How do I stop my android from updating?

How to turn off automatic updates on an Android device

  1. Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.
  2. Tap the three bars at the top-left to open a menu, then tap “Settings.”
  3. Tap the words “Auto-update apps.”
  4. Select “Don’t auto-update apps” and then tap “Done.”

Why does my phone say Android is upgrading?

It means the phone was updates just now and its optimizing your apps for use. When you install these OTA updates (just the updates for your phone, never mind), it wipes up the cache partitions of your phone, which contains the . odex files or the Optimized dex files.
