Prevent OTA update to Android 10? - Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers

Is there any way to prevent a Galaxy S10e from from accepting the update? I just bought this phone from Verizon after my S5 was becoming really laggy after 5 years. My phone automatically downloaded the update, but I postponed it. I disable system auto updates under developer options and also under biometrics and security: other security settings: security policy updates. But I restarted my phone, and the update popped up and asked me to install now or later. I postponed it, but I'm afraid I won't be able to continue doing that. Any ideas?

Why don't you want to update to Android 10?

Various reasons. Is there a way to stop the update from happening once it's downloaded and in the "bug the user" loop?

I'd love to know this (prevent ota update) as well

SM-N915A AT&T 6.0 Update Fear! Please help!

Hey guys,
I have the SAMSUNG-SM-N915A model number and the stock version Build number LMY47X.N915AUCS2C017 Baseband version on my phone. It works like a charm after spending days trying other stock build version I found online that had so many problems restarting the phone over and over. AT&T is trying to force a software update to 6.0 on my phone which simply wont work as the regular software update bricks my phone for some reason. Is there a setting I'm missing the just tells the phone not to accept any software updates from AT&T? I'm almost positive this update will screw weeks of tinkering and I finally got it working with 5.1.1. I want it to stay this way. Any ideas?
Thanks

Go to settings/security.
You'll find the update settings in there IIRC.
closest thing I see too that is "security policy updates option which is already check off for automatic updates. It seems to be the Device management that's always trying to download the software update and force update. Is this a hidden stock application?

Sorry I took so long getting back.
It's been a while since my 5.1.1 days.
Check in the section that says about device.
You should find your updates on/off listed in there.
You might want to turn off the cloud sync'ing settings as well.

Nokia 6 (2017) march security patch update now released !!

Hi y'all
So kinda happy today, Nokia HMD Global sent out a new security update for the NOKIA 6 (2017) model.
Not a big surprise but glad they are sending out patches for the phone.
Wish they could fix the bug and the lag on the Android Pie software though.
FOR DEVELOPERS,
PLEASE CREATE A CUSTOM ROM FOR THIS PHONE.
FOR USERS,
IF ANYONE WANTS TO DOWNGRADE THEIR NOKIA 6 (2017) TO OREO CHECK MY PAGE
I started to install this update last night and my phone has been on the "Installing security update" screen ta the same progress since.
I've tried restarting with Volume+Up but it comes right back to this screen no matter what. It's not showing up in adb/fastboot list either.
Anyone else having this issue? Is there any way to see extra debug info/what it's stuck on, or just to cancel the update entirely for now. I have some accounts tied to google authenticator on this device so I'd rather not lose data if possible.
Hello, could someone share update archives for TA-1000 cuz I am not receiving OTA after Feb 2019 ?

Hi there,
I had the same issue, but never cancel an update when it is installing. You May or May not BRICK your device

Question OTA not working after CSC changed

Hi
I changed my CSC way before for activate native call recording feature.
But i just realized that i didnt get any OTA at all and this phrase that "your device is up to date" is totally non sense.
Would you please kindly help me out.
Most likely because it's a carrier update not a system update, most android updates are security patches anyway.
I would sleep over it, you don't need to update your device if it's working fast and nicely.

SM-G975U doesn't detect any update after the April 2021 Patch

I just got this phone, however I realized it was running on Android 11, not there recent Android 12 that came out. I checked and it's still saying it's updated but it isn't. The CSC code is TMK/TMK/VZW. The base version is G975USQU5GUCH, which is a Verizon/Comcast update. What should I do? The phone boots up with the Metro By T-Mobile logo, which is right but it doesn't receive updates.
Updates are patches for already installed Android, in your case Android 11. Updates get rolled out by OEM if they deem it necessary.
I have a small idea on what might be happening
The phone was using a software the carrier never used so when it became from what it was to TMK, they can't find updates to configure it. Is it possible to flash the next update with the correct CSC and it will configure it right?
Also the update screen is different
