OTA Update Failed

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.

How to disable Moto G5 Plus Update Notification?

Keep getting the update pops up and I dont want to update. Is there a way to disable the update itself?
I tried App Settings > System Apps > Moto Update Services, Force stopped but there isnt Freeze or disable Options like my S8. Any ideas?
Thanks!

I froze it in Titanium Backup. That is if you're rooted of course.

Why don't you just update what's the point in not updating when there is an update.

This is under the developer options. It bugged me too.

I'd have a street party if mine said there was an update, i think it is a myth and no updates actually exist.

What option stops the notification? Disabling automatic system updates will still prompt you occasionally to update if there is an update pending.
Using Titanium Backup, I assume freezing Motorola Update Services should be the only app required, correct?

If I wanted an opinion on whether or not I should perform the update, I would have referred to the "should I perform the update" thread - not the "How to disable the G5 plus update notification".
Seems like a very simple thing to understand, no?

Here is the real answer:
adb shell
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.motorola.ccc.ota

Ok, but more clarification please.

Got a new Moto G5 plus (unlocked) with 7.0. Spouse accidentally downloaded update BUT caught the error before installing the update, and did not install. The file is apparently on the phone and now badgers us constantly to install. I want to halt the automatic update process and remove the downloaded update file. I have disabled automatic updates under the 'Developer Options' as you say, but the notice continues, even after reboot. I suspect it is because the update is now resident on the phone and triggers the process, even though it has been switched off under developer options. This phone has not been rooted. I guess the fix will require rooting, but I'm apprehensive about what method is the most current and reliable, specifically for this phone. Any help on how to proceed would be greatly appreciated. Til then, a billion annoyances.

Same issue here - and the update notification is extremely aggressive. It will interrupt anything I'm doing, including videos/music on YouTube.
I vaguely recall reading somewhere that we need to flash a stock recovery and boot.img temporarily, but I don't know if that's accurate. I'm wondering if I should just wipe it and install Unofficial LineageOS.
For clarity, at least in my case:
Phone is rooted
TWRP Recovery
Custom boot.img
Stock ROM
EDIT: I'm trying NeoGeo's advice and freezing Motorola Update Services using Titanium Backup.

How to disable OTA updates on Sprint LS997 without root?

I have a LS997 running the ZV7 software. For now I don't want to update to ZV8 or newer, so I want to block OTA updates. I have read through the other threads I could find about disabling OTA updates, but couldn't find an answer for the LS997 without root.
Here's what I have done so far:
- Use a package disabler to disable FOTA Update (com.lge.lgfota.permission)
- Disable automatic system updates in the developer options
So far this has been sufficient to prevent the ZV8 update from automatically downloading or installing, but I'm still getting an update notification as shown in the attached image.
That notification is coming from Google Play Services. The only way I have found to make it go away is to disable notifications from Google Play Services. I'm not entirely comfortable doing that though, since I don't know what other notifications I'm disabling.
This discussion lists some of the notifications that come from Google Play Services. I can live with losing those ones, but I'm a little worried that there might be something else more important.

Does anyone know of a better way to disable OTA updates and notifications? Thanks in advance.

How to remove a pending Pie OTA update

Hi there, i searched all over the net, but all i found were older ways to do it.
Anyway, I am on 8.1 and I have a pending Pie update bugging me (restart now to update), I do not want to do it until the camera issues with gcam are completely resolved.
I have unchecked the "automatic system updates" in developer options, but the update was downloaded before that, so it keeps nagging me to update. I am afraid that if my phone reboots / runs out of battery ill end up with Pie (happened to my gf and brother). Camera means more than pie to me
I am unrooted. Tried searching internal storage for anything mentioning OTA but to no success. Can anyone help me find/delete these downloaded temp files?
Thanks,
jaka

Since we have an A/B partition device, maybe the update have already been applied. You can try to disable update app through adb using a computer, but I guess if you reboot, your device will be updated.

Can't update or do manual updates

Hi,
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.
