Question How do I block the "Install update to keep device secure" message from popping up every single day? - Google Pixel 6 Pro

I have the device rooted, Magisk (Zygisk) running. I'm not looking to re-flash or update, just want to get rid of this message from popping up. How do I completely disable this message? Is there firewall settings? Build.prop?
Thanks,

When this has been asked before in the last three weeks in this section since Android 13 came out, I don't think anyone suggested a solid definitely working answer. My answer, I doubt if you can make it go away, and I doubt if you can keep from installing it for very long.

Have you tried disabling the "Automatic system update" setting in the Developer options menu?
I never usually see these messages, however, I usually manually update my device within the first two weeks of a new update dropping. However, I may surpass that time frame this time around due to numerous family events. Therefore, I will let you know if I end up seeing this message pop-up on my device in the near future.

What method did you use to update to the current build you are on?

Wouldn't the update fail to install if you are rooted?

That is indeed what used to happen.
There have been several reliable reports that those who were rooted on Android 12 Stable got the OTA for Android 13 Stable (even though they had automatic download of OTAs disabled in Developer options), and that the 13 Stable OTA did install successfully. Of course, it overwrote the rooted kernel/boot.img, so it wasn't rooted until they manually Magisk'd the boot.img from the (full) factory image zip and flashed it.
I can also confirm that on my own phone before 13 Stable came out, it wanted to install the tiny second July OTA even though again, I had automatic download of OTAs disabled. I just never rebooted until Android 13 Stable came out, which I manually flashed. I have no idea if that second July OTA would've successfully installed as well.
In some ways, being able to take the OTA officially may make it easier to update for some users, as long as it happens at a time you're comfortable installing the new rooted boot.img. But it's not cool about it ignoring the automatic download of OTAs switch. For the OTA to Android 13 Stable, it was reasonably understandable, in my opinion, since the bootloader vulnerability on Android 12 Stable was big enough to warrant that.
We have no idea at this point if all OTAs will successfully install over a rooted Stable firmware, or if any future OTAs will ignore the automatic download switch.

If I click download it just dismisses the message and does nothing. I do have the "Automatic system update" disabled in the developer menu. The current ROM on the phone is an official one I downloaded, patched with Magisk, and flashed.
I'm not looking to update every month, just want to get rid of this annoying popup and update when I see an update I want.

I tried the "Disable Application [ROOT]" app from the app store. You have to pay something like $3 to buy it, once.
It was a very tedious process, but I tapped on "Google Play services" in that app and scrolled through the very long lists of "Activities", "Services", "Receivers", "Providers" and unchecked anything that had an identifier that looked like it was related to system updates. e.g. "something.something.SystemUpdate".
I haven't seen this update message in 4 days, so that seems promising. It wasn't exactly a quick fix, though.

Help! Push notifications work half the time with certain apps

Issue after 4.3 Auto Upgrade:
I have looked through many, many questions on this forum group relative to push notifications but most do not have an answer (or reply). I had learned that developers must update their apps to comply to 4.3 notification process that is part of 4.3 (POS). Is that my problem? I don't know.
I have tried 10 different reminder apps that notify me of events I have created that repeat, are persistent and stick to the notification drawer, but rarely, if even do. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. Other apps have similar behavior: one message comes through and 5 after will not. I am baffled.
I am rooted: Odin 3.09 root66 tar
Samsung Galaxy S III LTE
Any help is greatly appreciated. I do NOT have the funds to get a new phone and am stuck with the S3. Thank you in advance.
After doing tons of research on the push notifications, I have installed DynamicNotifications, removed any other lock screen app, customized DynamicNotifications and hopefully this will do the trick. So for anyone coming to this forum about 4.3 and push notifications issues .. take heed that you won't get a reply but try DynamicNotifications and uninstall any app you have that uses a lock screen. I was using CM Locker. DynamicNotifications has a built-in lock screen. You can read about the app in the Market/Play Store. I would also recommend watching a few YT vids on DynamicNotifications.
This app will help as well:

Could the notification problem be related to your rooted ROM? I'm not sure.

