Wow I was actually not expecting that!

There have been apps that got updated with Zenui 4.0 on google play before but the firmware containing the Zenui 4.0 is out. On factory reset, it downloads Google Keep but Quick Memo is still there. (thought the app was dead as it didn't get the new look).
The radio icon got removed from the drawer. The camera, sound recorder and weather look like the old icons though. Maybe they didn't get updates either.

The version for the tab does not even let me download it, I have tried the remote but it looks wrong and I want the video streaming function as this is one of the main reasons for buying it.
The Smart View-app isn't ready for the tabs yet.
Samsung issued a statement, when they first launched SmartView for the SGSII, that 8.9 and 10.1 tablets will be able to download the app in the late summer.. So just be patience (like me! )
I tried a downloadable .apk version on my 10.1 in combination with the d8000...
The remote function works, but when trying to switch to watch tv it crashes.
Then i found a ported version, which should work on more android devices.
That compatibility i can't check, but still the same crash on the 10.1...
i thought Samsung said they would put it on the 10.1 and 9.8 by default...
One of the main reasons, for bying it...

Have you even bothered to read my post right before yours?
Samsung never said it would be on the tab from the get-go.. They promised to release it "after the summer".. And seeing how vague that statement is (doesn't even tell if they mean summer in Miami, Stockholm, Capetown or Sidney), it's pretty safe to say that they're still in keeping with their promise..

Nope, no news yet.
I wrote with a Samsung-dude last week, and all he could say is that they're still planning for at september/early october-release
See here for the download link and information about the app.

Hi,
I want to try the Smart View-Tab version on my Galaxy Note because the non-Tab version has low resolution.
Can any Tab owner share the new version of the Smart View-Tab app here ?
the apk please...
Also we have a discussion about this on the Note section:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1420918&page=2
I'd appreciate if anyone could share this app from their Tab 10...
Smart view Tab:

thank you.
but I get a package corrupt error.
can you check if it's not corrupted while uploading ?
package corrupt
Downloaded and installed here without any problems...
I've got a Samsung 5700 .. doesn't work though (even though I can activate network remote in my TV menu...) Anyone any ideas? What does my TV mean by Network Remote then?!
any news ?
can anyone else upload the Tab app from their Tab 10 ?
Did you try in the market? Both Samsung remote apps (tablet/non tablet version) show there?
"Samsung" as the query?
They don't list the "Tab" version to the Galaxy Note.
Don't know if this is what you are looking for, I use it to control my 7000 series Samsung LED on my Tab 10.1. For some reason I don't get the dual view as an option but I have read others are having the same issue. Works fine for me, full screen, as the other one is really small when it loads.

[Q] Android L

Hi guys i have a galaxy s2 i9100 and wanted to ask that since i run on 4.4.4 with c-rom, android l has changed the design of playstore, google play apps such as play books and games, gmail and many others. but i wanted to ask that will google update those apps for 4.4.4 users with android l like design because thats what i heard, as google looks new in android l they might change the design, i mean the design has been the same since 4.0 ice cream sandwich and just changing the design of apps in android l is weird but what do you think will they update google apps with new android l animations for everyone lower than L?

In time Google will update the core Google apps but keep in mind that Google stated the Android L preview is just a preview and the design and UI of the apps are subject to change before the final release. The apps will be updated for devices below Android L but the updates UI won't arrive likely until the final release of Android L.

only rumour but the up coming Z1 is able to run android apps
Sent from my SM-T320 using XDA Free mobile app
Rumor sadly incorrect: Android apps won't run on the Z1.
I'd love to find a way to install Android apps on the Gear S. The Tizen app store is such a joke
Google won't let Samsung get away with installing Google Play Market apps, especially Google services apps on a non-sanctioned OS, especially the one Samsung is hoping to compete against Android OS. So, the best Samsung can do is create its own app market and hope devs are supporting it. I seriously doubt this will take off. Samsung can't even make its own Android app work correctly across its own ranges of Android phones. They know how to make fantastic phones but their software has always below average.

Glad im not the only one.
I too have been searching for how to do this. Did you ever succeed?
I found some android 5.0 links from a google search, but they look fake. wonder if CM11 or CM12 would work OR the method used for the gear 2. Sure would be nice. i almost got the ZGPAX S8 (nearly the same guts), but opted for the Gear S (for the scren) w/ hopes for the eventual android ROM.
Fingers Crossed,
:good:
hasnt happened, there is nothing in the works, any links on google that say otherwise are false....

