To the op: it needs internet for two reasons. To connect with knox servers to allow the app to do what it does, that's Samsung's requirement. And to verify the license for the actual app, to prevent piracy.

And for why it's not working... You didn't really describe what's happening, so we can't help you... But i mean, a lot of people have a great experience with PDP for samsung devices... I can only assume its user error... Maybe you refuse to Grant it permissions, have a device that's restricted with knox by your employer, or you're rooted (or were)...

Pretty good list.

Kinda surprised it still worked after partially disabling the service that makes it possible (knox)... No doubt you're getting some extra cpu drain from the errors that's causing, run a log cat, guarantee you've got a lot errors happening.

And for the Samsung Experience Service, you must be using a third party launcher, because that's essentially touchwiz.

As for Google, don't quite see the benefit of disabling that. It's where google assistant is, and hardly does anything at all in the background.

Otherwise, great list.

Tip for everyone, after disabling apps, run a logcat (google "adb log cat" or download the cat log app) and just look for the words "error", "warning", "failed, "doesn't exist", and "found"... The more time you see any of those, more than likely that means more resources wasted because of missing packages. (Services call on other services, and they tend to cause tantrums when they don't get a response)... Probably a good idea to also do it before disabling anything, to establish a baseline.

I disabled the annoying app that kept asking me to sign up for Knox services. I don't think there's any means to disable Knox itself since it's part of the bootloader. There are plenty of errors spewing in logcat but they all appear to be sloppy code rather than any specific problem.

Nova Launcher Prime replaces Samsung Experience.

Google Search is disabled because I'm not using the search bar and it seems to pre-fetch a LOT in the background. I'm not a fan of Google cross-linking everything in inappropriate ways so I'm not using their apps.

MailDroid Pro replaces Email and GMail.

I noticed that Google now spams your phone's GMail account asking you to use Google apps. There's no opt-out, of course.

Any diference with AdHell 3 when disabling the apps? I'm using AdHell (is free), but I'd like to know if the uninstallation performed by PD is deeper.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] *Detection*:
Adhell 3 uses KNOX, Package Disabler Pro uses ADB
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Shaglok:
Thanks, but sorry for the (surely silly) question. The result is the same? I mean, disabling via ADB is like disabling via Knox? Or one method is better than other?

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] *Detection*:
Different methods, same result
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nye-uhls:
Package Disabler pro on samsung devices also uses Knox, it uses adb for non-samsung devices.

Well right on, you've got your replacement apps. I couldn't do that personally (even before i got hooked on Google Assistant).

And you can turn off a LOT of the pre-fetching, and the cross linking that the Google app and others do, but of course there will always be some (web and app activity in google account. Others in the google app, like contacts, calendar, call logs, sms, etc)

I'd be interested to know how your battery life compares, because while the Google apps can be... Busy... They do their business in pretty light-weight ways.

Another voice to the "works fine here" choir. Works great on S9+ and A8 (2018). No problems at all with it.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] driverdis:
I have used both the older one that uses PDP and the newer one on the Galaxy J3, J7, S6, S7, and S9 with minor issues like the list showing up blank but other than that it can disable anything since Knox is used on Samsung phones instead of ADB.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] rg1911:
Just bought and installed the Pro version. When it displays the list of apps and I select one, it then pops up a screen that has a Disable option box at the top. When the Disable box is checked, there is no way to exit the popup except to click the Back arrow at the bottom of the screen. Thus, the app is not disabled.

Has anyone experienced this and fixed the problem?

Thank you,

Richard
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Tel864:
If you want to disable the app then just tick the box and don't touch the app name. That way you won't get the pop-up. BTW, when I do it your way I can click disable back out and it still saves the disable.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] rg1911:
Now Package Disabler Pro just errors out, even after uninstalling and reinstalling the app, and restarting my phone. I'll just have to find another way to disable junk apps.

Cheers,

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] KimLevie:
I don't know why you guys bought this app? i mean there's a better alternative (SABS, Adhell) which is totally free of cost and also works as a adblocker IMO. better check this out before wasting your time on this app.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] maXDAmn:
I didn't wasting my time on this thing because this thing is really work for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Tel864:
No waste of time here and for most people since it works fine. I find it much easier with the app than with the alternative.

---------- Post added at 07:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:06 PM ----------

Are you using the latest version available in Play?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] rg1911:
I got it from Play, so believe it to be the latest. Not sure why it's not working correctly since it seems to be behaving itself on other Galaxy S9 phones.

I'll have to see about trying the more manual methods. I'm afraid that if I keep messing with Package Disabler Pro, it will screw up my phone.

Richard
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Tel864:
Well, just avoid ANY system apps and you should be OK. Clear the app's data before uninstalling and then re-install.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] shadowcliffs:
Package disabler used to work fine on my S9+ Sprint variant. But after I flash U1 firmware and took OTA to 3ARI1, this thing stopped working. After I check the App that I want to disable, it just gave me an error message. It's the latest version 14.5 from Play Store.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] kevinmcmurtrie:
As the bad reviews say, you have to keep buying the newer versions after each Samsung update.

