Im guessing the sports card doesnt work for english football leagues.

Ive searched for my team and it brings up google searches.

I then just for the sake of it asked it about the phillies and it brought up a card and set a sports card for the phillies lol.

Now when i go into the settings the edit teams option isnt greyed out anymore.

I can turn phillies off and on.

Another thing is ive set up my lattitude and everything and i got a card to tell me how long it would take me to get to work... the thing is ive got 2 weeks off work now lol.

Am i going to have to manually do something to get it to start recognising when i should go to work?

Obviously its going to be picking up that im not going to work for the next 2 weeks :silly:

Is it possibly to change the mountain background image?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Evostance:
Yes. I've done it myself, just haven't told anyone lol.

You need 4 images for different times of day

Using Google Now in 4.1.1 with Light Flow - detecting hotword is working flawlessly. Have you tried disabling then enabling this option in Google Now settings? It's labeled "Hotword detection" in Voice settings. If you don't have it there at all - then you first must set system language to English (US), no other option will work. I've tried selscting Russian - recognition works, but no hotword detection and no queries (i.e. no questions like 'what was the cast of stargate' in Russian - it will only do simple google search).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] skychan:
My 2 cents ... I initially was having the problem of the browser popping up right over the cards. Play Led Zeppelin = browser, sms xxxxx = browser, what's the Yankees score = browser, what's the weather = Washington/browser.

That was yesterday, now everything works as it should. I didn't make any changes to any of the settings, so I can only assume either there was some internal fine tuning at Google, or it takes some time for GNow to "learn".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vange:
Ok, sounds good...care to point me in the right direction? :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Evostance:
You need to decompile the apk and modify the images in it. Not great deal to it tbh
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vange:
Roger that :good:, and thanks for the info :victory:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Slukefter:
Other native phone langages than US english?

Has anybody found a way to get it to work with other native phone languages than english? I prefer to keep my menus in danish...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crachel:
I totally agree.. I've turned GPS off to see if tower triangulation will allow me to continue to use the features + get the kind of battery life I expect.

Side note

: package tracking is a major Google Now oversite IMO. If you search for a UPS Tracking #, a card should be displayed that tracks your package for you. Google Search already integrates/recognizes the various tracking #'s, so it should have been simple to integrate
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Evostance:
I opened a custom card development thread a while ago. Hopefully we can look into this now the source is out. Can't imagine it to be too hard
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] windyboy:
No images on cards

I ask the same question of the demo on the youtube, the answer appears on card, the demo has a image related, but there is only text on my phone.

Is there any further configurations ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rasinell:
To get images on the cards you need the search domain to be Google.com (not local domain) in the Google now settings. Sorry if that's not what you meant but that is the difference between pics and no pics for me
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lupoalberto12:
I'll try it as soon as possible :D .

Thanks.

Bye!

! :) !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] windyboy:
I can not find the tick box of "Search on google.com"

That's odd. Its the next one down from manage web history on mine :confused:

Relationships

Hey guys,

I was just wondering whether any of you have managed to get GNow to recognize relationships properly?

For example: I have my wife set up properly on my Google Contacts with the 'relationship' field looking like this (and it's synced properly to my phone):

I've tried the following:

Email my wife - works. This brings up my wife's contact details with an option to send an email.

Call my wife - doesn't work

Text my wife - doesn't work

If I try Call/Text with someone's name, it works fine.

Am I saying the wrong thing? Is my South African accent to blame (it's not a heavy one at all)? I generally manage to ask just about everything else without a problem.

Thanks for the great advice in this thread :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] smoothunit:
I'm having exactly the same problem except even the "email my wife" command doesn't work. Using just her name obviously does though...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stldyl11:
I am not getting Google Now to recognize my teams at all. I search for my baseball team everyday and it still has yet to prefetch the score card. Edit teams is greyed out in the settings, any ideas :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sinkdrain:
The Google now background changes depending on where you are. I was at the beach last week and during that time it was a beach scene....now that I'm back its the mountain scene again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] remybach:
Have you set the relationship up properly in Google Contacts?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jyconan:
hi, When I search for something in the Google Search app, the result always jumps to my browser, not within Google Search.

