I was under the impression the galaxy s5 was going to come with it preinstalled. It was the only bloatware I was actually looking forward too and when I looked at my Galaxy s5 there was nothing to be found! Does anyone have it yet?

Its a piece of software that helps you Speed Read. It was supposed to make its official debut on the Galaxy S5.
I was just wondering the same thing - it occurred to me that Spritz was supposed to debut with this phone but I've seen no mention since March.

I posted a thread in the general s5 QA section. I'm an At&t user and no Spritz there either, also not on the watch.
Very disappointed as well. Spritz / Samsung should at least offer some explanation. This was one of the main selling points of the phone for me
Just emailed their support team
I just emailed spritzinc support team and I'll let you know what I find. Seriously between this and not being able to root i'm about to hand this phone back to verizon.
Is it called "Brain Apps" on Spritz ?

We're pleased to announce our new email reader for the G5 - to give it a try, go out to the Samsung App Store and search for 'SpritzMail'. Have fun with it and let us know if you have any issues - [email protected]
Thanks!

I currently have the wi-fi Note 8.0 and love it. I would like to get the AT&T model but is it rooted yet and does the multi-window option work? Finally is the AT&T note stuff here or is there another area to look for? Hopefully these questions don't sound to dumb.

Rooted Yet - No
MultiWindow - Yes
This is it for AT&T Note 8 LTE SGH-I467
I'm sure that it will be rooted soon. (I Hope). I got one a week ago and love it. I only want root so I can install Titanium Backup. Custom Roms are nice, but I just want to be able to debloat and have a good backup
since this is a question, you should have posted it in Q&A....

I agree, I should have caught that.
The AT&T model is not rooted yet. The multiwindow feature works great. There is no specific forum for the AT&T model so we discuss it here. I highly recommend picking it up if you can. I'm absolutely in love with mine. It'll be even more awesome once they get it upgraded to Android 4.2.
I too purchased the AT&T Note 8. On the morning it became available actually. I too love the Note 8 and highly recommend it. Especially so with the bundle deal that brings the price down to $199.
That said I have found a few issues that are in need of fixing. Firstly, of course, is the ability to root so one can use Titanium Backup to debloat. But also many have found that the screen freezes momentarily randomly. If you want to use it to play games you will be disappointed. Also, every time you power up (boot up) the current version of the software resets all factory defaults so that 3rd. party keyboards for example are deselected and you have to manually select them as default. I personally have also found that the Samsung calendar as well as google calendar doesn't automatically sync with your Samsung and/or your Google accounts, you have to do this manually as well.
these are all reasons that I bought the wifi version; we already have root, there are custom roms/kernels, custom recovery, and since there is wifi almost everywhere, and where there isn't, I can tether to my Note2, I didnt see any reason to give ATT another dime of my $$$$
hope you guys get root/custom recovery soon, because a tweaked, debloated,OC'd Note 8.0 is nothing but fun!

I hear you. However, some of us who were buying new phones anyway the AT&T bundle deal pricing of $199 for the Note 8 as opposed to the $499 retail made sense. Yes, I would liked to have root already but I will live with the wait in light of the initial cost savings. Now when can I get a Note 3???? :laugh:
not sure where you heard the wifi was 499; I got mine for 350 at Best buy, and I think there are places selling at 325...
but yeah, 199 is a nice price....
Note 3 is a ways away, i think!
I'm sure you'll have root soon; maybe send a pm to Chainfire, and see if he is working on it yet...

I also find that Chrome has problems. I don't know if it's a Chrome issue or a ROM issue but Chrome seems to not get click placement right when tapping on the screen, especially when using the pen. You have to tap below a link to get it to actually fire. Very annoying. Even with the brand new Chrome 28 release a day ago, it still does this. I'm using the stock browser until this gets resolved.

Is almost certainly a Chrome issue. Chrome 26 works fine. The problem was introduced in Chrome 27. I'm sure it'll get fixed eventually. In the meantime I'm just using the stock browser. I didn't see it as a big enough issue to do something drastic like taking it back.

Last night's update of Chrome Beta (their second patch for this issue) fixed the problem for me. It will likely be a number of weeks before the patch makes it to the stable Chrome release.

Yeah I just saw that. Thank God they fixed it! I want to use Chrome rather than the stock browser. I hate that sites I open on the Note 8.0 don't get synced to my other devices. haha

Okay, I thought I was either drunk or crazy. I swore Chrome was registering wrong clicks and it would eventually just stop with the input all together. What a terrible bug - I too was forced to use the stock browser. Glad it's fixed in the latest release. Let's hope that makes it into the Play store sooner rather than later.

