Unable to Update Samsung APPS in Latest May Security - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear All,
Usually I do not have any problem update any Samsung apps download from APKMIRROR including touchwizhome....After updated to May Security Patch, today, I try to install 6-8 latest Samsung apk from APKMIRROR like messages, weather, touchwizhome etc all failed with 'package conflicts with an existing package with the same name'...So, Samsung started to block old model to update to latest version?

1)You can update above mentioned system apps from either play store or galaxy apps If available officially for your device by samsung
2)If you still forcefully wanted to update those apps then ofcourse you need to root your device and replace the downloaded system apps to directory system/app or system priv-app respectively their original location by renaming them same as the original apk ( For eg. To update message you need to rename the downloaded apk same as you will find in system/priv-app/message related folder and apk in it)

[APK] Updating Google Market on the Huawei S7

I didn't see a thread here, but for my Huawei S7 running S7V100R001C62B113 Android 2.2.2, in order to update Android Market, these are the steps:
1) Download an updated Vending.apk from anywhere
2) Get ZipSigner2 from the market, and resign the apk into a new apk file with the 'platform key' option
3) Run the APK file with a file manager. It will ask you if you want to update the system application. After the install is complete, your market will be updated.
Google Play Store works with the Huawei S7.
v3.4.6 Google Play Store is as attached...

Samsung Apps

I can't manually update the apps from app mirror. Touchwiz home 9 is there and I want it but it says it's corrupt and can't be installed.

How can i make Updates From Samsung apps from apk mirror?

How can i install apk samsung apps from apk mirror? When i will update the Samsung apps i get always the message That the Update cant be Installed.
Unless your phone is rooted or the apk happens to be signed by Samsung for your phone, there is no side loading of system apps. Also a pet peeve of mine, but it is what it is.

Note8 and correct functionality bugs and errors.

samsung note 8 system applications can not be updated to the new version from the apk file (the original manufacturer file from apkmirror) the system shows the application not installed without any information about the error. It does not install any updates from Samsung Apps. My applications - empty, does not detect anything. Same Google Play. For example, the camera version 7.62.2 in the phone, and the new one is 8.50, you can not update it, so do the other system.

He meant, some of the Samsung system apps doesn't show updates available in the Galaxy Apps store or Play Store. There are updates to certain apps, like the camera and dialer on APK Mirror, but when you download them and try to install them, it gives an error and says the app wasn't installed. That is his issue, that he can't update some of his apps.

Some of the apps you're trying to update, like the camera, can't be updated by side-loading or downloading an APK, because it's a system app. You can't update system apps. In the case of the camera, I wouldn't want to update that anyway, because even though it's a higher version, it's not necessarily meant for the Galaxy Note 8, because the "newer" versions remove the ability to use the optical 2x zoom, which I'm sure isn't supposed to happen. I think those are updated camera APKs for different models, maybe like the A- or J-series.
What you could do, if you are rooted, is to just replace the system APKs with the updated ones you downloaded, but I wouldn't recommend that, because sometimes the updates to system apps might also depend on updates to other library files which you don't get with the APK or can't download and then might cause some problems and issues.
As far as your question about Bixy and News Republic: I have no idea. I don't use Bixby, so I don't even know how it works.

For the 2nd question, have you tried opening Bixby, go to Settings, then go to Cards, then ensure news republic is toggled on (assuming it's installed on your phone in the first place)?
no is not working that, i not see this app in screen.

Hmm if you have the app installed and it doesnt show up there in Bixby, then maybe that app is not compatible with Bixby yet?

Google Phone can't be installed

Hi. I have this device since last Saturday. I was trying today to see if I can install Google apps, because I like stock feeling of android. Now I won't keep them, because without root I can't freeze system apps, and so I would have 2 galleries, 2 message apps etc running in background.
I tried many of them, but when I tried Google phone play store says my device is not compatible.
So I tried to download the APK (arm64) but I can't install it.
Is there a way to bypass this limitation and, why the hell I can't install such an important Google app?!
You must root your smartphone with magisk then you must download Google framework install It and then download Google dialer apk not from Google play store. I have not problem and use It by default phone app
