I've been searching and havent found a definite answer to it. Is there anyway to disable the OTA notifications permanently? I'm tired of having to cancel it manually every 5 seconds after unlock screen. I'm on 1.85 rooted, bootloader locked. Tried date changes, tried letting it download then cancel, cache cleaner app, etc, nothing seems to work permanently. I even let it download once just to watch it fail and give me the error that it failed to install so wait until the next update is available. Did that and notification for the same update came back up again a day later. Or am I just stuck with always having to cancel manually?
Thanks

Delete the update.zip in your sd card and change the extension of the HTC/AT&T OTA apks in /system/app/.
Can we get the location of the downloaded OTA on the SD, and names of those specific APKs?

Yes, ditto on the specific apk names please

Hmmm looks like it might just be "updater.apk" I renamed the extension to .bak and rebooted. No OTA notification...yet. I'll report back.

Can someone in the know please confirm that renaming updater.apk is all that is required to prevent the OTA notification?
Yup, renaming the extension worked for me. Hasn't notified me of anything OTA for the last 2 days.

Just delete it and you will be fine. Thats what i always do just to be safe.
I haven't gotten an update notification in more than a month since I renamed updater.apk and .odex to .ap_ and .ode_ but today it started happening again.
How can I kill it dead?

So at home on wifi my One X connects/disconnects/connects/disconnects over and over, so obviously I can't update at home.
In my office, zscaler blocks the update.
So I downloaded the update at a Starbucks.. and I keep getting prompted in the notification bar that it's completed, I click it and it says dl successful.
..then the notification disappears and reappears after a couple minutes with the same popup, dl successful.
How can I apply this? Can I boot manually into recovery and apply it? any other ways to apply this thing?
Try to reset your phone and run the update again. This method has helped a few members in this forum.

I tried this, and after checking for an update, it said no updates available. So I am stuck on 1.73? Anyone else have this happen?

Thank you very much. This worked for me.
Thanks to jujuburi
Found this here
All functions appear to work, Notification pull-down was causing it to crash, however, backing-up and removing the original clock from /system/app and rebooting has EVERYTHING working as it should!
I installed this manually by moving it into /system/app with Root Explorer and changing permissions to rw-r--r--
You might be more comfortable using the flashable zip from the original thread!?

nice job, i like it!
Is there a widget for this app? I don't see it.
Edit: oh I see it I guess it's only a analog clock.

I removed the original one and pushed this one to system/app, and it force closes when I try to enter the alarms part. Everything else works. Anyone else experiencing this?

Did you re-boot, that should get rid of the f/c
Reboot doesn't help :/
That's surprising, it may be to do with CM10, I have this running without problem on Blackbean-6 .
Did you definitely remove DeskClock.apk?
Yeah, but I found this app in play store and it's great, i actually prefer it over the 4.2 one

Have you tried going to settings>apps and clearing the cache & data from 'Clock' then reboot, give that a go if not!
All the best
The day the JB OTA was released I deferred it. It then downloaded a couple of days later, which surprised me. I deferred the install and immediately rooted and unlocked. Then I ran Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper. After noticing one continuous wakelock caused by SDM I froze it. I'm hoping all this blocks the OTA from installing itself. If not what else can I do?
Also where is the downloaded file so I can delete it? Thanks!

Hello
I have rooted at&t htc one x. Everytime I unlock my phones screen it is starting to search for software update and never ends. Also, if i want to check manually it also takes ages.
Can I somehow turn this automatic update search off?

Google how to change update schedule for your phone model, there is a lot of sites with your info. In past it was used to manipulate update settings. Also if you are rooted then use app like titanium to freeze or remove update module. I personally would remove it as oem updates are garbage IMO .

Have you thought about installing custom ROM for your phone. Here is a good link with lots of options. I would use a task manager app and see what's running that's triggering that search.

I don't see any solution myself. What's happening with your phone is not normal. There's something wrong. The only way to fix it would be to ruu or clean flash a rom if you are bootloader unlocked.

Sorry these questions are forbidden as there is no best rom.
Check them all out. Read the features. If you see a rom with the features you want download and flash it.
Use titanium backup and freeze the OTA updater. Not sure what its called. My mother in law just got a One X, so I'm browsing these forums.
In my S3, its called AT&T Updater or OTA Updater. I haven't been stock in a while. I hope this helped.

Thanks for your suggestions. I'll wait for end of this month, for 4.2 and sense 5 update, if it will still remain as a issue, I'll get a custom rom.

Could someone link me their worldclock.apk? For some unknown reason my whole clock app has just stopped working and I cannot open it at all. Just force closes. I even tried reinstalling from system and it just tells me "cannot install app" I have no clue what is going on and this will be a last ditch effort before I wipe everything lol. Thanks.

Do you still have the Rom on your sd card in your phone. If so just extract the apk from the zip with root explorer and paste IN system/app with rw-r-r permissions and reboot
