I got scammed by an online reseller and send a SM-A7000 with bloated adware when I ordered a SM-A700H. To get rid of the adware I flashed Samsung Official rom 5.0.2 but now I can't get gapps to work.

I have rooted the phone with the SM-A700H root recovery but moving the gapps that I got from Apkmirror to the systems\app folder just results in errors that google framework has stopped.

I don't have the skill to extract the framework from the SM-A700H 5.0.2 rom nor Port it to the SM-A7000.

If anyone with the skill can help it would be very very appreciated.

I don't normally reply to these posts when someone unnecessarily creates a voting thread I usually just ignore, so in future I suggest you create a standard post in Q&A.

You are probably having permissions issues due to the way you have installed GAPPS.

Install a proper GAPPS zip package via TWRP.

Some work better than others. PICO may work.

If you still get issues make sure that each app including all Google services has full permissions in app manager.

Hello,

I have a Nexus 5X and I was having issues with the Android N beta and some apps, so I decided to do a Factory Reset and fix the app issues (it did) BUT the screen got dull, colors are not bright. The Play Music icon looks almost brown.

I have tried multiple factory resets, I even rolled back to Android M, then applied the OTA Update to N to no avail.

I attached some pictures to detail the issue. I checked the entire internet and I can't seem to find a similar issue.

Hi, I Have an LG G Vista 2 that i am desperately looking to root. I feel that it has a lot of potential when it comes to specs for its price, but has a huge disadvantage because bloatware and cpu caps are slowing it down. IT would be really nice if someone could point me into the right direction. FWI on the XDA/ XDA Labs app when it selects "MY Device" it automatically chooses the LG G Vista 2 but then randomly swiches to the LG G Flex 2. I try to change my device but there is no option for it.

Thanks in advance,

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] flyinj54:
If the rumor is true and Samsung is truly going to block imei's after September 30th of phones not replaced under the recall how would they go about doing this? I would assume by silent OTA. Would running twrp and custom ROM be able to stop this from happening? Before anyone assumes I'm not replacing device by choice this is not true. My eBay seller is unwilling to exchange my device and Samsung is unwilling to help since it was bought on eBay and device is international and I'm in the usa. So I'm in a bad spot and refuse to have a$900 paper weight. I'm looking into other options with eBay on somehow getting my money back but it looks to be a long shot.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] chevanlol360:
How did you pay? With PayPal? Cause in pretty sure they can get the refund done with their return policy for customers if you go through them.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] rcobourn:
I don't think it involves an ota, the block list is sent to the carriers. I think it was intended for stolen phones.

Working with eBay is your best bet, from the sounds of it. Best of luck.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Batfink33:
IMEIs can be blocked through networks not by OTA or software, it's literally a block from using any mobile network by the network worldwide.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] flyinj54:
Yes I did use PayPal and a credit card that is setup through them. I am within the 30 day return window. I did read that the return is only valid through a defective product or item received not as described. I would consider the recall a defect but we willing have to see if they agree. What is the likelihood they would send all these imei's blocks to every carrier in the usa on an international phone? I would that would be highly unlikely. I would say the usa versions imei's I could see being blocked but an international devices imei? What do you think?

I reread a post that it would be worldwide block through all carriers. I can't hardly believe they can do this on a product you bought that they won't replace because Of where you bought it. This is becoming a real pita
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Ambrosios:
rumors are rumors.....unless samsung release a statement stating that they are going to ban the IMEI everything is smoke and daggers.........exchange can always be done at the sammy regional store/office where they device was first purchased (in this case...where ebay seller got the phones from initially)

while the F version is called the "international" version....each region has their own variation of the F model......

buying from ebay is like buying your neighbor's car......once purchase in good faith......your neighbour is not responsible for any maintenance thereafter.....
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Batfink33:
IMEIs are blocked worldwide when they are blocked. It's a worldwide system for stopping device usage after phone theft.

Omg I don't want a $1200 CAD paperweight..
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] sakohunter:
I think a lot of the ebay seller, ebay themselves, and PayPal issues and problems regarding refunds and exchanges. Is mainly due to the fact that the recalls were new and no one really had any idea of how to go about it and were just pushing blame.

If you wait a little bit for the smoke to Settle and there is a little more clarity on what is going on, in regards to the recalls and procedures.

Maybe some of these entities may reverse or take a different stand on their earlier decisions if you revisit them, after they get a better understanding of what is going on and how their earlier decision just left their consumers. Screwed. Especially ebay and PayPal who are suppose to protect the consumers with buyers protection.

Are you in the same position as myself?
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] NIKKOTUASON:
My seller (never-msrp) is just giving me the run around. I keep messaging him/her/them but their telling me their still waiting on what Samsung is going to do and or tell them how to act when being asked about returns.

