hi, i have some samsung applications on my phone. i tried to install on my google nexus 7. some of them installed others didn't. the ones installed crashed and the ones worked gave me a message that i cant run this application on that device.
i think that android application should run on any android system regardless of the manufacturer. am i right? do these application will work if i root my device or maybe install a custom rom.
Dear i9190 owners
I have applied the root method of the i9195 to my i9190 and the root suceeded. use the same files and the same recovery but apply the su application using recovery instead downloading it from the market.
My i9190 now is rooted and works perfectly.
kind regards
Update:
after you install the kernel and recovery and the su app you might get an annoying message saying : Detection Information - The device has detected an application attempting unpermitted actions. To protect your device, it is recommended you reboot"
to stop this message from appearing do this :
1. Use File Manager with root explorer instead and mount SYSTEM as WRITABLE.
2. Go to: /data/data/ look for com.sec.knox.seandroid and rename it to 000.knox.seandroid or whathever you wish.. Same thing applies to com.sec.knox.store
3. Go to: /system/app/ and DELETE: KNOXAgent.apk, KNOXAgent.odex, KNOXStore.apk, KNOXStore.odex
4. Restart
Tips? Help plz

Yeah, i dit the same, even tried the files (from todat) at development forum.
Everything workes fine, until today. (before and after folloing the new guide) same problem.
My locksreen hangs and give me "wait" or "ok" choice, all the time. Programs that worked before begin to fail me, hangs and not work.
No sound from spotify, etc.
Dont know what to do, i have restarted my phone, i had a full wipe. sad, cant do anything almost.
Any tips?
Just to be sure, Timsung, did you apply the 9195 root on the 9190?

I applied the root of this thread exactly and didn't see any troubles. [RECOVERY][ROOT] Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini (GT-I9195)
my phone works perfectly and rooted and has recovery.
I think you need to flash stock firmware and apply the root again from the above thread of i9195
by the way .. after the root if you download the su application from the play store it will not work. you need to flash it through recovery.
I checked recently the recovery/boot files of both models I9190 and I9195.
The partitions is exactly the same, and the addres of them too. (mmcblkxx)
it's also the same harware except the nfc and the lte, so there is nothing to fear.
Hello,
I intend to purchase a S4 Mini and turn it "Google Edition", but I have some questions regarding it.
What implications does it have? I assume the touchwiz specific functions will not work, but will the phone/android specific functions work? GPS, navigation, google maps, etc?
Can the functionality of the camera and music player be improved with apps (like more camera options that touchwiz has, but not a Google edition)? I'd like to use the active notification app, will I be able to?
Since Android is free, will I get the latest automated updates as soon as it hits the Nexus?
Here is the rooting tutorial, does it tell all that is to know?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2364980
This tutorial has a video, but is for the i9505, can it still be used as a guideline?
http://www.technobuffalo.com/videos/how-to-turn-a-galaxy-s4-into-a-google-edition-phone/
There isn't a Google edition rom for the S4 Mini. You should just flash CyanogenMod 10.1 on it if you want something like that. All the functions you mentioned are working on CM10.1.
The camera in Google stock roms (upon which CM is based) has less features than the Samsung stock camera.
The activenotification app works fine on CM. TouchWiz is the interface used in Samsung stock roms and does not exist on these custom roms based on the Google stock roms.
Thanks. What I mean to say is that I want to install stock Google android (4.3) on the phone and get rid of touchwiz. I need to get more information about CyanogenMod to decide,
I'm sure it has neat features, but all I need really is a phone the size of the S4 mini and to run stock android on it (hence my decision to go with it, otherwise I could buy one of the google edition phones right away). I just wondered if it still has stuff like navigation and if the camera would work normally and such. Also whether I would get the automatic updates of android or am stuck with the version I installed.
Are you planning to get the LTE version? CyanogenMod 10.1 is currently only available on the LTE model.
You should read about what CyanogenMod is about @ http://www.cyanogenmod.org/about
I feel that it suits your needs
The one I'm getting is LTE.
So with the CyanogenMod I can still have that pure stock Google android look, but can change themes and stuff? Having choices and options is great but I want that pure and simple 100% stock android look.
I wonder how stable it is and how do I update that? Do I need to flash it each time? Stock android gets automatic updates, but if I use CM, than I don't want to fiddle around with installing updates again risking data and the phone.
I see 10.2 (4.3) is out.
Custom roms need to be tailored for each phone. There is only 10.1 available for the GT-I9195 for now. Support for 10.2 will come later when 10.1 is more stable.
There are automatic update notifications for updates to CyanogenMod. The latest builds commonly are based on the latest version of that Android release available on open source.
Incremental CyanogenMod updates don't wipe your data.
I put CM10.1 on it. I love the stock google look, so much more pleasant. The set of options is great.
Thanks to arco68 for the rooting tutorial and you for the rom installation.
I didn't backup the previous rom though, is there a way to reset it if necessary?
Is there a way to use the "System/Notification drawer/Widget buttons" on the "Lock screen/Slider shortcuts"?
I'd like to use the "Go to sleep" function by sliding the lock screen to the left to shut off the screen as opposed to sliding it left to unlock.
I tried some lock screen apps. Two work excellent, just as I want, but the one wakes screen up right after shutting it and the other stays open as app in the background. A third works but not so great.

