I recently upgraded from UnNamed GB to SHOstock2 ICS and saw the option to use Samsung Dive. I created a Samsung account from the phone and logged into samsungdive.com but all I get is a message saying "Register your mobile phone now!" "A Samsung Account is required to use the Samsung Dive service." -- I tried going to samsung.com and creating an account with the same credentials there, registered my phone, but still no luck. Does anyone have any ideas and/or has anyone gotten Samsung Dive to work correctly on the SGH-I777?
I did briefly when I flashed one of the international stock ics based roms (forget which). Logged in on my phone, then went to the computer and logged in to get the same message you had.. Logged out on computer and back in, and it worked. the locate feature then didn't work though when I tested.

Samsung dive uses a custom login. Google it to find the login. I'd provide a link but I am not able to right now.

That's interesting. I've logged in/out multiple times on both my phone and the website. Still gives me the same message.

Yes, it should be samsungdive.com/DiveMain.do and that's where I've been logging in.
Might be happening because Shostock removed some of the SamsungDive apks. If you have time, do a backup and try and see if registering/logging in with my ROM (link in sig) fixes it. Dive works for me on my ROM

Sounds plausible. It's certainly worth a shot. I'm downloading your ROM now and I'll update the thread with the results when I have a chance to install/check.

Results: I performed a wipe, then flashed ShishirROM ICS. After booting up and navigating to Settings -> Accounts to add a Samsung account, it informed me there was an update available for the Samsung app. I downloaded and installed the update, and logged into my Samsung account from the phone. I then logged into the samsungdive.com website from my computer and was successfully able to access Samsung Dive and successfully tested the locate and remote ring functions.
Conclusion: Samsung Dive is broken in SHOstock2 ICS (v1.1 as of this writing) and is functional in ShishirROM ICS.

Reporting this in my thread would have been helpful since I don't use that function I didn't know it was not working. Likely it is due to me not having the Samsung apps apk installed.
It will be taken care of for the next update.

That's great, thank you. On a side note I would have reported my findings in your thread but seeing as I spend nearly all my time in IRC instead of on the forums I didn't have enough posts under my belt to go post there. I was going to point it out in IRC when you were online today but you found my thread first. You're just too good.

It isn't because of Samsung Apps. I think one of the "safe to delete" apks is actually tied to Samsung Dive. If you have a record of which apks you removed from Shostock, let me know and I'll be able to tell you exactly which one you needed for Samsung Dive.
From this site here: http://download-apk.blogspot.com/2011/10/apk-default-samsung-galaxy-s2.html
It looks like dive requires:
IMEITracker.apk, MobileTrackerEngineTwo.apk, wipereceiver.apk

Hi guys. I am new in this actions. I recently Install AOKP Rom in my AT&T SG2 but it´s not including the option to create a Samsung account and later activate the options of the app from the web. Do you know if the problem is the ROM, the phone or AT&T block this options. With the stock GB Rom never can made the register. Thanks a lot for your help

If you read through the entire thread it should become clear what the issue was. The phone itself can support Samsung Dive, however the stock version provided by AT&T does not include Samsung Dive. Furthermore, in many custom ROMs the packages required to operate Samsung Dive have been removed as "bloat". Essentially, Samsung Dive will work on some custom ROMs but not others. For instance it doesn't work on SHOstock2 ICS, but it does work on ShishirROM ICS.
Bottom line: If you don't see the option to create a Samsung account, or the website interface just plain isn't working for you, the ROM you're running likely doesn't support Samsung Dive.
Just use Android lost. Download android lost from playstore its free. And has lots of functions. Wipe data,lock phone, alram , GPS, take pics from front or back cam. Etc. All that its free.

That's annoying, I just spent a couple of hours trying to get this to work, I wish I had read this first!
On my Galaxy Note (N7000, international) with ICS, it required the following two services for tracking in Dive:
-Samsung account (com.osp.app.signin)
-Sogtware Update (com.wssyncmldm)
It was safe to remove these:
-Samsung Apps
-Samsung Backup
-Samsung Backup Provider
-Samsung Browser SyncAdapter
-Samsung Calendar SyncAdapter
-Samsung Cloud Data Relay
-Samsung Contact SyncAdapter
-Software Update (com.sec.android.fotaclient)

Hello All,
I am having issues with my email.apk, specifically there is no option to sync tasks although Samsung indicates that there should be. Samsung wants me to do a hard reset...I am thinking that I could try a working email.apk. So if someone who has access to an email.apk (stock or not), I would be ever so grateful if they could post it.
I am attempting to extract it from one of the uploaded .img files, but since I am learning the Android environment (coming from WM6) it is taking me a while to figure out how to do things...although I am learning.
I am currently using Da_G overclocked rom and have already soft bricked my phone a couple of times but have backups of everything and am getting the hang of it.
Thanks in advance!

