Hi everybody, i keep receiving this annoying pop up with wifi scanning every time i lock my phone even when the wifi is off or on. I turn the scanning off / on from developer mode (kept it in both ways for a while but still the message appears). Location off/ only gps/or high accuracy. Seems that all the commands don't really work.

Please help!
Thanks

I have the same problem! Would be great to get a solution to this. For me, the pop-up only seems to appear when I have Wi-Fi turned off. Whenever the pop-up appears, it minimises the app I'm in, too, which is really annoying because I use Google Maps in my car a lot, and I like to have the Wi-Fi off so the phone doesn't keep trying to connect to Wi-Fi networks that require authentication.

Have you tried going into settings-security & Privacy-Location services-tap on 3 dots-scan settings and make sure wifi and Bluetooth scanning is off?

Yea, i did that too... Everywhere i could possible know it can be a setting to scan/ locate :))... Only thing seems to work for not so many popups is letting wi-fi on all the time :)). Good that it has good battery life...

I have the same problem it's really annoying... And it pops out every once in a while it doesn't matter if you click agree or deny on this message

The only thing that seems to be working it's keep the wifi on... But of course I shouldn't be like that.... Any idea why we have this annoying pop up message?

Found this at Android Central, has to do with incompatibility with latest play store update. If you downgrade play store , then you get popups about Google play services being out of date. Oh well, just keep hitting cancel I guess. Im sure an update to solve will come soon. Lol

Here is what Huawei sent me:

Thank you for contacting Huawei Device USA!
We really appreciate your interest in our devices.

This is caused by incompatibilities between the device and Google Play services of version 12.8.74 or later.

Solution:

It is recommended that you try to solve it in the following three ways:

When pop up, touch CANCEL button.

Go to Settings > Security & privacy > Location services > The three vertical dots > Scan settings, turn off WLAN scanning.

For now, you are advised to go to Settings > Apps & notifications > Apps > More > Show system processes > Google Play services >The three vertical dots > Uninstall updates(This path will not appear until the version is updated).

Feel free to share this information.

Huawei is actively working with the Google development team to provide a final solution. Please stay tuned for updates about this issue.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused to you, we are working hard to make a connected world and this includes the satisfaction of our valuable customers.

Mate 10 lite here, been receiving this pop-up like mad yesterday. So I was right in thinking that the pop-up was probably caused by Google being Google again.

Hopefully we get a final solution that doesn't involve downgrading Play Services, a component that insists on being up to date.
