[Discussion] NULL_ROM Official Q/A - FAQ- General Discussion thread

This is place where you can come and ask questions regarding support as well as any other general discussion for the Null rom. Please keep the development thread to just that DEVELOPMENT. The developer of this rom is here to develop and not here to answer your questions because you can't take the time to figure out the answer yourself. This will be a community driven thread. Therefore, if you feel something needs to be added to the OP please mention me in a post and I'll take a look
If you need to download the rom free to stop by the dev thread to download. However, if I see you ask a question in here and then go to that thread to ask the same question I will be handing out infractions. Please consider this your only warning.
On a side note, I'll be transferring the OP of this thread to a person with this device in due time. However, for the moment this needed to be created. If you are willing to take the OP from me please feel free to send me a PM. The only requirement that I would have is that you keep it updated properly.
FAQ / IT DOESNT WORK ! WAH
INTERNET ACCESS
GO INTO "FULL SETTINGS -> BLUETOOTH -> SELECT YOUR PHONE SETTING ICON (ON THE RIGHT OF PHONE NAME) -> TICK INTERNET ACCESS".
ENSURE BLUETOOTH TETHERING IS ENABLED ON YOUR PHONE BEFORE HAND OBVIOUSLY.
*NOTE* ENSURE YOUR MOBILE DEVICE SUPPORTS TETHERING, US VARIANT PHONES HAVE RESTRICTIONS INPLACE. REFER TO THE US INTERNET TETHERING THREAD.
*NOTE 2* BLUETOOTH TETHERING DOES NOT AUTO RECONNECT, INSTALL THIS THIRDPARTY SOLUTION ON YOUR GEAR TO ENABLE AUTO RECONNECT.
PLAYSTORE / GOOGLE ACCOUNT MANAGER HAS STOPPED..
VERIFY YOU HAVE A BLUETOOTH INTERNET TETHERING CONNECTION ESTABLISHED BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO ADD A GOOGLE ACCOUNT.
MUST NOT BE USING THIRD PARTY TETHERING, EG. PDANET.
HOW DO I FULL WIPE?
BOOT INTO RECOVERY MODE AND SELECT THE "RECOVERY" OPTION. DO THIS AFTER FLASHING THE ROM
UNABLE TO WAKE GEAR WHILE IN PHONE CALL
THIS IS CAUSED BY THE HOME BUTTON REMAP MOD, THE HOME BUTTON MUST BE PRESSED IN ORDER TO WAKE THE GEAR UP IN THIS STATE.
ONLY WORK AROUND IS TO EITHER USE THE WRIST WAKEUP GESTURE OR DISABLE THE HOME BUTTON REMAP MOD.
*NOTE* BY DISABLING THE HOME BUTTON REMAP MOD, THIS WILL DISABLE THE ABILITY TO MANUALLY LOCK THE SCREEN WHILE USING A CUSTOM LAUNCHER.
DOUBLE TAP BRIGHTNESS/SOUND TOGGLE HAS DISAPPEARED
THIS IS CAUSED BY USING THE FULL SYSTEM UI, SIMPLY PUT IT REPLACES THE DOUBLE TAP WINDOW WITH THE NOTIFICATION SHADE. BY USING GRAVITYBOX YOU CAN ADD ADDITIONAL TOGGLES LIKE BRIGHTNESS & SOUND TILES TO THE FULL NOTIFICATION SHADE.
OTHERWISE SIMPLY REFLASH THE ROM WITH THE FULL SYSTEMUI OPTION UNTICKED.
SCREEN FLICKERING/GITTERING
THIS IS CAUSED BY THE INITIAL BOOTUP, REBUILDING THE CACHE AND INITIALIZING ALL THE APPS. GIVE YOUR GEAR A FEW MINUTES TO SETUP AND RESTART.
SCREEN UNLOCKS TO NOVALAUNCHER PAGE PREVIEW?
GO INTO "NOVA SETTINGS -> GESTURES -> HOME BUTTON -> NONE".
ENABLE DEVELOPER SETTINGS / USB DEBUGGING
GO INTO "SETTINGS -> GEAR INFO -> ABOUT GEAR", TAP SOFTWARE VERSION 10 TIMES.
ENABLE UNKNOWN SOURCE APK INSTALLATION
GO INTO "FULL SETTINGS -> SECURITY -> TICK UNKNOWN SOURCES".
ENABLE MTP
GO INTO "FULL SETTINGS -> STORAGE -> MENU BUTTON (TOP RIGHT OF SCREEN) -> USB COMPUTER CONNECTION -> MEDIA DEVICE (MTP)".
WATCH STYLER NOT WORKING
ENSURE ITS SELECTED AS THE DEFAULT WATCHFACE IN GEAR MANAGER.
IF CLOCK FACE DOES NOT UPDATE UPON CHANGING, RESTART GEAR.
DOUBLE CLICK HOME BUTTON DOESNT WORK ON TOUCHWIZ LAUNCHER !
*NOTE* DO NOT DO THE FOLLOWING IF YOU ARE USING NOVALAUNCHER, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MANUALLY LOCK YOUR GEAR.
*NOTE 2* YOU CAN SIMPLY REFLASH THE ROM WITHOUT WIPING AND DISABLE THE HOME BUTTON REMAP MOD.
NAVIGATE/PULL THE FOLLOWING FILE FROM YOUR GEAR: /SYSTEM/USR/KEYLAYOUT/GPIO-KEYS.XML
EDIT IN A TEXT EDITOR SO IT LOOKS LIKE THE BELOW:
Code:
key 115 VOLUME_UP WAKE
key 114 VOLUME_DOWN WAKE
key 116 POWER WAKE
[B]key 172 HOME WAKE[/B]

