[Q] Disable OTA? - LG G Flex 2

Hello all, it was stated in the G3 forum that you can disable OTA updates:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54254062&postcount=2
Putting 3845#*996# does not bring up the LG menu. Using Activities from a third party launcher leads to "app not installed."
Any ideas?

I found this video, which seems to work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUGOKsyb0I8
However, I do not know if this disables just the notification, or the LG service.

[Q] Call History/Dialer/Missed call Default Option not saved in kitkat 4.4

Hi, I am using Moto G 2014 running stock kitkat 4.4 OS
I have been facing the issue of Call History. Every Time I miss a Call and I click on the name/number- It asks me to select a default option of which way to open that entry. That is, through Third party dialer (DW contacts) or through History (stock). I tried selecting DW contacts and clicked on the "always use this option" but the same thing kept happening every time.
I contacted the Dialer dev and he says it is a bug of kitkat.
So, is there any xposed module or any other way to fix this issue? Help me out. This is my first post on XDA

How can I Disable OTA? (Which app/process to freeze)

I recently rooted my H950-11z, but I'm unsure of which app to freeze in Titanium Backup so that the OTA updates will be disabled. I've searched the forums and only found "disable OTA" but no mention of how.
Google search came up with some other ideas like the LG secret menu and disabling Google Services Framework but I'd like a definitive answer.
Thanks

Can anybody share how to disable OTA updates after rooting?
I have h955euro version . i have disabled ota.
Try freezing update center 4.40.112
I also froze software update 2.3.3.1
And app updates 4.40.112
If you have the same apps freeze them but you take the risk lol
Just go to settings/apps/ downloaded/google play services and disable notifications. It doesn't prevent the OTA to be downloaded, but you get rid of ota showing up on notification bar.
If you have the OTA notification in your notification drawer(pull down menu) you can simply touch that notification and hold down your finger for a second or two and it will allow you to disable the notifications by clicking the setting button that appears right there. Its the easiest way.
Screenshot attached so you can see what it looks like when you hold down your finger on the OTA notification.

Update android message

Hello guys, i have Android 5.1.1 and i keep getting the message telling me to update to android 6.0
The thing is that i don't want to update.
Is it any way to prevent this message to keeps appearing?
It's so annoying.
Hope anyone can help me!
Disable the Motorola apps that can be disabled. I think it might be the Motorola notify app. Going off memory because I haven't used stock for a while, but you can disable most of the Moto apps without root.
Simple buddy. Don't disable anything since you are on tock ROM it can break some functionalities.
What you have to do it restart(optional) your phone(its only to get you that update notification) or wait until next pop-up appears as soon as pop-up appears(not so much hurry BTW) press and hold that notification from the notification panel then it's up to you if you have to block the notification or disable the app which causes the notification to pop-up.
Press Thanks if it did helped...

The way that worked for me and a lot of others is by using an app called SD Maid to disable a service on your phone called Motorola Update Services.
Check out this thread over at AC..

That said, I did end up deciding to update to 6.0, and I have zero problems with it.

Security Notification after rooting phone...

Hello
I hope I'm putting this in the right forum, and please be aware that I'm a beginner.
I'm using a Samsung Galaxy 7. I replaced the recovery with TWRP and installed SuperSU. I only really wanted to delete all the bloatware on the phone, which I did and then disabled root access again in the SuperSU App.
However, I'm now getting constant security notifications. They say, "threat found" and "unauthorised actions have been detected. Restart your phone to undo these actions", with a big red "Restart" button. It also asks me to install "My Knox" and some Anti-Malware stuff. I suppose McAfee products, as it's all "powered by McAfee".
Do I need to be concerned with these notifications? If not, how do I stop them? If yes, how do I deal with them?
Thanks!
Is it coming in browser popups or in phone?If it is in phone try use an adblock.
It's a notification that's coming up on the actual phone.
Out of curiosity, why would an adblock fix that?
Thanks for your help.

Question Trun off additional step after facial recognition?

When I use facial recognition to unlock and app, after my face is recognized, before I can go into the app, I get a screen that is showing a message: "Verified. Tap confirm to continue". I am trying to get rid of that message and avoid the unnecessary extra step to press the confirm button before I can access the app. I am told by an app manufactured that it is a setting on my Samsung S22 Ultra with Android 12. But I am coming from an old Pixel phone and cannot find this setting on my new 22Ultra. Can someone direct me to the setting to turn off that extra step after facial recognition works? Thanks!
Sounds like you've installed some 3rd party app that does this. The default S22 behaviour doesn't show this message.
I can see you asked on other fourms, and they suggested things I was going to say. But it seems like some third party app is either doing this, or enforcing it.

Yes I posted on another forum but no solution there yet, just a few good suggestions that don't work. I don't have any other apps that enforce this behavior though. And I pressed support at RoboForm pretty hard about it and they insist it is not something in their app even though RoboForm is an app that it happens in. I am thinking it is when certain 3rd party apps are opened using face recognition, the Android system does not acknowledge those apps for some reason and pops up the message to do a 2nd confirmation before it will allow the apps to open. Thanks for the reply.
Have you tried unistalling Roboform to test if that fixes it?
I have found a few other apps that call up the exact same message so it is not just Roboform. I did uninstall and reinstall Roboform today for another reason and called up a health record app that does the same thing. It happened in the health app even with Roboform uninstalled.
I think we have determined that it is a system message. An app may call it up or trigger it when using face recognition but it is not generated by the app itself. If we knew what it was called then it would be easier to track it down. within Android or the Samsung settings. if it is even in the settings somewhere.
Yea, it's likely going to be a system message, that is called by certain apps in certain circumstances. But the only way you'll find it is to remove apps a few at a time until it stops appearing.
I get the same message and have looked everywhere for a setting. It doesn't exist. Pretty stupid behavior for sure.
Is there a solution? I have the same thing with Microsoft apps. So stupid..
Try: Settings, Biometrics and Security, Face Recognition, And untick: Stay on lockscreen until swipe.
For me, double tapping the screen or using the power button to wake the phone, triggers the face unlock which then quickly unlocks the phone with no other input.
Is this just one app, or all apps?
