minus-squaresad_detective_man@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13·6 hours agoWhat happens if I just stop updating android for as long as I can? Quite a few apps on my phone have retained functionality past when their developers attempted to brick them because I froze updates
minus-squaremrnobody@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·3 hours agoHello from Android 12 lol. My 4yo phone runs just fine!
minus-squaresad_detective_man@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·edit-23 hours agoSick. Any security scares or compatibility problems?
minus-squareMunkysUnkEnz0@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·4 hours agoMy Samsung S22 let me pause updates anymore. And it nags me to death. My workaround is to start downloading the update and then pausing it.
minus-squaresad_detective_man@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·4 hours agoRIP, that’s cancer. Yeah samsung has lost its fucking mind. I wish I had been considering the availability of 3rd party roms when I chose my model

minus-squaresad_detective_man@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-24 hours agoIt’s under settings > Security Privacy. You might need dev mode turned on
minus-squareAxolotl@feddit.itlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-22 hours agoThank you Edit: apparently it’s the playstore that manages play service updates, just disable play store automatic updates
