That is only a project of me and other friend . Stopped because the rumors of chrome beta for armv6 .

In a few days need to try again.

He said for me no all funtions are working but the problem of forse close already have stopped .

I will test for see if i can continue or no.

But i can say . Need a little work but chrome can work in custom roms and armv6 devices.

For now its only a personal project. But if US make it woks more or less 78% i'll open a tread . I AM no a good dev , but i AM trying because too much persons want it .

No cards shows up in google now for me. I m using cm 10 build 7. I had trimmed the rom to 97 mb, after that i flashed the latest gapps for 4.1. I have 1mb left in /system.

Cards don't show up even if i manually open google now. Not even sample cards. Please help.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dovidhalevi:
Is Google Now "on?"

You might try other versions.

You can install as user-app.

You can live with the 1meg on system.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] akshay.s:
Yes Google Now is ON.

When i open it manually all i get is loading circle and then nothing!

Am i missing something?

Please let me know how much /system space is required before flashing gapps.

Sorry Rashed, another question about your packages regarding Google Now: for your Jan 7th gapps release, d'you know which Google Now release / version you modified (Play Store's October or December release)?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Rashed97:
October
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mixednuts:
Modified that Google Now in hopes of getting voice recognition going, right?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Rashed97:
Not really my main goal ;)

Main goal is to provide the best GAPPS package for ARMv6
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AfonsoADR:
But gnow voice never will works ?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Rashed97:
Practically. Google Now voice requires an ARMv7 chip, which we don't have
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dovidhalevi:
Can run though the old voice engine using the voice assist widget but not the same thing.

The ultimate hack would be a module for Xpose/Framework that substitutes call to the old voice engines for the new ARMv7 calls. This gets implemented at run time, no decompiling the Google Now apk or any quasi-legal tricks. Google will not like this either but it was their choice to lock their app into ARMv7.

k so.. i`ve installed this ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1811325 -- the lg p500 one) on my p500, and i finally got to installing gapps. After i have tried multiple zips (all with the same/similar result) i finally broke down and posted.

The result basically is that i can log into gmail just fine, but i can`t find an icon for the app store. There is space on the phone, i did check that each time i did a new gapps install.

Any input on the matter would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers.

EDIT: yeah made it work. I re-flashed the phone installing this version of gapps before the first boot. Works great.

Cheers

.

EDIT2: Ok, noticed i can call people but i can't be called, so I flashed back the initial froyo, upgraded to gingerbread using the lg tool, installed cyanogen 10 unofficial. Each time up to this point, including this point, everything worked fine.

I then proceeded to installing this gapps and my incoming is not working again. I can call people but I can`t be called or receive msgs. I`m gonna format and flash the cyanogenmod 10 ROM again, backup the gsm files (if i can find them, my google so far turned out nothing on that matter), install gapps, place back the gsm files that worked, and try that.

After that I solemnly give up.

EDIT3: I re-flashed the C10 mod, installed gapps-jb-20121011-signed and everything is working great. Hopefully this post will save someone some time.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Rashed97:

This is a copy of my post from Arjen's thread, as it is more appropriately posted here:

"I also experienced no keyboard, after flashing gapps, with both rashed's February 4 build cm10.1, and Adam's February 8 nightly cm10.1. Finally got it to work, by deleting keyboard from rom, and installing as user app (/data), and using rahulsby's gapps. These gapps don't include GoogleNow.apk or Google TTS.apk which seem to interfere with keyboard, wanting to voice input, constantly. Still, voice search won't work. Haven't got that part figured out yet. Possibly delete, and install from play store?

Edit: Did some research. Rahulsby has removed the following libs from gapps: libfilterpack_face detect.so

libfrsdk.so

libgcomm_jni.so

libgoogle_recognizer_jni.so

libpatts_engine_jni.so

libspeexwrapper.so

libvoicesearch.so

Possibly leaving some of these in will enable voice search.

Edit: I realized that because the cm10.1 roms and gapps were so large that this is when I started converting Latinime.apk (keyboard) to a user app. So I flashed January 8 build with Latinime as system app, reboot, set up networks (working keyboard), reboot recovery, flashed gapps (rahulsby) , reboot system,... no keyboard. System partition =179mb.

I can't yet say that the keyboard does not work as system app with cm10.1. It may be something in the gapps, or something that rahulsby took out. Next step... I'm gonna trim the rom excessively, leave the keyboard in place, and flash the normal light gapps. Will edit this post.

EDIT: I got the keyboard to work, as a system app. It was not the rom, but was what the gapps did to the rom. And it was not anything that rahulsby took out, but what he left in the modified gapps, previously packaged by rashed. Two libs were included (identical with the exception of name):

Libjni_Latinime.so

Libjni_Latinimegoogle.so

The first, when flashed, will overwrite the original lib in the rom. I did a little searching and found a thread where the second lib was renamed as the first, because of a missing driver. So I am assuming that this had a similar purpose. But it does not work here. Since this is a problem with gapps, and not the rom, I will not speak of this further. I will repost in rashed's gapps thread."

