Hi Guys,
Any Idea where I can download Samsung Device Maintenance app for a Samsung still running on Marshmellow - Android 6.0.1?
I accidently deleted the app while doing some tweaking on my phone and would love to re-install it.
Apart from having to factory reset my phone (and thus lose all my customisations done since) I have no idea where to find this App for Android 6.0.1 ???
On Playstore and APKmirror the only versions I can find are for Android 7 upwards.
It obviously does exist for the Android 6 platform as well, as it came pre-installed on my Samsung.
Any Help would be greatly appreciated.
Many Tx Guys.....

Hello folks,
I am fairly new to the Android OS so please be gentle
I took the plunge and finally got a smart TV from Haier which came with the 2.3.4 Android system. All is fine an cherry in 2.3.4 town as of now (apart from its horribly looking user interface design). But was wondering if i could install the 4.0 update ?
Isnt the android system like any other where you have one default version of the OS that comes from google and then there are variants from the open-source community ? If so then which is the best stable version and where can i find it.
Installation of the 2.3.4 OS is on an MMC that i copied from the technicians that came home to fix the TV so i am fine with a backup and the procedure for the install from an MMC. But i assume that if i download the OS from the internet then the procedure will be a bit different ?
I'll update more of the details (Kernel version etc) when i get home. All this because the manufacture - Haier - does not provide updates online or on its website or anywhere on the web. Appreciate any help.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Gaj - I have the same question which you have. Did you get any response from anyone or have you now upgraded to the latest version ?
If you have the latest firmware to upgrade , please share it with me or else please share the OS back up what you have as I don't even have it
please help me

Hi Everyone
I have limited to no experience and have only rooted and installed 2 devices with a custom ROM
about 4 years ago Galaxy S3 with kitkat lite and a nexus 7 2012 tablet.
My old phone recently died (Sony Z1 C ) and I bought the S5 Neo a few months ago and am not happy this phone is extremely resource hungry while on idle 80% of my RAM is used up and it keeps freezing. I have looked on Cyanogen and XDA and am not able to find a custom ROM. I have found a OEM MarshMellow ROM on Sammobile but the Base band version dosnt match up not sure if it would make a difference.
As seen as I cannot find another ROM to install I thought I would be able to edit my current ROM to make APPS like Facebook and Whatsapp stop running in RAM while not in use freeing up resources. (I dont need notifications from Facebook or Messenger if the app isnt open)
Is this possible ?
I have downloaded Android kitchen and Android studio as well as Cygwin but am having a bit of trouble getting Cygwin to run keep getting an error. I have also downloaded all the necessary java files and extra Cygwin files straight from their web site.
Please let me know if I am looking at this from the wrong angle, or point me in the right direction
Thank you for your help guys
I now have a Samsung S5 Neo
Model Number : SM-G903F (European)
Base band Version : G903FXXU1APA2
Android : 5.1.1
do you have root? you can use greenify
and write you firmware so we can search for rom for you
Thank you for the advice will give it a go if things don't improve.
Have just had a system update to marshmallow seems to be running ok.
Also uninstalled Facebook and Facebook messenger it was hogging a lot of ram

Hello Developers,
I wanna try reviving the (made obsolete by Samsung) MyKnox App and for that i need a little help. I observed something after the Oreo upgrade of my S8 and i wanna analyze that to see if i can do something to simulate the MyKnox activation without the Samsung servers.
For that i need someone who still has a working installation of MyKnox on Android 6.0, 7.0 and 7.1 who can give me a backup of the apps (Apps only, not the data). If you need help on how to do that please contact me, or write in this thread. I hope i can find someone who still has them.
Bests,

I still have myknox running on S5neo sent u a direct message
3 years ago somebody downgraded somebody I met at the internet successful my Samsung J5 to Android 5.
Now I think about the possibility to downgrade my Samsung A7 (A750GN) to Android 4.
Would it be possible?
In know with such a questions a lot of people want to know why.
It's simple.
I love how 4 looks.
I could still enjoy 5 if I have too.
And Android is gone the same negative way like Microsoft with Windows 10.
Every new Android Version has more and more rubbish included I don't use and I don't want,
Today is (for me) my Android Version a overloaded fat elephant with so many bad functions I can't turn off.
I would like to have a "Android Lite" and I would like to have a Android that looks like 4 or 5.
But would it be possible?
I have never ever done something like this for myself.
That last time with my J5 somebody installed a remote control on my laptop and I plugged in my mobile and this guy has done everything remote controlled.
I have still to today no idea who he was and from where he was.
But it worked fine.
He downgraded my J5 to Android 5 and he changed something in such a way the mobile never ask for a update and when I try to force a update I get the wrong answer the newest update in installed.
Absolute great.
That is what I'm looking for with my A7.
Any ideas?
It is NOT possible to downgrade your A7 to android 5.
When a new phone comes out , for example the A7 2018 , it was launched with android 8.
It can not be downgraded to any version below the version it came out with.
Even after updating from android 8 to the latest android 10 , i don't think it is possible to even downgrade to android 8 again (because samsung updates, patch your phone with the new update.)
Galaxy J5 was released with android 5 touchwiz, the android 5 system customized by Samsung.
The person who was connected to your computer has installed a custom rom (probably an AOSP rom , as you described being a "lite version".)
AOSP roms are roms without the Samsung add-ons and customizations , created by developers here on XDA.
For the moment , an AOSP android 10 for A7 2018 is not available , but there is another way to get a "lite " version of android 10 on your device.
As it needs a lot of reading and understanding on android development, i do not sugges you doing so .
It is called GSI and you can find by reading in the correct thread , for example :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-a7/help/how-to-install-gsi-samsung-galaxy-a7-t4165617
Please , be aware that you might brick your device if you decide to experiment with its system.
Hope this helps you.
