Anyone know what the latest update did?
Man.... Samsung doesn't even know what it did
No update since over a week ago
This is about all the futher the other discussion on the update made it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/exactly-change-update-t2812151
The most recent update added the "Screen Saver" app. It's used in place of a retail mode in stores.
Probably tried to screw everybody so they can't root.
I'm still holding out for the 32Gb 8.4 though.

I'm new to the HTC One section -- visiting to check on an issue for my son who just got his One a month ago. Apologies if this has already been discussed in another thread -- I searched and didn't see anything about this.
My son noticed that there's now a persistent notification (on the notification shade, of course) that indicates that Device Manager is running. I've never seen this on my other devices with Android Device Manager running -- not on my LG G2, Galaxy Nexus, Moto X's (wife and daughter), Nexus 7's or Nexus 10. Just on the HTC One, and just in the last day or so (probably right after a recent update).
The notification can't be swiped away, and I don't see any options in the app itself to turn notifications on/off. We'd really like to be able to turn this off if possible.
Any ideas / suggestions most appreciated.

I had this issue when I manually updated to the latest 4.3 OTA .. If thats what happened here then this worked for me:
Go to settings
Software Update
Check new
It should ask to install update, say "Install Now"
That should fail, because you are already on the latest OTA

Thanks! Worked perfectly. :good:
Mates,
I don't know if the Kevo/Kwikset app folks are dumb, lazy or if there is some fee they have to pay to support new phones, but hear my tale of woe, with a happy ending (a minstrel on a mandolin is playing in the background as you read this).
I put Kevo locks everywhere when they first came out with android support. When they work, it is one less key I have to carry, one more thing my everpresent phone can do. They were announced as partners for the Gear S2 which, as we all know, is bull. The tech writers who said it worked were clearly Samsung lapdogs.
The Kevo website says that the app won't work on the Galaxy S7 edge but it did. Right from the start, right out of the gate. Then T-Mobile rolled out a patch last week and it stopped. Nothing. Bupkus. Google Play says the app is not supported by my device.
A little bit of searching led to the actual newest Kevo apk. I downloaded it, deleted the old app, installed it and voila! Back in business. The new version supports remote open and close, which I haven't checked yet- I bought an upgraded lock but it isn't installed.
So, there you have it. I have no idea why Kevo/Kwikset/Unikey didn't test with the newest phones, why they don't know it works or whatever. Their developers are much more interested in supporting iOS and the sheeple that use it, but it will work for us too!
where did you find the latest? i looked for almost 2 hours and the best i could come up with was the 0.99 beta in the google groups. had to sideload an app that lets you change your device to trick Play into letting you install it.
Googled Android kevo apk, found version 1.2.57.2p everywhere. I presumed that was the latest since it has the remote buttons on it.
yeah i saw those results as well, but none of the apk downloaders worked for me. several even said their 'device' was incompatible, which was the same problem i was having.
I'm in the same boat. I have an S7 Edge and while kevo still works with just the proximity and tap lock to open...I've never been able to get the tap to unlock/lock work. Even on my moto360 (gen1) kevo force closes non stop. Another problem I had was my old S5 was on Lollipop and it worked, but then Tmo rolled out the update to MM and now it doesn't even see the lock. I've had multiple emails to Kevo and the only thing I get is that "We're sorry, we have no plans to support MM".
If you got anything to help out with Kevo working on Marshmallow, then I'd appreciate it as well!
I might be a little late on the the subject but I had the Kevo app since the beginning from my Note 4 on KK all the way up to My Note 5 on MM. I rarely use my Moto 360 (1) to open the door but this time I did and the watch went haywire and kept showing a notification indicating that the app is no longer working. So I decided to uninstall the Kevo app and then proceeded to sync the watch and phone, stopping the annoying notification. When I went to the app store to reinstall I found the "phone not compatible"..
Well, decided to sideload to have the Kevo app to look and work the same way I had it before.. after several attempts I figured it out. 1st sideload the Kevo 0.9.58p apk, sign in, then sideload the updated version 1.2.57.2p and it will finally look and feel like the updated one on Lollipop. Sefar is right, why the devs were so lazy in checking for compatibility is beyond me but it works.!!

I have been using Samsung Pay with with my Gear S3 for months and really became spoiled.
This week, a few days ago Samsung pay told me I had to run an update on my phone. After allowing unknown sources in Andr 7.1.2, it downloads, then comes to a Samsung screen with "Cancel" "Install" both look enabled.
When you press Install, nothing :crying:, hour or so later, trying diff things, nothing. For now I can no longer use Samsung Pay. Oh yea the "Cancel" link/button works just fine!
Really bummed!
=====
I am guessing it maybe the new "External Sources" feature ... ug.. it does not display or think that Samsung pay is an external source!
Just a guess, but explains why the "Install" link/button looks enabled... but does not work...
Are you rooted? Because the new Samsung Pay update doesn't allow root on your phone. I get the same kind of thing you are describing. Trying to find a workaround, but no luck yet.

