Hi!
I have Galaxy Tab A 10.5 (2018), want to try out some apps / games before I buy them, will installing a pirated APK from outside Play Store trigger Knox? I know the cracked apps sometimes contain malware, etc, so I risk my data, but can they damage Knox protection making it invalid and trigger warranty bit? After some googling I found that Knox triggers when it detects modified system, kernel, or root attempt, but there is nothing about apps installed on the device.
My other question is related to Samsung Game Optimizing Service. I have noticed that the games are blurrier than web browsers or normal user interface, found out it's caused by GOS. I downloaded the Samsung Game Tuner app's APK and installed it directly, because it's not available in Play Store or Galaxy Apps. It's working normally, after starting it up I found out that every game's resolution is set to 75% by default. Changing them to 100% solves the problem, but that's not really a "clean" solution. Is there any way to set the default resolution value without Game Tuner? Tried to delete GOS's data, restart the device, didn't help, the games running in 75% resolution by default. Here is an example screenshot of a system info app which is detected as a game, the tablet's screen resolution is 1920x1200, but it's running lower than that:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I don't want to root the device or install custom ROM as it's just a week old, and it would be bad to void the warranty.
Thanks a lot for help!
You can disable that GOS to make games run as apps, using app like 'Package Disabler Pro ( Owner APP) All Android' in Google Play store.
You might need to buy it.
(You might disable Game Launcher/Game Tools too because they are GOS dependants.)
After disabling them, reboot the device. And check the game's running resolution.
- But this way you cannot use Game Tools' recording feature and GOS' game performance optimization.
This is applicable to almost every Samsung Android Galaxy devices.

Hello guys,
i have a problem. I tried to install Guns'n'Glory WW2 but i cant, cause i get the error message that the item is not compatible with my device.
As you see on my screenshot, i have to xooms, a verizon one (last in list) and a o2 one (first in list). Its not compatible with the o2 one but on the verzzon one.
I preordered the verizon cause in my country it was not available on this time. I dont own it anymore.
I use the Hammerhead ROM, does someone have the same problem? Maybe how to fix it?

I have the problem with a lot of apps, one of them is this one
https://market.android.com/details?...&rdid=com.samsungmobile.unpacked&rdot=1&pli=1
How can i fix it? Please anyone?
have the same problem with some apps. I´m using Timat 2.2 Moray on my German Xoom. A Fix for this problem would be wonderful.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it probably an app-related issue.
App-developers need to set API-level, screen-size and density in the manifest file of their application.
I do receive this error on both my DHD and my Xoom for various apps but didn't found a real fix so far. On approach could be adapting your build.prop to meet the app-requirement but you need to know what to change first. That wouldn't work for wrong API-level ofc.
Rgds,
azel
fix
this issue is a problem..
its not app related as it occurs with lots of apps installed on my xoom when i try to update them.
appbrain is useful to get round the updating issue but i dont know how to fix it for apps that havent been installed yet.
it even happens on apps designed for honeycomb.
i think its related to the build.prop somehow not displaying a valid .dpi signature and thus the market isnt sure what device your using.
may be that anyway.
They can also restrict an app by the locale of the device; since your current Xoom is a .DE model, it's probably been locked out of that market (or, more exactly, the game is allowed only for .US locales).
Ok guys, I have had this issue, and fixed the issue, I an on a wifi only, when I use certain kerrnels, and my device sites on the Andros market Web site, not the app, I get this app not compat, its when the devise shows as a version xoom, which I don't have it is s wifi only. I know what the launchpad kernel cause my problem. Changing to a different kernel fixed my problem, all apps now show as compat.