It's still not as bad as the $10/month I lose because the S9+ leaves cellular data active even while WiFi is on.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] maXDAmn:
No need to re-buying, in my case I just email the developer and asking for serial number.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Tel864:
That's why you can't always believe reviews because that's not true.

My PDP experience

I actually got this app (PDP) free from the Play Store when it was included in their "apps on sale" section (which I check religiously because although it frequently consists of just a lot of icon packs, etc., I've also found a fair amount 'gems' hidden here!) ~ as far as I can tell with my limited technical knowledge, it has performed as indicated for me on both Galaxy Tab E and S8 Plus.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] austin_5118:
My only issue is that google play services and NFC don't show up, so I can't disable on a deeper level. Anyone know why?

But, not working anymore. Last time I tried he's just replying me to buy another PDP from his website.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
That's bull though, he should continue to support the version I bought. I still haven't been able to get a new version that works, months later.

The same here. Once my phone updated to Pie I get the "Failed to validate the product key". All I got from the developer was a reply telling me to go to their website. I am not buying it again either.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Same here. I first bought package pro disabler then package pro disabler Plus. Now it won't work on android 9.0 so I guess the dev is gonna repack it and sell it as another app lol He can go pound sand.

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
According to my order history I already purchased this app on Sept 9th 2018. Yet the link shows another pay for app for $2.99.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Guides, News, & Discussion] *Detection*:
Yep because he keeps re-releasing the same app with a different package name because Samsung keep blocking it from working on their phones, but instead of making it easy for people who have already purchased it to not have to pay again, he just releases it as a new app, which is why people are sick of it

Easy solution would be for the dev to release a key app that unlocks a free version of the actual program, like SDMaid Pro and Nova Launcher Prime does, unlikely Samsung would block the key app

Or have a unique code per customer that works with each new release

here is Samsung SM-A720F which has frp lock ! (FRP = On)

I know how to solve this problem, but it has another problem that doesn't let the device to become Ok.

First, the "System Status = Custom" in Downloading Mode , which usually flashing device with Official Firmware it should be changed to "Official

it's wired !!! I've tried 10 different Firmwares with correct binary (the phone's binary is 3 and firmware's binary is also 3)

but it doesn't changed to "Official" ( still System Status = custom :| )

Second , after device flashing , it's just rebooted to recovery mode and shows the below error messages :

- E:failed to mount /efs (Invalid argument)

- E:failed to clear BCB message: failed to find /misc partition

- dm-verity verification failed...

As i know flashing the custom recovery on phone and adb commands solved my problem ! but frp lock is on and i can't flash the custom recovery !!!

note : phone not booted after flashing !

Does anyone know how to deal with this ?!

Hello everyone,

I have a strange problem, last night my phone was charging on quick charge then all of a sudden, charging stopped then I Unplugged then put back the charger in. Ever since then my MI 6 seem to have no quick charge feature. I tried different chargers that have quick charge but when I plug in the phone, it starts charging but right at the point it should recognize quick charge, it just acts weird and stops charging then goes back to old fashioned charging mode. I'm on epic rom miui 9 7.12.21

I wonder if anyone has had this problem and how can I fix this. I need fast charging because of my job and have no time to wait for the old fashioned way.

Thanks for your time and answers.

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] JerryBond:
Hi! I have successfully conducted troubleshooting of everyone calling me hearing an echo of themselves!

Turns out, there appear to be two settings for microphone detection.

1st when it's uncovered, and the communications are nornal and working well

2nd where it's covered, and the detection is amplified to still hear the op3 user same as before

Problem with the second is, that it detects sound from upper part of the phone, so the other party hears themselves.

In my opinion, the lower limit of detection switching it into 2nd option is too high, because even when uncovered it happens sometimes in bad conditions, far more using phone cover (yes it has microphone uncovered, but there is noticeable difference).

If possible, that limit should be lowered, or the function altered because this echo isn't something a phone of this rank should have.

*I've only assumed how it works by observation, there may even be a curve? That could also be altered. Anyways, it really is an urgent fix in my opinion, I don't know about the rest of you.

To reproduce it, remove cover, take two phones, and call the second phone. Listen to second phone, and cover/uncover microohone on op3.

It happens on stock software or any other rom/framework I've tried so far.

I'm not a phone developer myself, but hope someone can work with this.

Regards, JerryBond

Hi guys,

I have just purchased Xtorns TCD618 with Android 7.1, I then purchased the igo NextGen maps (igo Basar 9.18.27.736574)

Maps installed perfectly and runs ok however I am having issues with Sound.

No matter what I do, I do not get any sound from the Speakers.

The music does go down when ""i believe maps will be talking", I haven't installed the unit in car yet and only testing it in simulation mode.

I have checked all sys.txt files / ini file and all have volume to 255. Unit settings are to allow "intelligent sounds", Map sounds to front or all speakers, and Navi volume set higher than radio.

I had 100% working version on my older unit igo-9.6.2.636868 on my Mazda however that version does not support 1024 x 600 screens so can not work on TCD618.

any help will be appreciated.

Theoretically you could install the system apps + frameworks, assuming they don't have any native libraries (I haven't checked). Full emulation isn't an option, as there hasn't been a MIPS Android Emulator for years.
