Anyone knows how to disable software update on EU pie?
It keeps popping up every now and then, and asks me to agree to this license conditions that are very sketchy (sending data to third parties)
I want none of that, and rather update the LG apps manually if needed (I dont use any of them)
PS: I'm rooted btw
thanks
It is actually there, disabling update checking. It's under Settings > System. See attached

He can also freeze the software update files in Titanium Backup.

This didn't work. I'm guessing outs for the full software update rather than apps

Freezing would probably modify /system. Possibly losing safety net.
I'm using the debloat Magisk module. I just can't find the path. The app should be com.lge.updatecenter

I didn't say REMOVE. I said freeze in Titanium Backup.
You even quoted me, so come on.
Titanium Backup has been a must have for years. It's one of the reasons I root my phone. Not just back backups or even protected backups of certain versions of apps I do not want to lose, but the ability to freeze system apps so you are NOT removing them.
Freezing in Titanium Backup does not modify the system. I don't know why a debloat Magisk module even exists since we have Titanium Backup.
Never said remove. You even quoted me
Do you know how titanium backup freezes? I don't

Freezing apps in Titanium Backup doesn't modify the system. In fact when the debloat Magisk module was even suggested, people asked WHY since we already have Titanium Backup.

But wouldn't it be much more easier to use Titanium Backup? You could select the (system-)apps (use filter), you want to freeze (yes, freeze. Otherwise, the concept of working systemlessly would not make sense), create a label for that and then select the corresponding batch-task, reboot and ready...

Titanium Backup has been around for years and NO freezing apps doesn't cause Safety Net loss. You can also totally REMOVE apps via Titanium Backup, but that's not what I suggested as that would modify the system.
I never get notified on updating full software with check and auto update toggles being turned off. But when it comes to LG Apps there is further setting to turn off notification completely (i/o daily, weekly, ...) In app updates, 3 dots --> settings --> notification interval

Uninstall removes the application completely. Freezing however simply renames it to something else that way the program/process/app can't be used. Also, in the event that you need to update, you can simply go back and rename the original file back to it's original extension as some critical system apks are required for updates in certain phones.

I thought freezing meant re-nicing that process to some special state, when kernel doesn't designate any CPU cycles to it, yet it still hangs in memory.

You may be correct, I have no idea. Basing from the context in this thread however, I'm nearly certain in this specific case however, what he means by freezing is what I stated.
Different definitions for different things.
Hey all, apologies in advance if this Q is answered somewhere. After searching XDA and Google and trying to avoid posting something new, I resorted to posting.
Running Shostock 2, and I have two issues with TiBu. The first one has existed for all versions of Shockstock2 I've run, and the second one is brand new.
1) TiBu is unable to restore apps, only data. I've tried the different App Processing Modes (as is often suggested), to no avail. This is a smallish problem because it enables me to sort through the apps I really want, but I'd rather just do it in TiBu than going through market installs and then TiBu for data. Any ideas of what might be amiss?
2) New in Shostock 4.1.1 - Whenever any sort of backup occurs, many many apps and processes FC over and over (including Apex). Closing and reopening, clearing RAM, etc., don't help. The only solution I've found is restarting. Is this a bad install of Shostock, TiBu, or something I should just expect?
Thanks!

I am also running ShoStock2 and TiBu and do not have any problems. I can backup and batch restore non-system apps with no problem. As pirate already mentioned, never use TiBu for system apps.
What i usually do before installing any new ROM is to delete all my TiBu backups and do them again fresh. Have you noticed off the FCs occurs always at the same point in the restore process? It might mean a problem with a particular app.

Not restore, but the actual backup process. The TiBu backup runs (changing App Processing Mode allowed it to run without TiBu hanging), then if I interact with the phone any time after the batch backup has begun (including after the process ends), the FCs come fast and furious.

May I ask why never restore system apps?
I currently switched from 2.3.6 coz to shostock and used system apps restore to pretty much replicate my everything to shostock.
Does it cause a bug somewhere or somethin?

Some system apps can be restored safely, and others can not. If you are changing base, such as you did when you installed Shostock2 from UCKK6, then many of the system apps will be different. If you installed all system apps with data, your phone would probably not even boot fully, and at the least would constantly have force closes and/or freezes and other problems on almost everything. It is usually safe to restore apps like email, Gmail, memo, Google+, etc. but when I do, I always do only one app at a time.
If you ever have fc's, freezes, or other problems, then you should reinstall and restore more carefully.
A little update, since it looks like nobody has any ideas...The FC problem occurs when any app uses super use privileges. And the problem seems to be getting worse - randomly happening even when there is no apparent reason it should. Is it possible that the install of Shostock simply didn't take and I should try again? Thanks.
The FCs happen because when you restore system apps with a backup that was made on a different ROM base many of them will no longer be compatible. You never, EVER restore system apps unless you are doing so to the same ROM that you originally made the backup on. Your phone may appear to be OK, but nagging FCs will continue to happen with no apparent reason. Your only solution at this point is a reflashing of the ROM from scratch as there is no way to fix what you've done.

