Hello all,
In need of your kind help. I'm unable to disable the Emergency Alerts messages on my unlocked A71 5G with a T-Mobile SIM.
I need to disable them because this is a phone I take to school and don't want to be in the middle of a class with the phone going crazy
with the different emergency alerts we get in Texas almost every single day.
I already tried to follow the online instructions for the specific phone and network:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
But when I get to it, the option is grayed out and won't let me turn it off:
What else do I need to do disable these alerts?
Thanks.

Thank you. I see several apps with those names will try the ones with best reviews.
This one works. Not on playwhore

The only NON-root solution that let’s you disable any unwanted packages that come pre-installed / installed with your phone / tablet.

It's nice because you can disable/enable on the fly. Helpful when troubleshooting. Can completely clear data including null marks that you can't clear in settings; it can repair some system apks that otherwise would require a factory reset because of this.
Has a interactive widget that lets you toggle on/off preselected apks. Low battery consumption.
It will run in safe mode so be a bit careful what you disable. I never had to do a factory reset because of this app but the only way to disable it is in Security under Device Admin Apps.
You can disable emergency alerts directly in Settings, not through notifications. Go to Settings -> Notifications -> Advanced Settings. Here, go into "Wireless Emergency Alerts" on the bottom of the page. You can directly disable and customize the alerts.
Thank you, my problem was that the phone was brand new an unused for almost a year so there were several updates missing to the OS and once the phone was up to date I had the option to disable the emergency alerts.
Thanks again.

This is pretty messed up. On airplane mode. Running greenify.

Yet your battery still looks to be very close to full (actually, it looks like it's full). 85.7% of jack squat is jack squat.
Point is it kept it awake the entire time I was in a movie with the phone on airplane mode.
Always in search for app updates!

Definitely needs to be an easier way to stop it.

can't just ''Force close at application list ? '' I've tried that one and my task manager did not saw it or just try to find some app blocker when airplane is for special profiles/modes etc. Did not get in deep enough to just understand but mostly as he said ''Finding all time updates'' when i do not use it, i just disable google updates and when i need then just simply enable them.
Hope this could help you !
Fyi - Maybe Some task killlers may do this the same while blacklisting them

just freeze it. you can use several apps to freeze google play and google play services. as for me my favorites are Link2SD and LuckyPatcher. everytime you have to go to the movies just quickly freeze it (and reboot if want to make sure).
I'm using my G4 on Straight Talk, with an AT&T compatible sim card. In LG's Messaging app, there's a persistent pop-up from AT&T Messages Backup & Sync that appears pretty much every time the app is opened:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
According to the FAQs linked to on the page, turning this off involves opening the app's settings, going to AT&T Messages Backup & Sync, and selecting "Stop Backup." However, this doesn't appear. All other solutions listed involve turning the service off in my AT&T account--which doesn't exist, because I'm on Straight Talk.
Has anyone found a way to get rid of this message? I'm running Marshmallow, so rooting, unfortunately, is not yet an option. Is there an MMI code to dial bringing up a menu with an option to set the registration for this service as complete, like there is for the AT&T Contacts messages? Or some other option altogether?
I know that I could use a third-party messaging app, but I haven't found one other than this that will automatically enable and disable my data connection to download MMS, which I've quickly gotten used to in the week or so since I've had this phone. If anyone has any suggestions as to something that does do this, I'm certainly open to trying it. Either way, any help is appreciated.
try using a different messaging app, Hangouts or Googles Messaging app, then after you set it up try wiping the stock messaging app. I use a different messaging app and when I go into the stock app and try to turn on AT&T Messages & Sync I get a window pop up that states I need to activate the stock app as default to use Messages &Sync.
Be sure to back up your messages first before you attempt anything, if you want to save your messages.
You can disable it in settings/apps and show system.
That worked! Thank you so much!
Thanks OP. Good ole XDA.
basically as the title says. mainly this is important as last pass needs it on and so does Kakao talk (for notifications!)
there are a tone of suggested solutions on google, but the setting menus for the main one (disable "app optimization") do not exist on the phone (Settings > Apps > Advanced Options > Ignore Optimizations)
the other, simply add it to "protected app" list, but this does not work! both when clearing the app tray and when rebooting the phone.
so, the question: WHAT THE ACTUAL [email protected]#$
there has to be a way to do this, phone specs are bellow. Please for the love of god help me!

Hi I have also experienced this exact same annoying problem and after hours of googling and frustration I didn't find a solution.
If anyone finds a solution please advise.
I am on GEM-703L B212 stock unrooted.
EDIT: I also tried the "Ignore App Optimization" and "Protected App" options and it didn't do anything.
Bump
same problem here, for some aps like macrodroid (needs2 one stays other is turing itself off), system2, some others
On anything B212 I don't have that issue anymore. If you're rooted try moving the app you're having trouble with from data/app to system/app, set the proper permissions and then restart your phone. I use the OnePlus Gestures app and without moving it to /system is always has issues and it turns itself off in accessibility.
Hi all!
I've been a real fan of the battery saving mode implemented into my Galaxy S8+..
However, It kind of lacks the ability to add more apps to the saving mode.
Is there any way I can add other apps to the saving mode, like UPSM manager does on the S5?
Thanks in advance!
Hi!
I've been searching all over the internet, but still couldn't find where the Power saving mode files are stored on the device. I did find out that installing apps as system apps will be available in the Maximum Power Saving mode.
Is there anyone who might have an idea of where I should go looking?
I think if it's this you are looking for. Try Settings, Device Management, Battery and then scroll all the way down. There you can add apps to force to sleep or not sleep. Don't know if it's this you are looking for.
you can convert your app to system app by titanium backup then you can use every app in UPSM.
Helloo still No apps for do this stuff in Nougat ?

Hello. You could it by this settings "Allow app white data server on" (Just put in in the search field in settings)

Use Link2SD or Titanium Backup, to convert normal apps into system apps, then they will be shown as useable in ultra power saving mode

found in android oreo
settings>apps>special access>allow app while data saver on. will display list of apps. just turn on apps you want to allow.
Not working
I have a rooted Galaxy A5-6 with Nougat (with Ultra Power Saving mode implementation similar to S6 and newer devices. I tried turning the apps to system app to get them working on UPSM, but unfortunately that didn't work. The UPSM manager doesn't work on my device and it is NOT possible to let apps in by using the special access section in settings>apps. The battery usage/ data restriction section didn't allow any new apps in UPSM but Viper4FX, installed from Magisk as System app could get access. Help (
I had recently tried parental controls in Redmi 4a and then also stopped the supervision and removed the respective application it installed. But after that, when I try to open WhatsApp it shows that "This action is disabled. Contact your organisation's administrator to find out more."
Screenshot :-

If I click on "More details" then "Device administration settings" opens and I had already disabled all of them ( Only 2 of them were enabled : Find My Device and Screen lock service ).
Screenshot :-
I had also restarted the phone multiple times and also deleted WhatsApp cache ( which maybe was completely irrelevant though ).
What should I do now?
App Lock? Folder Lock (available on Pleystore)?
If you have root then freezing wapp with sdmaid app will remove the wapp icon from the app drawer, once you need it back you can enable it using sdmaid and also after freezing wapp you can lock the sdmaid app using built in app lock feature. You can also simultaneously freeze an additional app called Contacts Storage when you are not using your phone so that no one can see your contacts even if they have access to your phone.

I hadn't used App lock or anything like that. The new problem I found is that if I clear data of MIUI Launcher from settings, in device administration settings, find my device and service lock service automatically get enabled.
And also it's not rooted.