Can anybody tell me how to fix this? (I have tried resetting data and cache for Google Search app, no use...)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] remybach:
Have you even read the first post in this thread?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] -juanito-:
how i can set my favorite team ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] remybach:
This only works in the US at the moment, and if I'm not mistaken, it learns who your favourite team is based on the Google searches you do.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] -juanito-:
so if i always search about Real Madrid .. Google Now will se it my favorite team ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jyconan:
Yes I have.

My problem as described was happening within the Google now search interface, I don't see it deviate from this thread.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] phoenixs4r:
Is there anyway to redirect Bluetooth button to activate Google now, more specifically voice search? Currently it activates the useless voice dialer prompt.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] seoulman:
I've followed every step in the OP and still nothing. I get the weather card and that's it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wilson378:
Just a question, the Translate/Currency cards don't show up, is it like this? For example I'd ask: What is 1 USD to Euro, and it will just show up a list of searches. Anyone know why that is?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Evostance:
They only work when in a country outside your home country
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChrisAG:
Set alarm x days in future?

"Set alarm for tomorrow at 11pm" sets it for TODAY at 11pm.

I've tried variations, like saying the date I want it set, but it still sets the alarm for today.

The only way around it is to simply say "Set alarm" and then edit the details manually.

Anyone else get better results?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] remybach:
I like to think that it will one day, but for the moment, it works with US sports only.

---------- Post added at 09:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:25 PM ----------

I've found that saying "Set alarm for tomorrow night at 11pm" works.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bourne-nolonger:
Hey,

I live in Canada and am running stock Jellybean received through the OTA.

It did not contain Google Now.

I was just curious if anyone has a link to a tutorial I can follow to install it.

I have had a hard time finding info about it because "Google" and "now" show up in almost every post it seems.

I found this post - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1749045

It has a link to the apk.

Does anyone know if I can just install the apk? Or do I have to do all the other modifications as well?

I figured I wouldn't have to since I was already running JB but I wasn't sure.

Cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] smoothunit:
I have set her to "SPOUSE" and then typed in "Wife". This is all i have to do yeah?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] remybach:
I think so. That's all I did, and the email thing worked! I guess this is something that Google need to fix. :/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pollux_x:
swipe

I've noticed some people swipe up from the app drawer to launch google now, but this does not work for me. I'm in the UK so I think some functions don't work. Certainly not "turn on wifi". Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] remybach:
Which phone do you have? The swiping up only works on phones such as the Galaxy Nexus that *don't* have hardware buttons.

Is there way to get card-like-search-result although using Other languages?(Non-english)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] -juanito-:
weather notification doesn't show in my notifications bar !! :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] timtime:
So my google now was working pretty well - showing weather, traffic and local bars and restaurants- when in the midlands, UK. However I have now gone to the south west, UK to see my parents and it is showing nothing at all. It is just blank, with an option to show sample cards and if I create an event then that also shows up. If I search on it for weather where I am then it tells me, but the only way I seem to be able to get the weather card to display is to change my home address to where I am and tick that box in the weather card settings.

Anyone got any ideas? It was working fine yesterday, including during the drive, just not anymore. I have tried: turning google now on/off +/- resetting my galaxy nexus, deleting the app data in settings and starting again with google now, changing all the language settings to US english. One thing I did notice was that the voice has changed to a man, not sure if that happened before it stopped working or whether this is just the first time I've noticed it.

Any help would be very much appreciated- am getting frustrated!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kcshmo:
is that the add "Person" field, and you pick spouse in there? I always thought that is to indicate the spouse for that contact, and not to indicate that contact is your spouse.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bourne-nolonger:
I am dumb and didn't realize that my phone already had Google Now.

It seems to be working okay. Although it only shows the weather card and nothing else.

I have tried searching for American based teams and I still don't get anything.

Not the end of the world I am sure it will eventually sort itself out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Theshawty:
I borrowed this guide a while back to post on a Swedish android forum. I gave the OP full credit for it, though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Evostance:
Hmm that's a good point. I could never figure out why you could select someone to be your father yet you have to type something in for it as well
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Seems like you don't even really need Google Now enabled for a lot of the Voice Search cards, etc.

