[Q] How-to DISABLE OTA UPDATE NOTIFICATION on android 4.4.4? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello. I tried Lollipop for a loooong time and now I'm sick and tired. I downgraded to 4.4.4 but I have a persistent notification in the status bar saying that the new system update to android 5.0.1 is available. But I don't want it!
Is there a way to disable that notification? It is very anoying. I tried to download FOTAkill.apk and put it in system/apps with rw--r-r- permissions but doesn't work.
I know that the simplest solution is to install a custom rom but I am very happy with stock rooted + xposed + modules.
I will be very happy if one of you have a solution!
Thank you!

But this will block ALL notifications. Isn't it?

Install Autostarts, disable all systemupdateservice receivers, reboot. Should be good to go at that point.

No. You can disable only ongoing notification. So, when you get system update notification, go to GB>ongoing notifications and block present one.

Thanks both of you! Both solutions works. I used GravityBox for the moment because it's the simplest one.
Thank you guys! :good:

Did you purchase Autostarts or sideload it? We don't approve piracy here.
BTW - With my sons here, we didn't get who is that football player and whos dress hi is wearing in your avatar?

The second one, but GB it's simples, fastest and I don't need to install other stuff.
Tell your sons that some years before Messi and C.Ronaldo there was another Legend, named Alessandro Del Piero He was the captain of my favourite football team (Juventus) from 1993 to 2013

We thought that this is Del Piero. But it is small picture and we were not sure. No need to explain this to my kinds. The older one allready got his outfit, but its one with white and black stripes.

Don't "block" or disable the notification, kill the receivers responsible for it or you WILL get wakelocked to death. Goodbye battery.
There's already a thread on XDA how to properly do this. Search next time.

Thank you man!

I'm in the exact same boat. I found that actually click on on the .apk file, and installing the app did something. I think it might be "working". But that means that while the update icon isn't in the top bar, it's still in the pull down menu. I still see it all the time! Any help would be terrific.

I froze the update file

This works for tmobile s4 & s3 to stop ota!!!
Sept 19th, 2015 2:30am Las Vegas, NV.
What I just did was get my device storage down to .667MB, turned my WiFi back on and it's not trying anything with the OTA lollipop update so it may be a bandaid but it gives me back my WiFi. Unchecking theSU "update automatically" does ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO STOP IT! I TURNED OFF/FORCE STOPPED SU, KNOX, WFUpdates, Everything.... Carrier pushes it thru anyway. So it says its downloaded but it's got no place to go. For now that's good enough for me! My phone still says 4.4.4. & the update is in top left corner doing nothing.
WON'T LET ME SHOW SCREENSHOTS SO... all I did was literally copy EVERYHING from my SD card to my download file on device until I got down to .667MB ALL on my data plan only! Do NOT do this over WiFi or the update will come thru. Took about 2hrs lots of videos but the end result it worth it. It can't update because there's no room to & so far it's not trying to delete old files to make room (knock on wood), so for now maybe this can help anybody else who does not want Lollipop to destroy my s3 & s4.

Samsung App Store and Notifications

I have one notification on the Samsung App Store icon, I launch it, I log in, the notification is there as well (on the little man at top-right), I click on the little man with notification, but all apps are updated, so don't understand what he's trying to notify me

After installation of the update, the notification is gone . . .
It is annoying. I used titanium back up to disable this samsung application. I am not hi on Samsung applications.

That's weird, I just updated Polaris and Photoshop Touch and both notifications are gone for me.
It must be one of the apps that Samsung has included with the note and will probably be a process of elimination until you find which one it is or someone else points it out. The reasons the pop-up's are there are probably because these apps were not downloaded and came pre-installed and therefore not showing as needing updates.

Facebook are at it again. Never trust those f...ers

Ok so I bought a Note 4 used. All is good with the phone. It's on Marshmallow 6.1 (who cares)
Now I've rooted the phone and it's all good ... but .... oh yeah. "facebook scum of the earth" have now several apps (3) on 6.1 yup AND I cannot remove them !!!!
F. No. I'm rooted. I'm running Titanium Pro and still that isth comes back, time and again. These barstewards are circumventing Play Store. No matter if you're set to "do not update apps) it just keeps coming back. I've tried to nuke this **** 3 times now. I had to do a restore from TWRP every time. If you shut them down they come alive again.
I detest FB and all the rapc they stand for and trouble they cause. I want that s/w off my phone but how do I go about that? I've always relied on Titanium. Not this time.
So what now? I even tried to take a screen-shot but got a security notice "telling me that screen-shot WASN'T ALLOWED. what the duck- in - hell is going on.?
The gaul of these people. What ever happened to out privacy?
If I can't nuke these apps, I'll need to find an earlier ROM from 5.....?
Any brains out there much appreciated helping me ****e on these dickheads!
Thank you
sounds like bloatware from your provider not fb
can you delete from system/app or systrm/privapp ?

