[Q] Remove System Upgrade notifiction

[heywheelie]

I am happily running lolipop 5.0.2 but I have an annoying system upgrade notification icon sitting on the status that I can't make go away.
I have software updates set to 'Do not update automatically'
I've tried 3C Toolkit and unchecked the system update service in Google Play Framework as well as Do not display notifications for Google Play Services not neither works.

Any suggestions as to how I can remove the icon and notification please?

what app is that? There is an UpdateCenter.apk at the address yo-u mention but in TB the only update center mentioned is the update service, no app. What am I supposed to uninstall?

In TB you will see "Software update < version number > ".

Easiest way is to simply install Autostarts off f-droid-(free apk not on play store). It has two options. By name or by action. Using both, disable whatever you want. I uninstall myexperia using Amaze file manager and simply disable updater. Though uninstalling it too wouldn't hurt either.
