Does anyone know how I can disable the system update notifications? I recently received the notification for the latest update, but don't want to lose root. My tablet has a checkbox and I just uncheck, but can't seem to find one on the S3.
Bumping this in hopes that someone figured it out.
What network for clarification?

Sprint. There doesn't seem to be a setting to disable the system updates like there was on my old Evo.
I'd like to know too.
Which app controls the update notification, so I can freeze it?
Or can one modify build.prop and change the room build version to stop getting system update notification?
I've been able to "resolve" the notification issue by flashing the latest update of the rom you're using, but I really don't like having to do it so often just to avoid the update notification. It would be nice to get it turned off somehow--bump.
Assuming you're rooted, go into TiBu and filter for AT&T Software update (or insert the carrier you're on), then click the filter funnel.
The app to freeze will be right there for you to see, and....well, freeze.
I'm on AT&T so in my case the app is called: "AT&T Software update V3_1205_2_2"

I used Titanium Backup (TB) for this. Basically you are gonna wanna freeze the update app using TB. It is called "Software update v3_1205_1_3"
Or at least that is what they are called on my phone and ROM. They might have slightly different name on your device depending on the carrier, device variant, and ROM.
Hope this helps!
Great! Thanks for the suggestion.. Sprint's seems to be just "update", I've freezes it so hopefully that worked.
I noticed a few days ago that Facebook was no longer hibernating when I shut off my screen. It turns out that the option to ignore app state is no longer available, which I was using to hibernate apps like Facebook that always show up as working. Is there a reason for this? Because this option is not available, Greenify will no longer auto-hibernate Facebook. Currently running on a rooted Nexus 6P.

This feature is still available in Greenify and I used it yesterday.
Either Facebook or N6P should be the reason if it is not working for you. Most likely Facebook.

Are you running 2.8 beta 2? It was available on my phone as of a week ago, and the option isn't available for any apps, so it isn't my phone and it isn't Facebook. I recently switched to systemless root, could that be it?
For me is working fine (rooted+Xposed)

Yes, I am on 2.8 beta 2.
Some Apps are not comfortable with the root built into the ROM.
Try SuperSU.

I am using SuperSU, version 2.56 beta with systemless root. I'll try going back to regular root and I'll report on whether or not the ignore running state option comes back.
I'm an idiot. You have to manually hibernate a working app before it gives you the option to ignore running state permanently. Thanks for your help, everybody!
I am on 2.8.1 with root mode. I don't seem to find the manual hibernate option to ignore app state. I got this app that's abusing the state and shows "working" all the time.

Try the way described in the post above yours.
Any specific reason to stick with an older version? If not, update to the latest and then try.

I think that's the latest version. I have tried to select the app and click the hibernate button. It does stop the app immediately but doesn't mention anything about app state.

I just installed beta 4. Nothing changed other than getting a notification saying that the hibernation is postponed. I don't have xposed framework though. Could you please explain a little bit more about how you did it?

Xposed doesn't have anything to do with this option. I hope you are running it in root or boost mode.
You may not get this option on the App Analyzer screen. When you are on the main screen of Greenify and this app is shown as running, touch it to highlight it. Then click the Zzzz button or the three dot menu, then 'hibernate now'. You should get a dialogue box containing some warnings and also a checkbox within it. Tick the checkbox, then click OK. That is all.

Thanks, this is definitely something I have done in the past on a Samsung device. However, after I had migrated to Nexus 5x I lost this option. I just try to replicate the steps yet once again I don't get any prompt for app state. Sigh.
FYI, yes I am on root mode.

This option is not available for all apps. It is only available for certain apps, may be only those that are persistent.
Why don't you try this on another app and see whether you get the option? By the way, which app is giving you this issue?

It's an app named Alipay which is something like PayPal. What is the app that works for you? I might download it and see if I can trigger the option?

With NFC Service and UC Browser, I am able to use that option. I have not used it on other apps that I use.

EMUI updater keeps popping up randomly requesting to update (usually once in morning and once at night) even though I've turned off :
All permissions
All notifications
All data usage access
Advanced write system settings
I've done this for the following:
Software Updater
Phone Manager
Even though I force stop Software Updater, it starts up again after some time (and does the popup)
Have I missed anything?

