It's a Samsung app cooked into the rom, if I'm not mistaken. You probably have to update that from it's own repositories because I cant find it in the play store. My guess is it's looking for a dictionary. Have you disabled any of the Samsung services like their app store?

I think you have solved it!

Yes I did disable the App store.. (for wasted resources)

I'll put them back if I can....

Many thanks for a speedy reply

Wow.. yes. It will give a dictionary use for a word in englsh .. or do a translation from one language to another. I just dug out a spanish phrase book and hovered of some words and the english equivelant shows up.


Apparently it will do OCR.. need some time for that though.

Stoked for a free useful app on holiday overseas.

Chuffed!
