    Is there a way to turn off software update notifications on 5.01? Wife's phone shows a message that 5.1 is available but as it j/b I don't want her to accidentally upgrade it:)
    Oddly mine - same phone and same Ios doesn't do this?

    Download No Update from Cydia.

    Thanks, installed that but it still shows the small red 1 on the top right of the settings icon? Was trying
    to get rid of that as well:)

    Just saying, it's impossible to accidentally update if it's jailbroken since it'll download but it'll give you an error.

    I had the same issue, get BadgeClear from cydia its amazing. It will clear the red notification on settings, did the job for me! And I used it on the App store and other apps to clear the notifications on them that I didn't need reminding of.
    And also make sure to get yourself No Update from cydia as mentioned by C0C0 above.

    Just edit the SystemVersion.plist in Root>System>Library>CoreServies. Change 5.0.1 to 5.1. Also I suggest you delete the OS update launch daemon, there is a guide on here to do that.

    That can cause a few problems.
    You can do it this way though.
