Why did you root the tab S6? Considering there is no way to use substratum as Samsung themes is needed for it to work but it isn't supported on the tab S6 by Samsung.
Adaway works.
Titanium backup works.
Remove bloatware sure.
I haven't rooted yet due to substratum not working and there is only 1 custom rom available.
Freedom. Freedom to do what I want with all those (for me, 214 and counting) privacy-abusing 'system apps' that I don't want tracking me and stealing my personal information.
Search this forum for 'bloatware removal' if interested.

Hi,
I'm looking to get a secured space where I can launch some android apps with my personal data.
That a way I can separate personal data of work data.
I know samsung provide "knox" which is the best solution, but it's not working in others brand device.
Earlier, I had on my Nexus tab, the possibility to use an owner account and to swype to an "guess" account which can also a solution,
but it seems to not be available on recent release of android.
So anyone can give me some solution availabe ?
Cheers?

Which version of Android are you using? I have android n stock and there is the user option if you go to the settings app, there you can find the guest option and other options as well.
Well, I didn't find it on android 6 on my Xperia M4 Aqua.
On my Samsung S6, there're android 7, after many research I dind't find it. This phone is a very good device with knox but after a falling ugrade
the knox count rise to 1, so knox saw that as a security issue and it can't still running on.
So are are you sure it's always remains on android 6 and 7 ?
The Tab S3 is the only samsung tablet which amazon whitelisted for playing 1080p/FullHD on prime video. I unfortunately don't have a S3 tablet and now want to simulate it. See this thread in Tab A Forum.
So could you share your build.prop or device information? For this you can use a build.prop app from google play. A famous good app which also includes such functionality is root essentials. For simulating the device information I currently myself use Device ID Masker which is also available in play store.
Me and the other tab a user really appreciate it .
So apparently I just got the Nearby Share feature (AKA AirDrop for Android).
I woke up, and scrolled down to see that there's a new button for quick toggles. I scroll and I'm shocked to see that the new button is Nearby Share.
It looks odd, however. Its design looks taken straight from a Google Pixel device or any other stock Android rom, very unlike OneUI.
What's even weirder is that Note8 software support was discontinued! As far as I'm aware, the Note8 will never receive another feature update, incl. OneUI 2.
I do remember trying to install some kind of early beta APK for Nearby Share about 6 months ago it seems, but I'm pretty sure it either didn't install at all, or just didn't work, and I uninstalled it. And I go to check now and it appears as a system app!
Info for nerds:
Model: Samsung Galaxy Note8 | SM-950F
Filmware/ROM: Stock OneUI 1.0 on 9.0 Pie | Israel ROM no-carrier
Not rooted, not Knox tripped, no core modifications.
Couldn't test the feature due to COVID-19 and not having any other phone with this feature, although I'm confident it will work.
Also tested to see if it's available on my A10. Nope, nothing.
Any idea why I have the feature? Did Google release it? What happened?
THREAD MOVED TO Q/A PLEASE POST IN PROPER SECTIONS.
So I currently have a Tmobile Note 8 that I just found out that rooting it will prevent me from installing apps like bank apps and using samsung pay. I also have an At&t Note 10 plus for work but I dont want to root it as if something happens how will I explain it to my boss lol. So being that my Note 8 is 3 years old I decided that it's time to upgrade to a new phone. My question is what phone can I buy that I will still be able to install bank apps and keep using google or samsung pay. I'm open to any suggestions
Thank you
David
these guidelines will help
--- find out if rooting is easily available for the phone
--- take a look at extant ROMs and see what are the problems associated with those ... in the latest update and how easy it is to fix them or else live with them
--- broader the user base better it is find support available for various issues
--- coming to your question on banking apps it has nothing to do with what phone you want to buy
if you root that phone and the banking app has various checks and balances to detect root you may not be able to use it. with passage of time banking apps are clamping down on root detection and unfortunately Evasive measures are not sufficient so those fighting for root and wanting to use banking apps ... are on the losing side

I've rooted my t225 tab, thanks to @xbt{thread} and @starkprime74{thread}.
I created a work profile following this guide but I can't remove knox enrollment as insular restricts adb.
Is there a way to create and manage Insular / Island / Shelter work profile on custom os? Is security policy removable or modifiable?
For more reference I'm copying some texts from this thread...
Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite was distributed by our state government for promoting technology in the state. (JUST ELECTION THINGS)
Anyways, the Tabs are coming with Samsung Knox security which cannot be uninstalled, disabled, debloated with adb. The Tabs also come with restrictions by software to change wallpaper of lockscreen / homescreen and probably many other restrictions. (tracking and other stuffs)
This thread is different from the one in this forum providing fix for similar problem. So I request mods not to close it...
