Been asking T-Mobile and OnePlus on how to block this update as it breaks creation of a work profile and I can no longer us my phone for work. I've downgraded to A11 using MSM but then as soon as I connect to WiFi, the device starts downloading the A12 update. Pausing it says it will update after midnight.
I've forbidden data usage to Android Setup (there is no system update app that I've been able to find in any of the apps even after "show system" is checked) and disabled those apps. I've disabled "allow automatic updates when rebooting". Going into System update there is no gear to stop the update. I've turned data off to anything I can find, i've also done this in safe mode. I can't not be able to use this phone for work and it's basically brand new.
If it's rooted it won't work for Work Profile either. Microsoft documentation states that OnePlus, Oppo, Realme, and Nokia phones do not work with Android 12 and work profiles and that they should not be upgraded yet, so I assume there's a way to stop this upgrade.
Anyone have any luck?
Install NetGuard, go to settings > advanced options > enable system apps.
In NetGuard, search for updater and turn off network for it, then turn NetGuard on and leave the VPN on while you use the phone.
Thanks! When I searched for updater on my phone, under system apps, only Mobile Installer and ConfigUpdater showed up. Searching for update, it's built-in app updates and Dynamic System Updates, both of which I believe are not the right ones to block. I did try blocking all four and the update still applied (I set my time to midnight and left it plugged in)
Any suggestions? I feel like T-Mobile makes this too difficult
For what its worth, I used an app called Island to create a work profile on my device while it still had A11. My phone upgraded to A12 and the work profile and all of its associated apps were still there. I haven't noticed any problems with the apps or accounts on that work profile, either (although A12 is a dumpster fire).
My phone is currently a bone stock LE2127 from T-Mobile.

You could use shelter on android 12, it works fine. If you still need to block updates, use PCAPdroid, turn on its VPN, then attempt an update. You should get the update server and you could block it via DNS.
Ok, so I've tried a couple of the above. unfortunately I need to run company portal for it to create the work profile so when I went to use shelter it didn't take as running Company Portal immediately killed it. We use Intune and compliance and all that fun stuff.
I also went and checked PCAPdroid, and I couldn't tell where the update server was, so I went and I blocked network traffic from everything with NetGuard, and slowly removed things to see what app was doing the downloading. The only thing that stopped the update from downloading was blocking Google Play Services.
I have a couple PCAP files but I'm not sure if they are even capturing the download of the update file.

I suppose I could live life for a few months turning on and off google play services connectivity when I need to install stuff. I just can't believe that T-Mobile knowingly forces this on you.
I don't remember where I found it, I think it may have been some random 8 Pro subforum.
They said to use this command.
I'm crossing my fingers.
Code:
adb shell pm disable-user com.oneplus.opbackup
Unfortunately tried that as well, doesn't exist on the OP9 Pro T-Mo edition. It's almost as if they castrated this version lol.
I appreciate the help though!
Exception occurred while executing 'disable-user':

Hi,
It seems like gateway.oneplus.net is the update server, you can try to block that only.

I'm cautiously optimistic right now. Blocked that through no root firewall, tried to download the update and it wouldn't go through. Currently have the phone set to 12 am and sitting on it's own to see if it'll actually auto update over the day. If it doesn't, woo hoo! Thank you so much! If it does, sad face.
You're welcome!
If it doesn't work, let me know and I'll be more than happy to assist you.
Argh! I was wrong, I accidentally had everything blocked and not just gateway.oneplus.net. PCAPDroid isn't picking up any different dns servers or IP addresses when I run it other than what I've posted. I ended up finding a way to block the download when the screen is off (apparently app "Root" in NetGuard stops it from downloading) and I think I should be ok until T-Mo releases a better update with OnePlus that works.
Thanks for the help, hopefully it doesn't and up somehow finding it's away around my network block!

Is this working for you? Do you still get the notifications about an update being available?
The fix I posted above has worked to prevent notifications & updates on global but I want to go back to T-mobile ROM now due to some odd network behavior.
Oh geez, I just MSM'd back to TMO and I see that TMO is now forcing the first update to be to 12 instead of a newer version of 11.
Global will let you step up to the most recent version of 11 before forcing you to 12.
But TMO just skips right to 12 without giving you a newer 11 first.
Anyone know how to install the most updated version of TMO 11?

