I agree and there's no way to get it that I've found. Tried to sideload the apk but the app just force closes immediately. What Verizon has to gain by this I have no idea. But I have I feeling it has something to do with $$$ somehow!!

I've watched the crash after install. It's looking for libraries in the system partition that don't exist on the Verizon model. It seems they really really didn't want you to have an ad-blocking browser on the phone.

nice.
i've been using the opera browser and am impressed with it, though it does crash once in a while.
i also noticed we dont get the samsung music player either. bummer.

One reason is the Samsung browser supports ad-blocking with an app like "Adblock Fast", Chrome does not.

That sounds great. Does everyone think this is reliable coming from CS? I hope so.

Hello people. Just noticed I got an update for Samsung Internet 4.0 on my Galaxy S6 international (with Android M). You should try again installing it again to see if it is compatible now

Everybody. You can download the Samsung Browser on Verizon. I didn't for three different devices. All you have to do is log in to your device with a different Google play account. Register your device to that account using Android device manager and then download opera mini. Go to the Web play store and log in to the new Google account. Find the Internet application and then you'll be able to download it. If the link keeps rerouting you to the play store app then go to applications, play store and then there'll be an option for opening supported links and make that ask everytime.
