Just after hitting the “Download” button I read about the fingerprint issue, which is a complete deal breaker / no-go for me. So, the OS is not yet upgraded, but as soon as I restart my phone it will do so. Is there any way to avoid/abort the upgrade now?

There is an option in (settings > system > advanced > *developer options) called “Automatic system updates : apply updates when device starts” Whether that alone will save you, I’d don’t know. If you can’t see developer options, goto settings > about phone and tap build number 5 times?

How to abort the Android13 upgrade?

I just had to restart to get Bluetooth working again and it DIDN’T install the update!
