Deactivate bixby on android pie - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

Any idea how to deactivate bixby on android pie 9.0

Hello.
I've done it on my phone, first thing i needed to do after i recieved the pie update.
You need to have unlocked the developer menu.
Then you scroll all the way down to the bottom, there you will see a option Background check.
Click that!
After you need to turn off 2 bibxy options.
Bixby voice wake up and bixby voice.
After you have done this, your phone shall not start bixby when you press the bixby button on your phone

hello , i already tried these steps , it didnt work :crying:

Hmm, did you recently update bixby through galaxy apps?
I did not update yet, i see i have 3 updates for bixby there. Maybe thats the reason why it's working for and not for you?

You can use Package Disabled Pro v15.0
Install it then give administrator then tick bixby things.

Or alternatively follow the debloat guide on this forum and use ADB command

My phone can easily got unlock with the new Bixby by saying "open phone", i mean i tried with someone else's voices. So what's the point putting all those iris, finger print, pin and pattern password if someone can easily broke into my phone. Any suggestion to this problem?

The point is to offer those who desire it the ease of use.
There are two things you can do.
Being at least somewhat responsible with your phone will keep someone else from having the opportunity to unlock it via voice. In the 4 years plus I have had voice wakeup/unlock enabled across multiple phones no one has ever unlocked my phone with there own voice.
Toggle off the ability for bixby to unlock/wakeup the phone by voice. I haven't seen anything that says Bixby on our phones has multi-user (or any sort of voice specific recognition) support yet

I used ADB and disabled it. Works like a charm. I'm done with phones for now. When you can't root a phone and have fun whats the use. It's a paper weight to me. I could have a crappy Iphone for all I care. The days of having fun on my S5 are gone . I may downgrade to some phone that I can root so I can have some fun and install some roms. For now I just mess with my ThreadRipper PC everyday by installing custom Windows 10 OS's .

How exactly do you use this ADB? Is it a windows or android app? I'm just trying to get rid of the Bixby functionality altogether.

MT2L03 Carbon 5.1.1 Multiple user (Guest)

I got Carbon successfully installed and love it! But one thing I miss is how easy it is to stop users from browsing my private data when I hand my phone over to them (Emui Privacy Protection, google (in quotes) Hide Your Contact, Album and App)
I figure with Carbon the closest equivalent is the guest account?
If it isn't, please clue me in, but if it is, my phone is limited to one user account when I can't force fw.max_users=4 to stick.
pm get-max-users keeps going back to 1 after every reboot.
Does anyone know of an alternative locking functionality to that emui awesomeness I had before? Or is there a way to make guest work?
Sorry to make y'all google above, I'm a newbie and am not allowed to add url's to this post

The URL that comes up when you google "Hide Your Contact, Album and App" is too long to do that, but it comes up instantly with the exact results that I'd paste anyway.
I just wanted to illustrate the feature that I am missing and wish I could make work in Carbon. Thinking about reverting to emui just for that feature, but if I did that I'd feel so inadequate, having worked so hard to get twrp and carbon installed.

Yeah, what I need though is more like what's available in the emui stock os, where you can lock your phone, unlock it with an alternate pin, and the temporary user can't open any but the apps you specify.
Rebooting to a separate rom is too much trouble for handing the phone off for 30 secs.
Have you seen the emui privacy protection feature? Pretty cool.
I'll probably just use screen pinning; not quite as good, but it works.
You could use stock ROM most of the time when you know you might have to share the phone, and make Carbon your secondary to use only when you won't be likely to need to share phone.

That would be one solution.
Since I posted this two days ago, I've experiment with the screen pinning tool, and also I DID successfully add another user account, so switching users should be a good solution.
You'll have to forgive me; I work in IT Security. One just doesn't hand over one's information to another user!!
Isn't there a Carbon thread. Maybe ask Carbon questions in there.
There are app lockers out there like this. What you do is choose an app you want to lock (for example, Gallery) and then you choose when to lock it and how to unlock it.

Enter Lockscreen Password after 3 Days

Really Huawei? my password is something like this:

If you use your Fingerprint-Sensor, you need also a password for it, right?

