Getting fedup of trying to sort this by myself as Samsung Tech are nothing short of useless.
When Samsung Free updated to the latest version with the TV included I started getting the message I need to wait until "the leave process" has been completed and can take "up to 1 day". Well two weeks later (14 days!!!!!) it's still not resolved. Posted on Samsung Members and a few others have the same problem.
I have tried the following
1. Force stopped and unistalled updates. Free then works but keeps bugging for the update, once updated then same message.
2. Tried no 1 again and pressed "leave Free" which worked but once updated same issue.
3. Reset app preferences
4. Removed Samsung account from the phone and once the account was back then same message
5. Same problem on my tab s6 which I have now deactivated Samsung Free.
Any ideas apart from using Microsoft Launcher or Nova

Sammy tech support sucks worse than a Bronx hooker
Try clearing system cache.
Clearing data in all related apps.
Factory load on all Samsung junk.
Clear Google Play Services data (just for good measure)
Inversely try updating Sammy apps from the Galaxy Store only not Playtore.
Reboot, reboot, reboot...
Make sure you haven't disabled a needed parent app.
Turn off all power management... destroyer of worlds.
Replace with a 3rd party app or wait for Sammy to fix it... eventually... maybe.

Hi Everyone. I got a new account but I've visited this site lots of times now in about 4 years.
First of all, I would like to thank all the developers here especially to Tkkg1994 for developing the superstock rom on the galaxy s7.
I have installed it on my phone and works great! I would like to ask if anyone else is encountering this problem on this ROM? The samsung contacts app(stock) keeps crashing if I go to "settings". I wanted to export my contacts from here.
I have tried reinstalling about 8 times now with different options and settings (tried stock kernel, tried superstock kernel, tried installing all samsung and google apps, tried with/without adblocker, tried with/without busybox). Would appreciate any help or info on this. Thanks XDA!
Regards,

Looking for a fix.
I also noticed after the recent update that my contacts keep closing when trying to enter the settings. Wondering what it is and looking forward to a solution.
Did you get this fixed?
I fixed it by manually installing a newer Samsung Contacts app. Just Google "Samsung Contacts apk", download a newer version (I downloaded the latest 3.1 that was newer than what was on my phone).
Drop the apk in /system/priv-app/SamsungContacts80, set the permissions on the new file to RW-R--R--, add an underscore to the end of the old original Samsung Contacts file so that you have a backup of the original file that is not used, then reboot.
Voila! Everything is fixed.
Clean app data
So I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 G930A that is having serious issues. The other day it was working fine, now it seems everything Google related is disappearing from phone. Under application manager, under system apps, it still shows the com.android.vending. However, it's a grayed out icon with Android man on it and bottom right of icon shows/says "SD" on it. Google Play Store, Music, Books, and etc. it's all just gone icon wise. I DO NOT want to factory reset and lose all my data. See, messages have been coming in too, but can't see them/access them because of whatever issue is going on. And a popup will apear that messages has stopped working. I downloaded the APKs for:
Google Services Framework (com.google.android.gsf_6.0.1-23_minAPI23(nodpi).apk),
Google Play Store (com.android.vending_17.8.14-all_0_PR_283242051-81781400_minAPI16(armeabi,armeabi-v7a,mips,mips64,x86,x86_64)(nodpi)_apkmirror.com.apk),
Google Play Services (com.google.android.gms_19.8.29_(040700-282600551)-19829022_minAPI23(x86)(nodpi)_apkmirror.com.apk).
I've tried installing those, and Play Store will open and say updating google apps...but then popup will appear saying Goole Play Services stopped working. I've tried installing those, and then rebooting the phone, and they just go away. Once I restarted the phone, under device settings under personal, the Google tab is gone to show the settings for phone, as is the option to add a Google account from the accounts tab (see attached image below). So does anyone know why my phone is doing this and how to fix it? Like I mentioned earlier, I don't want to do a factory reset. Is there code I can modify to fix this?

It's all good now. Was asking for a friend and they went ahead and just factory reset.
I'm at a loss.
Been searching forever for a solution.
The problem is that the Samsung account app keeps bugging me to accept the new terms and conditions.
I won't.
I don't even have a Samsung account and I never plan to get one.
I want the app and its annoying notifications gone forever.
I've tried to force close the app, but it restarts immediately.
I've tried to disable the permissions of the app, but it forcibly takes them back immediately.
I've tried to factory reset the app, but it auto updates itself.
I really want it gone.
Can I ADB uninstall it? If so what is the package name?
Or use Package Disabler which is what I do. It doesn't really do anything much in the background on my N10+ so I don't disable it.
Disabling it may lock you out of the Galaxy Store.
If it's being a menace clear system cache and the app's data. You can also firewall block Samsung updates which will shut it up.

Found the package name in your screenshot.
Was able to adb uninstall it.
It's gone!
Hello
From time to time I have issues connecting my GW4 Classic LTE to my Pixel 6 Pro A13.
Today I updated my Pixel's Google play Services to the latest beta. After that, I received this notification (allow notifications for GW4):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then I checked the notification settings permission:
It seems that I can't activate the switch because of restricted permissions (security):
Now The Galaxy wearable app can't connect to the GW4. Also phone can't hold the Bluetooth connection alive:
I had this issue before. Only factory resetting the watch solved this problem. But I don't wanna reset my watch every few weeks. Rolling back to previous play services changed nothing. Clearing play services app data also triggers this issue.
Any ideas? Thanks.
EDIT: I allowed the restricted notification setting like the following instructions. But still no BT Connection. "No notification s possible" notification came back. GW4 only uses WiFi or LTE
Unless youre prepared to deal with the downsides of it, never update core apps like play services to a beta....
My own Watch 4 got its connection wiped just doing an update to a "stable" build from the play store overnight
There is no easy fix, i have to reset and restore from backup....
My ultimate point here is i wouldn't actively invite mayhem by using betas....
