Mine is still working. Wonder when this is taking effect?

Probably can just spoof your phone as a galaxy s3 via the build.prop and it should still work.

That program is a bust on my device anyway... /uninstall

I tried it and wasnt that excited about it. I was running GB and even flashed up to ICS just to try it. After checking it out I restored back to GB. When I had my 3D I tried vlingo, iris, and Jeannie. Not to impressed by any of them.

Finally just killed it on my phone. Was hoping to skate by on the whole Galaxy II thing but nope. Pretty obvious even if it's released for other Galaxy devices like the SII they will cut it off for use with other devices. Be smart, release it as a paid app, like $1.99 for other non Sammy models. Recoup those losses somehow

I agree! Put it on the market plus $1.99 hell I'll pay for it. but couldn't you just edit build.prop spoof sgs3 ?? I think that won't work! Anyone has tried spoofing it and it worked?

Wouldn't changing build.prop work ?

You would need to change a number of items. Plus how much of it is working. It does transmit what carrier you are on as well as carrier country. SIII not available on all providers atm, so I wonder if they blocked out by carrier and carrier country as well.

I found this fix that has a modified apk to make it appear to be coming from a GS III.

I uninstalled it, it didn't appeal to me.

uninstalling/installing an app is easier and less time consuming than manually changing your build.prop and restarting. also, changing your build.prop doesn't fix the problem, it patches the problem. the problem is with the app not your phone, so dont fix your phone -- fix the app.

I wouldn't say that because it fixed my problem

Working with the new apk, the one draw back is it seems I get more functionality from Vlingo itself than this app. IE car mode and opening of apps.
When I say play a certain song no go, fc. Using Vlingo it works flawless.

patching the app worked for me. Someone on this board posted a pre-patched svoice-patched.apk which worked very well to fix my "network errors". Works fine now, FCs notwithstanding. Not super impressed by the app, feels like a gussied-up vlingo. Ain't no siri.

i didn't say it wouldn't give you your desired outcome, but it didn't fix the problem because the problem isn't the phone -- the problem is the app. by changing your build.prop, you may have introduced other problems that you haven't triggered yet or aren't aware of (such as apps on the market that wont install on gs3 devices).

POssible finding for Force close fix for S voice...plz read

*NOTE PLZ READ FIRST not responsible, your actions are your own*
Did a little digging and found this from the GS2 9100 Section (not For our t989 model)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1679856
claimed to fix force close for S voice on GS2 9100
...any dev figure out how to port this over to t989 or if this can even work on ours?
thanks
S voice already runs perfectly using the zip in our theMes and apps section. You just have to use a Samsung ROM for full functionality.cm9 doesn't have all the Samsung apps so you will get force closes related to that issue

I installed SVoice on the stock ICS ROM for the T989 and the network errors kept occurring until I changed build.prop. Even after I changed that however, SVoice just kept FCing. Finally gave up on it and deleted it.
I have it working great on tdj latest tmo ics and thats with touch of color theme on top. Are you flashing zip or just trying to install apk?

I installed the zip via cwm, I removed .apks from /system/app to make room for 30MB voicetalk.apk, I set permissions, I changed owners, I re-installed via root explorer, I rebooted, and was still getting FCs. I was also getting constant network errors until I edited my build.prop to mimic the s3, but I was never able to stop the FCs.
I didn't change anything with root explorer. Just flashed and darkside cache wipe and rebooted. Voila..MAGIC!!(future voice)

[APP][LEAK] Google Wallet 1.5 - R87 - v15 APK from Nexus 4

Pulled this from the Nexus 4 dump and it is tested working on my Gnex. It is a slightly newer version than the current R79 v5, I can't tell any major changes so far. Reset the current version of the app before installing.

