i know voice doesnt work, but does text search work for you guys?

I get my weather card.
[HTC Sensation] mguelph:

Hey how can I put this on a ROM if I have to change build.prop twice?
[HTC Sensation] Censura_Umbra:
Use the method I posted above. no build prop change needed and most errors are fixed.
[HTC Sensation] goalcam:
Having an odd issue where after going through the initial screens where it shows what it can do and asks for permissions. It crashed and threw up a message about not being able to opt in to Latitude and just FCs each time I try to start it afterwards. :(

This is with Censura_Umbra's method on a CM9 kang.
[HTC Sensation] Gorjess:
i think the thread should be moved to apps section..

and you don't have to be running aosp to work.. try the app first..

mine is working on stock samsung rom :)

oh by the way, cant we use other voice recognition app to input the text? e.g vlingo?

Not surprising since it IS supposed to link to all of your google services and provide up to date information automatically. Try changing the notification settings and turning them all off.

[HTC Sensation] jacobras:
Double-check please, because the FCs on my device were caused by the sdk-version. When YT detects sdk v16 it tries to use some new system APIs which are actually not available, because you're using v15 :)
[HTC Sensation] glax0:
On the card displaying the weather, click on the right side where there's 3 small dots, and select "Settings". From there, change to unit from C to F.
[HTC Sensation] Agazzy:
Awesome job, thanks!

Even though there are some hiccups around here and there, seems to be working OK for me.

Sometimes searching doesn't work and I usually have to close the app a few times or even restart the device, but that's okay. I'm happy with what I have.

& I seriously just read all 33 pages and you know what's annoying? People continually asking about voice search...

but you know what else is annoying? People continuously replying to those asking about voice search/saying it's not working...

People ask the question repeatedly, but people answer the question repeatedly, too... I think you should just let the people asking be... let them figure it out on their own and focus on discussing/fixing things instead of *****ing about people asking. Just my opinion even though I know it really doesn't matter.

Keep up the good work, hard working developers~!

I also noticed a big heavy battery drain even Force Stopping it, so I'm deleting it (most times it won't search or won't close, so it's still buggy (as expected)) until it's more stable :)

The App worked fine on my S2 with CM9, with all the cards.

But suddenly I got FC's of this app. Did Google noticed this leak and stopped the Service for some devices?
[HTC Sensation] mike.b93:
Using google now on ICS devices seems do cause massive battery drain. I assume that Google Now is constantly looking to connect with other Google services and due to the differences in JB Google Now seems to have it's problems with this. I wouldn't recommend using this APK for anything other than testing purposes just yet...
[HTC Sensation] ludox10:

[HTC Sensation] drumercalzone09:
I also have sudden FCs now - started about 5 hours ago (at least that I noticed). I tried clearing data and rebooting - will try Fix Permissions in ROM Manager (even though the app is set to RW-R--R-- already).
[HTC Sensation] ubuntu_droid:
Turns out I assigned e(x)ecute permissions on the apk which caused the error.

-rw-r--r--

are the correct permissions (no e(x)ecution permissions!).

Cannot re-edit build.prop

How much of problem is that? The sdk is still 16.

Tried re-editing using vi from adb shell (how I got it done in the first place!). Says read-only (adb remount, su, ...).

I installed 920textedit and gave it root privileges. Did the edit to 15 there and saved. Claimed it did it but I now have the build.prop with sdk16 and a build.prop.unsuper with sdk15.

How to fix?

Problem solved after reboot, restarting adb a couple of times. Whatever, renamed the build.prop to build.prop16 and the usuper on to build.prop.

OK.

How could you install that app without reading? No voice! This is stated in every second post!

Why do people install something without reading the OP or any comment. No wonder people brick their devices.
[HTC Sensation] antonio1475:
I strongly believe there are people who deserve their Android phones to explode and turn into an old Nokia device just for calling. :p

My guess is that you could make around 15-20 pages of 38 right now just with posts with "Voice not working".