TiBu's most recent update mentions fixing issues with batch jobs. I wonder if that was my issue.
Anyway, given the lack of knowledge on this front, I went ahead and wiped everything, flashed Shostock2 4.1.3, had the same FC issues, wiped, wiped, flashed, wiped, wiped, flashed, rebooted several times. It's now good, but still a puzzling issue. Still, there's no good explanation yet of where these FCs came from.

Well, genius, my response was to the guy asking why not to restore system apps with TiBu. Did you even read that? I guess I should have quoted him so that you would have no reason to make a snarky reply to someone trying to help others, but what do I know?

So the T-Mobile HTC One comes with quite a bit of bloatware and I just wanted to make sure I uninstall all that crap with doing any other harm. So I'm creating a list of bloatware below. My question is, is it safe to remove all the bloatware with doing any harm to OS/phone in anyway? Btw, I do have my phone rooted and have Titanium Backup.
List of Bloatware: Feel free to add to the list if I've missed anything.

Also, is there anyway of taking out the Internet and replacing it with Chrome?

You can take out the internet but some of the HTC stuff most likely needs it. Also Chrome does not support Adobe Flash player where i am sure the internet one does. If you want to make chrome a System app, you do this with TB. Just long hold the app you want to make a system app in TB and click convert to system. This will move the app from the user data to the system. If you wipe the phone the app will still be there but will just need to be updated. An easy way to find bloatware is to freeze the app under TB and if you have problems you know that the system needs it. You can just go and unfreeze it and use it again. If you uninstall something and do not make a backup of it, chances are you are going to run into problems.

If you just have root the system files are not writable. You have to flash a writable kernel. Root and stock kernel will not let you R/W it will say it did and confirm, but upon reboot, well you already know that.
Check out some custom kernels to access those advance features. I am on bulletproof right now. Pretty slick

A lot of people use Titanium to freeze apps; not sure what's happening if they're coming back.
I, on the other hand, rename the apks in root explorer (change the name to camera.apk.bak, for example). Another viable (and easier) option is to find the app in settings -> app -> all and disable it. With both methods, they can easily be reenabled if the mood strikes you.
The stock kernel has write protection so if you delete apps they come back.

I cut off the wake up paths of many apps, which ade them non functional. Instead of re joining wake up paths, which would have been a time consuming, I considered reinstalling Greenify.
But the apps still not working. I did stock restore, reinstalled the apps but not working, always showing error '<app name> has stopped'. I am using magisk. Xposed framework not installed. What to do, please suggest?

Normally an uninstall of Greenify coupled with clearing of its data and cache and a reboot should solve the problem. But if you are reinstalling Greenify, the previous settings of Greenify stored in your PlayStore account will be revived. So don't reinstall Greenify till you delete the backup in your account.
A clean flash of your ROM after wiping system and data (excluding internal storage) should suffice.

In fact this may be the only way to restore full functionality as it's unlikely you will be able to meticulously restore all severed wake up paths without detail records. Simply uninstalling Greenify with NOT restore the broadcast receiver links as you discovered.

I first tried this only (before restoring stock), uninstalled Greenify (using android, not with external app), then used SD Maid and finally rebooted. This didn't fixed any app.
I even tried reinstalling all the apps not working, even the system apps. All the apps for which I didn't cut off wake up paths are working normally.
Then I installed Greenify again in hope that all previous settings get restored but no, if that would have happened I would have reattached the wake up paths.
As you are suggesting to wipe system and data and then flash rom, but why restoring stock is not working. Because after that all system file restored, all system app s back to their initial state. Not working app reinstalled. Everything is now normal. Can you or any one else tell me, what Greenify do or changes while doing the cut off?
Actually, I don't want to wipe my phone again, I did that just 1 month ago, because of bricking my phone?

See my previous response. Greenify cut offs disable the path to the relevant broadcast receiver (Receiver Manager in SD Maid). You could try to reenable items individually in MAT or SD Maid but which ones? Without a history of receivers cut off in Greenify you'd only be guessing and would likely make matters worse. Uninstalling and reinstalling an app will usually restore the paths. Updating an app usually won't.
Can't speak as to why "restoring stock" didn't work. Depends what you did and the method used to perform the restoration.
