Does Google Now use my data plan?

I searched the web and XDA but could not get a clear answer as to whether Google Now uses my data plan or not. I know it likes wifi and gps to be turned on (battery drain I'm sure) but I don't need to suck my data plan dry. Does anyone know if uses my data plan when wifi in not within a network?

Had a chat with a samsung agent, and here is the official statement he gave me:

Please wait for a Samsung Agent to respond.

You are now chatting with 'Matt A'. There will be a brief survey at the end of our chat to share feedback on my performance today.

Your Issue ID for this chat is LTK56402121011X

Matt A: Hi, thank you for contacting Samsung Technical Support. How may I help you today?

Visitor: Hi

Visitor: Do you guys know if the Skyrocket SGH-i727 will be getting the JB update?

Matt A: I understand that you would like to know if Skyrocket would be receiving the Jelly Bean update, is that correct?

Visitor: Yes

Matt A: I will be glad to provide you the required information.

Matt A: May I place you on hold for 3 minutes while I gather this information for you?

Visitor: No problem

Matt A: Thank you for being on hold.

Matt A: I appreciate your interest in Jelly Bean update.

Visitor: I want to know since I got the phone a few months back and I would really like to keep it, but if no JB update will be avaliable I wont keep the phone.

Matt A: The latest update available for your device model is ICS.

Visitor: I know

Matt A: I've checked the details for you.

Visitor: ICS is already installed on my unit

Matt A: As of now there isn't any date announced for the release of Jelly Bean update for your device model.

Matt A: Any information released or announced will be first posted on the Samsung website (Download Center).

Matt A: I recommend you regularly visit our Samsung website for latest and updated information.

Visitor: The date is not important, do guys know if there will ever be a JB update

Matt A: Let me provide you with a link for Samsung download center.

Matt A: Please click the below link to visit the Samsung download center:

Matt A: http://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads

Matt A: We have not heard from you. Do you wish to continue the chat?

Visitor: sorry, no thank you

Chatted on the 28 of November 2012.

The funny thing is, I used to own a Motorola Atrix 4G (great phone) and motorola pulled out the ICS upgrade at the last minute and left all the atrix user on GB. I got the skyrocket hoping that it will get the JB update, will just have to wait.!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] :
Why did you buy the phone if you knew it only had ICS and you wanted jb that's stupid :rolleyes: buy for what it already has never buy for what you hope it will have
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
Because XDA exists :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] :
But he's wanting a stock jb update
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
Ok, I confess that I just couldn't read his entire dissertation! I only read your post. So I concur with your advice!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] zcucurullo:
Coward!!!

At the time only 1 phone had JB (galaxy nexus) and the camera sucks, The other one was the S3 (it was getting the official upgrade). So people buy their phones according to the specs, and this phone should get JB. If samsung does not release JB for the skyrocket then i'll do the same as I did with my ATRIX, it will be sold.

Since you buy for what it already is, i take you have a galaxy nexus, if not, I think your stupid also according to your expertise. Now the question is would you have the balls to call me stupid if I was standing in front of you? Or are you one of those idiots that like to insult people online because that's the only ways you feel safe, you sound like one of those pricks that got beat out on school everyday an online is the only way you feel macho enough doing it.

---------- Post added at 10:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:34 AM ----------

Stock JB would help make a better JB rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] shaggyskunk:
He wasn't calling you stupid, just questioning your buying decision process based on your lengthy post.

Your reply on the other hand, would suggest that you are having a bad day.

There's no room on this forum to make personal attacks, threats or insults.

I would strongly suggest that you edit your post - Before it gets reported & removed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] :
I never called you stupid although your response may suggest it. I buy my phones for what the have when I buy them I don't expect official support past its original firmware. Why because I'm smart enough to know the oem's and carriers suck with updates. What I do look at on the other hand is xda support of a device if its got people which this one had a good group at the time then I buy. These carriers don't want to update these phones it costs money oem's well I'm sure they aren't super keen on it either as it takes time and money to build. If you want official updates I suggest nexus. If you want anything else get off your butt and build. Before you ask yes I have.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] zcucurullo:
Your where the one that got the stupid word out. If you can take responsibility for your words, then don't write them down. Just because you think that your "suggestion" was not calling me stupid, well, just because you say so does not mean you right. Stupid people act stupid, killers kill people, robbers steal, so when you call my decision making stupid what do you think you were implying, is common sense.

OK bro :rolleyes:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] LoSt180:
The Skyrocket was originally released with Gingerbread (2.3.x) with the notion of getting upgraded to ICS. I'm not holding my breath for an official upgrade to 4.1 (or 4.2) Jelly Bean. Especially since it's a carrier specific model and not a Nexus device. Cyanogenmod and the others are probably our best option. ..hope I turn out to be wrong though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] awarbrick89:
Well, us Rogers skyrocket users are supposed to be getting jellybean end of December.

And the last three android phones I have had always got their updates when the carrier said it was supposed to.

So I don't get the complaints about the carriers sucking anymore.....

Stop knocking the OEMS and carriers cause it takes devs a long time too to make a ROM as stable as stock (as non optimal as it may be)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] zcucurullo:
I hope that to.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] :
Tell me you're joking.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jedah:
I'm actually looking forward to the official update, if Rogers and AT&T really pull through. There are a couple things I miss on the Touchwiz roms: such as the ability to save cameras photos directly to SD and Kiescast. File structure seems kinda weird to me, too: I have an sdcard folder AND an sdcard0 folder that seem to be the same thing.

