If you use an AOSP based ROM such as CM10/AOKP they will have Jelly Bean and one of the new things added is Google Now which I think is 10x bettery imo.

You could try Robin from the play store. It worked fine on my GS II Skyrocket. The S-Voice app would always crash.

Embryo ROM has S-Voice.

S voice sucks everytime I tried it (not sure about the S3 , but in SR that is).. Waste of time .

Agreed - I've used both on my S2, and Google Now is better. To be honest, regular Voice Search is just as good in a lot of ways!

S-voice...
I am not totally sure, but I believe it has to be a TW rom in order to work correct? This is more of a question for my own memory banks than a statement...
I use Google Now and it works really well. Just need Google Now to open apps and put events in calendar and the stars will align....

seems like CM10 peopel are having issues and TW based people are having success. PLease give some feedback for others to follow.
Hope someone gets it fully working soon. Been waiting for this..
Running well for a hacked version. I got a few errors trying to dl the free game. After the 3rd try it worked. Interface is nice. You can only play the free game 5 times before u have to buy it.
Heres a look at the games:

My q? is how does the in app store get updated and how will we update the app itself since it doesnt show up in the Play store list?
This is pretty interesting. Since I already bought a game from playstation mobile on my ps vita, can anyone confirm If I can download the same game through my existing psn account on a different device? Im assuming I could, but I dont trust them 100%.

Are you running a normal stock rom? I installed running a touchwiz jellybean rom (incubus release 8), anything I do causes a force quit.
The app itself may not be compatible with JB yet. You might have to wait till PS updates the app to work with JB.

Indesicive

Hey, so i have a question for all of you veterans on here. Im mildly experimental, so i just do the basic flash a rom here and there deal. However, im running hyperdrive rls14 with stock kernel on my Verizon s3. Since it gives me options to have beats audio, aosp email and clocks as well as other great features like the touchwiz motion controls, I've been running it for a few months now.But ive realized its heavy on my battery life, and my phone has been getting hot more often than before. I felt like that partially due to the amount of ram it takes up. So does anyone have any good suggestions as to what i run? Because ive heard things such as pure stock is boring and want to make a good decision.
You can still run this, but I suggest you try the things that you want installed, and those that you think you can live without remove them. I think that will make a huge difference.

If flashing something different I'd say check out Andybones bonestock ROM. Along with the AOSP theme. Slicker than owl snot as my dad would say.

Also = AOSP, right? Well there's Halo, nightlies, "less" lag, faster updates (currently at Jb 4.2.2, TW is at 4.1.2), no TW bloat, (customizable) soft keys, and a host of other things. It's not what AOSP has that TW doesn't, sometimes it's what AOSP does not have which is why folks choose to avoid TW.

[Q] Outdated Apps

My apps are outdated. When I bought the phone - pre-root, my stock apps were different. I notice that Google Maps, Calendar, and Messaging all seem to be the old version. I am running 4.2.2 and the latest version of GAPPS. Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

I guess I'm not explaining it well. The apps are similar to the versions I had on my Galaxy Nexus, not the S3.

Which GAPPS version did you download and install? HERE is a newer GAPPS (6/15) that I've been using with CM10.1, you may want to give it a try.
My apps currently look like the ones from the Nexus on the right and they used to look like the icons on the left....

That explains it...Before on the left you were on Samsung's touchwiz on 4.1.2 using samsung apps. Now you are on an AOSP 4.2.2 rom using aosp apps. The apps are similar but different and have different icons. The 4.2.2 AOSP rom is going to look like the Nexus.

Ah thank you! That was driving me crazy. How do I get back to the Samsung apps? I like the touchwiz calendar, messaging, alarm clock, maps, etc.

You'd have to go back to a TW based ROM.
Shoot...was hoping I could have both. At least I know what the issue is!

Keep in mind that other launchers and themes allow you to change the look of the icons as well.
I tried the TW theme but I'm still missing the actual app performance/construction. From what I read, I'm one of few who actually like those better!

Take a sgs4 with 4.3 turn it into sgs4 google edition

Is it possible we cant go back, knox is crap my battery life is crap , very slow touchwiz. I left nexus 4 for this? My gs2 was fine but I thought s4 would be the same but better I feel samsungs gone a bit apple anyway. can we turn the phone completely into a ge edition

Nope. Can't be done. The I9505 GS4 supports entirely different LTE bands than the GPE, the bootloader is different and the partitions are different as well. Plus, odin will not flash the PIT file you'd need to repartition it.
Your only option is to run a custom ROM based on the GPE ROM if you can.
The only way to run the stock, factory GPE ROM is to actually buy a GPE.

I've used jamals Google edition custom rom and it runs perfectly ...ifs stock with only kernel mod for X fat storage and something else ....can't remember. ..but it is a Google as it gets. ..looks runs just like a s4 gpe phone....given it try and if don't like then back crapwiz

I'm running a very slightly modified Google edition rom and the user experience for what I want is absolutely brilliant. It's the "untouched" one from xda here.
I don't miss the air view etc and the ir blaster is working.
I'm hoping the 4.4 one will be of this standard! I've abandoned my nexus 4 for this entirely to be honest. I like the big sharp screen and sd card!

That's actually the one I'm using. None of the gestures are there, no smart scroll etc as they are not part of the Google edition / stock android.

EDIT: I know it's not literally fully stock as the Touchwiz framework is there to enable the S-Cover, but it's a lot less boated than the full TW and is very close to stock

S Planner?

I had this app on my old GS3 running HyperDrive if I recall correctly. I just recently installed CM 10.1.3 and cannot find the app in the Play Store or anywhere else. Does anyone have the apk by chance or can point me in the direction to finding it? Google has failed me.
Anyone? I really miss the app

Sorry, the answer is no. There are variants out there, but the Samsung file is tied to the touch wiz interface. If you want it back, try a TouchWiz rom like hyperdrive rom, my daily driver. It is based off of 4.1.2 but very stable and gives you just about every feature you could want.

Gotcha. Thanks for the reply. I had hyperdrive previously but went back to CM for a change of pace. Any app that's similar that will sync with Facebook for birthdays and whatnot? Or any other cool features such as custom colors or what have you?

I don't think there is anything that quite compares to S-Planner, but aCalendar in the play store is not bad
