I am unable to Sideload APK's. I'm trying SwiftKey Beta for example. When the install manager pulls up with the permissions listed, the Install button on the bottom right is unresponsive. I can hit cancel, but it won't let me select Install. I tried some other APK's, so its not just Swiftkey. I did allow unknown Sources in the Security Settings section. I rooted using Chainfires CF Autoroot. But I think that has nothing to do with it. Anyone have the same issues?

Ok very odd. I had power cycled my phone. Tried installing the Apk and it works now. Just FYI, in case anyone runs into this issue.

You didn't happen to have any screen dimming apps active, did you? Because Android disables installing apps when they're active to prevent malware from covering up install buttons.
Yes, I was running Screen Filter. I was in bed and did not want to wake up my girl. Genius man! Thank you. Did not know that.

After I disable softkeys I've got problem with chrome & chrome beta - no menu button. When chrome starts I see button but then it hides. All other apps works fine.
Does anyone have this problem with chrome?
I use stock ROM & elementalx kernel.

Hmm find this https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=324533
Has anyone tried completely disabling Bixby and all its related apps? I am wondering if you use the BixRemap app and then disable Bixby Completely it will be like it was never installed on the phone.
I may take a crack at it to see if it will work but wanted to see if anyone had disable the app itself yet and if that caused any issues.
Thanks!
UpDate: I disabled ALL of the bixby stuff have not run into any issues so far, but it does break remapping the button, basically the button is worthless now. Wish they would just let us use it for whatever we want like the Active button is.
The new methods of remapping rely on watching when Bixby launches, not the actual button press. So, if Bixby never launches, the current remap apps cannot work

The downside of that one is you have to disable secure startup. My company mandates that is turned on due to sensitive material so I'm kind of out of luck. It works great if you don't need secure startup turned on.

Ohhh dang my apologies. Didn't even realize that. I don't have secure start-up enabled. Good to know though for sure.
I disabled mine and all other bloatware. Works great

I keep getting a notification to update Bixby Voice. Every time I attempt to update it gives me an error, then tells me to update again.
Anyone else having this issue?

Not that I can speak of. I don't really use it. The only reason I tried is it said something about Bixby Voice.

OK. Since I have been using BXactions app, where I chose "do nothing" while the Bixby button is pressed, I would probably stay away of updating because the Bixby developes might have closed this exploit.
Does bixby voice work?

I'm getting the same error. It tries to Update but then it says most recent version installed but whenever Bixby reloads it shows the error all-over again.

Dumb question but why are you using an app to essentially turn off the Bixby button instead of just disabling the Bixby app?

The reason is simple. There are actually 2 reasons:
1) My S8+ is non-rooted. I don't want to install any package disabler for bixby related files disabling. I had a negative experience on my previous Note4 with a package disabler in the past (only TitaniumBackup worked well on rooted device);
2) BXActions enables you to reassign an action taken after the bixby button is pressed.
For instance, I want to disable the bixby today and I may want camera start in a week.
BTW, BXActions works flawlessly so far...

Ah good to know. I've been out of the Samsung game a while and so I just went right to package disabler pro that I bought in the S6 days.
Wish there was a way to change the button without having a second program. Oh well.

Bixby Voice is launching soon. Unlocked S8 in the US just got an update with June security patch and Bixby partially working in English.
Seems like it's just about them "flicking the switch" for the updates to roll out, probably why it keeps telling you there is an update.
Check for the update now. Mine now says I’m up to date instead of prompting me to update.
are u checking for update i.n the galaxy store.
Huge bixby update

my bixby is fully functionable except for bixby voice... cant get it to work. ive seen some tutorials on youtube how to get it working with the bixby voice but honestly i couldnt be asked to do whats on the video hahaha. im using s7 edge rooted with khongloi s8 port ROM, bixby vision is also working.
Also, using the QuickShortCutMaker app I can see there is Bixby Voice activity and i can go into its settings, turn it on and that, but it doesnt wanna work on with the wake up voice command, and i havent got the bixby key so yeah. gotta live without it for now.
I'm using batman rom 1.1 with button mapper bixby voice to volume down twice.

Sorry yesterday I just move on to note 7 fe rom with non working bixby voice. So I can't really tell you which version of bixby voice. But 2 days ago I just updated it through samsung galaxy apps(really just update the whole bixby apps), means it's the newest bixby voice.

As far as Bixby goes, none of the developers here in xda have
found a way yet to get Bixby to wake up using your voice on the
S7/S7 Edge phones.
It's very far from being anything even close to perfect.
It might be fun for the first 5 minutes but after that you
will see it was a total waste of time setting it up.
The way it works right now is by swiping the home screen to
the right side and clicking on the tiny Bixby icon or you need
to get a button re-mapper which can be set to use a long press
of the volume down of the phone and then you need to click the
Bixby icon to talk to Bixby.
It works like a very poorly designed push-to-talk walkie talkie
and it's super slow and or very laggy..
Nothing like Google Assistant. Not worth messing around with.
Please note, this is only my personal opinion which usually is
not worth very much! LOL
Good luck, Have a great day!
Bixby is working fine with me. Everything works fine except sometimes Hi Bixby is not recognized.
