Whenever I press the search button and bring up Google Now search, I get a notification that says " Select input method". When I press the notification, I get 3 choices to pick from: "Google voice typing, Google voice typing, and Touch input".

What's with the 2 Google voice typing choices? And no matter which one I pick, nothing changes, and the notification is always there anytime I go to Google Now.

Thoughts? Thanks!
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Just select touch input, that should solve it, solved it for me.

anyone getting sports cards? it seems to be disabled and also movie cards...i think there's an update to google now...is this available yet? if so I havn't been able to find it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] KnowledgeBroker:
Does anyone even know HOW it updates? I wasn't getting a card for commuting to work or home till today.. suddenly it asks "is this your home?" I updated it.. just checked sample cards and it pops up "is this your work?" Changed that.. now I have those cards. The only thing I did was update maps today, even tho I've had google now installed and been going to/from work for at least 2 weeks.. could be ABSOLUTELY wrong, but perhaps they updated that aspect thru maps?

Do you have browser syncing? Are you searching for sports scores using google, on the phone or a computer while logged in(or on a synced browser)? The way I understand it, it uses your searches to populate things like the sports cards.. I'm not really a sports guy so I have no idea.

Also, did you go into settings and set it up? Google app, settings, google now settings, sports, and make sure game details is on under notifications? Even lets you choose the teams right there.. I'll bet that's it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] seansk:

[HTC Amaze 4G] diveoz:
After days of battling with Google Now I finally won!!!

My install had no cards on the GN screen. It was just a white screen with a box and a mic. Tapping on the box would take me to the voice screen with the red mic and from there I could get just enough GN experience to think it was highly overrated and quite limited.

Then I saw how GN is supposed to look on a family member's galaxy nexus and I was damned if I wasn't going to get it working.

I went through thread after thread on XDA and elsewhere. I installed version after version only to keep getting the white screen.

Finally, somewhere I saw an inocuous statement about needing GN approval in the mobile setup of Google Apps for organications and it clicked.Since my google account is a business apps account I needed to approve google now for users within the organization, i.e. me!

The steps for google apps users are as follows (assuming you are already signed into Google):

Gmail, the settings box on the right, Manage Domain, Settings (top Bar), Mobile (Left Side), scroll down to Android settings and check Enable Google Now.

See the attached screenshot!

I hope this helps someone else not have to go through what I did!
[HTC Amaze 4G] Double0EK:
You can activate that feature from the Google Now Settings.. but I'm gonna try this method when I get home just to see if it makes any difference.

Searching around found out that you have to turn on web history to get google now to "learn"

Once I did that .. I started seeing the searched teams right away.

Also you can edit the work/home addresses in location history. (You have to turn on location history for that)
[HTC Amaze 4G] JohnnyQ1964:
Any possibility that this will come as an apk?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
Search in the links posted, in the op of each there is the link to velvet.apk file only.
[HTC Amaze 4G] MentalDeath:
Just wonder if anyone had success doing this. I decompiled and edited it but can't recompile. I checked a few pages back and looked at the zip and didn't see anything referring to it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
What are you using to decompile/recompile?
[HTC Amaze 4G] mrianhimself:
What would be the least painful way to get this onto a completely stock Amaze? I'm completely new to this. :( I know I need to be rooted in order to obtain it, but to be completely honest, I just want Google Now. All of the other stuff such as ROMs don't interest me as much as GN.

From what I've gathered, I'll need S-OFF, and then I can use that HTC Quick Root program that is also found in this sub-forum. Then I would just follow the instructions in the GN topic and either flash it (not sure what that is either, but I'll look into it before I'd try it.) or install the apk?

Sorry for sounding like a complete noob, but this phone means a lot to me being a poor college student, and I'd like to make sure I can do everything in my power not to "screw it up" and get everything right in the first go.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
1. Unlock bootloader via htcdev.com (tool kit has this as the first step)

2. Flash custom recovery and root the device via all in one tool kit, (root is completely optional, it's only the custom recovery that's needed but if you're gonna do that might as well get root access as well just in case you need it)

3. Flash the google now zip of your choice from any of the many links posted in this very thread.

Simple don't ya think?

[HTC Amaze 4G] Dark Nightmare:
That's correct, the app you're pointing to in the second link only gives you root, nothing else, to install google now you're gonna need to have full read/write access of the recovery/system partitions, so the first link is correct, np.
[HTC Amaze 4G] dasudevil:
WOW worked like a charm. Downloaded on to the phone. PC took forever to transfer. Removed apk and flashed zip. COOOOL... nice to see it work like they say it does. Testing it out i did not even know what to ask it other then scores. Maybe ill think of something later.

Thanks again works perfect.

Did you turn it on? Open the Google app found in your app drawer and set it up. Plus I think it has to be in English so be sure that's all set. But if you have any other questions I linked to a thread that has a ton of info you can ask on that thread.

I know this has been posted elsewhere, but I thought I'd just confirm for anyone who is having bluetooth issues after installing Google Now on ICS, that I fixed my problems by enabling "touch sounds".

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] xdevilium:
So, here's how to edit the physical and virtual buttons on your phone, tested on Live with Walkman and should work on any Android ROM and version.

Using Root Explorer:

Navigate to /system/usr/keylayout and open cyttsp_key.kl for soft buttons and pm8085-keypad.kl for physical buttons.

Open the above file(s) using Text Editor (long press).

Change the values to what you want, examples:

MENU = menu

BACK = back

SEARCH = search

APP_SWITCH = recent apps

MUSIC = music player

POWER = lock/power

HOME = home/recent apps

Using ADB:

Type:

adb remount

adb pull system/usr/keylayout/cyttsp_key.kl

adb pull system/usr/keylayout/pm8085-keypad.kl

Then open them in Notepad++ , NOT IN WINDOWS NOTEPAD!

Change the values to what you want, examples:

MENU = menu

BACK = back

SEARCH = search

APP_SWITCH = recent apps

MUSIC = music player

POWER = lock/power

HOME = home/recent apps

Then type:

adb push cyttsp_key.kl system/usr/keylayout

adb push pm8085-keypad.kl system/usr/keylayout

adb shell chmod 655 system/usr/keylayout/cyttsp_key.kl

adb shell chmod 655 system/usr/keylayout/pm8085-keypad.kl

adb reboot

Done!

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] xdevilium:
My guess is that you go to system/app and copy xperia s music player to there and rename it to the name of the music player that opens when you press the key, example:

Rename apollo.apk to music.apk or whatever the name is
