Google ears has been modded for the Nexus 7 and without restriction so I decided to give it a test run and see if it would go on the GS3 T999 and worked without a hitch, no bugs no glitches.
I figured I would post it up for those interested in case anyone missed it, I'm not looking for credit obviously as I only checked to see if it would work but please give this guy a thanks for doing a great job on this app/widget.
It does say for unsupported countries only but it's working either way.
MOD, My fault I should have known, thanks for moving this to the right section.....
Sweet thanks!

I use the widget, have been for quite some time. Is this the updated widget that lets you see your search history?

I see, I posted some more right above you. I don't know if this one has any region restrictions. Missed that part.
EDIT: I looked back and see people posting from Australia, Britain, Italy...etc. My guess is this version has no restrictions too. Link is above your last one. I like almost any widget that is transparent, lol!

Working perfectly for me on AOKP 7-15, darkside venom 05 kernel. Even tried setting reminders and they worked, except not for another day. Replied: "sorry alarms and reminders only support times of day, but not dates." Not a big deal. Love everything else about it. Much appreciated!

Just add the normal quick search bar widget and hit the microphone. It might ask you to select which program you would like to use, select Google (not voice search)
So, I hope I'm doing something wrong. The Google search function seems to work. Like facts and stuff. I have the cards. However when I ask it to do something like Set a reminder, it will say "setting reminder" but then nothing ever happens. No alarms reminders etc. Any thoughts? Im on Darkside Evolution v8. TW Rom.

Thank you for the apk, but I think that is the apk that is meant to be installed on phones because it doesn't give an option to login.

I guess I will have to wait until the next game to see if the audio streaming functionality is there. But my gut tells me that NFL has two apps...One for phones and one for tablets and I think that the apk you posted is for the phone. One reason is because the name of the apk includes the word "lite"
com.gotv.nflgamecenter.us.lite-216.apk

Since I updated to jellybean my phones performance has been top notch and I am very satisfied except for a few missing mods. I'm currently on stock jb and I was wondering if somebody could make these mods.
1) skip track from volume keys when screen off. (on ics the exposed installer worked but it no longer does on jb)
2) Touch wiz inverted/themed gapps like the messaging app.
Other than waiting on the rom shop to theme my phone. I feel these 2 mods is all that stock rom needs.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Alot of others would like those features as well. I've been reading quite a bit for the feature and just might go with the easy route and purchase a music player with the mod.
I'm hoping we'll have it soon enough. I've been using power amp since forever and don't want to switch.

Found this but it doesn't flash for our device, I'm guessing cause of the script or something is for the international version... maybe someone can look into it for our phone.

I'd also like to have that feature on the stock music player. I don't really care for any of the other music players. I would really like to see the AM/PM removed from the status bar on stock rooted 4.1.1 if anybody has a flashable zip for that
For the status bar you'll have to wait on the rom shop update by evil. He removes am pm and centers it plus you can pick the theme.

We had it in a lot if earlier roms, but it never quite worked right so it was pretty much scrapped. I think it was flickering when you turned the screen off, or it would do the animation then flash the homescreen (or whatever you were just looking at) right before actually turning off.
To my knowledge, quite a few devs worked on fixing it but were never able to. Now that we are on official jb though...I dont know.

so this update removes Navigation and incorporates it into the maps app, then tells you that the "maps navigation" is in beta and to use caution. nice

Well WTH! I wonder why it seems so sluggish on my phone. I just ran a quick quadrant test to make sure everything is running up to snuff and got a nice ~5600 or so, so no issues there. Everything else seems in line, and the old maps ran fine too.
So you don't find the frame rate to be slow or anything? I wonder what the heck is going on with my phone. Perhaps I should reboot after updating..

I'm wondering why the features besides caching map data found in labs appear to all be missing. I'm particularly missing the "measure" feature that allows me to measure distance as the crow flies between any two points. I'm also bummed about the bigger text option disappearing. Obviously there are lots of cool new features and I love the new interface but wish they didn't remove features that were already buried in the labs section.

This is a terrible revamp. We've lost starred places, easy offline caching, a separate nav app, on screen zoom buttons and scale, and the UI is more cumbersome for mapping/nav functions. The UI is more beautiful and is arguably better for casual info. But what is the point of maps? Beauty or real map functions?
For those that want the upgrade 7.0.2 attached.
This is probably the wrong thread but does anyone have the previous Google maps apk before the update to 7. I can't stand the new maps. I don't know why Google is insisting on becoming more like crApple. Neat UI but 15 steps to get to navigation, no dedicated way to lookup addresses in your contacts, once in navigation no way to check other route alternatives other than to back out of navigation, can't run navigation and then open maps to search for other places independent of navigation, and the list goes on. Why would you update an app and take away a bunch of great features.

I totally understand... Here's the old one. Just extract it from zip and install. I had to zip it due to xdas file size upload constraints...

Thanks for reminding me... I meant to go into activities to make or see if available a few days ago but forgot. Thanks for the conformation!
Like the new look!
