   This will likely be my last Samsung phone. The last 2 software updates included the addition of 2 game apps that I did not approve. Makes me wonder what other unapproved items were in that update.

     @Big_Diggity If you're in to this sort of thing, you can use adb to force uninstall or force disable some apps. There's an app on FDroid called Package Manager, which helps you out. It doesn't require root.

     @Big_Diggity I get it. I'm not a Samsung fan, and I really don't like it when a company changes something after I bought it from them!

     @golemwire Ok, good to know.
     I was able to remove these junk apps that I didn't approve quite easily. My issues is with.....why did they show up on my phone after a software update? Samsung did that. Very frustrating.

     I love my SPen. I mean, it is beyond awesome. But I just can't subscribe to these kinda things.