I've got everything working except for sports teams; all I get are the Search results. Any idea why they wouldn't work for me like they do in the YouTube GNow example vids?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bourne-nolonger:
Sports teams aren't working for me either. I have tried searching American teams only as well and the card still does not fill in

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dmarmstr:
Do you have your search history enabled in your Google Dashboard online? I heard you need to enable that for the sports cards to work for Google Now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bourne-nolonger:
I actually don't know. I'd have to check that and see. I have a feeling I may have disabled just before Google changed their privacy settings.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pitflyer:
So how do you set up relationship? I added husband and my name to my wife's contact and text wife still doesn't work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmstlist:
My mother's name is a less common (but still popular) spelling variant of a common name. Whenever I speak it to Google Now, it always takes the most common spelling and then fails to find her. This runs contrary to how voice contacts should work - the system should build a database around expected pronunciations of contacts that it already has.

Nonetheless, I just noticed today there is a "Phonetic Name" field. If I type in the more common spelling as her phonetic name, now it finds her. I also noticed that putting Mom in Nickname or Relationship didn't help.

This got me thinking, heck, why not just abuse the phonetic field. I entered Mom into Phonetic Name. Bam! Now it finds her when I say Mom.

So I suggest you enter "My Wife" as her phonetic name. See if it helps? :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adzievski:
This is an awesome idea! I'm swedish and have a lot of swedish names in my phone book. Voice search can't find most of them even if I do a kind of english pronunciation of them. I just entered an "english version" of their names in the "Phonetic Name" field and it works flawlessly!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thegios:
My Gnex recently is shtting down or rebooting by itself.

I do not pretend for anyone giving me a raison for why this would happen (although if anyone has an idea pls share ;-) but... is there a way, a toll, anything to help me investigate what is causing these shutdowns/reboots?

I finally bought this superb phone

But there is a problem

My phone doesn't include polaris office preinstalled

So i want to ask you guys a favoyr

Would anyone that have titanium bakup inetalled,bqckup his own polaris office and send it to me?

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g4rvd4:
Don't think so, buy it yourself.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:
If it was included in S2/Note doesn't necessarily mean that it should be present in S3 too

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlorange:
Here's the full version from the S2.

http://db.tt/dtXm0DgC

You might need to copy the apk to system/app folder and the two lib files to to System/lib The CMW zip seems to not be working right... but it works perfect.

:)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Just get Kingsoft Office on the market, it's free.

Polaris is a commercial software, so using a version on a phone it didn't come bundled with is a violation of the ToS and as such copyright infrigment.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frostfree:
Hey, Smart Office is now available as a free download in Samsung Apps, it's a full office editor.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlorange:
Lol! Are you kidding man? Can you imagine the cash Samsung would have forked out to have Polaris bundled free with 20 million SGS2's? Do you think they REALLY care if a few smart xda guys do a sneaky port? Lol! Google Play app purchases are for life and can used across device upgrades so really I'm just extending the life of an app I purchased when I forked out $800 for my S2.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlorange:
Nope listing as $8 for me. And the S2 Polaris I posted is the full office edit version... shhhh don't tell anyone ;)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Just because none cares does make it automatically right.

I don't think anyone here is an angel but I still point out that it probably is illegal.

The point is that you never bought Polaris Office through the Play Market but it came bundled with the phone. While you can transfer the APK, the license -not in the pysical sense of serial number or file but in the sense of having been granted- remains on the original device.

However, owning a S2 MAY give you the right to use the APK on your S3 as long as you still own the S2, especially since afaik there are no security checks on the APK.

(It's the same as with backups of movies... you may have as many as you want as long as you have the original providing you don't bypass any relevant security features such as CSS [which according to some courts is not relevant anymore])
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlorange:
Oh yes you are correct, my Google play paid app story was more of an anecdote to how murky the Android world is in terms of digital rights.

You were pointing out the legal position mostly. True but really porting any Samsung stock rom apps to say cm9 is just as illegal in terms of rights, these apps come bundled with Samsungs rom.

