In developer options there's a setting to disable auto system update. Perhaps that would make hold the ota until you manually initiate the installation

I suggest you disable huaweiOTA via adb.
The command is :
> adb shell
> pm hide com.huawei.android.hwouc
ps:it can run without root.

Does this works perfectly , we can also switch off the automatically update in settings.

If you want to update,
you can run comand:
> adb shell
> pm unhide com.huawei.android.hwouc
OTA would be enabled in system setting.

Is there a same command for EMUI 4.1? I tried this command but it resulted in an error:
Error: java.lang.SecurityException: Neither user 2000 nor current process has android.permission.MANAGE_USERS.

Enable USB Debugging in
Settings > Applications > Development
If you have SDK set up on your computer, do ,
adb shell
$
type SU
$ su
Wait a while, you should see on your phone, press Always Accept
#
From now on ,it should work for everything.

"Always Allow" only allows connections from the same source (computer, etc) so if you load up Terminal Emulator, youll have to Always Accept for that too...etc etc

Yeah but if you do it via adb shell first,
it will work everytime after that.
If not, it will always force close on you.

have you downloaded the Android SDK? If so, open a command prompt and navigate to the SDK's Tools folder. then do adb shell

no, what i meant was, clicking Always Allow only allows the current process to be always allowed.
ex: if you connect via adb on a computer and Always Allow, then you still have to allow other programs like Terminal Emulator, drocap2, etc also Always Allow isn't universal, only applies to the current app that is requesting the permission.
don't remove this app
and there is no need to run this app manually
if an app requests root-rights, this app will auto popup
i dont know what i did wrong but its not working please some help thanks

can you please link me to a working backup of superuser.....I am having issues too.
there isn't a fully working one. the version we are using is from another phone completely. Until the author of superuser.apk writes one for us. the only method of getting superuser.apk to work right is.
1. enable usb debugging
2. plug your usb into your phone
3. choose HTC sync and wait for it to fail to connect if not installed.
4. while in sync mode start the app that needs root access and wait for the su prompt
5. select always allow
6. enjoy your app
some root apps like wifi tether require multiple access prompts to be fully functional.
hope this helps

Cannot re-enable apps that I've disabled.

I have a thing against having lots of apps in my app drawer that I never use. I always go through and disable ones that I won't need. Well, I disabled some of the ZTE apps like My Voice, and now I can't re-enable them. When I go to app info, it shows "disabled" on the list for the app, but when I tap it, there is an "enable" button that is grayed out.
I'd like to be able to do this without factory resetting the phone.
If you can get ADB running to connect the phone to the PC try this
adb shell pm list packages -d
adb shell pm unhide package.Name

:laugh: looks like we are all here , by the way wont work (unhide command) needs to be " pm enable " and requires system access (root) "Permission Denial" , i try with a disabled app(s), just hope we get that update soon to avoid all this problems
P.S. yeah i'm the guy from ZTE forum
Haha good to see you guys!
Too bad on the ADB pm cmd, i was 50/50 on it working

Technically i went there from here
Looks like you ran directly from terminal emulator. I'm not sure, but ADB shell might run under a different UID and have more permissions. This might have changed in MM, but you could use pm command to grand permission to Greenify package on non rooted devices
Was there ever a fix for this? I am running into the same issue and can't re-enable apps.

Are you sure about this? I have seen posts on ZTE board saying that apps can no longer be enabled/disabled with B27. With B20 you can at least do disabling (I am not sure about enabling).
some you can some you can't. you can disable ZTE browser, but can't disable ZTE calendar or ZTE messanger for instance.
For disabling apps, are you using a different launcher?
Launch the Stock Android launcher and disable apps through the app drawer - I've successfully disabled ZTE calendar and messenger on my device.
Re-enabling seems another problem altogether though..