First off learn to do this yourself
Titanium and other apps are a crutch..
You can never be sure it's done right unless you do it your self.
Get the oem image for your Rom
Learn how to open it up and remove or add things
(That how custom Rom masters do things)
Remove what you want and flash away..
Or find a debloated version of your Rom and flash that.
And understand.
As time goes on Google, samsung and everyone else are trying to find ways to stop you from changing things on your phone..
They make money from it..
(And they get less support calls about problems from noobs who mess up their phones)
One day.. You will just be stuck with it.
this is good apk may help
try this app
create a blank app with the same package name, then facebook won't be able to update it due to unconsistent certificates
Thanks all. I don't currently have an OS so I can't install anything. No matter how long I let the phone sit it does nothing. Somehow I feel like the phone is not wiped completely as I thought it would be using TWRP (twerp) I'm guessing this is why I can't simply replace an image twerp made for me.
I've tried to use Kies to re-install a basic OS but it had a heart attack and its toes curled up and it died RIP Kies!
Ideas?
Well, I thought I'd update this thread. I got a copy of Lineage 14.1 and a copy of Gapps Nano 7.1 and flashed the pair of them.
WoW finally someting that works .....? NOT
Sadly everything works but the phone bit. uckf, it never ends! Whatscrapp, Viber & Skype the screen goes black and I've no control. The regular phone is black screen too but works bi-directional. Whatscrapp just calls yet no voice transfer either way. Viber & Skype connect with voice both ways but the screen is black no control, no soft keys or home button. WTF is going on?
ANY help would be much appreciated. It not my settings as far as I can tell. Everything else on the entire phone works. Well except the pen bit, not that I'm bothered about that.
I've a Note3 and I can say, that Whatscrapp will not do voice just like the Note4. Note3 did WA voice a loooong time ago but packed up never to return. All the rest of WA works though. I can't help wondering what WA hooks onto to make voice because it'll ring and I can be called but that is where the fun stops. Seems the world has forgotten just how robust Skype really is with Viber being a gillion time better than WA WA sadly rules for now.
Ideas anyone?
Cheers
No takers on this? Where do I go for xpert help? Please advise. Thanks
stock ,stock ,stock rom install
Yeah but I can't find stock. That's the problem. Sam Mobile are all corrupt. Is there alternative sites?

Oukitel WP7 General Discussion

Greetings to all.
So we have a well-developed topic by model Oukitel WP6:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/oukitel-wp6-discussion-t4112963
but we don't have a topic by model Oukitel WP7 at all, although this phone has similar problems in the firmware - unloading applications from memory by firmware, non-delivery of notifications, etc. I would like to know if it is possible to install an alternative firmware on this model, and how to do it.
Thanks.

If you can unlock the bootloader then I think it's as easy as flashing the GSI using the same method in wp6

It's not the problem with the phone, it's the users . This phone has some hardcore security settings turned on by default. If You configure it properly it will work like any other. For example let's say You want Messenger app always ready to receive new messages. First enable notifications in phone settings then go to the Phone manager app(big shield icon) and to its setting, add messenger to the white list so it wont be killed on lockscreen, also enable autorun for it so it can work all the time.
I'm totally fine with the way it works, it's easier for me to grant the notifications to few important apps than to disable it on all the garbage like shopping apps or games.
Hi. I am interested in this phone. It works fine? Any problem?
Enviado desde mi MI 8 mediante Tapatalk
What i did
This is a very interesting phone model.
Currently done and fixed:
- Received root on both official firmware, on v16 and v29 (Magisk, pathing boot.img)
- fixed destruction of applications from memory, thanks to instructions from the topic about Oukitel WP6
That, so far, I could not win:
- Forced disabling of notifications from applications when updating from Google Play and another, I do not know how to deal with this.
The latter is very annoying, since you have to follow each update and re-enable notifications.
Perhaps, under the root of the rights, just edit some file to fix this?

Yes, I did everything, and even more, I was able to overcome the disconnection of wi-fi and bluetooth with a long inactivity.
You're right about the user.
But can you tell me.
How to prevent notifications from turning off when apps are updated in Google Play?

do you mean some apps force close and you won't get notifications when your phone goes off? if that's the case then just TURN OFF the "intelligent power saving" in the settings or from SYSTEM MANAGER APP. if it still kill your background apps then you might need to uninstall the duraspeed app on your phone if it's installed.

