I know this is the Nexus 5 forum, but Google Now is on other devices and this thread just got linked from the XDA front page.

I had some success for this with my Nexus 7 with Android 4.3, but not with my HTC DNA on 4.1.1. Not sure if it's a pure-Google thing or just an Android version issue, but I think a lot of folks will get disappointed that nobody seems to mention (here or elsewhere) what versions of Android these Easter Eggs work with. Don't get your hopes too high if you're not running a Nexus device and therefore a recent version of Android!

[Nexus 5 General] Vincent Law:
Yeah, the first one about the hotwords isn't really an easter egg. It's simply a side effect of the very greedy voice recognition system, that basically looks at cadence of the words instead of the actual words. Easter eggs are secret things intentionally added to software, not bugs/unintended side effects.

I've managed to trigger it just by mumbling, even.

for some people (such as myself) it doesn't matter the sudo is mis translated. it still gives the appropriate response and the proper search is still suggested. it may have to do with your privacy settings or you may have web history or suggested searches disabled.... maybe you just need to visit xkcd.com more often and the phone will catch on..

A factory reset does not remove GAPPS, nor should it remove the system. You must've done something else.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BlueCyanide95:
Simply stated, I am seeking a way to make this device a dependable phone, as I am stuck with it at the time being. I loved my original GNex, but what Verizon keeps sending me is garbage.

I have had quite a strand of bad luck with this device. I am averaging a warranty phone about once every six weeks. I have actually tried talking to Verizon about exchanging the phone for one of equal or comparable value, and they won't do anything. I am convinced that these certified like new devices are junk.

Issues that keep causing me to warranty the phone are:

- Charging Issues

The phone quits accepting a charge. I have replaced the battery.

- Phone Locking Up

Recently, while using apps, the phone has developed a habit of where it locks up, and the quits accepting input. It's like it goes to sleep, but it doesn't wake up. The only way to get it to function is to remove and reinsert the battery.

- Phone turning off on its own

Self Explanatory

- Radio Failure within the device

I'm not against rooting the device, I have kept them stock, and wouldn't know what to get, I just want to do something that will make this a dependable device and possibly solve any problems I may be having. They seem to be reoccurring problems with each handset they send me:( Any tips would be greatly appreciated as I have another one due to arrive tomorrow!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iLeopard:
I don't think these refurbished headsets go through much, if any, testing before they are re-issued. What I would suggest is to begin with flashing a factory android image via the boot loader. There are plenty of guides to doing this. This step will ensure that any problems that you may be experiencing are not software related. A stock image reflag should do the job for the most part, but if you find yourself looking for more you can flash an alternate ROM, these won't solve any issues that you may still experience in a stock ROM however.

Found this thread via Google. I fixed it by either removing "Android.mk" and "irda.c" or just renaming "Android.mk" to something else from ~/android/system/device/samsung/jf-common/irda

This will kill any IR functionality, though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Gandalf:
This is because the IRDA frameworks aren't added in to the frameworks yet. We have this issue on omni, but I know for a fact that omni doesn't have the IRDA frameworks. I thought CM had them in the cm11 source but apparently not since you're getting this error.

For future reference, that is not the actual line in the terminal output that is where the build was killed at. it's farther up. easiest way to find it is to go to the end of your terminal output and search for "error"

just do the following, and you'll be good to go.

FROM ROOT OF SOURCE:

cd device/samsung/jf-common

git fetch http://review.cyanogenmod.org/CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_jf-common refs/changes/25/53625/1 && git cherry-pick FETCH_HEAD

cd ..

cd ..

make clobber

brunch jflteatt

you may or may not run into more build errors, just post them up in here and i'll get a fix for ya

I recently bought the Netgear PTV3000 and I am using it with my Nexus 5. Installation and everything else worked like a charm.

- Whenever I connect my Nexus 5 to my TV, the screen resolution of the TV switches from 1080p to 720p. How come? It's supposed to be 1080p.

- In a couple videos on YouTube I saw that Samsung devices dont mirror the screen when stream videos but rather show a UI for controlling. How can I achieve this on my Nexus?
