Thanks for your help. The problem appears to be that I mistyped my WiFi password and nothing was happening. When I erased everything and started over, using a different WiFi, my phone was completely setup and ready to use within 45 minutes. That said, my apps are still coming up.
Great! You are going through the normal process now. Apps will load up next and you will notice it. You are good to go.
