    disable over-the-air update in Moto X phone?

    I have recently bought a new Moto X smartphone for myself and have rooted it successfully as well. But even after rooting I am getting a notification for an Over-the-Air update, which I was thinking that we shouldnt be getting after rooting the device. Anyways, I am looking for a way to disable this update coming up on my phone? So is there a way to disable this thing? Thank you

    You can easily freeze the OTA update or the FOTA update for Motorola mobile phones by going to this location in the phone \etc\security and then renaming the otacerts.zip to otacerts.zip.bak. Till now there are no apps for disabling the OTA notification in android mobile phones. You will need to do it manually in your Moto X.

    There is also a temporary solution to disable the OTA update notification in your Android phone. When you get a notification for Over the Air Update for the latest firmware then simply long press on the notification and then choose "app info" and then FC. You cannot get the option to disable the notification though and it might be greyed out.

    First of all you need to root your Moto X and then use the Titanium backup. After that you have to use the freeze all apps and features and then deselect everything. Now you have to search for SDM and then select it by putting a check in the box and then click the green check at the top right side of the screen in your mobile phone.