Are you supposed to flash or extract and install?
Extract and install
Thanks very much, It's been a few months since I've had a working APK on my VZW gnex and this worked without issue.
Now I can leave that old leather thing at home. Cheers!

did you request the refund through the app or on the website?
I don't know when this started, but all my cards show an "unexpected error" message. Last time I know it worked was October 7. I've had this problem for a few weeks. I can hit try again but just get the error again. I updated to this version and still have the problem. I'm on PA for VZW.
Has anyone used the app to request a Google Wallet card from Google? Like here: http://phandroid.com/2012/11/01/google-wallet-credit-card/
I haven't been able to find a menu where I can request a physical card. Maybe it's only on the source-built Wallet?

On the previous page someone said this version was much larger than previous versions. Perhaps it's in there, but disabled?

Not really, the Verizon variant doesn't have the notification bubbles on the lockscreen, shutterv sound in camera app and the launcher didn't have infinite scrolling. They all got there neat little added features.

The mod to activate the ability to do group messaging in SecMms is simple, but in my experience getting it to function as it's supposed to is a different story unfortunately. With help from a thread in the AT&T section I believe I got it close, but not close enough for me to keep it.
That being said, 4.2.2 roms I believe are fine with group messaging.

This was useful for "flipping the switch" in the SecMms.apk itself, but most of my experimenting came from pulling framework2.jar/SecTelephonyProvider.apk files from here, decompiling them, looking for where things changed (comparing a "base" version - I used unmodified Novella files as those were reported working - to the modded versions in the post), then looking at our own files, seeing where things differ between the unmodified Novella and TMobile versions, and trying to work in the changes from the OP of that thread. It was pretty close, but there was still some buggy behavior in my opinion for how I wanted to implement things (which differed slightly from the OP) - so I figured aosp mms was close enough for me and let it go lol. This is no small task - but far from impossible. For me it was a cost/benefit thing - it was costing myself too much of my own time for a benefit I could get elsewhere - but such cost/benefit analyses will vary from individual to individual

Wtf has this been addressed

Technically they're mixing old new and conspiracies. Obviously you'll get a virus by installing a weird app but if you have an Android you'd already be smart enough to know what apps are dangerous. Also the permissions the app has are shown when you install an app so you know if an app is actually a virus or something.
I went overboard but whateva

It is an issue, but the scare around it is a bit exaggerated. Basically what could happen is it's technically possible for someone to replace a real app with fake version that your phone would think is the real thing. However, two things would have to happen first. 1) You'd have to get the apk from an untrusted source (there's no evidence it'd be possibly to replace an existing app with a modified one in the Market) and 2) You'd have to agree to the permissions it's requesting (which would generally be expanded ones if it was doing something malicious)
For example:
You have AwesomeGame installed on your phone, and it's awesome. One day, someone sends you a link to an "update" that give you infinite AwesomeBOMBs in-game that points to a website. You go to HAx0RS1TE.com and download AwesomeGame, but a hacked version. You install it and Android still thinks it's the original, so it could have access to any permissions you originally gave AwesomeGame, as well as any new permissions you agreed to when you installed the update from haxorsite. So if AwesomeGame could send SMSs (so share your AwesomeScores with friends), the hacked version could also use SMS to send texts to subscribe you to Cat Facts.
If you get your updates only from the Market, you should be safe, but you should always watch out for apps suddenly requesting large numbers of odd permissions.

We just don't get it. Old Xperia L could play it, but the S3 get's no love on the game for some reason,.
Its an issue with 4.3 on the S3 and I don't know why they haven't been able to fix it. I did get it to run a while back but had to install an older version that I knew worked because I used to run it
Yeah the older versions worked perfectly but the new one is not.

This new versions been out for a while. I dont think theyre doing a bug fix.
Ps: does anyone know how to disable the update notification in the old versions. i cant play with data/wifi on because it keep bugging me to update to the new version. it takes me to the market and as you know its "incompetible"
If enough people email the dev it might motivate them to fix it. Especially if everyone starts demanding refunds and leaving poor reviews. No guarantee of course, but its more guaranteed that nothing will happen if no one tries to make it happen!
In app manager most apps have a checkbox for display notifications. Maybe that'll help?
