So, I've been having the same issues as other people that force updated there v10 to marshmallow (lg vpn has stopped working, uninstalling apps causes reboot, etc.) but i was wondering if there was at least a way to check unknown sources without going to the security tab in settings since the settings crash every time i open security settings. Does anyone know if this is possible?

Since being updated just today this evening I tried to re enable all the settings again for pro-version including the "keep notification" which should prompt for a notification access for 6.0 and above OS
however I dont see any prompts nor when I manually visit the settings there aren't any specified for Greenify,
anyone has this problem or has @oasisfeng altogether removed this?
Nevermind I have fixed it.. I disabled the wrong service for Greenify lol
[Q] Android 4.4.2, the security option "verify apps" keeps toggling itself on
I don't like a scan periodically scanning my apps in the background, so I wanted to turn it off, but even after toggling it off (in the main security page in the tablet's menu), it ends up toggling itself back on a few hours later without my consent. Is that a common issue?
I went on the google settings page as well and unticked the two options to verify apps and send analysis info, and the funny thing is that merely accessing that page without changing the settings (and when they are already unticked) will automatically toggle the "verify apps" setting in the main security menu on the tablet. Although even if I dont visit that page, leave them unticked there and have it unticked in the main security menu, it will still toggle itself back on a few hours later in the main security menu.
What's going on here? Is google pushing that option to be on at all time to scan your apps regardless of users choice?
Has no one heard or experienced this issue?
To the people reading this who are using Kitkat, does your "verify apps" in the general menu remains unticked for extended periods of time without ticking itself back on? If so, do you have the latest versions of google playstore and google services? (can you even use old versions of those anyway? mine seem to auto update despite me having auto update disabled in the play store)
Anyone has any idea what is causing my issue and how I could solve it?
I just noticed this happening to me. It seems that if I uncheck it, then run the play store app, "verify apps" is checked on again. I don't know how to keep it off.
Guys I have been getting random cell broadcast from every place of this city as I travel from home to other places after I installed nougat. As its a System App I cant force close the notification. So I just have selected Show notifications silently.
its really frustrating the notifications just keep coming there is no stop to this. its been a week now.!!
Is there anyway I can disable this from showing up or anything?
disable it.
settings-> applications->cell broadcast->disable
or
you can turn off through the (los) Messanger or google Messanger settings.
On LineageOS / Nougat, the customary "alert" settings have no effect, and there is no app called CellBroadcast-whatever.
Instead, it is now called "Mobile Broadcasts", and cannot be disabled via the standard System->Apps menu. However, you can remove SMS permissions from it, which might help.
Or one can also use TitaniumBackup to "Freeze" it (disable it completely without uninstalling).
Hi to all!
I have the Global Rom, as far as I know!
The phone is in original state, no unlocked boot, no root, no nothing!
Since it updated to the MIUI 10, I get a "malfunction" in the app update, whether it's thru the PlayStore or the MIUI's updating app.
When it senses Wi-Fi, the apps to be updated starts to loop between the "Downloading" and "Waiting" states, but none of them really starts the updating process.
And this is running in background, consuming the battery very rapidly!
In the PlayStore, I can stop the updating procedure, wait a few moments and click to update and then all goes well.
In the MIUI app, I can't do the same because, no matter how many times I click to stop, it doesn't and I can't kill the process.
The only way to stop it, is to shutdown the WiFi. But, as soon as I turn it on, resumes it's strange behaviour.
Would it be because I have a VPN connection always on?
Does anyone has the same problem?
As anyone solved it? How?
After digging a while, I've came to the following conclusions:
-the Xiaomi's update app, for their own apps, doesn't work with a VPN; I need to disconnect from the VPN and allow it to update on "normal" WiFi;
-the PlayStore does work, if I proceed like I've mention before;
Is this normal? Can I correct this privacy problem?

I´m not familiar at all with this kind of issues, I just think you could start;
- By checking your region from additional settings so miui has different policies for some of them and I guess the apps are slightly different for some countries.
- If your VPN has random locations then this doesn´t match with your region settings.
- Clearing cache and data in updater and downloader manager apps.
- Giving only permissions as your convenience to these two apps.
- Like last resort formatting data in stock recovery.
I updated to latest MIUI Global 11.0.8 and this annoying bug cycles itself. If I click settings, there's a new option at the top most suggesting "Finish Setting Up Your Device". If I click it it takes me to Android Setup where it suggests I connect to Wi-Fi to finish setup. I already am on Wi-Fi and it isn't doing anything.
This bug existed in the previous MIUI 11.0.6 but in that case it was just a notification after every reboot which would disappear if you clear recents or hide that notification.
In 11.0.8 there's a persistent option right at the top of the settings menu and there is no way to get rid of it.

In setting go to manage apps. Find android setup application and force stop it. You can also permanently disable it. Btw I didn't face this issue. So try using a different wifi. It might be due to improper data connection in wifi.

I've tried all that including clearing data.
None of it works.
