S-Health broken (solved)

If S-Health is totally broken and you can't launch it because the app is crashing every time.
Here is what you can do :
go to: Application manager > all
Uninstall S-Health & HealthService updates and clear data.
You will have them back to factory default.
Update them again with your Samsung account.
If your using Galaxy Gear Fit manager... maybe you should uninstall it too
You should now be able to run S-Health
I have this problem. But after update to new version and restart phone shealth crash ;-( work only old version.

Please already tried looking in various places and couldn't find anything to help me.
Got the Galaxy S5, before I wore only the S3, my problem with the S5 is that I can't update the S-Health, when I do a message pops up saying you must also update the Health Service, when I do this the S-Health crashes.
Just after returning all factory settings S-Health back to work without the update.
Use the Gear Fit and when using S3 with Fitness with Gear there was this problem, could show the data in the pedometer, exercise and heartbeats without problems.
Can someone help me? SM-G900M stok version 4.4.2

How to remove S health app?

Hi, does anyknow now how to remove S Health app?
I did yesterday update on 7.0 then i did root and S Health app is not working because knox is tripped. I found that using older version and then update to new one should be working. But i cannot install older version because S health still remains in system.
Tried to remove both app and service by System app remover and Link2SD app to remove S health but it keeps restoring it self.
Can anyone help me with this? I have Gear S3 frontier now that is a half useless without S Healht. Funny fact that on my rooted LG G5 is S health working so anti root protection is only for Samsung devices...what a premium feature :cyclops:
if u use custom 7.0 rom it will work just fine but thats up to u.

You can try package disabler pro. If that don't work then you SOL unless you root.

Yes I tried it but I don't know which app or script has to be disabled.
Update: Using Package Disabler Pro freezes various apps then the next 48 hours I dont recieve any notifications to software updates. In reality, I still dont know which one of the apps prevents the update. The freeze apps are:
AT&T Remote Support
Backup and Restore Manager
ConfigUpdater
DiagMonAgent
Nearby Service
In addition to others such as Direct TV and bloatwares from AT&T that have nothing to do with the software update.

Hmm I've been wanting to know this too. Are you rooted?
Yes, my phone is rooted.
you can delete the update apk in /system/priv-app/FotaAgent and reboot or use root essentials app on play store (use it all the time) you can do anything and especially app management with delete, freeze , etc etc of course for rooted
I have renamed the FotaAgent.apk. Hopefully this should be enough to prevent it from auto updating.

A working app disabler

Good morning everyone. I need a working app disabler, since ez, pdp and bk are not anymore on the play store.
You can search apk mirror for apps you want. Are you rooted or not? There is an app called root package disabler that has a non root option. If you are rooted, titanium backup is always reliable.

Thanks for the answer. I will try root package disabler then, to be honest I prefer to stay on a non rooted firmware. I will update the thread.
