How can I programmatically disable automatic updates from Google? (Ice Cream Sandwich)
<p>My company makes a tablet Android app to control an industrial process.   We had been using a Galaxy Tab 10.1, but as that's no longer available in the US we're evaluating the Galaxy Tab <strong>2</strong> 10.1, running 4.03.    We ship the tablet pre-installed with our app, and the app is carefully tested with the version of Android software running on the tablet.</p>

<p>As I was setting up one of the new tablets the setup wizard put up a message saying "<em>You agree that your tablet may receive and install updates from Google</em>"     It wasn't asking me, it was <strong>telling</strong> me; there was no place to say "no" or disagree.   Auto update is DISabled in settings.</p>

<p>How can I programmatically prevent a force-feed update to the tablet?    Our users are connected to a local area net because the tablets are used to control other industrial products, but there is <strong>never</strong> any need to connect to the web beyond the factory walls, but we have no way to enforce that on our customers.    The risk is that Google could force a change onto the tablet that might break our app.</p>

<p>Thanks in advance. </p>
