Is there a way to stop getting all OTA updates, so that my phone doesn't brick?
Turn off Internet why you afraid of bricking your phone?
Look for packages that have "ota" in them and pm disable them.

Is there anyway or application or method to put on my actual firmware that i prevent anyone from updating it?
Or also block any updates by KIES or also prevent ODIN from flashing a new one?
I want to keep always the same firmware and keep it untouched for ever.
How could i disable updates? (i mean if someone takes my phone and try to update the firmware manually)
Or how i could block and technician from flashing my firmware?
Any ideas? or method to protect my firmware?
regards.
Anyone?? I'm interested too..

im trying to root my phone by following the above process..
i have some doubts...
1. Will I lose my OTA updates by rooting using that method?
2. Will I lose anything else or will something be broken ( if any) ..???
Rooting doesnt break anything aside OTA because it checks your system for it being correct and usualy root causes this to fail so updates via flashtool.
I unlocked and rooted my phone awhile back with 23.16.3.surnia_usc US cellular phone now with this security update that keeps nagging me and fails to update 23.201.2.en.US. Is there a way I can stop or remove this nag update? I have read in some places if I could get the update as a zip file that would take care of the issue. while in other forums they so no it won't work. Not really wanting to brick my phone, so any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank You

I've searched and searched and the only answer I've found was to disable system update service in Google Play Services which I did some time ago, but today I had to restore my wife's phone because it had downloaded and was attempting to install an update. Though I wouldn't mind an update per say I do not want to have to re-root and reinstall TWRP assuming it's even possible with the update so I'd soon not have them. Can someone please tell me how to stop this situation until I decide I actually want to update? Also any clues on how to actually update without the pain would be nice too. Thanks.
I've made a guide for this.