Thats also on oneplus phones, at 2-3 days as well. Is just simply a security measure for some of us which are bad at remembering passwords/pins. I think this is a very good thing to not forget your passwords or pins

Big mistake buying this phone. Don't buy this phone. Ridiculous we cannot eliminate this pin code when we already use fingerprint protection.
---------- Post added at 06:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:49 PM ----------
First, know this. You can remove the password, however, you will also remove all other protection, like fingerprint id. etc. I find this very suspicious.
Go to settings - Security & privacy - Screen lock & passwords - Password
Enter your password
Go to password > and enter None
You now have zero protection
I seriously think that it should be possible to disable the "forced" 3-day password/pin code while still having the fingerprint reader security and possibility to unlock using the password/pin code.
The 3-day forced password/pin HAS to be optional.
Best Regards
Me
Change the password to a more easy one...
EGOiST1991 said:

To not have to be surprised when your phone ask it? Why put a password if you do not want to use it? I have the same kind of password, and enter them for every account I have on the web, each different, not a big problem with a physical keyboard cause a 16 letter/digit/symbol password can be done in less than 5sec. But for the phone, a gesture pin with the path set to invisible do the thing, you can do pretty f*cked up gesture rather than just un L or a W like majority of people do. And not be bothered when asked the pass. Finger print is not a secure way to unlock the phone anyway (it whould just be a authentification, not a pass), so putting a strong password as not real meaning here.
All that drama....just use 1234 pin and make your life easier
What if I have a medical emergency and I am not able to type any password? I just want to put my finger and then touch the icon of my medical care.
Is this something that only happens on this particular build??? My mate 10 (non-pro) has never done what you are saying here? I use a fingerprint for access with a PIN to unlock on boot up, but I have never been asked for a PIN/Password every three days. Now my phone has not yet received Pie...so I am not sure if that is the cause. Someone also said in a previous post that this happens on OnePlus also??? I have a brand new OnePlus 6 (not T) running on Pie and this does not happen on this phone either? Something is not right here.
I have the same thing both on Oreo and on Pie, it's maybe region related but not big deal for me.
damn what you are you hiding in that phone with this kinda password??? nuclear launch codes??
give yourself a break.
anyways ...good post.... looking forward for a solution. good day

Stock S9+ with Google Assistant instead of Bixby

Hi guys,
Recently I bought an S9+ and so far I'm loving it. The only issue I have is with this stupid Bixby who can't do anything beside telling me jokes and making reminders.
So, I've been looking far and wide on how to replace, not just disable, Bixby. The post on debloating is great, but it won't let me have Google Assistant answer when I press the Bixby button.
In conclusion, is there a guide on how to replace Bixby with GA at all? Or at least a modified ROM, because even if I like the stock version of Android (Had a moto Z3 before), I got used to the Samsung Experience.
Thank you!

You can use a different launcher such as rootless pixel launcher or Nova to get the feed on the left, but not sure you can set it to Google feed if you're just using Samsung experience (I may be wrong)

Well I can cherry pick that article too, "And what they have been working on looks impressive enough that it could lift Bixby out of obscurity and give*Google, Amazon, Apple and Microsoft*a run for their money. It also uses artificial intelligence to write algorithms capable of performing far more complex tasks, such as booking hotel rooms or buying flowers, all from commands that users speak into their phone, their fridge, their TV or any other of the 1 billion Samsung devices that by next year will be running Bixby. But it's not always the first to market that is the ultimate winner,"

Could. Yep. And it could somehow cause aliens to come down and murder us all. But that's hardly a reason to suggest that Bixby is a worthy competitor NOW, which is what you're doing.

EMUI 9 and Google work profile Problem

Does anyone uses the work profile? cause everytime that i update the EMUI, the work profile stops recognize the security pattern. Last night before i update, i just changed to PIN number to test, same thing... it keeps telling me that the number is wrong after the update is finished. i have to delete the work profile and set up all again.

The is no option to set New Work profile, when you are locked. Only modifying sync properties, accounts inside work profile. You can disable work profile, but you will never able to enable it back.
Can You kindly demonstrate by screenshot how can you create New profile, while old still exist (even without profile lockdown)? I do not see such options.

I have to use Microsoft Company Portal for my working email, which create a google working profile. It has the same issue every time I update the Huawei software. Here is my workaround:
1. Go to Settings - Users & accounts - (Go to the bottom) Remove work profile. Be careful, at this stage, do not uninstall the Company Portal or change anything.
2. Open Company Portal app - choose delete the current profile (or something like that) and re-enroll your device.
If everything used to work, it should work now. The key is don't uninstall the Company Portal app, otherwise you may probably need to go through the lengthy App launch/Permisssions/Administrative privilege things to make it work.
Regarding who to blame on this issue, (1) the compatibility of Huawei (but since apparently US is banning US companies from working with Huawei, it may get worse); (2) Microsoft ( I really had bad experience with their company portal app and their recent software updates (aka office updates) in general; (3) Google? The working profile thing is not very intuitive. When download a pdf from my working email, I cannot even read it without having to install an app withing the working profile.

