New Update stops the ability to keep paid themes from theme store....... - T-Mobile Note 7 Questions & Answers

Prior to the new Note 7 update (green battery icon) You were able to download a paid theme from theme store trial and keep it applied by Downloading Samsung Package Disabler and disabling both theme programs after applying the trial and then going to applications and clearing the data on themes and cache and it would stick permanently until you disable everything and reverse the process. This no longer works with new update. System only allows you to clear cache and not theme data anymore.........Samsung is cracking the whip, think there is any way around this? I loved changing my theme frequently.

So your mad that Samsung patched how users were getting paid themes for free? I'm sorry but they did what they had to do because those themers worked hard on their themes for the community and because of it i don't see why a little bit of change out of someone's pocket is something a person should be getting mad about. Just pay for the themes instead of trying to find a way around it they don't even cost that much especially when you own almost a $900 phone.

@jovy23...question bro...i got the new note7...didnt update though...does the root method still work if update is taken?

Nope but I think you know that by now. Curious..mine hasn't auto updated. I'm guessing once you connect to wifi (I haven't) it auto updates?

I have my v1 set like this....hope to get replacement tomorrow and avoid the update.

Not mad, was just informing the community that this method doesn't work any more so they can decide whether they want to update their software or not when they receive their Note 7 replacement, thats all. Not losing any sleep over it lol there are plenty of good free themes and I've also purchased a few. Just being informative.

My issue is that I had a bunch of themes I paid for on my first note 7 and now they don't show up on my new phone no matter what I do. I signed in to Sammy acct and synced but nothing shows up.

Most themes aren't updated to support the note 7 yet. I have like ~25 themes I can see on my purchase history on the s7edge but only like 10 on the note 7

Be careful what you say on here I mentioned a nap one day that I use to remove ads but it also allows people to get free coins which I really don't care about but because I mentioned that app I was reprimanded. Then you can get yourself banned XDA. Just a heads up..

Thanks. Weird cuz I read about that method on these very same forums lol But I understand what you're saying. I'll be a little more careful.

Still working, need to clear the cache and data, from the same package disabler.
Just click the themes and samsung themes apps in the same package disabler and clear data from there after disable it.

Downloaded and installed this app, applied some of the tweaks (3g boost, battery save, etc), just some of the general tweaks and when everything applied successfully, I lost 3g and now I'm constantly in 'roaming' Any idea why?

That happened to me too. And removing all the tweaks didn't help either. So i did another clean install, tried again and same thing. Was in roaming. So i did yet another clean install and didn't tweak 3G or WiFi and it was fine after.

Next day after I installed the ROM and was very pleased and even excited by the great job done by developers,my antivirus caught Trjan.AndroidOS.Generic.A Malware! Surprise! Surpeise!
And was more than strange is that it wasn't possible to uninstall it! One more Surprise!
So if this stuff will destroy my Note 2 who will take responsibility? Who will open the wallet for getting a new device for me? Of course it will not be you,cyber geniuses!!

mobile AVs usually have a lot of false positives, that's why I don't find the need for one. also this app is pretty much pointless as are all of these "oh let's make your performance better" apps. perfect example of the placebo effect.

