I just posted it on Note 2 forum but I think that's also interesting for S3 users. Hopefully some experienced dev has enough time to go further than what I could :)

Basic info about porting apps from S4 to Note 2 or S3:
The system dump of Galaxy S4 was leaked so I tried to find out the .jar and .so dependencies of each apk in order to make some apps working on Galaxy S3 Note2 and Galaxy S3.
1-I found out that some apps were specilly developed for 4.2.2 but that shouldn't something difficult to fix
2-As usual, most apps not only depend on .so files but also on .jar files from /sytem/framework (specially ext.jar, core.jar, framework.jar and framework2.jar. As I don't have a clue about modding .jar files I couldn't go further on my experiment :(

S Translator with voice recognition working
At least I managed to have a better S Translator with voice recognition working thanks to the necessary .so file.
However it still force closes if you tap on "history" or "preset phrases", it could be fixed if someone knows how to port 4 specific .jar files.
Edit:Updated so now you can flash it via CWM instead of copy&paste with root explorer.

Hey, I used yours and fixed it just to try it, here is a working .zip file to flash with CWM : https://dl.dropbox.com/u/98702838/Stranslator.zip
I deleted the UI prints in the updater script (I do that all the time, I can't help), deleted framework folder because it was empty, and moved the so file to /lib

Voice recognition works (testing in french and english) but it won't translate anything (I get the message : unsuspected error) on android 4.1.2 XXEMA2 ( I know it's not 4.2.1, just wanted to try for fun ;) )

Looking forward for the next version, and hoping someone will do the same for smart pause which I'm really looking forward for !

Edit : also added a "mount" code that doesn't rely on busybox, I've had some troubles using run_program( busybox mount ... ) with some people and my mods.

Edit : Working on 4.1.2, I just wasn't logged in my Samsung account.

Great work !

@lingvananci : as your quote before "Working on 4.1.2, I just wasn't logged in my Samsung account".
