Anyone managed to get One UI 2 working? - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

Hi,
I found a post online about someone installing One UI 2 on the samsung s10 with instructions on how to install on Note 8, which was basically using app cloner to clone the one ui 2 application and install it along side the current one.
I tried this but just got loads of java app crashes. Has anyone managed to get it working?
Thanks
Kevin

We are all waiting for any dev to port for us an OneUI 2 rom. It's only about time

Evernote no longer working, alternatives?

Hi all. Firstly I'm a big evernote user, I've had it on my devices for years and almost every note I make goes through evernote in some way at some stage.
One of my main reasons for getting a nook was to root and use for reading Google reader feeds and making and accessing all my notes (effectively my digital notepad). I've carried my nook with me everywhere in this capacity for months however the most recent evernote update means the app won't even launch, firstly is anyone else had this issue secondly suggestions to fix it?
So far I've re installed evernote several times tried reboots etc but no change. The app just doesn't load.

Anyone else?
"Doesn't install" doesn't tell us a lot.
A logcat over ADB would tell us why the package manager doesn't like it.
I would guess that they increased the minimum SDK version required to run it.
Use apktool d on the apk.
Look at AndroidManifest.xml
Look for this:
Code:
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="7" />
It probably says 9 or something.
Or you could read the documentation for the application and see what they require.
It installs fine but when I try to launch it the app just doesn't open. Is it working on everyone else's nst?

cant login with this version.
Update: login works again.
Sideload an older version - 4.5.6.2
I found this answer on another thread. Works perfectly.
Simply install version 4.5.6.2 from the Android Drawer Repository
I just use an old version of Evernote (2.6.2) which is much lighter than the new ones and seems to work perfectly fine on the Nook Touch.
Is there a version with multitouch support? I wish i could zoom in and enlarge the tiny font.

[Q] Microsoft Office Mobile Not Compatible with This Device?

Hi all, I just upgraded from Galaxy S4 to Note 4. I had Office Mobile installed on my S4 but when I try to download for the Note 4, I get "Not Compatible with This Device". Anyone know why this is, what to do, or if it WILL be compatible at some time? Thanks!
same message for me...there are plenty of alternatives, so its no big deal
I just pulled the apk from my wife's S5 and it installs and works great. Same thing with the Starbucks app.
Neither is the Starbucks app. ?
I sideloaded the apk and it installed and works with no issues.
Taking Notes on my Note 4
A lot of apps aren't compatible yet. Developers need to update their apps. Redbox and Starbucks to name 2 I need developers to update.
I sideloaded it. Here's a link to the apk I used.

Now that Microsoft has made Office Mobile a free app, can someone provide us the straight-from-Microsoft app to try to sideload? The linked version, here, is labeled com.microsoft.office.officehub-15.0.3414.2000-APK4Fun.com.
According to a comment at the "Microsoft Community," Microsoft has classified the N4 as a tablet. Hence the incompatibility.
FWIW, I've signed up with Microsoft to request a preview of the tablet version.
An option

Hancom Office that comes with the phone is much better IMHO but that is up to you. You either sideload the app if you get the apk or you can download an app that works ONLY on rooted phones called Market Enabler - there you can make the market believe that you are downloading from a GS3 or other common phone.

Auto Awesome Movies? (Supported on Note 4)

Has anyone figured out how to enable auto awesome movie creation on this device yet?
I used to use it on the Note3 and on a particular ROM for my Note 2 it worked, but the Note 4 dies not support it.
Official Google site for supported devices:
https://support.google.com/plus/answer/6027520?hl=en
Is there a way to trick the Google+ Photos app into thinking my Note 4 is a Note 3?
Or is there another work around to get this feature to work?
It is probably to coolest thing the Photos app can do and a bit disappointing the Note 4 can't do it.

You could try changing the device ? in the build.prop file. But be sure to make a backup of that file and possibly a backup of your rom. Just in case something goes wrong.
My suggestion exactly, if you edit the build.prop to register your device as a note 2 or note 3, I can't imagine why it wouldn't work?
BUT REMEMBER TO BACKUP YOUR EXISTING BUILD.PROP FIRST
I modified the build prop and for the feature to show. It's pretty cool, but for some reason I couldn't get the movies to save. Makes me think it's still not working correctly even though I tricked it into appearing.

