Preloaded App "Samsung+" but incompatible with my device - Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers

I have a US version Tab S3 and it comes with a "Samsung+" app out of the box. Upon clicking that app it takes me to the Play Store and I am greeted by a message that says "Your device isn't compatible with this version".
Anyone else here experience the same thing?

No, Ive actually used Samsung+ to contact support and it worked. Perhaps try the usual troubleshooting of clearing the data for that app, and/or disabling it and re-enabling it.

Thanks for the tip. But the app isnt installed on my device. Its more of just an icon, when I click on it it brings me to the Play Store. Then it shows me that the app isnt compatible with my device and there is no option to install it.

Perhals the link is for the wrong region. Open Google Play and search for Samsung+ and see if you can install it that way.

All fixed now. Play Store showed an update to the Samsung+ app (even if it wasn't installed on my device, only had the icon as a shortcut to the Play Store). Hit update and now its working.

[Q] no Google plus app in the app store?

hi all and thanks for reading. I can't seem to locate ther Google plus app. am I doing something weong
http://market.android.com/details?id=com.google.android.apps.plus
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA Premium App
thanks! much appreciated.
why can't we see certain apps like this and Netflix on the app store?
If you where able to click the link, and the market displayed the application, then it means you probably overlooked it during your search. As for netflix the new update wouldn't show for me either.

By default, it will not show up because it needs fine-grained GPS.. which the Nook Color does not have.

No, you are not doing anything wrong. Google has chosen to enforce device requirements on the app, so now it won't list from the market on an unsupported device.
Accessing from the web browser, you'll see the following:
"This app is incompatible with your Bn NookColor" Note: if you renamed your device, it may not show the same device name, but it's the same result.
Same with Netflix and other apps you can't get on the device. However, if you'd downloaded the APK before this, you can still see it on your market. However, I've not received any new updates, so either no updates or it won't update if not available for the device in question.

I have G+ on both my Droid X and NC (I just made a backup of the .apk on the DX using "My Backup Pro" and moved it to the NC). I have not seen an update on my DX since 1.0.2, so I don't believe there has been an update in a couple weeks.

Thanks But Unfortunately Didnt Work So I'm Stuck.
You can try removing your account from your device and then sign in again. I get this problem quite frequently on my Note , and Sgs2. I believe removing your account from any Android device requires you to format it.

Uninstall the updates of the Play store from "Manage Apps". Or replace your current "Vending.apk" from system/app with a 2.x version of market . Then everything should work. Don't worry, it will be updated to Play Store in few minutes.
go into settings select apps then look for market select it n clear data, iftht still dont work u can just download the file apk from the internet

[Q] Google Wallet?

I know this things has NFC, so will it be possible for us to get Google Wallet working on this?

I'm willing to bet not at first. I believe Verizon will keep it off so that it can substitute its own program that does the same thing. Then after a bit the devs will get it working for everyone to use.
I'm pretty bummed the device's for VZ are still shipping without Wallet...The previous "excuse" from VZ was that
...because Google Wallet did "not simply access the operating system and basic hardware of our phones like thousands of other applications," the service "needs to be integrated into a new, secure and proprietary hardware element in our phones"....

I can't see how that excuse given last December is still valid now...If i was a customer of VZ id be pitching a fit...only reason why i somewhat care is b/c the wife is. lol
btw has anyone tried the method mentioned here to get it on their device? Have to use the default android browser to do it evidently, so no Dolphin, or Chrome even...
http://www.androidauthority.com/google-wallet-for-verizon-galaxy-nexus-50922/
...How to Install Google Wallet on Your Verizon Galaxy Nexus Manually:
1. Open browser on your phone and open http://market.android.com
2. Look for Google Wallet
3. If the browser prompts you to open the Market, don’t. You should stay in the browser.
4. Once results come back, tap on the icon for Google Wallet.
5. Tap the Install button before signing into your Google account.
Remember, you are doing this from the browser and not from the Market app.
6. When you have already signed in, you will be redirected to the Market page in the browser.
7. Don’t be surprised to discover that you don’t have an option to install the app since it doesn’t support Verizon.
8. Tap the back button so you are prompted for the Browser or Market again. This time, choose the Market.
This will let you open the Google Wallet page through the Android Market. You will get the option to install already.

The method doesn't work, but there appears to be an .apk somewhere that can be installed.
I installed it successfully on my DINC4GLTE. It just does not have the permissions to allow use yet.

I tried the Nexus method (or very similar) on the nexus I had for a week before the Inc4 was released and it worked. Haven't tried it on my Inc4 but it's on my list... I'm kind of waiting for JB ROM or CM10 before I start messing around too much. It was sure nice (JB) for the two days I ran it on the Nexus!
Interesting article about Wallet working on our device:

Got it to install using the apk, but still getting the "not supported on your carrier" message, then it closes. Anyone with root try the build prop mod?

Yeah that's no good for us non-root people
Ignore this post...had an idea...was worthless, like my life atm.
For those that are rooted you can try the version from Modaco. http://www.modaco.com/topic/354635-region-device-root-patched-google-wallet-apk-15-r75-v6/
It will open but gives me an "insufficient secure element privileges for this system image (release keys)" error. I'm still researching this one.

Region Dependent maybe?
I'm not sure though but Google Now may be region dependent? I have the same problem with the recent 4.1.2 update here in the Philippines. I will try to install a UK firmware and well see how it goes.

Google now is location dependent thus, it wont work on some network/country/region... just like google wallet. It was working when I was in the US but not here in the Philippines.

I do not remember my phone saying this app updated. When I check the play store for Samsung Push Services I only see a Uninstall option no update. So I am guessing I have the update installed for better battery life but I am not sure how to tell. It does not look like you can open the app.
