I own a samsung galaxy note 3 Sm n9006. As some of you know, there is no google play there. I rooted my phone and I confirmed by running the program root checker. I tried downloading the zip file of gapps that suits my android version. However, when I go to the power mode, it keeps on getting restarted. When I released those buttons it turns on like how it does normaly. I dont know if this helps, but there is a logo saying google play store, but whenever I try to open it, I fail to do so. Please help me, and I am not that much of a computer wizzard.
Hello.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 i9500. I got it about 2 years ago. About a year after purchase I rooted the phone to install a backup software, but I did not know that rooting would disable software updates and when I found out that S4 had gotten the Lolipop update but my phone wouldn't show anything for two months, I decided to install the "original" Lolipop from Samsung. I found it on a website which I do not remember anymore.
Well here's where the problem starts - Apparently my phone was from Korea and it was imported to India. As a result of me installing an OS made for India on a Korean phone, the SIM wouldn't work and the OS ran very crappily. I got the SIM unlocked by an operator but the OS just sucks really bad. It gets stuck very often, apps close randomly and they behave as if they have been relaunched every 5-10 mins. Sometimes if I'm playing music the player will stop mid-track and I have to press play again. The menu and homescreen also do the same thing, keep behaving as if they have been relaunched every few minutes or every time I unlock the screen.
Any idea what I can do to fix my phone? I'm ready to go back to a previous version of android if that means a smooth, non-annoying experience.
Check your actual version of the stock rom from sammobile.com. Download the correct stock rom and re flash through Odin
Thanks, but I just ended up installing CyanogenMod and gotta say I'm more than happy with it :3
Hi. I have a Canadian Galaxy S7 Edge running stock Nougat and I attempted to install the CF-Auto-Root. It booted up properly and Odin did not give me any problems. And for some reason my phone was erased. (I know that it shouldn't though). However, when I use a root-checking app, it tells me that I am not rooted. whereas when I try to setup KNOX, it says that my phone is rooted. Can anyone help?
Thanks
P.S.
I also got this error message after booting up and setting up my phone.
Hi everyone!
I'm getting random reboots on my Galaxy S5 Duos (SM-G900FD), and it's getting really frustrating. I feel like smashing the phone against a wall!
I'll explain the situation in detail:
- It is a hard reboot, and occurs at any time (gaming, texting, lying in my pocket, etc...)
- ROM is the latest Samsung original (Marshmallow)
- It is rooted, Xposed is installed and also have TWRP
- Tried to re-install ROM without reset to factory settings
- After installing an App that hibernates non essencial services, the rebooting occured less often
- Tried to pull "/proc/last_kmsg" but adb says that it does not exist
- Tried to switch batteries with my wife's Galaxy S5 (SM-G900F)
- My wife's Galaxy S5 is rooted as well, with the same Xposed version and modules, as well as TWRP, but this does not occur on her S5.
I could try a lot of random moves, but I prefer a more sensible approach.
So, if someone can at least point me in the right direction, I would really appreciate.
Thank you!
Hello everyone. I have a samsung galaxy s7 edge (SM G935F) and i recently received the android 8.0.0 from samsung. Downloaded and installed directly via the cellphone.
But after updating i am getting this internet/connection drop issues a lot.
Now a lot of times when im connected in wifi or using the 4g mobile internet, im getting a lot of internet lag/drops. Example: at whatsapp, when i sens a message, the clock appears and only after a little rhe time the message is send.
Example 2: at facebook, somerimes it lags and takes too long to load the content (same happening in instagram). Or at clash of clans, it is showing that symbol of internet issue.
Besides those internet bugs/lags, the android 8.0.0 is ok.
I already did a factory reset yesterday via the phone, and saved the files with smart switch. But the problem persists. I also checked and my wifi internet and my mobile internet are ok.
Does anyone knows how to fix this issue? Is there a newer version of the ROM, maybe? Or if not, is ir possible to downgrade to android 7 again (really wouldnt like this option but....)?
If anyone could help that would be great. But for the record:im really newbie at android stuffs....if you can help, please could you explain step by step?
Thanks everyone

I have the same phone but in my region the OTA 8.0 upgrade didn't arrive yet so I took a french official 8.0 for SM-G935F and installed it. After about one week I can tell it works like a charm and even better than before with the Marshmallow firmware. I don't see a solution with your specific connection problem but I can try to find and bring you the OS that I downloaded and used if you want.

NO, i can't seem to remember where i downloaded the firmware from, but I am sure it wasn't from Sammobile because it take ages to download. But I still have it on my laptop so I'm uploading the .rar on mediafire.
All you have to do:
Get Odin
Get the ROM (extract it separately, you should see the AP, BL, CP, CSC components)
Cause I am a new user on the forum it doesn't allow me to post external links so let's get around that:
type in w w w. mediafire . com /file / tx3676bj71vz17f/G935FXXU2ERD5_G935FOXA2ERD5_BTU.zip (copy paste and remove all the spaces)
Activate USB debugging (google that, you can get it in 30 secs)
press and hold power+home_button+volum_down then press volume_up when it asks you to confirm that you know what you're doing.
Open Odin, you should see that your phone is recognized (in the top left rectangle it shows COM something.
Add the AP, BL, CP and CSC from the folder to Odin by pressing the specific buttons and then selecting them, wait between them if necessary, it will tell you.
Make sure re partition is not ticked in the options tab.
after everytihng is ready, click start and wait some time.
When it is done you should see PASS in green and your phone restarting.\
From there you just have to configure your new OS. Bare in mind that you should know the google acc and password that you had on the phone before, else it will get FRP locked.
Hope this helps, If you have any questions feel free to ask.
