adverts from HMS Core - Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers

Anyone else getting an increase in popup adds from HMS Core app, mostly pushing you to the gallery store?
How do we stop them

I had that to. Since last update (don't know when) it stopped.

I never had that.

Try uninstalling Huawei Management Services but from Google Play Store. After that, you can reinstall it again and when the menu below appears, select disable for everything.
If this does not work, go to "data usage" for HMS core app and disable mobile, background and roaming data. Then, select NO for "Display over other apps" and "Write system settings".

How to avoid play store update for an app

Hi
The latest google search crash on my rom, so I don't want to update it from play store, but I don't know how to disable the update for the apps that I want. I tried to detach from market with titanium but still wants to update it.
any idea?
if you go to Google Play, select the app, there is check box that can disable automatically updating. You'll still get a push notification of the update, but you can clear it and won't show up till a reboot.
There is setting within Google Play to change autoupdate for all apps too.

No, that's not that I wanted to ask.
I have auto-updates disabled, but when I go to "my apps", play store shows all my apps that needs to be updated, if I click the update button, all of them starts the update, I want to play store don't show that app so it will never update.
Right now I need to update all of them, then look to search and then cancel that one.
Its just like he said on the new play store auto update is under options on the particular app screen if you uncheck that that app wont update on you..i know dor a fact because i have a few apps set that way...wallet in particular because the new play store auto set everything to auto update and screwed mtly wallet up for a bit and i had to find the auto uodate option.
I don't know of any other way. You may want to try to side load the application. I know the apps I side load, which are not available in the US, don't update the usual way. Some I was to get when you could still use MarketEnable and other similar apps. This has been my experience with NFL Game Pass, BBC iPlayer, etc. They don't show up having an update. I have to go to all apps in the my application list, and manually check all app, and manually update those apps that show an update is available.
I'm not saying it'll work. It's just might do what you're seeking.
Also, TB did an update and had something about delinking. You may want to give it another try.
Personally, I had a few apps I didn't want to update. I would either update the apps I wanted one by one. Otherwise, when I hit update all, I would just hit the one I didn't, and hit stop update. Hopefully, the app wasn't the first to be updated.

Massive battery drain by google service with fresh install of CM11 nightly

After a fresh install, i experienced massive battery drain (50%+ over night).
the culprit was google service, easily identified in the battery overview.
It prevents the phone from going to sleep mode.
i searched for the problem and found
http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/...ce-wakelock-on-cm11-m7-massive-battery-drain/
"it's a new ota update service that was added in a recent Google Play Services update."
Solution:

Finally I was able to block the SystemUpdateService wakelock, using this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rs.autorun (Autorun Manager)
go to settings, enable the option to show system entries
(refresh services)
find google play services and disable:
SystemUpdateService$Receiver
SystemUpdateService$ActiveReceiver
SystemUpdateService$SecretCodeReceiver
done... no more wakelock and it didn't break anything, syncs all work ok
I know this app doesn't look the best, but I tried others like "Android Tuner Free", "Disable Services", "Gemini App Manager", etc, but they allowed me to only disable the main service and didn't show the other receivers that had to be disabled.

One thing to add: If you clicked too much in Autorun Manager, it stops working and says "only changing of 10 entries allowed in the free version".
I wont give tipps to bypass this behaviour, so first think, then click.
the app can reset your services status from the menu, if you misclicked.
well, im not sure if this worked out well..
after 6 hrs, still google service takes a huge chunk of my battery. will report tomorrow.
installed latest nightly over this one, flashed google apps zip again, did not wipe anything, did not deactivate any google apps nor services, problem gone.

Disable OTA Update. No Wakelocks. Need Root.

I'm just relaying my experiences and make no guarantees that you will see the same results that I have but I think most everyone should. First of all, for a long time now I had the SystemUpdateService$Receiver disabled in Google Services Framework and was shocked and extremely annoyed to see the update Monday morning on my N7 and then Tuesday on my N5. I've always been one to flash images as soon as they were available but I've decided to wait. Therefore...
The solution is simple. It really only requires one app but you can use two if you're extra cautious. AutoStarts which is a paid app is what I'm using. I have no idea how much it costs now because I've had it for 2-3 years. The other app is Disable Service. Using Disable Service by itself will cause a major wakelock (SystemUpdateService) which I verified with BetterBatteryStats and also with Wakelock Detector. All of the entries that need to be disabled will be in Google Play Services. In the Autostarts app menu use "Group by application," and under View make sure "Hide systems apps" is not checked. In Google Play Services the third "After Startup" entry from the top needs to be disabled and the second "Connectivity changed" entry from the top needs to be disabled. In the popup for both you will see "SystemUpdateService$Receiver" in the description. My experience so far is that only using Autostarts was sufficient as long as you did NOT go to Settings/About phone/System updates. As soon as you open the "System updates" page the system would re-enable the "Connectivity changed" entry and you will start getting the notifications. Even without going into the "System updates" page the system might at some point re-enable the entry but it never happened to me the day or two I only used Autostarts. To prevent that from happening and to save myself from curiosity when I felt compelled to look in the system updates page, I used the Disable Service app which will completely prevent the system from re-enabling the "Connectivity changed" entry. With the Disable Service app the entry that needs to be disabled is also in Google Play services and it is "SystemUpdateService." After all of the entries are disabled reboot and the notification will be gone and the "System updates" page will say that "Your system is up to date." The "Check now" button is now non-functional and the last time you booted up will be the "Last checked for update" time. I'm getting all of my notifications and the Play Store is auto updating the apps I'm letting update and I'm seeing those notifications also. From what I can see the only thing that is not working is the OTA system update.
Update: I've been using Autostarts by itself to disable two entries in Google Play Services for a few weeks with no issues, no notifications about a system update. Just looked in About phone/System updates and the OTA is still there. Re-enabled the second "Connectivity changed" entry, rebooted and notification is once again gone.

Thanks for the post. I was searching for a resolution to my 5.0.1 update for my the NEXUS 6. It was literally driving me crazy. I saw a couple of post on how to disable the OTA before, but none worked as efficient as this. Followed your instructions rebooted, no OTA !!!!!!!!So ...................Happy Days are Here Again.

Appreciate the feedback! I thought that it would work on the N6 and N9 but couldn't test it myself. Glad it worked for you!

Not one single OTA, now I can patiently wait for the wugfreh tool kit to update to 2.0.
My autostarts says "No applications are autostarting". Any ideas?

Google Keep notifications are working only when app is ipen

Google Keep notifications do not appear if the app is not open. Never happen to me on P10. Uninstaled it, worked for a day, again not working
Go to Battery -> App Launch and turn Manage automatically off for Google Keep.
Maybe also Apps, Apps, "3 dots top right", special access, battery optimization and exclude google keep.
DonĀ“t really know why there are two options for battery saving to be honest, if anybody has an idea.....

Music stopped by energy saving?

Hi,
how do I prevent the Huawei software to stop playing the music once it turns off the screen? I have tried to give the google music app all sorts of permission that explicitly state that it would keep on running in the background.
The only way is to turn off standby mode off?
Settings -> Battery -> App launch -> Disable "Manage automatically" for your music app.
Settings -> Search for "Battery" -> Battery optimization -> Change to "Don't allow" for your music app.
Did that already, it seems there are some other dependencies with the Google Music app, which also need the same settings.
In the end I used another app, and set the right permissions, now my mother has stopped complaining.
I have noticed this same problem. I use my P20 pro as my music phone, and the Play Music app is always getting killed. I'll probably have to just switch to another app or use a different phone.
