Yes, you can remove system updates on Android devices. It is possible to disable a system update, or you can even uninstall the update. However, this should only be done with caution as it might cause unexpected behavior and problems with your device.
If you choose to disable the system update, you can go to the Settings app, then select Apps and Notifications, then go to the App Info section, select the Apps tab, and then scroll down to find the “System Update” option.
Select the “Disable” option and the update will be disabled. If you instead want to uninstall the system update, you can turn off the Wi-Fi connection and then go back to the App Info section and select the Uninstall button.
This will remove the update completely and return your device to the previous version of the operating system. Before you make any changes to the system update, however, it is important to make sure that you have a recent backup of all the important data, files, and settings on your device.
How do I go back to an older version of Android software?
If you want to go back to an older version of Android software, it depends on which manufacturer you have. Generally speaking, the process is to back up your device’s data to an external source, preferably online.
Once you have backed up your data, you will need to locate the original version of the software, usually on the manufacturer’s website. Upon downloading this older version, you will then need to consult your manufacturer’s instructions for the specific process of flashing the device.
This is typically done using special software, such as Odin or Heimdall, that are readily available on the internet. Lastly, once the older version has been flashed onto the device, you will then need to restore the data from your external source.
It is important to note that since you are no longer running the latest version of Android, you will likely be vulnerable to security threats, so it is important to make sure you keep the device up-to-date on any relevant updates.
How can I go back to Android 10 from Android 11?

If you don’t feel comfortable flashing your device, there may be other options available. Some brand offer a way to downgrade the version of Android without flashing the device, although these options are generally limited and may be removed without notice.