Gaaah!
I hate it when I'm stalking APKMirror for updates to an app, and the update isn't the one I'm looking for:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...h-record-live-tv-1-10-8-android-apk-download/
1.10.8 does NOT show up on the leanback home screen, nor does it support controller input...
Guys let me know if it works outside USA when you get the apk.
Whoop whoop!
http://www.androidpolice.com/2017/11/02/youtube-tv-app-android-tv-now-live-apk-download/
Its available on the Play Store now.
It works, but they want you to subscribe and pay them money... there is a 7 day free trial however, they still want your credit card info for that.
They need to update the app to be able to change profiles. Other than that it seems to be good so far.

Any news about Global ROM?

Hi everybody,
seems like that since the beginning of September various e-shops have had availability of a Global Black Shark.
Judging from various unboxing/review videos the main difference seems to be that the Global Black Shark uses a stock-ish Android Oreo with preinstalled Play Services, but this ROM doesn't seem to exists on any site.
Does anybody know something more about that?
I think it would be cool to have an official global ROM.
I purchased mine 4 days ago here, I'm somewhere from Asia.
Yes it comes with Stock Android ROM. Although this looks the way it should be presented to the world, I think I prefer the China ROM's JoyUI due to the features I liked from Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x.
It is similar to MIUI and somehow I regret getting the global verson.

I have the global one as well and its kind of like lineage OS + the shark space , or the way android looks on a google pixel phone + shark space with all the options to configure the gamepad , extreme mode , etc.
Other than that there is no sign of any other joyui features like screen recording and the other stuff with the led customization.
It only says JoyUi when you go to check for updates even though its not
Doesnt come with any bloat-ware either at all.
Out of the box it had about 15~ apps installed which were most google apps , and it has the play store by default.
To be honest i prefer the the more simple global rom because i read on the official chinese forums on the joyui version that there are some stability issues with the software where it sometimes reboots randomly on its own which kinda sucks if its true.
Dont have any screenshots as there is no need since it looks like stock androind.
If you wanna see the ui check out the unbox therapy video where you can kind of see what it looks like.

i see, well i got the Chinese version since june, i can't deny an occasional force reboot happens but its very rare like once in 2 weeks, and its much better with the recent updates, it was a bigger problem before android 8.1 update arrived, now its negligble.
i also had some issues with google services and facebook force closing in the first FW version but that was also fixed now, im very happy with the phone RN, joyui is also very clean and has no bloatware at all, except xiaomi standard apps like the market and gallery app file manager etc which i like since i had xiaomi mi6 before.
overall its great though, battery life is amazing partly due to the big battery of the phone but i think joyui + xiaomi background managment is doing really good work, when im not playing it can easely last 2.5 days of causal use with around 8 hours of SOT. with hibarnate disabled so i get notifications on whatsapp etc.
there is only one thing that really bothers me i wonder if global version is the same, when im taking a video with the camera, the auto focus always goes nuts and keeps trying to refocus and never does, didn't have this issue with any other xiaomi phone before and its the same camera app. i end up using manuel focus for taking videos which is anoying at times when u try to move the camera around focus gets lost.
I have a chinese Black Shark and it's really great except for the fact that the play store is not built in.
You can add it via various tools but it not being a System app brings some compatibility issues such as Android Auto not connecting properly to the phone (logcat says it misses som authorizations).
It also have some problems with the download manager (Play Store sometimes needs a clear data to start download apps again) and with notifications

I have the Chinese version , would much rather have the global one
Black shark 2 variation
I just notice the the Model ada diffrent
For the china is SKR-A0
While the global is SKR-H0
Is there alot of diffrent?
I think that until the last update, the Global one was too a SKR-A0.
With the last update the name of the model was changed to fit with the "Helo" name of the new model, thus the "H" instead of the "A".
Can i change the chineese rom to the global one?, and if so, how?
Pls help

At the moment, this seems impossible.
There are no chinese or global roms online and there is no known method of unlocking the bootloader on the chinese version.
I got the global skr-ho 6gb ram 64gb rom..... the best phone I've used coming from a snapdragon fan works vary well with AT&T and cricket u.s
China version just got the firmware update from blackshark helo, 60 fps ui, more backlight led options, and cool gaming mode stats tool showing real time fps cpu temp etc.
