Get rid of 5.1.1 update notification? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6

I'm on 5.0.2 and rooted (via PingPong). I rooted after the update notification (for 5.1.1) showed up, and now I can't get the notification to go away. Does anybody know of a way to get rid of the notification or will I have to just live with it?

I am rooted via pingpong and I never received a notification when the update became available...

I fear that my problem may be that because the notification already showed up before root I'm stuck with it. Whereas if you rooted before, then that process doesn't carry through.

did you ever get this resolved, was about to root mine and stumbled on your thread. I have the notification also, but havent rooted yet

Use titanium backup to freeze softwareupdate.

Can confirm. Freezing software update does remove the icon.

That's what I was thinking too; Titanium Backup to freeze it. Will have to hunt around and find the process to freeze again (been a while), but that should do it.

Thanks

any non-root way of doing it....I am a T-mobile build that still isn't supported by pingpong root

usually you can find that downloaded update under the /CacheFolder....
if by any chance you open that folder and you see nothing, then good.. that means the download OTA update was not successfuly saved to your phone. Just erase that folder and you should be good after that. (use Root Explorer to really view the file inside the folder).
Regarding stopping the popup updates, you can stop that by using a tasker app that force stop the 'Software update' process (from always popping on your phone.) Or the alternate way also would be to use Titanium backup and freeze the 'Software update' process.
Cheers!
you keep root in almost all ota cases

There is nothing to worry about root. You will retain root. Howevr if you get partial root after OTA update just download busybox from market and install it.
You can always avoid reminders about OTA using Titanium Backup. Select the OTA and freeze it. Gone for life till you have Titanium Backup installed. lol

Halfway Rooted

I'll start off and say this strange. Root checker says I'm not rooted. The superuser app says I'm not rooted. The thing is I've been able to edit the build.prop, install safestrap, custom boot animation through rom toolbox pro, and I think a few other things. There are some root things I can do and others that I can't. I've never seen anything like this before.

I have a similar situation also a first for me, have root apps working but some not. Voodoo OTA Root Keeper says I'm Rooted but root checker says NO and busybox agrees. Investigating forums has left me wondering which ways to finish getting root All The Way back are safe? Would love to hear from a few more who had this problem and found a way around it.

Glad I'm not the only one who is having this issue.

If root got broken by the JB update and none of the Voodoo restore methods are working then you're going to have to re-root via the new Motoshare2 exploit: http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/topic/16518-root-motoshare-2-old-bug-new-exploit/
I managed to get root, install Safe Strap, then lose root. With safe strap I was easily able to open my prior rom that has root. Of I where to move my OTA Rootkeeper file, would I be able to restore root on the unsafe side (default jb)?

Latest ota with root?

Hey guys, so I'm on 4.4 with a locked boot loaded and so-on with root.
The ota keeps prompting me to install. What should I do? I'm assuming if I allow it, it'll break root.
Thanks

If you have titanium backup, then you can freeze updater 1.0 and MotorolaOTA 1.0 and this will stop the constant prompting.

1. You should search.
2. Use Titanium to freeze MotorolaOTA

Stop AT&T updates on rooted 4.3 Stock

I currently have NB4. I do not want to lose root.
AT&T keeps trying to download and install update even though I have set no security update in settings. Is there a way to block this? Perhaps Greenify the update process?? Thx.
Use titanium backup or root app delete to freeze the att update app

ISIS app and root question

Hello,
I was rooted on 4.3 with Kingo. I never used the ISIS app before. But after I did the upgrade OTA to 4.4 I of course lost root. But the app is still saying i'm rooted..? Is this some kind of flag that it detected that I have been rooted before? I did some searching on how to enable it but I need root access again lol
Thank you,
reset phone!

You still have the superuser app installed probably because you didn't unroot before the update and it can't be uninstalled till we get root

You are one of the many of us who simply didn't unroot before we either patched or received the OTA update.
We're waiting paitently for root.

Aw figured as such. By resetting the phone what's the best way to get everything back the way it was before I do a reset? Is there a simple backup app?

resetting wont fix it only way is to reroot then unroot to remove superuser so your stuck till we get root on 4.4.2
The only thing you can do is go to the Samsung Experience at Best Buy and ask them to flash the 4.4.2 ROM over what you have now, do a few factory resets after that and the Custom issue will resolve itself.
Same here, was hoping to find a solution. Want that $50