Few problems that have been occuring so far
1. Cannot add games onto GFE properly. If I add a PC game or even an emulator, it replaces Steam.
This is what it normally looks like with no games added onto GFE

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This is what it looks like if I add a game onto GFE.
2. When I launch steam through streaming , I keep coming across this stupid message. I only have one steam account, and only using one computer. Yet when I launch steam, it comes up with this message every time.
When I close or minimize it and try to launch a game through Steam, It doesn't work. It doesnt launch my game at all. i either have to reboot my tablet or pc to get it working, and even then the dumb message still appears eventually
Notes:- I've uninstalled and reinstalled Geforece Experience multiple times. Rolled back to different versions. Uninstalled+reinstalled drivers. Rolled back to previous GFE and drivers
Restarted my laptop multiple times.
None of those seemed to work at all.
For #2: Even had to uninstall steam, and it works for a good while. But then the SAME ISSUE persists shortly after.
On another note. I did a complete reinstall on my laptop. Decided to add a game as via GFE and...
And it STILL replaced Steam. Now this is dumb. Despite factory installs. Despite a complete reinstall of my laptop. Despite going back to more stable geforce. despite uninstalling and reinstalling steam. despite upgrading to lolipop
I STILL GET DUMB ISSUES LIKE THIS.
http://i.imgur.com/wGGqGo7.jpg?
This is my biggest problem out of all of them. And it doesn't make sense? I used to be able to add games via GFE. Now I can't no longer I just don't get it?
any ideas or suggestions? Posted this on the Geforce forums, and no help there either
Hi there folks!
At bottom you see my desktop from dex, i have fullHD samsung TV to work with dex, i wish to have better screen resolution but you know, money, money, money.... In nearest future i will buy desktop monitor and attach all cables and stuff to it. But later, ofcorse, i will share my setup.
I have few apps as you see, i use samsung internet browser for facebook due to it`s desktop mode that is best for dex, chrome`s facebook experience is not good, and samsung`s version is just like normal pc feel like facebook. So i have shortcut there. And for writing - for now i have open office port but this makes me angry due to spell checking, I`m writing native in Polish but i want to write also in english without mistakes and that open office port is just more problems that benefits. Also i have camera roll gallery app but also - to change because of lacking 360 photos view, any ideas?I had quicpic but i read that newest version is somehow buggy and this pink fonts... nope.
Rest of apps is just normal, and i cant find any other usefull apps to use with dex for now, i`ve try to connect my two hard drives to dex but it`s just not working like i want it to. What is funny - i have tv android box and this peace of cheap dung works normally with both hard drives... I`ve try different ntfs mounter sollutions but everytime - failure.
For now i feel like DEX is not developing anyhow, no updates, no new functions... i hope that this is no project like bada os project, i hope that this would be developed in future.
So, what is your ideas, apps, tricks and tips for DEX? How your DEX screen looks like?

Hello, recently just updated my v20 to oreo and it got game optimizer which I've been eagerly waiting for. Unfortunately it won't detect my game as it should've as it is an unofficial app name (i used apk editor and change the package name in order to have 2 id on 1 device)
Is there any way to add this onto the list manually? My phone is currently not rooted, but if root can solve this issue, I will happily go through with it since my warranty is already expired.
if anyone know how to get it detected through editing manifest file is also appreciated, thanks in advance

Thats just a gimmick, its a useless feature, i have a couple of games on it and i can change graphics, take a screenshot and the break time which is the only thing useful
You can use SQLite Editor to add custom apps into com.lge.gametuner.

It is not a gimmick and can be useful for some games that renders the game at native screen resolution which the graphics settings can forcefully set to 720p or 1080p.

That's the reason I need that feature lol
My game always render app at my native resolution and it lags after 10 minutes or so gameplay due to the heat it generates
Some of my games are smoother ever since I set them to 720p, that's why I need it to be able to add other application as well, especially some games/apps that I sideload since all of them are not detected

Yes, root is needed to modify the sqlite db.
Hi All, first post, so don't know if it's in the right place.
I have just brought a 2021 H96 Max 4K Android box and i have a problem with opening the Google Play Store and YouTube.
It's all set up and Wi-Fi connected and signed in to my Google account, but when i try to open it i get a white screen then goes off back to the app.
YouTube comes up then just goes off back to the app again.
Thanks
The problem is with not enough ram memory.

Were you able to resolve this issue?
This was caused by Chinese keyboard app. You can disable the notifications, restrict display over other app permission via app settings to avoid this.
Better install Android 10 or 11 firmware.
