System update OFF - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, i can at Nexus 5, disable system updates on a lollipop? I want to have a KitKat, but in settings-phone- details download system updates is not an option to cancel the notice of the availability of OTA.
Other phones here have the option not to notice, nexus 5 no

Huh?

He wants to know how to stop the Lollipop OTA from coming through to his KitKat device. More precisely, he is concerned about the persistent notification.

And here we are getting impatient coz Google haven't given us the OTA update. Google really need to sort their issues out. People who want the OTA update should be able to get it and people who don't should be able to refuse it.

Google makes available the previous version of Android, but does not allow the previous version of the system have to leave. Why is it then makes available ???

Yes, your English is bad. I still don't understand what you are saying. The good folks at Google make factory images for older versions of Android available and what's your beef with that?

I want to have to stand in the Nexus 5, KitKat. And I do not know how to disable the warning system on new lollipop.
Here I wonder why Google makes available for all Nexus devices older version of Android, we can not be then in tlelefonu permanently.

1. Do not stand on your phone. You'll break it.
2. I wasn't aware Lollipop came with a warning system. What does it warn you of?
3. 'tlelefonu' isn't a word. What are you trying to say here?

1. I dont anderstandt you.
2. My sister wants to update her favorite game supports only Dalvik. And she got used to the KitKat and wants a new environment, my sister does not like the lollipop system. The materials nor design is not like her to.
3. correction:
Otherwise, I wonder why Google makes available for all Nexus devices older version of Android, we can not be the phone permanently.

When you long press the notification, and it takes you to the Apps section, do you have the option to ignore notifications from it?
Are you rooted? Are you on Dalvik? If you are on Dalvik, get Xposed and GravityBox.

I believe what he is asking is:
1 - is there a way to stop kitkat from displaying that there is an update available.
2 - Why does Google make older versions available if, when you flash them, you still get a persistent notification to update.
His sister wants to stay on kitkat because her favorite game needs Dalvik and won't run on lollipop.

GooGooMuck Yes it is. She has Dalvik and not root.
So far, nobody knows how to help us.
Once stable month-tested rom lollipop, so maybe update lollipop.
I wanted to write to other sections, perhaps should my topic noticed someone experienced android-people user.

Please do not write to other sections. If someone knows how to help, this is the best place to ask.
Unfortunately I am unaware of a way to stop the update notifications without having root.

Ohhh, finally I get it. Well,
1. No, there isn't. Not without root.
2. Same reason why they send update notifications to 1% of the Nexus device user base, while the rest of us wait in agony. Look at your example for instance... you're being pestered about the 5.0 update even when you don't want it. A friend of mine, he's studying overseas and left his Nexus 7 with his 56 year old mother, when leaving his home country, for Skyping n stuff. His mom now keeps asking him what an "Android 5.0 System Update" is and how to get rid of the notification, while he bangs his head against the wall with his KitKat Nexus 5 and his d*ck in his hand.

lol sorry this icon -question mark , i make testing functions
Before the KitKat without errors, it took a month or two months? (4.4.3 Nexus5)
After this experience with Android, a sister like to wait for a stable release, or lollipop never want.
I am changing in my Motorola moto g settings for morelocale2, wets pm adb commands (non-root) settings. To cancel the update notification system on a lollipop pm command does not exist?

So I got it, just disable the app OTA. Happy, i go back KitKat
edit: my motorola has the option to disable OTA (in Settings -> Applications) but nexus 7 2012 my father anymore.
I think that the Nexus 5 will be the same problem

I found that when kit kat ignore the call for availability OTA, so after 14 days to report ...... and will KitKat is 4rever

but windows 10 doesn't support all drivers we have to reboot pc with disable driver signature enforcement something like that. i have faced lot of issues when flashing os and with fastboot drivers which works awesome on w7. most annoying thing is microsoft spying on w10 and u cant stop it.

Erm.. I never had issues with drivers on my windows 10. I think you need to install the universal android drivers that are widely available on the internet. Regarding spying then since you are using an android which is a Google ptoduct, you cannot escape spying. Google is synonymous to spying

I even have this dream . Kitkat use dalvik vm and i feel it is smooth and easy to modify apps . Art has brought a lot of changes . If u want kitkat , u need to build cm11 . But this wont work in 99% cases ad u use a device tree from mm
Unfortunately no, because every smartphone (let's take the Galaxy s8 as an example), can't have a ROM That have an older version with what it came with, even if it came with 7.1, it can't have a custom ROM of 7.0

Do I have Lemon or Marshmallow? Device says 6.0.1

I'm confused. In About Phone my device says it's 6.0.1. Google tells me this is marshmallow but if I check it with an app such as CPU-Z it says my device is Lemon. Whats going on here?
I try to follow videos about features of 6.0.1 marshmallow and my device doesn't seem to have those features. Which one do I have and why is this not straight forward?
Edit: The phone manufacturer does claim it's 6.0.1 Marshmallow https://www.zteusa.com/jasperlte - So why don't I have Marshmallow features?
Could I have an illegal black market version of the phone?
Thank you.

O.k.. I have Marshmallow - then why don't I have the same Marshmallow functionality I see on 6.01 feature videos? For instance, I cannot hold down my system icon to access a system ui tweak settings page. It and other 6.0.1 features simply don't exist in my device - why? Shouldn't all stock Marshmallow 6.0.1 operating systems be identical?
I can see perhaps an exception if my device was missing a specific hardware required to make the application work but that's not the case with something as simple as UI tweak settings. I feel like i'm cheated out of functionality you know.