Although, it may have been presumptive for me to say that rahulsby edited and repackaged rashed's gapps package, rashed's package also has these libs, and so has the same effect.

Does voice recognition work after installing voice recognition gapps??
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dovidhalevi:
I have published instructions before. The older, "on-line" voice recognition works, get VoiceSearch from Play. You can get the voice recognition search into Google Now using Voice Search Assistant from Play.

The "off-line," newer voice recognition will not work on an ARMv6.

You should be able to extract it from any other ROM for your device. Copy it to SDCARD and the use a file manager, I prefer ES File Explorer, to install the apk.

I cant get these gapps to work on my lg p500 :(

I installed cm 10-20130108-unofficial-p500 with clockworkmod rom mangaer.

Then downloaded gapps from here and installed them with rom manager, phone reboots flashes gapps shows that everything went fine, then starts says updating android, finishes fine, but i cant see any gapps, no play store for example.... :(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dovidhalevi:
One more time with feeling: ROMs and gapps must be trimmed to fit on our phones. Read a zillion posts on this.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dovidhalevi:
There is a MarketHelper.apk around (got link from Pulse News reference) which works without vnc (which the older MarkedEnabler needed).

A bit ticklish, a couple of reboots. Was able to fool Play into "installing" chrome and "updating" google search (from desktop). Unfortunately, both downloads failed due to "insufficient memory" and Play lists both as "installed." Rashed's edition of google search is, chromium certainly is not. (Sideloaded real chrome has FCed immediatly. Have no newer google search to sideload.

Nice try, anyway.

The authors do not want the app uploaded anywhere so contact me if you want to try it.

Update:

Succeeded in installing latest and greatest from play. Insisted in removing the old one because it was sideloaded, then installed.

Results: Goes through the motions, yes-I'm-in-then dies. On repeated execution, title screen, cards will appear etc., then dies.

So I restored Rashed's version from Titanium. Did the same thing! However, this did send me weather cards which I have not gotten in notifications in ages.

Tried again from Play with same results.

Finally removed it, installed from the gapps, up and running again. No weather to notifications but get program works as it did before.

I have Overlays placing a shortcut to the Voice-search-assistant, nearly invisible covering the two positions that show Google's mic icon, upper right corner from the ICS search widget and below that when the mountains show. Get that widget instead of FCing google search.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dovidhalevi:
Sherpa!

This may be Google's answer to Siri (there are umteen such things on Play, most work on our phones off the older (online) voice engine or their own engine) and some of these were around before Siri became buzz. Most have cutesy girls or boys names, some have cartoon graphics and other irrevevancies. However, this one, squirreled away in Spain (choose between English and several national Spanish varieties) until recently, may become a gapp.

Play said incompatible, not an ARMv6 problem, but not available in my country (Israel)

Tried MarketHelper (BTW, this in on XDA xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2146216 ) but it did not help (maybe spoofing country does not quite work). This dev has another, older app, actually a Chrome extention, veeerrrrryy useful, to download from Play to the desktop. Follow the links from the above thread! This would not download the google now apk but did get Sherpa! Sideloaded it, opened an account, and works like a charm.

Whether it is really better than Jeannie or any of the numerous others remains to be seen. But Google seems to like this one.

(BTW, just like Jeannie, it gives me temperatures in Fahrenheit and no explicit option to change to metric units!)

Hey everyone, as you may know, I recently came over from the Captivate. It was a great phone but the SGS2 is obviously better. However, one thing I miss already is the voodoo sound analog gain adjustment since I can't seem to find good listening levels on the SGS2. At the lowest volume, music is too loud through my earbuds (when I'm in a quiet setting), but when I'm in my car, I need to boost it to the max using the gain boost in ExTweaks. I can't seem to find a happy medium that allows me to have both high and low volumes like I did on the Cappy. I am aware that the SGS2 doesn't have the audio hardware to utilize something like voodoo sound, so what apps do people generally prefer to manage this with? I would prefer something that doesn't make it inconvenient to change the volume.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RootTheMachine:
No, the same exact setting is changed by both, but using louder is much more convenient because it is adjusted automatically. However, some kernels have another volume bar that only extweaks can change, but that's just certain kernels. And btw, it does work on jb, not sure what that one guy was talking about.

There is an old Chinese curse: "may you live in interesting times". On devices like a phone, there is something to be said for stability, as long as the functionality that it delivers is sufficient. I've fallen into the "I want something new" path myself many many times over the years, but the reality is that may doubleshot users use their devices for their jobs. Consider the phone a tool--how often are there major advances to hammers? What is more important is in the long-run, what can you do with the tool? If you are boored with the phone, start with android development, and come up with ideas on what YOU can do with it, and deliver to us applications that make us amazed. Android isn't an end-goal, it is a tool.
