Samsung may have suspended its rollout of Android 4.3 Jelly Bean for the international Galaxy S III due to a number of frustrating issues, but that hasn’t stopped AT&T from releasing the update to customers in the United States. It’s rolling out now over-the-air, and it brings lots of new features and improvements.

Google has pushed out an update for its Translate app on Google Play, bringing new gesture support, improved conversational translations, as well as handwriting support for Hebrew, Greek, Javanese and Esperanto.

In latest news from the Samsung vs. Apple patent case, Samsung on Wednesday filed an emergency motion with presiding Judge Lucy Koh to halt Apple’s damages retrial.

Why the halt? Because according to court documents, the US Patent and Trademark Office has suggested that Apple’s “pinch to zoom” patent (which much of the patent trial revolves around) might not actually be valid.

Sprint is in the process of pushing out an over-the-air (OTA) update to its branded edition of Samsung’s former flagship smartphone the Galaxy Note II. This upgrade brings Android 4.3 Jelly Bean and a newer version of the TouchWiz UI to the device, in addition to a multitude of bug fixes and speed optimizations.

The Xbox One isn’t quite out yet, but those of you planning to pick one up later this week can now download the new companion app for Android in preparation. Gamers can use it to navigate their Xbox One’s user interface, browse the web on their TV, and to turn their smartphone or tablet into a second screen.
