I got my tab in Norway yesterday and i noticed that the news and magazine section is not activated yet. Does anyone know when "Service will be available soon" is? Like 1 week, month, half a year?
Update: News and Magazines seems to be available to most people now, just open Readers Hub and click on Install. Personally i only got the update for Zinio.
If you don't get the install option try to go into "Manage applications" find the Readers Hub app and clear data, then start the app again.
Been trying to google an answer myself. Wished Samsung would come out with an official statement. It's one of the most anticipated things on my list.

from what i can tell they dont work anywhere yet (mines italian)
Not working for me in Malaysia yet as well.
Same here in Dubai. Firmware JPJJ1. Does anyone see them active using any other firmware?
Zinio isn't even available if you go to their homepage.
It was supposed to be relased this summer.
It appears to be available, as per some reviews. See PC World hands on with the Galaxy Tab.
So the question is, has it been pulled back due to some reason... or if it is to be made available in only select markets?
Either way, it's quite unfortunate, as Zinio was one of the features I was looking forward to in the Galaxy Tab.
German tab in the netherlands not activated either

UK: only Kobo e-books available, out of the 3 options in the reader "hub".
I found the reader hub apps, taken from the Tab, and I loaded them on Desire HD.
Zinio is working, and I was able to download the magazines that I purchased (I have a subscription from the time I owed an iPad). News papers are working too.
Why it is not working on the Tab ?
Zinio launch says Zinio beta - it is the same on Tab ?
I am waiting for my Tab to arrive soon, and I was looking forward to read my magazines from Zinio.
Could you guys upload those files and see if it is working ?
This worked! - showthread.php?t=827566 (I can't post links here yet)...
Perhaps it's the limited catalogue for Android/Tab formatted content that has prompted Samsung to hold back until later...

I've tried, this and it works.
If you install the zinio and press reader only, only the press reader app is available in readers hub.
If you install the readers hub as well, you'll end up with two applications "readers hub" and "ReadingHub", and in the later one. Zinio is available.
Downloading my Zinio subscriptions right now, unfortunately it crashed..
Update: Was able to download an issue now but the internal pdf-viewer doesn't seem to work so it is pretty much back to square one.
Hi there
can u please explain how you managed to fix this? im still not able to use this service :-(

It seems to be a problem with Zinio on the new magazines.
When I try to download the new issue on iPhone, the app crashes. The old magazines (October or November) are working fine - download and read.
Same thing happens on Desire HD.
Where can I get the apps? Any idea?
Link to apk:s are in the first post on this page.
I just bought a subscription and downloaded it... it seemed like the magazine would not load but zooming in a tiny bit opened the page?? It seems like the preview won't open/render properly.
I don't understand why this would happen. As I don't have any old subscriptions to try, I can't comment on the ability to load past issues. I wish Zino would fix this.... I can't be that hard to rectify!
According to the Norwegian newspaper Aftenposten, readers hub will be ready «in a week or two».

Same here. On Macworld from August there is no need to zoom - I think they change the format from that time.
Let's hope they will come soon with a proper release app.

My problem was with the current issue of Popular Photography.... I really hope they can fix it soon... I love the idea of using Zinio on my Tab

Updated, sorry peeps
It just doesn't work on Gingerbread apparently..
Also, samsung's taken it off of "Samsung Apps"..
Such an amazing app, its so less known!
Can't any developer help here? Please!
"apk" and the "desktop-application" file are both still available on the net,
and i strongly believe its just a minor bug(with the new camera) that's the problem, as the app runs fine(connects with desktop client and all) till the camera tries to load up

is there another app with same functions?
Free messenger service from Samsung. Works on Android phones, Samsung Bada devices, and feature phones. Also devices on other mobile platforms as well like iOS and BlackBerry. Also web client to work from PC.
Check http://www.chaton.com/
Check video on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMPEm147BPo
Reported first on: http://samsungtomorrow.com/1567/
Official Samsung blog: http://translate.google.com/transla...amsung.com/index.jsp&sl=ko&tl=en&hl=&ie=UTF-8
Rumored to be launched in IFA Berlin.
It's kind of like WhatsApp, but what I really like about ChatON is the fact that you can access it from the web.
I'll sure take a look, when it comes out!
Hopefully this is good sounds fantastic. We need more competitors rolling out messaging services to rival and or make a better product close as BBM.
sounds great.
When will this be available for download??
Wanna give this a try, hope it's good and catches on.

Market or Samsung Apps! Search 'ChatON' in Samsung Apps, or search for 'Samsung ChatON' in the Market, be sure to +1 it!
I was really looking forward to use this app but it seems its not compatible with landscape oriented phones. I have the Samsung Galaxy pro and it appears that its not compatible. I don't know how they didn't make it compatible with my phone being that it has a hardware keyboard and its mainly use for messaging. I hope they solve this because its not going to be my phone only but the two new galaxy pros.
Edit: I installed with the apk and apparently it works in landscape also. All that is left is that the verification code arrives in my phone.

APK in Zip file
Please note, the Zip is NOT flashable.
Market link is here too https://market.android.com/details?id=com.sec.chaton
Bizarre. I downloaded the ZIP and installed on my device, but the market link says it is not compatible with my device model. Um, it's installed and running. Now, I still have not gotten the verification code via sms, but it is installed and running. Way to go Samsung.
Edit: It actually says it cannot be installed in my country (I'm in Canada), yet when I opened it, it knew I was in Canada and set the country code properly.)

