Galaxy S9 Pie apps on S8 - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hi,
I recently switched back to the Renovate-ICE ROM from an S9 Pie port. I was wondering whether someone knows where I can get the system apps from the Pie build for the S9. Some are available on APKmirror but only a few.
Also, does anyone know what the name of the font is on the S9 Pie build? It looks similar to GoogleSans or OpenSans but it doesn't look quite the same.
Thanks.

S7 Edge Panel Apps on S7

Does anyone know if we can get the STOCK edge panel apps and notifications on S7? My last phone was note 3 on vzw and there was a ROM that had the edge apps that I found to be extremely useful. If anyone knows how to get them on S7 can you help me out please? Thanks to anyone with input ahead of time!

try sideloading related apks
Does anyone know what apks are required? No other modifications are necessary?
There is an app called The peoples edge on google play its exactly like the edge panel its like 1.99 on play store but totally worth it, it works well and its regularly updated, plus you can try before you buy and its inexpensive. No root Required.

Emojis aren't showing

Hello!
For quite some time now I can't find my emojis on my device. Emojis aren't showing on the keyboard and I can't find them in settings ( maybe they are just turned off or something...). I'm using default samsung keyboard and I won't change to any other keyboard from like google store or something. I already tried to delete CM security but it didn't solve the problem. I am using Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge with currently still 6.0.1 android. I would really appreciate your help.
Thanks! :laugh:

Gear S3 compatibility

Just picked up an Essential yesterday. Someone on Reddit claimed that most recent OTA fixed Gear S3 compatibility. This is only partially true. Here's what I've found:
Working:
-installing apps
-installing 3rd party watch faces
-updating watch firmware
-connect via Bluetooth
Workarounds:
-Samsung pay - install this: https://www.apkmirror.com/?post_type=app_release&searchtype=apk&s=Samsung+pay+gear
-No notifications - install this: https://www.apkmirror.com/?post_type=app_release&searchtype=apk&s=Gear+plugin
Everything works now, enjoy guys
have you received every update? Including the latest build and the essential apps from the play store??
I have the Fit2, notifications always worked for me, but installed apps and watchfaces started working last week
That's odd, I receive notifications on my S3 just fine. Samsung Pay still crashes for me as well.
Yeah, from what I've read Samsung Pay is the only thing not working still.
Sounding better. I saw somewhere the S3 was not working so I have not even tried mine yet. Using my Fossil Q Marshall at the moment. I really miss the screen on the S3.
I'll try factory resetting my gear S3 to see if I can get notifications working. Tried playing with settings, but couldn't get it working. Will report back later tonight.
Notifications definitely do not work on the gear S3. Factory reset the gear S3 and still no notifications at all. Have fingerprint gestures, so definitely on latest update.
Update: got it working! Downloaded the latest Gear Services apk from apkmirror and everything works! I installed Samsung pay apk from apkmirror and that works too! Everything works, woo!
The links don't work for me did anything change?
You can search and they show up on apkmirror. Also for the brave you can get text messaging to work with any text app on your phone on the S3. It takes a bit of work but I did it this morning and it works. You have to install Tizen studio and an apk on your phone. The apk for the phone is in the thread so you do not have to build it with android studio though. I used a guide in the thread for the pixel to get it to work for me.

Thanks for this! Samsung pay works great now. Haven't tested it on a purchase, but was able to install, add my cards, access it on my S3, and initiate the payment process!
is there a way to get Samsung Messaging and Notes?
S3 Gear Currently Incompatible With Android 9.0
Samsung is working on a solution, but the S3 Gear currently lacks the ability to connect to any device running Android 9.0. In the meantime, I simply connected my S3 Gear to my old S7 Edge phone & set up all the stand alone features before officially retiring the phone. Until Samsung fixes the problem, I'm able to use Samsung Pay, make calls/sms (assuming you have separate line setup), and use basic watch functionality without any problems.
Samsung, hurry up and fix Android 9 break!
I'm having trouble connecting Gear Fit 2 Pro on Android Pie. I tried Gear Wearable & Fit2 Pro plugin but still not working. Any help?
I don't use my watch for "a lot". Mostly notifications. I've never used S-voice, although it does work and I have used it to talk on the phone once. Haven't used Samsung pay but it is set up. Guess I'll have to try it.
Anyone else not able to get Samsung health to recognize the watch and capture it's steps?
here works all fine on stock pie rom also on cm pie ROMs I had np with gear sport etc

Thanks for this.. btw the old Pay link is not working.. Now the app is called "Samsung Pay (Watch Plugin)" https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsung-electronics-co-ltd/samsung-pay-watch-plug-in/
---------- Post added at 03:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:40 PM ----------
After installing Pay plugin, I was able to add the cards, but once I closed the app, I could not find the app anywhere? Can someone please help me how to get this app show up inside Samsung wearable? I am using PH1 with latest Pie release. Samsung customer care basically said "Your phone is not officially supported for Pay".

Samsung mail with 6t?

Hi guys.
I had Samsung phones in the past and switched to One plus 6t although I miss Samsung mail. I've been trying to download a compatible version but I can't find any version that works with the 6t. I have the TM non rooted version of the 6t. Does anyone here knows if there is a compatible Samsung mail version that will work with my phone?
Thanks
Mario
Hi, Samsung apps uses a highly modified framework. As you can see in the photo the app stop because doesn't found a method in it. It would be possible to use this app but it would require a lot of work.
