After flashing CM14.1 for my device sm-p605, S Note is no more available and can not be installed from play store. Does anyone know a modded S Note application that is compatible with CM14.1, or any other way to re-install it, please?
With the Galaxy Store app, and probably a Samsung account, maybe. But i want to stay clear from Samsung stuff and their lousy support.
Edit: Nope. S Note IS in Playstore! But I checked this with my S5(6.0.1)

I know it is there, but it still not compatible with the device after the cm14.1 flash. Even when I downloaded it as an apk file then installed it, it didn't start and continued to stop whenever I start it.
Then it's for Touchwiz roms only...

I went on the play store and was looking at all Google apps and I saw wallet it let me install it (fully stock non root) but when I open the app it says device not supported. But could it be that t-mobile is finally going to support Google Wallet, maybe its because their releasing the Nexus 4. Hopefully and has anyone else try this?
Thanks

yes but i believe that way you have to root and flash the app and change the build.prop, i was just saying that im fully stocked non root and locked bootloader. when you go on the play store it shows up and lets you install but the app wont work. maybe t-mobile will finally let us use it after they release the nexus?? just a thought lol

possibly, it will require a update specifically for the Note II on Google Wallets end (seems unlikely) or an update to our phone since we have some missing files inside the phone required to get Wallet up and running.
and in any case, T-mobile is knee deep in ISIS. i can't imagine them simultaneously supporting Google Wallet on all their phones. The Nexus 4 is an exception to the rule, not what we can expect going forward.
And about your phone, did your previous phones have Google Wallet?

oh i guess i got my hopes up a bit, and yes they have but not stock i have the s3 but its running cm10 and the only one stock that had it was my old Galaxy Nexus, so i guess you can imagine how excited i got when i was able to install wallet on a fully stock phone, but oh well hopefully T-mobile will have a change of heart.
Just a heads up, if you change the following lines in your build.prop, you can get some of the stock apps from the Note 4 via Samsung Apps (or Galaxy Apps or whatever it's called now). Just open up the app, go to the Galaxy Essentials section, and download. I'll post up the apks shortly....
ro.product.model=SM-N910S
ro.product.name=SM-N910S
ro.product.device=SM-N910S
Actually, I just realized somebody else already has a thread going, with all the available apks and info on the apps that are currently available....

They don't seem to work at least the few I tried force closed immediately. The browser looked the most promising. Even it didn't stay open.
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:

Hi,
Recently I have bought the Samsung Galaxy Watch and the problem is that the Galaxy Wearable app not available in my Play Store. After searching through the net, some advice from Reddit found that the culprit is my unlocked bootloader (probably the cause is the built-in Samsung Pay). With a little help from apkmirror, I have found a workaround for this issue and hope it helps someone have the same situation as me.
Step 1: Download Galaxy Wearable app at https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsung-electronics-co-ltd/samsung-gear/
Step 2 (important): Download Galaxy Watch Plugin https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsung-electronics-co-ltd/galaxy-watch-plugin/
After pairing the Galaxy Watch with the phone, the Galaxy Wearable app will automatically download Samsung Accessory Service app and finish the process. You're now good to go. Cheers
P/S: One down-side of this workaround is that you have to update these apps manually.

As far as I know, most of the Samsung app can be updated if go to Settings->About screen. Wearable app is one of them.

That only opens the Play Store page for the app.

