SamAppz

Everything works G-R-E-A-T & finally will be able to enjoy this Samsung Galaxy TAB A 10.1" 2016 tablet! Thank you!

Only item I cannot get to flash is the SamAppz... & cannot find anyone else referencing this. It simply just does not

show up in TWRP to flash?!!! I realize it's a 7zip file.... but?

I have winzip but am not sure if unzipping it & re-creating the zip with winzip would suffice or throw a wrench in.......

Will wait for an answer....

Best work on XDA for this device!

Mental roadblock

I have read, thank you, but guess this is where my mental roadblock kicks in~! I unpacked in downloads folder. Already have an "apps", "priv-apps" folder under SYSTEM of course. Clicking the Samapp & installling it gets a query of "no-database" please install the d-b and run app again. I copy the db to the system folder & get the same. Do I have to copy the contents of both "app" & "priv-app" over to their respective folders under SYSTEM & change the permissions octal to 0755? Where do I place the db?

My apologies beforehand..... the simpler something is the harder it is for my brain to grasp.....

zls

*** I realize now this is what should have been done before I went installing ALLLL the apps I usually use. From immediately after I got the Extremely ROM loaded. It's laid out so perfectly the obvious is just too pure! Truly an expert, thanks for this, will be supporting this thread!

***mistake***
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] luattic:
Simplest is the best.

Just unpack "Samappz" directory into internal sdcard (not root /system/ dir or /download/), only internal sdcard base path, and install .apk included in it, only this.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] coolbeans2016:
Google app

The Google app, when I install it, will no longer let "OK Google" hot word work.... let assistant open by saying the "OK Google" phrase?

Any ideas?

zls

***EDIT***

Created folder under "priv-app", (named Velvet)... changed octal to 0755. Copied the long named Google app from app folder into that and changed the name to Velvet.apk under the Velvet folder & restarted device. Everything is working fine....... sorry for messing up the thread more....

I downloaded the Sam apps and did the instructions to install via SamsApp with the SamAppz folder on the internal storage.

Some install and some don't. I tried to manually run the apk and it launches and I click on install and I App not installed This package appears to be corrupt. I assumed I had a bad download, so I re-downloaded and same result on the new files.

thoughts?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] TheArtfulPenguin:
Another issue I just ran into that I hope someone has some insight into.

I use Adownloader for some torrent downloads. It worked perfectly before the flashed to this. Now it installs, I can search but when I try to download I get an error of: Cannot download the torrent!:Invalid URL.

I basically have the same configuration network wise, I do use a VPN and that VPN does support port forwarding and downloads. This worked on Monday and after the change to this ROM it doesn't. I have tried it with and without the vpn, and on a couple different networks.

Last time I had a problem similar was a rights issue with the download directory but all apps can download to the download directory.

Any thoughts?

Hi,

have a small question.

Is inside samsung firma a app which is is for the headphone controll?

If, could somone told me which?

My headphone is not working correct i. If i connect a 3,5 Kabel, the tab is playing musik over internal speakers.

Any idea why?

No headphone is working.

It is realy boring.

Thanks for help
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] luattic:
Hi,

I don't know why you got this issue.

Make sure the right of "dowload" directory are set to (drwxrwx--x)

in shell (terminal emulator) [remind "$" appear when current user is used, "#" appear when "superuser" is used], "$" and "#" are already present and don't need to be typed.

[step 1] type:

$ su

# cd /

# cd /sdcard

# ls -l

the previous command list directory under your user directory. Find "dowload" directory and check if the rights are (drwxrwx--x). If this is not the case, change it with the following commands:

[step 2]

# chmod 771 /sdcard/download

Now check (with [step 1]) the new rights of "download" directory.

Another way to fix your issue is to create a new directory, for example "mydownload" and in your download software you change option to this new directory.

Or you can try "Advanced Download Manager", or another soft like this.

Hi,

Under "Options" tab you have sound tab for audio parameters but nothing special for headphone.

I use "PowerAmp" or "VLC" to view vidz or listen music. When i plug 3.5 jack in the tab, the internal speaker shutdown automatically and headphone let sound to be hear. And when i unplug the jack, internal speaker get sound.

I use simple headphone with 3 pins jack like this [but not this one] (without volume control or microphone), maybe, you can try with another headphone.

I hope this help you.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] switchgott:
Thanks..

found the solution...

1. Turn device off

2. Make sure your headphones are plugged ALL the way in (you should hear a click sound)

3. Press the on/off button and the volume up button at the SAME TIME

4. Once the screen is on let the on/off button go

5. DO NOT let the volume up button go

6. Wait until the tablet has finished loading all settings up.

7. Let volume up button go.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] TheArtfulPenguin:
Thanks. I did try this and the rights were good, I still tried to reset. Before I posted the issue I was having I had created a new folder and tried that to no avail.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] luattic:
Ok, bad news ...

Have you try another download manager ?

A question, when you use your internet browser, and you download a file (in "download" directory), have you the same issue ?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] coolbeans2016:
Sam.apk

On the download part no, I have experienced problems with downloads in Android b4 when NOT using Es File Explorer Pro's download manager....

But as to the Sam.apk. Went round & round with it myself until I just placed it in the open in the local storage & unzipped/installed the Sam.apk. It went fine then, opening & allowing the choices as to what does/does not get installed. It is so simple it can be "child proof" if you get my meaning.....

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] luattic:
Good for samappz ...

For folder issue, I recommend you to try another appz as said before, since you don't have problem when you use internet browser for downloading file in "download" dir.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] lewmur:
Have you tried /Setup/Apps and checked the permissions for the Adownloader app?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] TheArtfulPenguin:
Yes I did. I even removed the permission and added back the permission for storage.