Amazing. This thread is very much needed song as how the dev thread keeps getting cluttered with posts that wouldn't be there if some one would have read
sent from my Note 3 or Galaxy Gear

Yeah this thread is an awesome idea to leave the general discussion and support issues out of the other thread.

Whenever I select "recovery" it doesn't give me an option to install the rom?
I followed the steps for the root and the add the .zip to my SD card on the phone. When I select the option for recovery it just does a system restore on it. Any help?

You need to flash twrp first

feature request
[what about to include support fpr AquaMail client?
I'm using it and I think it is the better at the moment
The developer could be interesting....

Just a quick (somewhat noob) enquiry about the Gear and what this ROM can do for it, as I'm thinking of picking up a Note3 + Gear from work (Vodafone), as the watch is free.
Firstly, I hate Touchwiz with a passion! I don't wish for anyone to read that in an angry way, but I'm really not fond of the colours, themeing, etc. of that particular UI. I much prefer vanilla Android and, as such, would look to root the Note3 and install CM or an equivalent on it.
Would I then lose any functionality of the Gear? Can the GearManager APK be installed on a non-TW ROM?
I'll need a bit of an idiot's guide for the whole thing, but it's nothing I can't research.

No. Sadly not.
Or at least not with all the bells and whistles working.

I actually am testing CM11 on my note 3 as I type. I was wondering if someone could link me to the latest gear manager so I could test how it works.

Here's 2 versions. The latest and the previous one, a lot of people are having problems with the latest, and even Samsung supposedly admitted it was bugged and they were going to release a new one. The previous version seems to work fine for people, and there's no real functional updates on the latest one anyway, so you might prefer it.
Latest version - 1.5.121601
Previous version - 1.5.120903

I couldn't get cm11 to download the necessary apks for gear manager so I restored a tw backup and backed up the apks themselves. When I went to restore them the only ones that would not restore were the weather and svoice. It is paired now with gear manager running in the notifications. Still testing out what works and what doesn't

Running 16, removed Ms. Pac-Man for running too slow on the Gear, everything's running smooth.
Sent from Spaceball One.

