New Samsung phones block sideloading by default
(www.androidauthority.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
It's in the article : "Samsung’s Auto Blocker feature takes things a bit further.The feature, fully blocks the installation of apps from unauthorized sources, even if those sources were granted the
REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES
permission."Damn. Finished the paragraph before it and made the comment. Lol. Interesting. Seems redundant.
So this new update (assuming the update ads this too) i just got today should have killed my revanced apps?
This is only for phones that come with One UI 6.1.1 by default and there's a page during OOBE setup with a toggle for this "feature".
An update to your existing phone will not turn on this block, it's only for new phones.
Ty, cleared it up right away.
I don't have a Samsung but I would imagine that this only blocks new installations and looks like that it can be easily disabled if you don't want it
