Snapchat not working on S6 Edge+ (SM-G9280) - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all, my SM-G9280 still cannot log into Snapchat. I've rooted the phone (since it doesn't come with Google Play Services). The android vers is 6.0.1 and Baseband is G9280ZCU2BPK1.
My phone is Chinese so it does not come with Google Play Services, and I have to root to get it.
I've tried :
1) RootCloak + Cydia Substrate. Doesn't work for some reason.
2) Xposed + Root Cloak. Installing the xposed framework crashes my phone and causes a bootloop. Recoverable by flashing the stock ROM and resetting phone though.
(EDIT: Xposed + Root Cloak does work now, I've added Snapchat to the list of root-hide apps, but it still does not allow me to log into Snapchat.)
3) Unrooting and Rerooting. Unrooting removes Google Play Services along with the root and Snapchat does not work if Google Play Services is not present.
I would try Titanium Backup with Snapchat except I don't have a second android device avaliable.
Is there any other solutions that I can do to log into Snapchat?

Can someone help me? Please?

Bump, can someone please help me?

Bumped again... Please someone help me with this issue.

First off why would removing root remove Google play services? This is not how this works. From the looks of it you have a china based device that didn't come with Google stuff installed. Take care of that first. Then root after.

Yeah, I have to root in order to get Google stuff.
As far as I know for my device there is no way to get Google Play Services other than rooting.

Well then I would root get the Google stuff and unroot. As they are not connected you should be able to pull it off.

I tried that. But as soon as I unroot Google Play Services dissapears and when I unroot using SuperSU it causes a bootloop, which is solvable by flashing the custom ROM,
So that doesn't work. Or am I doing something wrong with the unrooting process?

You are doing something wrong along the way. If you have a custom rom then you should have a custom recovery as well. At That point all you have to do is flash the rom and a gapps package. Dont flash any root apps. If they are built into the rom then that may be a bit harder to deal with.

I don't have a custom rom...
The way I got Google Play Services and Google Play to work is I rooted, then used a third-party app (Not OpenGApps) to install Google Play Services, the framework, and everything else.
I still have my stock rom, it's just rooted and has google play services that's all.

The fix is easy. Just grab another phone that is rooted but without Xposed Framework, you install SC and login. After login do a backup of the app with Titanium backup then move the backup to you Note 5/Galaxy s6+ and do a restore of the app's data (data has log in token). That's all ?
Now, if you don't own another phone then you have have to install stock ROM, then log in to your SC using the stock ROM without any modding (rooting) yet. After login root the phone and do a backup with Titanium backup. You can restore your Login data anytime after doing the backup. That's all.
I think that the problem with the log in may be because of the Knox counter in the ROM being triggered. Hope it's works for you. I use this exact method to fix the log in issue.

Read the OP.
I don't have another phone to do Titanium Backup.
When I install Stock ROM, Google Play Services and Framework is not installed therefore Snapchat doesn't work.
Would clearing EVERYTHING, then flashing Stock ROM, then getting OpenGApps help? Because if so then I can do that except i do not know how to setup OpenGApps...

Okay, so I got TWRP then flashed TWRP, then got OpenGApps to get Google Play Services.
I then unrooted but it took away Google Play Services and everything as well. I can't login to Snapchat.
Am I still doing something wrong here?

Bump, posted this on a couple of other forums and no one has replied with a solution
Someone help solve please

Bump.

Bump, I've been able to somehow install Xposed and root cloak. I've added Snapchat to the list to hide the root from the app, but it still won't let me log in.

Bump.

Bump.

did you ever get it to work? ?

[Q] Mistakenly Uninstalled Google service Framework

While installiing "google play services" I got some error 919 "Incompatible with other applications(s) using the same shared user ID", for which i googled for solutions which said to uninstall Google service framework(GSF) then, install play services and then again install GSF.
when i tried to uninstall the GSF via "titanium backup" i was unable to do so. Hence i thought of converting it to an user app ,then take a backup of apk file and then uninstall it. While doing so, it was taking very much time, so i rebooted my phone, after which i did not found GSF in my apps list.
Now i'm not able to have an access to play store.
Please help ASAP
My GSF version was 4.0.1- 212031
What phone? What update? Custom rom? It's best to pull the app from something for your phone just to make sure there are no other issues.

If, android version, then it is 4.0.4 and I have no idea why it shows 4.1.1
Now is there any way to access Play Store..or is there any alternative to GSF..??

the lack of information makes it really hard to help you in any way.
First of all, there's actually no root for MM.
Dirty or clean flash?
Which version did you flash?
how did you flash it?

yeah.....no. I know it's pretty convenient to keep all the app- and systemsettings and stuff, but dirty flashing MM over LP is going to mess up your system very likely. Even if you wipe cache and stuff, it just doesn't run any stable at all. So do yourself a favour and install clean.
Also, before installing TWRP and Custom Kernel, you might wanna try if your problem already exists with stock kernel and recovery. I didn't know there was any option for root w/ unlocked bootloader, so i can't say anything about the stablity of it.