Of course its from 2013. I am on o/s 4.3. That is when all the push notifications began to disappear. This is the reason:

I am using PNF (root), DynamicNotifications, have checked the TCP timeout, and everything inbetween. Will have to do a factory reset next, but I've read that didn't help at all.
"In a nutshell, Google’s push notifications service work by making a connection on TCP port 5228 between the phone and Google servers."
The latest T-mobile NF4 ROM came out in October, 2014. You could move to a custom Lollipop ROM to see if that solves the issue.
The fact that the Root66 ROM is rooted may have something to do with the push notifications.
Looks like the solution may require changing TCP time outs on a wifi router.
Unfortunately, my Netgear genie does not allow for TCP parameter changes.
I will try a ROM change next but I cannot even tell you how many hours I have invested in this device since it auto upgraded to 4.3 - ridiculous.

have you tried a stock rom without root to see what happens?
I haven't. What steps would I need to take knowing I have root66? Speak in noob, audit

Download the latest rom from sammobile.com and use Odin to flash it.
Did you use Odin to flash root66?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1949687
I did.
In another thread you had sent me a link for firmware for my device. I've attached the screenshot.
So I really don't want to brick my phone Are you thinking I should find a new ROM, install with Odin, or revert back to stock? I am lost on what to do now.

How did the phone get an ota update if it was rooted?

6.0 Update is out!!!!!!!!

See the title. I just checked for update and got it. Haven't installed yet. Its close to a 1 gb download.
I just got it as well. I don't want to download it yet though. I'll wait for a KDZ and rooted system.img

You may be waiting a while. The Lollipop exploit won't work with Marshmallow since MM root requires a modified boot image. Since the Vz bootloader is locked, there is no way to do this.
To anyone wanting to keep root, don't upgrade to 6.0 until the bootloader is unlocked.

I'll take rooted Lollipop over unrooted 6.0 then I guess.

You may be able to go into settings, then applications, all, and find settings app and clear the cache/data on it and try again.
I updated and my phone has been stuck on the red Verizon screen for the past half an hour is this normal?
Updated and my phone would just shut off while the screen is off. Not sure if there's a rogue app or what. I'd hate to do a factory reset.
Correction, it doesn't shut it off but it would take me multiple times to hit the power button to wake up the phone.
Downloading now.....
Anyone successfully update yet? I'm downloading now.
Thanks for the heads up. I just blocked the updater. I'll wait for the reviews to filter in before deciding to give up root.

Update downloads, phone restarts, installation reaches about 4%, then a error pops up. The phone then restarts with a message in the notification center that the update has failed. Curiously, in the System updates menu, it shows:
LAST SYSTEM UPDATE:
Software not updated to 24C
Failed - February 16, 2016 at xxxxxx
Error code: 402

Thanks for the update. I got impatient and went for it... at 34% of 2/2. Will update when complete/failed/bricked/smashed.
EDIT: Update went smoothly and quickly. I've been on Marshmallow all of 2 mins so we'll see...
had an issue with mms not sending, performing a factory reset, i'll keep you guys posted
My update failed, even tho I unfroze everything. I did not unroot.
i think it was the photo, not the fact that i reset it, but mms is working fine. also the phone seems to be very fast.

Hello guys, I am having trouble on my Zuk Z2: I switched it on this morning and I got notified that a software update is available. I tried to download it several times but the phone always failed to do that and a message appeared stating that I wasn't connected to the internet, while on the contrary I am regularly connected to my Wi-Fi network and I am able to surf the web and receive all notifications normally. I tried rebooting the phone and also switching wifi off and then back on but nothing changed. Any suggestions?

This happens to a lot of us...
Maybe this helps...
If you go to Settings -> Advanced Settings -> Applications and then Locate Sys Upd
Force Stop the Application and Clear Data
After that go to updates and check for new updates now it should be showing your latest update.
I do not know if it resolves the original problem with No Internet Connection, Download failed issue. Maybe someone could try this option first as I updated manually allready.
Let me know if it helps. Cant promise. I updated manually.