I recommend just installing a third party launcher instead. I too found no easy way to remove it.
it's a fixed position widget starting from Android 8
sadly the only way to remove it is third party launcher ...
I had this problem too. Like said above, the problem is solved immediatly with a third launcher. I've taken Nova Launcher and it works perfectly.
Otherwise, if you don't want to install another launcher, you can try this method : https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/
For a complete lists of your package, you can use the app : "App Inspector" on the playstore.
I did this for all google app. For the search bar, it didn't work fully but it was better than without this tip. I read that, for some people, it worked fully.
Hope you will succeed to remove it!

I saw some guides but I didnt try to root this phone because I dont have a need for it, especially since the phone is already stock Android 9 where you can simply use adblocking DNS from within the Network settings.
Im generally satisfied with it, but proximity and finger sensors tend to misbehave sometimes, maybe its too sensitive to dust or dirt, I dont know.
My phone has V11 firmware, no updates available through the update manager, but there should be V13 available.

yeah it's true that you can replace a lot of root's features with third app's with this phone but it will be cool for me to have full access for more fun! Like totaly uninstall some apps useless for me, more customisation etc etc...
But it's really cool like it is now!
With mine : I don't have trouble witj proximity sensors but fingers sensors react weirdly, indeed. I think your hypothesis is the answer : it's too sensitive to dust and dirt.
The light sensor is a little bit weird too, but I think it's due to an android feature : user'shabits learning. Weird at the beginning, but works good after.
In my case, I have the V13 firmware (install directly via Cubot's website). I don't think it will be more update later...
One question : Do you know if this phone works well in USA? I see that it has some US's band so I think so , but I would like a confirmation
I received message from Cubot support that there are no significant or important changes in V13, so I'll leave it at that.
I also noticed phones behavior and sensitivity of sensors has changed over time, maybe it's that habit learning you mentioned..
I'm in Europe, so I can't say if it works in US. Shouldn't be too hard to find out.
I'm generally satisfied with this phone, as I tend to drop it a lot (relatively speaking) and it holds together well, and the software support+performance is satisfactory as well.
@urpi_ > Thanks for the feedback Happy to share with a Quest's owner, there aren't many
Like you, I've dropped it sometimes and the shakeproof it's real! I haven't test yet the waterproof. I will do it this summer
In very good points, I found GPS, Wifi and bluetooth respond very quick and well!
For the GPS, even in a remote location, the Quest fixes very quick
And the blutooth works very well with my earplug, even in running.
For the price, it's a very good smartphone, I'm happy with it too
Since when do you have this phone? I have it for 5 months nearly.

That's one of the reasons I would like to root it. Like you, this functionnality annoys me, although this button is very usefull . It's too bad that we can't configure it like we want and with a root, it would be possible.
For now on, I don't find a tip for changing this long press function. Maybe someone will read this thread and will have an solution
If I found something , I will share it here

Yeah, I have used Key Mapper ( https://github.com/sds100/KeyMapper ) to change normal press (no root required) but I haven't found a way how change long-press behavior. Perhaps it's possible with Key Mapper too, and I just didnt find it?? Maybe.
@urpi_ > Thank you for the share, I will try it and search too if we can do something for long press configuration!
But for the normal press, you can already choose any application in settings. So, what does keymapper moreover?
Otherwise, about the fingerprint sensor:
I re-saved my fingerprints but differently :
Without perfectly clean up the sensor, like "out in the pocket" 's mode ( ) and with the "soft" part of the finger.
Before I saved it with the very extremity of the finger. This time, I used this "soft" part (a little bit under the top extremity of the finger) and with the finger kept flat.
It works pretty better now! Maybe it could make it work better for you too
Im pretty satisfied with the fingerprint sensor now, but yeah it can be probably fine-tuned to work better with this phone, like you said.
You can choose any application for normal (side-key) press, but I wanted to map it to something other than applications.
I used KeyMapper to make it a Pause/Play key for media.

So I tried this app and I think I found for the long press mode.
When you are on the window for creating a new macro, clik on "more" and then choose "long press"
After,you click on "record trigger" and push the button you want to configure, then choose the action you want.
I tried for launching an app, it worked well
But I tried for togglethe torch and it crashed the app. ANd then, the app didn't work at all, I had to reinstalled it
Hope it will help you
By the way, can you tell me what does "Data protection" setting do exactly? I see it under Security & location - Advanced menu.
I know it asks for a security entry pattern, but what for? Phone is supposed to be encrypted by default.
Yeah good question! I wonder too and I never enter a pattern for this. I think it is an android protection by default, but there are another protection too. By the way, I think there is too much protection
Other subject : I had a security upate nearly by september, I found the fingerprint and thbe camera respond much better. DO you feel that way too?

No update available for my phone. Still at February security update from 2019.
Strange, maybe you should visit the official website? If you do this, be careful : I've done the update via this way because the direct OTA way didn"t work. If the OTA's way is just an update; via the official website, it's a total reset, so, backup before doing this way
