Hello all,
I just cannot believe what I am seeing!
I currently use CyanogenMod 7 and was sad because I couldn't find voice search in the Market.
After a quick look in the Web Market, I just learn that my Carrier (Base, Belgium) does not allow (see attached screenshot)
After Googling, I just feel alone because no one else reported same issue
Just installed Market Enabler and everything is fine.
I am just astonished to see that such a basic app is country-dependant
Same thing happened to me i just reflashed the rom.. and ofcourse wipe dalvik and wipe data/cache and it went away hope it helps

Lol! Funny thread
Why is that a funny thread?
Because you live in America and you have access to all Google services?
Please think about all other countries that have to cross their fingers each time there is a new product/service/application to know if that will be available in their country.
That's just amazing that we have no information on why we have access to a limited services and having restriction on basic stuff like voice search because we live in other country than America.
I guess voice search is tailored for each language? Hence the lack of support. I know voice search initially supported only English, more languages were added later on. If your language is currently not supported, I guess that would be the reason why it's not available in your country.
Google voice search work pretty well in english and french-dutch-german (our 3 national langages)
Just tried every langage with amazing results.
I had the same issue with YouTube.apk. Market Enabler fixed it again for me, but I remember Google having removed the region-related conditions on app-purchasing... what's up with that?
FIRST big thanks to that dev without his unofficial flipboard =] without this i could not update to official beta
i just installed his app , found and updated it

Edit:
perosredo made online spreadsheet for us.
It is really looking great and if we all can help out, this will be the best frees list XDA ever have seen.
But all, just keep it nice and clean.

And don't forget, every one is using there phone differently, we all use different apps so look at the list and remember that although some marked safe to remove, it can be something you want to use .
many thanks cooza,
this is right the stuff we need

What would be great is a google spreadsheet list with a small blurb about what the app is, and perhaps other apps it's related to since a number of these are going to be connected.

On my todo list
I did the same on my razr HD when I found a comprehensive list of what each of the apps are doing. I froze some apps on my note 3 already, but the ones I wasn't sure of wether they're needed or not I didn't touch.
THANKS!!!
Wow, this thread is awesome!!!
I was finding apps to remove/freeze on my Note 3 (SM-N900) as I was only getting 3.5 to 4 hours screen time on regular usage. And in order to save some battery!!!...
And I came across this thread!!
THIS IS GREAT!
MANY THANKS!

Also would be nice to have a guide about safe deleting of several ROM items like Wallpapers or Sounds (and other things) in a way to free up space for our own apps, and have a Slimmer ROM..
What dou you think?

Sounds great, but my first goal is to make some kind of spreadsheet with good information about every app that can be frozen and what the purpose is of that specific app.
And this will take a a lot time.
When done, we will see.

Why don't you just throw it up on Google Docs and iterate slowly - and also getting the community to chip in. Like so -

Would be also good to get a level of battery usage.
Like High Medium Low. Know it would take ages but maybe make a collaborative piece so we can all help out!

My experience with freezing is that it will save some battery, but don't expect miracles.
For example, without freezing i will lose about 1% a hour at standby and now i will lose less 0.5%.
But every % is one .
And i just hate it when i spent a lot of money to buy a nice expensive smartphone, it is loaded with bloatware i don't use and eating resources.

I couldn't find a list of apps that could be frozen last Saturday, but I found one via the forums search for the Galaxy S4. So if you really want to make a google spreadsheet, I would start with the S4 one as a template as it already contains a lot of information about apps that can be found on the note 3. I just checked through the spreadsheet to verify that I didn't freeze anything I need (I looked up which apps run in the background and then checked the spreadsheet before freezing an app). But having a complete list with info about what app-freeze impacts what other apps would be great too. Just found out this morning that I couldn't send SMS as I mistakenly froze the messaging app :silly:
Nice list...Now loving my new toy even more!

Google News Feed Alternative. if someone made a ROM that replaces Google News Feed with something capable of blocking all FAKE news sites like CNN MSNBC WaPo and the loke i would pay for it. I am so tired of the propganda and not being able to Opt out of this trash news.

Hey troll, you can apply "not interested in CNN stories" in Google feed itself. No wonder you have problem with "fake" news. Try better next time.