I still go back and forth btwn SkyICS and any of the JB roms (tried CM10, Collective, and now on Liquid), and still am not sure what benefit I'm getting from JB: both are fast w/ decent battery life. I stick w/ JB just b/c have an almost obsessive need to be on the latest.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] zcucurullo:
I'm rooted but still have my official ICS rom, I'm really looking forward for the JB update (if it ever comes) I like to have my phone as stable as it can be, and have all the hardware working correctly. Custom ROMS are great (on HTC, Motorola, and other phones), but I still like the official ROM better on samsung.

When listening to music on headset, the alarm will go off at the same volume as the music even though my volume for the alarm would be at max.

it worked fine on ICS.

Anyone noticed this or know of a solution?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] netomel:
This is the wrong place to critizice the S3 when we all know its a better phone than the i-phone maybe you just could find the best way to use it. We love the android enviroment. The versatility is infinite.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] syypher:
Is it just me or is my battery life really bad on JB? Not sure about specific battery hours and all the fine details. But when I use JB ROMS (so far I've used CM10 stable and superlite) I am at around 25% when I leave work. (Unplugged at 8a and leave at 5p). When I use ICS ROMS like CM9 stable, SkyICS and ParanoidAndroid I am at around 50% when I leave work. I've used the ROMS for at least a week each in the past couple weeks. Is this just an issue with JB? I'm thinking of going back to ICS unless I can get this resolved because I need the battery to last me a full day.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] netomel:

If so...I'll try it out.

@Netomel: Which ROM are you using? Kernel/Radio?

I really like JB and Google Now. But it just feels like Now might be killing my battery way too fast. I want to have battery life like Netomel's pictures :good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] netomel:
You got it bro that's the rom base UCLK4. I flashed the odexed rom but deodexed is available now. There is a lite version by vicom. All I know is a leak of stock firmware so this is what we will be seeing in samsung's release. Do all the permitted tweaks on stock roms. But I can say it's one of the great ones.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bps119:
I'm on Paranoid Android jelly bean v.2.99, running TFQ's kernel v.2.2, and ucalc4 radio and my battery life is fantastic. If you've had problems on that many roms, you need to begin hunting for wake locks.

Btw... Almost all of the JB rooms have yeilded me comparable results, but the one mentioned earlier has been the best so far.

My battery life of JediJelly has been awesome! Ran 3 hours of a game without stopping and only lost about 15% of my battery.. Great battery life on the 4.1.2 leak.. Has anybody been able to find a good working script manager for jellybean? SManager will not run on my device using jellybean it says it's not compatible.. Rom Toolbox runs the script but it never finishes.. Could really use a fix if anybody has one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mrfeuss:
I've had excellent results with Slim Bean. I'm not a fan of TouchWiz, so Slim Bean is tops. It's extremely lightweight, has a ton of customization options and looks amazing. Some people complain about the stock camera, but I think it has a solid feature set and good implementation. There's also a beta build based on Jelly Bean 4.2 already in the works. I haven't tried the leaked Jelly Bean build, but I'm loving this Slim Bean. Hope that helps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] edgex:
With all this work now I'm debating my decision, I've been trying to pawn my Skyrocket for a gnex just to play with Jelly Bean. I'll buy the next nexus flat out whenever it comes anyways, but now I'm impatient. But if we get it for the SR I guess I don't need to waste time/money.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] AlwaysDroid:
Okay, how does that work? Sorry, I am very curious
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] BaconStep:
.well the sdk dump alone wont work. So it requires some work to get it to function on the skyrocket and t989. Judging from the HTC One X section. The sdk dump and the galaxy nexus release can be used to get a jellybean port.

List of devices that have jellybean booting:

Acer Iconia A500

HTC One X

Galaxy SIII i9300

Galaxy Nexus sprint/vzw/gsm

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] whosgotlag:
Guys, take your discussion to PMs. Upgrading is not relevant.

Edit: although I may as well throw in my two cents. The nexus 7, is awesome for what it is. Google replacement for Kindle. The galaxy nexus is an awesome phne, and you will it. But the new nexus devices will be announced soon enough. And u will get buyers remorse.

As for flash for JB, sites are transitioning away from it quickly. All in all its a good thing, so in the meantime use your computer to download some porn and push it on your phone.

Impressions so far:

Google Now: I use it every day now. If I could... I would probably use it as my home screen.

Notifications: soooo sweet. 500 times more useful IMO.

Notifications: can return a call from the notification.

Notifications: missing toggles.

Battery: I've been getting very good usage out of CM9 as it is, I can't really tell a diff. I'm also using the GNex. So I get 16 hrs and still have 30-40% left.

Camera: The pictures seem to be a bit better with the new camera.

Overall: There's some subtle changes here and there.

Overall: Extremely smooth with new animations.

Epic.

For a dev release this is pretty epic.... honestly.

I myself am very excited to try out Google Now, notifications, and Voice Assistant but without source it won't be able to be a daily driver so that goodness is still probably at least a month away. For now I just need to satisfy my curiosity and then forget about it for a little bit because I'm sure once I try it out I'll be salivating for source code to drop.