Thank you for your time and answers. If I could find a way to root the phone, i'd try to flash a version that gives me back all the stuff the OEM cut out. It's sad they work this way. I can get a copy of any Windows operating system and I'll always know it has full functionality no matter who installs it. Android should be the same way or don't claim it's really Marshmallow if it's a scaled down version. Not fair.
Again, My Thanks, sachin.

Android Developer Preview Discussion Thread

Hey Guys,
Want to discuss about the latest android developer preview
Will share the findings here.
All are welcome to do it here.
Hope we can create a stable preview soon.
First of all, apps which need to pass a security check don't work in the current build:
- Netflix
- Pokemon Go
- Others?
* The new gesture navigations options can't be found yet under Settings > System > Gestures. Although you can find the 3 options if you search in the settings, you can't change it.
* Some settings can only be changed via the developer options (accent colors, icon shape).
* Signal bar is not visible in the notification bar
Yup.
And fortunately, i am not facing some problems which are mentioned on the Nokia's community page.
Some missing features which i noticed are -
1. Gestures
2.Buggy Download manager
3.VoLTE seems to be working but not completely. I can receive calls but not make calls and send/receive sms.
4.Camera works fine. However, its the vanilla version of Camera app provided by Qualcomm so nothing special expected from it. Nokia will replace that app with it's own in upcoming builds.
5.External storage like SD card is not accessible by third-party apps but only system apps compatible with Android Q . I guess there are some changes with Storage framework because of which apps are not able to access SD card. Checked this with Whatsapp, instagram.
6.Apps requiring Google certifications/safety net or something similar would not work because the OS is still in Development phase.
7.Fingerprint is working fine, but is slow.
8.Dark theme is not properly applied over settings app.
9.Files app crashes when refreshing.
If you are reading this and thinking to update to Android Q Dev Preview. I would like to clarify that the OS is still in development and may get even worse with every update.
So, if you are not ready to use other phone as a backup do not update to Q.
Definitely facing all the above mentioned issues, in addition to Whatsapp being unable to restore backups from Google drive.
Anyways i made the mistake as installing this as my daily driver... Do you guys have any idea if it's possible to rollback even if there's no official support for that?

just saw it... "We are currently unable to support rollback to Android 9 Pie. We hope to have manual rollback support available by 16 May 2019. The website will be updated as soon as manual rollback is available." https://www.nokia.com/phones/en_int/developer/
Manual roll
Hey guys just wanted to let you know that Nokia update their dev website with a manual Rollback method

not sure no body yet started discussion on this.
Nevermind...
There is any changes in Beta 5 OTA build? Because when I flashed developer preview manually, there was a serious bug, if I touch fingerprint sensor device was stopped working only reboot is option, even if device is just locked and if I touch on fingerprint device stopped working, so I simply rolled back to pie
Recently installed Android 10 OTA build version 00WW_4_070 (directly from pie). I see a working option to unlock the bootloader under the developer options page. Any devs working on rooting and/or a custom rom?

I installed the ota update (v5) last night. I had faced the same issue regarding the fingerprint sensor after manual install. For the time being, I see that the phone is working well. But when I m receiving calls, I am not able to answer right away. The phone app is freezing or disappearing in the background.

Question Looking for feedback and thoughts on the ultra

Hoping I can get some feedback or comments on some questions I have on the 12s ultra which I own and plan on installing the EU ROM on it.
1. Is the EU ROM more relaxed when it comes to app permissions compared to the original Chinese one which is notorious about restricting app functions?
2. Is the eu/4-rom the only other RAM available to install on this phone, are there any planned custom versions coming out?
3. Are there any known developers in the XDA community that would be willing / interested to work on a custom ROM for this phone? I'd be willing to commission such a project as I've done numerous times for other phones I've had.

The EU ROM is based on the Chinese ROM of the same version but is far more user friendly. Pop over to their forum here and have a read. If you more info on their ROM itself or where to download the latest, take a look here.

1. Somewhat....I do find I need to go change some permissions manually on new apps sometimes. There is a great xposed module that removes the timer for changing admin and accessibility settings .
2. There are some other roms floating around that work on any generic android.
3. Naw, EU is probaly the best bet unless you wanna translate/convert a chinese rom.
Get Exposed with magisk and you can customize pretty well.
My only major complaint is google voice/assistant integration doesn't work well with lock screen.

Is there Android higher Android ROMs on Samsung Galaxy Young S6310?

That's my question basically.... I REALLY want a newer android than Lollipop (the highest android mod I found here). Is there? I found this webpage https://tweakdroid.com/lineage/samsung-galaxy-young-gt-s6310-royss/ that says it's possible, but they don't have the ROM available, so I'm skeptical. I really want a ROM like that to exist because I want to move back to my old phone, as I'm addicted to my current one, but I still want to be able to use WhatsApp and Google Maps.
Thanks for reading, and any help would be greatly appreciated!

The newest android version u can install is 4.4.4 kitkat, the lollipop download links are broken but i think there is a mirror avalible, tweakdroid is the fakest android rom site ever, they say u can install it (which u cant since of it low storage and ram amount) and they dont even give a download link.
This is so fake that when you copy the download link it shows
