I have two K10 phones with T-Mobile and they both have system updates available. The message says "You can download this update over WiFi at any time. Otherwise, it will start downloading automatically between 10:00PM and 5:00 AM." I have WiFi on and connected (100% battery and plugged in) and go back to the Settings->About Phone->Update Center->System Updates page and there is no button or way to start the download and/or install. What am I missing? How do you download and install the update over WiFi? This happens with each update and I can't figure out how to manually start the update.
Thanks for any help!
Go to: Settings > About Phone > Update SW > 'Update of SW'. There you have available the options to manually update, disabling previously the auto-update,

Thank you.

The last screenshot is what you get when you tap on "system update"? If not then try tapping on it, or tap on three dot menu on screen from last screenshot if available or hold recents button if there isn't three dot menu.

Yes - The last screenshot is what I see when I click on "System Update". On either that screen or the one before it, there are no menu options with three dots or when I press and hold the recents button. There are no options to select there. Very strange that I don't have the option to get the download and install there.

I don't get it, they screwed something or we are doing something wrong. At least there should be options tu turn on/off checking for updates and for automatic installation. Try conntacting lg support, but I doubt that will bring any help.
I know...I don't get it either. There should be an option to download and install, but there is not. Alas, I will just let it process overnight but would be nice to know how not to have to wait on this device for the update.
The same thing happened to my girlfriend's K10, she said it automatically downloaded randomly a few days later so... I don't know, the phone is all screwed up.

Yes I know not to install the OTA update.
But here's my question...so there's this notification bar icon, you've all seen it. When I pull down the notification bar it says "System update is available. Tap to download the system update." You already knew this.
But here's the thing...I'm afraid to tap it. I'm hoping it will give me a confirmation dialog so I can refuse the update, but I'm not 100% sure and don't want to take the chance.
So extremely noobish question here, but what EXACTLY happens when I tap "tap to download the system update" - do I get any kind of an "are you sure?" confirmation prompt so I can say no?
If you have root explorer, you can go to /system/app/ and uninstall SprintUpdater.apk, reboot and the nag should be gone.
I don't have SprintUpdate.apk but I do have Updater.apk and Updater.odex. Should I delete Updater.apk? Any additional consequences I should be aware of?
Well I went to Menu, Settings, System Updates, HTC software update, unchecked the box, confirmed, rebooted...and the notification icon is gone.
Im still on KitKat and want to stay that way, but my N7 has automatically downloaded Lollipop and has the notification to install. How can I remove this notification, delete this update to free up space, and prevent it from happening again?
I know this must have been covered someplace else, but Ive spent the last 20 minutes searching and havent found a definitive answer....
Thanks!
I got this from some thread here.
Depends if you are rooted or not.
If rooted, you need to disable 3 receivers. To do so use one of the apps:
Autorun Manager, or
Autostarts (free in F-Droid).
The 3 receivers to disable :
service:com.google.android.gms.update.SystemUpdateService$Receiver
(this will run on boot competed).
com.google.android.gms.update.SystemUpdateService$ActiveReceiver-
(this will check for OTA on connectivity change).
com.google.android.gms.update.SystemUpdateService$SecretCodeReceiver
(this will check for OTA when your phone "handles" the secret code).
.........
If not rooted, I "think" you can go to
Settings / apps
Go to All tab
Select "Google Play Services" and unselect "show notifications".
This second method has some disadvantages but I don't remember what they are.
Hope this helps.
I'm in autostarts and seemingly have all of these disabled (I am rooted) as seen in the screenshot, but still getting the update notification (as also seen in the screenshot).
Thoughts?

Bump for an answer. Would like to know this too
I found this yesterday:
Download System Tuner, free from google play (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ccc71.pmw&hl=en)
Open App
Click Startups
Navigate to Google Play Services - If you do not see this in the list, press add in the bottom right hand quarter and navigate to it
press and hold over Google Play Services
Press Open
Press Details
Press Activities
Navigate to update.SystemUpdateActivity and uncheck it
restart phone
This did the trick for me. I am unsure whether this also removes other notifications from google, but it certainly got rid of the annoying "system update downloaded" notification.
Or better still if you are using xposed framework download the NotifyClean module. Let the Update System notification appear after a reboot and then select it in NotifyClean to get rid of it. Brilliant!

Unless I'm mistaken, all this is doing is hiding the notification. While that's great, the notification currently says "System update downloaded", so my assumption is space is being taken up by this download which I'd really like to clear up.
With the issues many have reported running Lollipop on the N7, I'm really surprised there isnt a common, well known process for this.
Then try my message #5 above.

