More Services App Missing

[anon(573376)]

Verizon at it again, Samsung's More Services App is missing from the device. I was going to go look at some of the apps from Samsung that I have been reading about with the other carrier's GS3 phones and low and behold it is missing from the Apps screen. Why does Verizon just have to do their best to screw around with this device????

Is there anyway to side load this back onto our devices?

On this page, at the bottom of the review it says you can download the samsung apps that aren't preloaded

I doubt samsung would let anyone remove their software from their flagship device. If anything Verizon just wanted to add their own junk.

i think he's saying that the "more services" section (where you would need to go to install those items) is missing from the verizon version of the device.

Exactly, there is supposed to be a "More Services" app in the app drawer and it is missing on the verizon version. Directly from the article on the TouchWiz Nature Guide:

"Samsung Apps is included on all TouchWiz phones, and in amongst the various third-party apps you'll find a section called "More Services" (it's also directly accessible via the app drawer). In here you'll find a selection of Samsung applications that aren't preloaded on the device, but can be downloaded for free."

Oh ok. I thought u were expecting them to be pre installed. I got you now.

Wow this is getting ridiculous.

Luckily they put the apps on their site and I would have to assume you can sideload it via Kies
Samsung Apps

also the service ChatOn is missing. according the samsung website it is listed there but its not on my phone. I just wanted to try it out but I guess I will stick with GTalk

Samsung Apps needs to be loaded from Play Store and once installed the More Services is there. ChatOn is also in Play Store. So right now the only app we do not have access to that Intl Version does is S Baro.

I figured that was the case.

I don't see "Samsung Apps" in the play store. Is it named something different?

Didn't come up in a search, but I could see it in this link. Flagged as not compatible with my device, so searching is specific to the phone you have. My S3 will be here in less than 12 hours!

Only viewable on Samsung devices

Found the SamsungApps.com site and I can side load it but S Baro will be missing. Just another question is "S Suggest" the S3 version of SamsungApps? It just seems to be misssing the "more Services" category.

I have a verizon S3. Just go to www.samsungapps.com on your phone browser and download it from that site and sideload. Works fine on my phone.

Was going to say thanks but your url is mistyped and sent me to some shady site. Should be
www.samsungapps.com

Anyone know if S Baro is available for our phone? I can't find it on the Samsung site.