You realize that's for firmware updates right. You want those. Especially to fix bugs that people claim exist.

Same boat my friend, except I tried the new pie update and it has terrible issues with Bluetooth so I rolled back to Oreo,I don't want it to update ever again but I really want those notifications to stop!
I contacted Huawei support, they were useless, I will send a letter of complaint and see if that helps at all.
In developer options....turn off automatic updates

Man that sucks =( I feel for you
Every time they roll out a new update I have to cancel update prompt and force stop the the app every time I plug in my USB to charge.
Eventually the prompt will stop coming after like a month of rejecting it - until a new update is released...

Yup, it might come to rooting, but I hate the issues that surround it with apps hating it, googlepay, some games etc. Handy if Huawei just gave people a leave me a lone option
how to block ota pixel 6 andoid 12 system update rooting with magisk?thank you
Developer Options>Automatic System Updates=Disable
But if you're rooted it shouldn't update anyway.

This does not prevent update notifications, and root does not prevent OTA updates. Now that Magisk has fixed the vbmeta/data wipe issue, blocking OTAs is no longer critical.
I'm not totally sure at what point the device typically auto updates anyway.

Yeah, I wasn't talking about update notifications, but actual updates which I believe is what the person was talking about. On all my Nexus' and Pixels (6 phones total and all rooted) I've never had a phone try to update with that setting disabled. In fact, that is what that setting is for, to stop your phone from automatically updating via OTA.
And usually if you are rooted an automatic update will fail.
Also, John removed the option in Magisk to be able to take OTAs while rooted in Sept. 2020 because it was bootlooping Pixels. Sideloading, of course, is a different story.

So how do I prevent those?
On my OP7 I simply froze the system updater in Titanium Backup, but on the Pixel I can't find anything like that. So how can we prevent the notifications, or do we simply not get them anyway if we're rooted?

Long press the notification, click the cog in the top right and then toggle off whatever notification section flashes up a few times.

No idea on the Pixel now but on the OP7 that didn't work since it was one of those "system, can't be disabled" notifications. That's why I froze it in TiBu

I did it on A11 on my Pixel 3a XL and brothers Pixel 4, so should work on A12 on the 6
Go and freeze system updates. And swipe the message but I think it should go with freezing updates. Use 3c toolbox or a root app manager
This method *should* work.
I just did it so I will edit this post in a few days.
Though I am on Pixel 5 and A11, should be the same methodology.
The above seems to be working. Haven't gotten anymore of the notifications.
I'm trying to downgrade my Phone app, which was possible on the Feb update. You could go into the app in settings and hit "uninstall updates". Is that feature just removed now? I don't see anything about it on the release notes.
I am still able to downgrade my phone app. You could probably download a older version of the app using this website or you might have already downgraded it.

Yeah, I had an .apk from there already but I can't install it over the top. It just says "failed" or "cannot install". There's a disable button in settings/apps but it's greyed out. I can do it with other system apps like Calculator and Calendar but not with Phone. I even had to reflash for an unrelated reason and it's still the same.
I did manage to get BCR working so it's ok-ish for now (BCR doesn't like the canary build of Magisk apparently). It's just that I wanted to use GoogleDiallerMod call recording without the recording notice. That needs a Phone version from December 2022.
that is odd... maybe it truely was removed in that update because im on december 2022 update and i have the unisntall updates for my phone app.
I guess you could find a work around if you rooted your device but I am not sure what the risks are for messing with the phone app on root

In settings-Apps-Phone, do you have the 3 dot menu in the top left? I still have it after the March update and it provides the "uninstall updates" option. I attached a screenshot

Ah! That's it. Problem solved. It used to always be the middle button but I guess they moved it up there. Cheers buddy
Also, for anyone looking for a call recorder, BCR works flawlessly. I've had bad experiences with a bunch of different apps/modules and this is the best by far. Only downside is it records every call (no switch). Compression is really good with the standard codec though and you can set it to delete after X days