it shows this!!!!what can i do????
I'm using SM-G900F version of sgs5 with Android Marshmallow (G900FXXU1CPEM_G900FXEO1CPE2_G900FXXU1CPC9_HOME) and I have a problem with integrating updates of system apps with rom.
I was using Titanium Backup since Froyo, but now when I begin integration process it look like it is everything ok, but after reboot every updated and integrated app disappears (they was removed from Rom after reboot).
Link2SD also removes apps.
When I try to manually move apps from /data/app to /system/app i get a bootloop.
Soo, Is there is any different way to integrate app to marshmallow rom?
Hello!!
My phone is an S7 Edge with Android 7.0. I am trying to manually install updates from apps included in the stock, like the calendar, messages ... etc. However I can not do it because it gives me this error: " App not installed. The package conflicts cith an existing package by te same name".
Please, can someone help me with this?
Uninstall the app and install the newest. If you have still the problem try install over ADB. Then you can see package name with conflict and uninstall it.
Hi,
You're trying to install two apps with the same package name, in Android data system the apps you install have its data saved in a folder with the format /data/*package name*/, therefore if two apps use the exact same package name and have different signatures (that is, one is not the update of another) you won't be able to install it.
As suggested, try to uninstall the stock apps and then install again manually. However I do not think you'll be able to do it, due to the nature of stock apps being installed in system partition. So for manually installing an stock app you'll first need to uninstall it, and that usually requires superuser privileges.
All the best,

That is the answer I have searched for days. You know APKMIRROR right? I am on unrooted SM-G935F (s7 edge) and I was not able to install any system apps before. But in apkmirror, some people uploaded newer versions of system apps and there was one visible difference: older versions which I cannot install was with android head icon, but newer version had it's own app icon next to the name, and that installed for me. For example s8 launcher (touchwiz home). I always got package error when tried to download versions with android head, and when someone uploaded version with its own icon, it installed. Can you explain this?
And now im waiting for new versions of s8 weather widget because there is no version available with the app icons....
All you need to to to install Touchwiz 9.0 is to encript device, and afterward install will go smoothly (All other experience 9.0 apps can be installed too).(Samsung S6, Android 7.0, December security patch).
I'm running Lineage 17.1 Nightly without GAAPs. And the AOSP camera is terrible. Every photo comes out blurry.
I tried installing Gcam V.2.2.1 from Arnova8G2 and OOS camera apks from mirror apk but nothing works. After install I get the same problem, "Camera Keeps Stopping".
Does anyone know of a work around for this. I can't get any camera apk working, (other than the stock pre-installed AOSP camera)
You can't just use the OOS Camera. You need a bunch of other libraries and such to make the OOS camera work.
Once I find a GCam that everything works on I tend to just stick with it. On 17.1 I'm using, 7.2_GCam_Urnyx05-v2.1.apk.
Look here, download GCam from here. (I would start by trying 2.1 since it works for me.)
Other versions are here if you want to try them.
Next to the 2.1 download click the configs link, scroll down to OnePlus 6/6T. These are XML files, I would download the first one natural / noiseless. You can try others later if you want. In internal storage of your device create a folder called GCam, inside that folder create one called Configs7. Place that XML that you just downloaded (oneplus6t-more-naturally-and-noiselessly-v2.xml) inside Configs7.
Now when you open the camera double tap the black area near the button that takes a picture, and select that XML.

Thank you so much! I did followed everything you said, but I still have the same problem. The app force closes before I get the chance to add the config. I tried enabling all of the permissions from "app info" along with allowing it to "modify system settings". But it still force closes

Just out of curiosity, Does installing WebView fix it? ? (You can uninstall it if it doesn't).
Im trying to think of what might be different since this works for me. Some apps require webview and will crash immediately if you dont have it. The LOS browser should work for this, but I've found for many apps it doesn't. There is a a library that is required for WebView on some ROMs (like Omni), but Ive never needed it on LOS.

Sorry for the late reply. I installed webview, but that didn't change anything.
It's also worth noting that after flashing Lineage, I lost my TWRP recovery. I then flashed Magisk through Lineage's supplied recovery.
I wish there was a simple solution for this. I came from OmniRom and Omni had the stock OOS camera and it was great! But without GAAPS installed, Omni is way too glitchy for my liking. That's the only reason why I'm using Lineage, to avoid random app force closures....guess I didn't avoid it entirely with the camera issue

Wait.... Several things in there. So did you use the MicroG version of Omni then? As Omni can use Gapps if you use the regular build of Omni? Next did you just flash LOS straight over Omni? This maybe giving you issues. Also that GCam folder must be in place otherwise it won't work, you did that step right? As for recovery, yes, you have to flash TWRP after LOS to keep TWRP.
I have a Lineage Install Guide here. The second post has the cliff notes version if you want. However the long version does have some extra stuff in it, like passing safety net and such.

Yes, I tried the micro-g version on Omni...twice. I haven't tested the standard version yet. When I flashed Omni, however, I didn't flash it over OOS. It was a clean flash.
I did not flash Lineage over anything either.
Yes I have that GCam folder in my internal storage, as instructed.
Appreciate the info, I'll check out your install guide!
Edit: Worth mentioning that when I used Omni. Both times, there was a broken google search bar at the top of the app home screen page. Couldn't get rid of widget, use it, nor move it. It was stuck in place, and no longer said "Google". It was an entirely blank search bar.