Hi,
Sorry to refer to this old post. Having problems trying to update apps on my wife's Z2 and checking if it's the problem with lack of OTA (as it's still on v. 1.9.044!). Following your suggestion, I can't even find System Update in the Application list as per screenshot link below! Hope I can get some advice here.

Man, System updates are in Settings.
1.9.044 - pretty old.
You can update it to 2.5.412 (China) or 2.5.104 (India) via QFIL.
Thanks Sergsinger,
I am away and don't have access to my wife's phone but am almost sure System Update is not under either Settings or Advance Settings on her Z2. Even after activating Developer Option with multi-taps
Hope I am wrong of course. Will check when I get back next week.
Didn't think I would miss the System Update in my wife's Settings menu if it was there. Please see my screenshot. Just above 'About' is 'Camera'. Hence hope someone could advise at v. 1.9.044 ST level.

I haven't found any posts about this yet, not through T-MOBILE anyways. As you can see, I'm connected through my home wifi but I don't have an option to download anything? I'd rather it not update around 11pm - 4am as I have to be up for work at 5am and my phone is my only alarm. Is it downloading in the background through wifi and then I get the option to install when it's done or what? I've tried updating through LG bridge and there's no updates through that (Lg bridge updated to latest version as well.)
Anyone else getting this?
Just checked, I can confirm it.

@CuhThooLoo @Vesnik what's the build no.?
Damn I just checked it for the hell of it and seen the update.....but unfortunately no longer have a PC so I can't go back to stock to take it
it must be 7.0 .....
i will wait for the flashable stock 20a rom or rooted tot files come out
Awesome. Nice surprise. I'm downloading it now!
Yeah the 12am trick worked. Downloading now.
anyone know where the update.zip downloads to? I have TWRP so was hoping to flash in there.

I tried but when it booted to TWRP I couldn't find the .zip. It wasn't in /cache like I was expecting.
I would wait it out a bit, with the anti rollback and unknown root ability it just seems like a leap to unknown ground. They (LG/Tmo) haven't locked it yet but could at any point.
I see it is ready, but can't download

Ah I see. You must change the date on the phone, not the update message.
Has the update improved camera performance at all? Does it snap any faster?
I will wait for root before making the jump. Any news on what(if anything) changed on the g5 specifically? Anything added or improved?
Anyone not seeing the update keep checking for update again and again .. i think it started showing for me after 10 attempts or so, then i toggled auto time off and changed the time to 2355 hrs = 11:55 pm now its downloading .. i did hear about some things breaking like wifi .. Fingers crossed will update soon ...
Update 1 - it was downloaded several times on my phone but after clicking restart and install, it suddenly goes back to showing "Your System is up to date, last checked xy:zv pm
Update 2 Seems you really need the battery to be 100%, leaving the phone plugged in wont help unless battery is 100%, i dont think it is a smart requirement, but it is what it is..the phone is updating now lets see...
Update 3 It has updated, dont see much changes, camera got nothing that i can say is improved, theming is a bit more complete with not of things going dark when you choose dark themes ... notifications still have white background, an eye sore...

I can't find the source but I've read that this is the cause. I would update if you haven't and see if the drain ceases.
I need a bit of help here. I "unrooted" via the Super SU app. Rebooted, tried to update. Still failed. I also have lost root. Super annoying. Is there anything else that the updater is expecting that i haven't restored???

You both need to download the full factory image. Then edit the flashall.bat file and remove the -w to save data and apps. That will flash everything except data and apps.
Then re TWRP and re root.

So i finally got around to doing this today. Removed the -w from the flash-all.bat. it wiped the device anyway:
Also, search for updates, says it's up to date already with security patch level: December 5, 2016. Clearly this isn't the case. So frustrating..

Are there any good roms that do away with this auto update garbage?

January 5th is the latest update, you're still one update behind. Any ROM will do away with the OTAs. The 2 most popular out right now are Dirty Unicorns and PureNexus. I ran both on my 6P and while very different, both are top notch with awesome developers. I'm still somewhat convinced it's a background OTA process since you're not on the newest patch. Also go to settings-google and make sure nothing is stuck trying to sync in the background. If it has completed all checked syncs, it will have a time stamp.
