hello.My phone is A720F.I installed Rom A720 offical build number A720XXU8CSF1 (June 2019 Securiy Patch).Oem Unlocking is not exist in Developer options.I cant wait for 168 hours.Please help?
this method is not worked for me.
1 - Enable Developer Mode (settings -> about phone -> software information -> press build number for 10 times)
2 - Change Date (settings -> general management -> date and time -> turn off auto-update time -> set the date for 8 days ago)
3 - Check Software Updates (settings -> software update -> check updates manually)
4 - Reboot
5 - Change Date Again (settings -> general management -> date and time -> set the date for 10 days ago)
* it's probable that the date will be again the current date, but don't fear, set it back to 10 days ago
6 - OEM Unlock (settings -> developer options -> check if the OEM unlock toggle is present -> else, go back and forth between the general settings tab and developer options and if needed use "close all" from recents and reopen settings again).

1 - Pull SIMs. Developer Mode enabled. Ensure 'Auto Update System' is disabled.
2 - Changed date to 4 weeks ago (turn off 'Automatic Date and Time')
3 - Check Software Updates (Check updates manually). Ensure 'Download Updates Automatically ' is disabled
4 - Reboot. Check for OEM switch in Developer Options
5 - Check date again (it's likely that the date will be current date, but if it is, just set it back to 3 days before last date change)
6 - Check OEM Unlock toggle is present. If not, go back and forth between the general settings tab and developer options and if needed use "close all" from recents and reopen settings again.
7 - If not working, undo all the above. Restart and try again.
8 - If it does work...celebrate - you can flash custom binaries and custom ROMs
9 - Get TWRP flashed through Odin
This has worked for me on latest BTU firmware for A520f and for several other users recently.
Try it (a few times if needed) for your A7
Fingers crossed

Ah well. At least we tried. You can always try again after a reboot. Ensuring everything that is an auto-update is off

To access developer options in 4.3 you need to do the following:
Goto Settings, More, About Device
Got to Build Number and press it several times. This will activate the Developer options.
You'll then see Developer options under System Manager
Hope this helps....
Greetings,
I just wanted to share my solution to resolution of a brand-new Moto G7 Power XT1955-5 having the developer option "OEM Unlock" disabled. I see issues for a separate model here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g7-power/help/oem-unlock-greyed-t4061763
I do not know if my solution will work for other models. My XT1955-5 was manufactured in 2020 06 and purchased in US.
My intent here was to get the bootloader unlocked for installation of custom ROMS as quickly as possible.
Start Phone
Skip all setup options.
Enable Developer Mode
Enable USB Debug
In about phone > time/ date settings, disable all toggles
Set phone to a period of 8 days ago - arbitrary number
Reset Phone
Reset Date to correct date (leave toggles as-is)
Connect to a wireless network with access to Internet (I was using a WiFi, and did not try data)
Read first before attempt - Done quickly -> Phone begins downloading security patch (or it begins with next step - not sure) - Done quickly -> Attempt to set up an account (Google) whilst phone is downloading security patch - account setup waits for security patch update - Proceed to developer options - OEM Unlock toggle is available - Toggle during download.
I strongly suspect that there is some trigger associated with either downloading a security update, or simply attempting to enable an account on the phone (which requires you to be connected to data), but I do not know which. It is likely that there is not specific time sensitivity involved, but I am including my exact actions that resulted in success.
I hope it helps. Happy development!

Yes. The bootloader is now unlocked. I did have to obtain an unlock code from Motorola. The primary issue here was the inability to toggle "OEM Unlock".
I was using Motorola's guides that are linked from this website:
support . motorola . com/us/en/solution/MS87215
After i update to android 11 i lost developer mode. I tried to enable it (settings - about phone - software information - 7 taps on built number - pattern) several times and got no developer menu.
Also tied to clear settings app cache and data and do it again and nothing appends.
Is there any way to solve this without resetting the phone?
Btw, my phone is s20 ultra
Today's update solved the problem
Hi!
The system updates option to be missing from the settings menu of my LineageOS (Settings > System > System updates). It does show up in the search results of the settings even then when I clicked on it, i am taken to the system screen of settings (Settings > System).
I have the 17.1 version of LineageOS on OnePlus 3T and there wasn't upgrade notification since January.
Thanks for your help!

So i got A29 build and i dont want any updates. I have turned of aito night update, i have turned off auto system update in developer options but i still keep getting proposals to install an update like twice a day. That is annoying. How can i kill an app so taht would stop bugging me? Thanks!
I am sure I do not know the best ways, but here are the ways I have written down so far (I too, never want any updates). Looks like 1,2 and 3 require no root, and 6 is just a good point to remember:
1 - check "Software Update" screen: (Settings > Software Update)
2 - check “Automatic system updates” screen:
a - Settings > About Phone > Software Information > tap "Buld Number" 7 to 10 times to enable "Developer Mode"
b - Settings > Developer options > Automatic system updates
3 - purchase and sideload the Package Disabler Pro app (disables OTA forever)
4 - on AmazonKindle, deleting the /system/etc/security/otacerts.zip will prevent updates since their signatures can't be verified by the device
5 - chown root and chmod 755 the /cache partition can do the same as above (but will it affect recovery?)
6 - while you work on a phone to disable the updates, do not forget not to insert a SIM and not to connect to WiFi, untill the OTA is fully blocked / disabled.
As for how to get rid of the NAG about the updates already downloaded and waiting for the installation, i THINK you might want to wipe cache? Because that's where they are stored while waiting?
It is good that you do not have the A/B system device, where the damn updates are installed on the fly!
If nothing works, this is why I always need root. Because the manufacturer pushes me to, leaves me no way out to just peacefully coexist, they just have to force feed their updates to us. Good luck bro.
