Latest Google Play Services Beta Update Apparently Fixes 'Check For Update' Button

For years, Android has had a 'Check for Update' button to permit users manually check for an update in example the automatic OTA does non go far on fourth dimension. Unfortunately, the functionality has been a 'striking or miss' to put it simply (and in my personal experience, a miss for the major part, as it hardly e'er came up with an update). Still, it now appears that the latest Google Play Services update has finally fixed the 'Bank check for Update' button.

Co-ordinate to an Android Police study, the latest Google Play Services update (version 12.2.09) released on the beta channel has made the 'Check for Update' push truly functional, and tapping on information technology now presents an update, if there is one available. All the same, one must keep in mind that borer on the push button won't always come up up with an update, peculiarly in cases when their network carrier has delayed 1.

Multiple users on a Reddit thread have as well confirmed the study that the latest beta build of the Google Play Services has stock-still the 'Cheque for Update' button. Withal, you lot must annals for the Google Play Services' beta program to upgrade to its latest build and test the functionality. (You can join the beta testing program for the official Google Play Services app here.)

If y'all don't want the hassle of registering for the beta program, there is also an culling road of downloading the APK, but nosotros DO NOT recommend that y'all follow it unless you lot can admission a reputable APK site such equally APKMirror and know which version of the app is uniform with your device.
