Bixby voice

Hello guys... I asked this question, but no one answered, I have Note8... is it possible to activate bixby voice without root ? ( Russian firmware )

As far as I am aware Bixby is in the firmware that comes with the Note 8 so it should already be there!

You have to go on Bixby screen then in parameter and put on the Bixby Voice.

theres no such option... am I missing something ?
as I mentioned I'm on Russian firmware

Is Bixby voice even available with non root Russian region phone? I don't think it is.

I don't believe Bixby voice is available in many languages.

I think it Is available, but it is only available in Korean, and English. So, I'm guessing that may be you have to have your phone's default language set to English or korean for it work?? Did you try pressing the Bixby button to see what happens? Usually if you hold the button it Listens to your voice and should respond to your question, or command.

Yes my friend, my default language is English ( us ) tried everything, reset cache, use vpn, but no results, I eant that damn Bixby voice

Bixby Voice doesn't work for me yet, either. I've done the same as others. (Update, Clear Cache and delete data in storage. Factory Reset, etc.)
I'm using US English on a Japanese Note 8 in Japan. It's fun trying and anticipating that it will eventually work, though.. fingers crossed.

Hmm! Maybe it goes deeper then, and is in the version of firmware you have. I wish I could help you more, because Ian really loving bixby So far.

I have same problem on s8 in Georgia. When i asked about this to samsung they told that there is issue in this region and they are working on it and it will be fixed soon. How many months are meant in "soon"?

Had any luck with it yet? "Official" samsung phones for Georgia are all sold with Russian firmware version (big bull**** if you ask me), but those that are not official (ones Zoomer sells) are different and my friend has a note 8 bought from there and everything works - even bixby voice.
it's spring 2018 already and saw somewhere on samsungs official site that Russia is yet to be one of those 200 countries bixby is available in (Georgia is nowhere to be found sadly).
the hell samsung?

Hi guys,
Are you also missing the ability to disable the Bixby button? I just picked up a Galaxy S9+ in the Czech Republic, and my Bixby settings look exactly like yours (no mention of voice - holding the button down does absolutely nothing). I actually wanted to disable the button completely but there's no option to do so.
Thanks!

yeah, you are right we are from the same Country and its easier to write in my mother tongue. i just said that i have the same problem with my note 8. when i bought it there was bixby voice but after factory reset (which i did because of other problem) it just disappeared. and asked him if he knew other options to return bixby. i dont know what the firmware region is and how to change it i dont even know how to root my phone. guess i will just wait. bixby home sucks btw.

Hello Megobrebo, I saw the replay very late.. sorry, but no results you know... and I'm confused why Samsung Georgia and every official market sells Russian phones ?! My previous phone was s7 edge and it was for Georgia with firmware code CAU GE ( Caucasus Georgia )
I dont want to root my Galaxy Note8 because of secure folder but I wand that damn bixby voice...

Get BKPackageDisabler from the play store and disable the following:
Software Update - con.sec.android.soagent
System Update - com.samsung.sdm
System Update - com.samsung.sdm.sdmviewer
I did that and the update no longer comes up. The update option is no longer even available on my phone. It's easy to undo, when you do decide that you want to update.

What about turning off animation (three items) in the Developer Menu? I had actually set mine to .5 as in the previous nougat the was an issue rwith right click menus not working properly if set to 0. (I actually installed "SystemUI Tuner" to make it .2). Does that help?

He's actually suggesting changing animation speed, not disabling notifications.

Same here, not a fan of 8.0 Oreo, I have tried Oreo many times already & prefer to stay on Nougat for various reasons.
Aside from BK Disabler, in Software Updates in Settings, isn't there an option to disable checking for updates? Then in Developers Options, turn off Auto Update System as well. I forget as I rooted my phone on day 2 but on my Sony TV with Nougat I have that option to disable checking for updates.

Probably rooting is the reason. Oreo is much faster.

Rooting is the reason for what?
Oreo not faster or slower for me. Speed is not the issue or a concern for me. And if you're a benchmark junkie, you'll find Oreo scores lower with Geekbench but scores higher with Antutu.

anyway to do this without package disabler pro?

I think that's the real sweet spot. I've set all my phones to .5 and I never had issues. Just snappy enough. Love it.

Found this thread, paid the $4 for the "Pro" version of Package Manager via their web site. I want to stay on Nouget because I have an S7 Edge and there are S7-edge specific features in Nougat which were removed in Oreo, and I do not want to lose access to those features (the whole reason why I bought the Edge to start with -- and yes, I did try the oreo update and wasn't happy with it, so I downgraded back to Nougat). The annoying "update" message appears every morning around 9am, and I have to constantly "force stop", which hopefully this program will alleviate. Worth the price for the comfort of knowing I will not "accidentally" be upgraded to Oreo w/o my knowledge or consent.

Go to your stock camera and swipe to the left and you should see a blue box that says create my emoji. Click on that and it should redirect you to the samsung galaxy apps page. It's really useless to be honest with you. Animoji for iphone is a lot better and innovative.

Yes they did! I was cursing and saying the exact same thing.. It's just like the device manager that they took from us for well over a year.. They are always messing with something and taking it something.. And if you look at the date on the kernel, they took a good month to pull things. They're not trying to make sure anything works on their silly network.. They are just trying to remove features in the frail "hope" that it will make people upgrade to the new models.
Same thing for security patches.. Notice we didn't get one at all for 3 months, while Samsung had been rolling them out every month steady. All you have to do is either read here in some of the other threads, or simply sammobile. The latter always tells when they're is an update our patch to any Samsung device. And I just sat, read, and observed. They do this every year, with every single new devices far as Samsung is concerned.
They let Verizon do that to us. But yes, Verizon is as crooked a carrier, as a bent telephone pole.. I feel you what though, it makes me feel just the opposite. Why in the world would I, as a consumer keep investing money in a device that isn't cheap by a Longshot as far as cellular devices are concerned, when all they're going to do, is disable features, that the device was designed for by the manufacturer..
It really, at this price point to me is simply sickening.. And I really and utterly refuse....

There is no AR feature in the so-called AR emoji for Note 8. There are plenty of app that can be used to create personalized sticker, nothing special.
