Flashed Google Now but Google Now did not instll

:confused:

I installed Google Now fine on Aug 12th on my Verizon Galaxy S3 using using M6-Velvet.apk. Installed fine worked very well: Loved it.

Received an update notification from Verizon and since I'm rooted and bootloader unlocked I used "Stock Root - VRALG7 - DE-ODEX" to update.

Everything went well. Even flashed "CM9-DSP-Manager-v2.0" to reinstall and it went well: works fine. Then I tried to install M6-Velvet.apk and Google Now would not install: Just have same old fully functional Google search. I then tried to flash "mikeyxda_v7_Offline" Same thing. I flashed "Google Now for ICS" still no Google now. So I did a factory reset and wiped data and cache and did reinstall of the "Stock Root - VRALG7 - DE-ODEX" and then tried to install M6-Velvet.apk first: No luck. Reinstalled everything on my S3 and then used it for 1/2 day and then flashed "mikeyxda_v7_Offline" and since I'm still writing, no Google Now. I did another factory reset this morning and tried to flash "mikeyxda_v7_Offline" first before logging into my Google Account and restoring and still Google Now.

Can you help me?

I flashed Google now on my phone in recovery mode, when I start my phone and press the Google button in the widget then a white screen comes and then it gets stuck...

So I again flashed Google search and then again flashed Google now. This time gogle now started and told some introductory stuff and asked whether I want to start it then a black screen comes up and then force closes. But some times I get a notification of weather... From gogle now, but when I open it it again gets stuck in white screen..

Any other method or solution for this problem?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Abhiheart:
U must have 60 mb free space in your /system partition or 30 mb for just the online one :) clear some space by clearing cache of some of your apps :) and clear your cache of voice search and try running it again :) Go to Settings > apps > voice search > clear cache ..if still it fails try installing the online one and clear the cache of voice search after u install the online one :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] rahulsai2341:
I do have 123mb of free space..

I also tried clearing data of Google search, but it just doesn't work. It takes me back to the introduction, then when I press "yes I am ready" it loads for some time and then gets stuck on a black screen after that it force closes...

Okay I understood my problem.

All these days I thought internal memory should be at least 60mb but when I went to through the link above I understood that my system rom should me more than 60mb.as u can see in the pic that my rom memory is only 4mb...can u please tell me how to clear my rom memory....
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Abhiheart:
yup ..thats what i said that system memory should be free :D ...so now .,.u need to clear cache of your big apps ...and delete some of unwanted apps or send those apps to ur SD card ..use app2sd from the play store ...and then flash the zip ..it should be working :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] jasonwsc:
OK here's the problem. Google now seems to give more search results than cards when I talk to it. Say for example you ask who is the president of united states, it won't give you a card and speak out the answer. It only gives web search results. Seems really weird when it worked fine before installing reekotubbs version.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] jasonwsc:
Omfg of course you need wifi to use Google now. Offline means offline voice typing, NOT caching the whole Google server in 30mb. Although the weather sometimes work without wifi due to the cache...

You need to dalvik cache and cache then reinstall

I forgot to reply to all

It was working fine in my mobile

What I did is moved all the system apps to SD card using the Titanium backup software

Then I got 72MB of Free memory in my Sony NEO V System Memory

Then I have removed the Google Now using the Remove Google Now tool from the same forum

Reinstalled again in my device. It is working fine now.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] antaryami786:
Thank you so much!!!!!!!!

Works like a dream.......

Installed Google Now using GNow HandleBar, clearing 60Mb of system partition space really did the trick.........

Currently offline search helps to make calls using voice, however we heard that additional functionality e.g. turning wifi on/off using voice etc, will be updated....

btw, talking about updates...how do we update this version of Google Now in our phone....google play can't help us download update as it says Google Now is incompatible with Android ICS....so, can anybody shed some light on how to go about updating this ICS ported version of Google Now please?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Abhiheart:
Firstly Congrats on Getting the Google Now to work :)

And about the updates ..u will find the updates here ..once the developers are done developing a new version i will update the thread ..cant tell u when the update will roll out ...

Re: GoogleNow Working with voice both online and offline latest ver7 & FAQ,Troublesho

I have v7 installed with gnpw handlebars. The app works but the voice recognition doesn't work. It can hear me as the mic icon changes colour but it keeps listening until you cancel it.

Did u clear cache and dalvik cache ??
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] king martin 1976:
Re: GoogleNow Working with voice both online and offline latest ver7 & FAQ,Troublesho

I flashed my first Rom after rooting on Sunday morning. Did full wipe.

Installed this from gnow handlebars Sunday afternoon so I guess I did?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Abhiheart:
U have to clear cache and dalvik cache from the recovery (CWM) before flashing the zip ..:)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] king martin 1976:
Re: GoogleNow Working with voice both online and offline latest ver7 & FAQ,Troublesho

Sorry, I don't quite understand.

I'm sure I did this (clearing cache etc) before flashing the Rom. If I do it now, will I lose anything off my phone, ie apps etc?

And I assume by flashing zip you mean the zip on this thread not the Rom zip?

