    Thread Samsung Apps from S8 and Note8 - verified working on Note5 and S7edge (NO ROOT)

    Hi, As you know, most APK's from S8 and Note8 cannot be installed like normal APK's on S7 and Note5. Samsung changed the signature of many packages so you'll get an error message "App not installed. The package conflicts with an existing package by the same name" if you try to install them as...

    Post Voice Input problem with Gear S2 Classic, Please Help!

    Hi everyone! I just wanted to let you know that Voice Input (STT) on my Gear S2 is now working again. I didn't do anything at all. I guess it was, in fact, a server-side issue that has now been resolved. Let's know if it is working for you too. Thanks to everyone for your contribution!

    Post Voice Input problem with Gear S2 Classic, Please Help!

    I also contacted Samsung support online and in person, and they told me it's possibly permissions-related (on the watch) and can only be fixed by an upcoming firmware update. However, their final definitive answer is still pending. They promised to contact me within a couple of days.

    Thread Voice Input problem with Gear S2 Classic, Please Help!

    Hi. I've recently purchased Gear S2 Classic, updated to the latest firmware and smartphone apps/plugin/service. I am facing a strange problem with voice recognition. S-Voice App on the watch works 100% perfectly, and can easily recognize and transcript my voice. However, in all other apps, when...

    Post Car Mode for Galaxy (works with mirrorlink)

    OK, you didn't find it because the apk name doesn't include the word "car", it's com.sec.android.automotive.drivelink That's one reason why ES Explorer is much better. It is not simply a file browser or manager. The APP function is ES is a complete App management solution.

    Post Car Mode for Galaxy (works with mirrorlink)

    You can use an app like ES File Explorer File Manager which you can use to back up any app. There are a lot of similar apps but this one provides better names for the backed up apks (App name+vesion).

    Post Car Mode for Galaxy (works with mirrorlink)

    Good. I think we should (cautiously) give Samsung credit for their responsive support. Also, may I ask you to upload the APK? I may give it a try myself but mostly for other people who may search the forums for it.

    Post Car Mode for Galaxy (works with mirrorlink)

    It's most probably because of the different ROM. I live in the UAE, and use XSG (open/unlocked) ROM. If you use a carrier device, you'll always get different things here or there. I am not sure you can flash other Samsung ROM's if you use USA carrier devices (different model numbers from the...

    Post Car Mode for Galaxy (works with mirrorlink)

    At first, I also couldn't find Car Mode in GALAXY Apps (UAE) so I called Samsung support and they said they would look into the problem and make it compatible with my device. I thought it's just another generic response, but less than 24 hours Car Mode re-appeared in GALAXY Apps with a slightly...

    Post S Note, Watch ON, S5 Message,S5 FileManager, Calendar and more from S5

    Here you go: https://db.tt/L1C3zIOf By the way, I got this on my Galaxy S4. You can also get it from Samsung Apps (along with RunKeeper) by installing S-Health 3 and then find "add more applications" where you find the two apps and get redirected to Samsung Apps.

    Post [ROM-AOSP] OFFICIAL CM11.0 KFire HD 8.9 (KK 4.4.2) [05/20 AUDIO/CAMERA FIXES]

    I've tried the new Amazon Appstore on a Rooted AOSP 4.4 Nexus 4 and it worked without issues. Also on stock Nexus 10 and Galaxy S4. These are all the devices I have and I only see force-close on KFHD 8.9 (CM). Still have no idea why..

    I am unable to get the new Amazon AppStore to run on this rom. Immediately force-closes. The same problem happened when updated the Amazon appstore on the 11-15 CM10.2 build. There is a similar comment on that thread by another user but without reply. I tried re-installing, clearing data, and...

    1st of all, I must thank Hashcode for his amazing effort. Without his ROM, I would have sold my KFHD long ago. 2nd: I don't know what is going on with the guys with broken YouTube app. I upgraded from 13-July build to 17-July, and my YouTube app works just fine. I tried 20 different videos...

    Post [Q] Backup S Health data

    I also wish that Samsung Account Backup includes all Samsung Apps (S Health, WatchON, and the rest). This is how Apple use iCloud. Meanwhile, you can always use Helium Backup https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.backup Or, if you are rooted, then many Backup apps will...

    Post [fix]fix for smearing issue [updated 19/7/2013]

    I guess we have a true fix after all. I wonder if Samsung would embrace it in their stock ROMs. XDA geniuses here would not get paid and some lazy Samsung engineers will get their salary as usual, but at least all GS4 users will be able to use their devices in bed before going to sleep (as it is...

    I've so many screenshots with everything from zero to hero. This thread is a bit confusing as it is. I wish someone with enough time and knowledge to use all these valuable feedback and experiments from users to compile a guide for both GS4 versions.

    Post HELP My GS4 GT-i9500 can't upgrade firmware?

    No, this is actually a fail-safe way to upgrade your firmware in case the automatic Kies updater fails. You'll get to a step where you'll choose to factory reset or not, and you can always back up and restore data from Kies (you can back up before the whole upgrade process). Odin is good...