I have nexus 5 rooted and running null16, could anyone please point me out how to make gear manager to work?has anyone made notifications work? so far i can just make calls from it and syncs the time.I have read everywhere but nothing works so far and i can't seem to find a reliable sorce of information. If we could make something like an app and null to be modified to work with that so we lose gear manager dependency i belive that would be a game changer . Fomey i will donate something pretty soon as i allways apreciate work from people creative like yourself .
EDIT: 15 AUD for you Fomey, thank you for your work !

reboot after install of null_16
i have attempted several times now to install the null_16 on my galaxy gear. after each time i attempt to go into the recovery mode to actually install it, it reboots and resets the device. i have read numerous times to flash the null_03_TWRP2.7.tar.md5 file and i have done this with odin and received a pass at the top left of the odin program and then it reboots the galaxy gear. i then install the null_16 file on the root of the sd card directory with wondershare mobilego (left zipped as noted in several videos i have watched) after this i remove device from charging device and this is when i try to go to recovery modeto install. after getting to recovery and holding power button for approximately 3 seconds and release this is when it reboots and has reset itself. any help would greatly be appreciated and yes it is rooted with supersu. I am sure i am doing something wrong but not sure what.

Download mk7 for your country.... I don't care if you are already on it just do it! Flash with Odin then flash twrp recovery..... Use adb to boot to recovery....... Trust me it works!
Sent from my Note 3 SM-N900A rooted by Designgears

OMG i got it running!
thanks so much for all the work done with this rom... Everything seems to be running perfect...
At first i couldn't get it to flash properly... I was trying everything. Took hours to initially get the recovery going. It ended up being a driver issue and after a lot of reading and troubleshooting i was finally able to get it up and running.
One question that i have that i couldn't find the answer too... Is there any way to have the watch widget (either the stock clocks or watch styler) appear as a full screen widget without the launcher or the status bar at the top... yet keep the status bar and launcher on the other pages? I am assuming that i can't do it after reading countless of pages... Because i do like the full screen watch face.
Thanks again for all the hard work!

Installing Null_ TWRP: (Version as of this tutorial is Null_ 03 TWRP)
Thanks to fOmey for this Null_ TWRP
Installing Null_ TWRP:
Preparation:
Download Null_ TWRP - fOmey
READ THE NULL_ TWRP Original Post
Installation:
Put your Gear into Download Mode
Connect your Gear to you PC.
Open Odin
Click on the PDA Button
Locate the Null_ TWRP file and select it. (It should be a .md5 file, if it is zipped, then unzip it)
Press Start
Once it is completed it will reboot the gear.
Null Quote:
If you find the recovery is not sticking & your Gear wipes when attempting to access recovery after flashing, you must root your Gear prior to installing TWRP again & Run the following commands in ADB:
*NOTE* You will gave to accept a supersuser request popup when executing "SU" command
*NOTE 2* Probably a good idea to run this prior to first installation (To save time)
Code:
$ adb shell
$ su
# mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p20 /system
# rm /system/recovery-from-boot.p
ADB stands for Android Debug Bridge
If needed "ADB" can be found here on xda - Thanks to shimp208​​

You cannot do what you are asking.... But you can set clock widget. Use Nova settings to hide notification bar, dock and scroll indicators then use gesture and button settings to create gesture to accommodate just about anything! I have swype down to open notification bar..... Swipe up open notification app.... Double tap opens app drawer and 2 finger Swipe up opens my dialer! Just set widget long press and resize to full screen. You may have to adjust colums and rows in Nova settings to accommodate whatever widget you are using in order to center properly. Hope this helps!

On the newest release (16) there is support for custom boot animation and includes the null boot animation. Is that a part of the aroma installer or is the custom null boot animation a part of the rom that you cannot remove? I'd rather stick with the stock if you don't mind.

Nougat Plugins for Tasker

I've recently upgraded to Nougat on my rooted phone and wondered how best to replicate my old Tasker profiles that were reliant on Secure Settings which appears to no longer work on Nougat (it says it cannot find root)/
The main functionality i want is the ability to turn on/off:
Airplane mode
Location Completely (when screen off)
GPS when opening apps that use maps
Mobile data
Can anyone suggest the best way to get this functionality back if its possible?

