Hi,
I was browsing my GT10.1 account on account.samsung.com and I clicked on "Notice".
There, I only have one notice "Welcome to Samsung account" which dates earlier than my purchase date!
Is this normal? or does it mean that my tab was used/registered before I purchased it?
I guess this notice date should match the date I purchased/registered my device.
Samsung Account Value?
I think I observed the same message. The related question I have is if I don't use any of the Samsung hub apps, is there any value to even having a Samsung account? Is there anything that I will miss out on? btw, my guess is no.

You need your Samsung Account if you need to wipe your device in case you lost it.

I forgot that I did set that up with the original device! I never set it up again after the last botched software upgrade.
I am using AVG anti-virus, it offers the same functionality for free also. Lookout also has it, but you need to subscribe.

You won't get OTA updates if you don't add Samsung account in the tab.

Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
So guys what do you think of the initial question?
Is it normal that the "Welcome" message in my 'Notice' section was received before I got my tab? [I created my account on Oct 21, and the welcome message dates Oct 6!]
Do you have a similar message as far as date is concerned?
Many thanks!
ace.
I bought my tab on Aug 8th 2011
Created account on Aug 28th 2011
Notice came on Oct 6th 2011

Hi all!
So I just bought the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.0 and its my first tab. I have a HTC Desire cellphone, so android isn't completely unknown for me.
Even though I do have a few questions, maybe you guys can help me with.
1)
I have seen many screenshots where people have different background for each screen. One homepage, one called music to the left and maybe one called games to the right (just examples). And it look really awsome, how do I get it to mine?
2) It says it can have different email clients synchronized, but I cant get my yahoo mail to cooperate with it - I have no idea why. When I try to add another mail than Gmail (which I dont use) then it wont accept it. I did wrote to Samsung but they have no explanation or what so ever.
I'm a new user and cant post any outside links. I found the guide at a site called androidspot - how to setting yahoo mail on samsung galaxy tab.
3) generel tips! I really love my tab and think it is a great machine and can, in some place, be a substitute for a laptop. And that is what it is. I do have the feeling I dont really use all its function or just half of them.
Hope you guys can help me
And btw, I'm from Europe therefore there maybe be som function I cant use, like Move Hub (Damn! This one would be awsome to have!).

Hi
I can only answer your first Q:
Get this App --> https://market.android.com/details?id=org.tamanegi.wallpaper.multipicture
Maybe you should try to get an OTA update from Samsung to solve your mail problem.
Otherwise flash a newer ROM.
BTW: Good choice for the tablet ;-)

To get that app, should I get into the app store or should I go through your link, with my tab? I actually had no idea we were able to download direct from the internet, thought we had to go through the app store?
What is an OTA update? I recently updated the tab, so I suppose I have what we call touchwiz at the moment? I have heard the word "honeycomb", is that another OS or same thing as touchwiz?
According to this site you need to upgrade to a Yahoo! Mail Plus account.
Or try this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11684055&postcount=7
You can use the stock email app using these settings. I will post a video on my blog showing step by step soon.

opening this link on your tab will result in a question if you would like to open this like with the browser or the market, choose market.
OTA means Over The Air. but therefore you need to have setup an account at samsung. can be done under settings - about phone (or something - last option).

I made it work, now I just need some great background. Thanks you
About a OTA, how do I get one? And mere important, what is it?
And yeah, hopefully it wont dissapoint me ;-) So far I'm happy for it. I have bought some games and for some reason it seems to have some problem playting them. Sometimes it suddently exit the game to the homescreen, and I have no idea why.
So I bought a google play developer license to publish apps on the play store, and put in like 5 apps on the play store, all with good ratings and good number of downloads.
Recently i made an app for pinterest, since there was none and it got a good number of downloads and people liked it. But then the app got suspended and so did my account.
I tried contacting google, but no response from them. So now i don't know if my account will ever get reinstated or not?
Should i just make a new account? does anyone here have a similar experience? Please let me know as to what i should do?
any idea? anyone?
any news on this? I am having some major issues with my Play account as well....

Only Google will be able to tell you for sure. No one here will be able to help you as it is all on them,
Google should let you know if account is suspended. Are none of your apps available in play store at all?
If not then google are only ones who can help you.

Nothing from google, sent them an email, no reply from them. Basically the account is just banned and i am assuming only way out of this is to just open a new account with a new email address.

Be careful doing this. If google catches you any hope of getting your account back will be gone and both accounts will be banned for good

Zelendel is right. If your account was suspended because of your apps, which is only reason I can imagine that makes sense, as soon as they are uploaded to new account its probable they would be flagged by google.
It seems odd they wouldn't tell you why though as I had an app removed by google from us market because in description I used a three letter sentence mattel copyrighted (I didn't know as not in America) but they never suspended my account though so perhaps they mistakenly believe your code was some form of malware (their bouncer checks apps automatically and may have made a mistake) and that may be why?
Google are meant to explain why an account is suspended in an email to you. So somewhere you should have one. Check http://betterandroid.wordpress.com/...ccount-was-suspended-and-we-had-no-ideas-why/ to read about a developer who had similar experience. In their case it seems they were mistaken for a similar named publisher.