Problem occurs both stock and custom,well I'll try wipe and flash it.
If you haven't wiped yet, try this. I dirty flashed from LP to MM using the FTF and this is how I got the play services to stop asking for an update so it might work for you too.
1) Uninstall updates for Google Play Services and let it revert to the copy in /system
You'll need to make sure you don't have Google Play Services listed as a device administrator first (android device manager, smart lock, Gmail on exchange, etc.)
2) Clear app data for both Google Play Services AND the Play Store app (this is crucial!)
3) Load up Play Store again and let it update Google Play Services.
It may take a few times forcing a Play Services update but it should work.

Asking for assistance from some1 with rooted bluestacks/snapchat

Hi, I have a galaxy s7 snapdragon from AT&T that is rooted. If you do not know snapchat no longer works on rooted phones with or without xposed. So in order to get snapchat working correctly on my phone I must use bluestacks to login and then backup snapchat's app data using titanium backup then put the Titanium backup files on my phone and restore snapchat. I used to be able to do this as I had a working rooted bluestacks that allowed me to, I do not have that anymore as i deleted it thinking I wouldn't need it anymore (boy was I wrong). Any workarounds not using that method do not work on my phone because of the way it is rooted (Engineering Kernel) and the way xposed is installed (not uninstallable without using flashfire and messing some things up). I have tried countless rooted bluestacks where either snapchat won't let me login in or titanium backup is stuck on "Detecting SU and Busy Box" even though root checker says I have root access. If anyone could please help me out by finding a working bluestacks with titanium backup on windows 10 with me being able to open snapchat before bluestacks is rooted so I can login, then root bluestacks keeping snapchat data. Or a way to hide xposed and root using xposed or some app so snapchat will work on my phone. And lastly maybe if someone who has the working bluestacks could just login to my snapchat, back it up using TB, and send me the restore files. Any solution is greatly appreciated!!
Cheers!

Fix snapchat on custom rom

I have lineage os android 7.1.1 on my galaxy core prime ve(sm-g361h) and installed snapchat and cant login plz what can i do .
Are you rooted? If so, that's what's stopping you.
A root error will tell you that your login failed. If it doesn't say it failed, then something else is the problem. I suggest using Magisk for root since you can hide superuser from being detected.

Is it a connection problem? What error is snapchat giving?
If it's connection, make sure you have internet access allowed for snapchat or something (do you have a firewall?)
From my memory of trying to login to snapchat and the whole root issue was it failed at the verifying device phase. You could also download a safetynet checker app from Google Play to see if you're passing safetynet to help ensure everything is playing nicely.
you could always login on another device then restore it onto your main device.
You will have to use a rom that doesnt have root by default. You then have log in and then flash the root. Mind you that you won't be able to log in on any other device without refreshing from scratch.

well that sucks, because my rom comes default with root. i knew it was about root and once all apps was done downloading i unrooted with supersu and snapchat still didn't work. i hope there will be a way around this.
Not sure if anyone is still having issues with the snapchat log in, but i was able to make it work by using this method.
For some reason, I had no issues logging in with my old Galaxy S4, which is rooted.
So
1. I used Titanium Backup and made a backup of the Snapchat app and settings.
2. copied them to an sd card.
3. inserted the sd card into my current Note 4 unlocked, rooted, running LineageOS 14.1.
4. restored the Snapchat backup on the Note 4.
5. Opened the app and was already logged in and have since updated the app and still all is good.
I have not logged out, so I don't know if that will prevent me from logging back in. I keep a copy of that backup on my sd card just incase.
Hope this might work for others that may still be trying.
Thank you
You're amazing

Just for anyone who may still need this: Use magisk or another application which can hide root from certain apps, and if you have exposed installed (or EdExposed) just go to settings and you will find a toggle to bypass SafetyNet restrictions
Then you should be able to use snap like normal...

Difficult Play Store problem

// I fixed it. If you have the same problem visit my guide: [Guide] How to fix any broken Play store
Hello everyone reading this!
I hope you can help me with my problem.
My problem is the following thing:
I was having some problems with my play store so i wanted to reinstall it.
So uninstalled Google Play Store with root but the problem is that i couldn't install it again.
(And i only make backups of my boot partition because i don't have so much space to backup data in twrp.)
When i try to install play store again with the latest apk of it then it just crashes. I also tried installing it as system by moving it to /system/app with the correct permissions but still not working. And i also tried it on /system/priv-app but it just disappears there.
I found out that if i use a old version of the play store (9.8.07) then it doesn't crash right away. But i still cannot use it properly. It crashes when trying to install something.
I also found out that if i try to uninstall something with this old version then it doesn't crash right away but it says "uninstalling" forever.
So i think it may be that play store didn't get the permissions that it needs?
I tried so many things but i just don't know how i can fix it. I don't want to do a factory reset or something like that.
Please help me. I just want my good old play store back.
Edit:
I can't even use YouTube. It doesn't allow me to use it without play store. This is much worse than I thought it would be.
My paid apps, substratum, everything i paid for is just broken now.
(SM-N920C, Samsung Galaxy Note 5, Nougat 7.0 Stock Rom, Rooted with Magisk, Xposed is installed, TWRP is installed)
