Heart rate Monitor stops workinh after root and trippinh KNOX - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

Hi guys o have a bit of a problem. I rooted my galaxy s7 yeszerday and tripped KNOX. Bummer. But i never wanted to pay via smartphone anyway wich makes it not that bad. But, i found out that my s health app is not hiving me the Option to monitor my heart rate. The button is just gone. Now my question: is there any s health alternative app wich is using the heart rate monitor? Or is there a way to restore the s health function?

it's working fine for me, and I'm rooted.

Huh ok thats strange... did you play around with the dpi? And did you trigger KNOX?

Samsung Pay
Does anyone when our what's up with samsung pay app for the gear s2 is it out yet my watch says no payment app installed in the tap and pay section
Same issue!!
Same problem here. I tried to use the tap-n-pay at a location where I normally use my Samsung Pay on my Galaxy S6 Edge, and nothing happened. On my Gear S2 watch I went into Settings/Connections/NFC, then scroll down to Tap and Pay - and I get a screen which says, "Tap and pay (then shows sketch of tap n pay) No installed payment apps"
And unfortunately there is no Samsung Pay app in the Gear app store. So upset about this.

Not for me. If the screen is on the always on clock then I get notifications. If its on the black only screen I get nothing. This isnt working like it should. Ive tired everything. Ive turned on always on mode and then turned of wrist gestures and the always on clock will only stay on for about an hour and then it will just be a black screen and Ill get nothing. With always on set to on and wrist gestures to on I will only get notification if the screen just turned off or always on clock showing.
Are you using the Oneplus 2?

Step counting on auto, how to turn off?

I was hiking the slot canyon in Anza yesterday and when I finally got back to a restaurant, I realized the phone , which I'd never enabled anything in particular on, had counted all my steps and several other things.
Does anyone know how to disable step counting on emui 5? I've done all the obvious things, like "disable step counting". Thanks. I don't care how many steps I've taken, only that I arrived.
Also: I meant to mention this but forgot. The camera works great for me, but that isn't good enough for the Honor 8. After I've taken some pictures, about 3 hours later, it always pops up a notification that says "I've finished enhancing your picture of _____" . What if I don't want an enhanced picture? Is there a way to turn off all this irritating crap? Thanks again.

If you are referring to the step count being displayed on the lock screen then you disable it through the screen lock settings. Otherwise, I believe it's in the Health App itself.
Not sure about the photo enhancing. Never seen that one before.
What app do tell you about step counting.
Plus, clear data and cache of the camera app and see if the pop-up is still present
I didn't even know that the Honor 8 had a built in step counter app in it's software.

Well, I forgot the name, it was the Health app (HiHealth or something). Try to find it and open it, you will find all your steps and lots of other information about your "health".

It's this one : http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/huawei...lease/health-1-1-26-310-android-apk-download/
But I have the chinese version of the Honor, so maybe some apps are differents ?

The only fitness app I can find is called "google fit". I've disabled it. However, the steps are still there after disabling them on the lock screen & disabling the fit app, so I think it may be a bug or else there is another counter that just keep going. It's not that bad and it doesn't eat up any noticeable energy.

I just realized I had an app called "Health" and disabled it, and now it is gone from the lock screen. The lock screen setup doesn't work for turning off steps (or not showing them). The app was located in the /system/app folder as hw-health-midware.apk

It seems that you have the Chinese variant, as the US model doesn't come with the health app.

Probably doesn't matter what my frd-l04 came with that I bought from newegg that I use on ATT. It matters more that I updated to Nougat and that's the beta which had the health app in it. On marshmallow, I never had the step counter or the health app.

I probably just don't recall it from Marshmallow since I updated the first day I got it. The good news is that it's called "healthd" and can be disabled and deleted as can all their crapware if desired. I just did that and I'm not rooted yet.

