S Health not working - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Galaxy S5 Rooted
Model : G-900F
Android version : 5.0
I have tried installing the latest version of the S Health app and when i open it, it says 'S health services needs to be updated to the latest version etc, press OK to update and Cancel to close the app' I clicked OK and it open the Samsung Apps app and it says package not found.
I have tried downloading the apk file from google and when i try to install it says ' App not installed'.
I am rooted and I wasn't the one to root the phone, I bought a used phone. Can someone help me out with how to get the S health app working?
Thanks

Have tried that twice and since i am rooted, if i go back to stock 4.4 will i be able to upgrade to Lollipop officially anywhere in the world, will that somehow solve the problem or the S health works fine with other rooted phones?

Yea you can upgrade if you go back to KK
If factory resetting fails to fix it, just flash the stock Lollipop ROM you are already running using ODIN
Grab the ROM from sammobile . com

Okay I am sorry, I am a total noob at this, can you please guide me which exact firmware i need to download? a stock lollipop one
I did the *#1234# thingy and i got these
AP: G900FXXU1BOC7
CP: G900FXXU1BOC7
CSC: G900FITVBOC1
please guide me to the right firmware, I would be so grateful. I just want to un-root my phone, maybe S health will work for me then.
Thanks

You only need to find firmware for the G900F, and your country
So pick the newest from sammobiles firmware section for those two above criteria

Fyi flash OA6 not OD3 or OF6, or OG1. The last two will cause you hassles with other things.

OTA updates not working on I9505

Hello,
I've bought S4 few days ago. Out of the box I was running with stock firmware without rooting or CWM. Yesterday I've rooted the device and flashed CWM. Few hours later I thought that I'll be better off with stock firmware and updates available on time. But here's the problem: I cannot make OTA work anymore. I've flashed AMDE, the firmware which was out of the box (I have BOOTLOADER, PDA, MODEM, CSC and pit file). I've unrooted and flashed stock recovery. Whole device is official (Status: Official, Binary: Official, Settings > About device: Official) and flash counter is reset to 0 with TriangleAway. Still, after flashing stock firmware, it OTA still says "Newest updates already installed, while this firmware is 2 months old. Out of the box installed updates just fine. CSC is set to XEO as I live in Poland. I have no idea what to do next
Thanks in advance.

It just checks the update and acts like I have the newest one installed. Not "System modified" or something else, just there are no updates for me like I would have AMEA/BMF8 installed already, while I have AMDE.

buddy MF8 is latest one. If OTA will be available to your country it won't say "You already have latest firmware installed".

I've flashed AMDE like said earlier. But I do not receive AMEA update, which was possible when I bought the device. AMDE is way older than AMEA.
Kies also does not want to update my device. It shows my PDA: AMDE and CSC XEO but "Your device does not support update over the KIES". Everything has status "official" with flash counter 0, but acts like modified. It's annoying.

In the last, I would say, please let it updated using ODIN. Download the latest firmware of your zone & flash it using ODIN.
I had this problem with an s2 ages ago. Turned out I needed to reflash stock firmware and the csc. The problem is usually a mismatch between pda/cdc/phone but its working out which is wrong. Best bet is samfirmware site. Find the latest for your region and and carrier if its branded then flash that and try again

Well, the problem is that I work at Samsung's R&D and I have full packages ready to flash but non of them fix the OTA updates, and I cannot contact the developer responsible for OTA module
Thanks anyway.

[Q] Your device has been modified..

Hey People,
i previously rooted my phone on stock firmware along with changing the kernel. I have no restored and removed root back to stock but i get this message when doing a OTA update as i need the latest update to enable 4G on my phone. It says Your device has been modified. Software updates are not available. How do i go about fixing this? I have done some research and used the triangle app to reset the flash counter which now says Official rather then Custom In download mode? If i flash the firmware does it automatically Re flash my Kernel or is that separate? I have looked for the stock i9505 kernel i Just cant seem to find it.
Will appreciate the help
Thanks

flash stock firmware, stock kernel included
It's normal that it says that. Just install Xposed framework, then Wanam Xposed, there is an option to fake the system status as official and thus you'll be able to update firmware OTA.

Thank you for your answer, but unfortunately I can't use Kies since I use Linux and there is no Kies for Linux. May be another solution like adb?

I wiped the data, without success, then I flashed everything again with Heindall 1.4.0, then wiped everything again. Now I have official status and should receive OTA updates.
Edit: but after rooting the official status is lost. Now I think this may be normal.

firmware GT-I9505 HELP!!!

hi guys i'm new to this site I'm after some stock firmware for my Samsung galaxy s4 GT-I9505 I've rooted my s4 and I have to unroot it so I can send it back to Samsung I live in Australia don't know if that makes a difference or not any help would be awesome thanks :laugh:
i think you can go back to stock, just download the stock firwmware which is available here (type the typical stuff before and after, I can't post links yet) samsung-updates (you will have to find you phone, region and software version) and then google how to revert root back to stock. It should be fairly easy. I actually used an austrialian stock firmware (XSA) to get my phone to recognize the LTE in my region. It worked like a charm. Afterwards I decided to root.
Hope that helps.

You are right!
I would say using Odin it's the best way to go for a stock firmware and then later let Kies update it in case you don't find the latest stock firmaware

update problem after update G900FXXU1ANG8

Hello,
i use a G900F and had root with towelroot.
i did an update on my Phone today to G900FXXU1ANG8. the installation went perfect.
but after the update i tried a new search for a software update and now i got the notification:
the operating system on your device has been modified in an unauthorized way. try downloading software updates using samsung kies on your pc or visit a customer service center.
I also use the app Phone info and when i check my knox counter it says 0X0 so normally this isnt triggerd.
when i connect to kies it just says my Phone has the latest software?
Hi,
u have just lose the Root. towelroot only work with OLD kernel.
i suggest u to Downgrade to ANG2 and use This method to gain Root and stay on this Version Until new trick was discovered to have again root on new stock roms.
Best regards
but i dont want root again. i didnt use it. so what then?

I've already done it 2 times, without any problems
1. Find your Firmware and download
2. Flash via ODIN
3. Boot into Recovery -> Factory Reset
4. Reboot device
That's all
