A method and system are provided for providing a controlled software update to a group of computing devices. A server distributes a software update over the air to a first group of computing devices, through a wireless communication network. The first group of computing devices is monitored for successful installation of the software update. Upon determining that the software update is subject to a problem or potential problem, a second group of computing devices is identified based on the monitoring of the first group of computing devices. A software update cancellation message is sent through the wireless communication network to the second group of computing devices, instructing the second group of computing devices to cancel the software update in a way that is silent to the user of each respective computing device.
