So, in applications manager, select show system apps, and I found these three. How would we go about getting into them without root permissions, though? I bet the hiya integrated dialer is tucked away in there somewhere too.

I heard on another thread that Sammy released a universal system file that can be flashed through Odin for the s7 and edge. Idk how long it took them from release, but I hope they do the same for this device and I'll use that to get my phone to Samsung's version instead of Verizon's. I just wander then if wifi calling will still work...

I know this is normally a feature that is turned on by a csc tweak and have not yet verified it yet and I know this is not something Verizon specifically removed but i found the built in call recorder and is able to be turned on.

I did also just find the activity to identify unsaved numbers, hoping it is the Samsung caller id that was removed.

Good stuff! May I ask how you did that? Thanks!

I uae nova launcher and it can create a launch activity to any activity that is installed, even if the app is hidden.

Have you tested this yet? I turned it on, but it hasn't changed anything. Numbers still show as unsaved...

So here are the Samsung features on other variants that the Vzw model excludes.

1. Samsung cloud
2. Settings menu is Vzw not Sammy
3. Ram manager
4. Call recorder
5. Hiya integrated caller ID

Anything else you guys noticed yet?

Use a file explorer and go to /> System> Priv-app. You'll find apks for cloud and other apps.

Damn, it didn't. I saw the shortcut for my WD NAS cloud app and it looks similar and just says my cloud, sorry.

I also found the identify unsaved numbers and turned it on! Going to see if it actually works.

Yeah. I enabled the shortcut, but something is missing. It didn't back everything up and doesn't give me options to add more storage. While I appreciate the workaround, I just don't feel like it's the full experience.

The Hiya integration (Caller-ID/Block) doesn't seems to be on the verizon Note 7, instead Verizon loaded their bloatware version of Hiya that requires subscription. I think this is in the legally grey area and I hope they get fined big time by FCC.

Lol that's so messed up. They overwrite the app with the same exact thing only with a subscription attached to it, which the money from goes directly to them. They shouldn't be able to get away with that.

Anyone know how to reinstall a stock app. I installed the phone app from that priv folder and now my phone app crashes. Learned my lesson, but would like to avoid a factory reset.

I just demanded they credit my account $2.99/mo to compensate and they agreed to it. I have it in writing, haha. I explained how I thought what they were doing was illegal and would complain to the FCC.

You should still write them, tho it will probably do nothing. Isn't that an admission on VZW's part?
