Annoying MyGalaxy icon in status bar - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Hi,
I updated my Galaxy S7 to Nougat. Now I've got this fat icon in the status bar. I've read it's from the MyGalaxy app - but I have uninstalled the app and it's still there

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Does anybody know, how to remove that icon?
And while we're at it - does anybody know, how to remove the alarm clock icon as well?
Regards,
Thomas

Its the IMS service icon for wifi calling.
I don't personally use this, so I simply removed the service using Titanium backup and it was gone.
There is a zip that apparently removes the icon, however this didn't work when I tested.

Thanks, you're right - it's not the MyGalaxy app, but the IMS service icon.
Unfortunately when I freeze the app with Titanium Backup I always get a message every two seconds, that the IMS service crashed. Doesn't freezing the service work here? Do I need to completely remove it? (I'm afraid that, if I remove it completely, the error message will continue to pop up and that I will have to reflash the whole system...)

I think I just removed it, but I may have revived any references to it too. Sorry, I can't remember exactly.
It's possible its trying to initialize as its only frozen, but I can't be sure in that I'm afraid.

Today installed nougat, anyone now what is this?

I just found the solution to remove the IMS icon from the status bar: Apparently the Samsung Messenger app was responsible for that, so I freezed the messenger app with Titanium Backup and installed another SMS app instead (in my case simply the Google Messenger app).

[Q] Problem with Market/Wildfire

Hiya - I have the Desire and just got Wildfire for daughter - she is delighted-me less so as we have switched from PAYG to contract and I do NOT want her to go over her minutes, so have tried in vain to get the Mobile Account Checker from the Android Market. It shows up on my phone on the market, but not on hers! I tried scanning the barcode thing with her phone - not available. Tried with mine and bingo it is there. Any clues? I have it installed on my phone, but really need it for her!

Did you try to install via the website with Fastinstall installed and activated?
Just syncing with appbrain doesn't work.
1. download and install appbrain from market
2. download, install, and open fast web install from market
3. follow on screen instructions to let fast web install integrate into appbrain
4. visit www.appbrain.com search for your application and hit the "install" button on the appbrain website

5. the application should then be magically pushed to your htc wildfire,
if not: check that wifi or 3g is enabled. if it still doesn't work, try "manage my apps" -> "sync with appbrain" in the appbrain application and wait a few seconds
Sync doesn't work since it opens the market page or tries to.
i guess you're mixing it with "perform installs"
i noticed that sometimes i click install on the website, but nothing happens. even when wifi is enabled ... so i did the steps @ #5 and it worked then ... just a personal workaround. nothing official
i found a topic at g4 tattoo
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=645286
like simulate screen resolution higher.
but it need root first.
i m not sure how to do root on g8.
maybe anyone who already root can try it out.

Android lockscreen change

}
to this lockscreen?
When i was playing around alittle i noticed that if you delete the HtcLockScreen.apk from /system/app, it will rollback to the default one. Atleast it did that for me.

On what build did you try that?
Edit: I can't find the system/apps...Maybe because my phone it's not an Android based? I have hd2 and i boot Android from sd card...
Is there any .apk to install it for me?
edithhh! I get it...i must have a rooted Android version and with the use of root explorer i can do it! I will give it a try!
I used "Linda-manager" to go into "my phone", there you'll get a warning if you're sure to go into that folder. There you'll find the system/apps folder. Rename or delete the lockscreen.apk.
It works fine, but the Windows-button of the HD2 overrules the lockscreen so you'll always be able to enter the phone with that button.
I'm still finding a way to solve that "problem".

Uninstall stock apps with Titanium.. 3.70??

Is anyone having a problems uninstalling stock apps from the stock 3.70 with titanium pro? ? When I click on uninstall in the batch it shows up removed from the list, but still shows in the app drawer even after a reboot. I didn't have this problem with stock 3.30 rom. And yes I'm rooted.Thanks!
StayEVO
same here, then my market stopped working.....maybe wait for an update to TItanium Backup?
Download the version of busybox that tib recommends and don't use batch uninstall. Uninstall one by one.
I never have problems with tib uninstalling anything.
Had the same issue with Titanium after the 3.70 update.
I used root explorer to just move the apps out of the /system/app folder and that took care of it.
Still curious as to why Titanium can't do it anymore
Lots of folks are having this issue on 3.70.x roms. Use root explorer.
For the one that said use it's version of busybox, tried that. Tried Chuck Norris mode too, still nada.
Yeh .. I downloaded busybox from Titanium. Rebooted the phone and finally got it to delete.. weird..??
StayEVO
Then there is something wrong with your rom installs.
I built a rom myself based off the 3.70 update. I also have hw003. I have removed everything sprint related (nova, nav, tv, etc) including sense completely using nothing but tib.
EDIT: For good measure here's a shot of my software build and my app drawer. Excuse the colors, I was calibrating my colors at the time I took the screenshots.

Same issue here. Use root explorer to delete files either in system or in data. Just make sure you reboot if you delete files from data because they won't be you reflected in the launcher right away

[SOLVED] Secure Settings crashed error message

Hi I ran into this issue before but I forget how I fixed it. I thought it was from not having enough free space on internal/external SD cards but I cleaned it up a little and it didn't seem to fix it. I also tried force closing, clearing data/cache for app, uninstalling, reinstalled it, and activated as a device administrator successfully but it doesn't open/work with Tasker.

I had problems with SS when I was using the helper app. But after using Helper Alternative under the SS Helper Tab everything works as it should. I believe it installed SS as a system app so you don't need the Helper app.

Thanks for the response! It's fixed now by using ROM Toolbox Pro's app manager to convert it to a system app and then had to restart the phone
Had to do it before after restoring from a backup and it just slipped my mind
No need to use Ron Toolbox. Just go to the SS app, go to the helper tab and click Alternative Helper. SS will do the rest.

Oh! Missed that part. Let us know if installing it as system app works then.
Edit: See that it solved it. Good
I tried all the above solutions and still not fixed, Secure Settings keeps crashing before start.

Tutorial: Putting S-Health back onto the S5

Prerequisites
An S5 that is rooted, and no longer has S-Health installed. In my case, I wanted to turn a "Custom" status S5 into an "Official" status one instead.
A file explorer (ES is used here).
The stock SHealth3.apk, HealthService.apk, and HealthService.odex backed up.
If you don't have them, I made a copy.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/103146562/SHealth.zip
Make sure you have no installed S Health or HealthService installed on your phone.
Copy SHealth3.apk, HealthService.apk, and HealthService.odex from your phone's storage to /data/app .
Set each file's permission's individually to rw-r--r-- . (Hit the Back key then choose Refresh to verify the app icons are now visible).
Reboot your phone... check its status, which should list as Official.

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
As an added bonus, once you manually upgrade S Health and HealthService, you can choose to Restore any previous backups... I never allow S Health to backup prior to restoring (because there's only lousy data to back up).
Did you mean, our Device's status will became Official from Custom?
Or you're just talking about S-Health app?

Does it really works ? somebody tried ?
At the time, I thought it would work. Every time I've tried for real, though, I've needed to flash from Kies or something dumb to return my system status back to normal.

you say that on a status custom, just do what you did (add Health) and your status become official ? or you made update via kies ?

I actually had to completely wipe and reflash via Kies on my desktop to get an Official ROM again. I used to think Health could be shuffled back to system to fix that problem, but I think I was mistaken. The system status showed as Official for a while, but then it switched irrevocably to Custom.