In order to get the latest OOS 11 version, first you need to MSM. Then, you need to update, make sure it's around ~460 MB or so, it will look like it's an update to OOS 12 but it's not. Then you should end up on 11.2.9.9 and then you need to block the update that's around 4000 MB and you should be good to go.

I MSM'd and the current version was 11.2.6.6.le5acb.
Then, I went to the update tab and it says the update available is for le2127_11_c-16, which is the 12 version.
I don't remember the size on it though and I've already moved on to a custom ROM to test something.
Are you saying this was telling me it would be 12 but would have actually done an 11 update?
Yes, at least in my experience.
I was skeptical at first but then thought to myself there was no way an Android 12 upgrade was ~400 MB. Also, given the fact that I tested on global and it forced an upgrade to the latest Android 11 version BEFORE doing an Android 12 upgrade, I figured it wouldn't really have upgraded to Android 12.

Yeah that's what I used but then it kept upgrading on its own. Had to do it a couple times then block network connectivity to specific addresses.

This morning I had 5 apps come up for update. Two of them updated fine. The last three stalled about mid-way through and then showed the attention required message. When I tap the the message I get "There is a problem completing your request. Try again later. Error Code: 8103010d
All three apps are demos, but the two that completed were as well. Googling the error code did not bring up anything useful.
Probably because mango is in beta and the apps haven't been fully updated to mango

If had the same error yesterday with PES2011 (full version) and today with Turn by Turn Navigation. I managed to get the latest PES2011 by uninstalling and then downloading the complete new version again. Doesn't seem to work with TBT, since it's grayed out for some reason.
@nalgrim
It's most definitely an issue with the mango beta. But I'm very certain it's not by far related to apps not being updated for mango. None of the apps currently available on the marketplace is.
Turn by Turn was one of mine as well. I figured it had something to do for Mango but I'm just checking to see if there's a work around. Since updating to Mango I've had dozens of updates with no issues.
Not a big deal. I'm still enjoying Mango even as a beta version.
I found that when I tried updating certain apps over my data connection I had this (or at least I think it was this) issue. Updating over wifi seemed to fix it though.

Same here. WIFI didn't make a difference.
I noticed that it's not the download that fails, but the installation. Download in Mango is always completed when the 50% mark is reached. After that the installation process starts. That's where the error occurs.

Someone who has figured out what to do? I got this problem today with hTC hub update.
I know this is an old thread but, I wanted to put a post here for people with this issue. I had a demo installed and I tried to buy the app and I got the 8103010d error(this is with a current version 8107 not just mango). I uninstalled the demo with the same error.
I went online and found a sideload version(a hacked version) of the app and installed it. Then I uninstalled it. I attempted to reinstall from the marketplace and it installed fine.
As I dont promote pirating software, it fixed my issue here, just make sure you delete the pirated software after attempting this.

Well I think simply uninstalling the demo or whatever the old app is and then installing the new one should do the work. It did for me.
I have literally said yes to updating every time it pops up. I know it's the same, because it's the same size every time (293.3 MB). Not to mention I've said "accept" every time, installed, reboots my device, then couple days later it tells me to do it again. Another thing to note are the same 3 systems apps asking to be updated (Voice Mate Speech Pack, Voice Mate, Voice Mate Engine).
Text from the update:
This update will ensure your device is working at optimal performance with the Sprint Network. The update will require that your phone is rebooted and it will not be available for emergency calls while installing the software.
My LG G3 is the Sprint variant (ls990), rooted via Stump Root and on the stock android. I have used G3 TweaksBox, as well as installed Xposed.
PM me for a link to the screenshots.
Anyone with an answer? Google only refers to Lollipop updates that are still not here anyways

You know OTA`s will only be installed when a device is unrooted and doesn`t have any system modifications. Either disable OTA notifications or flash a stock rom and have root removed or flash a custom recovery and rom.

Since the update to 10.0.3.0 I've got a task named Android Setup in my tasklist. It seems to bundle some of the Google stuff, but I've never seen it before. My brother uses a Nokia 7 Plus with Pie and January patch aswell and he doesn't have this task. Could you please check inside developer settings / running services if you have it too?

Strange, on my side it even reappeared after flashing the full 10.0.3.0 firmware with data wipe.

