    Cool Disable OTA update on nearly all Android Makes

    [hide-thanks]open command prompt enter the following:
    adb shell
    mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system
    cd /system/etc/security
    mv otacerts.zip otacerts.zip.bak

    or use root explorer and go to system>etc>security and rename the otacerts.zip to otacerts.zip.bak

    The top one was found at : [Only registered and activated users can see links. ][/hide-thanks]

    Default

    That worked wonderfully! No more nagging screen to perform an update. Had to buy Root Explorer to do it the simplified way, but it was worth it; plus, Root Explorer is a great app anyway.
