so im trying to enable knox on the galaxy s6 like how it was on my s4 where it would completely load almost a different user for the phone. I've tried the one on the google play store but it doesn't work the same way. I see knox II running in the back round but cant find the way to launch it. any1 have any ideas?

Just got the 7000 note over the Att note even though the att note as lte... seems like the international some how is more stable.. i do have a few questions.. Did I make the right choice to get the international over ATT note?
1. I cannot download the samsung apps that are in the samsung apps application.. It gets me to the sign in screen but then I cannot get beyond the sign in screen .. I do have an account and it has been verified.. Anything I can check to try to get the applications downloaded.. it was an icon on the phone..
2. I have so many facebook contacts but I dont necessarily want theire emails/phone numbers appearing in my contacts.. i just want to be able to add phone numbers and emails on my own.. There is some kind of sync i am sure but I just want to be able to add phone numbers to my own do i save them to the sim card the phone the sd card.. i dont know where they are so i need help with that
3. Also how does video calling work.. . I would like to use it but I would like to know how it works..
4. I notice the unit shuts off sometimes when its dark is that normal it does a full reboot..
5. Is there any galaxy unlocked note like in canada that would have a toggle between lte/hspa+ . I think there is one in Canada.. i may prefer that one.. but i didnt buy the att one due to disableing fm radio and such...
I will probably have more questions later..

I am not overly Familiar with the ATT note (other then reviews) but I will try to answer as many questions as I can.
1. The Samsung APP sounds like the Samsung App is crashing (if its not displaying anything after loggin). Check to see if there is any software updates for your phone. If not you may need to do a Factory reset,I would not do this is you are running ICS as it could harm your phone.
On the plus side Most apps in the Samsung App-store are also available in the Google Play-store.
2. Go to Settings > Sync Settings and chose you Apps (Facebook, etc) in its setting un-tick the Sync Contacts Box
3. Yes Video calling works fine for me
4. Full reboots are not Normal but are normal caused by a application that is misbehaving. Finding it will be a process of elimination.
5. I believe all the LTE notes should be able to drop down to hspa+. The problem is that there are quite a few different LTE frequencies and no 1 Note can use them all so you are pretty much locked into buying it from your Carrier.
Hope this helps

I am running ics at the moment on the international 7000 I'm happy with the phone still can't download apps from the samsung apps store i think i fixed the contacts problem there must be away to download them
i didn't find the apps in the google play store
I have been looking, and while I have found lists for S4 and S5, I haven't found a Note 3 specific list of apps safe to freeze. I finally got tired of my phone having wakelock issues, and S Finder annoying me, so I finally rooted. First order of business is freezing all the bloat. If anyone knows of a good list, or if the S4 or S5 lists will work, I would much appreciate it

Check the development section. There is a debloat script that you can run to get rid of all the Samsung/AT&T bloatware. However, that requires you to have recovery. If you just want to freeze some apps that you don't need, you can use that debloat script as reference to manually freeze some apks.

Me, too! I just rooted mine and installed Titanium Backup Pro to freeze some of the applications that I KNOW are useless bloatware. My problem is; despite freezing them, when I reboot my phone, they come back like a bad case of the flu.
I need to stop the madness. My battery is dropping like a madman.
Uninstall them, that's what I did

Hi guys,
I have some experience with rioting Samsung devices and othet devices as well, however recently sported on the page claiming the one click root for Note 5.
Currently I own this device and wanted to uninstall lots of bloatware pre-installed in Note 5, therefore decided to root my device.
I need advice from you whether this one click root will work or is it just a virus or something like that?
Unfortunately I am unable to poste the link, bu if you google it, it will appear ons top
There is no "one click root" for any of the newer Samsung flagship devices. Also, uninstalling bloatware won't get you anything more than just disabling it.
I have used Disabler pro, which does not require rooting, but after disabling software, they still run in the background and use RAM.
That is why I need to uninstall them.
Is there any efficcient way to root Note 5, Without installing Custom kernel??
something is wrong if a disabled app can still be ran. usually, you can't even open a disabled app, your self.

So I got the virtual reality headset for my s6 the other day and it isn't working right with my s6. I'm wondering if anyone else bought it and got it working? I'm also on the firmware that we can root so I'm wondering if I need to update to the most recent firmware so it can work right.
I'm on 5.1.1, but I had to do a factory reset to get the facebook app manager to install correctly. I'm not super thrilled about having to use all the facebook apps. (yes I know Facebook owns oculus now) If you used any of the package disablers, make sure to unfreeze all the facebook apps before you start installing the oculus apps.
I figured out what the problem was. I needed to update to 5.1.1 . It was hard for me to do cause I didn't want to lose root. I did the upgrade and it works great. For 99$ the gear vr 2 is really cool. The only thing that sucks is that the apps are pretty expensive.
I have been trying all the advice I can find for two weeks. It's an obsession now, it's not healthy. Any help would be life changing. I have a lot of experience flashing roms and tinkering, I've been doing this for several years... like since CM7 with multiple phones. usually I can follow some instructions and make things work but this has been an epic fail.
I have a galaxy s3 and an s4 I've tried gear manager on both.... connects fine with a touchwiz ROM on the phone(s)., but I despise touchwiz and I'd rather get rid of the watch if I have to. I almost always use AOSP roms... currently CM13. gear will not work. I've tried editing build.prop changing samsung to htc. I've downloaded .apk's for gear plugin and samsung accessory service and install before and after gear manager. I've tried multiple older versions.
the latest stumbling block is an error message that says, "check if your phone is compatible and if the samsung gear app needs to be updated"
has anyone seen this message, I can't find any similar problems on this site or anywhere else?
am I missing something. did they update the gear app and now previous solutions are not working?
Thanks for your help. XDA usually saves me! I have never had to ask for help before.
I had the same issue with my Galaxy s5 kltedv with AICP Nougat custom rom. I got the Gear S3 and downloaded the gear manager app but it wouldn't open due to it "detecting and unauthorised OS." In the meantime I've had to return to the stock touchwiz (MM) rom to get it to work. Seems ridiculous that the app won't open with a custom rom yet it can be used on non Samsung phones. I'm still hunting around for an answer/solution so can't help you out just yet.
Found a work around answer for you at https://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-s2/help/samsung-devices-running-cm13-12-1-pair-t3290076
2Mecky: Try editing your build.prop and replace your make with "google" or "htc". I've been able to get as far as getting the manager to open on my S5, but I can't get it to detect my Gear 2. I just got the watch today, though so I haven't had a lot of time to mess around. I am kind of surprised that I was able to get this far, though.