B27 can still be rooted and bootloader unlocked. No real reason not to update.
no such love for B27

That was something else that was changed.
On B20, if you disabled apps in Settings > Apps, sometimes you would not be able to re-enable them.
(What you're talking about) On B20, if you use the Stock Android theme, if you press and hold on an application icon, there's a "Disable" option at the top of the screen that you can drag the icon to. Using this method, you could disable apps that you couldn't via Settings > Apps, such as the ZTE Calendar and Messaging apps. However, this allowed you to disable things that could cause issues with the device, such as disabling Settings or the Dialer. If you disabled apps this way, you could not re-enable them via Settings > Apps.
On B27, you can still disable apps in Settings > Apps, and people haven't reported having issues re-enabling them.
On B27, the "Disable" option in the Stock Android theme has been removed. So while you're not able to disable some stock apps, you cannot accidentally disable something that could break the OS.

Thanks - hadn't noticed that difference with B27 till now.
However, I've disabled the stock clock, and can no longer re-enable it through the App settings.
There does appear to be another solution (I haven't tried it though) - from the App settings, if you select the 3 dot menu on the top right, the option to reset app preferences should re-enable apps (and reset other settings as well).

Did you disable it back in B20? Cause when I look at the stock clock in B27 on my device, the disable option is greyed out.

Use this command to get your root changes to persist after a reboot

Thanks and all credit to Nameless One for the heads-up!
As found here - run this adb command to get changes to survive a reboot:
Code:
adb shell reboot disemmcwp
It seems there's system write protection enabled. That command will disable it. I changed my DPI and emojis and can confirm that both changes stuck!

Nice find, I'll be adding this thread to my Guides / Info Thread....
Thank you dude
Cool Awsome!! Now my phone is working properly with ROOT.
Is this step still needed? Been following the links on DrakenFX's thread that lead me here.
Thanks guys. The dev is much appreciated as is the guide pulling everything together.

Whether it is done by a script (if so there should be clear indication that it does this so people know where they stand in the overall process) or by hand it still needs to be done, it is a completely separate issue from whether or not the boot-loader is unlocked or the phone rooted.
Already did it. :cyclops:
Is this only needed if your bootloader is locked but you still wanna root ?
Ugh, so this was the reason why I couldn't uninstall system apps even w/ a system app uninstaller....
So developer unfriendly :/
Haha needed to do this on the official root for EU as well.
Yay, thanks guys! got adaway running. Starting to feel like home again..now to backup it before I screw it up..

Boot into A7, enable developer options and enable USB Debugging, connect to computer, accept the computer's debugging signature on your A7 (if you've never gotten a pop-up that you've had to accept, it's not connected properly), type in "adb devices" in a command prompt to make sure that the device is showing up, and if it is, issue the OP's command.

When I plug the phone into the laptop, the phone has a popup that sks me which mode I want to use the phone.
I choose Media device MTP. I also tried the mode called connect to PC software. Both times, the phone is recognized by ADB.
yet it will not fix the permissions

Go into the app's permissions list and make sure that the Storage permissions is allowed.
If that doesn't work, then try using a different app all together.

I am thinking the problem is that ZTE put a lock on system files so no one can delete them or modify them.
There is suppose to be some kind of way to turn that off but I cant seem to do it on my phone.

/system has write protection enabled by default, but the command in the OP disables it. After turning it off by running that command, I'm able to uninstall apps via Titanium Backup fine.

Can you tell me if your phone is rooted? what update version si your phone? Mine is 27.
Did you do this permission fix before or after root? did you use an emulator to do the fix or adb?

[No Root] Remove the banner ad on the main screen

Wasn't sure if this has been posted before. Wanted to share.
Connect with adb and run...
Code:
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.amazon.kso.blackbird

I'm not sure if the -k or --user 0 are necessary but its the same used on the kindle fire
I haven't tested but only way believed to return it is factory reset.

Well, if you're rooted, you could flash the same firmware again, I assume.
If you have root, couldn't you do:

I don't have root.
This doesn't remove anything from system, so reflashing the firmware is overkill to return this. Just a factory reset should return it although I'm not sure why you would return ads to the stock launcher.

Guessing it should also work on Rooted devices with TWRP. We can just do a Factory Reset in TWRP to get back to normal if needed. Or maybe backup the APK & reinstall it. Maybe you can look at the code needed to reinstall it with the right rights. The APK reinstall could be an option for those on non-Rooted devices that don't which to Factory Reset.
Since Rooted devices have the option to disable & enable then they don't need that option.

