I just downloaded and installed it, it's working great! This is the new version that tricks the network into thinking you are using a Galaxy S III.

Thought I would share the link (I selected the mirror site for the full app):

Download the updated .apk for S Voice. Root not required.

Pretty sweet app, actually. I was originally confused and thought you could say, "Hi Galaxy" to launch the app (even from the lock screen), but it turns out that you have to have the app open and say, "Hi Galaxy"...which ostensibly just removes the need for you to hit the mic button every time you provide a command.

I'm on the Sprint Nexus and had zero issues with the install...enjoy!

It downloaded and installed, but would not open?

Odd, since you are running ICS. Did you try visiting the link while on your phone and directly downloading that way?

I mean it's kind of cool but the novelty wore off for me already, opened some apps and sent a text message but it kept giving me all these weird things when I asked what the weather was like and plus it was for New York and im in Virginia..

either way its interesting
 
When I tell it to play music its force closes. Its okay I guess.

Worked fine a day or two ago now I get network error, please try again. Guess Samsung really doesn't want us to test this out.

60% of the time, It works every time!
 
Evidently, the leaked version was a bugged test version. This link should help to explain, as well as provide the .apk for the newer and more polished version that is shipping with the S III:

Updated / Retail Version of S Voice

I am downloading it to my phone now. Will follow up if there is anything worth mentioning.
 
The version number mine shows is 4.0, what version is the new one?

Not sure anymore. The previous one I tried would not install...but another one I installed is also Ver. 4.0, seems to work fine and does not display the network error.

However, something about it does not feel like the finished version that is shipping with the S III. I understand that the voice is less robotic in the new version, also.
