I keep getting a message on my Android phone saying there is a new carrier updat with a button to press. Should updates come from T-Mobile?

carrier updates are usually network adjustments.

 

does it give any other info other than just carrier update?

I am very suspicious of messages that do not indicate the origin. It could be genuine, but i am asking if others see this.

I went to the settings, system and see “Congratulations! A new software update is available for your device”. It sounds bogus. Shouldn’t it identify my device or my os or something?

I just got a carrier update on my Pixel 6 a couple of days ago and then went to the Play store and a lot of apps needing updates.

Are you sure it’s not a carrier services update that’s related to the Play store?
