Samsung Apps, More Services, and Play Store? - Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)

Hey everyone, I'm new to the android world and to these forums. I just got my Galaxy S3 on Sprint and so far I'm loving it. I just had a question about what the difference between these App providers is? I don't really want to create a Samsung account, so I seem to have no use for this app. Is everything they offer also available on Play Store? Also, what is the More Services app?
Sorry if this has been asked before, I tried searching but couldn't find it.

*bump*
any insight on this? i'm thinking about just deleting samsung apps... but I don't want to regret it later

The apps on the Samsung Apps store are very repetitive (at this point) from other markets. But hey...the more apps the merrier...

[Q] Change Google Play location

Hi All,
When i was recently in the US i was given an HTC EVO VIEW. I have now taken it back with me to the UK but unsurprisingly my Google Play application is the US version. I am using the same Google Play account as i do on my Xperia Neo which is the UK version so the account isn't the problem.
I have factory reset the device in the UK and the 'Android Market' app that is preinstalled is still the US version (and so is the 'Google Play' app that it is updated into) which means that some apps are not available, some say they are not compatible due to location, and everything is in $$$ instead of £££.
I would greatly appreciate it if anybody knows of, or could work out, a solution. I am a bit of a novice at this so a bit more of an explanation may be needed than the avaerage person on these forums would require.
Thanks,
Matt

[Q] How to root GNote 2 N7108 chinese version?

So... recently i've been given a GNote N7108 (chinese version), but the phone doesn't has any google service, thus, i couldn't sign in my Google account and therefore no playstore, no contact sync, no anything...
Can anyone tell me how to root it and install Google service or install custom rom as long as i can use it like other international phone?
i'd be grateful if anyone could help me thz in advance.
are you sure it isnt a clone, ive seen alot of good clones of the galaxy line. I only ask because samsung would never leave out google, not even on their lq phones. Does it actually say "galaxy note" on the back cover and "samsung" at the top of the screen?

[Q] No Google Play Services

Hi,
I recently bought an android phone from overseas (China) and when I was trying to set it up I noticed that there are no Google Play services meaning there is no Play Store, Music etc, I can't sync my contacts or emails and do a lot of the stuff associated with Google.
The Phone is an HTC Desire 5088 (I think its the Chinese version of the Desire 510) running Android 4.1.2. I really just want to install all the Google services so that the phone runs like a regular android phone.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Also I know this may be the wrong place to post this but would anyone be able to point me in the right direction as to how to root the device? I have tried looking everywhere but can not find anything.
Thank you.
Maybe this is due to ban on google in china.
Solution could be to root the device and flash gapps package.
Even better would be to find a chinese forum for your device and see how those guys do it.
Use google translate of course.

[Q] Need help locating Gear Fit SMS and other apps by Gevorg Sayadyan

Hey there, got my gear fit the other day and was browsing the list of apps you guys have. I found a few I wanted but I wanted to wait a day. The next day ALL of his apps AND Gevorg Sayadyan were gone. I also can't figure out why. One was Gear Fit SMS, Gear Fit Note, and the other was Gear Fit Media Player. All the apps were created by Gevorg Sayadyan and I cannot find a way to contact him although I messaged someone with the same name on Facebook with no luck. I can't find the apk for any of those and if anyone Can help me I'd be forever grateful. Thanks everyone!
In accordance with recent sanctions in the Crimea region by the United States government and European Commission, Google removed his developer account and all his applications.
His apps still available on Yandex.Store.
Thank you so much!

I was able to find and purchase his apps. Thank you so much! I can't believe they removed his account and apps. That's messed up.

Chinese sch-p729 Galaxy Mega 6.3

Hi Guys,
So I've bought the Chinese only SCH-P729 Galaxy Mega and have brought it back here to Australia. Problem is the Google Play store won't open (along with some other apps). I was wondering if there's any support for this phone in terms of rooting and installing another rom that might work? Or perhaps a work around for getting Google Play Store to work.
Can somebody else please explain to me why Google Play won't open as well? Cheerse
Thanks Guys.