Thanks for your reply.
I went through the indicated stages and I got rid of the problem described by you.
I did not delete the DuraSpeed, but turned it off through the ADB and the MacroDroid.
But I mean a completely different problem.
Let's say I install the Viber or Slack application, after installing from Google Play, notifications are turned off by default. OK. I enable them in my notification settings. After a while, these applications are updated, and notifications are disabled in the settings again.
This is the problem I mean.
Hello every body,
There is a built in app named DURASPEED. Open the app third party file explorer and then you can leave the app stay on backround Like message,whatsapp, email and so on that they dont got killed.
Then phone is just awesome
Okey, i see you are allready found that app. Next time need to read more

Volunteers are needed to check the file.
I'm ported from the BV9900 TWRP 3.3.1 in unofficialtwrp.com
It works for me, I think the community will also be useful.

Its not workin
No adb, no usb connect. Can not transfer file via computer to Phone.
Can not mount data & system. If you want them mounted you need to format all but then you can't get any file there.
Maybe if i but sdcard in and try that way. But no time to test today.
Can you used it normal, like it supposed?
I try to flash gsi, but that also doesn't work. Without twrp of course.

I apologize for the inaccuracy of the wording and wrote that it works, although in fact it just started, loaded, but the functionality is cut down.
The problem is in the mapping and I need several diligent hours to fix it and update it for us.

I'm wondering, since I started, I achieved some success, in the new version the zip installation works from a connected external flash drive, and I download several dozen de-encrypting modifications, maybe over the weekend it will turn out to sort out and bring the idea to the end, cleaned up the extra ways and made the ADB work in this mode, maybe over the weekend it remains to decipher and then it will be ready for the test.

Who has already tried it, does it work?
Good afternoon,
Problem when adding ringtone to OPPO Watch. If you add them to the /sdcard/Ringtones/ category and after restarting the watch, they are displayed in the "Settings-Sound-Ringtone of the watch". The ringtone can be listened to and selected as a ringtone. However, during a test call to the clock, instead of the ringtone, a system sound similar to the sound of an error plays. And if you make a test call through "Find a device", then the ringtone works.
I tried to add a ringtone via ADB to the root of the system, where the standard ringtones are located. But, when copying, it gives an error. Through the file manager, when copying, the ringtone is not saved. Perhaps this is due to the restriction of rights. You need root rights.
Please tell me someone was able to deal with this problem?
Thank you!
After Samsung Watch 4 classic & Watch 4 Pro got the latest firmware update .Samsung locked many things.Like earlier one can add custom ringtones & notifications. But now one cannot at all.No matter what you do you can't set or add a custom ringtone or notifications. (BUT)

Question Google Messages notifications icon

So I just purchased a pro and coming from a 6a. I noticed when I switch to the 7 pro the notification icon was different. It was updated to look like the new app icon. I had to reset my phone and when I reset the notification icon went back to it's regular thing lol how can I get it back? Does anybody know what I'm talking about or do I just sound crazy lol please help. 🥹
current icon on the left
i want the notification icon on the right lol
Currently, you just sound crazy haha. But the notification icon should always appear to match the new app icon. If yours isn't after a drive reset, just give it time and it should correct itself automatically (maybe after a day or two).

Ehh, just give it some time. Whenever I do a full wipe before flashing a new update to my phone, certain features just aren't available for an unknown amount of days. For example, some of the Google Phone features don't show up for a week or two. And once they do show up, they only seem to roll in one feature at a time lol.
This delayed feature rollout after a wipe and fresh OS installation seems to be the current Google Mystery lol

No problem. If it never changes over in another week, feel free to reply to one of my comments and I can help ya out. You MIGHT need to do another wipe and OS reinstallation (which I can also help you with, if necessary) if the notification icon just refuses to change after more time passes.
We'll see what happens =D

And no worries. A complete wipe, reinstallation, setup and root access usually doesn't take longer than 10 minutes lol. But, I suppose it may seem like a lot of work to people less nerdy than me, haha.
What is the version of the app?

10 minutes? In what universe? You cannot be serious! A few years ago it would take several hours for a factory reset/new setup! I'm assuming you mean "factory reset" when you say complete wipe???
Today I can do everything in maybe...MAYBE 2 or 3 hours but 10 minutes??? No way! You gotta be joking.

You have an old version of the application, update it or install it manually.

APK version shouldn't matter. I have the exact same build as you and don't have the issue that you are facing.
For what I use my phone for (basic phone functions, internet, YouTube) I don't think it's worth the risk of pushing something through unofficially - as a user uploaded APK could
always be slightly modified in some way.
*Edit* - And you also have the latest build of the app, haha. We're on the beta build - which may have been confusing my man Stano.
*Edit 2.0* - @jaseman I mean flashing the entire OS from the most up-to-date factory image via fastboot - which does indeed wipe the user partition of the drive unless you choose to modify the default flash-all document or choose to do it all manually without wiping that drive partition. But regardless of which method you choose, it still only takes me around 10 minutes to do all of that, restore my data and to grant myself root access again.

Máš pravdu, pomýlil som si dátum vydania. Myslela som, že aplikácia je od 6. mesiaca.
Mod translation: You're right, I got the release date wrong. I thought the application was from the 6th month.
