There's a thread on SlickDeals.net about it. This will not work if you try to upgrade (which I do not think you can even do anymore). I think they are doing this with people who have been with TMO for 8+ years. I think it might be Bridge to Value (BTV).

I would call, hit the prompt for cancelling something, and when you get to the CSR, ask about switching your $20 Android Preferred Plan to the $5 5GB plan a buddy at work just recently got moved to. They will know what you're talking about.

They moved my same 5GB plan from $20 to $5 (reduced by $15).

Git the notification for the new BTU firmware today... wouldn't do it OTA as the servers have been overloaded, tried kies... it downloads, hangs and disappears.. anyone had this issue? a fix?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Try uninstalling and reinstalling Kies. Best way is to download the entire rom from www.sammobile.com and flash it with Odin.

Already tried, if I flash it from Odin will it delete my data? Will I need to do a factory reset? Or would it be exactly the same as using kies or OTA? thanks (:

Hi

I tried searching for a noob help thread to post this but couldn't find one.

I just installed a custom Rom (trickdroid) and I want to restore all my homescreen pages and shortcuts the way they were. It's the same stock launcher and I have a backup of all the user and system apps using titanium, so I'm sure I just need to restore one of the system apps but I don't know which one. Can anyone help?

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saudkhan:
Hi All,

Yesterday I flashed my Nexus 4 with android 4.3 (was very excited about it, i dont know why). One thing I have noticed since that update is that if I click the mic and say "Navigate Home" it doesnt work. Before in android 4.2.2 it used to show me the route to home and navigate. I tried saying "Navigate to London" and it still doesnt work. Actually it doesnt work with any cities. I think it doesnt recognises the word "Navigate" now. All it does it that it shows me some google searches which are not even related to maps and navigation. I have selected my language to be English UK. In 4.2.2 it was the same and it worked. Is anyone facing this issue? If not then does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks in advance :)

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpmccormick:
This has been broken for me ever since they updated maps. I have reverted to the old version of maps, but it still doesn't work. I have tried reverting to old versions of Google Now, but it still doesn't work.

I use "Navigate to [...]" and "Map of [...]" all the time, but they have been broken for well over a month. "Set Alarm [...]" still works fine. I do not use any other voice commands.

I hope someone can figure it out... I really, really, really miss this feature!

---------------------------------------------------------------------

What the !?!?!?!?! So seriously this has been broken everytime I try it for over a month. It was broken 30min ago before I came here and started ranting about it in multiple threads. I've tried to "Navigate to [BusinessName]" and it just would never work. I just tried the above example "Navigate to Texas" and it worked perfectly! Then I tried BusinessName and Home as well and they both worked. Yay! How did it just fix itself due to me posting complaints? Is Google watching me -lol/jk Maybe "Navigate to Texas" is the magic work that unlocks it so it starts working for everything? WTF

So very very strange. My ROM is 4.2. I am running the latest Google Now which was recently updated through market. I am running a custom BlackMaps.apk based on the last version before they changed the UI. I am soooo happy to have this back. Hopefully it doesn't disappear on me again.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] draj53:
Mine started working

Think I may have found a fix (accidentally). I was having the same issue but then I opened up the main google now app and then pressed on the voice icon beside the search bar and gave it a navigate to command which worked instantly. It then seems to work with the voice search widget once you have used the navigate command through the app itself. I hope this helps..:)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mojolive:
I wanted to confirm it also worked for me

I was also having the same problem that people were as to when I said navigate home running android 4.2.2 and also 4.3

I also tried it with a few other phones like my HTC one – M7 and also a Moto X and what I found was the same as what you suggested going to Google now and set up Google now and click the microphone and say navigate home and then it will work just fine. One thing I did notice is that you have to set up Google maps in my places to put your home address to have it work. thanks for this great tip

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjorloff1:
What worked for me...

Hey, not sure if my solution will help anyone, but figured I'd throw it up here.

I was having the issue on the Nexus 5. Couldn't get navigate home or navigate to work to function by speaking. Found that if you scroll all the way to the bottom of Google Now, and select the little icon on the bottom that looks a bit like a magic wand, there are options in there to set up Home and Work if you select "Places". Mine were already set up and not working, so I just set them up again. That seemed to fix it! Hope that helps someone.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yell0wSmileY:
my "navigate to work" command works fine on all my devices, but the "navigate home" will not work. I keeps popping up google search results. I tried it on my new Nexus 5, Nexus 7 and my old Epic 4G Touch (running stock 4.1). All will not navigate home...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Yell0wSmileY:
possible fix:

I loaded Google Maps on my desktop, clicked the options icon, and selected My Places.

then on the left under CREATE MAP where it says HOME, I clicked the down arrow and EDIT.