most "performance apps" just add things to build.prop, system/etc/init.d/****, or just mass-force-stop apps that just restart due to programming, most things apps liek those, and pimp-my-rom do can be done by the user, they just make it easier with a snappy UI for the
uneducated root-user" with no offence to any lol, even before i built my rom, and some apps, ive done more then the tweaks for stability that these aps do since i was brought up with linux, mid-early-to-newer windows(95-7), and have been observing codes since i was 7 (and im currently 18 as of now), so if u look at different Tutorials for linux-distros, and compare to Android alot are basicly the same as android is based of linux, just some terminal commands are different, and we use superuser/Super SU, to do root-commands like linux's sudo, but not all codes can give 100% positives for all things, or even 100% false (unless it was just a scam paid app that gives random official apps like facebook, gmail, google play store once, a false positive; most newer "official security apps", arent really coded to do as they say they do, some look at their permissions and if say "android.permissions.ACCESS_SUPERUSER" is one, it counts it as generic malware, because it reads its a root-capable app, even if its just a blank package with only permissions, no images, no operation codes "src/", just a blank package with no XML's but Androidmaniefest.xml for permisssions+package name/versions lol i always hated when people use the common day paranoia of viruses now a days, but linux-based devices are least likely to get viruses, as androids newer versions have bug-fixes, securities, and detections, +most of the apps that ARE malware need root, that the common user doesnt know what it is lol, i bet u if u have with people who ARE NOT developers, and just use it for games+phone/texting if u ask them if their phones rooted, ask what their operating software for their computer is, or even what android:IOS(apple) version are u on, the most common answers ive been given here in Parkersburg, are(in question order):
-whats rooted?
-umm, idk what that is, i was told it was a windows 8 computeror has a windows 8 sticker)?... idk
-?...?....what?...
so most average-day people arent educated on the true purpose androids can give u when a Root-User(SU) since its almost FULL Linux!, like pin-testing software or networks, computer network analysis, Syncing files, Virtual Distribution Testing, OTA USB Triggers to reprogram Computers OS On-Computer-Boot, Reverse tracking Locations/Numbers, Re-Routing where people can Ping you on windows/linux/Mas OS to ANY location path (fun when i have people do it and it makes it look like in in the United States FSA Headquarters, Google Headquarters, then to the NASA Building), Nintendo Zone Hotspot for free special Gold-Bottomed mii's if u cant goto a official Zone, MAC-Address spoofing on-boot, FULL VPN-Capabilities not just location+site unblocking, DNS Location Changing(so any website sees u dont exist/different Global location/Full Network Privlages, even adding more things then BusyBox could ever do! and more then 99% of people dont know that the $100+
USD Device they have in their hands can do more things then an average Super Computer of the mid-to-late 2000s sometimes even better then super computers today even, just not as fast as the super computers ive messed with had 12*16GB Ram-sticks and a 200GB Swap backup XD
u think high-speed internets fast sometimes, u try downloading 5TB(1024GB*5) of files in under 2 mins with DSL connections XDD, so basicly what im trying to say is that not all apps are what they say to be, some work, some dont, some are just scams for a quick buck to do something that will just make it worse, or somethign u have to test longer then the Google Play's 15Min refund period that if its past that, they dont have to give refunds lol

btw... why are u flashing roms on a Note2 if this specific forum is for the Samsung Fascinate SCH-I500 (fascinatemtd code_name)? if u flash roms in this forum no1 is paying u for a bricked device u didnt read the disclaimer from the rom-developer is its for a FASCINATE, but we are a friendly forum where critisism is to be done lightly, and family-friendly, Root-Apps always have the default disclaimer whether posted or not of
"USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!, Not all tweaks/mods/features are meant for EVERY DEVICE, there is over thousands of device models and cannot be tested on all, MAKE BACKUPS, AS I AM NOT RESPONCABLE IF U BRICK YOUR DEVICE FOR NOT FOLLOWING THIS DISCLAIMER!"
as rooting your device/Flashign a rooted rom is a "USER ACTION", meaning u made the choice to do it, so nobody else is responcible for the damages cause when u voided your warrenty due to user modifications if u arent using a "DEVELOPER_EDITION", like i use, all-in-all user modifications whether its Hardware, Software, Add-Ons, or even accidentials, its still done by user actions, and nobody else is responcible for refurbishing, remanufacturing, or repairs if done by the owner of the device itself, with or without approval of others
*Edit#1*if u really want me to prove it to you, u can post the APK file u installed, as i can run whats called a Signature_test, and compare the sizes, MD5-Hash, and everything u might need to see if its the official Pimp-My-Rom App, and not a Uuser-Modded version of the open-sourced app as it is

Mine just updated to the new version. But then again im stock and unrooted.
Has anyone been able to get it to work on non-Sense based ROMs? I've seen a few out there that say it will work, but they involve using cracked apks and I just don't feel safe putting my financial information into one of those.
(Edit) I know its still early on with it, just popping the question out there to see if anyone has had success tinkering with it yet.(/edit)
Looks like the same version that is in the PlayStore currently.

Yes, it is. Keep in mind, however, that this is a staged rollout and as a result not everyone can see it in the Play Store.
I am guessing that the rollout is based on device so I would honestly imagine all Sprint Ones can see it but that is just a complete guess.

The update broke the app for me... Went from making nfc payments on the regular to not being able to open the app without it stopping immediately.
{update} uninstalling and re-installing the app fixed the "unexpected stop" issue for me, in case anyone else had the same issue. {/update}
(and shouldn't this be in the apps section?)

Am amazed people would trust a random apk on xda-dev for Wallet. Then again, a malicious ROM dev could have back door access to all your accounts, so I guess it's not much different.
Still doesn't seem to allow NFC payments for stock cyanogenmod though. Not a huge deal as I don't need at all though would have been nice if they would enable the NFC payments for all phones too. The app just adds the ability to send money from friend to friend.

This random apk from a dev on xda is cryptographically signed by Google. It is identical to the one put up in the market.