Hey Mad383Max,
So, I still cannot enable syncing of tasks with my corp Exchange server. The mail and calendar work fine. I am slowing trying to learn how to modify apks to hopefully get this to work. Thanks for you help!
Is it an exchange account? I have set up a few for people in our company. If it is, can you list the steps you are using. We have a manager who works for us named Karen walker. That was what caught my eye on your post.
Nevermind i see now where you say it is an exchange account. No synchronize of tasks. Let me check something.
Sent from a Galaxy far, far away!
Just a quick question. Have you gone into settings/accounts &sync/(your exchange account name here) and checked to make sure that task is checked? I know it is basic but often overlooked.

I did try this and the funny thing is that I do not even have an option for Sync Tasks...only have Sync Contacts and Sync Calendar. When I called Samsung, they said I should have this option. Samsung me to do a factory reset, which I am trying to avoid, and am not sure would really solve anything for the trouble.
I have another Android phone and use Touchdown. I have no problem syncing tasks on that phone.
Thank you for trying to help!
I didn't see this posted and I tried searching.
I don't see the 'More Services' app that's referenced all the time with the GS3 on my stock AT&T GS3. I'm guessing AT&T excluded it but is there a way to sideload it? Is it worth doing?

I'm having the same issue. I have a US Cellular SCH-R530U S3, and the Samsung App wasn't loaded. I found it off the Samsung site, but it says because of my phone or my country, I have limited functions, basically it only does updates. Going to the Samsung App website, it says you have to install the apps from your phone or use Kies. Only problem there is Kies says my phone isn't supported by Kies v.2. This is really getting annoying. I hope someone can help us out here soon...

Which App did you install? I went to Samsungapps.com and downloaded the apk from there. In settings I have option for Push Notifications and Samsung Account. That's it.
It's basically a Samsung app store which is lame but it has Samsung apps under "More Services" category which is nice. Nothing too amazing in there except Photo Editor and Video Editor (both of which are in the Play Store already).
I downloaded it from the Samsung site as well. I was rooted when I installed it, so I used OTA Rootkeeper to undo root and reinstall seeing if that would make a difference, but it didn't help. I'm after the Polaris Office app, which I can't seem to find in the Android Market at all. Haven't tried the Amazon market yet though. Just getting to me now that it won't work for whatever reason. Already not happy they blocked the Remote Control feature here in the US, not this?!?!

Hi all.
I use Slim ROM 2.7 on my S3, but have now lost samsung apps.
The thing I miss is the possibility to use SamsungDIVE to track my phone in case of it gets stolen. For that I need to have an samsung account, and can not get that now.
I have tryed to install samsung apps.apk and samsung apps for nexus.apk, but they need to update when started, and then app dont work anymore.
Any way to get this working?

slim is aosp so unless an app has been ported it won't work as they all need tw framework, however you can get tracker apps on play store, wether the relevant components are in slim I'm not sure, as slim is a stripped Rom for speed etc

Hey forum! Verizon note 2- touchwiz roms
I have played around with most of the touchwiz roms available, and the one thing that I actually use is the samsung account to sync my snotes with my note 8.0. VZW roms have the syncing disabled within the account(thanks vzw). I have been running Cleanrom ACE 4.7 for ever, as its the only ROM that has every feature I need (Sammy account, 5 minute setting for syncing exchange email). I did try to upgrade to Clean ACE 5.0, but the native email sync went to 15 minutes. No good, for me. Push tends to keep the phone awake and affects battery. Really, its the flasher in me that just wants to try new stuff, as there is so much good stuff to play with.
-Basically looking for International based roms that work on VZW, with Samsung account syncing capabilities and 5 minute sync in the native email setting.
-If not, the ability to ad the samsung account to a ROM that doesnt have it that works on VZW.
I feel that I am so close to finding the perfect "newer" rom. Every time I flash a new one, it is just missing one ingredient that I need. Its a vzw vs the world thing- and because of work I am stuck on vzw. Great coverage, just affects the fun with the phone!
Anybody know of a rom(besides clean 4.7) that can achieve what I am looking for?- thanks

hi. I have the exact same problem but im on i9100 I want to use custom roms but they don't have samsung account option. some roms even include samsung link app but its useless without being able to add the samsung account. you will receive an error that it cant find the Samsung account. Please somebody must know how to do this. I understand that its because that part of Samsung software is proprietary and therefore any custom rom cant include it but surely i can do it for myself?
Can you push the APK's manually from ROMs that have them? Idk if it doesn't work, most of the time I hear people try to get rid of samsung rather than inject it, lol.

I figured that would be the way about it but what packages. who knows? ... and yes I feel a deep sense of irony in the fact that im actually seeking out Samsung foulness
indeed I think the only reason im interested is because I can't have it
I don't know. Make a nandroid, wipe rom, install rom with Samsung apps, use tb, find all Samsung apps, back up those, wipe system, restore nandroid, and restore tb.
Otherwise just find a rom that has it, download, change it to a zip extension, extract Samsung files, push apk

That's excellent. Nice work! Did it ad all the Samsung apps, and sync for snote? I know I actually added aosp mail to satisfy my then needed, mail sync settings thru exchange. My company now went to Google apps, and I moved up to the note3 which vzw didn't disable snote sync. Which is a surprise!
