[Q] Disable all automatic updates

I searched about this but I can not find a solution I want to disable all automatic app updates I only found answer do disable automating updates one by one in the Market app but I want to disable them all for I do not waste traffic when I am on 3G data with Wi-Fi I am OK. Does deactivating auto app sync in background under sync and account config do the trick? Even if it does I prefer the option disable all that I think the Market app once add because I need that some apps communicate with the net.
Thanks in advance
Poke around in settings, I know I have automatic updates disabled but I can' t seem to find the settings. In order for me to update, I have to go in to "My Apps" and manually update them.
This isn't the perfect solution to your quandary, but I don't think there is one...
In the Market app, go to Settings, and under Notifications change it from "Notify me" to "Do not notify me".
This will at least keep Market from checking for updates in the background (if I'm not mistaken), and your apps won't be automatically updated unless you open the Market app (again, if I'm not mistaken).
I seen that option but though that was just for notification purposes but In the computing world intuition is not always respected so I belive that will do the trick.
I will try it and post results
i am puzzled by this, but unless you have some sort of ungodly amount of apps installed you can go through the 'my apps' section and uncheck the update automatically check box and since it is off by default you will never have to do it again
Care to explain a little better are you referring disable automating updates one by one in the Market app as I said in my original post?
Thanks
You could also try Droid Wall and try to disable the Market from using 3G Data, and only use your home internet data or whatever.
In Titanium Backup, you can do this. Hardware menu button>more>market auto updates. This option may only be available in the paid version, I dunno. But Titanium is an awesome app and well worth the money.
I think this is what you're looking for...

Thanks I will try the suggestions my Nexus One is not rooted because I thought that rooting involved format my N1 and reinstall all my data and apps because i confused Andoid roms with root I am going to root using the voiding guarante method

I tried that but in the first day of August in less then a hour I used all my traffic in my 100mb data plan and I was just reading sites with no heavy java or images, called the phone company and they confirmed that was traffic.
"In the Market app, go to Settings, and under Notifications change it from "Notify me" to "Do not notify me" actually I think this only worsened the issue because when i lost all my allowance I did not see any notification of updates happening if I would be notified i would try to cancel the updates as i already did a few times although this option works randomly.
This issue is pertinent and lots of people are experiencing the same

Disable market autoupdate notifications ?

I am using the latest market (3.0.something, i believe).
It will not stop notifying me to update applications.
I do not want to update these applications.
There is no option to disable notifications like in the old market
I can also not find market autoupdate bulk toggle in the market
I would like to disable these notifications. How would I do so ?
I would like to know this as well. It keeps reminding me to update facebook but I dont like the new version and refuse to update to it.
i dont think there is a way of disabling the notification, you would just have to ignore it unfortunately !
@dkyle. whats wrong with the latest update of Facebook ? mines working fine !

batch toggle of Market autoupdates can be done with Titanium Backup - definitely in Pro verison, not sure about free - just go to Menu / More / Market Autoupdates
You can always use tasker so you never have to see the notifications
From something awesome
the older one... free i guess....
menu/settings/..booom....!

I just don't like the looks of it compared to the one before it. It seemed to work alright on mine but I don't like the way it looks like the mobile site now.

anyone ? Can't find anything else on the internet about this.
If you are running Market version 2.3.6 or under, the notifications can be disabled via Market --> Settings --> Notifications --> "Do not notify me".
I'm not sure about Market versions higher than this, as I do not want to deal with the latest market version layout. So you could roll-back or just re-sign the Facebook apk or whatever apk you don't want updated (Signapktic is a android app that would do this easy for you) and re-install it (you must uninstall the original before the resigned will install). The re-signed app won't show up in the market then.
The last option (again, tested on 2.3.6 and lower) is to manually edit the Market database file, under "/data/data/com.android.vending/databases/assets.db". All your installed apps will be listed under the "assests 10" table and you can remove them from there and push it back to your phone. The Facebook app or what app you delete from that file will not show up as installed in the Market anymore. The database will be regenerated whenever you clear the Market cache though.
Hope this helps,
-Mike
EDIT: Sorry for the redundancy, just re-read your post and saw that you are running the latest market and already looked at the settings. One of my other two options should fix the problem for ya though.

