How to disable IOS from automatically downloading updates and prompts

Apple devices automatically update their own firmware. When your devices are connected to IOT platform, they are secretly downloaded in the background. Although you can use cydia plug-ins such as "noota badge" to disable "setting"ProgramA digit "1" is displayed, but the firmware is downloaded to your Apple device, occupying your hard disk space (about 1.5 GB ), I just didn't remind you to update it. Therefore, such methods only cure the symptoms. To fundamentally eliminate this kind of behavior of secretly downloading and occupying device space by bandwidth, there are two methods:

1. Use the ETC/host file to shield the apple Update Server

Open the ETC/host file using the computer itools or the mobile phone ifile and add:

 
127.0.0.1 mesu.apple.com
 

To the file.

2. Modify the OTA configuration file of launchdaemons.

Use the ifile or itools File Manager to change the name (recommended) or delete it (not recommended)

 
/System/library/launchdaemons
 

Under

Egcom. apple. mobile. softwareupdated. plist -- OTA update. If you do not need to update the system function automatically, you can change the name or delete it. com. apple. otataskingagent. plist: notifies the system to update Ota. If you do not need to update OTA automatically, you can change the name or delete it. com. apple. softwareupdateservicesd. plist-Ota Update service. If you do not need OTA update, you can change the name or delete it.
 

Add a suffix to the service. Remember to restart after renaming or deleting it!

3 other solutions are attached:

1. Remove the number 1 on the Right of general purpose and software updates.
Enter

 
System/library/coreservices
 

Folder, find systemversion. plist, and copy it to your computer,

Change the value of productbuildversion to 10b329, the version to 6.1.3, copy the modified file on the computer to the mobile phone to overwrite the original file, and then restart the mobile phone.

Or useBadgeclearThis cydia plugin.

2. Delete the update package that has been downloaded to the device.

Delete

/Var/mobile/library/assets/com_apple_mobileasset_softwareupdate
 

Download temporary firmware packages from OTA in the directory

3. Other methods to Prevent Automatic Updates

You can use the cydia plug-in "no update", but I have not tried it.
