S health pedometer/step counter stuck on 0 - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey my s5 s health app stopped counting my steps, last recorts of it logs are from 30.11.2014.
I did try to get ps4 remote play to work and that involved removing superSU, could that be the reason why it stopped or what.
I tried to restore factory settings from settings, but only thing that it did was removing all my apps BUT it didn't even wipe my root?
I'm on latest stock rom with root and my knox **** is still on 0x0 state, that's why I haven't just install twrp or cwm recovery and restore my nandroid backup already.
How I can get that counter to work again? Weirdest thing is that s health seems to work, I can get my pulse and all other things too BUT not my steps.
All things that I managed to fish out of google was cases when that app was stopped completely, not like mine where everything seems to work but it doesn't count my steps at all.
Lockscreen and s health app both shows just 0 steps.

Sadly no, i had to reflash that stock rom again and do a full wipe of phone memory.
At least when i re rooted i could use titanium backup so it wasn't that painful experience, and I didn't need to format my internal or external sd-cards.
so after all that hassle only data loss that I had where those steps that it didn't counted, as for what caused this? Your guess is as good as mine.

Hey,
Thanks for responding. I actually resolved this. I ended up clearing all the data for both s health and s apps, updating both, and signing up with samsung for an account and poof, it started working.

Ok your solution seems to be better, my solution is like using nukes for mosquitos as it is bit aggressive for one app.
I have to remember your solution if this ever happens again.

S-Voice crashing

Has anyone else had an issue with s-voice not working? Mine opens fine, takes the voice command, acknowledges it, and then black screen and crash. I've rooted and disabled all the AT&T labeled apps in TiBu and that's it. Any input on troubleshooting would be great!

That's exactly your issue by experience, you can't disable chatOn, somehow it is needed food S voice to work, if you removed them you still need to restore with Kies or Odin, if you didn't remove them, then unfreeze them.
Yeah I had removed them in TiBu and then restored them, but the problems persist. Right after I posted the thread I read another with the same problem. So, right now I'm in the middle of a reset.

Tryng to restore them after been removed doesn't work , like I mentioned before, the same happened to me, it seems that once you remove them something gets corrupted in the shared apps and it doesn't get fixed restoring those apps back in order to fox you must restore with Kies or Odin. but don't worry, you won't lose your data, settings and apps, you will get all the original apps back just re-root, and this time just remove the rest but these ones.

unfortunately settings has stopped

Hi,
Just bought my note 3 as an upgrade to my note 2.
Decided that rooting would be a good option for both at this time as it meant I could use titanium backup pro to transfer all my data and apps over using my 64gb memory card.
Both phones rooted fine via ODIN.
Backup up fine and apparently restored fine but now when I go into settings and then notification panel (either via the settings menu or the shortcut in the home pull down) it immediately says
'Unfortunately, settings has stopped'
What I have noticed is that the notification drop down menus are now in the same order/layout as my note 2.
What I don't know is how to clear whatever cache or program is stopping me from opening to rearrange it now.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
I have the same problem with my rooted Note 3. I have seen other threads that got the same message but in other areas of settings, and they suggested to Factory Reset the phone. I don't want to do that. I'm hoping someone has a different solution.
hey,
my solution:
-) download the original rom
-) flash with odin
-) you will got the same problem again: unfortunately settings has stopped (its okay)
-) go in samsung ORIGINAL "recovery-mode" IMPORTANT
-) do all wipes
-)enjoy
after that you are on original samusng rom (if u use4.3 rom you will get knox! it is better to use 4.2.1 (if u can))
now you can start all from new, root, cwm, rom...
i got a note 2..
EASY
Sure 4.2.1 in a note 3 - seems legit

Regards to OP - Unroot your phone via SuperSU, reflash Stock ROM. That will fix your settings has stopped issue. -- As for using N2 stuff on an N3 from a backup, You may have to read up a bit more, it's not as simple as one might think I'm afraid.

