Greenify problem J500FN Lollipop - Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers

Hello, I always used Greenify in my devices, but with J5 I've a big problem, I'm not able to use it anymore. I don't have root and I don't want to use it, so I use Greenify non-root mode. It worked for 2 days, but then it has stopped working. The app asked me to activate it in accessibility settings, but when I do it there's a message that says "Settings has stopped working". I can't hibernate apps anymore, and I don't want to root my phone. I'm on Samsung Stock lollipop and I already tried a data factory reset, I also flashed last firmware with odin, nothing to do. In Marshmallow there isn't this problem but I don't want to upgrade, I also tried to clear data and chache or to uninstall Greenify. Is there a fix? Help!

You need to install a TTS, like GoogleTTS. Then choose GoogleTTS at language settings if i remember properly and then the problem is gone. I had same problem in past, and after i googled, i got this answer which solved my problem.
Im not sure, but i think Greenfy does slow down the phone over time. I always used it, even now, but ill check about this on google sometime.

You don't need root lol. Just check Google Play for Google TTS and install it, or download it from apkmirror if you don't have gapps. Then put it on in settings like I told you in my previous post.

if possible go back to 4.2.2 and start over again or just install a custom rom and flash gapps

Yes that is always my last option.
I have faced this issue on 4.2.2 as well, I had solved this by stopping Freedom
This time post the OTA upgrade I lost root access, post which I could not stop freedom post which I deleted freedom and needless to say restarted the phone several times but no resolution. I am trying all kind of things on my phone before flashing it.
So let me know if you want me to try something else as well

Ok Google not working

Since updating my firmware to G900FXXU1ANE2_G900FOXA1ANE2_BTU my google ok voice command is not working even in the Google Now app, everything is switched on to recognise voice. Im not sure it is the update that has caused this, can anyone confirm this? Im on the Galaxy SM900F international latest firmware. Thinking of going back to original firmware if this is the case.
Could be a bug, is the app up to date? Try going into application manager, go to all, find google search and press it. Clear Cache and clear data and reset it to factory or if possible uninstall (if uninstalling don't worry about cache or data) then reinstall or update depending on your situation.

Already tried that thanks Gareth it worked randomly once then wouldn't work again I think it's possibly the upgrade have you upgraded your firmware? and does google voice still work??

I am running the phoenix rom. I always use the s voice rather than Google itself but Google search does work. If you're root you could remove the app completely with "root app delete" then download it off Google play again? If it's a bug with the firmware then it should be patched very quickly.
Got it working again not sure how or why tried turning a few Google now settings off then back on again seems to be working fine now was strange so maybe it is a bug thanks for your input Gareth. Ive usually flashed omega roms in the past (S3) but with the phone been so fast root has been good enough for now

this same thing happened to me yesterday when i was trying to download stuff from xposed, it said downloading error 504. i didnt do anything with my phone like the guides tell u. they say delete cache and data and etc from play store app in app manager. i didnt do that.
this is what i done- i disabled mobile data as i was using wifi but i generally just keep it on just incase . then i fully turned off my router and then switched it back on. then i made my phone forget my wifi and then i set it up again. then everything was fine and all was back to normal. i heard this happens sometimes, dont do any big steps just be patient and it will sort out with time, as its a gateway error and nothing u or the service can do about it- i know this according to what ive already read. :good:
ok, thanks nayanwaghmare, but my problem is a little diferent, I can download, apks, from any source, but when I reach the screen where you see the permissions an the options to cancel or install, the button for.installing does nothing, only the cancel or back work, only the play store has no problem, as it installs automatically, I dont know what to do
reflash your rom i would say
I will try that , thanks

Do you have any screen overlay app running, like screen filter or lux? You need to disable those to be able to click the "install" button -- this is a security feature in android.

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?

You can also delete Google Play Services cache, this works pretty well in those cases. Even if you have problems trying to download a device system update.
Even it's data (in this case you'll have to add an account for Google's data backup again).
However, keep in mind this kind of processes won't work well if you have enabled apps, device features or Magisk modules that force device to save battery in some way.

Would be good to tell us which system you've installed.
Any custom ROM? Are you in stock?
On the first case, check ROM installation.
If it came with gapps preinstalled, better flash an updated version of that ROM (clean or dirty would change, depending of Android major verion in which that update is based), otherwise flash another gapps, I use OpenGapps.Try to flash, at least, nano gapps.
If you're on stock, things are quite different, since there you haven't the same way so solve things, more than than reflashing firmware.

Stock Android One version 9 (Pie) with regular updates. :silly:
Looks like something is screwed up there.
Is your device rooted?
I feel that would be better to backup your data and flash latest firmware with Mi Flasher tool.
The same is happening some times and on my A1 and is fully updated stock rom without root or any other thing...
I think it has to do with the latest version of Google store or Google services...
