Well there is another way to do this only if you have rooted device and xposed wanam module installed.
just open wanam>system and Enable keypard symbols.
!!! ALWAYS MAKE BACKUPS OF THE FILES YOU EDIT! I am not responsable for the things you do! Do this on your own risk! !!!
You need to edit your feature file. (/system/csc/others.xml or /system/csc/feature.xml)
Between the lines <FeatureSet> and </FeatureSet> you have to insert
<CscFeature_Sip_EnableSymbolInSecondary>en_GB;de;de_DE;fr_FR</CscFeature_Sip_EnableSymbolInSecondary>

If you dont have wanam module installed then use es file explorer and backup your feature.xml and other.xml files (just in case you need your original files back) and then replace feature.xml file with one i have provided in attachment.
Hope this helps.

That XML file contains sales codes and region codes. If codes don't match it may make a difference. I don't know for sure though. I used xposed modules on the Note II and Note 3 but not on the Note 4. I have seen where some people were having problems with it but I don't know what all modules they were using.

Well, On Note 4 your have to freeze Shelth and health services. Without freezing these 2 services you might end up in boot loop (which i did twice). Once xposed and wanam are set you can unfreeze them (well i dont even need them).
sales code and region code hmmmm there was nothing much in the file lol anyone can have it.
BUT i will recommend making backup and then editing the original files one your Note. Use attached files as guideline where to put thing and stuff.

It is just the three digit CSC code but phones from different regions have different codes. Like I said I don't even know if it makes a difference.

I would like to use xposed an Wanam.... but as I understand, it will make my new phone lag

[Q] HELP from STOCK ROM Users [Modifying TouchWiz30Launcher.apk]

Good day developers, can you help me, Im using STOCK ROM DXMA1 (deodexed). I want to modify my "TouchWiz30Launcher.apk", instead of 4 icon Column dock, I want to make it 5. I follow this guide somehow, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1668984 but it didn't help me. It made my "touchwiz30Launcher.apk" 5 docks but when I put the other application(last time it was 4 and now it turns 5, 4+1=5) on DOCK, the application disappear. Then I tried following this guide again, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1500230 although it is for Galaxy Ace, I think it is similar somehow with SGY (note: I only did was, PART II number 1 and 2.)Then the problem in my first try modifying the TouchWiz30Launcher.apk is similar with the second one. Guys if you know, can you help me with this problem or guide me or if there are some similar questions/forum post like this that had been answered, kindly post it? Help me please.​

[Q] How to get camera icon on lock screen in 4.4.2

Hi, I'm running an official NB4 4.4.2 stock ROM on my N9005, and I have seen others using official 4.4.2 with a small camera icon in the bottom corner of the lockscreen. Is this only for NB5 ROMs or am I doing something wrong here?
Thanks in advance!

Did you try turning off pin/pattern/password? I had the same problem at first but figured it out on my own. AFAIK, the lockscreen shortcuts only appear when you set your default lockscreen as swipe only.

It was already set to swipe by default. I tried changing it to pin, then back to swipe, but no luck. I don't even have the option for lockscreen shortcuts.

if you have root explorer, go to system/csc & rename customer.xml to customer.xml.bak - reboot and you'll have shortcut options in lockscreen :laugh::good:

Works for me too, but this is a bad solution.
Should we compare a customer.xml with a working shortcut and our with not working shortcut, to find the diff?

Well if someone has a copy of the customer.xml text from a working version, then we'll know what to remove from our own version. It might just need editing to represent another country. Are there any patent based restrictions in Germany imposed on Samsung?

Well it's a good workaround for now until a better solution is found. I'll keep looking, but I think I'll wait until an official ROM using UK based NB4 is released.
I just updated to 4.4.2 (using the mexican telcel NA2) rom and I want rid of the stupid icon.
I'm on Rogers if that makes any diff, but I've attached my customer.xml (renamed to customer.txt) if someone smarter than me wants to try and sort out the difference.
Any news here?
I am having the same problem with DBT XXUGNG1.

