Download Package Disabler Pro + (Samsung). I think it was $1.99, but it's worth having. Once installed, search "Update" and check the second Software Update from the list.

Yeah that's pretty much the only way to get rid of it for good. Mine is now to the point where it's no longer giving me the option to select "Later." Lol. I just hit the back button and it goes away, then I set it to ignore for 2 hours in notification panel. Why the heck is that the only option Google?!

I should've held off updating since I'm not sure if the night / low light shots being yellow/warm is from the update.

Nope. I flashed the U1 version but will have to go back to T-Mobile version because of cell issues.

Was there an update overnight? All of a sudden the messaging app is acting weird.

So since last night (8/28), if I send or receive a text from another Samsung phone user, the text app gives me "delivered" notifications even when set not to, and it also broke TeslaUnread. Was there some sort of automatic update pushed out last night?!
Just checked my TeslaUnread and it was off... not sure why

I've also noticed that the chat options aren't respected anymore. As in, you will receive and send "read" and "delivered" notifications, even if its set not to. Regardless of how you set it.
Weird-I see too that TeslaUnread was disabled on mine! I had to go in and give it persmissions again (though I already had), so I don't know what's going on.
I'm on manual updates, no Samsung updates since pretty much release date, Google updates you can check yourself, should show in recent updates, not sure how security updates work, but you could check , phone came with
July 1 security installed, didn't change on mine.

Yeah mine didn't change either when i did that update...
so far, the stock messages app is still wonky, but Tesla unread seams to be working, but then crashes. Their support department already had me check some stuff and is working on it on their end. I must admit, for a company whom I paid only a few dollars to, years ago, the support from Nova Launcher and TeslaCoil has been outstanding :good:
Wrong post
Off topic a little ----Not a fan of the stock messaging app at all I use QKSMS or Messaging from Playstore. You can mark a text read straight from dropdown and you can reply with QKSMS in a hover screen never leaving your original screen.

Doesn't seem to include 9.0.5's feature set, so it may be based on it stability and system improvements wise, but doesn't add some if not most of the perks of the actual OOS build, no wonder it took so long to be released...

Yeah that's definitely a plus, it was one of the reasons I converted, worked so much better on 9.0.5, good for everyone who's still on stock, device works better now and they said nightmode got an update too, so pics should be nicer in the dark.
So they added the stability updates, but ripped out everything else it seems. Not cool. Wonder how long it'll actually take us to get the 9.05 build.

Someone said black friday, so roughly a week from now, sit tight and see what happens in a week.
Eh in that case I'll just wait a couple more days to get my token and move straight to international 9.0.5. I wonder what they did to the Unlock app. Lol.

The update mentions something about updating the Unlock app. I mean obviously for us it's not a big deal anymore, but I wonder if they fixed the problem where people were only getting temporary unlocks approved but perm unlocks pushed through.

Orrrrr maybe they fixed that possible bug where people would request permanent unlocks immediately at purchase and got approved despite being on eip and under 40 days, some even tried within the first 24hrs and got approved automatically for some odd reason, lol.

Yeah true. Gonna make it harder for perm unlocks!
Got this off reddit. Seems to add the new gestures from 9.0.5(?) as well as other improvements. Can someone who got this update on the TMO firmware check to see if the gestures are actually the ones in the latest update. Then we can confirm that the TMO variant just has a different naming convention.
Also, the build of that is 181029 while the 9.0.5 intl. is 181103

Try to disabled it via ADB, it might work.
Use these commands (make sure you enabled ADB in developer options) :
adb shell
Pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.entitlement
Not just me then, this seems to be a wider thing. There's hardly any info on what the process actually does. I mite have a go at uninstalling it
Uninstalled. No I'll effects so far
Maybe some debugging service that Huawei left by mistake?

Last time i trust the Romanian service center's live chat. The said that emui 9.1 will bring ar lens.

When will we get emui 9.1 update?

I thought it would be coming last July, but it's August and still no sign of updates.
When it's ready you'll get it ?
Wait until your turn to get the update. Mine got the update 3 days ago ?

Install hicare app from play store change your country as Singapore and check firmware update from app register for emui9. 1 and check systems update in settings. I got from this trick a month ago... But no major differences from 9.0 just caaler screen got changed like than small changes
Right lets get a few thing straight ..
1 - changing the country in hicare does nothing . The app cant be fooled !
2 - judging by the lack of response from questions i ask posters and the complete lack of screenshots of their alleged firmware updates
makes me think theres an awful lot of huawei employees on here trying to make the company look good with all the BS about i got the update , i got the update !!
This site used to be great years ago , now all we see is paid trolls !

No problem, I'm already hide some number on that pic. Thanks for your attention
I got the update on the 11th, and I’m in Europe. I had to go through the HiCare app. The phone is still a dumpster fire, ram management is still bad and accessibility services still get disabled randomly.

Google Play System Update issue (U.S. T-Mobile)

So both my sister and I have the same model unlocked Pixel 5 and are using our phones on T-Mobile's network as well.
I've noticed that on my phone I get the Google Play system update (not to be confused with the main phone/security update) whenever I do a manual check for it and a new one's available (Settings, Security, Google Play system update, tap on "Check for update"). But when I do the same thing on her phone, it doesn't update it, even after I restart and ensure that the Google Play Store app is up-to-date as well.
Eventually her phone finally got the December 1 update a couple weeks ago after I tried again, but then now there's a January 1 update and once again mine let me download it right away, but her phone refuses to update that regardless of what I do (main update it does do just fine though).
I'm guessing it will update it soon enough, but why the delay? Can anyone explain why two IDENTICAL phones won't update this at the same time when manually prompted?

Hey Saturday Night,
Thanks for the link. However, even if it does work for her phone, I still would rather not use it b/c doing so doesn't solve the actual issue of why it's not updating it automatically, or at the very least, when I attempt to update it manually (by doing a recheck).
It seems to update eventually, but I just find it annoying that my phone will do it when I recheck, but not her's. Makes no sense since again we have the same model phone and are on the same carrier.

Same thing happens to me but in reverse. My wife P5 gets it and then about a month later I get it on my P5. I don't really think about it since it really doesn't affect anything. Is there a reason you feel you need it?

Hey Bobby,
Ok, so it's not JUST me. Good to know. lol
No, not really. As I'd mentioned, it's really not a big deal. I just hope it doesn't indicate that there might be a deeper issue present with her phone. Also, I just hate that I can't explain why it happens at all. lol

The only thing I can think of is that it's a staged rollout and a random one at that. I update my phone's apps more often than she does so I figured that might be it and then forgot about it. A month later it popped up. I believe the monthlies are way more critical and those come at the same time.

That's not really an update but more of a place holder. The real update is much larger and can't be installed with an apk. It will change the date to make it look up to date but that's it.