Problem is when asked the reason, i only get an automated email which says
"Thank you for your note.
Your Google Play Publisher account has been suspended due to prior
violations of our terms of service by this or associated accounts. You may
view these terms here: two links to policies
Please note that Google Play Publisher suspensions are associated with
developers, and may span multiple account registrations and related Google
services.
Please do not attempt to register a new developer account. Any subsequent
registrations without an explicit reinstatement will be closed and your
developer account fee not refunded.
We are unable to provide further details regarding this issue. We
recommend your utilizing an alternative application distribution system
and payment method for future orders."
So its like pretty much the account will never be reinstated. I must say i am really disappointed by Google's Help system. There is no way at all of contacting a real person from Google who could help you out in such a scenario. All their contact things respond with automated emails.
Google Play Store Developer account suspended, will I be paid?
I too had my account suspended today, 5 days before pay day. Will I be paid??
They make no mention about this.
Thanks!
yes you should receive payment in full for erything sold prior to suspension. At least I did
Thanks
Thank you so much for the fast reply!!
Do you know if the same is true for Apple?
I was also suspended from being an Apple Developer and am supposed to be paid on Sept 6, 2012.
I do not know, I'm a theme developer so all my iPhone products are sold from my website.

As far as I know, when Google suspends your account, it means your account is CLOSED. At least mine was. Good luck!
sorry for digging up an old thread, but my account just got suspended today based on the third suspension of one of my apps. Has anyone had any luck getting their accounts reinstated? I've submitted an appeal but haven't heard back yet

I never heard back or got my account reinstated. Your best bet is to open a new developer account with a new Gmail Id
Hi
I'm a few days away from my OGWhatsapp app expiring and am desperate to find an alternative as I travel constantly between countries and having two active whatsapp accounts on my phone is an invaluable part of my life.
I've stumbled across some alternatives from this site:
http://faresandroid.blogspot.com.es/2015/01/4.html
Namely, i'm looking at ENWhatsapp and SAWhatsapp. I'm wondering whether these apks are ok as I fear installing any sort of malware or SMS trojan on my Samsung S4 Mini Duos i9192.
Many thanks
I use this one and think it is perfect, no isues in months. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2339647
Thanks. Does it notify you of received messages from both accounts instantly or do you need to switch between accounts to pick up the messages?
Use this xxwhatsapp
https://www.dropbox.com/s/bwqhldcwrdx350w/xxWhatsApp1.15-1.apk?dl=0
It's base on Ogwhatsapp mode last version. But it's still working. It's modified in order to not to be detected by the expiration of the 472 whatsapp server base.
Thanks MuD-GMZ. That seems to work well. Only thing is that I have to switch between the two accounts manually to see if i've received messages. A little bit annoying.
ppsa, is xxWhatsapp safe? I get the same pre-installation access warnings as SAWhatsapp and ENWhatsapp. What particularly worries me is the access the app has to sending and receiving SMS's (see attached screenshot). Not sure this if this normal though considering that I guess the app needs a whatsapp verification code via sms to activate it.
What do you think?
Many thanks!

Exactly. That's why I want to know if any of the other unofficial whatsapps are safe so that i can have two whatsapps active at the same time
In the end I tried ENWhatsapp + other variants and none of them seem to work. I get an error during the installation process that oddly states that '"the app expired on May 18th 2060"!!
I am, though, using a Playstore app called Disa Beta:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.disa&hl=en
It has a strange UI but it allows me to do exactly what I was looking for: have 2 whatsapp accounts simultaneously active on my dual sim phone.
I've used it, but it's not as friendly to use
It works again? Thanks.
I have a Samsung Tab E for sprint. I know this might be not the right place but I couldn't find a section for that particular device. the issue I'm having is it has only one software one it or app which belongs to a Taxi company. when I try to go to settings it tells me security policy prevents access to settings. I also did a Reset for the tablet but same thing I also reinstalled the software on the tablet but came back with the same thing. I can add a guest account and see all the default apps for any samsung tablet but can't root or do anything because the main account is the one that has the one taxi software. Please any ideas how to remove that and be able to root and install Rams and put it in debugging mode ... etc.
Thanks.

Hi,
I woke up early one morning and found when I clicked my phone to check the time, I found this on my screen:
imgur.com/a/V6bQrUi
My phone was set in flight mode all night. I swiped the red X and it was gone.
The link seems to go to a twitter shortlink, which redirects to a blogger site, which again redirects to this shady (russian?) page:
sbs-online.xyz
Anyone have any idea what was going on? Have I been hacked?
An app I had running in the background was a tor browser (alpha) which was used the night before to inspect some glamorous ladies.
Phone: S7 Edge
Android version 8.0.0
Kernel: 3.18.91-13895453-QB19588583

Any help appreciated.

Yeah, it might be that.
Make you change your passwords at least once each year ( best to change each month ) and to don't communicate them (but I assume you already know that.
And if you see an unknown link, don't click it, it may be dangerous
