Hello all, got a question for anyone whom can help. I found a port of the new search, "Google Now", from Jelly Bean that supposedly works with ICS. Just out of curiosity, has anyone tested this with the EVOLTE and gotten any luck? Perferebly with the mean rom. If I could get feed back that would be great, so I know if I should port it or not. Biggest thing I'm looking forward to in 4.1... Thanks in advance!
Here is the link where I found the Google Now port.

Not sure if this is the same one, but I have seen one ported that only works by typing, and not by voice. It is likely in the themes / apps section.

i'm going to get grilled for saying it but oh well ...
other then the card style layout, whats so different about this versus the normal google search that comes in ICS ?
i just don't see much ...
ok grill on
I have it working on Mean Rom 1.3. The difference is that it learns from your searches based on the cards that google has given and future ones they will release, so no its not exactly like regular search.

Yes and no, it actually does use regular search history too. The main thing that makes this awesome is the fact that it actually gathers all the data and presents it to you in a neat and quick format WHEN you need it.
I.E. if I google "results to X game" or something, it will continuously pop that card up throughout the match and at the end with the final result. If you do a quick search like "who's the actor in X film" it pulls up a clean cast list as opposed to googling "imdb cast X film" then clicking on it, and scrolling down the IMDB page/app. It's the little things

Nope. As far as I can tell from what I read, the voice is intertwined with Jellybean's kernel, so it probably won't come to ICS. What you CAN do is use a keyboard to "type" by voice search but you still have to hit search. It also will not speak the query back to you.

I just installed the "S Voice" that comes with the new SGS3 and it works. I found this out from this THREAD and this THREAD. It is ok and looks to work good with our device if you are running an ICS Rom. I am currently on MeanRom ICS v1.0 and it works good. Enjoy
Edit: One that should work after they tried and block us lol.

Just think of it as (dare I say it) Siri. It's pretty simple and easy to use.
Click the bottom-right if you need more help or go into the settings. If I were you, I'd turn of the 'Hi Galaxy' wakeup since it's pointless having to say that every time I want to use it.
Thanks op.

Double tap home didn't work for me, but maybe due to sense? Couldn't get it working on AOSP ICS on Desire either though.

I added your link to my OP
I did some searching and couldn't really come up with an answer. Maybe I searched the wrong keywords, I don't know...but I didn't find what I was looking for. I'm running the UCLE2 ICS leak and was wondering if it is supposed to have the text input/spell check feature on the android keyboard that is talked about on the Android website. Other ICS roms I have run on other phones have had it, and was wondering if its supposed to be in the leak or if Samsung took it out? Do others have this feature and I' just doing something wrong?
Are you talking about XT9 predictive text? Ive never heard of a spell check...

Sorry, I should have worded my question better. I'm talking about when you type a word wrong and it underlines it in red and you can touch the word to bring up a list of words to correct it with. Mine doesn't do that and was wondering if it was supposed to.
I don't see it anywhere in settings. But if you need, Google play has an app.

I was just looking to see why CM9 has inline underlining of misspelled words. But Stock doesn't. So it's an app? not a function of ICS?
Wait this app is not what i was looking for... CM9 has the dropdown built in as you type or after dictating.

I don't think it's the keyboard because it worked even when switched to other keyboards.

I was wondering if anyone out there is working on a port of Google Now for the Rezound ICS.. Would love to be able to run this on my pgone, just have no clue how to port anything.
On a side note is anyone working on a JB rom yet either?
last I checked it's not compatible for us. I believe it's strictly for 4.1 cause of the API level unless someone cam.correct me. since you didn't read and search much you could have answered your JB question easily. we don't even have a full stable aosp ics rom yet alone kernel source so JB is a longshot for now
i think it possible indeed
if you will look at this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvqSR13gpGk this is a review of android 4.1 jelly bean running on galaxy s3. when he tried to open google now, it's showed a message: "google search stopped working". what's mean, that google now is google search application on the android 4.1. what it only need to be, it's get the google search apk from jelly bean rom of galaxy nexus, get the apk code (this is how to get the code of the apk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ocVGRtjuD-g), and with the code make an application for the ics and try to install. according to this logic, this very simple to port google now for ice cream sandwich, even gingerbread. i wish this is how it conducted. if yes, it's mean google now for everyone
---------- Post added at 03:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:59 PM ----------
and after it will succes, developers will can add google now some sources of the siri like applications that develop until now like iris, skyvi, mira, s voice and more, to make google now to answer for questions in cards that if we asked her now, google now will take us automaticly to search results. and then, google now will be the ultimate voice assistant. she still can't answer like that like siri. but after that, google now will destroy siri once and for all!

Tried searching, all I have right now is my phone (no computer currently), which makes filtering/narrowing down a search more difficult. Not necessarily saying aosp, just a developer implementing parts of jb into a current rom for the rezound.

I'm not sure if you were still trying to get this to work, but I since no one put this answer in this thread, I will.
This voice workaround works pretty nicely. Basically, you replace the search widget with the google now widget, then use ICS's speech to text and push it into the search box for google now.

I've seen many threads for other phones running CM9 that have Google Now but they all (at least the ones I've seen) involve replacing the stock Google search app. Would we be able to do anything with this or does the fact that we can't alter the apps that come with the from limit us in this way?

Google now is not fully functional for anything other than Jelly Bean ROMs. Cards work but you cant do a voice search and there are other bugs. There is a small work around for voice search that uses another app from the Play Store but it still is not that great. I have it on my phone. But I rarely ever touch it becasue it just isnt the same without the voice search. Honestly, S Voice from the Galaxy S3 works a lot better.

As soon as CM10 (or CMX) is fully functional, I'll be all over it. I've tried a couple of the builds, and it's progressing very nicely. Deck & toast are doing an amazing job with it. For me, it's pretty much a camcorder away from being a daily.
There is no on/off button for LTE like there was for WiMAX. It's always on unless you go into wireless settings and turn it off.

Am I the only one who's not a big fan of google now? It bothers me how scrolling through search results is slower than on the standard google search app (i.e. the screen doesn't continue scrolling for a bit after you take your finger off). I also find that sometimes tapping on links for sub results doesn't work...the link is highlighted briefly but the page never loads. Is anyone else having problems with that? I'm using Clean Rom at the moment but I've noticed the same things on Mean.
Is it possible to revert back to the stock google search? Is there an apk I can replace or is google now embedded in the ROM?
