I looked through all the pages of this thread. The boot animations either didn't work for me or wasn't the ideal one I was looking for.

I am seeking the animation where the purple trail line spins around and brings up the Samsung logo. I missed that about unmodified stock or root stock ROMs.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mrlindquist:
Hi,

After the upgrade from GB to ICS, the Xperia Go performance seems to have been somewhat degraded. The homescreen is not smooth anymore (it was in GB), and most games seem to periodically stutter/lag.

I tried rooting my phone, and changing to the 'performance' scheduler, thus locking my CPU at 1GHz, the problem goes away. I don't really know much about these details, but I find it odd, that the 'ondemand' scheduler not longer gives a smooth experience.

I assume the GB firmware also uses the 'ondemand' scheduler.

What differences could be the cause for the stutter in ICS, and why is the scheduler no longer able to keep performance smooth ?

Hope someone can bring some insight, I'm curious!

Best!

Google now app launch

To open an application you can either say launch or open, but i was able to open an application only in English (US) not other countries languages.. fix for this is selecting more from the tool bar (example web, images, more ) you'll see that after a search scroll to the end you'll get a phone(1) icon... but ill keep you updated if I find a fix for it.

Did the new update of google now remove the "traffic to home" comman?

I used to say "traffic to home" and it displays the same picture as the trafic to home card that shows up automatically when your leaving work. Its helpful for when you accdentally swipe away the traffic card. I noticed "traffic to" and a specific address still works. Also "traffic to work" voice command no longer works but the card still shows up like its supposed to.

Has anyone else's Google Now voice changed from the English accent man to the US accented lady since the last update? I've checked my phone settings and the phone is set to UK English and when I click for an example it's the guy, but in Google Now the voice is the American woman. Also, since the last update my football cards don't show fixture times and when I click the card the Google web page with the fixtures shows kick off times in US Eastern Time. Weird.

Hello all. Before, I used to be able to launch Google Now, and say "Play Music Weezer" and it used to play the artist automatically with a few seconds of waiting. Now, it just gives me a choice of apps (Google Play, YouTube, Music Player). And I have to tap on the screen.

Is there a way to make it play the song automatically again? I'm on 4.1.2. Used to be able to trigger specific songs without having to take out the phone from my pocket with the Headset Button Controller app. Now that hands free functionality has gone away.

What's the point of all these fake commands?

I don't really see the purpose of listing all those fake commands that don't work. Where did they all come from, even Google doesn't list that many on their web page! The only one I've found that will speak at all to give the result is the "Who Is .." command, the others don't do anything but go to the Google search result for whatever it was that was said and that's in Chrome on the PC. None of them do anything at all on my Android phone! I even saw an ad on TV for this today but I don't see the point since it doesn't work. If this is all some giant April Fools joke they can stop now because it's already past. Seriously, has anyone really got this to work and if so, how did you do it?

---------- Post added at 04:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:57 AM ----------

Didn't help mine either. Actually neither my Android phone or Chrome have com.google.android.voicesearch so there's nothing to clear. Does the Google Voice Search app have to be installed separately? It says it's not compatible with any of my devices! I still think the whole thing is an April Fools joke!
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] xnickfx:
The commands work for me just fine and either display the facts or my voice engine speaks the answer. I'm not sure why they wouldn't work for you guys. All you have to do is press the Google mic button at the top of your home screen as you may already know, and the commands should work just fine. Your problem may be that if there isn't an answer or at least an accurate one then it will just do a Google Search. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] stevec5000:
That's really weird since my phone doesn't do anything and in Chrome only the "Who Is..." command will work! Why would they list a lot of commands then make it so just one of them works? There is a list of Voice Action commands but I tried them all and none of them do anything so it's not a question of not having an answer. I still think it's an elaborate fraud!

[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] abuttino:
I have a problem calling local businesses that aren't in my address book.

In earlier versions of Google Now, when I said "Call Home Depot" it would call the one nearest me. Now, it puts a list up of the closest Home Depots.

If I want to call my Doctor (which isn't in my address book) I would say "call (office name) in (city name)". Now if I say that, it points me to a google search of stuff that is completely irrelevant. BUT, If I say JUST the office name and city name, it'll put the listing up so I can press call.

This used to be automatic.

Is this some sort of a bug?
[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] eyan2011:
It's not a bug Google disabled both the commands. I had the same problem i think Google removed the "call" command so they don't end up calling the wrong number and about the nearest search they're providing you with options say you wanna avoid calling that same shop again.

[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] xnickfx:
I just tested it, I said "Call Pizza Hut" and it started dialing the nearest location after giving me some seconds to cancel. I don't know why you guys are having problem. I would just use your backup apps and flash the Google Nexus ROM that Google provides on their server then do what you normally do to get your phone how you like it and see of it works then. I don't use custom ROMs, I just unlock and root and take advantage of all those features. Maybe that's your problem, that's the only thing I can think of at this point as mine works perfectly fine for just about any command it has an answer for. I wish I could be of more help, good luck guys.

Create Google Now reminder hands free

Hi,

With the release of Moto X, I've been playing around with Google Now more on my Nexus4.

Can someone tell me if its possible to create a Google Now reminder without touching the screen? When I try to create one via voice, I still have to touch the screen to create the reminder, which defeats the whole purpose of hands free. I'd like to create remindes with a headset on (phone in my pocket).

I often have my headset on or plugged in and accessible near my shirt collar during the day.

Redoing search from results page

So I had heard that there was a keyword to get Google Now to redo a search from the results page if it got the voice recognition wrong the first time. I couldn't find it after multiple searches, so I decided to try some variation of "Google" or "ok Google" or something in some blind attempt to stumble on it. Apparently, the keyword is none of these. Finally, something possessed me to say "giggle"...and it worked. Was everyone else aware of this and I am just an idiot, or what?

EDIT: So now "ok Google" seems to be working, which was my original assumption that out was just mishearing "Google". Yet "Google" definitely wasn't working for retry at first, though it was working to initiate. Weird... (Maybe I am crazy!)