S8+ camera pro

Hey guys. I have a big question. Tonight i want to take some pictures to Milky Way. And where is the 30 second shutter speed. Becouse with 10 second the result is bad. Or someone can help with the settings? I tryed to take one shot with ISO 100 and shutter speed 10s. But with 10s its impossible. I need 30s. Where can i find that option? Thanks guys. :good:
You can find that option here.

Try another camera app that supports a longer shutter speed. The native camera app is a system app and you can't change the system without root.

Get it rooted. After 2 weeks your phone won't fail if it was going to it would do it within that time.

Anyway i don't use these apps : Secure Folder and Samsung Pay. But for me 'ROOT' means something what makes my phone worse.
And what about if i'll root my phone for 2-3 days? After when i shot the milky way, i will delete or take it off the root. Its possible?

Yes, it is possible. But just for your information rooting doesnt make the phone worse, you could actually increase it's speed, battery life etc.
Also once you root it then on e and for all ypur phone is classified as software tampered device (since knox is tripped, noway to reset it till now) by samsung. So in case in future you want to use samsung pay theres noway 4 it.
Anyways if you insist in doing then you can proceed in doing (atb)

Really? Someone told me rooting will make the phone worse, with many problems..
I dont know...this phone is expensive, and i really don't want to lose it or to have problems with the software or anything else..
I think, i try to root for 5-7 days, and if there is no problem or something bad, i will keep it.

Yes when you dont do with proper assistance or experience, thats why im here advising people, since i have an experien e with s7 edge, i somehow corrupted efs folder and lost imei i dint have a backup so i had to give 900Dhirhams to repair. Thats why im not taking a chance with my s8+ but all this which i told happens only whenbu install custom rom then mess up with it, it doesnt happen when you just root it.
So jus be careful..!!!

I know on the S7 we had to change a value in the build.prop after rooting to get Shealth to work. I can't remember off hand what it was or if it would work on the Note. I think it was something to do with changing the security to false or changing tima to 0. I can't remember 100 percent though.

Android P DP1 doesn't work with Huawei Health and Huawei Wear

Just an FYI Huawei Health and Huawei Wear haven't been updated to work with the first developer preview of Android P. Both apps keep crashing. If anything changes I'll advise here.
I have been struggling with the same issue, is there any other application that can sync the data from watch to phone, like sleeping analysis ?
That's a bummer, I don't plan to run the DP until Google I/O so hopefully huawei addresses this fast. Hope you sent a bug report ?

Nope. No huawei health data can sync without the phone apps. You'd be better off using google fit for steps, and sleep as android for sleep.

Typically when an app crashes it will have a little pop-up to send feedback. I almost always just hit cancel, it's become second nature. Other than that I'm not sure how else to send a bug report to them...maybe on the huawei health play store page?

Thanks! I always thought that went to Google but makes sense it would go to the developers. I have done this now. I really don't expect much movement on this for a while. Considering rolling back to Oreo.

Just be careful rolling back, think I read somewhere that you can't recert to a previous version anymore with pixels. I think it's because of security reasons, so they only allow you to update....I could very well be wrong, but check it out before flashing anything

Thanks Gators. I found a good article about downgrading. But I decided to stay with Android P for now. I have survived without Huawei Fit and Huawei Wear. Google Fit seems to be holding up alright
Good news. Today Huawei health was updated and no longer crashes.
However Huawei wear has not been updated yet and seems to get less updates. Last one was February. Hopefully they do an update soon.

The main Huawei phone app doesn't work for me on DP2. It doesn't crash like before but it does crash as soon as you try and pair the app on the phone with the watch.

Health data from the watch doesn't sync with the phone if the Huawei Wear app isn't installed on the watch unfortunately.
I wonder why it takes them so long to fix it.
Guys finally it works with Huawei health beta app!! You can add the watch from the health app, no need for Huawei wear app anymore.
EDIT: just search for "Huawei Health 8.0.2.317-wearBeta.apk" you should be able to download the apk and install it normally
Link?
Nevermind... https://download.dlapk.org/?apkid=com.huawei.health&ver=8.0.2.317-wearBeta&server=dennyssantos