Google's explanation for this is that, with a rooted and/or romed phone, they (Google) do not have the same confidence in the security of your banking data. I think it's an ass covering situation so that if something does happen, people can't blame the app (and Google)
Sent from my beige box using xda premium
This is actually a problem not with cyanogenmod but with the HTC one's implementation on cyanogenmod(maybe others). My nexus s running cyanogenmod works with google wallet's nfc perfectly. Usually they just give a warning saying that your phone is rooted that that it might not be secure.

So what you're essentially saying is that it isn't a problem with Cyanogenmod but rather that it is a problem with Cyanogenmod's official builds for the HTC One? It's like saying it's not Steve's fault but that it's actually Steve's fault.

I'm trying to say its not global to cyanogenmod builds across phones and I don't belive google is actively blocking it for the sole reason it is a aftermarket ROM. From my understanding to get it working the build.prop just needs to be modified to match the original phone, which changing these values in cyanogenmod's code is a design decision/organizational decision causing google wallet to think that its a phone that might not have nfc. I'm sure there is a way for them to detect NFC but they are taking the safe secure road and using some sort of lookup for each phone.

I've gone through pretty much every line where the CM team did something that would break compatibility(such as using m7spr instead of m7wls) and it has never worked for me. They may have removed something from the build.prop that caused it, but I don't really see that as likely. I mean if all that was needed was a slight change to that it would already have been done and merged into the nightlies.

I tried the same and got nothing. I don't what they're using to verify now.
This post discuses what was done to crack the apk and make Tap-to-Pay work. I don't trust cracked financial apps though, regardless of how open they are about it. Maybe it could lead to a fix for CM10.2?

Yea that apk worked. The apk was modded to get galaxy nexus as os from whatever phone its installed to. So NFC tap and pay will work but it also need wallets cert keys which cm 10.2 does have so nfc stuff can work. I'm not sure what we can do in rom that's similar. It seems it's not getting info from the build.prop

I wonder if a fix for this type of issue is something we can expect as a result of Cyanogenmod going commercial. It may be easier for them to get general approval as a company than it was for them to get it as a bunch of random developers working for the greater good.

[6/7][Trailblazer101] SBrowser Returns! w/ FingerPrint AutoComplete

Trailblazer101: SBrowser Returns! w/ FingerPrint AutoComplete
Hey Everyone! Now that we are officially rooted, time to have some fun! I'll start off with with this little package: It brings back the SBrowser, which has the ability to autocomplete fields with the tap of your finger(print)!
You'll have to flash this package with FlashFire, since we don't have a custom recovery yet. This doesn't trip knox, it still says "Official" within Download Mode :3
Once installed you should go to Settings -> Lock screen and security -> Fingerprint -> *enable* Web sign-in. NO that wasn't there before, I had to re-enable it
Now just test it out with Facebook-- log in, and it'll pop up a dialog asking if it should save the credentials. ***Make sure to click *use fingerprint* if that's what you wanna do!***
Developer Note: If you like my work, and want me to keep doing stuff for the S6 Edge, show that donation link in my profile to the left some love :3 Not a single person donated for my Quick Launch and Music Player Feeds, and honestly it's a little discouraging, when over 3,500 people downloaded my work. I'm not demanding money, and I'm still releasing stuff for free, but how much is up to you guys (time I spend working on my other job [I make my own hours] vs this). Every little bit helps, and would me much appreciated. I will also listen to your requests for features on my previous Feeds, and suggestions for upcoming ones!

Probably not, since the Edge Settings has settings for the Edge Screen, and that might freak the phone out. However, if you send me your SecSettings2 folder within priv-apps, I'll get it working for you/everyone else!
So does this only work for sbrowser? Thanks for all you do, I've never downloaded your apps, but if I do I will donate for sure. I'm a programmer as well, I know the countless hours it takes

Yeah, this is native support for the fingerprint reader, which I wanted to have and was upset that they took it out. So I got it back xD However if you want to be able to use your fingerprint for AutoComplete within other browsers I believe LastPass is, or is on its way towards being, able to do similar behavior. And thank you for the sentiment, even just that is appreciated. The community that can share for 'free', where the ones that have a few dollars to share to those who do provide services they use, is the best kind of community, that should be able to thrive here!
Where can I get flashfire? Thanks

Here's the instructions, over here! : XDA Thread Link. Or you could just extract the zip, and put everything where it should be manually using adb or a root explorer, but make sure to set the permissions, then!

