When you're ready to post actual links, message me and I'll reopen this, but until then, thread closed.
As I was looking around, I saw that many people were having problems regarding Google Assistant. Especially those who were running on custom ROMs, like cm13, had the problem. So I thought of writing this post, which if you follow correctly, you'll get Google Assistant up & running in "ANY" devices running android 6.0 & up (TouchWiz might be an exception). So without wasting much of the time, let's get started.
Pre-Requisites:
• Rooted phone running android 6.0 or up
• Latest Gapps installed (especially Google App & Google Play Services)
• Xposed Framework
• Latest Android N-fy or Assistant Enabler (recommended) xposed module
• Pixel Launcher
• Some patience...
(Check 2nd post for download links)
Procedure:
1. First make sure you installed all the pre requisites apps from the download links. And also that xposed module are active.
2. Now open your build.prop (located in /system) & add the following line & reboot:
Code:
ro.opa.eligible_device=true
3. Go to Settings > Apps > Advanced > Default Apps > Assist & Voice Input > Assist App
4. Select Google App as your assist app, & agree the terms & conditions.
5. Open Google App & say "OK Google".
6. Now your first time Google Assistant setup will open up, complete the setup.
7. Now come to your homepage (or anywhere) & long press the home button.
8. BINGO!!! Your Google Assistant will open up. Have fun, enjoy .

Hello everyone,
I'm one of the few unfortunate to end up and stick with a Chinese variant of Galaxy S6 model SM-G9200. This particular model (SM-G9200) comes in 2 variants(CSC): The Hong Kong (TGY) version (last ROM G9200ZHU2ERK2 Nov.2018 v7.0) packed with Google Apps and all the goody goods, and the China (CHC) version (last ROM G9200ZCU2ERK2 Nov.2018 v7.0) with fewer features and which I happen to own.
Both are virtually the same phone with just different firmware. As some of you may know, the Chinese ROMs don't include Google Apps package due to local restrictions and naturally I've downloaded the Hong Kong variant but this is where I got stuck. The HK ROM won't flash through Odin and it fails at flashing sboot.bin while the phone saying "SECURE CHECK FAIL (BOOTLOADER)". This generally indicates that I attempt to flash the wrong ROM but SamMobile says the SM-G9200 has 2 CSC ROMs in which only the CN version seems to work in Odin. I've already unlocked the bootloader with CROM apk (link provided) but with no use still. I've also tried a .pit file for the HK variant but I get "SECURE CHECK FAIL (PIT)". Also, some have suggested a 4-file method of flashing but that's no where to be found.
Now I know that I could just stick with the CN ROM and root with CF-Auto-Root (link here), then flash the GApps but it goes much deeper than that. What I usually do with Samsung phones in the past was to just flash TWRP in Odin (link here) then flash/debloat/modify files only through TWRP because it won't modify the system files and break dm-verity, SafetyNet, SELinux and other Knox security as these are crucial for another app that I'm used to, the Barclays Mobile Banking app. This app won't work without Google Play Services and won't work if the phone is/was rooted in any way, even after a unroot and full restore. TWRP won't do the trick because as soon as I mount the /system partition, it goes through a boot loop (the bootloader detects that dm-verity tree hash check fails and resets itself). One trick that I use to bypass this is to repack the boot.img patched earlier by CF-Auto-Root generated bootloader (link provided) and flash it. However this method doesn't work either as the ROM is in Custom mode again and SafetyNet is missing. Maybe the rom lacks this feature altogether.
I've literally searched the entire internet for resources (Google, Baidu, xda, chinese forums) to get as much insight and files I can gather but my search went as far as it goes.
In conclusion, I've opened this thread to ask for help from the broader community and maybe research additional mods & root methods like Magisk and how to flash the HK or any ROM. My theory is that the block is related to Odin Mode's "Secure Download: Enabled". Please don't reply with things like "please root my phone", "pm please help"..... as I've already provided with all the possible files and what we need is a constructive discussion on how to bust open this phone.
Courtesy to those who made those tools. Their name is in he filename or link source. All files are relevant to the GM-G9200 CN model.
Conclusion
Alright guys, after a lot of research and hard work I came with the best solution. It turns out that there is no way to flash the TGY firmware, however this is not a problem. The solution that I found would be to manually install Open Gapps from TWRP recovery. So here are the instructions to get a clean rom with Google Play and no root traces for banking apps:
- Flash your original ROM with Odin.
- As soon as that finishes, go to recovery and choose "wipe /data" to clear any modified files left out.
- Flash TWRP provided from this post.
- In TWRP you do all the work, firstly you need to make space for Gapps so delete unnecessary apps. You will find a list of apps you can and can't delete in "Knox Out.txt".
- Now flash OpenGapps zip and you may also customise it to install only required apps.
- Now that you modified /system you have to disable dm-verity. Flash the "no-verity-withSE.zip".
- All done! Now you got a phone with Google Play Certified status and passing all SafetyNet & Root checks.
After using the S6 Duos for a while and testing literally every feature I have to say that it is worth using it. However, it does have a few issues which I've yet to fix. so you may want to consider them.
- Not all languages are available. Certain UI elements & apps might not be translated when using an unsupported language.
- I cannot hide the data type indicator (4G/3G) even after disabling Mobile Data, and Dual SIM mode really clogs up the status bar (5 items).
- VoLTE does not work on some networks (UPDATE! Needs to change customer.xml to add the IMS settings and other carrier related features) and Wifi Calling does not work at all because ePDG subsystem is missing on this phone.
- Floating Messages UI crashes when WeChat app is installed. However the feature works flawlessly, only the UI control in Advanced Settings doesn't.
- Maps for SHealth and other apps use the Chinese Amap instead of Google Maps. (UPDATE! Needs to change customer.xml and change Country and Region for your specific language).
- Phone number locator a.k.a Caller ID is only in Chinese.
Hi, Alex.
I have been having issues trying to use gapps on my samsung s6 dous China. I have been unable to use my google acccount on the phone after all the processes. I flashed android 7, twrp and installed gapps, then no verify. The processes went fine, but cant still activate my google account. Can u please point me to anything I am missing and also the version of the android OS and posibly download link you used on your phone. Thanks.

I went through the entire process and all went well until I tried to sign in through google play. It did the checking info screen and then went blank. No error messages. Has Google started blocking gapps?
