Samsung Apps

Samsung Apps shows just 5 apps for my firmware (S5830SERKPE).
Here is how to get some more apps in the "Samsung Apps" - app
1.) install and start root-explorer
2.) click on Mount/RW
3.) navigate to /system/csc/sales_code.dat
4.) set permissions to Write outhers
5.) Just replace the text in the file to XEU (I had SER before)
6.) save
7.) set permissions back
8.) exit (phone will reboot, at least that happend to me)
Now I see 12 apps

Can't Send Texts After Root

I used this method to root my phone:
Copy the CWM_SuperUser_v3.0.7.zip file to the internal SD card of your phone.
Turn off your phone.
Boot your phone to ClockworkMod Recovery by pressing the Volume Up, Home, and Power keys together. Release them when the screen turns on.
Use the Volume buttons to navigate and the Power button to select an option.
Select Install ZIP From SD Card > Choose ZIP From SD Card and select the CWM_SuperUser_v3.0.7.zip file that you copied to your phone earlier.
Once you have flashed it, reboot your phone by selecting Go back and Reboot System Now.
Your phone is now rooted but you still need to install BusyBox on your phone. You can get it for free from the Google Play Store.
Run the BusyBox free application on your phone.
It will prompt you to allow root access. Select Allow.
Tap the red “X” in order to close the dialog window that will pop up.
Allow BusyBox to scan your phone.
Tap Install to install BusyBox and make the necessary file changes.
Update your su binaries by doing the following:
From the app drawer of your phone, open the Superuser app.
Tap the wrench icon on the upper corner to go to the app’s settings menu.
Under the General section towards the end of the list, tap “Su Binary”.
Select Update and you are done.
After I did this I was able to send text messages, but when I woke up the next morning I was no longer able to send texts. Does anyone know how I get my phone to send texts again? And yes I rebooted my phone, and unrooted it and rooted it again. Still the same problem occurs.Thanks

Press thanks if helped

2) Select USB mode under Options
3) Click Scatter-loading & select scatter file you downloaded from above links.

5) Turn off the device fully, remove the battery for 5 seconds to be sure n re-insert the battery but do not power on device.
6) Attach the usb cable with PC but not with device
7) Now click on "Download" button on SPFlashTool, it will show searching for device in lower panel.
8) At this time, attach the cable with device in power off state
9) Now as soon as u attach the cable to device in power off state it will show a progress bar in lower panel n then a dialogue which states successfully flashed n another dialogue showing green colored ring n stating Download OK.
12) Close the dialogues, close the program n reboot the device by pressing power key.
STEPS TO ROOT DEVICE:

Samsung Galaxy S7 (SM-G930P) Root & Xposed Framework install Without Voiding Warranty

