I mostly stay in airplane mode, but I've checked and find out that the system created a file 'update.bin.tmp.partial', then:
1) I hastly switched airplane mode on;
2) Checked back door lock, it's still in locked state, no help there;
3) Removed 'update.bin.tmp.partial' file and created a folder with the same name;
4) Switched airplane mode off, to check wifi and folder has not disappeared;
5) Checked even after restart this method persists;
6) I'm waiting what happens next but for now I'm hopeful;
7) Profit! no OTA updates even after hours of Cloud browsing and stuff.

P.S. If there would be any changes, I'll try loging mentioning them when they'll happen.

Awesome! Thanks for the info! I'm going to do the same thing to my PW2 and go one step further and lock the folder down. haha

I verified that the folder did survive on 5.6.5 after a reboot and after I locked the folder down.