You could try some of the run shell commands from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/u/tasker-tips-tricks/best-run-shell-commands-tasker-t3419204 or use the AutoTools plugin https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joaomgcd.autotools

Majority (if not all) of Secure settings stuff is now easily available on AutoTools.

Thanks, just installed it and playing around with it and when i try to run a task it tells me 'No pemission to change settings' i see the adb command being talked about. Do i have to run that even though i'm rooted or do i just have something configured wrong?

You're gonna have to run that command. It should work fine then.

I'm on Nougat as well and I'm using Secure Settings every day, it works fine for me...

The adb command worked but my bigger problem was that my phone had lost root. All fixed now tho

You can replace Secure Settings with SecureTask plugin. Free and it works great.

Simply better. First of all it's free. In addition it has a lot of features like sync settings, failed login monitoring, settings monitoring, change pin/password, log information, data usage and much more, nothing comparing to automess.

@automess... I have used both and though autotools is 2.99 I find it more user friendly. But both are equally up to task.

First flash superSu in systemless mode in twrp.
After reboot, using terminal emulataor type the following command
su
echo "BINDSYSTEMXBIN=true" >> /data/.supersu
and reflash superSU from twrp..securesettings will be enabled...

You can actually enter that command in TWRP's terminal as well before you flash SuperSU. Saves that one extra reboot.

[ROM][TMOBILE][S7_SM-G930T][Oreo 8.0 Rooted][WifiCalling]

Updated version of this ROM: [ROM][TMOBILE][S7_SM-G930T][Oreo 8.0 Rooted][WifiCalling]G930TUVU4CRI2
ROM last updated: 10/30/2018
Introduction:
HUGE thanks to the guys that got this going like root & figuring out hybrid stocks! This ROM is a complete rewrite of my ROM [ROM][TMOBILE][S7_SM-G930T][Oreo Rooted] That ROM doesnt have WifiCalling & I couldn't get it to work for the life of me, so I rewrote it. I started with stock, and slowly stepped back making changes, reinstalling each time, confirming it still worked. About 200 installs later & 1000s of changes, this is the result. Yes, it took a LONG time. Hope you enjoy it! Don't forget to say Thanks so I know it is actually helpful to others, and continue doing this!
Description:
Stock Tmobile Oreo 8.0 modified (G930TUVU4CRF1)
EXTREMELY debloated! Nearly bare minimum, while still retaining hardware functionality. Eg, Samsung Gallery & Camera exist so we get 4k recording, and there aren't errors when we pull up the Gallery to edit, etc. Yes, this means NO Samsung or Android Pay. There could be more apps to debloat but Im out of time for now! (Please provide suggestions if interested)
Everything possible I replace Samsung with Google
Solid ROM. It was actually kind of slow for me, but I'm curious how this works for others.
Xposed is part of the guide, which will give you infinite customization & tweak-ability
If you hate Samsung SW and just want a solid working ROM with very few install options to get you up and running this is for you.
This will delete all of your data on the phone! (Not external SD card) This is the only way so don't ask. Backup your data!
Features:
Tmobile Wifi Calling works, along with Visual Voicemail & Mobile Hotspot
Many Aroma Installer app options
(Optional) KevinsFavorites option in Aroma. I'm not sure I'd recommend it due to my tastes. If you're looking for some good common apps tho, it includes: Amazon, AmazonMusic, AquaMail, Gmail, GoogleDrive, GoogleKeep, GooglePhoto, Hangouts, IFTTT, Pandora, RootBrowserClassic, TitaniumBackup, Uber, & Wink (If you install these and want to remove them later, use TitaniumBackup (or similiar) to uninstall
Root Features: See Downloads->Recommended Root Zip & say Thanks!
Debloated
De-Knoxed
Decrypted /data/ partition
OTAs disabled
Speed & Build Prop Tweaks
Dual speaker
Ruthless Launcher
Apps
AdAway
AOD Clock Face Themes
CPUSpy
DisableService
Kernel Adiutor
Samsung Video Editor and Trimmer
Xposed
Many more...

