Now that we have root, how do we stop the OTA Updates. I looked through Titanium Backup to try to freeze SDM.apk but the file does not seem to exist. Any help?
I just froze both update apps and I no longer get OTA update notifications. Go to titanium backup and search update, you should see 2 green update apps, freeze those. Hope this helps.

Thanks, I froze those apps, now time will tell.
Google how to change your fingerprint in "build.prop"
I went back to 4.4.2 on my Nexus 5 and was getting the notification all the time till I edited my build.prop from 4.4.2 to 4.4.3 and haven't had a notification since
: edit
Just picked up my Tab S 8.4 today and after rooting I wasn't fast enough to catch the OTA download but after editing my build.prop the notification was still up after a reboot so with confidence I hit install and a pop up stated that "modifications have been found" and it couldn't perform the OTA .
Am happy [emoji12]
Yes I'm aware that root alone is a modification that could prevent the OTA [emoji33]

Yeah, I still have this software update notification looming over me that isn't going away. Ìm rooted - is there a preferred method of knocking out these software updates/notifications (either the Titanium Backup or build.prop edit above)? When I search "update" in Titanium, I get both the software update results mentioned above, along with Secure Policy Updates. Disable all 3? Forget it and edit build.prop? Does it even matter which? thx

I went ahead and froze both software updates in TB - seems to have stopped the notifications. I'm still interested in knowing if there's a general method most people follow tho - I've been putting off doing the same thing on my S5... thx

I'll say it again "EDIT THE BUILD.PROP"
I don't use titanium backup and edited the build.prop .before I edited the build.prop the update had already downloaded and that notification wouldn't go away till I accepted it ,once you accept it after editing the build.prop a prompt pops up stating that your device has been nodded and the install is declined.
NO MORE NOTIFICATIONS FOR OTA [emoji12]

Can anyone post the .apk? I can't even download it...
Hi Guys!
I have a Galaxy Note but hopefully it might work with the Nexus. I uninstalled superuser.apk and bingo! Pingit works fine. You will have to keep uninstalling it everytime you wanna run Pingit though! Hiding the app or renaming the apk file wasn't enough.
Uninstalling superuser apk is enough on its own, no need to hide root with Voodoo OTA RootKeeper.
Hope it helps!! Good luck!
EDIT: After setting up Pingit, running it with superuser installed will produce an error. Worse still it seems to reset Pingit's settings so after you uninstall superuser you would have to go through Pingit setup again. To avoid this, NEVER run Pingit with superuser installed! Good luck again!

Thanks for the suggestion, but I have tried that.
I'm startihng to think it does something else besides simply looking for the superuser app and binaries, as everything I have done to get rid of these still brings up the root error.
I am getting ready to root my SGS3, and so I went to update the latest PRL and stuff before doing it. When in the system update section, there is no longer an option (that I could find) to turn off Sprint pushed updates. I don't want to lose root or have to re-root every time Sprint pushes out an update.
Does anyone know how to turn it off? Am I just missing something really obvious? On Gingerbread, there was a select box for "allow automatic updating", but I don't see anything like that on ICS 4.0.4. (at least, not the Sprint ROM).
A little help?
You should be fine. On my epic touch, you would get an update notification and then you would have to accept or deny it.

This works for me, I kept disabling things till I found it and narrowed it down:
1. Install "system tuner" by 3c

4. UNCHECK anything to do with "SystemUpdateService"

I changed my mind, my advice causes problems. Although this stops the update notification, it seems to keep the phone from sleeping once you get a notification. So your battery will be OK for a week or so.. and then all of a sudden your phone will not sleep. If you undo the above, then wait a few hours, you will see the update notification pop up. Then you can accept or decline it and your phone will then be back to normal (it won't burn through the battery.)
accept it and it should take you to recovery once you get to recovery it'll ask if you want to install unknown file do not go any further just reboot the phone and the notification will temporarily go away for while
Use rom toolbox to change build.Prop file to current build number. There are 6 or so entries. Reboot....

Download System tuner then select the startups menu option. Once in the startups sub menu go down to Google services framework and select it, do not un-check it just click on it and go into sub menu. Once your in un-check the update.systemupdateinstalldialog box and that should do it. only un-check that box.

Hello,
With the Lollipop update going out, I was going to see if it was available. Well, my Check for Updates option is gone! It disappeared! I know where is used to be...Settings->About Phone. It just isn't there at all. It isn't greyed out or anything, it doesn't exist.
I checked every place under settings, and it's not anywhere. So, does anyone have a clue as to what happened to my Check for Updates option?
Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Thank you for responding. Unfortunately, I do not have an option anywhere for Check for Updates (except for the security part). I am confused!
If you don't have System Updates at the bottom of the settings menu then it must have been turned off.
Have you used the DeBloater utility by @gatesjunior (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58068827&postcount=1) or the script to turn off OTA updates by @Misterxtc (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57476453&postcount=1)? Both of these procedures have the capability to remove the System Updates menu. If you have then you need to re-enable the processes that control system updates. Probably the easiest way to do this is with the script by @Misterxtc.
Thank You Dwillian! I totally forgot I did this. You saved me a lot of time and sanity! I really don't know if I would have ever remembered I did this, had you not responded.

