It's no longer available on the S2 as part of Samsung's continued effort to debloat. You may just want to use Google Voice Search instead; it's significantly faster (but slightly less powerful) than S Voice, but if you absolutely must have it, you may want to try sideloading. Don't know if it works or not, nobody else has ever asked for S Voice!

Pretty rubbish tbh. Firstly reports incompatible with all devices, yeah right. cortana hardly speaks, cannot answer many questions or perform some tasks.
Google voice is much better.

Wouldn't surprise me, Samsung one who has to call foul on that. But input from user gets their case going. Same issue when Google called foul on Samsung for blocking gapps on their s6, using android only requires openness to gapps.

The T-Mobile version also has the VZW LTE bands. I read somewhere, that if you launch it first time without a sim in it. You might skip the loading, or installing of carrier bloatware. Nothing confirmed, but a few people theorizing.
If I had known that I would definitely try it.

Nothing in life is guaranteed and we obviously cant predict if samsung finds a way to force the updates despite being blocked....its common sense really.
That said it blocked the first BS update on my exynos and its blocked the current BS update on my snapdragon so we are 2 for 2 lol

Hi guys. Does this APK (on first post) require validation/authentication for it to work? From what I understand, even you buy on Playstore it won't activate this older version.
---------- Post added at 11:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:17 AM ----------
I've just read on Playstore reviews that "buying lastest version then replacing with this version" doesn't work anymore. Any other alternatives? Is a custom ROM the best option at the moment? I currently don't have the 60% battery OTA update installed, just the green battery icon at 100% (charging very slow). Thanks.

The samsung one exploits a feature in Knox. LG doesn't have something like Knox so I doubt it. Probably disables apps you can disable anyways.

I tried that app on the g5 and it didn't work so I doubt it will work on the G6

it works on my V20 and no,i couldnt disable all of services anyway !?!?!

I have this app on my G6. I got it because I the Samsung version worked well on my stock S6. You have to install a "LG Service" plug in app to make this app work. Similar plug-in required for Samsung Nougat devices. It wasn't required for MM and earlier Android versions. I was able to disable the T-Mobile app on my G6 with this. You can't disable the T-Mobile app through the setting>app menu.

I haven't tried this yet. But was reading through and to answer your question, Web View doesn't technically exist in Nougat. Its a placeholder because it's more integrated. There's also a toggle for webview settings in Developer Options.

Yes, i said I'd make a video but never got to it so I did it really fast this morning.
I didn't add telephony.
I disable LG Calendar, LG Keyboard & LG Clock. I use Google Calendar, clock, & GBoard to compensate.
AnswerMe i believe is gesture answering and crap like flip to ignore/silence calls. Don't need it.
In my opinion, pretty much all the, "smart" crap LG gives their devices is worthless.
I keep the home installed (with app drawer) but I don't use it. I use the Oreo Pixel Launcher or Nova Prime.
Some of the apps I'd disabled in that video you can actually uninstall, such as T-MOBILE TV, T-MOBILE ID, ETC.
I also disable Duo because I use hangouts.

To get this to work you have to set lg service as admin and then run the lg service app.. It will close immediately, but that will activate it. Now you can open up the disabler app and disable packages.

Disabled Bixby

I am a Google Assistant user and absolutely hate Bixby, especially that damn button! So I figured out a way to totally disable it, including the button.
1. Download Package Disabler Pro from the Play Store
2. Open it up and do a search for "Bixby"
3. Put a check mark in every box that has the word "Bixby" in it.
4. Reboot phone.
5. No more Bixby and it deactivates the button.

Then why would you suggest this approach? This is way too risky for me. At least with Package Disabler Pro you can always re-enable things if you need to.

Maybe do a Google search for Samsung/Oreo bloatware. There is also an option in the app to disable all bloatware, but that's too general for me.

Some may consider the app Package Disabler Pro "bloat" when you can use ADB to remove/disable items that you know w/certainty you will not use/need.
I'm not in that camp,but,others may be,or,just don't want to cough up the cost of the app.
I definitely plan on using Package Disabler Pro,for the very reason you stated,ease of re-enabling w/o a factory reset.

If the Bixby button is a problem. You can remap it to use Google Assistant with bxActions. Worked for me on my SGS8+
Skickat från min SM-G955F via Tapatalk

Not with Note 9. Bxaction is still sorting through Bixby 2.0. I remapped it as my back button. It works, but its buggy.
Trying Bixby see what it has to offer.

Am I the only one to sense that this is promotional post.

Yep, you're the only one. I started this post to share how I disabled it. Troll elsewhere.

If you're rooted, you can remap the button. Already done with mine and it works perfectly.
This; https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/how-to/root-remap-bixby-button-o-app-t3601061
Then you can use Button Remapper, and it will pick up the key.