On the kindle fire, we found no way to return it without a factory reset. i have used this to remove com.amazon.device.software.ota com.amazon.device.software.ota.override, it wont allow me to check if there is a system update any longer. not sure of long term function. Amazon disabled hide at some point on its devices so it wont work on an unrooted device. This has led me to wonder what com.amazon.videoads is and whats its effect if its removed/uninstalled.

Yeah, went to backup some system Apps & did find two of them kind of interesting. I am wondering what they would do if disabled.
com.amazon.videoads.app (Could be ads when playing free vids &/or on Prime , not sure)
Tried the following commands. Could not see any difference in UI layout:
Code:
pm disable com.amazon.videoads.app
Code:
pm enable com.amazon.videoads.app
So left it enabled.
Local Recommendation Service (Not sure if it is related to the recommendations on the big banner below the ad banner we just disabled but it probably has to do with the recommendations from other app like Netflix, etc)
Not sure I want to mess with this one...
Backup a few other System apps in ES File Explorer without any Root privileges. And all also included a .systag file too.

I'm experiencing this too, I tried to uninstall again in case the update added back but it was not there to uninstall. The plus is the sponsored bar is now at the bottom and isn't in my way.
I too am having same issue, can we just get the file from someone on here and reinstall it via adb pm install?

Disable System Update

Hi,
I have a rooted OP8P running Magisk 21.0 (21000), and using Magisk Manager 8.0.2 (307)(11). My OS build is Oxygen OS 10.5.13.IN11AA(enhanced by xXx_NoLimits_ 12.3).
I keep getting the pesky notification to Update to Oxygen OS 11.IN1AA, the one that gives me the option to "Download and Install Now". I have no plans nor any desire to go to Android 11 as of yet, so I would like to do two things, stop this notification from showing up, and ensure that the update doesn't install itself.
Normally, I wouldn't worry about it updating without some user input but just today I got a second notification telling me that "System update installation failed" prompting me to "Try Again"(See attached pic). This is both good and bad I suppose, but it's still troubling since this newest notification indicates that it tried to update without me knowing about it. This simply will not do.
Any advice? I know it's not as simple as disabling the notification, as it doesn't allow me to do so.
Thanks!

I'm seeing the same and contemplated the same question. What are your reasons for avoiding the upgrade?
p.s. I can think about a way of disabling system notifications (using root access), but I worry about missing important notifications, so I left this pesky message on.

I just don't see any real reason to update, OOS 10 is working fine for me. From what I've seen OOS 11 doesn't bring anything compelling enough to the table to make me to want to upgrade. Also, OOS 10 has been around long enough that there are robust resources and development communities built around it, meaning more reliable troubleshooting and overall easier research. On top of all that, having to factory reset and re-root to avoid potential bugs due to OOS 10 residuals isn't very attractive either.
I mean don't get me wrong, I love the feeling and idea of being on the bleeding edge as much as the next guy, but I'd rather all my ducks be in a row beforehand...if that makes any sense.
Can you freeze the app in titanium??
Freezing System Update 2.2.3... did the trick for me.

That makes sense. If you have to factory reset, how would you restore your data? AFAIK, there not yet TWRP for Android 11, which means relying on something else. This make me nervous...

Don't have the pro version.
You can use the adb command to disable the update as well notification
adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.oneplus.opbackup

Works for disable and re-enable! Thanks alot!
today i formatted my phone and i try to give this command again but it doesn't work
That's an apk OnePlus released which may help you guys in this situation. If you check news in the Oxygen updater, there's an in depth article about it.
Major failing on OnePlus' part.
Here's the apk they're referring to, apparently it stops the update forcing wipes from OB3 not to go ahead.

Please check out the article before installing anything.
Edit: actually this is more for the people who were forced to update. Apologies, I'll leave it here as someone may see it.

Why did you format, did you update to OOS 11?
Also, when running the command line, make sure you open the command prompt within the same folder as your ADB files.

first run the command
Code:
adb devices
to ensure that you phone is connected, and that you have the proper drivers are installed.
Then, make sure that your phone is unlocked (not the bootloader, just actually unlocked so the screen is on). After running that above command, you should see a popup come up on your phone screen asking you to allow permission to your computer. Tap "always allow" checkbox and grant the permissions.
Now try to run the command again.