Just saw this article:

http://www.androidauthority.com/samsung-remotely-deactivate-defective-galaxy-note-7-715862/
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Ambrosios:
recalls work different way.....since the device it not defective......so i don't think its a matter of pushing blame.......

buyer protection is only useful when you haven't got the item or it isn't what is described.........the devices wasn't defective when you received it......it was in working order.......at this point....its mostly out of ebay's hands since it came as advertised......

paypal will probably look at it....and say.....the transaction was made in good faith between you and the seller......(because the product came as advertised...recall does not fall into "defective" categories).........

the ebay seller depending on who it is....may help you with the exchange.....each seller can have their own terms and condition though.......i checked a couple of listing....and most of them say that you have a 12 month manufacturing warranty.....(i think the key word is manufacture....which means its samsung).......so its more like if the seller is willing to help....but most likely you will have to deal with samsung yourself......

if you know where your phone was first purchased......then you can call the samsung number for that region and see what you can do......

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] BarryH_GEG:
If Samsung wants to blacklist an IMEI they'd have to do it through one or more carriers.

http://www.gsma.com/managedservices/device-blacklist-services/

You can't access Samsung's services without a Samsung account. They do have the IMEI associated with registered accounts. So they could block access to their services but that's pretty much it.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Belimawr:
in theory they could just send the "dud" phone IMEI list to the networks and ahve them put the same blocks in place they would with stolen phones, Samsung will know the IMEI of every phone being recalled and ar working with all the suppliers and networks to do the recall so if they wanted they could easily have every phone in the recall blacklisted making them unusable as a phone. (obviously wifi would still work but mobile networks would be locked)

but as posted further up Samsung have said they have no plan to block the phones, this is just another person on reddit trying to spread fear and confusion.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] DionWhite33:
I went to Paypal and they are NOT helping me with my refund at all...but this is just a confirmed rumor anyways
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] BarryH_GEG:
An IMEI is simply an identification number used by

carriers

to assign physical devices to customer accounts and services. An IMEI without a carrier is a phone without a network which makes it meaningless. Let's say Samsung shipped 750K Note7's to AT&T. If they sold 500K the IMEI would be registered to the network and the accounts of 500K users. The one's in boxes not so much. Samsung has no idea what AT&T did with the 750K Note7's they received nor under normal circumstances would they care. If Samsung wanted to disable all 750K devices they'd have to make the request through AT&T. AT&T would then submit those IMEI's (if they chose to) to the GSMA to add to the blacklist. Carrier's blacklist phones, not OEMs.

So if Samsung sold 10K unlocked phones in the UK they'd have no idea what carrier they are being used on or even if they are being used in the UK. How would they IMEI blacklist non-carrier associated phones? I guess they could leverage one carrier to submit all 2.5M IMEIs to the GSMA but what carrier in their right mind would want to put themselves in the middle of Samsung's self created debacle. 20% of carriers probably sell 80% of Samsung's phones so Samsung could work with those power players to get devices blocked. But what happens when let's say Vodafone starts getting questions about IMEI's they submitted on Samsung's behalf? If you were Vodafone (or AT&T, O2, Telstra, et.al.) would you want to insert yourself in to someone else's mess?

I've got a call from Samsung France concerning the recall (It's a bit strange to see «Samsung» as the caller ID :) ).

In France, I've got a email (sent by my carrier) containing a number I was supposed to call for the recall (which I did).

When you f**k up like that, that seems like the sensible thing to do : inform customers and be reachable to answer their questions!
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Belimawr:
in the US system the IMEI is a network identifier and connects you to that network, but in the rest of the world the IMEI is a superfluous identifier used for no reason other than network baring as the only thing that ties a phone to a network/account is the sim card and an optional modifier in android put in by the networks to stop people using phones on other networks, but upon request the networks now have to supply the code to unlock the phone to work with a sim from any network.

once a phone is stolen the IMEI is blocked from all networks to render the phone useless, it is a somewhat centralised system as if it was only done on a network by network level once a phone is stolen you would just say it didn't work on the network it came from. this si the big difference in GSM and the American CDMA system, GSM your network connects through a SIM card that identifies with the network meaning you can go and pick up a phone from any shop and stick the SIM card in and use the vast majority of networks in the world. the exception being america where the phones are hard coded to the networks and identified by hardware, that is why America is having to use SIM's for LTE/4G as the 4G network is based on GSM and isn't compatible with the outdated and locked down american system.

simply put due to the nature of the US networks the phone identifies with the network through IMEI, in pretty much the rest of the world where GSM is the norm the phone identifies due to data on a SIM card, put that sim in any unlocked phone and you can use that network from the sim and you can swap the sim about as much as you want and the account and number changes for the phone to what is dictated by the sim.

it's like when I got my Note 7 it caused a chain, I put my SIM in the Note making it work with my number, I put my Dads SIM in my old S6 making it instantly his number and finally put my mam's SIM in my dad's old phone and it instantly became her number, to emphasise this, I'm on O2, my dad is Vodafone and my mam is on 3.

this is how the majority of the world works, the American locked down system is the only one where phones actually need reprogramming to work with a different network then can't cross the lines between the majority CDMA networks and the minority of GSM networks. when 4G becomes more common likely America will switch from CDMA and you will have the same freedom the rest of the world has.
