Anyone see an update from the Samsung App store auto install called SE Android Policy Update? It installed on mine per the notification but can't find anything about it in the store. Thx

Always go into playstore and uncheck the auto update feature. I always want to see what is being updated and only way to do that.
Sounds like an update to the SELinux policies on the phone.
SELinux runs of a set of policies that enforce security on the phone. You more than likely won't find any information about this in the stores.
I'm curious to know if that was to patch the hole causing your phone to be hacked through Samsung's "Find my Phone" Feature.

I have the Mod Collection For Ouya loaded with the Disable automatic updates enabled. I have tried to uncheck the updates checkbox under the accounts. Even with these changes, every I go to the main menu, the automatic update launches.
Is there any other way to disable the updates?

OUYA decides with each update to add or take away a feature that once existed. OuyaMod5.1 lost its ability before snowman and no one has heard from them since but soon i know of a dev whos been working insanely on his own rom for ouya giving you unlock feature options that keep forced pushed updates from occuring as well as pulling from new updates for featue rom updates. just imagine cyanogenmod created their own custom OUYA launcher mod with xbmc was its skin with... IVE SAID TO MUCH and expect this mid March 2014 #OUYAFREE
Awesome.
Good to know.

Anyone know why we ATT Note 4 users are apparently missing the Samsung Knox app that is supposed to be pre-installed on these devices? Even the "My Knox" app from the play store, which is only supposed to be compatible with S5 and Note4, says it is not compatible with this device.
Knox is listed in the application manager, but not the app drawer. I seemed to recall that ATT did the same thing on our Note 3. Why is ATT blocking us from this application?
Try installing it with APTOiDE

The question is why do you want this application? As far as I know which is not much as far as knox is concerned but I do know this is how they attempt to detect things like rooting and the sort... Is there things that will not run without knox because mine is disabled and its fine.

Ok from doing minimal research it is for security (so they say) and from what I read this a paid service for some carriers have you called your carrier and asked them if your phone is stock and under warrranty and this is an app that should have been activated with the device then it would be a warranty issue I would imagine . So I would call them first and see what they say. If there no help come on back here. There is a few ways to install apps. (app store, apk file, side load) .
Knox is a application/service which enables users to run a containerized virtual environment with the purpose of maintaining data security for enterprises. It allows users to store data for both personal and business purposes on a single device by keeping the enterprise-side completely isolated. This allows employers to manage and maintain the security of their data.
The Knox counter is just a small piece of the system that is used to maintain the integrity of the service as a whole. The intent of the counter is to ensure that the device, and thus the Knox environment, has not been compromised. Samsung is more concerned about a multi-million dollar breach of their technology than they are about 16yo kids rooting their phones for the "cool factor". The fact that it happens to be a reliable way for them to tell when one of these kids bricked their phone and is trying to get a free replacement is just a side benefit.
Ok just an update I have not deleted any of the knox but only froze on application. Did you find a way to put it on your device...if not im sure it could be ported from a note 3 from another carrier..or simply download the apk.
Note 3 stock rom rooted.
It's been on there the entire time....

I had downloaded the galaxy app store from the web and it worked fine. Since the lollipop update the galaxy app store had disappeared and when I tried to install the app it would say unable to install, any one else have this issue? Or a fix to get the galaxy app store?
So odd. Same issue. Not sure how to update my galaxy apps like snote and shealth
I may be wrong but I think we're being required to just wait for them to notify us about updates. There's a way to check for an update in S-Health settings but that's the only one I found.
You can access the Samsung Galaxy Apps Store via the widget Galaxy Essentials.
Search for SNote and SHealth/SHealth services and update.
Make sure you're using the TouchWiz launcher so you can access the Samsung widgets. S-Health can be updated within the app itself.
Look for the “check for updates" option in the settings menu.

