LG Smartworld Restriction

[Brian0928]

Just bought an LG G4 with the expectation that I'd have the full use of my phones features only to find that Verizon has disabled it's capabilities. Why is that? Does this frustrate anyone else?

There are several removed features.  SmartWorld is available via apk sideload.

I tried smart world, but found little of interest.

How do you sideload it? I called Verizon and Tech Support said they'd be able to put it in my phone within 48hours but nothing happened.

Verizon disables least popular apps. They monitor which are most and least used, so the least used apps get dropped while the popular apps are made unremovable -_-. It's very frustrating because I have apps programmed onto my phone which I will never use and apps I would like on my phone since that's the main reason I bought an LG but can't download it without permission. *angry face emoticons everywhere*
