First of all i want to clear up some things.
1. My phone is a A5 Smiley from Allview.
2. When i bought the phone i had Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean
3. The company Allview that made the phone, now has a Updating software campaign for all there phones. All phones are updated to 4.4.2 KitKat
4. I updated my phone.
5. I got unlimited mobile internet , no problems regarding internet traffic data.
Here is the problem on 4.2.2 i never had these notification " Data service is blocked " (that is the data internet trough the sim card, i got unlimited GB of internet) Problem is that now on 4.4.2 Kitkat i get that notification and i can`t remove it. The only way i remove it is to tun ON Data connection from the control panel. but if i do that my phone has non stop internet witch eats up the battery. If i turn it off i get that notification.
Is there any way to remove that notification? NOTE: i can`t uncheck notifications, they don`t allow me to disable it.
Thanks waiting for a response.

Hi Guys,
Installed the 4.3 update on my SIII a couple days ago - all was fine until today.
As soon as i am away from WiFi and on Data - my phone will display a 3G Symbol or H+ Symbol in the notification bar signifying the Mobile Data is connected - however none of the apps work or update I cannot use the internet or anything that needs data.
A restart of the phone kick starts the data for about 5mins and then back to normal.

Hey guys,
I need to enable the Android location access from my PC because I lost my phone (LG G2)..
I already searched for it while I had my alarm sound on the highest volume (with Google Device Manager), but had no luck.
In order to track the phones position I need to enable it from my PC, but I'm running out of time because the accu is dying soon.
I can still use Whatsapp Web, so mobile data is enabled, but it also says that I need to charge my phone soon..
Fast response is needed altough I don't think that it's possible.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: NVM, accu died, bye phone..
Hello guys,
The unthinkable has happened, I forgot my phone in a public place...
*The phone is a One PlusOne
*Running 5.1.1
*It's rooted
*Its not encrypted so theoretically someone could wipe the device bypassing the lock screen
*I know that no one has wiped it yet because I can remotely install apps via playstore and verify that they have been installed, meaning LTE is still enabled, and it has battery life.
*I have Android Device Manager installed
Here is the kicker, I habitually leave GPS disabled to lengthen battery life. I've remotely installed Cerberus to the phone but I'm not sure if there is any use trying with cerbus if I haven't launched or signed into cerberus on the device itself. I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas on how I can remotely activate my GPS? I'm running out of time before the battery dies or someone wipes the device. I have to either locate it or remotely clear the internal memory.
Thanks for any help guys.
Hi folks,
I was travelling in Western China recently and on the way out both the police took and immigration officials took my Galaxy S5 (unrooted) and had their way with it.
What I know:
- the police connected my phone to a wifi network and used an app called "mobile hunter", which seemed to be taking all the files off the phone (the screen on the device the police had said "retrieving x of 9xxx files")
- the immigration officials took down my lockscreen password and took the phone out of my sight for about an hour
- when I got the phone back from police there were 5 notifications saying APKs had been installed
- when I got the phone back from immigration there was one notification saying an APK had been installed
- the Samsung Internet app had been opened by the Police, but there was no browsing history
- the police took down my IMEI and SIM details
- my phone was connected to WiFi networks both times when I got it back.
Basically, I'm wondering what steps I should take before feeling like I can use my phone (relatively) securely again. Changing all passwords and flashing a new Android ROM sound like sensible steps, but are there any others? Or am I worrying too much?
Thanks
Hello
Firstly i want to wish you a merry christmas and a happy new year!
Then, the issue for which i need the help/advice of a specialist in android field:
Recently i bought a huawei P30 lite and from time to time i receive the EMUI update notification.
Well, to get rid of that i tried:
-to go to settings in the emui updater and disable the auto download over wifi option, disabling its permission to use phone and force stop it
-not to connect to WIFI and just use the mobile data (because i have a unlimited data traffic over 4G/LTE network)
-to use the network access option under data usage tab in wireless&networks to completely shut off the access to internet for software update as well as android os and some other associated apps
All of my attempts failed, still, from time to time the update popup is still showing on my screen.
My phone is bought new from a local computer&accessories store, so it doesn't "belong" to any carrier, my carrier is RDS&RCS S.A (and it does not have any "preferences" regarding phone software).
Why i don't want to update? Before i had a samsung galaxy J7 2017, initially it came with android 7.0 from factory, it worked perfectly until it received updates...android 8.1 then android 9.0, and despite regular maintenance it began to run slow and eating up battery faster than it did, while heating up sometimes without reason (sign of some memory&CPU intensive software after the update) same thing as i heard apple do to iphones and ipads to determine people to buy new devices every year. Also i'm not a smartphone enthusiast and i'm not interested in "exciting new features/exciting new look" updates can bring, i only use it as a phone and pocket PC.
How i can get rid of that without root?(my phone's in warranty and i don't want to void it)
Or at least can somebody explain me how the updater app access the internet with all the restrictions i've put in its way?(maybe there are associated processes i didn't blocked)
Thanks