Once I FINALLY got WifiCalling to work, I thought... Imagine ALL the S7 XDA members out there with crappy Tmobile signal across Rural America that could TOTALLY use Wifi Calling!!! Haha, but seriously!! & that thought was the birth of this thread

I have so many FW packages on my PC at this point, from so many places that I used while trying to get this to work, but I think it might be a package from one of your threads(?) Since I'm not exactly sure what you're asking regarding "Ufirm FW", I'll elaborate hoping that answers your question. (Tho I'm thinking you mean the U variation/unlocked. So based on these stock files below I guess the answer is no.) If you're question is really, "is it possible to get tmobile wifi calling to work on a U model #", then I'd have to really think about that. But at this point I don't have an answer. I can tell you a million dependencies about it tho! (I seriously have hundreds of revisions I made while testing, & notes. The symbolic & meta links in Aroma initially broke it, as I found out after a week or so of testing - wish I knew a bit more about them, and why they're all there, then I'd know what was wrong about them...)
High-level process:
1)Flash Base/Stock/Oreo Rom:
- AP_G930TUVU4CRF1.tar
- BL_G930TUVU4CRF1.tar
- CP_G930TUVU4CRF1.tar
- CSC_TMB_G930TTMB4CRF1.tar
- HEROQLTE_USA_VZW.pit
2)Root with your method
3)Flash Xposed framework & my ROM (it's a "start with stock then remove what we don't want" type of Aroma/Edify script)

BTW, any idea how to prevent the "verification failed" error I mention in the OP steps, after flashing Xposed framework? I tried flashing dm-noverity but no luck. At least my guide covers it at this point tho... Thanks again

If you choose the keep safestrap option during root the it will flash the system/vendor/etc/ fstab.qcom that totally removes data encryption but when that fstab.qcom is flashed it also requires a data wipe for phone to boot then when you install xposed you won’t see that error but either way you end up wiping data so your choice

First, I want to thank you so much kevin71246. I tried your previous version as I was sick and tired of how sluggish my phone felt after the last two T-Mobile OTA updates. So far the experience on the phone has been great but I wanted to post about an issue I had with that version to see if anyone else has come across it or can figure out what is going on. The reason I am making this a reply in this thread instead of your other is because I will be flashing this update shortly but I want to get the ball rolling on the issue first.
I went through the whole process, installing the minimum with Google Apps, though I did restore everything previously installed once I log in with my Goggle Account. I am unsure if this contributed to the problem but I will not be restoring apps on the next try. It seems no matter what process I attempt to connect my Ticwatch E to my S7 the Wear OS app will not recognize it which causes the watch to get stuck in the setup phase, making it useless. This was after multiple and different connection attempts, resets, reboots and factory (watch only) restores. The watch will show up under bluetooth and create the initial connection but it will not stay connected. Anyone have any idea? Is this ROM missing something?
Edit: Mid way through the install, I wanted to note that I checked for the issue after doing the "Install Stock Oreo" but before Root and everything worked as it should. Wear OS sees the watch instantly and Bluetooth connects fine.
Edit: So I am a day into using the ROM and I am still having issues. While it will connect and work perfectly fine now, when ever I do a reboot of the phone the watch no longer connects. I will just get constant Bluetooth Connection Requests, every single time the watch tries to get data, and it never actually connects. To fix this I need to do a complete reset of the watch and do the whole setup process again. As you can imagine this is no good, expecting to wipe my watch every time my phone reboots makes it still almost useless.

I believe I know what the issue is, I'm testing a fix (for THIS ROM) as we speak. Stay tuned. Maybe tomorrow if I have time and it works I'll update the OP. BTW, this ROM and my other ROM are TOTALLY different. Thanks for the feedback!

New version, see change log in OP for details.

