To disable OTA (over the air) updates:
Change the name of this file: otacerts.zip to anything else
Run root explorer
Go to etc/security/otacerts.zip
Hit the little mount button near the top to change r/w to r/o
Rename the file otacerts.zip to otacerts.zip_DISABLED_OTA_UPDATES
Hit the little mount button again to change r/o back to r/w

Not guaranteed 100%, but best / easiest way I've personally seen posted so far.
