I have Note 9 rooted with Magisk. A few days ago I realised that I can't say anything on Galaxy Store or Galaxy Themes. Does anybody have that problem and is there any solution for this? I think Galaxy Store was updated just before this started to happen but I am not sure if that's directly related to my problem.
Thanks in advance.

i acctualy added it while settuoing my galaxy watch.
although my phone is rooted, launching spay from the watch allowed me to gain access and configure samsung pay on the phone. i initially did not configure spay on the phone.
i can maybe try and replicate the steps when i switch roms.
but anyways, if you dont have a smart smart watch then i dunno.
but when you are asked to pay on the galaxy app store, cant you choose from other providers?

again when i change roms i can check if there is any other way to do it other than how i got it to work with the watch.
because i had the exact same issue with you but was able to 'fool' the phone by using the watch and launching the the spay watch plugin to enroll spay

so the galaxy watch plugin is the one that makes it all possible. i did hide everything relating to spay with magisk hide...
btw my device dosent support spay but rhat didint stop me from adding a card and PayPal account. ill do some tests later to see if i can get it to work without the watch.

here is what happens, phone detects root but let's me continue then i try to use spay but says phone isint supported. but since i have the paypal option then in then end i just choose that to complete the purchase. i prefer PayPal anyways.
on the watch side, if i launch paypal on it, then my card that i added earlier using the watch plugin works fine.

So you had to Magisk Hide all these apps. I will try to hide all of them. I don't think it will give me the missing option of adding Pay Pal Account but it might give me to pay with already added Credit Card.

So i have been looking this up for a day now and I can't find anything helpful or that works. I have a att s4 active. I want to sim unlock it because its pretty much useless to me right now. I just got this phone and the guy said he got the sim unlock code from att but we have to wait 48 hours for it to go though and now he isn't texting me back at all. I don't have the money for a unlock code and i just need this unlocked asap! does any one know any working methods?

It says it supports some S4's, does it specifically say S4 Active anywhere? I couldn't see that anywhere myself. It doesn't say anything about support S4 Zoom but it worked so it's possible that the same exploit exists in your S4. If you're really that desperate, it's worth a try.

I had it done on my M8. They have to send you a link to the app, and you have to install it, they can't just do it without your permission.
The app will also block any access to keyboard (when they used it, I had to type everything and it specifically states that all access to the screen is currently blocked when typing anything), it basically just lets them use the device a bit, and check some settings to make sure everything is proper.
Just uninstall the app after, and done.

If it was new device, I don't see how they would do that unless they were going to use ATT Locker (which I hate). If to external, then it's just a setting in the phone that'll move everything to the external.
Still, she would have to ask for your permission, which she did. I wouldn't worry about it, they can't get that data anyway.

I called att once when I had my s4. However I had that phone so locked down even they couldn't get a connection established. When they would try to connect they would get a rejection message and my phone would force close the app. They use this to trouble shoot our phones when we call support. They ask you to accept a text link which grants them control of your phone. What you see they see. I do not like this because they can see notifications like text messages in the status bar. You will also be asked to install an apk. I don't like this idea because I have private information on my phone. But someone who is not very literate with phones may need this type of support to fix their phone malfunctions.

Does anyone know what package disablers work with the Note 9, it's been a year a so since I was with Samsung and package disabler appears to have disappeared from the Play Store.
Can I get it somewhere else? does it work with the Note 9?
It works but it also gets removed from Play Store periodically then it gets reinstated. People who purchased it its earlier reincarnations need to purchase it again, assuming they need to reinstall, if more than 6 months have passed. Needless to say a lot people feel peeved off (and rightly so) by the developer's attitude.

I had a look around at these but then opted to try the ADB route instead. There are various threads around on what to disable and it's pretty straightforward to do. I also wonder if just disabling the app via settings is similar or good enough. Haven't found enough info so far to confirm, but have disabled some apps this way too.
Is the ADB method the same as on an LG phone? E.g. pm uninstall -k --.......

Not sure about ADB, only time I've used ADB is for flashing recovery, I wouldn't know where to start.
I've disabled everything I can manually, although there are a few not sure about, after checking the play store via chrome package disabler pro is still available but not for the Note 9, annoying because I'm pretty sure I have the Pro version.
Also somewhat unrelated, why does the software on the Note 9 have such difficulty closing down background apps? even when you explicitly selected them to not run in the background, an hour or so later it's still active and using battery. :silly:

I don't know. I got everythjng through mail: a download link and a code to activate the app.
Maybe try and contact them?
Just in case someone needs the full tutorial for using ADB to uninstall a system app,check this link:
https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/
If you're not familiar with it,it's worth your while to read everything.
It's not complicated if you're used to using command prompts/ADB,however,be warned that if you delete,it's actually just hidden from the user,but,once you do this,it can't be recovered/accessed/re-installed unless you factory reset (less root access,of course).
The article/tutorial states as much,but,we're all human & at times,TLDR.......... :good:

Indeed, this is the best way to go ... just remember to renew your Samsung Knox API Key every 90 days, mine needs to be renewed soon.
I received my Galaxy watch three yesterday here in Canada. I know officially the new features such as ECG are not available here. I'm doubtful they will be anytime soon. How can I somehow get these features outside of the US on my device? I'm pretty sure it's possible but I'm not sure where to start and look for proper watch three instructions that won't mess up my device. Thank you.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/samsung-galaxy-watch-3/features-available-t4144413
I still can't figure out the proper procedure for the Watch 3. ?
I was using online chat to Samsung support yesterday in the UK and he told me that the ECG and blood pressure monitor would be working when I receive the watch next Friday.
Unfortunately, I didn't get a copy of the message transcript although I guess I could ask for it.
Does anyone know if this is true?
