[Q] Samsung Apps not working - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I've been using my SGS2 for few months and I never was able to use Samsung Apps. Whenever I try to download something nothing happens. In fact there is a quick flash with some message, but it's so fast that I'm unable to read it. Today I upgraded my phone to latest branded orange LPH rom (ICS 4.0.4) and Samsung Apps is still not working. I thought that maybe I need to login to Samsung Apps, but when I try to do so I get following error:

What's that application manager? Any ideas how to make Samsung Apps working on my phone? I prefer to omit full wipe if possible.

Goto to settings - about , Samsung account
Ps: I'm not sure about the steps,because the last time i fully used stock ROM was March but you will find it (Samsung Account) somewhere in settings.

[Q] Samsung Apps Update !!! 07/07/11

Any one getting samsung apps update on their phone
when i try installing it.. fails.. any suggestions..i tried clearing cache and deleteing data and also unistalling previous updates.. still no go
What kind of updates ? Are you referring to the Samsung Apps aplication or to a certain app inside the Samsung Apps ? I updated my Samsung Apps with no problems first time when i logged into it when i bought the phone.
Edit: Yeah, i got it just now. From 2.5.039, i updated to 2.6.018 with no problems. Downloaded the 3.9 MB and installed it easily.
Samsung Apps Aplication.. When i start it it downloads UNAService Update but fails to install it
I am on VR 1.4 rom

Yeah, first you get UNAService.Worked for me, i'm on Vodafone branded KE5, no root. Try through wi-fi or through phone's data connection if you tried through wi-fi already.
Might be affected by custom rom or root.
I have rooted GS2 with Lite'ning ROM and mine failed on the UNAService just now. I will try via wifi at home later.
tried on wifi ..didnt work..will try on data now..could be due to custom rom ??
Hmm, might be cause of a process you froze ? Looks like that UNAS thing updated com.sec.android.app.samsung.
everything defrost..tried on wifi/data..still no g0
I had that problem and to do the update I did the following:
1 - made the update and Samsung apps updated without problems but UNAService failed to install
2 - made a backup of com.sec.android.app.samsungapps.una with Titanium backup
3 - deleted the file com.sec.android.app.samsungapps.una with Titanium backup
4 - restarted Samsung apps, and its working fine and updated to latest version
I hope it helps.
Hi after delete file using titanium backup samsung apps work but dont want to update :/ can you paste here your una file ? I have una 2.0.9
I thought they updated these through the roms only. Who uses the crap anyways.
I have the same problema on VR 2.0
i have found out through testing that this problem occurs when using custom roms.. using stock + root has no problems..
samsung apps comes handy when samsung releases firmwares for cameras, etc or minor updates..also some premium/paid apps are at times available for free ..so i wudnt say its that much of a crap..
UNAService not installing on S2 GT-I9100
Hi guys,
I've just purchased the Samsung S ii (i9100) and I'm trying to open Samsung Apps. Just to make things clear, I have the manufactures ROM without root.
Upon opening Samsung Apps, it tries to update (version on the phone is 2.5.024). It firstly downloads the UNAService and tries to install. It then complains "Application not installed". I press done and it downloads and installs the "Samsung Apps" update "successfully" (to 2.6.114).
Now when I open "Samsung Apps" it says it needs to update. So i press of and for a split second it starts the UNAService download then it all shuts and I'm back at my home screen. Nothing I can do...
If anyone can help me as to why this isn't working on a stock S2 without root... Seems like it should be the most likely scenario for manufacturers software...
Thanks in advance for any info

[Q] Help with galaxy tab 10.1

Hi all,
Sucks this has to be my first post but my galaxy tab p7500 is stuck in a boot logo loop and I have no idea how to fix it. I rooted my tablet and installed a custom rom and everything was working fine, I then decided I liked the original honeycomb 3.2 more so I proceeded to recover the backup that I had made before installing the custom rom. I cleared all data and the cache and ran the backup, it installed the backup and I rebooted, but now its suck on the samsung galaxy tab 10.1 logo. I can still access the recovery/download menu but dont know what to do, can someone help??
much appreciated
Do you have any other roms on the tablet sd-card? Then install that so that you at least have a booting tablet. Then find a stock-rom that you can install.
Honeycomb Stock Rom
Hi
This is my first post so please bare with me, i have a GT-P7500 galaxy tab and upgraded it to ICS 4.0.4, every worked perfectly except the google play store if i connected with 3G i could search and browse but couldnt download anything, but if i connected to my wifi router could do everything perfectly, which doesnt really work for me as im on the road alot and need programs and updates to be downloaded, does anyone know how i can revert back to honeycomb stock standard?

[Q] Help with Galaxy S3 softbricked by android update

Hello everyone,
I'd be grateful if anyone can help me out with a problem I'm currently experiencing with my Galaxy S3.
The phone basically won't boot. It powers on fine, goes through the custom logo (for my network provider, Three) and then goes into the Samsung logo. There it stays, unable to boot.
What I think has caused this is that Three notified me of an over-the-air update to Android 4.3 from Android 4.1.2. I downloaded the update, and ran it, but I don't think it completed successfully and so the phone's firmware is probably now corrupt.
I sadly didn't take a backup and would really like to get the phone working again without losing text messages, apps, app data and so on.
I've looked at various options. I have the correct stock ROM/firmware for the phone (H3G version of 4.1.2). I could use Odin, or I could probably install Clockwork Recovery and use that. But I don't know exactly what I'm doing and in particular, how to keep my app data.
Any advice greatly appreciated.

You have to install the Google Apps as a separate install when dealing with most non stock roms. Surely the guide you were looking at mentioned that...? Weird that you are having issues with Sms as it's rare roms have that trouble. Which messaging app are you using? Your contacts aren't there because you wiped your phone, installed a new operating system, and didn't install the Google apps to resync your account. I'm confused on why you're surprised by that... Kies doesn't work on non stock roms and is a much inferior tool vs Odin. Also, didn't you do a nandroid backup before installing Slim? If so, you could just restore that and you would be back to the previous version in like 10 minutes. If you didn't...well, you weren't looking at the right guides then. I think Slim is 10x better than stock, personally but depending on the phone and version, there can be some minor issues.
I think that Whatsapp doesn't recognize your phone because of the custom DPI. If you set that to stock value, it should work.
