"Over the past decade, there have been a handful of occasions when an Android update wreaked havoc on my phone. Once, it was so bad that I had to do a factory reset and start over."
"The good news is that there's a somewhat hidden section in Android where you can roll back updates for nearly any Google service. For example, if Android WebView suddenly stops working correctly, you could roll back the update, and the service will work as expected again."
"If you roll back a service, and it doesn't fix your phone, first make sure you rolled back the right service. Your last-ditch effort would be a factory reset, as there's no way to roll back a full Android update."
Android updates can sometimes cause significant issues, such as preventing app installations. A hidden feature allows users to roll back updates for Google services, restoring functionality. If a service like Android WebView malfunctions, rolling back its update can resolve the problem. If issues persist, ensure the correct service is rolled back, as a factory reset is the last resort. This rollback option is specific to Google Services and does not apply to user-installed apps.
