Sprint version no LG Gallery or music app?

[BB_Bmore]

I'm wondering if LG had done this as part of the obvious slimming down of the skin or did something go wrong when I used LG backup and restore to transfer data from the G5 to the V20. Basically I have no stock LG music or gallery app. It uses Google photos and Google music which seems strange seeing how I can see both gallery and music apps in the tutorial photos within the software. Please advise and thank you.

Edit* also missing is the LG messaging app. Google messenger is preloaded.

Your one of the only ones with a sprint phone right now so it might me a couple days to hear from someone. When I get mine Monday I'll see if it's the same.

How are you getting yours on monday doesnt come out on sprint until the 28th

I went to the store yesterday, they had them in stock but couldn't sell any. I plead my case about having the note 7 and safety concerns, I'm not really too concerned but I had to try. Anyways the guy called his manager and he said no, but i can come back Monday and get it. I guess we'll see, but I'm not leaving the store without my v20 tomorrow. I finally be done with this note 7 fiasco.

Well post if you get it then i can try getting mine early too.

Dumb question...can you install the Samsung music app on the LGV20?

I have no clue I'm hoping an update comes soon before or after the launch of the sprint version Friday in hopes that it provides the missing stock apps from LG.

That's bizarre, different carriers, but I looked at the AT&T demo model and ALL of the apps you mentioned were there

I walked into a Sprint Corporate store today and walked out with one. The stock gallery and music apps appear to be there.

Why do we have to pay the taxes on the spot and not have it added to the next billing cycle?

Because we're $20 trillion in debt!

Most would be happy by the absence of these apps!

I walked back into the store I bought mine from and looked at another unit. Same thing apps missing. I also spoke online with some other sprint owners who confirmed the apps are missing on their phones too.

Unless they are lg users who understand how much better they work with lg devices seeing how they are built specifically for the devices. My main gripe is the gallery. It has great options that tie in with the camera.

The Google apps are just too plain. I like being able to change the background and theme in my messaging app. The gallery app is more complicated than it needs to be. Most manufacturer specific gallery apps are simple and more organized.

When I open my gallery all I want to see is my pictures and the ability to open up different folders. I can probably get used to the gallery though, but the messaging apps kind of sucks.

I work at Sprint, and we got our demo yesterday along with 2 to sell on the 28th, but I don't remember seeing those apps installed. I'll double check when I play with it today.