Nope, I have tried it. If you have an unlocked bootloader, only the Samsung Accessory Service can be updated. The other two aren't available on Play Store so it's a no-go
It's available to me, and I have unlocked my bootloader on my Moto G5+. This could be more specifically about passing Safetynet, though this is just a guess.
I've been looking all over for this, big thanks!
Samsung Pay
Any workaround to use Samsung Pay with Galaxy Watch while the bootloader of the phone is unlocked?
PS: Non-Samsung Phone, No root, Galaxy Watch LTE.
Hi,
I have a Mi Max 3 6gb/128gb Chinese phone with an unlocked bootloader and Global Rom.
It is MIUI version 10.3.5.0 and Android 9 PKQ1.181007.001.
I have bought a Galaxy Active Watch 2, and am confused slightly about the correct way to get this working.
Does installing the apps from apkmirror as stated above always work?
Is the problem that the unlocked bootloader stops the app from being downloaded from the play store, and thus if you get the app elsewhere it will work?
Or is the problem that the app itself detects the unlocked bootloader? OR, is it that it all works if you load from another source, but the Samsung Pay part (I don't care much about this) won't work?
I have read that the only way to do this is to relock the bootloader (don't want to do as my phone will apparently brick itself if I do an OTA update) or to root and install Magisk, which I don't really want to do.
Any help/clarifications appreciated,
Thanks so much.
Hi Everyone,
I've been searching the site and online for an answer, but no luck.
I have the Galaxy S20+, but this is really a question that pertains to all Galaxy phones. A lot of the Samsung phone's native apps (Camera, Gallery, etc.) will have a "N" icon in Settings, telling you there is a new update for the app that you can install. For this, you have to go through the Galaxy Store. I have disabled access to the store and most other Samsung apps I don't use (Bixby, etc.) because I don't want to sign up for anything Samsung and don't want to create an account with them since I already have my Google account attached to the phone.
Now, going to the Google Play store from the the Camera or Gallery apps, it shows that I have them installed and even allows me to open the app from their store. But unlike other apps that I actually downloaded from Google Play, it won't give me the option to update from Google. It just lets me open the app.
So my question in short is can I, or how can I, update these Samsung apps through the Google Play Store instead of the Galaxy Store? If they show up in the Google Play Store, there must be a way since they are linked.
Side note, I can't uninstall most apps (especially the Camera and Gallery apps) and them re-download them from Google Play, in case anyone was curious.
Any direction or help will be much appreciated. Thanks!
I did an update to the Samsung Members app in the Play Store just the other day after originally installing it via the Galaxy Store (S20U).
I know some of the Samsung apps appear on the Galaxy Store before they reach the Play Store and for apps I've checked I have both Uninstall and Open buttons in both stores. Don't see why it wouldn't be possible for certain apps.

Interesting. I just checked and I don't have the Samsung Members app installed to compare. But like you said as well, it should be possible.
Hopefully someone here knows how?
Just use samsung app store..

You can download new versions of your apps from apkmirror

Short answer: Yes and no.
As you discovered, some Samsung apps are available in the Google Play Store. Those can be updated via the Play Store. The other Samsung apps must be updated via Samsung Galaxy Store or sideloaded (the best source is Samsung apk mirror).
Having a Samsung account doesn't force you to use their apps. I have a Samsung account, but I disabled all of their apps except for Calculator, Galaxy Wearable, Good Lock, My Files, and One Hand Operation+, and having a Samsung account doesn't affect my battery or usage habits whatsoever.

Thanks everyone.
Sublimaze, I think this is the most helpful answer. Thanks. I have a couple of follow-up questions from your response:
- I know a little about sideloading, but I'm not fully versed. But say I download the Samsung Camera and Gallery apps from Apkmirror, how do I install them if my Galaxy S20+ device doesn't let me uninstall Camera and Gallery? In the settings, I can't even disable them (it's greyed out). Maybe these two app examples are exceptions and I can't do anything about it? I will say many (if not all) of the Samsung apps I see on my device do not give me the option to disable or uninstall
- When you sideload an app, how do you receive updates or update the app in the future? Is it a one-and-done situation, or will I be able to do updates on Google Play moving forward? Or, will I be stuck and never be able to do updates, with the only way being is to just keep installing newer versions when they come out on Apkmirror?
- And finally, is Apkmirror reliable?
And thanks for clarifying the bit on the Samsung accounts.

Samsung app store is far more reliable compared to apkmirror.

That makes sense. I think what I'm just going to have to do is just tough it out and use the Samsung Store to updates the ones I can only do through there, then revoke permissions to the Samsung Store app after I'm done. Seems like the safest way to go.
Thanks.
