System configuration update

[veggie59]

Is anyone else getting a pop up for a system configuration update? Haven't seen that one before.

Can you show us a screenshot? If it's a toast notification, then you can use Toast Source to figure out which app is responsible.

This is on my notification screen..

If you swipe that notification partially to the side, do you see a gear icon? If so, tap it to see which app is giving you that notification. (You might have to long-press the notification instead.)
@mustang7757, does that look familiar to you?

I've only seen that switching carrier Sims and tapping would restart the device to apply that sims configuration

Edit : if I remember correctly it update message app to carrier configuration or something with carrier configuration.

This is what I see when I swipe to the side and tap on the gear. This screen pops up.

It's definitely a Samsung system app (you can tell by the icon). https://configuration-update.en.uptodown.com/android

What happens if you tap instead of slide?

I get this. Just haven't seen this before and I didn't want to install something just because it popped up on my notification screen.

That's safe and only applying carrier configuration

You would think that it would say that it was a T-Mobile update then if that was the case.

You can manually check for this in settings>about phone >software information tap carrier configuration couple times

Hi, i literally just installed this update on my Galaxy Note 8 and now I don't have any internet access. I still get calls and texts but can't load any apps or refresh email etc. Does anyone know how I can redo this update or remove it? I've tried restarting the phone and nothing helps.

Welcome to AC!
Uninstall system configuration?

Which carrier are you on? Make sure the APN settings are still correct.

I am in the exact same boat as Dnny Jay. I'm on metropcs by tmobile. I've gone through network resets, all the troubleshooting the provider could provide. I updated the APN settings, and still no internet. Can anyone help? When I double click on the Carrier Configuration, I get the same message as above... that they cannot do that right now and to wait 24 hours. I appreciate the help here.

I completed the configuration update on my Note about 2 weeks ago and then my mobile data stopped working. I took it to metro and they tried everything, but said there was nothing else they could do. I switch to another phone and now there is the same update, which I'm afraid to do.
