Does the disable updates method for firmware also disable updates for apps?

No. Apps can still get updates when firmware updates are disabled.

[Q] Question in regards to rooting the galaxy nexus

If I were to root my nexus and Google was to release an update, would I get a notice that an update is available and then be able to update it? Or once I do root then I wont be getting anymore notifications that updates are available and I am on my own?

[Q] What constitutes an OTA update?

I am a little confused about what constitues an OTA update and wished to clarify this throughly since all rooting methods have a precautionary message regarding this.
From what I know:
1. OTA updates are "only" firmware updates.
What I am confused about:
Considering my above assumption of it being only a firmware update to be right
1. Does OTA update refer to only certain methods of firmware installation?
2.Are there methods to permanently disable it such that only intentional manual procedure will cause it to happen ( E.g: System settings)
Thanks in advance :good:

OTA updates will never install automatically, so take that off your worry list
1.) OTA updates are downloaded to the phone after you allow the download to proceed. Even if you accidentally click download, it will confirm with you again before rebooting the phone and installing it.
2.) If it does give you the notification, you can just long click the notification and Force Close the process. Then it won't bother you again until the next update comes out, or you choose to unroot and flash preroot, then update.

Nexus 7 will not Update OTA with root

The notification an update
Hello! I have a problem about update information, i have root and every time i have this information. I installed new room but it did not change anything. I have a question, maybe there is a file that can be removed. Maybe someone had the same problem and knows how to do to update notification disappeared.
In my experience the newer Lollipop updates will fail if you are rooted. Just update manually using toolkit or some other method.
yes I know but need information on how to disable the update information which there is all the time
