[Q] Anyone know where I can find the myverizon.apk?

Anyone happen to know where I can get a .apk for the myverizon app that was initially installed on the phone? I can't find it on the market... Need to use it to track my parent's data/min usage. Thanks!
I was thinking of grabbing the stock image from google but I have no idea where/how to extract the .apk from there. Any help would be much appreciated.

Here you go.

I needed the app to track my parents data since they only have 300mb's.

Samsung App Store

Is there any way to install the Samsung App Store on our Note 2? It comes stock on the TMO version and has a free update for the Polaris Office app available.

Same here, I'd be happy if someone can pull the APK, as well as the Samsung Video Editor too.

Do you have to be rooted for this to work?

Yes. And CWM recovery (or TWRP) installed.

Yes I'm in US and not rooted. When installed as normal apk I get a message saying the app is limited in my country. Funny as it comes as part of the stock TMO rom and works in the US.
I tried pulling it from the stock TMO rom with the same result.

No, S-Suggest is not the same. Samsung Apps has many more available apps, for example the updated version of Polaris which is not available in S-Suggest.

I downloaded the app but it tells me I cant use it in my country. Can some one please tell me how to by pass that?

Its an app that alters your host files to block adds in other apps and in the browser. Requires root. Have been using for years.

Is Adfree better than AdAway?

Not much difference, but for me Adfree keeps the host files better on reboots.

By using this, does it makes the ads completely gone or leaves a blank page where the ads were? I've never tried any

No blank page... Just the streamed ads are blank.

Give me a link and I'll take a screen. I don't know which pages have prominent ads as I've been blocking them for years.
On a side note I do have to edit the hosts file occasionally to allow certain sites, as taptu and feedly won't redirect correctly for some of my feeds if they are blocked.
Edit I'll add a few sites. Obviously the ads are blocked in apps too which is the main benefit I find.

Thanks so much for this app !

Thank you. After flash new ROM, I tried to restore my backup from adfree and after install it says that my version is too old. Then I found this thread. Thanks.

I have it working on mine, i had to update it over wi-fi but after that works on 4g with no problems

Look it up on 4shared.com and I think the 3rd or 4th one works

it works just fine just clear the cache and data and update the app

also make sure you do not have any ad-blocking apps running on your phone. This will cause Showbox to not run as well.

+1 on ad blocker, I also experienced an app not connecting because of the ad blocker

Either disable the ad blocker app, if you don't have one....go to system/etc and look for a file called "hosts", delete it and then reboot....should work after that

Do you know if I can edit the host file? If yes, how? Thanks

You need root and a root enabled file manager with editor.

I'm not rooted yet. Not sure if I can. Been looking at the forums but there is conflicting information. I'm on MJE for Verizon. 4.3. Can I still delete hosts and use showbox? It tells me there's a connection error when there's not one. Thanks.

List of apps safe to disable?

I've deleted a decent amount of apps but I'm sure there are more to delete. Anyone have a list of safe apps to disable?
