Tab S2 stop all Samsung & MS auto updates

[zmartha]

I have a limited amount of downloading per month and I do not want my tab 2 to automatically update until I am at a Wi-Fi other than my own tethering Wi-Fi from my Samsung cell phone. How do I especially stop Samsung and Microsoft? I have stopped the Play Store.

I'm not sure, but I think Samsung auto updates can be stopped by pressing : System - about device - software update - & unchecking auto update?

I had exactly the same thing, driving me nuts using all my home bandwidth, and all my hotspot bandwidth...

I would never have thought to look under "about device", I was looking in the software segments.

Anyway there was no way to pause it so I had to let is soak up all my bandwidth for a few hours, then I turned off auto updates.

Thanks for the pointer to where that's done. Shame on Samsung for forcing stuff on us, Apple-like...