Thx for the reply.
No, it took several attempts of uninstalling of "Samsung Pay" S-PAY , rebooting and finally I was able to get S-PAY to install from scratch. Of course I lost my Credit Cards that were validated, but that is a minor problem.
Not sure what was going on, never got any type of "External Sources" warning, etc... For what ever reason this update from Samsung did not go in easy on my Pixel XL...
Rooted Phones

You may have seen this http://www.theandroidsoul.com/android-pay-with-root/..
If not hope it helps. Basically I read somewhere else, you have to hide root when using Pay, then unhide... Ect... Sounds like a pain..
A few days ago Xfinity Mobile (or Samsung? I'm unsure) started pushing OTA update G965USQU7DTA5 (One UI 2 upgrade with Android 10).
I successfully updated mine SGS-9 but got stuck on wife's SGS-9 Probably, first attempt of download on this phone was interrupted (my wife went to store, and download was paused 'cause of no WiFi). But after that it's always stopped on 25% and saying "Couldn't download update: Unable to update the software. A network or server error occurred. Try later again". It's a bug in buggy Samsung software updater, I'm 100% positive, but how to fix that stuff without resetting the phone?
Phone is NOT rooted or unlocked; I googled for "offline update" instructions for stock, locked phones but can't find good, clear instructions.
Any suggestions, guys?
P.S. I've never done phone reset on SGS-9, how it works? Is it quick and safe enough? My wife's phone don't have sideloaded and/or pirated apps, everything by original, Google- & Samsung way.
Update: I resolved my issue by updating phone from PC, using Samsung's "Smart Switch" application - everything went smooth and easy.
P.S. Big thanks to this guide: https://thedroidguy.com/how-to-fix-...not-update-to-latest-software-version-1097987
Update 2: My question received no answers, even no attention but I still believe in people (generally)
So, after update to Android 10 on SGS9, my wife found what the new camera app is kinda downgrade: she doesn't likes new video mode full screen chooser (instead of "scroller") and some other small things. By the way, I clearly understood her: for example, on her SGS9 (updated via PC) video has, by default, bigger zoom than mine SGS9! It's kinda ridiculous but I understand, some parts of the software was written by Korean guys
My question is: could you provide some tips how to install stock camera app from the previous firmware (Android 9), without flashing back old firmware (I suspect what Sam-damn-sung and X****&nity will not support Android 9 anymore)?
Thank you!
P.S. I know how the google search works; I know even more - how xda-dev search works too but I can't find exact answer to my question, sorry!

I think it's more no one has xfinity. I was one of the few and first to have xfinity when I got my s8. xfinity is a weird setup compared to most phones. I had to ditch em when they charged me like 3 or 4 times in one month, it took me almost 4 months to get a refund.
With root you might be able to get the old camera working possibly. Or gcam I'm no developer so I wouldnt know the exacts. And I still run my xfinity s8 ???
I have noticed that since I upgraded to A13, the Play systemupdate is totally void.
When I press it in settings, nothing happens. On A12 it showed at least a screen 'Checking for update ...'.
Now nothing happens ...
Anybody has the same behavior?
(it shows as being on July 2022 now for me)
Hmmm ... just found this article on 9to5Google talking about this ...
[U: Fix] Google Play system updates on Pixel and Samsung lose 'Check for update' button
With the latest Google Play system update for August 2022 detailed this week, Android owners are seeking out the "Check for update" button...
9to5google.com
I believe that this was thoroughly discussed here in a different thread yesterday or the day before. Your thread title, however, is better suited for this question =).
Here is the linked thread:
A13, another "Am I the only one?" Thread!
Ok all, I'm getting quite frustrated with my P6P. Was on A12 and sideloaded the OTA for 13 Beta 4.1. I didn't want to lose any data but also didn't want to enroll in the beta program which would have pushed the OTA anyway. Beta was working...

*Edit* - use the search function, my kind sir.
Google Play Store v31.9.20-21 is rolling out and will fix that Play System Updates "bug"
31.9.20 broke the update for me (that worked flawlessly before), Play Store 32 fixed it.
I'm still on Play Store 31.9.13-21, and the Play System Update "button" is dead, so mine's broken even before receiving 31.9.20.

Thanks. I'll wait until/if I get it through the normal course of events.
Updated to play store 32.0.20-21 and now the button is working for me.