---------- Post added at 03:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:46 PM ----------

Good questions.

I have also tried utorrent. nada.

If in the browser I download a file, or if in email I download a file it is good and in the download folder.

New Firmwareupdate...

[MENTION=8022634]luattic[/MENTION]

There's a new firmwareupdate for SM-T580:

http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-T580

;););)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] luattic:
Thank for information.

I will try to make new Extremely version this week-end for both, T580 and T585.

Information about vote (poll) result for next rom versions:

SuperSU -> 23.33%

Magisk -> 76.67%

So, normally (except unexpected behaviour) now i will use Magisk instead of SuperSU to making T580 and T585 roms versions to be rooted.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Viggen66:
Just bought yesterday this wonderful tablet, I guess installing custom without triggering knox is an impossible mission, well I find the Samsung Stock rom quite polish and well done, but too many google apps, like double browser (samsung and chrome), email client, etc.

Do your rom also brings the kids mode? I have a child which needs this feature.

Why there is a specific country stock rom? Doesn't android brings multi language to its menus, weird feature of samsung of not delivering a single stock rom like most other vendors.

Also I like very much the Samsung apps, because is unique, google apps are available to any android gadget.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] luattic:
Hi,

Yes using Samappz you can use it (see here).

Because some country use some specific appz or have some restrictions ...

As (1), using Samappz patch you can still using original samsungs applications except "samsung pay" and other apps who need to have knox functionality who working right.

For your convenience, wait 2-3 day to get the last version of extremely rom (i'm working on it), but if you want to try functionalities, you can try the actual version.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Viggen66:
Thanks for your promptly reply, I see how you pull out the idea, of making everything optional, like a user should be able to use whatever he/she wishes for.

To further enhance this wonderful rom, I don't know if it is already done, is to add an pre installed host file to block adds instead of using the adaway making this rom completely self sustained without needing any further doing.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] luattic:
"Adds" ip list is country dependent (usually), it's better choice to let everyone make his own choice (i think).
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Shadowghoster:
It's not country dependant for most ad networks (like Facebook, Google, etc) but I'd still prefer to have the freedom to choose the adblocking for myself.

Update informations :

Hi guys.

I've got some strange issues with t580 rom, like unexpected reboot, i try to find why.

Need more time to make some tests. Sorry but update wasn't ready today "Sunday", not enough time (family project).

But i am on it when i have free time.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] luattic:
Follow instructions in "OP", and be sure "OEM unlock" is checked in "Developer option" before all.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Viggen66:
Thanks I found this explanation on another thread

WARNING: Do not boot into Samsung's ROM without first applying our Root .zip. Samsung's OTA updates install /system/etc/install-recovery.sh and /system/recovery-from-boot.p, which cause Samsung's ROM to replace the recovery image you had just flashed with the stock recovery. Our Root .zip removes these files, thus preserving your custom recovery. Follow the directions below to boot directly into CWM recovery.

I need to disable Odin autoreboot or else recovery gets replaced by stock again.

I got TWRP 3.2.1.0 running and I had fresh backup, but if I do restore my Bluetooth get disabled, I tried to replace BT's files but that doesn't work, Only way I can fix it if I do fresh install without using TWRP backup
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Viggen66:
Downloading stock firmware is tricky since Samsung doesn't provide downloads on their own website, and using alternative roms like Lineage and derivatives it like having a tablet like thousands of others, with no real differentiation besides the size of the tablet and the Samsung logo, I'm very surprised how good the stock rom is, but we are taking about Samsung a company that has money to pay for a good developing team.

Just wanting for whistlers and bells from luattic, because as good the stock rom is with no tweaks or modifications, I also like very much the freedom on my gadget to make whatever I want, and Luattic´s work does just that.

Btw , for those who still don't have this tablet, now is a good time to buy it, because of the eminent release of the successor Tab A2 10.5, Samsung is just disposing the remaining stock of the previous generation at cheaper prices.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Viggen66:
Already managed to install TWRP, for new newbies, just uncheck Auto-Reboot on Odin options or else, stock recovery is installed again, already triggered knox, for warranty void, which I care less.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] linuxct:
It's been just a week, do we need to push them so hard?

Also, from my own experience as developer, being asked for updates increases stress and makes you want to feel like not continuing a project.

Since an issue was found, I'm very sure some more time will be needed, so let them be.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Viggen66:
Yes you're right, I know the feeling is ready when is ready lucky to have someone willing to do it.

Just got back to this great rom from LOS15. Overall performance is smoother on stock derived roms rather than Lineage one's. I'm just a bit concerned about the compatibility with Netflix and Playstore. Anyway, I don't want to mess around with Magisk and its modules. If you guys know any other workaround than manually installing the apk, I would be glad to know it. Thanks a lot for your time.

P. S. Official Oreo from Samsung scheduled for next dicembre. Such a great news.

Pretty smooth install

I just installed this ROM on a used T580 I purchased last week. I haven't run into any issues thus far in operation and the tablet seems very responsive. The only problem I had when loading the ROM was first boot defaulted to German for setup and I had to use the German (english) language. After setup I was able to change it to English (US). Overall very pleased with the ROM. It will be interesting to see if Samsung really does release an official Oreo version late this year (also waiting for LG to release it for my G5 phone).

Thanks for the rom! Works perfect except 1 strange thing.

I use pattern to unlock. When the pattern is used, there is a small delay before it unlocks.

When I have the powersave option enabled, the delay is just little longer then screen timeout so just before the screen is unlocked, the screen turns of again with the result it is locked again. It is pretty hard to unlock my device when this happens :(

Without the powersave option enabled this small delay is a minor thing but I do like to enable powersave if possible.

Anyone else noticed this?
