The annoying update - X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm running Android 6.0, and I am getting penetrated for updating to 6.0.1.
Well, my phone is unlocked, rooted and with TWRP recovery. I did the update to 6.0, but the procedure was quite time-consuming. Play back old backup that only had root but no other system modifications, unroot, flash stock recovery, update, and do the whole thing again. It was ok for a major update, but way to complex for a small one. I would like the security updates, but not at that cost.
What other options do I have? I can't seem to get rid of the annyoing, very pushy Update notification wich just *** pops up in the foreground. All I can do is delay it for 23h59min, which needs multiple inputs for that..
Is there a update file for en.EU that I can flash dirty via TWRP? Or a way to disable the update notifications?

Capture the OTA zip for our common humans didn't received the OTA yet. Download the update, do not install and reboot in recovery. The OTA zip is in /cache folder. With TWRP in /cache and copy the zip to sdcard.

Thank you for your effort! But unfortunately this isn't the 6.01 OTA arriving in March, it's just a security patch from February... Bad news for some of us
On the other hand, you could ban the update notification 'hiding' the Motorola Update Services: adb pm hide com.motorola.ccc.ota
Or like you are rooted, you could freeze the app with some 3rd party like Titanium Backup.

Sorry it's just the security patch. I got the Notification in February, got annoyed a few days with it, and then it dissapeared again, starting to show up again a few days ago.
I also just found out that I can block it via TB (Motorola Update Service), but to know the adb command is nice, thanks.
From what I read to now, the update is not easy, you basically have to start from scratch again, which is too time-consuming. I'll block it for now and check out what that march update may offer.

Yeah I've been getting the notification for about a week now myself. Been doing exactly the same thing as you by setting the notification to 23h59m just to get it to shut up otherwise it bothers me every time I wake my phone. I actually tried to run the update and it just went to TWRP and failed. Would love a way of updating without having to wipe.

Always capture an OTA if possible

How to disable OTA notifications?

Last month I rooted my N1 using Amon Ra's procedure (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=612858). Now, I'm getting Google OTA update notices, but I'm not sure whether this will work with my rooted ROM. I've read some contradictory reports about success and failure during OTA with a rooted N1, and I'd rather wait to apply this OTA until it's more clear to me whether I can successfully do this on my own rooted phone.
However, I'm constantly receiving OTA update notifications. When I say "Install later", another notification comes up within 30 minutes or so. I'm wondering if there is a way to disable these annoying messages until I'm ready to actually apply this OTA update.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

New Update for Verizon SGP561 Android 4.4.2

I have the Verizon SGP561 running Android 4.4.2 rooted with PhilZ Touch & CWM & TWRP installed. I just received notice of an OS update. Has anyone else receive this and know what it is? I hesitate to take any updates and don't want to lose root.
OK--- Just found this to answer one of the questions --
OTA update 23.0.1.E.0.208 also includes "optimized touch sensitivity," better performance for users who encrypt their tablet, improved support for TalkBack (Google's accessibility service for the visually impaired), and minor UI tweaks to fonts, icons, and layouts. None of it is particularly crucial, and no , it doesn't include an update to Android: Verizon's version of the Tablet Z2 is running the same build of Android 4.4 that is was back in July. But it's hard to be too miffed about that, since the Wi-Fi version of the Tablet Z2 hasn't been upgraded to Lollipop, either.
Now the question is will I lose root if I apply it...
I would also like to know if we would lose root with this update.

i took the plunge and tried it...
i used the supersu and used survival mode and installed as a system app
I am STILL ROOTED
Thanks! Except I've tried 4 times to update and keep getting failed. Using stock recovery so not sure what's going on.

I didn't change my recovery, I only rooted it yesterday and then 20min later enabled su as system app and then survival mode and applied update. No issues here
So far running good, however when I go into settings and tick on airplane mode it actually doesn't goto airplane mode. The only way I can get air plane mode is by holding the power button and selecting air plane mode.
Not sure if this is a error with root or glitch with the new update.
We now have a reboot option tho (not like I have ever needed it on this awesome tab)
On mine the update fails. Says "There was a problem with the update..." As I said, I am on 4.4.2 using NUTs dual recovery and root. I install SuperSu as a system app .
It makes me disappointed I spent money on the sixaxis controller on play store to not figure out how it works for the Z2 tablet a month prior to this update.
Maybe I could use it on other non-Sony devices?
Since my system update thing doesn't work, is there another way of acquiring and applying this update?

You can use this software to download the ftf file and flash it manually using flashtool http://forum.xda-developers.com/cro...perifirm-xperia-firmware-downloader-t2834142/ (will lose data and root)
Update: I've found a way to update the latest version without losing root and posted here http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...et-verizon-t3054700/post59440416#post59440416
Any idea on a lollipop update compatible with the sgp561?

Update Rooted Moto X Pure

Hello, I recently got the September update for Moto X Pure and I want to know how to update my phone. I've read around and it seems that I need to restore to unrooted stock before I can flash the image as opposed to just flashing the image without doing anything else then re-install TWRP and reroot. Can anyone provide steps in how to do this?
Do you have systemless root?
Open SuperSU, settings, full unroot. if you have Xposed installed, you'll need to flash the xposed uninstaller through TWRP. Now to remove TWRP, you need to download the latest stock rom and flash only the recovery.img from your computer.
Honestly I wouldn't mess with it. It's just a security patch. Wait until Nougat gets to our phone in a month or so then do a clean install (or follow the steps above) with that.

Is there a way to stop the constant notifications that I have a system update that needs to be applied?
use titanium backup and freeze Motorola Update Services 8.0.2 , i believe should do it.
My question is where is the update stored?
can someone tell me the location in the root of the device that ota gets downloaded to?
I'm trying to find the latest security update and back it up, so I dont have to download it again if it is large.
I saw a huge hit on my montly data usage around 700mb which i assume was the update but all i found in /cache was Blur_Version.24.11.18.clark_retus.retus.en.US.zip and was only 6.53MB in size.
I also checked /data/data/com.motorola.ccc.ota/ ....nothing there
Thanks for any info.
I suspect my carrier is bloating my reported data usage, but i'm unsure.

The OTA update in January, dated Sept 2016, is 40.2MB in size and build number 24.221.8.en.US.
Not sure what is chewing up 700mb of data, but it isn't the OTA... Do you have automatic update on in the Play Store? There were tons of large updates in January, I may be exaggerating but it seemed like 2-3 times a "normal" month.

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.

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
