Hi
Bought a new P600 last week. Had time for a quick play whilst it was downloading updates.
After update I don't have the weather widget, can't find it if I try to create a shortcut/widget on desktop.
I have rooted it now but not installed a recovery, staying with stock rom.
If I factory reset, will I lose root and will it affect knoX?
OK so, I've reset the tablet and discovered that it's Nova launcher that removes Samsung signed apps including the Accuweather widget.
Is there a way around this anyone know?

Hello, mates!!
I have a little problem with Dark Knight game in my unrooted Galaxy Note 8 (4.2.2)
About months ago i had version 1.1.3 installed and worked just fine, but i had to delete it because i needed internal storage space.
This week i tried to install it again, but when i start new game and tryin to play intro video, the game freezes (black screen with only skip icon showing but inactive).
Had someone the same problem? Is there a fix?
I have tried almost every version but the same things happens.
So it's probably the android version or some settings fault since i used to play this game...

Run saferoot and root your device. You can get it on the Easy way to root.. thread.
Once you root, download Ti backup and have it uninstall orphan apps. Somewhere in the system there are files that are left over from your game.
Safe root will not flash increment your counter so performing stock update will function normally. The only issue is Samsung Book Hub will not run in rooted devices. You can hide the root using substrate and Rootcloak to allow apps that do detect rooting to function.
If you are not willing to saferoot... then backup your apps and settings with Kies, and do a factory reset of your system. Then restore your apps and settings before installing your game.
If the game still does not run properly after any of the options I gave, then it is possible you are side-loading part of the app. Some apps like Samsung's Link will not side load properly without permissions and data properly transferred.
Since your not rooted at this time, doing any manual work to fix the issue will not be an option..

Wow, thanks for your advice... I don't feel like rooting this baby for a while.. but i will try factory reset when i find time to.
I'm not sure i understood what side-loading is... but i'm 100% sure that somewhere in the system there are files that are left over. I wish i could find them or perhaps a Kitkat update sometime soon maybe help. Anyway, i'm going to try new games and then come back with this...

FC in Facebook apk
Hi! After upgrading to 4.4.2 the Facebook application fails and closes automatically delete data and tried uninstalling and reinstalling but the same thing keeps happening to me, this is the case I want to go back to 4.2.2 for me but working again I left it in a permanent reboot ... no solution yet ...
I have not installed Facebook onto my tablet. I will do so to see if there are any changes I can do to make it work with my kitkat CAGrom. However, most likely you may want to send feedback to facebook, which can be done on their main website for desktops. It may be an issue for all intel devices on kit kat. I am not sure.
As for the SD-card notification. It is part of what samsung put in. So on the stock firmware it will always be present. restl3ss has worked on the fix for pimpdroid and I am doing the same for CAGrom.

I don't think it is the rom that's the problem. I have same problem with Facebook to and I have stock 4.2.2 on P5220. It's the last updates from Facebook that's the problem I think.

Hmmm, I have a p5220 and recently flashed the KitKat stock rom cleaned up and rooted by Restl3ss. Facebook works fine. But Gallery force closes. I use Quickpic so it doesn't bother me.

Now is working fine, without any problem. I don't know exactly what happened, probably it was an update, but now functioning normally. I did not look to see when was the last update.

I'm doing a new thread instead of posting on the specific stock because I believe this problem may be more generic.
---- Details -----
So, I have a P601, so Exynos processor, and I heard that recently it got the LP update, so after over a year of not messing much with root and stuff with my tablet, I decided to update it.
First, I had the Hydronium ROM (4.4.2) installed, a stock based ROM. This is the one I used for over a year, no updates.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2782580
Then I decided to install this one via TWRP ([Official Lollipop 5.1.1] Galaxy Note 10.1(2014 Edition) SM-P601 Firmware Root Deodex)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ficial-lollipop-5-1-1-galaxy-note-10-t3249975
And what I got was a Black Screen and no boot besides the Galaxy Note logo.
I then downloaded and flashed a stock ROM via Odin ([Official Lollipop 5.1.1] Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) SM-P601 Firmware Update)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ficial-lollipop-5-1-1-galaxy-note-10-t3240720
---- The Problem ----
And it booted back with all the data intact, but since then, a few apps like Gmail, Inbox and Hangouts do not work anymore, and when I check my google account, every time it syncs, it gives an error and Gmail and/or Inbox crashes with an "Unknown Google Play Services error".
I thought the problem was that I had 4.4.2 Gmail apps and they did not get updated to 5.1.1 (Though I would guess the stock rom would have done it...), so I downloaded TK-GApps, but when I went to install, it did not let me do it because I already have Google services installed, and it wasn't TK-GApps.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/tk-gapps-t3116347
So I ask, is there something I can do? I already installed the initial rooted ROM over the stock, so I have root and stuff. I would appreciate any suggestions that may help me to get it synced and not have those crashes every half an hour or so.
Thank you.
--------------------------------------------------
So, following the happenings below, I left it charging, and just before going, checked again if GMail was working and no deal, so I went to Titanium Backup and restored the data (not the apps), and in the middle of the process, GMail notified me with all recent emails, and everything works now. Well, no idea why it wasn't working before, but now it does.
Well, decided to reinstall everything again, so I backed all normal apps with Titanium Backup, and used TWRP to wipe Data and System, and re flashed everything. Followed the welcome screen, logged on my GMail account, installed Gmail, says my Google Play Services should be updated, I updated it via Play Store, and still no messages... Went to check if my entire Google account synced and no deal, failed.
So I'm guessing I must be using incompatible ROMs or something like that... I guess?
I came to a conclusion that my home app is corrupted.
I've tried to upgrade the (root ver) 5.0.5.1 to the newest available rooted rom but still the home screen have some problems
to avoid factory reset I would like to re-install only the home apk.
Can I do that?
As the title say, after the last update Game Launcher is always showing one notification as in the attached image, I checked every option in the game launcher and settings and there is noting.
Samsung suggested I make a factory reset which I did and did not solve the problem.
I am currently on A20FXXU4BRC4 , Does any one have the same problem as me?
Hi there,
Same here; latest firmware (retail - Brazil; A520FXXU4BRC2). The notification doesn't go away by any means. Very annoying...