Using titanium can give these errors. I stopped using it a while back. Use Google to back up your apps and Samsung to backup calls sms etc.
Flash your phone with all the wipes and sign in to your Google account and it will restore your apps and then sign in to your Samsung account and restore and should have all stuff back and a fully functional phone

No problem. I'll do it again and wipe cache and see what happens. It's late here, so I'll do it tomorrow.
OK, let us know how you do :good:
Everything is good now. No "Unfortunately setting has stopped" messages.
This is what I did:
- Unrooted via SuperSU
- Reflashed Stock ROM via Odin (ROM downloaded from SamMobile)
- Booted into Recovery Mode and did wipe cache and wipe data/factory reset
- Rooted
- Reinstalled all apps via AppBrain
- Spent 2 days reconfiguring my apps.
I didn't do any restores with Titanium Backup. That may have been the cause of the original problem.
Thanks everybody for your help
Glad you got sorted, reconfiguration of apps is a nightmare! - just done it myself with that new kitkat launcher on the play store. Took forever.

I got your solution for you! I have the same problem on my non rooted Verizon Galaxy Note Pro. As an attempt to work around it, I installed "Galaxy S4 Style Settings", and sure enough, I got to my settings. What surprised me though, is that after running that app once, the regular settings UI works properly.
I'm holding on to the app incase the error comes back. I haven't had a chance to dig up why this fixed it.

Note 4 reboots randomly only when rooted and it happens mostly when it's idle

I have the Note 4 (SM-N910H), I've had mine rooted for 2 weeks and it kept randomly rebooting twice or so every 1-2 days, now I've removed the root and everything seems to be working fine with no reboots for 1 week. Most (I even think all of them) of the random reboots happened while the phone was idle (screen off).
I've rooted using the CF-Auto-Root via odin.
Anyone knows why the root was causing random reboots for me? I've tried with knox disabled and enabled and with both options I get the same reboots while the phone is idle, also I would like to mention that I don't have an SD card in my phone. I tried everything, Tried a recovery reset, tried a soft reset... It only happens when I root it.
Thanks.
Sometimes xposed module can be a culprit.

Xposed sucks on a stock odex roms. I suggest you flash a new rom or deodex your stock rom.
the note4 i have atm was never rooted (efuse intact), but it also reboots randomly every few days, sometimes every few hours!
so i would say root is NOT the general cause!!
maybe, or perhaps root makes it worse, but it cant be the only reason!!

In my case it's the issue, I've had mine un-rooted for 3 weeks now with no any random reboot, I rooted it yesterday using CF auto root just to test and it rebooted today while it was idle. I've never used any Xposed modules. It's also on stock rom and stock recovery.

I think it's worth a try to unroot and see if the problem is solved for you.
Thank you.
Do you know how to unroot?
The biggest problem is how to pass my apps and data without Titanium that needs root access..

Just flash the latest stock ROM from sam mobile (http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/) for your exact model number and CSC using odin, no data or apps will be lost and root will be automatically removed after the process.
You can install "Phone INFO ★Samsung★" from play store to know what your exact model number and CSC, you can also type all the fields you get after you open it (except for your IMEI) and write them down here to me so I can give you a link of the stock ROM from sam mobile so you just download and flash via odin.
After rooting open SuperSu and choose never for the question to also disable Knox. Until now I didn't have any unexpected reboot.

I mentioned in my original post that I tried with both, knox disabled and enabled but with both options I had the same random reboots, no matter what I do, the same problem for me as long as I am rooted. Did you have random reboots before while you are rooted and now you fixed it somehow?

Anyone with an idea on how i can fix this
Go to Recovery and wipe data and cache.
Not all Xposed modules are compatible with LL or MM.

