It doesn't work . It's been discussed here a couple times lol. The only thing it manages to do it install a few unwanted apps onto your phone.

How can I get it?
Flash the factory image or just wait for the OTA (if stock). Depending on where you're located it could take a little while, some will get updates when they're announced, some get it later in the day/night.

Google said it'd be out today & I'm just sitting here waiting for it cause I wanna see if it makes the phone's touch screen more responsive... I've notice iPhones are more responsive than Androids and I hate making errors when typing when I know i clicked the right letter.. And I hate Swype..The unresponsiveness is making me want an iphone lol..
When I was running the leak, I and several others had notice touch was more responsive, also the driver was updated. I don't like Swype either, I just use the Google keyboard auto correct with my custom dictionary.
Also you may want to watch how and when you mention Apple products in forums, just a heads up.

Well if you were to root it make sure you follow that thread. Stay away from toolkits. You'll learn more and run into less problems. :good:
And as for the rogue app, if it's not solved then maybe the only way is to root it and freeze or delete it. I'm pretty certain you would be able to find it once you root but hope there are others who know much more than me come and help

for root vs840v9 you must enable debugging, connect to usb? choose Internet connections ower ethernet and start the script from New Z2 Root method by CubeandCube (thanks man!) See original: https://twitter.com/cubeundcube/status/490153209164349441

No, that has nothing to do with root. Check with an app like root checker. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joeykrim.rootcheck
