Hi,
I keep getting pestered by Sony Xperia e4m Update Center, so I want to turn it off or block it somehow
I managed to find a firewall app which blocks it out but this app drains battery instead.
I keep setting Update Center to NON-automatic updates, but for some reason it sets itself back to update by WiFi. So whenever I have forgotten to turn the firewall on, I get a message that my Updates are ready to install, finding out it have been downloading updates for several minutes without my knowledge or approvement!
Often these messages appear in the middle of nowhere, when using the phone. When doing calls or watching videos it interrupts and ruins everything.
Hi,
I have several apps running draining both battery and memory of my phone. And Update Center have automatically installed new built in apps I cannot remove, which I did not even ask for or even use. They are just there draining my phone.
I dont want to jailbreak my phone, and as stated in another post, I have been using a firewall but it drains the phone as well.
I know it is possible to disable the app but whenever restarting the phone the apps appear again in business. So doing this everytime is time consuming and annoying.
what phone???? what android version??? you can try going to your settings - application manager - scroll down to the app, click on it and see if you can disable it there
You cannot remove a preinstalled application on Android, the system does not allow you to do so. The disabling the application does uninstall all of its updates and puts it to sleep.
If you want them to permanently be removed, then you would have to root the phone.
I said above, they you can in fact disable applications and it will stop all of their processes.