Hi there
I enabled the developer options but then decided to turn them off again using the slider at the top, the problem however is that this turns off items that were already on when I enabled developer mode, such as 'Automatic system updates' and 'Always prompt when connecting to USB'. Clicking 'Restore default settings' doesn't actually seem to do anything so I'm worried I haven't re-enabled everything that might have already been turned on. I wonder if anyone is able to post screenshots of the developer options at their default state at all, or knows the default values?
Thanks
Cameron
When i open developer options i can see restore to default button. Can you also see this?

Cameron.. Just Do A Factory Reset..
I just got one of these from a friend of mine who did a factory reset on it before he gave it to me, and now it asks me to login to a previously used account. Unfortunately, he's terrible at remembering his login information, and he doesn't remember his password for the account he had on this anymore. He doesn't need it because he bought an IPad and doesn't use his google account anymore. So now it's stuck on the login screen. I've looked around and I couldn't find a way to bypass the FRP that I felt I could trust, or that seemed to apply to my device. I was wondering if anyone knew how I could do this?
Well, I didn't figure out how to get rid of the reset protection. But, I did get into the settings and was able to set up and use a guest account.
First get a SD card with an apk on it. I downloaded one from apkpure. Then when the device asks you to connect to a wireless network, check the Show advanced options box. Then in the Proxy settings drop down box, select Manual. And click on the Proxy hostname box to bring up the keyboard, and press the settings button on the keyboard that looks like a gear. From the keyboard settings menu you can click the mulit-window button on the bottom taskbar and can open two windows. Open the file manager in one of the windows. In the file manager click on your SD card and try to install the apk you put on it. When it prompts you that you need to allow Unknown sources in the settings, click on the settings button to open the settings window. (Do not check the allow Unknown sources box, if you check it, and the device resets or runs out of battery you'll have to go through this again, but when you click on the apk it won't prompt you to go to settings to allow unknown sources because they're already allowed.) Now just click on Users and switch to guest. There are some limitations to this mode, like not being able modify the wifi network (you'll have to switch back to the Owner account to change this).
I don't know if there's any way from the guest account to reset the account lock, but at least it's something.
I tried this and got as far as to the part where you said to "click the mulit-window button on the bottom taskbar."
That multi-window button is greyed out for me so I cannot click on it. LG must of patched it up or I am doing something incorrect.
Any other advise will be greatly appreciated!
It's possible it was patched out. They've been fixing little exploits with patches. This is the only way I was able to get any access to the device. All I can really recommend is to try everything. Check every menu, every option, and see if there is opening you can find to get access to the device.

Try this
I found a FRP bypass workaround if you are running 5.1.1 on a LG G Pad X 10.1 V930 AT&T model, not sure if all models are the same. It was FRP locked and all of the other bypass methods must have been patched. I was at the setup screen after a factory reset. I hope this helps.
1. Connect to wifi, then go back to start screen
2. Go to Accessibility > Vision > Enable Talkback
3. Go through the talkback training then draw an L to bring up the quick settings select Text to speech Settings (bottom right corner), afterwards you can disable Talkback by holding the power button and holding 2 fingers on the screen until it disables.
4. You will be in the settings app. Go to Users > Add user > User > Add user > Set up
5. You will be brought to a User setup screen select Next > It will pop up the wifi connection screen select next > You will be asked to sign into a Google account, sign into your Google account and proceed with the Google setup.
6. You will be brought to the homescreen. Go to settings > Users > And sign in as Owner.
7. Go to Settings > Factory data reset > Reset tablet. You can now factory reset and you will not be prompted to sign into a Google account.

Hi,
the Gmail app don't notify me when a new email arrives.
The notification only arrives when I start the app. If I close it, no notifications is sent to me.
I remove app gmail with xiamitool, reinstall gmail and delete data, but i have same problem.
In battery optimization setting gmail not show, is normally?
Miui 12.0.5.
Mine works, I'm using the default installation of Gmail, I removed some apps with ADB but not Gmail and I'm not rooted or anything. The only thing I've changed regarding the battery optimisation is for LastPass password manager

miui 12.0.5 EU ? or Global? initially worked for me too...
Look here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/gmail-no-notifications.4264415/
To disable Powersaving:
1. Open Settings from the Home Screen
2. Select Battery & Performance
3. Go to Settings (top right)
4. Select "App-Powersaving" (the last entry)
5. Choose "Show system apps" in the top right menu
6. Choose "Gmail" and "Google" one by one and set "no restrictions"
7. Reboot
This worked for me
