Samsung App Store - Vibrant General

So, is there a way to get the samsung app store working on a Tmobile Vibrant? Ive seen a glimpse of it from the camera update menu but never seen an apk posted or anything like that. Sorry if this is a stupid question. I did try searching and couldn't find any relevant info..
Thanks in advance!

It was working on one of the 2.2 roms based off the i9000. I think it was the gothdroid kang or aospish rom from anderdroid. I still have it somewhere I think. Ill check.

Not to sound stupid, but I was never aware that Samsung has its own app store. Are the apps worth it? Any free apps? Thanks in advance.

Samsung has a app store?
How do I get it... ill keep a look on this post
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

yes samsung has there own app store similar to media hub and readers hub. its in /system/app on tmo froyo vibrant roms but only to update native samsung applications. on the i9000 its an actual app store with a few goodies in it, mainly asphalt 5 hd, which is free as are all from what i have seen. eugenes macnut series, which is based off the i9000 froyo roms has the actual app store.

New Market?

I just restarted my phone and the market is now different. From what I understand it's the froyo version of market. Maybe a good sign for us?

Don't get too excited, every phone is getting that market update. You're right though, it is the froyo market-style.

Sense port? Whats up.

I heard about the sense port and even saw it up and running. I really want sense and tmobile doesn't even have a regular running sense UI on a phone. The closest thing is the mytouch 4g or the slide with expresso. I am actually trying to trade my vibrant for a g2 because u can port sense onto that. I really want it. Any word y'all?

updated netflix app

didn't see this posted here in the OG galaxy forum yet, but I just wanted to give everyone a heads up that the latest version of the netflix app (released 7/20/11) is working on my OG galaxy tab (sprint CDMA version, running gingerbread, NOT rooted). This is no gaurantee it will work on everyone's tab, but i just thought i'd share ymmv
you can download the apk from this thread. then just sideload the app.
Does the latest version still ask you to upgrade?
Too bad I already cancelled my Netflix subscription. Just wasn't using it enough to keep it.

upgrade the app? no, it didn't ask. this is the latest version - 1.3.0 - that is available in the market.
Works great on my tab ...LOL grainy but cool...now I got **** to watch at work...
Sent from my SGH-T849 using XDA Premium App
yea, its a little grainy for me, but certainly watchable. then again, i'm not terribly surprised the quality isn't optimized on a device that isn't officially supported
Works on Stock 2.2 VZW CDMA!! Finally!
Thanks for posting.
Works fine with Roger Gsm tab running leaked latest Asian gingerbread
Basically the new Netflix app we can use blows too choppy not tuned for the tab

On my tab its choppy for first 10-15 seconds , after that it is as clear as on my ipad.
I got a rogers tab running leaked JPD stock rom.

yea, it definitely needs work, but i'll take initial choppiness and a touch of lag over total nonfunctioning.

New market version

I just felt like complaining a little and wanted to know if anyone else is annoyed with the new version of the market. The ui took a little getting use to, but my biggest complaint is how screwed up the reviews of apps are. The most recent are not at the top like they use to be. Now its a mix of anything from a week to a year old. We can't make a decision about an app based on reviews of versions that are outdated. Sorry, just had to vent.
We're comin from a pure power source.
Nope I love it, it's the bees knees.. :-*
Sent From DEEZ
I hate the fact that it will show an update is available for the app however, unless you have multiple and can therefore click "update all", you have to wait at least an hour or two to select update.
Indeed. The reviews are the only thing I'm not liking. It doesn't even make sense. I like checking the mentions when an app gets an update and this totally kills it. There is no structure / reason to it.

Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
I hate the fact text and background color is so similar. Also stars are gray on a light gray background, makes it look like theyre missing. Make em gold like they use to be.
Not impressed too much by it.
They must've fixed the reviews, now I see the most recent ones first and in order

It's fine; I have no issues with the new market and like the look better than the old market. Other than that, it is the venue through which I get apps on my phone so in that respect it has not changed for me.

I thought this was an OTA update, do we need to load the .apk file to get the update, or is pushed OTA
You don't need to be rooted. Just put it on your SD card and use a file manager to install it.

I guess my post should have been clarified, the only way to get the update is to load the .apk file. There is no OTA push for this new market

Hmmm... Does he have a lot of apps on his phone? Perhaps apps running in the background are bogging down his phone.

No not many and he's always killing the apps. His main complaint is that when he open up messaging it takes a while to open up

I think he would back up his apps, and move to a stable ROM offered by one if the dev here

To keep things closer to your dad's experience there's FishmanMod which is an update to a very popular Bionix -v 1.3.1 Rom. It will fly compared to stock but everything works and it won't be totally unfamiliar to the dad.

be careful, the GS4g and Vibrant may look the same, but their flashing procedures are a bit different. read up and then do it.
Adding on to xriderx66, use this guide if you need a reference when backing up & flashing a custom rom to your dads phone... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=849028
Since he's already rooted start from: "OKAY, I HAVE ROOT - NOW WHAT? BACKUP!!!"
If your dad is happy with the stock ROM (with the exception of the speed) then I would definitely suggest going with something like the fishman mod that is based on the stock 2.2 ROM. That'll make sure he still has all the stock apps and such. I used Bionix for a LONG time and was always really happy with it.
I'm gonna show him bionix and see what he says
Sent from my galaxy s 4g using XDA app
I suggest showing him Fish's version of Bionix for the mere reason that Fishman is supporting it daily, while Team Whiskey is no longer.
Fish is good at what he does. My name is Woodrube and I endorse this message.