Wow, I wonder what could possibly be different?
Can you tell me what ROM does Auto Awesome Movies work on the Note 2? I been looking to get this feature on my phone and was very disappointed it wasn't there.
Why wouldn't it work on the Note 4? It uses any similar pics taken, such as burst mode and makes it into a animated pic. It would be done in Google+ and not your phone.

Yeah for some reason Google had the feature turned off on a bunch of new devices. Was going someone would know a work around.

I have flash stock rom 4.3 on the Note 2 and do not see it. The only options I see are for motion and mix. FYI, I have a T889 (T-Mobile), does that matter?
The Note 3 is listed on the supported device list, but I do not see the Note 2 on that list. I have previously flashed the i317 4.4.2 EZKAT rom but did not see it.
Will download CM12 and see if it is the option pops up.
Thank you.
I shoot with my phone and a couple other digital cameras. As long as you upload to Google+ or Picasa, its Google+ that renders all the stuff and will notify you when they do it. Then you can view them on whatever device you have. It's not always instant, you have no control of when or what will be done. I give it a couple days. I use the Stories a lot for events.
Fail - I couldn't get auto awesome movies on the Note 2 SGH-
t889.
Please let me know what note 2 rom you are on. Did you have to modify the build.prop, and if so which fields?. Thank you so much for you help..
So if you go and check the supported devices list...Note 4 isn't listed. Seems like an oversight. A lot of newer phones isn't. I can do Motion and Mix AutoAwesome from the device but not videos...I wonder why. I've posted to every social media I can to see if I could get an answer out of them.
I found the solution to enable making movie feature in google photos, but you will need to have your phone rooted.
You need to edit build.prop file in /system folder in root and find and edit as following:
(be sure to backup your build.prop file first)
ro.product.brand=google
ro.product.name=shamu
ro.product.manufacturer=Google
o.build.product=shamu
ro.product.model=Nexus 6
ro.product.device=shamu
ro.cm.device=shamu
Save the file and do a reboot and then try selecting multiple photos and click on the plus button on top, it will now show an option to make a movie, if still it does not show, reboot again it will show up.
Thank you for this.
I tried changing build.prop file after rooting my Galaxy S3, but still when I open Google Photos there is no option to create a movie.
When I'm checking About device in Settings it now shows:
Model number: Nexus 6
Android version 4.3
I wonder what wrong I'm doing. Someone else found a way to have it working?

Samsung has responded to these criticisms. Action Memo will return in an update to Samsung Notes thatâ??ll roll out before late September.

As soon as the update comes, We can install the new version. Way to go, with the reviews and complaints to Samsung!
So the updated sketchbook comes with all the tools and brushes as the older versions except for the Note 3 version which came with some extras like the log and leaves brush tool as well as all the little people. The new update has the option to buy pro tools for 4.99 but so far I have everything working (I did not activate the free trial, I bypassed straight to the main screen). I am going to keep playing with it just to see if functionality becomes limited after trial period (just in case it activated trial anyways). Maybe the pro tools is a whole different set that aren't included in older versions. The app did force close a couple of times when I was trying to use a smudge tool over a spot that I had already smudged 4 times...
If anyone wants the 2.9.2 version that came with the Note 3 PM me and I'll send it to ya (in case you liked the leaves, logs, and peeps).

Reverting back to Android O but I can't get Samsung Members App

Hello, I'm currently on the ONE UI Beta and I'm trying to revert back to Android O before I ship my phone to Samsung (for the Samsung trade-in) but I can't seem to find the unregistered button. Looks like I have the Samsung+ App and not the Samsung Member app. How can I get this app, i can't find it through the play store or the galaxy store.
I'm not suppose to recommend it outright nor will I support the install but there are websites online that hosts APKs.
Search and try side loading it.

If you're on the One UI beta, Members should've automatically installed on your phone. If not, look on apkmirror.
Thanks guys. I just downloaded the APK but where do I put the file. I've never installed APK's
Nevermind, I got it. Thanks guys.