I'm interested how the update works out for you.
I'm holding off a bit before I take the update to Lollipop. I'm interested in rooting my phone (assuming that becomes possible in the near future), so I'm going to wait awhile.
I may still go ahead and take the LP update if I see favorable reports and @gatesjunior's Debloater works on LP.
Any feedback on LP is appreciated.

ok so my title isn't all that clear I have a sprint note 4, the boyfriend got a att note 4. I came here to find the root for it and of course, there isn't one. I want to add a few apps to his phone that require root, even without root is there a work around? Specifically I want to add titanium backup and an ad blocker. Getting rid of all the bloatware would be a bonus too. But if I can add tibu then I can freeze the bloat. Thanks guys! I know nothing about att as I'm strictly a sprint girl.
So far there is a temp. root called KingRoot you can find a link there, also that root only works on kitkat 4.4 so you/him would have to downgrade and start fresh, that can be found here.
Of course with the temp root, it deactivates after a reboot, I believe a user stated that after a certain amount of time without reboot it deactivated (not positive).. Also many users stated that removing the bloatware or any other apps through titanium restored itself after reboot, same happened with me when I tried, I think one user stated that he removed the apps and it stayed gone after reboot..
More on the status of a permanent root for AT&T can be found here, I recommend starting from the end and working back if you want to read! Good Luck!

Yesterday a new update appears in LG G3's Update Center. It has the name Compatibility Patch (20160722). It says that is a patch that it is important for apps compatibility or something like that. I downloaded the update and then I had to restart the device in order to install the update. Do you know anything about this update?
I have to reboot after patch installation over and over again
I use fulmics 5.3 and this patch came out. I installed it, no issue.

Same here. Shows up after every reboot.
I found a solution myself.
My device was encrypted. So I removed the encryption, rebooted the device started new and Taaa-Daaa!
Patch notification has gone.
Mine's encrypted, too. Sad, this seems to be the solution.

if you have Titanium Bkup installed then patch should have been auto freezed by TB. You can have look into it. Another thing go to app Updates see under IDLE APPS your Compatibility patch should show button "Enable", don't enable this button. This is for information to all.

You can try my above post and for Comp patch notification you can disable by going into settings ... app... notification Tab ... disable all notification for this Comp patch, you won't get notification any more for this, that is what I did.
First freeze this patch in Titanium BkUp.

Yesterday I have installed those Compatibility patch on my D855 (fulmics 5.3).. And this was a mistake.
Yes, I can confirm that the phone charges much more faster with the patch installed..
But the battery is discharging also very fast now! Faster than before.
Anyone have an idea how to uninstall this thing, or bring back the previous version of the apk file
which was in the system before this upgrade, without hard reseting or reflashing entire phone again?
Thnx in advance.
BTW.. TitaniumBackup can not uninstall this, shows only info: "the app can't be uninstalled, because there is no apk file".
And the second question..
Can this apk file be safely deleted manual from the system?
Or anyone can upload from own phone the original app: com.lge.systemupdater from the fulmics 5.3?

First of all you know that this is an official patch from LG so no harm to instal. But if any one have issues after installing it like you said battery discharging faster and so I really have no idea about it is really happening due to patch or so. If you want to remove this patch there is no way unless you do something and screwing up your phone. The most simple way what i did was freeze the application from T.B. and turn off the application's notification by going to the settings...apk..comppatch..notification...disable all notification and you are done. And ha don't do any stupid thing by touching anything to system files you will end up in boot loop so careful. My above method is simple and only way to come out. Those who want to keep the patch there is no harm they can keep as it is the patch.

First of all you know that this is an official patch from LG so no harm to instal. But if any one have issues after installing it like you said battery discharging faster and so I really have no idea about it is really happening due to patch or so. If you want to remove this patch there is no way unless you do something and screwing up your phone. The most simple way what i did was freeze the application from T.B. and turn off the application's notification by going to the settings...apk..comppatch..notification...disable all notification and you are done. And ha don't do any stupid thing by touching anything to system files you will end up in boot loop so careful. My above method is simple and only way to come out.

Honestly?
This is no answer to my questions.
- Yes.. I know that is from LG.
- Yes it is a way to remove (always is a way)
- Freezing does NOTHING in my case - the patch was already installed, the app was autofreezed in the TB, there was no any nags, notificacions etc.
- Why should I not touch anything? heh.. mega-lol
- Your method does nothing but freezing the already installed app. Means: the patch is applied already - so.. a bit to late for freezing.
- "..there is no harm.." - heee?! What?! No harm? Then how to describe so fast battery discharging? Feature? Bonus? eeeeeeehhh.. Maaaannn..
Ok.. back to the clue..
Freezing is not a fix.. in my case. Is jus a workaround and not so very functional.
Update:
Problem solved - I do a dirty reflash of Fulmics 5.3 and this crappy patch is gone.
My phone (battery) works now ok.
BTW..
LG should inform the people what exactly this "compatibility update" do in the phone(s)!
They should give us an option to uninstall/remove them.
But.. they do an piece of crap.. as usual.