disable AT&T apps?

i google'd this but can't find anything on it and was wondering if the s3 is the first phone that allows users to disable at&t services without root. this is my first android device so i wouldn't know if that's true...
anyway, i have hotspots, navigator, messages, and updater. Carat is saying updater uses a lot of my battery, but that is the only one i can't disable in the application management menu in settings. however, i assume if i disable the other 3 then updater will have nothing to update and will consume less battery (hopefully).
has anyone tried to disable these programs with success, i.e. without it causing problems to your phone?
im not sure. but i did try to uninstall one and then it just showed up that it needed a update so i ended up redownloading the app because im so OCD about having updates not done
ATT Apps

You go into the application manager and DISABLE the app. I have gotten rid of ALL the ATT bloatware this way. Works sort of like
Titanium Backup but you do not need the root. Great option.

This is actually one of the 'features' of ICS (being able to disable apps w/o needing root). It basically very similar to "freezing" apps in TiBackup if you have root. It's generally much safer than outright deleting an app since if you do find you need it you can always re-enable it.
Make sure you have "auto update" unchecked in Google play first. Go to manage apps in settings and then go to "all".
Disable the ones that you don't need which is prolly a lot. You can also hide them if you want. While in your app drawer hit the menu button and choose hide apps.

Disable Battery Optimization

So it looks like there are many people having issues with the battery optimization feature, which lets me guess oneplus is already aware of the problem. My question is if there is a way to disable the optimization completely for now until oneplus has sorted things out.
Since the last update it is so aggressive, it kills youtube's connection to my chromecast every few minutes, rendering all control features unuseable as I always have to reconnect before I can do anything. This also makes my wearOS watch unuseable as it also depends on the phone keeping the connections alive.
You can turn off Optimization for YouTube and WearOS
Settings > Apps & Notifications > Special app access
You can turn off optimization for any app, and see the advanced in the 3 dot menu. I had the same problem with my watch, turned off the watch app and helper, now works great. I also turned off messenger, no problems now.

I also would like to know if this is possible in an easy way. I don't want to disable it for 256 apps independently.

Thanks for the reply!
That setting was the first thing I checked and already disabled optimization for the wearOS and cast apps which work fine now. Unfortunately it won't let me disable it for the youtube app as it handles that one as a system app. As long as youtube is not allowed in the background wearOS has nothing to communicate with so I still can't control it.
That's why my next thought was if I can't disable it for system apps maybe there is a way to completely disable it until oneplus has the problem solved. I know that solution would suck but at the moment I am forced to use another phone to use youtube properly which sucks even more imo.

I wonder if the system mover app works on Pie and YouTube? I didn't realize YouTube was a system app since it's from the play store.

I would love to try this but I am unrooted. Youtube should be on the list but it is not, I am guessing that is because it comes preinstalled, the playstore app isn't there as well for example.
I know this is an old thread, but the more I use my new phone, the more I believe this to be the issue with my Gmail app constantly putting my Exchange accounts back to 30 minute fetch. And, I cannot disable battery optimization on Gmail because it's a system app (and I do not want to root). For now, every other day, I have to tell the device that it really is OK for Gmail to remain constantly connected to my Exchange account, that I actually prefer it to be. I've made it to 54 hours with my normal use (OVER 7 HRS S.O.T), not trying to stretch it at all, no battery saving features on whatsoever. So it's safe to say I can afford for Gmail to stay connected with Exchange. The optimization is a bit too aggressive for not allowing system apps to be excluded.
I've also had issues with Google Assistant not reminding me about reminders that are clearly in the list of her reminders, and I think this to be the culprit as well, and again, can't disable it because it's not on the list.

Having exactly same problems with gmail and chrome (html5 push notifications). I am rooted. So I am considering to mark those apps as non system apps, but still not sure if this won't brake future updates or something.
