S-voice sucks, best alternatives? - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

Titles says it all. S-voice is pretty much useless imo. What if any are the alternatives?
I've installed Dragon now, which is neat but doesn't reply back in any way but it's much more useful than S-voice. I've heard about Nuance Nina, which is supposed to be awesome but not out yet
And of course I'm waiting for jellybean and integrated "google now". But I want something NOW

Did you by chance manage to successfully remap the double tap home feature to this?

I used an app call Home2 Shortcut in the play store to remap the home button.. but you can also hold the menu button to bring up Google Now without the app. I use my home button for S-Voice and the Menu button for Google Now.

[Request] Samsung Apps - Drive link

Article: Android Police - Samsung Apps Drive Link
For some reason, this app isn't available in the States, but can someone pull the APK?
http://www.multiupload.nl/SMXF1FQAUZ
anyone else try this or can confirm it work on our SGS?
Tried and starts up. Seems to work for all but the weather. That will only work if you have a TouchWiz based Rom with the Accuweather app installed.
yeah no weather, seems very buggy to me, navigation and music work so thats all i need. Hoping for a much better version soon.
Not sure how I feel about multiupload. One mirror has one file name another has something completely different.

Samsung Account APK request.

Does anyone have the "Samsung Account" apk that comes stock on the phone? Removed it because I didn't think I'd need it, but now I do. I know I can download a rom and extract it but I'm not home for a bit.
And yes I Googled. Couldn't find the correct one for Note.
Thanks for any help.

Thank you so much!!!!!
This just happened to me:
I got my new beautiful Gear S2 in roségold, and I wanted to install content from the samsung marketplace. I was always informed that I have to login into my samsung account to do that, and I wondered why. I went to my Accounts, and saw that the Samsung Account wasn't there. Then I tried to add the Samsung account, but it flashed only for an instant and didn't open. To check if the whole account adding thingie is broken, I tried adding an amazon account, and that opened without a hitch.
OK, back to start. Reading on the net that people did a whole factory reset for this little file shocked me out of my socks. Fortunately I wasn't wearing any.
The Reactivation Lock was also set, but grayed out!
I know that every program is an apk, so I googled for "Samsung Account APK" and there was this entry!
It turned out that the Samsung account app wasn't showing on my phone!! I searched with ES Explorer for it, and there it was. But it was a very old version. So I downloaded the newest from the apkmirror.com, installed it and VOILA!! Everything was back to normal.
Thanks again.

[Q] Best Equalizer App for Bluetooth?

I stream music though bluetooth to my home and car stereo and I was wondering if anyone had suggestions for an equalizer app that works best for the LG G4? Thanks!
Try "maxxaudio", worked for me.

or you can download "CM Apps" here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.maartendekkers.cmapp&hl=en
and then install "DSP Manager" from the list.
I prefer this one. Cheers...

Dsp manager isn't doing anything for me over Bluetooth. And i can't maxxaudio.
I searched for an app too and finally found one which does a great job for wired and bluetooth audio.
It's 'Bass Booster' by 'Disaxed Studios'.
I first thought because of the name that it isn't something special, but well, it does a great job.
Nice! Thanks for the update. I am checking it out right now and seems good so far.

Is it me or they've removed notification badge on sense home?

It works on my HTC M9+ Supreme Camera Edition, but I did not understand how to hide/remove the app drawer from the screens.
Is it possible only to keep the swipe up action to open the app list and remove the drawer icon?
