ROM and / or Update Help / Advice please



While I am fairly technically proficient, my father is not. My father has a Sprint Galaxy S6 and the bloatware drove him nuts. So I removed said bloatware. He does not care about Facebook, online banking, or any apps. He only uses the phone for Phone, Text and E-mail and the occasional road trip he will use Google play music.

I rooted, and removed his junk apps, installed TWRP and xPosed so I could make private mode work for him (Wanam Xposed module). However whenever samsung pushes an update, he tells me that in spite of him saying "no", it will still force the update - which causes it to fail, and reboot into TWRP. So he wakes up, wondering if he missed an important call and has to figure out how to reboot from TWRP (again, he is an older gentleman, not at all tech literate, and is your typical "I just want it to work" old man)

So can anyone suggest a custom ROM or a way to make the updates not download like they used to when it was "modified in an unauthorised way" ?