Samsung Galaxy S7 (SM-G930P) Root & Xposed Framework install Without Voiding Warranty
- So there are many posts about Rooting the Samsung galaxy s7 where some people will say it trips knox and others say it's to complicated.
- This easy guide includes resources from other XDA developers whom I was able to use to root my Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 and install Xposed Framework without voiding my warranty.
-You can try what ever firmware you are on, however there are many reports of issues on the new firmware. when i first did it on the newest firmware i got a boot loop but easy to fix just by re-flashing the firmware with Odin.
- Unfortunately this method will erase all data if you are not currently in PE1 firmware
- You will not Brick your phone with this method, because it is very easy to just reflash the firmware with Odin.
Here is the link to download a RAR with all of the nessecary files!
-->https://mega.nz/#F!Egt23TLa!NrynMKoUvwngnsse2zo6hw<--
-I am not responsible for any damage done to your device through any steps taken tword rooting your Samsung Galaxy S7
-You will loose all your data if not currently on PE1 Firmware
- I am not to credit for all of these procedures, I only figured out how to Enable Tethering which im sure has been figured out by someone else as well.
The RAR file attached has ALL of the files you will need for the whole guide.
-So download and extract all of the files from the RAR
-Or you can follow each link to download the necessary files
1.Preparing:
1. Install Samsung drivers:
- Extract the RAR file "SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.zip"
- Run "SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe" as Administrator
- A USB Driver instillation wizard will pop up
- Click next
- Select the proper language and country or region
-Select next
- Set destination path, or use the default
- Then click install and let it work its magic
2. Install ADB:
- Execute (as Administrator) the file "adb-setup-1.3.exe" from the attached .rar
- It will ask you a series of questions, hit "Y" each time and hit enter
- Then it will bring you to a diver installation wizzard
- Click next
- Click finish
- You have successfully installed ADB
2.Flashing PE1 Firmware:
First off this method does require PE1 firmware. So here's how to get your Samsung Galaxy S7 to PE1 firmware:
-You can get the PE1 firmware in the attached RAR file
1. Connect your Samsung to your computer via OEM micro-usb cable.
2. Power down you samsung
3. Once powered down, hold Volume Down, Power, and the Home Button all at the same time
4. You will get a blue screen that says warning, read the text and the press Volume Up to select "Continue"
5. Launch Odin as Administrator
6. In Odin click the button "AP"
7. Select the "AP_G930PVPU2APE1_CL7925126_QB9448520_REV02_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5" file
8. In Odin now click the button "CP"
9. Select the "CP_G930PVPU2APE1_CL7925126_QB9448520_REV02_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5" file
10. In Odin now click the button "CSC"
11. Select the "CSC_SPT_G930PSPT2APE1_CL7925126_QB9448520_REV02_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5" file
12. Then in Odin, press the botton that says "Start". Odin will begin flashing the PE1 firmware.
13. Once Finished, Odin should say "Pass", and your Samsung should then boot up to a first time setup procedure.
3.Before you Begin Rooting:
Once You have finished flashing PE1 firmware you should then download the following apps to your Samsung:
-Package Disabler Pro or EZ Package Disabler (both will do the job)
-Flash Fire
-Build Prop Editor
If you use Snapchat, now is the time to download, install, and login to the app
-Snapchat denies login to rooted andriod users, especially if Xposed Framework is installed.
4.Rooting:
Now that you have the pre-procedure done, go to the link directly below and start at "Here we go" for the rest of the rooting procedure instructions. Necessary files for colormedroid's precedure will also be in the attached RAR file.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-galaxy-s7/how-to/sm-g930p-root-t3410604
Once you have finished rooting you may follow the next steps.
5.Installing Xposed Framework, Xposed APK, as well as a tether mod
-Go to the link below and click on the tab that says "CLICK TO HIDE CONTENT" under the header "INSTALL XPOSED"
-Follow psouza4's steps to Installing Xposed
-However I have attached a better APK for xposed.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...-to-notes-root-install-xposed-unroot-t3411039
6.Installing Xposed Module X tether for free native tethering
1. Go into the Xposed app
2. Tap on the 3 dashes in the upper left corner
3. Tap on the tab that says "Download"
4. Search for the module "X Tether"
5. Tap on the X Tether module
6. Tap the tab that says "Version"
7. Tap "Download" on the newest version
8. Then go back to the panel that has the option "Modules"
9. Tap the check box next to the "X Tether" module to activate it
10. Reboot
11. Bear with me here is gets a little more complicated
12. No that Xtether is installed and activated, we are going to edit a data base file to be able to use the native mobile hotspot
13. Download SQLite Editor app from the playstore (it does cost money, and there are probably others that can do it but this worked for me) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.sqleditor&hl=en
14. Open SQLite
15. Tap the tab that says "Files"
16. Navigate to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases
17. Then tap "telephony.db"
18. Then tap "carriers"
19. Look for the 2 lines that say "APN2 LTE internet" and "APN2 EHRPD internet"
20. Down those lines under "type" they both say "default,mms"
We will be changing it to say this
21. Tap on "default,mms" then tap the pencil in the upper right of SQLite. This will enable you to edit this setting.
22. Scroll down until you see the type "default,mms"
23. edit this to say ""default,mms,dun"
24. Tap save
25. Do this for both "APN2 LTE internet" and "APN2 EHRPD internet"
26. Exit SQLite and restart your phone
You can now enable the hotspot as if it were part of your service plan. If you go into to you settings>Hotspot and Tethering
Happy Tethering

Did you make sure to include the volte icon and cpu governor fixes? Don't use the debloat zip just use the fixes for those on any other build.
