No polaris/flipboard for our S3? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As above, is there no flipboard for our s3? And polaris doesn't seem accessible, only able to view documents using the viewer...?

Same here. Where did you purchase your GSIII? Mine is from t-mobile Germany.
Perhaps flipboard is only available to UK residents at this time???

I bought mine at MediaMarkt SIM free and also don't have Polaris & Flipboard.

I also don't have video maker! I tried importing it from s2 and galaxy note but it didn't work....
Anyone?

I'm in Dublin, Ireland. Got my Galaxy S3 with Three Ireland and it does in fact have Flipboard.

Flip board is probably an English-speaking region exclusive. I remember it used to be only available in the US AppStore for a long time on iOS.

same here. have neither of them on my singapore set.

any one with Video Maker included?
Sharing Videos require Video maker to make them smaller.... i tried the ones in the market but they suck...

Hmmm I guess Flipboard is exclusive to UK at the moment now? I just installed the extracted APK from the Flipboard thread, works but I can sense some slight choppiness at times.
Polaris is totally missing from my phone..
Missing good apps and bundled with crap bloatware from the carrier :x

Can you please tell me your ROM info from Settings > About

Is it just me or is Flipboard full of US content and hardly anything UK related, especially on the sport side?

In spanish manual figures that flipboard is available, but when you search for it in the phone, it isn't available...

Just as a tip, I took Polaris from a Galaxy S 2 ROM, works beautifully.

you can download flipboard in the application "more services"

flipboard is up on samsung apps.

Australian stock - flipboard installed by default but no Polaris office full version.
It seems like AU stock only as Polaris viewer and when you use it to open a doc it says to download full version for free from "more services" but upon searching the more services, I could not find it.
Anyone manage to get Polaris office full version installed by any means?

Same here, it is viewer only, which states that it is possible to get a full one, but it is nowhere to be found...<!

I would highly recommend pulse. I use that app more than anything else and on the tablet the split screen is really nice.

Try the following:
Feedly
Newsr
News360 (still in Beta but quickly getting better)
Pulse
My favorites are Feedly and Newsr currently. Several more are in beta stages.

thanks for these suggestions. i tried news 360. its user interface is nice .... and reminds me of flipboard somehow. before any updates from above apps mentioned , ifeel news 360 acts more reasonable for 10.1.

I love pulse. A preinstalled app that doesn't suck is great.
Pulse is okay, I hope flipboard comes to android.
It would be nice but I recently took a survey with News360 and they're currently working on Twitter/Facebook integration. It could possibly help me forget about Flipboard.
Man...if only I could code, I would have started working on an app just like Flipboard called Scrapbook. LoL. I wouldn't be surprised to see Flipboard appear on Android sometime after Christmas. I still wonder if Apple doesn't pay some of these developers not to work on both.
It seems silly as anybody who can program, can just take your idea, change it a bit and put in on another marketplace.
with that being said , flipboard to me ,also is far more better in providing iformation than any apps i tried on android os.
just by searching word 'cancer' , in these apps vs flipboard , one can clearly see the difference ....
hope flipboard coming to android soon ...

Another thing is that they need to make the content more customizable and give more consideration to the individual preference.

That is true.
Apart from the tremendous claim for their attractive layout, this is a real problem.
There is not enough personal customization of content, and most often, the status updates chronologically.
Ive never had the chance to play with it but having seen reviews, I would really like to use planetary on android.
I would pay 4.99 on the market for that
What do you mean there is no Flipboard-like app? Theres Google Currents which is superior
I was currently searching for planetary. Only thing i found , was this thread.
Can someone port it for android? Or am i asking something incredible?
I have flipboard installed on my tab. In the play store says isn't compatible but you can instal it if you download the apk from other source. Once installed the app says in the first time open that is not made for this screen size but works perfectly!

[REQUEST] Honeycomb stock Music.apk

Hi. I've just flashed the touchWiz UX recently and found that the original/stock Honeycomb music interface is much more beautiful. Can anyone send me the .apk file please.
Thank you in advance!
Google music from the market is essentially the same thing.

The issue is that the app is not avaible in the market for the European Samsung Galaxy tabs.
I would really want the APK since im in the Music Beta, but I have to side load the software to the phone and now to the tab.
MusicPlayer.apk/Music2.apk

What NOTEworthy apps are you going to get?

What apps are you going to get? I don't mean just general apps, i mean ones made for use with the S Pen.
Post your ideas below!
Here are some apps and soon to come apps for the S-Pen. Might be worth a bookmark.
http://www.samsung.com/global/microsite/galaxynote/note/applications.html?type=find
Samsung also has an app on the Gnote which will take you to a web site where you can download some Samsung apps for the S pen. I recall one being a crayon game app for kids etc. Also EZ pdf which allows you to use the S pen to fill out or sign pdf forms etc.
Edit: I did not click the link above from droidal. Those look to be the Samsung apps.

I really hope that they release iAnnotate soon.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using Tapatalk
iAnnotate would be good. I'd love to see a version of Polaris office like we had on the HTC Flyer that integrates with the Stylus as well so we could mark-up Word and PPTs as well as PDFs.
Also, after reading the CNET review, it looks like we may not be getting S-Planner initially so I'm hoping they have it in the Samsung app store for an optional download (or someone can make the APK work from the international version work with the AT&T version).
From all the reviews I have seen it seems Samsung/AT&T didnt include Video Maker, like they did on the international version.
I want to see if I can track that down right away. He is a video of what you can do with it.

An already awesome app that I have been using on my streak is Freenote.

Apps in the new Commercial

There is a new Commercial I saw just today. I was wondering if anyone can name the app where two (people with the samsung galaxy) notes are drawing on the same picture at the same time. The picture with the goldfish. Also which app was the one used to annotate a document? Either way, WONDERFUL Commercial!
I can't post video links yet, but it's called 'Samsung Galaxy Note - Meet the Note'
Yes saw it about time they show the feature set of the note.

So, I bought I galaxy s3, a few days ago.... Im currently in Portugal....
I created the Samsung account has being in Italy....bla bla bla...all good...I even manage to open the video hub app, and received the voucher of 5 euros for free from Italy.....I made all this being in Portugal, im currently at work in hear...
in order to open the music hub app and the games hub, I had to change the country of the samsung account to Portugal.....Now I can open the music and games hub, but when I try to open thje video Hub app, it says:
Video Hub service is not available on your device in this country........!!!!
WTF!!!! What can I do? I root the stock room and installed market enabler and nothing changed........
Please How can I put the video hub to work?
thanks
If they are doing a per-IP filtering for content distribution, there is very little you can do.
You could install Tor, but then your network would be crawling.
What do you mean by my network will be crawling ?
Thanks for the help

It means that your connection would be very slow.

Here in Romania it does not work either. pretty sad about this. maybe changing the samsung account country will do something? i will try later.
Doesn't work in Jersey, Channel Islands, either. Sounds like a bit of a con, not working in so many countries. The offer has timed-out now, so I'm not losing any more sleep over it.