I changed my home address to something nearby, and clicked SAVE.

I reopened GMaps on my phone and it was still showing the home icon on my old address so I went into settings,

and signed out of my account and then signed back in. The home icon was now in the new address. So I closed GMaps,

and said "ok google, navigate home" and sure enough it's working again.

I tried it on my Nexus 7/old Epic 4G Touch and "navigate home" is working again on all devices.

This has to be some sort of issue on Google's end, perhaps the servers aren't syncing correctly or something.

I'm gonna wait a few mins and then edit my address back to my actual home address and see what happens..

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] illogos:
Necro, I know, but I fixed this on my Nexus 5. I had to enable Web History. At some point in time Google changed things to check Web History (recent searches) for locations and places even though it's fully listed in Google Now and Google Maps. After enabling history and setting addresses again / searching addresses in maps google now started to work instantly by saying navigate home / work.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] em1davis:
Fix for me

I had multiple phones with this problem multiple accounts.

1st I cleared out the home location stored in maps

2nd tried to put my address in and it said it couldn't find it

3rd searched for my address in maps and discovered that Google has decided my street name is two words instead of one.

4th edited my home location in maps settings to be the wrong spelling

All good now..

I wonder if Google updated maps and changed the spellings and such.

Good luck..
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] YoungStarDC:
Heya everyone,

First off all I would like to say it's great to be here on the XDA forums. I look forward to my time here.

As for this thread, I live in the Netherlands and screen protectors like the Spigel SGP aren't easy to come by if you don't want to pay for absurd shipping costs. So I was wondering if the official Samsung Screen Protectors impair S-Pen functionality. Since its Samsung and the note 8's strongest point is the S-Pen, I would think not. But seeing how I'll have to fork over 25 euros, I just want to be sure. The only alternative to me seems a Belkin screen protector.

I would be grateful if somebody could provide some insight or experience. Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] CCallahan:
Welcome to XDA.

I have not tried the Samsung ones but am using just some cheapo "dry apply" ones off Ebay and they do not interfere with the S-Pen. Would think the Samsung ones would be fine as well. Might not slide quite as well but that may actually be a good thing.

Sorry I can't be of more help.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] YoungStarDC:
Thank you CC (hope you don't mind me shortening it)!

I feel a lot more confident now. I use the same type of cheap protectors for my phone but for one reason or the other, I just want to invest a bit more in this tablet. It's my first one and I am incredibly happy with it. It's just very powerful and versatile. Once I get the Samsung Protectors I will let you know how they do.

Thanks again for the insights!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] YoungStarDC:
I have applied them and after a full day I can say there is no reduction in S-Pen functionality. I can't, however use my finger to write on S-Note anymore, but I actually can't remember if I was able to do it before. Anyway, besides that minor point, everything seems excellent.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] CCallahan:
Great. Sounds like that was the way to go then.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] CCallahan:
This is good information but I can't seem to figure out what this has to do with the topic of this thread? Discussion is about screen protectors not cases.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] YoungStarDC:
Like CCallahan says, this thread is indeed not about cases but screen protector. But mistakes can be made ofcourse. As for your problem, I think the magnet might have temporarily tempered with the hardware controlling the screen. Try to stop using the case for a while to see if it works. If it doesn't, send it to Samsung for reparation. This should fall under the warranty if the case is indeed the problem. The case I use is the Belkin Cinema Stripe cover. It's pricey but amazing quality if you ask me. You can check it out here:

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyijedi:
No need to unroot. You'll get the OTA even when rooted. It just doesn't seem like anyone has actually gotten the OTA yet. Keep checking your tablet, but you're probably better off checking here for someone to post the download link once they get it.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
You know that you can flash a factory download without losing data, right? Android Police did a writeup if you want the full details, but the short and sweet version is download the .tar, extract the contents, and then just run fastboot flash boot boot.img, reboot, fastboot flash system system.img, and you're basically done.

They're doing a staged rollout.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Even if they did, it's not a guaranteed thing. The clear Google Framework and CHECKIN phone codes are just ways to possibly bump up your chances. If you want the update badly, you can flash the factory images from the developer page. If you take care and don't use the flash-all script, then you can keep data in the process.

The "clear google services framework" trick has worked for me for many updates. It did not fail me today either. I just got 4.3 on both of my Nexus devices after waiting a few days without the trick.