Yeah, this is native support for the fingerprint reader, which I wanted to have and was upset that they took it out. So I got it back xD However if you want to be able to use your fingerprint for AutoComplete within other browsers I believe LastPass is, or is on its way towards being, able to do similar behavior. And thank you for the sentiment, even just that is appreciated. The community that can share for 'free', where the ones that have a few dollars to share to those who do provide services they use, is the best kind of community, that should be able to thrive here!

If you flashed my package for it, the one found here, it should definitely work! Note it will not be called 'SBrowser' in the Application Drawer, it'll be called 'Internet' with a globe-type icon. Also make sure to go through all the folders, because it may have automatically been put in one. Send me a PM if you still aren't having luck!

How can I use Samsung Pay?

I've installed the latest version of Samsung pay and when I put my thumb print it just flashes and nothing happens. Is there anything I need to do to make it work?

You do know there is a recall on the note 7 and samsung is shutting down everything for them.
I used mines a few weeks ago. but a few days ago. I got an update sayin that will be the last update and the note 7 is no longer going to be supported with samsung pay.
I used a updated 7 Edge apk and it works ?!

You have to also install the framework APK dig around I'm sure you'll find it then it will work fine

Here's the link for the Samsung Pay apk http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsun...ease/samsung-pay-2-5-02-android-apk-download/
Here's the link for the Samsung Pay Framework apk http://www.sammobile.com/apk/samsung-pay-framework/
Here's what Samsung Pay should look like after you update:
There's a newer version out (2.5.02) but I can't seem to find the apk anywhere, so until it shows up this version is the newest I could get. Also I had to disable Samsung Push and Samsung Galaxy Services or Apps (can't recall which it was in package disabler pro) in order for this to work. Hope this helps and good luck ??.
Newest version is out yay!

Shanda. I want to be sure I follow you. If I follow your steps I can use Samsung Pay on my Note 7 and connect to my Gear S3 Frontier? I'm wary of updating directly through Samsung Apps.
UPDATE: So, I did this and had an unexpected outcome! I downloaded the .apk with the highest number (2.7.46) and when installed was prompted to install a sim card from Korea!!! That version was uploaded in Dec while 2.6.0 was uploaded just today!!! Anyway, the version with the largest number obviously doesn't belong on this page as you'll be prompted for a Korean sim. Why it's there, I don't know. Other than that, everything went fine! I will try now setting up SP on my Gear S Frontier and let you guys know if that goes alright.
LATER: So this is what happened. I started setting up SP on my Gear S3 and got prompted to update the app on the phone!!! The first time I backed out, but the second time I tried again and was still prompted to update, I went ahead and tapped 'Update'. All that happened was that the SPay app on my phone went to the page showing the update status which was 2.6.0 since I had just side loaded it. It did not try to update again through Samsung's servers, whew!! I had to reenter my card then confirm with my bank to get two tokens activated, one for the phone and one for the watch. I'm now in business!!!
After all that it seems all Samsung does to disable SP on the Note 7 is to not allow it to work if you update directly through their servers. That was the little bit of info I needed clarification on since I've seen some people post that you need a 'compatible version' which really isn't true. You just must side load any future updates for it to work on the Note 7.

Thanks for your reply!!! I'm wondering if it's possible to have SP enabled on both the watch and phone at the same time? I was using it on phone alone before. Now that I set it up on the watch, I see that my card has disappeared from my phone screen!! I had my phone out in a line today so just decided to pay from the phone and noticed it was no longer there.

Hi RaymondPJR,
Sorry I didn't see your post until just now. I'm glad you were able to get it working, if you have any other questions or need links to the apks I'm usually on https://note7alliance.com/, I hardly check XDA anymore ?.

Thanks, it's still not there although I have all three boxes enabled. I seem to remember selecting a setting to use the Gear S to keep my phone's screen unlocked. Maybe that setting is what's causing SP to no longer display on my phone. I think SP requires some authentication enabled on the phone to be able to use it.!

New version of Samsung Pay available. I thought I'd skip it, but it refuses to work anymore unless you update it. It's available in the link Shanda gave on the last page.
EDIT: Ignore above advice. I got fooled into loading the latest version, 2.8.30 which is a Korean version. Apkmirror doesn't distinguish between what countries the .apk's are for. However, someone pointed out to me that the SP .apk's for the US would be over 60 mb in size. The correct one is 2.7.03 for the US. They are too large to attach else I would.

