I would advise EVERYONE NOT to buy package disabler pro EVER again because they're ripping everyone off by giving out license keys and then cancelling the licenses (and then claiming updates broke it) and forcing people to buy it again and again!! They're nothing but cons and fking losers!!

the other guys do the same thing..I've bought it 4 times at least ...name has police in it, if I'm not mistaken

GBP 19.99 on play.com in the UK if you want it - I think it it too bulky - new version is better on pictures at least looks like proper watch - I use mbw-200 instead

I'm waiting for the pebble personally (getpebble.com). Eliminates the problem of having to press a button to see the time.
Thanks!
This is a sweet deal. Thanks for the heads-up! I got one yesterday

Yeah but with that watch you can't read text messages, missed calls and stuff like that.
With the Liveview you can and it's a steal at that price.
The MBW-200 is still too expensive !
this may not have something to do with the deal, but since it's about liveview...
guys, i just updated mine to the latest firmware available via Sony Update Service, but I still have disconnection problems. is that suppose to happen? any solutions?
i saw a number of posts about fixing the issue by using an app called MinFree, but aren't those tutorials intended for the old software of LiveView?
and lastly, since the issue is about android killing the liveview app, will converting it to system app solve the problem?

I updated mine a while back and it was better but not perfect. I use Go Launcher and have it set to not kill this app. THis app is a godsend... I have next to zero disconnects.

ITs $1.99 but in my opinion totally worth it.....
jeez.. i think i wasted money here.. i was hopeful all the bugs were sorted out already since almost all threads about its bugs that i read were almost 2 years old.. and that the latest update came 2011..i feel ripped off.....

There was another app that was not on the market that was free it also worked well. I dont have my phone with me right now but when I find the app I will let you know. Did the above app not work?
Thanks for the time helping out an "accessory noob" guy jgregory! Nope I didn't try that app yet. Apparently my unit is kinda working good now after the firmware update. It has been connected already for an hour without disconnection, only some type of freezing on the device that forces me to turn off and on again the devicE. But it's really rare now. I'm gonma do an overnight conmection test, see if it disconnects while I'm asleep.
These accessories are actually on sale in our country. Yesterday I bought MW600 despite negative reviews, but I'm actually impressed with the headset. It has good battery life. 4 hours into music and the battery indicator is still at full. I just hope it doesn't go into some sort of cardiac arrest like most reviews talk about.
I'm happy that the LiveView can control the music on my phone using PowerAmp whilst using the MW600 simultaneously.
These accessories are so cool!

Yeah once i got the disconnection problem resolved this things sweet. I use it mostly for music streaming to my headset..... hey I was going to PM you but theres no option for it on your profile....
Oh jeez I don't know why. Must be because some disrespectful kid was bugging me and dropping crap on me via PM and I reported him and the mods interfered. Maybe you could try again.
Anyway, what messaging app are you using? I'm using GOSMS but apparently LiveView doesn't support it
I don't use the stock messaging app because it looks worse than a command prompt window. Haha. Any workaround you know of?

I want to change my phone shutter speed. What should i do?
You cannot. Shutter speed and RAW shooting mode are supported on the S6 Active 6.0 Marshmallow, but Samsung did not provide them in the built in camera app. All the other galaxy s6's and the Note 5 got it.

I think I figured out whom I need to contact to have this fixed. Re-reading one of many support emails I have received from Samsung, I believe the issue is not something they handle. I believe it is AT&T's. I am contacting them right now, and so far my support experience has been 100x better. Maybe this issue will be fixed after all.

It seem's AT&T actually doesn't manage the updates. I clarified my issue and the manager of the person I am talking to and I will contact Samsung about this issue. AT&T is just as confused by this as I am, so the manager of support will be emailing me directly so we can resolve this with Samsung.

Will Package Disabler Apps work on Note 8?

I have been seeing that apps like Package Disabler have been struggling to get around disabling packages with latest updates from samsung. Many users on the Play store keep complaining it doesn't work. Will the latest software of Note 8 work with package disabling? What about AdHell? is it as good a disabler like Package and BK?
Works fine in s8 plus. Perfect way to disable sh*tby totally.

Yes there are a few different apps for remapping the Bixby key or if you root you can do it yourself manually too.
Check in the s8 themes and apps section on XDA or just wait and they'll come to this one too.
However I like Bixby, it's quite helpful and saves me time

I'm not planning on rooting, just disabling any unnecessary packages. I'm pretty happy with the Google assistant, and think that's likely to be superior to Bixby.

The apps have non root options available so you should be good to go with those.
package disable doesnt work all the time. Its a known fact.
Samsung has told the dev to change some thing so it doesnt work.
I had it install on my phone and work great. Then one day i went to add another app to the list and the program wouldnt load.
So i uninstalled it and reinstalled it. Then got an error 102. Contacted the dev and he said it was samsungs fault and if im getting that error to uninstall and ask for a refund.
So with all that being said i doubt it will work on the note 8. I hope it does since i like to block ota updates but we will see what happens.

Curious what phone your currently using. My co worker just got the S8 and contacted the dev. The dev replied almost immediately with a link to the newest version that was not fully released yet. He hasn't had a problem since. That was this past week.
PDP Pro is working fine on my Note 4. That is an older phone that is on Marshmallow. It works well. I took a look at what was installed on the Verizon variant when I was in the Verizon store today and there was not much on it. Much, much less than what they installed on my Note 4. Does anyone know if they just put less on the model phones in the stores, or will there really be that little junk on the phone?

