i havent run into an issue yet with updates. but i know that i just downgraded this revo and finished the root procedure. its a little tricky and involved. i will look into any update notifications i can and see what i can find out. in the mean time...i saw on here many people looking for ways to root and if your skimming to the back of this thread like me, you can root the evo v6, you just have to downgrade first. ill put these links down below as im sure its been already posted a hundred times on this thread alone.

Good question.... I'm the OP and have yet to get an answer to my question. I'm glad you guys are getting your phones all rooted, but couldn't you have started a separate thread devoted to JUST that?? My phone was rooted BEFORE the updates (1 click method) but it still is trying to update and it's really becoming a pain. Without UN-rooting it is there a Gingerbread ROM I could load or something I could do to just make it stop???

Can someone place the v4 firmware online, I've looked for the past few days and with all of the internet anti-piracy lock down stuff fileserve no longer offers it for download.

I can't find any rom downloads or whatever they are can on rom manager that will work for my LG Revo 2.3.4. I'm a little disappointed seems like this phone would have a theme or something to put on. Which is the main reason I rooted my phone

How is this done? Because having the OTA try to push my phone 5 days away at 2am is really annoying. It's killing my battery and burning memory most days I'm starting and re-starting and pulling the battery to unfreeze it almost 3 times a day. Or I can simply go to VZN and get a phone with the ZV8 update on it, and hope to high SummerLands someone builds a root for it. I know everyone hates the REVO and there is like 0-No tech on here for it. But someone please help me. I love my root especially when I go out of town and have to take my laptop with me.

Open the Google play market. Download root uninstaller app. Browse the system apps in root uninstaller. When you see software update, tap on it. It will ask if you want to backup, freeze, delete, and a few other options. Tap on FREEZE. once frozen you will not have any more OTA push updates.