And if you are dealing with SP on the Gear S. First update Samsung Pay on your phone. Then open Samsung Pay in Gear Manager app. It will then do it's thing, the two will match up, and you'll be good to go.
Anybody getting this? SP on my watch is working fine. On my phone I get this notification and using fingerprint as security unlock is greyed out.
EDIT: Damn, it's the wrong .apk!!!! Anybody got the one for this country?
EDIT: Ok, I found the right .apk through the app called 'Aptoide'. I have it installed but haven't set up my card yet. However, I don't get the 'use Korean Sim card' error.
EDIT: Giving up for now. Getting that error again, seems nothing works.
EDIT: Giving up must have been what it took. Got it installed finally! Just need to call the bank. My phone now reports that version 2.7.03 is the latest not 2.8.30:laugh: Latest SP framework version is 2.7.51 as I reported above.

Samsung is permanently crippling the Note 7 in the U.S.

You knew it was coming in the USA and it looks like December 19 is the day.

What's to stop people from not accepting this update just like the previous one? Unless it's a forced update it won't really change anything

When you reboot the device it will do the updates on one of the reboots.This is true even if you "delayed" the update.
There is a way to prevent the previous update (you can see on this forum). Unless they found a way around that work around good chances that the same work around would work for this update. I would recommend doing the work around now and before this update.
The work around for previous update. Hope this will work for this update too.

I read someplace today that Samsung made a request to the makers of all package disablers on the Playstore to block the Note 7 from being able to take advantage of this... I'll try and find the article.
The one i found isnt supported by the playstore and still has the update packages. Look at the link JaguarXT posted
I highly doubt all the apps are getting on board. I used titanium to block a lot of samsung crap before this and I never got the last update and I won't get this update either.
According to what I read, T-Mobile will be pushing the update on December 27th, that's what CNET is reporting. It also mentions the dates for AT&T as well as Sprint.
Yep I got text from tmobile says starting 27 phone won't be able to charge so turn it in.
Looking like it's time to find a replacement, sadly nothing seems up to par
It will seem like a bold change from what I know and am used to but I'm considering the Honor 8. The specs don't seem to bad for the price point. But it's definitely not a Note 7. I was thinking about going back to the Note 5 but I don't even see it available on the T-Mobile website anymore.

That's because you had the good foresight to root, unlike some of us (pointing at myself). Samsung strong-armed all the package disabler devs on the Play Store to no longer block System apps! The way around it was then to purchase the new version anyway and obtain a license, uninstall, then side load an older version. But then in another update even that route was blocked by no longer granting licenses or something. Then someone provided another app independent of the Play Store to side load which is what is being referred to above. It's gotten nasty!!!! Our ranks will shrink further as those who are severely technically challenged fail to take measures to block this update. Personally, I can't help but wonder/worry if Sammy has some type of back door, but that's the conspiracy theorist in me, lol!

I agree and I will probably change to the cheapest samsung phone to get my $100 and then switch out and use my One Plus 3 till the S8 comes out.
Gotta use my Samsung Rewards up as well... This really sux
I caved last night, I picked up the s7 edge. I'm still keeping the Note 7 though and I'll use it until I'm no longer able to.

Why? You should have just kept the Note7 until the S8 came out... now you have an obsolete phone in 3 months.
I still have the Note 7, the s7 edge worked out in my favor actually. They gave me a Gear VR and now when the next phone drops I'll give my wife the s7 edge. She still has an S5 so it will be a nice upgrade for her.
I'm lost dude. So I have the second version of the Note 7, you know, the one that was supposed to not malfunction. Model # SM-N930T with T-Mobile. OK, so my phone did receive the forced update that make my battery charge to only 60%, I was able to use ODIN and put back the stock firmware, I installed PACKAGE DISABLER PRO and blocked the necessary items needed so I am now at 100% battery life. How is it that we know that is still not enough to block this new update that is coming to cripple the Note 7??? Maybe we are still safe, or is it FACT that it WILL still be forced even though we have the updates and tmobile and Samsung items blocked? Also, with what I have explained, can my phone still be rooted and install a custom ROM or am I too late or second version of Note 7 it was never possible???? Someone please help, I am not a noob, I have been installing custom ROMs since Galaxy S2, but at the same time I am no PRO. All info will help me and the community clarify this sticky situation. PLEASE HELP. AND THANK YOU ALL!!!!! Nothing compares to the Note 7, what other phone has IRIS EYE SCANNER, a SECURE FOLDER LOCK that you can add a secondary app of one you already have with a completely different account, you can lock your notes in SAMSUNG NOTES, an S PEN, A FREAK'N S-PEN for crying out loud!!!!! No Phone compares to this dude!!!!!! HELP HELP HELP HELP!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not 100% sure but the steps with package disabler that you've done should allow you to not have to worry about the new update coming through, someone correct me if I'm wrong.
As for rooting you're out of luck, only the original firmware that shipped with the phone was rootable. After that, this is as good as it gets for us firmware wise
Thnx