I think the answer should be Yes Once an app has not been installed, it can not be used.
But that is what I have tested on my Galaxy Note 3. On your S5 it may be different. You can check by yourself:
- Install Shortcut Master app.
- Open app > Menu > Search... > enter 'band' and tap Search button to see it it yields any result.
- If you see some thing like 'com.sec.android.band' so it has been installed. Otherwise it has not been installed.
You can also tap on its apk to install it.
Great information. Good to know for future removals. I've already removed it

How can I remove carrier installed apps on S8 - Rogers Canada

Hello
I want to uninstall and remove and spotify app which came pre-installed with the phone. I am using S8 on Rogers network in Canada. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Have you tried disabling the apps you don't need? If you haven't, then long press on the shortcut and pick "app info". There you will find disable button(if not grayed out). That is the easiest way off turning off the app which won't show in your apps anymore, but it won't uninstall it.

Thanks for the tip.
However, I have my own apk and wouldn't install saying the system already have file with same name. I can disable but it will not solve my problem. Any work around or ways to remove the preinstalled spotify files?

Go to apps then click Spotify then click storage then clear data and cache.
If you want to remove the pre installed version you need to be rooted to remove system apps.
The all you have will be the same as the one pre installed. You can always download an updated version.

Not if its a hacked version of Spotify.
I see no reason why someone would disable the included Spotify app to load "their own version"
The included app can be updated right from the google play store, so there is no reason someone should be uninstalling it to install a .apk version.
I am on a Rogers S8, so I know this is true.

Thanks for the link to the forum post.
But the problem is - after doing this, the phone restarts and erase everything again and installs all the carrier apps. Is there anyway this can be stopped?
Thanks a lot.
Pull your sim card out and change it to xac.

Will it be different or remain the same when I put the sim back in? My experience is the sim erases everything and install all the carrier apps again.

Check out this XDA article. It details instructions to remove apps/packages without root, using ADB. Be super careful doing this or using a package disabler app Like BK Package Disabler or Adhell (which is free)...if you disable the wrong system package you may end up disabling important functions/features.
https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/
What you can do is only disable it. That's what I'm doing with texture also and zone. Don't flash XAC if you are still a Rogers user you will loose wificall and Volte.
Only time you can remove it completely is to root. (Not available)
Or flash the XAC but modify the feature file in XAC to add the lines to enable wifi call and Volte. And again not possible cause there is no root yet.
So it takes you back to the 1rst and only option and don't try any even when they claim it uninstall without root(it does not work with Samsung phones )
Just disable it "I think you know how hold the app icon and you see a popup to disable"
If you rebooted the phone , app will not show to show it back enable it again .
When any app is disabled you can't download the app it will tell you it's available unless if it's a higher version.
So if for some reason you want to have a clone " exemple disable original Spotify to download a cracked ) use apk unpacker and change the signature name on the cracked apk.

You need APK Editor Pro. Use it to edit the package name (3,8,9 letters) line 6 in AndroidManifest.xml (XML File Edit). Don't forget to save the edited file and then generate new apk.
I have tried to update the adhell code from github ... and it messed up the entire build process ... the dev swithched to knox 3.3, and i guess that might cause my issue ..
having same issues either it gives me a 201 error even after multiple code recreations anddifferent versions. or it just closes and reasks for klm and we repeat tried creating own...still no go......any help....i had and forgot to just renew, so i accidently got rid of to recreate new...ooopps on my end and now i am here.......helllppp lol
I use apk easy tool for pc to decompile citizen v apk and modify the app name then compile and works great. I was having issues with apk editor pro on phone.
Just installed using this guide: https://is.gd/note9adhell
Pay attention that for Note 9, you need to edit the package name by editing AndroidManifest.xml, and not by using Basic Edit.
I used Basic Edit and it caused parse error.
So why do you guys all go through the process of compiling the app and all that other stuff when you can simply download the APK and install it.l, then enter your license key? I've been doing it that way for over 6 months, always worked perfectly. But today I downloaded the latest 3.1.1.290 and for some reason it won't accept my license key, it's always worked fine, I did start a thread about it and then found this so thought I'd post here too, see if anyone can help.

Probably because the dev doesn't recommend it and that's how other adblockers got black listed from Knox access. You don't even have to compile it.
You can use the app editor pro and edit the manifest.
Yours isn't working because you didn't modify probably....
