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.

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.

The last few mornings I've turned on my tv and found my Nexus Player sitting at the recovery screen; finally clued in there must be an update.
So what is the best way to install this small 15mb update? Tried doing it in TWRP, but it failed.
Do I need to re-flash stock recovery and just let it do the work?
Will I lose ROOT access?
I'm pretty keen to get the update, fingers crossed it fixes the Netflix problem.
So I've done more reading and realised I'm going to have to;
- download the factory image,
- install,
- re-root,
- re-flash TWRP
- reinstall Xposed and the modules
- Re-setup if any data is lost
This could become a painful process if Google stick with their promise of monthly patching. Is there a better way?
Are you sure that your Nexus Player's random reboots are being caused by an attempted system update? If your Android device is rooted with a custom recovery, you shouldn't even be prompted for system updates. A couple of months ago, I noticed my Nexus Player randomly going in to recovery mode but this only started happening after I installed the initial x86 version of Xposed for Android 5.1 by romracer. After I updated the device to a newer version of Xposed, I no longer had this random rebooting problem.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61690282&postcount=4
The monthly patches from Google will probably be security-oriented so I don't think it's necessary to update that often on a device like the Nexus Player. I wouldn't bother to go through all those steps just to move from Android 5.1 to 5.1.1 but I don't mind doing whatever's necessary for a major operating system update such as Android 6.0 (Marshmallow).
I did the upgrade yesterday. All sorted.
I only ended up flashing the system.img from the factory image, re-rooted and reinstalling Xposed.
Wasn't as much work as I thought and I didn't lose any data/setting.
This particular minor upgrade seems to have fixed the issue with Netflix deactivating itself; so well worth it in my book. But will only flash minor patches in the future if there is an issue I'm trying to fix like Netflix.
Interesting point about Xposed causing the reboots, I will keep an eye on it. It's only been one night, but it was fine this morning.
They weren't random reboots as such, only happened over night and never while in use. I thought that was normal behaviour for the NP; auto check for update, auto download update, auto install update during night/idle. The issue did seem to line up perfectly with the release of the update.
Thanks for your input!
Found the NP at the recovery screen this morning, booted up and there was an Android update pending.
So I can say for certain that Xposed wasn't causing the reboots. Hasn't reboots itself since I started this thread a month again.
Looks like Google are going to make good on their monthly patching; so I either need to find a smooth way to update, re-root and re-install Xposed or disable the auto-update feature in Android. It could get painful.
Yeah, I too realized that it was not Xposed but rather the Android system updates which were causing my Nexus Player to reboot in to recovery mode. I'm good for now after flashing the Android 5.1.1 LMY48N factory image but I'm not looking forward to doing clean installs every month to handle security updates. You mentioned your quicker update method in post #4 and perhaps that's as quick as it can be under these circumstances. I wonder if a user can disable automatic update attempts on the Nexus Player by sideloading the Disable Service app which is available at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cn.wq.disableservice&hl=en.
Disable Service >> System >> Search >> Google Play Services >> Uncheck SystemUpdateService.
Disable Service >> System >> Search >> Google Services Framework >> Uncheck SystemUpdateService.

Twice now I have only flashed "system.img" from the stock ROM without any issue.
- flash system.img in fastboot
- re-root with SkipSolt
- remove Japanese and Korean language with Titanium Backup (to create enough space for Xposed)
- reinstall Xposed in recovery
I haven't lost any settings/config this way and only takes about 20mins.
I'm actually not super keen on disabling auto updates for security and bug-fix reasons, so it's looks like I'm going to have to live with the monthly flash-reroot-reXposed method for now. I might script it if I get the time.

Nexus 6 OS version 6.0.1: This method does not work!
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.
i uninstalled magisk completely,
unrooted
flashed stock boot.img
relock the bootloader
but OTA giving error of "installation problem"
what to do???
Well you always have the option of flashing oreo image.
I dont know any othet way.
Still didn't got January update.

I am aware of that. But i rely heavily on notifications from my apps.
Waiting for rollout to reach me.
Thanks.

Man, no offense, but do some reading. People are telling everywhere we have to wait for the next stable build from Xiaomi. The first stable build was buggy, and that is why is stopped.
Be patient, probably we will get update by the end of January, for those who already did update to Oreo, they got January security patch to fix some bugs. For now, it is better to stay on Nougat.
Watch this video to learn how you can flash the stocks ROM in order to install the OTA update , this method is also help you to overcome from the Bootloop https://youtu.be/sbkZoYs0LP0
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.