Yeah i.a give this a shot in a little. Do I need to root phone or can I just flash through Odin. Sorry not used to this locked bootloader crap..... s8crj1 are the last 6 digits of the software I'm on. I did receive the latest update will this effect me installing this.

since bootloader is locked you can't use TWRP so you have to use Flashfire to install this ROM, as you know flashfire required root so you have to setup the base per OP and then root the base then install the ROM and then root it again, read the first page I don't think you will get a instructions more detailed then his

Okay so I just realised I was posting comments on the old thread, my bad. Coming back to the question, can the boot animation be changed? I've messed with the qmg files in an attempt to replace the weird, nauseating rainbow animation but even after overwriting the latter, it persists. Looking forward to a reply kek

Nauseating rainbow? LOL. Sorry. This is much more of a general question though, that wouldn't exactly pertain to this ROM specifically. And given I don't have an answer, I'd try searching BootAnimation How-Tos to get this customized. The ONLY thing I did regarding this was replaced the existing files with the rainbow ones. That's it. Apologies in advance.

Just discovered an issue: RCS (Rich Communication Services / Chat) texts don't show up in Android Messages app. See "Known Issues" in OP for a solution. BTW I posted a new ROM version a few days back that allows many choices in Aroma Installer. Make sure to pick Samsung Messages (instead of Google), so you get RCS chat text messages!

Enable ECG(BP Featur) On Non-Samsung Phones for Galaxy Watch 3, Active 2 Step-By-Step

Update 09/29/20:
1. The latest Samsung Health Monitor Version 1..1.0.175.Caravana (Thanks Caravana for the Mod) Download
This tutorial should work on all Android Phones to enable ECG for your Galaxy Watch 3 and Active 2. BP might also work the same way when it is released in the US.
Basic idea is to create your own certificate to sign ECG.tpk application and install it on your watch, then install the Samsung Health Monitor Mod app on your phone.
I have read lots of threads on XDA and can't find a complete tutorial about how to do it for Galaxy Watch 3 or Active 2. Hope this step-by-step tutorial will help. The whole process took me around 30 mins, it shouldn't be very hard. Make sure you back-up your watch first, just in case anything goes wrong and you need to restore data.
You will need an Android Phone, a Windows PC and Galaxy Watch 3/Active 2 watch for this tutorial. And a wireless network.
Downloads:
1. Download Java for Windows offline (64 bit) https://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp and install it.

3. Go to Wifi settings on the watch, change wifi setting to always On, and connect it to the same wireless network with your PC.
4. Reboot the watch. Make sure wifi is connected after the reboot.
From Your PC:
1. Launch Tizen Package Manager and Navigate to 5.5 wearable(It depends on your watch's software version, eg mine shows Tizen Version 5.5.0.1, so I navigate to 5.5 wearable), then click Install icon
2. Scroll down to the Tizen SDK tool and click the install icon
3. Click on the Extension SDK tab
3.1 Click the arrow on Extras

6.5 A pop up will ask you to sign in to your Samsung account, enter your account information and sign in
6.6 Now it will show your certificate has been saved at C:/Users/USERNAME/SamsungCertificate/cert_name and click next.
6.7 Create a new distributor certificate and click next
6.8 Do not change Privilege and password information, do not close these windows, just leave it there, we need to enable debug mode from the watch and connect it to PC now.
7. Open Tizen "Device Manager" from the PC.
8. Click the "Remote Device Manager" icon from top right corner.
9. From pop-up windows, click the "Scan Devices" icon from the top right corner.
10. Once it find your watch turn the connection switch to on. and close pop-up windows. At this time, you should able to see lots of debugging information from Device Manager. (If you don't see debug information, try these steps: 1. Turn off your windows firewall 2. turn off bluetooth&GPS on your watch 3. reboot your watch )
11. Go back to Tizen Certificate Manager, step 9.8, we can see one DUID has been added automatically. Click next.
12. It will show your certificate has been saved at C:/Users/USERNAME/SamsungCertificate/cert_name, Click Finish.
13. Download Fit2installer.zip unzip the whole folder to your desktop.
14. Go to the certificate(C:/Users/USERNAME/SamsungCertificate/cert_name) you just created and copy all files. inside the folder
15. Go to C:\Users\USERNAME\Desktop\Fit2Installer\cert Paste all the certificate file you just copied.

