone and Storage I get the warning to enable Storage for Updater, it needs IMEI and IMSI to be able to update EVERYTIME I connect to a Wifi. Dont know what's worst.
Anyone knows how to block all of this?
Uninstall the updater using adb, I will write how to do it in the: https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/how-to/unified-help-thread-huawei-p9-lite-t3649152
Number 8, Tweaks and modifications

Does it needs ROOT? I'm looking for some way to fix this without root.

It doesn't need root, just do the command using your pc... please read before asking.

Oh lord, I thought I was the only one having this stupid warning every time it switches on WIFI or back from plane mode.
What's the exact command to delete the update then? I saw the Tweak topic but it doesn't mention what to type as the package name to remove the update. I would say "updater", as simple as that ? But I won't do it unless I'm sure I'm not messing my smartphone.
Thanks

Hi
I found the update file on Archives, in a folder called HwUOC or something like this
thats what I did: deleted this folder then blocked all permissions on app updater
note this will only delete the downloaded file, but the warning keeps popping

ASUS is shoving the update down my throat. Please help

Model: ZE552KL
Firmware: 20160803
I have asked this on ASUS forum and of course none of the ASUS employees lurking those forums would not answer.
I have set the "Auto-download system update" to "Do not auto-download system update".
My phone now automatically starts downloading the system update everytime I'm connected to Wi-Fi. I go to FOTAService and force stop it, I delete the storage "clear data" or clear cache.
All this only helps until it connects again to Wi-Fi, then the update starts again.
Can someone come with a solution please? I want to keep the current firmware.
Unlock your bootloader? Lol
How about disable the update app via something like titanium backup, but I think that feature is only in the paid version. I guess you could always delete the update APK? Make a backup first of course
Where is the folder where the update is kept? I connected to computer and made sure all hidden files were unchecked in windows but couldn't find any such folder.
Try the app "disable service " on the play store. Select "system" and then "Google services framework" and then un-tick "SystemUpdateService" and reboot.
I have the latest stock Android M firmware and couldn't disable FOTA Service (can't press the Disable button under Apps). Are there ways to disable FOTA Service without root access?
The notification pops-up every time I connect to WiFi. I guess I just have to find the proper App/Service to disable Wifi/Cellular data access instead.
Question is, which App/Service can have WiFi/Cellular data access to shut off safely?
While I still can't find ways to disable the notification, which seems to pop-up on every IP address change or reconnect to wifi after inactivity, by wasting 1.5GB downloading the firmware, I can snooze the alert for up to 1 day.

Cannot download December update

Hey guys,
I have a problem, my device wont download December update.
I tried both wifi and cellular but still cannot download it
It shows an error "Couldn't download"
What should I do?
Which december update? The one on the 7th, or the one dated the 19th?
If it's the 7th, you can try to use miflash to flash the whole Dec 7th rom (keep user data).
Then you can try to update to the other one from the 19th.
As to why you are receiving those messages, i'm not sure. I never received any messages about not being able to download.
if you face couldn't download error you should uninstall google play services updates but for doing that you should disable find my device in security-->device administrators first.and using a vpn i think would be necessary.after update you can enable find my device again and update google play services

Thanks! after trying all the solutions I found on internet, this one worked for me,
I'm from Iran, and I think this can be related to the update failure, because when I use vpn, I can download now, but without using a vpn, I still can't download it.