In January, I would bring an action against Samsung Europe.
Samsung told me that has never released an update because the device works well and has no bug.
Someone can someone tell me if the TAB GT-P6800 has any bug. It's very important to start with any action....
If I wrong section, please move this topic.
1. Exynos exploit
2. Superbrick (aka "brickbug"). There is a troll user that will tell you this is just false, but many a good elite recognised developer will tell otherwise. I have seen the JB kernel patch and JB code changes signed off by Samsung Engineers. So if you have ICS, you're at risk.
There are apps available at XDA and Google Play to check if your device is at risk for both.
I won't bother with links, you can Google the info yourself
Best of luck

I doubt they will bother wasting time on our device when they have almost dropped it from the line up as a new device.
Im in hong kong now and go to official samsung store all they sell is the 10.1 tab 3 and 8.0 tab 3 and 7.0 tab 3 plus a kids version.
they have a few tab 2 still.i havent seen the older style tabs like 8.9,7.7 in the shop.also cant see any tab with a 30 pin connector.
im hoping they make a new tab with good screen like our device,maybe the next gen of tabs...hopefully they have USB 3.0 aswell
so we can charge and usb host at same time easier like the note 3.
i dont know why they still sell the s2 phone everyhwere here and will continue to develope software but not support us top paying customers
that forked out big dollars for a 7.7 tab years ago.i could buy a new tab now for half of what my 7.7 cost when it was first released.

Looks like the AT&T Tab S2 now supports NumberSync. Can someone post the AT&T Marshmallow ROM? I'd like to install it on my international SM-T815, and see if I can get calls to work. Also, the AT&T ROM should allow the Samsung Gear app to work.

You neither could nor would want to install the att firmware on your device.
If it could and you somehow managed to flash the bootloader you would end up with a locked device forever.
Flashing the system.img is possible, but why when the MM software is already available for your device?

Like I said:
1. I would like to use the Numbersync feature so I can share the same phone number across all my devices.
2. I would like to install the Samsung Gear app from the PlayStore so I can pair the tablet with my watch.
Instead of messing with the SM-T817A ROM, I'll probably just pick up a tablet from AT&T.

So if I have the Sm-t817a tablet will I eventually get the MM update? I bought it off Craigslist the other day and didn't care about the LTE but it was perfect condition 9.7" for $300 . I don't really care about rooting it or anything and it sounds like I'd be screwed anyway if I was bit I have my Nexus devices for that.

So, How did it go? I got the update a couple of days after you and everything is perfect except for the keyboard. Very Often, while I am typing, the system inserts spaces and misses characters etc. It can be a real pain in the a$$ to type on the tablet now.
Well, here we are, 17 days later; and the typing problem is Long Gone. Weird... But, Good !!
BTW
I performed a factory reset before and after upgrading just to be safe.
Anyone else ever receive the update? I'm still stuck on Lollipop.

I finally got the update. I didn't have my AT&T sim in the tablet anymore. As soon as I put the AT&T sim back in and checked for the update, it pushed out. Not sure if this will affect anyone else or not.
won't find the update
I've tried doing the update OTA and it hasn't found it yet.
I've tried to do it through KIES and it says that this device is supported by Smartswitch and won't let me do it that way.
I want to do it through Odin, but I cannot find the update file.
Does anyone have a link or copy of the rom so I can get mine updated?
Thanks!
After talking with AT&T, the only way to update this tablet without AT&T service is to go to Best Buy and have them push it for you manually. Alternatively, you can call Samsung @800 726 7864 and they have a way to push it from the cloud or something.
Yes, old thread, but this tablet is STILL the bomb and many people are buying them used off of eBay only to find the last owner never bothered to update to Marshmallow.

I was in the market for a new e-reader (OG Nook Book just wasn't cutting it any longer). Ended up with a Tab 2, but the Nook version due to the additional $50 discount. Was surprised it came with MM, but now I'm trying to figure out how I can get Nougat on it. This tablet really is the bomb!
Hi all,
So I basically bought fake Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge - was confirmed by Samsung service centre. Firs time in my life is a victum of scam :crying: All reported to police etc. but the problem remains - I need this phone for work. In particular, I need to use the app called "Samsung Gear 360" it works with Samsung 360 camera. The fake one has "Android 6.0.1" which does not support the app.
Question: is there a way to make the fake one to support the app? Or can I update Android 7 to this fake Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge? so I can work untill I can buy the genuine one.
Thanks a lot in advance!
thats probably different phone that looks like s7.
see what you have in model info?

Unlikely I'm afraid as it would rely heavily on Samsung framework and services, which your device is probably lacking

Not being rude, but I think there is a communication gap here. Firstly you seem to hand misinterpreted his initial post and now you are making no sense at all...
ok, so point him just 1 rom that he can flash if you are so helpful and intelligent.
answer to 1st post is:
no, you cant flash, because you dont know whats inside your phone, it could be mediatek, qualcom or whatever chinese put in.
so no app for this device

Wow, although not uncommon, that puts us at like #8 in OTA's/Updates, with 1 being more significant, prior to this one). Checking out the goods now, always pleased to see them improving the camera function, which is the feature that snagged-me years ago!!

Did this a few days ago and got One UI 3.1 right away. I had been having the same error for the last 2 weeks when checking for updates. I'm guessing that they just blocked updates for certain device variants so that they can roll out 3.1 slowly, but the update is on their server just waiting for us guys and it can be claimed early by using Smart Switch on PC.