19. Now go to "Device Manager", right-click your device, choose "install app", Select ecg.tpk file from C:\Users\USERNAME\Desktop\Fit2Installer\install_me.
20. Wait a few seconds, you should see ECG app has been installed on your watch. Open it.
21. Open the "Samsung Health Monitor" app from your phone, you should be able to read the ECG data from your watch now.
As Blood Pressure has not been released in the U.S, once it released, you should be able to activate for Non-Samsung phone the same way. You can disable debug mode if you want now.
Enjoy!

Nice! I'm in the process of following this guide at the moment. Tizen Studio's package installers are so slow!

Nice to have well documented details! kudos

Step 6. I don't have a Samsung logo. When I click the + in certificate manager it just asks me for a certificate profile name

Is there a risk of voiding the warranty or bricking the watch doing this?

Is there an IPA file for this that can be sideloaded onto an iphone? I'm no expert at this stuff and have only followed the great instructions here before so not sure. Or is there any way to connect my GW3 to my Samsu g Tab S6 on Verizon that shares my iPhone number? I'd like to get the Health Monitor app features as I really don't want to go back to an apple watch.

Supposedly on tizen 5 there is no bp.tpk - ecg and bp are now both in ecg.tpk. installing old ecg.tpk may be main reason for bp not to work. Did anyone try to follow the tutorial but use new ecg.tpk? Does ecg.tpk need to be specialy prepared to by signed with certificate or can we do it with new ecg.tpk that has been posted by caravana?

Can there be a mess if in the future I change my phone and take a samsung?
Does the smartwatch remain unaffected? Will I always have to update it manually?

Works great!

Also, make sure you're passing safetynet on magisk manager & from manager's settings, enable magisk hide, also hide magisk manager & give it another name.

Thank you very much!! @xxstd
I had some problems running "sign.bat" due to relative path command routes, but after "customizing" the script changing to absolute path, all went ok.
I've signed BP.tpk and ECG.tpk and both are running OK in my GW3. I live in Spain, and here in Europe neither ECG nor BP are approved, so it is not the reason your BP tpk is not working IMHO.

Can you confirm the Tizen version from your watch? I know if you are runing Tizen 4.0.0.8 you could get BP works as well. Only ECG for Tizen 5.

Hmm, are you using the latest version Tizen SDK? Mine is Tizen Studio 3.7, they might change the UI a little bit for different versions.

Well, as the debugging mode has been enabled, if you tell Samsung they will possibly decline the warranty since they don't know what you have done to the watch...... But you can always turn it off, and reset the watch anytime you want.

Question Access denied popup

I'm using a rooted S21 Ultra. I'm on stock android.
It's been rooted for 1.5 years and there were no issues. A couple of months ago the attached popup started to appear. I press ok and it goes away. This can happen between once every 2-3 days to a couple times a day.
There were no significant changes on the device when this started, so I have no idea what caused this to appear.
On my searches I read that it could be the Samsung Health app, so I I installed it, but that didn't help. I guess it's another Samsung app? But which?
Right now I'm running A13, but this started a couple of months back when I was running A12. The upgrade didn't change that.
Any leads on this?

A number of Samsung apps will check for root/Knox status, and since Knox is hardware based (i.e. trip it once, and it's tripped forever), even if you return to complete stock, these apps won't work.
It's mainly the apps whose data security heavily depends on the phone's root status (even if it's currently unrooted, it's been 'compromised'), so Samsung Health, Secure Folder, etc. are the main culprits for such a message. However it's possible that Samsung added a system-level check that causes the pop-up.

I will clarify again. My phone was rooted for about 16 months before this message showed up. It's been rooted 1.5 years and the message is here for 2 months. This is what I meant when I said no significant changes before the message appeared.

I have the same problem when I first bought the phone, I rooted it, then I unrooted it, but because knox was triggered, android 12 was not coming out, so it started to appear after I made the CSC change. android 13 e upgrade

Someone had a discussion on this link last month, so I wrote it, but no one answered.

OR
Execute this from terminal
Code:
adb shell
su
pm hide com.samsung.android.dkey
For unrooted
You can try disable appears on top permission for digital key app

The phone is not rooted, is there a non-rooted solution? @dr.ketan ?