I would argue that porting a bundled app to another device is not legally the same thing as using software which has a momentary vale (on Play say) and appropriate licence which is not paid for. So in the case of Polaris Samsung has bought the rights to a bundled version so sharing it around on XDA is no worse than any Samsung bundled app like S Voice. And certainly not as illegal as sharing Modded Samsung bundled apps.

I could be completely wrong on this one however I did get this Zip from XDA
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
OEM apps are generally fair game unless the OEM states otherwise (Swype being the prime example), as you cant actually buy polaris office anywhere (I looked, if I missed something, let me know) and its only shipped as an OEM product on android so its fair game.

Agreed.

on the htc official website they provide registered user with a bootloader.

i tried it twice already but it didnt work.:(

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DressedUpPanda:
Ok I don't know if its just me and when I download the ROMS that have been made compiled for JB but in both I have flashed I still have no camera app. Is it not available yet because they change the camera app or am I blind? I've flashed Team Inferno's ROM and Bixie's ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
I think you might be blind... lol jk. But no seriously. I've never not had the camera app in any of the JB roms I've flashed (although I'm CDMA). It's still called "Camera..." Perhaps the gapps weren't packaged correctly with the rom so it doesn't show up? Have you looked in /system/apps to see if Camera.apk is there?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DressedUpPanda:
Lol wouldn't put it passed me for being blind x) I did check to see if the apk was in the system, its not. BTW I'm on the GSM GNex. Also used the android APK Swapper to double check and it's not there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
Wow. Very interesting. When I went into /system/app Camera.apk wasn't there, but I had the Camera application... I went to drag the Camera app into "app info" and it comes up with Gallery version 1.1.4000, so obviously the Camera application is grouped or side-loaded with the Gallery application. Perhaps try reinstalling Gallery?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fallingd0wn:
You are correct. Normally I remove the gallery apk from ROMs since I prefer Quickpic. Doing this on a Jelly Bean ROM also removes the camera.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChanceOfChange:
its combined with gallery m8!

I just checked my gallery apk, and the only one I have is gallerygoogle.apk not gallery m8 and when I try to reinstall it it fails :(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrRoo:
Hi all, I actually own a H7300 (Hero) android phone version 2.3.5 dual sim etcetera.

I really just wanted root access to use Titanium Backup but Gingerbreak 1.2 SuperOneClick 2.3.3 wouldn’t give it to me.

So I read avidly all the information I could find “Bruno Martin” “Bunta” and downloaded all I could

In the way of ROMS SPFlashTool and I finally work up the courage to try flashing the recovery ROM

Using the scatter text file found it the SPFalshTool and a recovery ROM image from Bunta V6 (not in Version 8?)

Well the Flashing worked and I booted in recovery mode this time I had to hold the volume down button not volume up as with the original recovery image got into CMW (ClockWorkMod) version 5.0.2.8 and scrolled to apply update from SD card (I prepared this earlier) and this is what I get

E:Can’t mount /cache/recovery/last_log

E:Can’t open /cache/recovery/last_log

E:Can’t find misc

And a lot more lines pertaining to the same.

I looked this up by Googling and didn’t really find a solution just a mention of the Android Police!

I note that neither Bruno nor Bunta actually own a phone like this but have cooked these roms because they can.

If anyone has actually succeeded in getting any of these Roms to work in the 2.3.5 version of the H7300 please please let me into the secret!

Bruno Martins has an adapted custom recovery for this phone. Seems that hardware changed in the newest H7300.

The one I own is from May 2012 and also works only with the new recovery, I had the same problem and messages as you with the first custom recovery.

You need also a new boot.img file to copy into the update zip with new rom, or copy the Boot.img from your now working into the update.zip, with

the boot.img your phone isn't able to boot normally.

Hi Robbel, I actually got a response from Bunta and he suggested what you also have suggested this was the result

I did what you said got the new recovery image and installed it with SP flash tool I also replaced the boot image in your V6 by decompressing both your v8 and the new boot.img replacing it in the decompressed file then zipped it as update.zip to my SD card I ran CWM and this time the backup was successful (no mention of cache)

When I tried to install your ROM this is the message I got

--installing: /sdcard/update.zip

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Installing update...

Installation aborted.

I also tried V3.3 mod from BM and got the same message