Snapchat no longer letting me sign in

I have a G935A. Snapchat was working fine, then i rooted and it was still working fine. When i installed xposed it stopped working. I read its a common problem with snapchat, so i uninstalled xposed and it still didnt work. I tried restoring the phone 3 times and nothing has worked. All it says is my login failed. I can sign into the account on an iPhone and i can make a new account on my S7, but i cant sign into my regular account. Any suggestions?
Did you remove xposed app or uninstall xposed ? You must flash xposed uninstaller via TWRP.
Happened to me once on a different phone after xposed was installed.
Two methods are:
1. Flash Xposed uninstalled with TWRP - login to snapchat, installed xposed frameworks again.
2. Have another rooted device (no xposed) - sign into snapchat, use Titanium backup to backup snapchat, Make sure u CLEAR the data for snapchat on that phone or delete the app, don't log out!, Use titanium backup on your root S7 Edge phone (with or withour xposed) and restore that file.
You should be automatically logged in.

Yes uninstalling the app directly from your phone just stops u from controlling xposed u have to Uninstall the framework with flashfire or TWRP.. If you have already tried that I had this same problem the other day.. I actually heard that snapchat is now checking for actual just root as well.. I Uninstalled root completely logged in then re rooted and re installed xposed. Sounds like a lot but it's worth it. Only takes 10 minutes.
if you have a backup like titanium backup of the snapchat app AFTER you've logged into it, i think you should be able to restore it without having to uninstall xposed..

I've tried flashing the uninstall package multiple times, the Xposed app says no framework is installed. I've also reflashed the stock firmware multiple times trying to fix this issue and NOTHING is working. I tried backing up snapchat on another rooted phone and restoring it on the s7 and that didn't work either. This is extremely frustrating

Did you clean up and fully unroot your phone? Root is now being checked for
FIX
ONLY FOR THOSE WITH SUPERSU ROOT
Facedthe same problem today mate this is how i did it and just takes you couple of minutes
just temporaily unroot your phone with your SuperSU app if it still does'nt work. if you uninstalled xposed.
you will see that you are gonna be able to snapchat right the moment you are unrooted.
login
grab yourself a flashable zip of supersu to re-root your phone and flash it with TWRP
you should be logged in and have you root
make sure to get titanium backup right away if you didnt have it already and BACKUP your snapchat app + data.
saves you from doing this all over again if you ever should be logged out of snapchat.
for the new roms with magisk v7
i cant figure out how to do since since we cant en/disable our root anymore (correct me if am wrong cause i dont know how to do it with the new magisk manager )
automagisk wont do the trick so i dont know
hit thanks if this helped you.

you have supersu or magisk root?
if you updated form supersu to magisk without wiping data this could be you problem..
go to twrp ---> wipe ----> Format data
type yes
log in with your unrooted phone
re root phone
get yourself a backup of the app with titanium backup
please let me know if this worked for you
Hello,
I've got a question about snapchat.
I'm sorry if im posting this in the wrong place, im new here!
I want to use snapchat 9.3.1.0 so i can use snapprefs.
I'm rooted and have xposed framework installed.
I am currently logged in in the newest snapchat version.
I made a backup of my snapchat with TB, deleted the new version of snapchat, installed snapchat 9.3.1.0, opened titanium backup and restored 'DATA ONLY'.
When i open snapchat, the app says: There are no snaps, and it says i've got no friends (which makes me sad). Any idea how i can fix this?
Thank you!
Lorenzo

Hi mate,
I wanna do what you did, as in full unroot then login then re-root. I just wanted to ask do I need to have any custom recovery software installed before doing this? I rooted my phone with ODIN. I DONT have XPOSED installed contrary to what EVERYONE in this forum keeps saying that i only have to uninsall xposed lol.
I have a rooted s5 too so could I potentially login on snapchat on that then create a titanium backup of the app+data then transfer across to me s7edge? That is how I initially remained logged in on snapchat when switching from the s5 to the s7 edge.
Please help! everyone else is just being vague!!

You could just fully unroot within the supersu app re login and then use Odin to re root. .. Or use your s5 to log in and back it up and transfer to your s7.. But you'd have to unroot your s5 if you did it thst way.

I love casper for that function exactly, you can watch peoples stories (stalk) without them knowing. The root session used to keep me logged in on both but I think SC have found a way to detect root use of a third part app which is a shame. Not sure if anyone knows how to mask casper from SC at all on here?
