Reading other topics I found this Samsung Dive site, which is supposed to track, lock and even wipe my device remotely.
The site properly identifies my GT 10.1, but when I try to use any function of the site, I receive this message:
If "Remote Controls" is deactivated or you didn't allow "Google's Location Service", the use of this feature is restricted.
I have already enabled Google Location Service under the "Location & Security" menu, but I could not find the "Remote Controls" option anywhere.
Is this option hidden somewhere or is it only available on Samsung phones?
Did you manage to track your device using Samsung Dive?

The option is only available if you have flashed a TouchWiz ROM on your device. Then it is in the options by where you encrypt your tablet.
tried last week it was working fine but now Samsungdive.com is acting up on every browser
Hi All,
I have a phone of Samsung Galaxy A5 with Ultimate GraceUX Rom. I noticed that , the accessibility services (Settings > Accessibility > Services) which control Greenify could not turn on shows message that "Greenify does not support the current system language. The Text-to-speech will be set to null, but this might cause unexpexted behaviour". When I tried to enable the accessibility the message came " unfortunately settings has stopped...
Then I tried to open Text to speech settings, it is always hanging
I installed Google text to speech engine and tried again. But the result is settings not detected Google text to speech.
I googled the issue on visit many websites. But did not find a permanent solution...also i understood that many users face the same issue on Marshmellow devices. If there is any xposed apps for resolve this issue please let me know.
Thanks in advance!

Its been a while since I use android... bot now that i have switched things changed a lot. Im still at the edge if im going to return my note or not because of some annoyances im getting that i cant figure out how to fix it. Hopefully an android guru can help.
FIrst... i need some help why does all my online account signs out. If i didnt get to open them in a significant amout of time. the moment i launch the app it gonna be asking me to log in again. kinda frustrating sometimes esp when im in a hurry that i really want to check something.
Firstly: This is something that happens to all mobile devices. Almost every iOS (iPhone and iPad) users complains about this. Android is a little less aggressive in logging users out of services from apps than Apple does. But, yes, Android does time out after inactivity some login sessions, like banking, for security reasons. Some apps have a "stay logged in" option in its settings or on the login page that you can enable. While other apps choose to allow login sessions to time out. Few these apps will give you a warning about the timeout so you can delay the logout. And few apps may have a time delay without human interaction setting before logging you out (Android has this time delay without human interaction (inactivity) setting before logging you out to the Lock screen). Also some areas in an app, like Account Settings, you may need to log into separately from the main app for (again) security reasons.
What I do about this: I use LastPass (a password manager) auto-fill feature so that I don't need to type in the user name and password all the time. The auto-fill will allow you to choose the user name and password set to use for the app or site, then it auto fills the user name and password. Some apps also may allow you to use your fingerprint to auto login to an app, like a bank app.
Most Android apps should somewhere in the app have the "hamburger" menu (three lines or three dots). Settings/Options for most apps would be found in the Hamburger menu. Once you tapped onto the Hamburger menu look for and tap the Setting or Option name/icon to go to the settings for that app. There you can navigate the settings to see if there is something like "stay logged in" setting to enable. You can logout then go to the login page to see if there is something like "stay logged in" that you can check before you log back in.
Android has a time delay without human interaction (inactivity) setting before logging you out to the Lock screen. To set this go to Settings > Display > scroll down to and click on "Screen timeout". There you can choose from 15 seconds to 10 minutes without human interaction (inactivity) before Android logs you out to the Lock screen.

Well thats the problem... im using LastPass and LastPass itself is logging me out once in a while.
Okay. Let us try to fix this.
Go to LastPass app.
Go to the Hamburger menu (three lines on left top of app)
at the bottom of the Hamburger menu click on Settings click on "Security"
uncheck " Lock LastPass automatically"
There are more login settings to go for LastPass. In the same Security settings:
uncheck "Check session when app is activate"
select "Skip reprompt after login" > choose "Disabled"
select "log out when app in idle" > choose "Never"
check "Allow offline access.
Here you can setup fingerprint to unlock LastPass.
In the Security settings check "Use fingerprint to unlock".
Then follow instructions.
If you never set fingerprint reading for your Note 8, then you will need to go through that setup first.
Now restart LastPass.
The" Allow offline access" helps you prevent logging out when your device loses 4G/LTE connection. This stores your LastPass stuff in your device.
Make sure you setup App Fill in the Settings.
Hope that helps.
Thank you... Good karma to you for giving a little bit of your time to help. I hope this fixes my logging out problems.
:fingers-crossed:
Cool
Samsung Galaxy S9+. Whenever I try to view a picture I get a popup that says, "Allow location to be shown?"
If I tap on it, it goes to google chrome, and brings up a privacy statement from foursquare.
Virus?
No, I have the same on my device. Dont know why they need foursquare to show coordinates on Google maps though...