I installed it first time using samsung Apps (where the APK is from) and got the verification code instantly.
I've removed it and installed from the market (so I can get proper updates) and yeah.... no verification code
I say give it time, probably too many requests
Yeah, that's what I figured. It most likely is not available in my country right now as well because they are trying to "roll" it out over a few countries so there isn't so many requests for codes. Us "geeks" jumping the gun

i can't get the verification code but the app seems to be working on my nexus s without force closing. the market says my phone is incompatible
Do you guys have the latest car mode for galaxy with mirrorlink? I think its version 3 and its only available on note 5 thru Galaxy Apps store. I need the apk file. Thanks!
What you could do is download a rom and get it from there
Its not preloaded,it has to be downloaded from galaxy apps store.
I was going to install it & copy the apk to post here but it's got pretty bad reviews. Users reporting it screws up your home & back buttons even after uninstall. I could always just restore a nandroid if really needed but I don't feel like doing all that right now. You're not able to download it on your phone?
I can't. Im trying to port it thats why im looking for a copy. Thank you. I hope you can give it a try
Ok, here's what I got installing it. One is the app, the other is some remote installer? Carmodestub.apk has always been in my stock based rom prior to installing, not sure if it's required for Carmode to work but I'm including it anyway just in case.

You know you can just edit your build prop to n5 then download from Sammy store. The s6 edge car mode is different as well if you want that one

I can not install the file. I get an error saying file not installed.
I can not find the file on galaxy apps either. I have a Telus note 5, sm-n920w8.
Any help would new appreciated. I really love this app. Used it on my note 4 allot.
At first, I also couldn't find Car Mode in GALAXY Apps (UAE) so I called Samsung support and they said they would look into the problem and make it compatible with my device. I thought it's just another generic response, but less than 24 hours Car Mode re-appeared in GALAXY Apps with a slightly updated version number. You can download the APK file from the attachments. This version (3.xxx) is actually great for driving, and much improved from the Galaxy S5 (v0.1xxx) or even S6 (v2.xxxx). It is feature-rich now. It can work with HERE Maps which are more reliable and work offline, and can get location information from your contacts and calendar events (amazing feature) so you can easily select a person or event instead of searching the map. It stores the recent destinations just like a normal car navigation, and can also be configured to ask you if you want to save the parking location when you exit the car mode.

Thanks for and info. I still don't see it in my Galaxy app store, so I downloaded your provided APK. However, when I run the app, it tells me there is a new version of Car Mode and I need to update to continue (see attached), then dumps me out.

It's most probably because of the different ROM. I live in the UAE, and use XSG (open/unlocked) ROM. If you use a carrier device, you'll always get different things here or there. I am not sure you can flash other Samsung ROM's if you use USA carrier devices (different model numbers from the international version SM-N920C). However, just like I mentioned in the beginning of my post, you can contact Samsung and ask them to make it available. They did this in my case (or maybe it was just a lucky coincidence).
You can also try a direct link to the app in GALAXY App store, like this
Code:
http://www.samsungapps.com/appquery/appDetail.as?appId=com.sec.android.automotive.drivelink&equipID=SM-N920C
(change SM-N920C to your model number)

Good. I think we should (cautiously) give Samsung credit for their responsive support.
Also, may I ask you to upload the APK? I may give it a try myself but mostly for other people who may search the forums for it.

How do I get to the original downloaded APK? I searched the phone and only found CarmodeStub (that comes preloaded) and CarModeRemote, both of which are only a few hundred kb is size, not the 15 MB claimed in the Galaxy app store. If getting the APK requires root, we are out of luck as I'm on Verizon.
I'm starting to see more reviews for the app in the Galaxy app store though. So hopefully people can actually get to it now.

You can use an app like ES File Explorer File Manager which you can use to back up any app. There are a lot of similar apps but this one provides better names for the backed up apks (App name+vesion).

That's what I did (though I used Root Explorer instead of ES), searching everything I could for "carmode", and I got these reaults.

OK, you didn't find it because the apk name doesn't include the word "car", it's com.sec.android.automotive.drivelink
That's one reason why ES Explorer is much better. It is not simply a file browser or manager. The APP function is ES is a complete App management solution.
Hi,
If you open Galaxy App Store, you will see that yesterday, samsung has updated S-Voice.
Did you guys see it?
It may be a start for Bixby Voice?

I updated but it didn't help Bixby.

Same here.
Which means we with T-Mobile devices don't get to use voice commands to answer or reject calls. One of my favorite features has been left out! WTF?!
Really REALLY not happy here... I use S-Voice CONSTANTLY.... I have (or had) the ICON on my desktop front and center... for years. Seriously use it 4 or 5 times a day to directions, to make calls, to make appointments. WTF ????
However... and this is the wierd part... It WAS on the phone until the latest update. I bought the phone Saturday.... migrated with switch from my S5... USED S-Voice Saturday evening... noticed an update had been postponed... did the update.... then S-Voice was gone. Again... I repeat... WTF????
I may be dead wrong and talking out of my a** here, but isn't Bixby supposed to replace S voice?

I believe that is what Samsung intends to do.
No S-Voice on Galaxy S-8+ which affects Gear Neo smart watch
I noticed that when I went to reply to a text on my smart watch, a Gear S2 NEO, there was no option to voice text, in fact S-Voice is no longer there at all. I could not find in the Galaxy Store or Play Store. This is a very valued feature on the smart watches to answer your text messages vs templates or emoticons. Please let me know if there are any other options or please bring it back!
I went to the previous link and a message appeared saying I could not download. I went to apk mirror and found this

I was able to download and install. After the install it said it had to update the voice service framework which it automatically downloaded and installed.
