Question Trojan or update?

[Theo54au]

For the last few days I receive this message about an update. But it doesn't say for what? a Security update? a System update? or an App update. There is no clue to where is came from and what it belongs to. I checked my phone system and all is up-to-date. I am hesitant to use this update as it might be a Trojan. Has anyone seen this message before? I receive this on an Oppo phone:


Please help, thanks so much.

Welcome to Android Central! Which Oppo phone is this? And to be clear, you went to the system settings, looked for the section to check for system updates, and it told you there weren't any?

Yes, correct, the system settings are telling that everything is up-to-date. The Model I have is an Oppo A77 5g

I wonder if it could be a package that updates some of the preinstalled Oppo apps (i.e., bloatware), without it being an actual firmware update.

You could try booting into Safe Mode: https://www.hardreset.info/devices/oppo/oppo-a77/safe-mode/. If the notification still occurs in Safe Mode, it's likely legit.