Not too experienced with this...tried editing the build.prop, and the sdk line equals 10 instead of changing from 15 to 16. I have cyanogenmod 7.2...is that just the wrong version or is it just not ICS? Thanks from this newb!
[HTC Sensation] paparozzi:
CyanogenMod 7.2 is not an ICS Rom
[HTC Sensation] antonio1475:
You don't have ICS (Android 4.0.x), you have CM7, which is Gingerbread (Android 2.3.x), so you can't use this app. (Well, you can try, I don't know, but all I've read is that only works in Android 4)

Others Read_X_ Write___ Execute_X_

Everything else is unchecked.

NO, you need to follow directions.You do not install it.

http://www.mediafire.com/?u09rrb81ju6bkp7 You rename the velvet apk to GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk then use root explorer to navigate to /system/app findd the original GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk and rename it to GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk1 then go back to the file you downloaded and renamed(the google now apk which you renamed to GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk) copy it and paste it to /system/app then change the permissions for the application you just pasted to rw-r--r-- then reboot.

[HTC Sensation] averymlewis:
Soooo I believe I've figured out the problem with the voice. Apparently we're going to have to switch out google's voice recognizer with the one used on JB theres also a lib for this. Also we'll have to switch out the RecognitionListener because when it attempts to listen its unable to listen and crashes before it can. As well as the tts (Text to Speech). Because if you notice if you try to use TTS while typing a message, email, etc you do not get the NEW TTS.
[HTC Sensation] caketime:
But all those apks would need to be edited to run at a lower api, or we ourselves could change api level in build.prop. You can give it a try, let us know.
[HTC Sensation] averymlewis:
Well what if we changed the bootloader to a lvl 16 installed them added permissions then converted it back?
[HTC Sensation] Dovidhalevi:
Worked once, then no more

I first installed it, following the instructions. Installed the Velvet.apk -- this was not clear in the instructions what to do with it! Finally got the sdk15 back and ... the thing worked. Had the transparent widget, did a weather search, got various weather reports, images, etc. Wonderful.

Unfortunately, it has not worked again. Network error, please check ....

I just flashed the hehappy upstream ROM. The widget was still around, behaved the same way: Network error... Note that this ROM has no GoogleQuickSearchBox apk!

I renamed and pushed and rebooted. Behaves the same way. I am unable to uninstall GoogleSearch to start over.

[HTC Sensation] caketime:
by bootloader you mean the build.prop ro.build.version.sdk = 16? Install the apks by copying them to /system/app making sure there are no original apps of those, if there are just rename their extension to .apk1 then reboot, change ro.build.version.sdk = 15 then reboot again.

Yep, to a T, I even did it a second time to make sure. I did make the changes to build.prop from the original Velvet.apk instructions. Since I now am using theos, do I have to revert the build.prop to what it was originally? Could that be it?
[HTC Sensation] caketime:
Yes you have to make sure the build.prop is back to the API level 15 and not 16
[HTC Sensation] averymlewis:
That may be a good idea as an alternative, however I believe we need to combine Velvet's APK file with the Velvet ODEX and rename it back to google search and then push it into the system files

GUYS GUYS I HAP PROBLEM VOICE DONT WORK

lol j/k
[HTC Sensation] Dovidhalevi:
Works -- Have Both!

As I posted, the latest hehappy ROM lacks the quick search bar apk in /system/app. It is somewhere, however. There is no "find" (locate) in the Android distro, however.

I sent through the procedure again and pushed the renamed Velvet.apk to system/app, rebooted, edited build.prop back, etc.

I still get the "Network error" but the thing works anyway.

I can even install the old search widget as "Search."

I can install this one as "Google-search."

Nothing stopping both from working. The Network error may be from the voice stuff, bugs amply posted in the forum. If I fire up Swype, I can use Dragon. Only difference is I have to click search when I am done.

Google-Now works hit and miss but its "hyper-search" idea is promising.
