It appears that the name of the file/software for preventing the auto-update for new software has changed. I know you can continue to tell it no, but I do know in the past that eventually it can sneak up on you in the middle of the night when you can't tell it no. Does anyone know the name of the file(s) that needs to be frozen in Titanium?

Honestly I thought it had changed because if memory serves me correctly, the software update option disappeared from the settings back on the S5. This is why I thought it was different.

If you look under system apps it is shown as SDM.apk. Under titanium I believe it is shown as system updates 1.0

One of the apps which did it was Battery Widget Reborn. I initially tried installing it via .apk and got the error. Then the same app normally installed via Play store.

Not trying to be snarky, but what good is a smartphone without internet access? Sounds like a $400 paperweight. Are you running a virus scanner that could possibly be blocking sideloading?

I'm having a similar issue. I've been using a slingplayer app that I downloaded over two years ago. I had it working on my Nexus 5 until I switched to ART. After the switch it wouldn't install. I switched back to Dalvik and now it won't reinstall. I can and have installed every other apk on my phone with no problem since switching back except for this one. Any suggestions?

Tried that and it didn't work, but...
PROBLEM SOLVED! What I did was to do a thorough search inside my root to find anything related to the app I was trying to install. I found out that the app has somewhat partially installed in few places. I then deleted all of those and tried installing again. Worked.

I also tried switching between Dalvik and ART but it didn't seem to change anything. I suggest you search your root for any remnants of the app you want to install. Look in data/app, data/app-lib, data/data and system/app.
Whenever I change my compiler from dalvik to ART in developer settings, it just reboots but doesn't actually change. Any suggestions on what I could have done/how to fix it? Thank you!

Are you on a deodexed ROM?
Edit: never mind what I said below, as it is incorrect... I must have misunderstood. Sorry for any confusion.
You can't use ART on the stock Verizon rom. They didn't include the runtime - or at least that is what someone reported right after the phone came out.

Some background: I do use xposed, I accidentally flashed the advanced power menu mod on stock, but it didn't seem to do anything so I've left it for now, and I've deleted some bloat verizon apps with root explorer.

Not technically deodexed but it's no longer an odex ROM thus you break the function..

you need to be 100% odexed.
When I've tried ART in my other devices (note 3, LG G2) it really seemed like a waste of time. Wasn't noticeably faster, and broke things.

Any chance you are running xposed as well? ART and Xposed will not work together. Xposed will disable the ART option on boot if you don't disable Xposed first.

Some people like myself like to wait and see what problems these updates may create. I've read and experienced things not working as good as they did before a update was pushed. Sometimes they also block ways to root a device witch many people here would love to have.
Today I decided to go back to stock. And so I did and the i rooted.
But i inatalled GMusicFS and it says i don't have root, even having SuperSU and other APPs say I have. Can anybody help me with that?
Personally I think it's an issue with the app. It does not appear it's been updated for marshmallow.

Well you're updated.
I don't see anything else you might do.
The common solutions are try another card (formated to extFAT), try the card in another phone and factory reset.