I was under the impression the apk for gnow handlebars was a complete simplified installation for this? Is my assumption wrong?

Thanks for the reply also :thumbup:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Abhiheart:
Always create a backup before flashing anything :) Secondly ..clearing cache and dalvik cache doesn't delete your apps ..its just for refreshing the memory of the system ..and tell me what is gnow handlebars ?? gnow stands for Google now i understand but what is gnow handlebars ?? :0:)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] king martin 1976:
Re: GoogleNow Working with voice both online and offline latest ver7 & FAQ,Troublesho

It's the apk on here... Supposed to install the lot without flashing anything.

At least that's my understanding? It all works apart from the voice input.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Abhiheart:
Ohh okay :) Well i haven't tried it ..but i can say that the zip that i have will install google now ..as it is by developers like reeko tubbs who created that gnow handle bars ..so i would say to u to flash the zip on my thread and see if it works....u would need to flash ..from google now to google search zip that is in my thread ..and then reboot and flash the zip of v7 ..and please do take a CWM backup before flashing :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] king martin 1976:
Re: GoogleNow Working with voice both online and offline latest ver7 & FAQ,Troublesho

I think I'm going to flash a new rom tonight and then give this a go.

I take it it should work OK on a sense rom?

Also the gnow handlebars was very laggy (desire HD). I don't see why it should take a lot of resources to run so am I thinking this shouldn't be slow like the apk version I tried previously?

Thanks. :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Abhiheart:
Cool ..leave a feedback after installing ..If the sense ROM is based on ICS it should just work fine :) But be sure to take a backup :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] king martin 1976:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] king martin 1976:
Re: GoogleNow Working with voice both online and offline latest ver7 & FAQ,Troublesho

Well this still works the same installing with cwm as it does with gnow handlebars unfortunately.

I wonder if this is due to me being in the UK?

Only bonus is I have kept the use of the ics voice input so I can still use that if needed and use google now for text searches and the notifications it gives so not a complete loss. :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Abhiheart:
No its not bocz u are in U..there must be some mistakes ..how much /system memory u have ?? Clear data of velver.apk or google search and try again :) ..

You need a app that can acess root memory, like Root Explorer, Root File Manager or any other app that allows you to browse files in root memory.

Then, browse to /system, and delete some useless apps, or apps that you can remove to /data partition (also, in Link2SD there's a option to convert system apps to user apps, you just need to click and hold the app you want, then select Convert to user app).

I recomend doing a backup before trying to delete something in /system, you can delete an important app.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] king martin 1976:
Re: GoogleNow Working with voice both online and offline latest ver7 & FAQ,Troublesho

Superb. I've been fiddling about with link2sd and filtered all the /system stuff. It all seems like important os stuff though so not sure what I can delete really.

If I convert something to a user app am I right in thinking it will then be installed to the partition where the internal apps are? (/data is it?)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] king martin 1976:
Re: GoogleNow Working with voice both online and offline latest ver7 & FAQ,Troublesho

It works! Wahoo! :D:D:)

Moved HTC gallery app and some sense fm radio widget I won't use. Freed up 34mb and flashed the zip. It searches now without hanging. Before it was real real slow. Prob cos part of the files were missing as it had filled my partition only leaving a few kb free.

I'm happy now, big thanks.

Voice search seems to work fine too. Result!

---------- Post added at 10:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:03 PM ----------

Damn. Spoke too soon. Works from inside the app, but if I hold the search key for quick voice search it just says voice search has stopped...

I think I'm making some progress here. It's to do with the association of the buttons. If I download maluuba siri alternative from the play store, then hold search key it asks what I want to open with, maluuba, voice search or google now. I've ticked always use this app and selected google now and that's fixed the search key. Same for the Mic sign on the browser.

I can't work out how to change the association of the mic key on the HTC keyboard though. Any ideas?

Just wanted to let people know on the Sennheiser headphones I got about 3 months ago. I bought them specifically for my Note for travel on the airplane. I think I maybe go on a plane twice a year so no need for the expensive Bose stuff.

I got these for about 21 bucks but they are now on sale for 18. Well worth the price. Very comfortable (had a 4 hour flight, no issues).

These Sennheiser 201 headphones would be great for that family trip you take once in a while. I also use them at home to get some work done when the kids are being loud.

Hello!

I updated my Nexus S on JB 4.1 3 or 4 weeks back... It ran absolutely fine..

But today when i put it on charge it does not show the thunderbolt sign on battery but charging shows when i jump to the battery in settings menu and it charges too. When i tried putting it on charge while turning off it automatically turns on..

What I have tried..

- Rebooting

- Pulling out battery and sim card.

- Checking USB cable

- Wiping Cache and reinstalling JB.

What should be done with it? Is it hardware problem?

I had the same problems with the micro USB port a few days ago: phone not charging, the PC would not recognize it, it sometimes showed as charging even when not plugged in.

I solved it by gently pushing up (towards the screen side) the pin inside the micro USB connector with a penknife and now it's fine.

Hope this helps.