Tmobile s8+ The dev email me back within 5 mins and said if i got that error to ask for a refund and it wouldnt work. This was about 2 weeks ago.
But as said the app work when i first got my s8+ and installed it. but then i went to open it and it didnt open so uninstalled and reinstalled and it didnt work any more.
I'm sure they will work, some work better then others. the Bixby button is something that a lot of people don't really care for so if there is a way to remap/disable it, a post will be up fairly quick.

it would be nice if they support they note 8 given the nasty they did to their customers when they caved to samsung and modified their app to let the stupid battery cap updates go thru on the note 7.

Sorry, can't agree with this. Their decision to side with Samsung on this was good business sense. Had any customer using it been "lit up" by a faulty battery while the installation of the update was blocked by PD, they'd have been wide open to a lawsuit regardless of what the license agreement said.

i agree that this is the case but all the same i remember when it happened and was annoyed - i planned, as i have done, to use the note 7 for as long as i could and i was incensed at the attempts to hobble it and end those plans prematurely.
luckily i dodged this (and the others) and got a lot of good use out of it as a tablet. it totally rocked as a backup telecommute device or when on the go. the s-pen is what makes it work. remote desktop on windows 10 is actually pretty functional for coding. and this is a phone i just sold for $380. i can't complain about how it ended up but, yeah, i was a bit upset that these devs were assisting the attempts to hobble it.
i can't wait to try to work using the note 8. i checked one out in best buy yesterday and, tho intimidated by the size (that sounds wrong), i have high hopes for how it will perform as a telecommuting device.

I'm not giving that leach any more of my money. He thinks people will buy it over and over and Google let's him get by with it.
The reality is that every phone is slightly different. The package disabler works extremely well to remove bloat and freeze everything that you don't want to deal with but preserve Knox and other security things. It's well worth the money in my opinion. Most people pay more money then that app just to drink a cup of coffee once.

It's the principle and I don't pay for the same cup of coffee over and over. Besides the app wouldn't trip Knox if you disabled every app on the phone. It may brick but not trip Knox. There are minimal changes to the app, and occasionally none at all. Taking an app down and then bringing it back, making it a new buy, is unethitical and unnecessary.
Anyone with a list yet? I'll try to post mine

RCS for one. Launcher with Google feed built in without the need to root.

Oh I see I never heard of RCS until you mentioned it. I only booted the stock ROM once before flashing international. I also do not think microg supports Google feeds never used a feed before. How do people admin android without root?
I used to root everything. I just don't have the time anymore plus I din't buy my phone out right and I don't feel like calling TMO to try and get out of the payoff restriction.

I didn't buy phone outright within one hour of taking it home I was boot loader unlocked , sim unlocked and rooted. No need to call t mobile for anything. I only booted the stock operating system once. Which was only because it was required step in the process. They asked me for help in setting up my phone. I sure if you can remove Google play services and seemed to think the phone wouldn't work without Google play services.
I get the desire for RCS,but it's barely used still... I could see it mattering in the future, but as of right now, meh... I got mine unlocked by sweet talking a rep, but MSM tool is great too! As much as I love the Google feed, I simply have a shortcut for it on my home screen so I can quickly go to it if needed... Honestly, the international variant works so much better for me! Sadly, TMO really restricts software updates for so many Android manufacturers, even aside from OnePlus. By the time TMO approve a software update, new patches and updates have already released on the mainstream side.
Wow...figured someone would have mentioned it by now...but anyway. Nova Launcher has a Google Feed plugin where you can just swipe right and you have the Discover feed. No root required.
As for RCS...not that big of a deal for me. I'm using International on my TMO 6T because I got tired of the SLOWWW updates.
I'm confident the T-mobile techs have noticed your demands here on XDA. They are surely working on your requests.
Stand by.

Yeah, I know about the alternatives but they are just not the same as having a dedicated stock launcher with the feed built in. It just seems cleaner to me.
Right now though, I do admit I cant use RCS because no one I know has it. So I went to Beta 9 and am using CPL with the plug in.
I am waiting on my token so I can get off this slow update T-Mobile schedule. I finally got tired of waiting so I called them up and told them I need sim unlock they did it even without phone payoff.

What does sim unlock mean in terms of updates? I am not sure if my sim is locked or not no proper method of testing but omni or carbon ROMs update just fine without official sim unlock. I only used the stock ROM long enough to boot the thing to fastboot to flash the international ROM. I did this inside the t mobile store while they processed the return of my wife's iPhone ten pro or what ever it was. They didn't seem to mind. Odd they let me do it with out the phone being processed yet. Mine was rooted and boot loader unlocked before I got my receipt. Their system was down for processing returns so I was there about an hour.

Yeah, I know about the alternatives but they are just not the same as having a dedicated stock launcher with the feed built in. It just seems cleaner to me.
Right now though, I do admit I cant use RCS because no one I know has it. So I went to Beta 9 and am using CPL with the plug in.

Yeah but I would think that the advantages of having newer/faster updates outweigh having to use another launcher or having RCS. Honestly, the OnePlus Launcher leaves a lot to be desired. I got rid of it almost immediately after I got the phone after I saw its huge lack of customization. Used Nova Launcher for years and love it. I won't use these betas though. I use my phone all day and just don't wanna run into annoying bugs lol. Hopefully we get a big new stable update soon.
RCS isnt something I really *NEED*. I can see when a message was delivered...but I'm sure we'll get RCS eventually.

Yeah, I can understand where you are coming from. However I would prefer the T-Mobile software. Each person has there own prerogative. Mine is T-Mo.

I am waiting on my token so I can get off this slow update T-Mobile schedule. I finally got tired of waiting so I called them up and told them I need sim unlock they did it even without phone payoff.
