How to Stop Software Update Alert?

I keep getting a software update alert to install 10.3.0.908. I had this same issue when I installed 10.3.1 the first time, still getting the alert after installing the .2072 blitz through sachesi. Is there anyway to turn off the daily software update alert? Or am I just SOL? I'm on AT&T if that helps anything.

On the device:

• Settings/Software Updates/Options/Switch off "Automatically download and ...."

That should stop the prompts.

Go into Settings.. scroll down to "SOFTWARE UPDATES"

YOU MIGHT WANT TO TRY GETTING JUST A BIT FAMILIAR WITH YOUR DEVICE WHILE YOU'RE AT IT!




Thanks DaFox! You just beat me to it. I type real slow!!;)

Already did that. That just stops the updates from automatically downloading. There doesn't appear to be any options to turn off the alert.

Lostboy51whatever, very familiar with my device thanks. Which is exactly why I'm wondering if there is an easy fix that I somehow missed.

Hum...
OK, tap the Check For Updates while in the Software Updates screen.
After it finishes the check, does it respond "You have the latest updates"?
If so, then the issue may be carrier pushed bloatware as the "update" you get prompted for.

Thanks, that's what I was thinking, ATT wants me installing their bloatware update. Its only a minor nuisance as it's just a reminder once in the morning but I did wanna check to see that I wasn't missing some quick easy fix.

You could run the update...lol

Seems strange to me. I'm on 2072 and on AT&T, but I've not received any sort of update notification from them - ever.

Interesting. Sounds like I'm SOL until the next OTA update is available.

It might only be the exfat driver how big is the update

All good.

Reviving this old thread - is there any way to block these carrier notifications? I am on Verizon with Z10 and Z30 devices, and I don't want to do the 10.3.3 update as I've heard it does more harm than good, especially on the Z30...?

You can try this: Start the update THEN quickly hit the "pause" tab. Exit out of the update dialogue and continue on. Make sure that automatic download and install software updates remains in the OFF position under the Software Update Options section. Not guaranteed but has worked for me in the past.

That makes sense. Thank you!!!

Also restart your phone after using the above technique. It's how I got rid of nuisance 10.3.3 notices.

Do click on Cancel ? Or just leave it forever in the state of Pause?

I actually have gone back to double check and make sure it keeps in pause many times!! I think it's frozen for good. I feel my passport is actually so dumb. Lol