I hope so, too.
Don't know yet, why it is not supported.
At the moment you can't really find anything about it on the internet.
I've got Gapps installed on my P40 Pro. For a mobile phone, I think it is required.
On the tablet however, i think its more a nice to have than really necessary.
Furthermore, I wrote to Amazon Video, Netflix and Disney+ support and all of them said that "they are working on it"
So fingers crossed that HQ Streaming of those services will be available.
Although Disney+ does Stream in 1080p without Widvine L1.
Edit: Found an article about the problem. https://www.justandroid.net/2020/07...ernative-solutions-also-affects-matepad-10-4/
I'm having the same issue installing on Matepad 10.4 WiFi (BAH3 W09). No method works, LZplay (G icon app) always gives the error button on opening and cant go any further. Tried replacing 'backup' app exactly as directed in a couple of videos, no luck.
Anyone got Google 7&Play to install on this model?
Looking into this I would guess Huawei have removed the 'stubs' in the system firmware that allowed the LZplay app to work in the first place (and allowed it to install the required stuff as system apps). If newer devices are being rolled out without those 'stubs' then we are out of luck as far any LZplay method goes.

I don't really know what the function of the "stubs" file is, but if it is removed, is it possible to add it back and then install LZPlay?

Actually, it isn't 'stubs', I got that wrong. It's an undocumented API that existed in the firmware/ROM that allows LZplay to install the google stuff as system apps (and they need that to work). If they have removed that API from affected models, and it looks like many new ones might be in the same boat going forward, then I cant see any way of a user restoring it.
If that is the case then the only way to get GMS/Play etc will be a new non LZPlay method (that seems unlikely given the system access required) or if the ban gets lifted and Huawei add it back in future firmware updates (not sure how likely that would be either). A shame, as this is a very nice tablet otherwise.
Another thing to note is this doesn't have a gyroscope either, though the spec sheets wrongly say it does.
I've only just got my Matepad 10.4 from the Huawei UK store, so I'm seriously thinking of sending it back in the 14 day window. I could live without GMS/Play, but it is annoying.
Just one workaround - you can install VMOS virtual machine. It is not perfect - they have just Android 5.1 and 7.1 images and of course you have to start the application, but it works.
Between the AppGallery and the VMOS I have all I need. And the Trump's stupid trade war just allowed me to get the top tablet cheaper than Huawei would sell it otherwise. Every cloud has a silver lining.
And one more solution - HiSuite enables (as of today, not sure for how long) to downgrade firmware. And LZPlay works on the older firmware.
Of cause - the downgrade will delete all data on the tablet.

Ive no problem erasing everything, but are you sure it will work on an older firmware? Do you have a link to that info at all?
Pretty sure the firmware mine came loaded with ended with 115. LZPlay didn't work with that and I have let it update since then to the latest version. I think the first version made for this tablet ended in 108 (can't see an earlier revision in a google search). I assume that's what the first models in early April would have shipped with. If LZPlay has never worked with this model though downgrading wont be any help.
It worked for my tablet which I bought a few days ago, but I now realize I have LTE version - so different model.
Still I guess the LZPlay problem may be similar. LZPlay does not fully work anywhere anymore. Even when it works, it fails to do its work on its own and has to be helped by manually installing things. I used https://youtu.be/pdgGkHEe7V4 .
My experience: After getting the tablet I updated it to the newest firmware and then tried to install GP. Bad luck. No device admin request from LZPlay, just small popup with two buttons in Chinese. I guess Huawei removed the API as written above. After downgrade through Hisuite (4.6GB download), LZPlay "worked" (it asked to be device admin and shown screen where it would have downloaded GP things if it had worked properly - though the downloads failed - I think that is normal). Then I went according to the describtion which was under the YouTube video. I had to redo installing of APKs twice (maybe I did not follow it perfectly first time) and I added Google account when starting Google Play Store (so not as described under that video), but it worked.
I was kind of confused by LZPlay for some time - the fact it fails to download etc is normal state of things. I guess it used to be one-click solution, but not any more. Still I guess that running it is essentiall to enable other steps to work.

Hi
I was on Android 12 and signed in to the beta program 10 days ago.
I've noticed that APKs that were fine on Android 12 are not working anymore on Android 13 Beta.
APKs are crashing at opening.
I thought that may have been an issue related to the beta version of Android but couple of days ago Android 13 stable rolled out (I've signed out from the beta) but those apps are still not working.
I've found older APKs for a couple of apps and one works and one not.
How can I solve this without a factory reset?
Thank you in advance
What are the apps that are crashing? What does a logcat show when the app crashes?
Google introduced restrictions in A13 for side loaded apps. No longer can they use accessibility apis nor can they access notifications etc. Just speculation but if the apps you are using are old they may be crashing because of these changes.