Go to the APPS folder and hit the three dots (menu) in the upper right corner, you will find Galaxy Essentials there.
After doing more research I called a Samsung number for galaxy apps and found that this is a Verizon issue (aka Verizon blocked the full app store) but it seems to be resolved. They gave me a link to follow which worked to redownload and install successfully this time. The link is posted below for anyone who needs it:

A little bonus update For those Verizon Galaxy S7 users who are unaware http://www.smartphonesupdates.com/latest-verizon-update-galaxy-s7-galaxy-s7-edge/ not mentioned in the change log.
please share your thoughts about this service.
Ah, so that's what that is. DISABLED
Thanks for letting us know, I just checked and disabled it.
Something like this should be illegal. Disabled.

Thanks for this! I disabled it. I want my phone running as lean and mean as possible.
If you own the phone outright, paid in full, they should disclose what they are doing to it. I cleared and froze right after upgrading.
You all are welcome, i always try to share helpful info for my friends.
Thanks !

This was also present on S6 and forward. Not new, but this should never have been added in the first place. I don't want random games on my phone.
I tried to disable but asked "Would you like to replace app with factory version?" Is another app that does the same thing going to replace it? I can't disable DT ignite if I don't click yes

Its because DT ignite has updates installed. Click yes and it will put the "factory" non-updated version back on the phone. Then it will allow u to disable as normal.
Thanks so much for the find.
For those that may not have found it yet I have just started using Package Disabler Pro which let's you disable all of the verison and other bloatware without root...

DT ignite is a cancer waiting to spread. Forcing apps to install onto the device that has almost half its storage already taken by bloat. Haven't seen any apps besides the beam software install without my permission, had to install Nextradio manually ( which has annoying ads ). DT Ignite could one day install an app that can compromise your phones security due to programming flaws. All quickrooter exploits have been patched, however if it feels like a Trojan it is a Trojan
Just updated my VZ Galaxy S6 edge plus 64gb and this Cancerous AIDS is in that update as well. Before my eyes I had apps appearing like magic installing themselves one by one.
This is worse than most phones that have crap in their root preinstall folder that show up after every restart
Haven't had anything wacky installed, it's even installing an updated Instagram not from the Google play store
After the update this morning my device is official in settings but in play store it's uncertified and Google play thinks I'm rooted....
Sort of the same issue. I downloaded Safetynet check and it says CTS Profile mismatch. Now I can't use Android Pay to charge my car.

Also showing a mismatch so they screwed something up.
Mismatch here as well, accidentally updated this morning. ?
On another note do you think this could be an exploit used for root ?

I had that problem this morning. Couldn't do anything about it. I had to exchange my phone.
Great. Mine shows mismatch, BUT, just used Samsung Pay about 15 minutes ago
Mine too
Guys before you start to exchange your phones, I have the same problem with my One Plus 3T, my Galaxy S7 edge, and the motorola Z play as well. The only phone that doesn't have that problem is the Motorola X pure edition.

But it's an issue if Android pay does not work. I don't use it as samsung pay works fine. It's just the fact that Google thinks our brand new phones are rooted/modified.
Perhaps some devious plan on Samsung's part to force owners to use Samsung Pay vs Android pay.
I never use Android pay because not enough places have the right terminals installed.

Yes I understand your point, but is not only with brand new Samsung phones it's also with the One plus 3T and Motorola Z play, I think is something wrong with Google Play services.

Was just on twitter with T-Mobile help discussing this and they indicate they are aware of the issue and have a team working on it --- we'll see. It must be something that the phone companies are doing wrong with their software updates. Yesterday I could add a card to Android Pay and today after the update I could not.

I just talked to them on Twitter and she said there is no issue and that I must have altered my phone.... like really you guys can see if I rooted my phone on ur end.
Everyone!!!! It's not an issue with the software from samsung... If you download the latest Google play services 11.0.33 the device will pass safetynet check, store will show certified and Android pay will work as expected!!! I did this and it worked for me on my S8+.

How can you update? I currently have version 10.2.98 installed and the play store does not reflect an update.
Well it seems like they are changing their stance on the issue. I reached out to T-Mobile via Twitter Support, last night, and they have informed me that they are aware of the issue and will fix in the next update. (Hoping soon)
Hey there! Thanks so much for reaching out about this and bringing it to our attention. We have noted this issue down and we are making adjustments for when our next update comes out from Samsung!