Google introduced restrictions in A13 for side loaded apps. No longer can they use accessibility apis nor can they access notifications etc. Just speculation but if the apps you are using are old they may be crashing because of these changes.

You can bypass those restrictions by going to the app info page of the app and clicking on the 3 dot menu in top right corner.

Wasn't aware of this, thanks!
I don't have any issues with manually installed apks...
Hi, i have the same Problem with every sideloaded App.
There are no 3 dots in the right Corner.
I don't know exactly how to bypass Them
Waiting till the weekend to update, but what APKs are giving the error?

Do those apps need Accessibility and/or Notification Access permissions? If not, then I don't think the 3 dot menu needs to be there as it is only for those specific permissions (or whatever other permissions Google might add to the list in the future).
For example, I have Adaway installed but it doesn't have the 3 dot menu because it doesn't need either of those permissions. The same for App Manager.
I am really confused with this new "session-based install" security.
What are "session-based install" and "non-session-based install"
Play store app install --------- surly "session-based install" 100%.
3rd-party store install --------- is said also to be "session-based install".
Firefox download an apk --------- is said to be "non-session-based install",
But how the firefox different from a 3rd-party store????? a system white list something?
safetynet, selinux, forcing many settings, anti-rollback, non-store app restrictions.........
I enjoyed so much that google throws sht tons of troubles to billions of advanced users, to fight an enemy that may not even exist.
(how many people have their phone bootloader secretly unlocked remotely by a hacker and installed root malware, unknowingly?)
Gives a warning is good eg. bootloader locked warning is great IMO. But force the hands and keep finding ways to screw the advanced users as hard as they can, to get the "everything is under my control" status is the wrong path.
I read the news that malware devs have already found a way to bypass this restriction.
In the end, like many others, It achieved nothing, except giving trouble to advanced users and devs.
A global bypass must be also on the way, especially from China. Millions like 90% of APPs are not store-based in China since the google ban, and people are used to download apk from every companies' websites as we do on Windows PC.

3 APKs from the company I'm working for (not on PlayStore) 2 sideloaded apps, and a LADB signed sideloaded APK
For example you cut and CC cleaner keeps crashing all the time.
Same here. Almost every app not from Play Store keeps closing right on tap to start them.
Tried to sideload them per USB with full rights. Same.
My company apps that didn't come from the play store are opening without a problem
Thats Vers Strange, indeed.
Every sideloaded App, modded or Not does Not work
Thought it was me...this is bs!
What's the next step...start posting logs I assume?
It's not EVERY sideload for me but about 1 in 3 I'd say.
btw...I got an 'install failed' trying to install/flash the viper4android mod not realizing how old it was...now I'm seeing lotsa audio/sound related crap in logcat reader. If I AM 'currupt' somehow, will just a rom re-flash fix a magisk issue or do I need a full wipe?
Tia for any guidance offered!

Me too but looks like is some security thing from Android 13. I really hope that somebody finds a workaround soon or I'll have to switch back to 12

12 won't work right on the 13 bootloader, and you can't downgrade the bootloader.
When I initially tested flashing only the 13 bootloader on my Pixel 6 Pro, while still running Android 12, it booted fine, I unlocked the phone, and all looked normal. But I didn't launch apps, especially Chrome, YouTube, and plenty of other things. If I had, I would have noticed problems that others have had since then. It was since found that certain/many kinds of apps will not work right running on Android 12 when you have the 13 bootloader installed.
I know this above is not what this thread is discussing, but since you mentioned it, I just wanted to point out that if you're on any Pixel 6/Pro/a with Android 13's bootloader flashed, you won't be able to use stock Android 12 on it. You'll be able to flash everything but the bootloader, boot it up, and unlock it, but before long you would discover problems that you wouldn't be able to work around and would effectively make your phone unuseable for many things that we take for granted.
By the way, hopefully you have the 13 bootloader flashed to both slots. Having the 13 bootloader on only one slot is a little dangerous.
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot --slot all flash bootloader bootloader.img
Guys, but are you talking of sideloaded apps, or apps installed as apk?
