Anybody installed the Google Now.apk? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

I flashed it this morning. It's running very stable. Too early to see if it's hit my battery hard, but so far, I haven't noticed anything to suggest it will.

Stopped working after today's CM9 nightly (Aug 8, 2012)
I installed it yesterday actually, and it was working great on my CM9 nightly version at the time. Very cool when it tells you how long it will take to get to work/home.
This morning, after updating to the latest nightly, it got replaced by the default google search box. So I tried re-installing it but I couldn't get it working on the latest version of CM9. Re-installing/uninstalling/re-installing still didn't make it work properly.
Did something in the current nightly break it, or is it something I'm missing I wonder?

Sounds like the nightly brokie it. I'm still running stock ICS.

I installed it a few hours ago. It crashes randomly. not sure of the cause, could be a bad flash. Still wondering about the auto-traffic info on the way home. Dunno how long it'll take to "learn" my routes.

I have it working great on fj ics stock rom.

I think it cribs from your Latitude preferences at first.

Works good on FJ ICS Rom

I installed it yesterday and so far I like it... Not sure how much I'll use it once the newness wears off though.

Flashed it about two days go ago, I'm using only one-goldie version rom. So far no issues, much more accurate than s voice. I I find myself using g now a lot more.

Absolutely love it. I flashed the Mikey_6 Offline running cm9 stable and everything works good except it doesn't make the sound when you launch the voice search. Maybe something I'm missing?

running the same setup. i hear the sound but its really low. im using a jelly bean theme and it changes the little mic emblem at the end of the search bar to "google". other than that runs great. i had a nexus that was on jelly bean and google now pretty much picked up everything from there.

It was working perfectly on cm9 nightly about 7-29 and now on stable cm9 pressing search gives the normal Google search box and long pressing search goes to voice search on Google now so I can't access the main menu. Tried wiping cache, uninstalling, everything and I guess it's just broken

I'm pretty sure all you have to do is go to your app drawer and you will have an app just called Google. This will take you to your google now page with your cards. Give it a shot.

Thanks for the help, but no dice. Installing the 08-11 cm9 nightly fixed the tap search thing (makes it the Google now? version, looks similar to old search box but with similar design to Google now) but clicking the app in the drawer brings it back to that screen. Cards aren't a big deal for me but it appears different versions of cm9 have differing success.

[Q] SMS Notification - CM9

Hello, I am running the newest nightly build 03/26/12 of CM9 for my i777 and I cannot seem to understand why my screen doesn't wake when I get an SMS message. I have asked in the ported thread, but I haven't got a response. Hopefully somebody can help me out. Thank you.

stock SMS app may not natively. Best bet is to grab an alternative from play store like "handcent" or "go".

Eh, I guess I will wait for a fix or find another ROM. I am quite fond of the stock messaging app.

I hear ya.. have you tried hand cent? HIGHLY customizable. You can make it look HOWEVER you want with, seriously. Also like I said, stock messeging app may not wake the phone up natively. You could be waiting for a fix that isn't need or gonna happen. Also, play store MIGHT have an app to wake phone upon notification..

Where is Google Now?

I'm running CM10, the one posted by Cyanogen. It's running great and I love it, but I'm really confused as to where Google Now is. I flashed the gapps for Jelly Bean and it seems to just not exist anywhere on my phone. Can anyone please enlighten me as to what's going on?

That's just the problem, holding the menu button does nothing, and my lockscreen only has the camera and unlock.
Most likely then CM didn't finish Google Now since in one of their videos the one phone had the same problem since they didn't finish Google Now on it but fixed it after. Probably next release or so it'll be there.
Go to the app manager in the settings go to all and see if you have Google search

I had this same problem but mine was to due to the fact that I flashed gapps after booting up the phone for the first time. I went back into recovery, full wipe, flashed Rom and immediately after flashed 7-16 Gapps and when reboot was done I had google now. Maybe you can give this a shot if you haven't already.

YouTube on CM 10 Jellybean?

Does anyone know how to get a working copy of YouTube for CM10? After flashing CM 10 It won't show JP in the market. Oddly enough it is in my app drawer, however it freezes a lot.

Screen record

Ive always used screen cast in the past which worked fine but on the jelly bean ROMs the video just becomes a garbled mess of static. Anyone have a different app that they know is working?

Even if you go into menus or apps? That's when mine starts looking like a 1960's television.
Would you mind posting your screencast settings and rom? I'm on cm10 nightly
This is what I get when I open a menu, drawer or app. Tried every setting and no joy.
.....edit. I can't upload a picture because the xda app sucks balls and keeps telling me to upgrade when I have the latest version
Update: it seems to run better right after a restart before any apps are opened but still goes nuts if you try and open the drawer.

[Q] GE S4 rom by dubsy

Hey guys, so I got my S4 around July 4th and realized the same day I didn't like touchwiz. Got home, rooted and threw Dubbsy's rom on it.. I have been in love with the rom since I got it, never had an issue with gibberish provider name (except once) the lack of LTE bars didnt bother me because it still worked. The only major issue I ever had with it was my recent apps option stopped working. Well I just got the chance to update it to the newest build of the deoxed version and it has fixed the LTE bars and recent apps works again. It is fantastic and I really appreciate all the work you do! The ONLY issue I have is I only have 3 home screen pages. Is this a limitation of the rom, am i missing something simple??? I could use some help here and if it is a limitation of the rom, no big deal I can live with it until a newer version comes out

Dubbsy's ROM is nice and stock, with very few modifications.
If you want more home screens, I highly recommend simply throwing Nova Launcher on there. Grab it in the Market. It looks and performs 99% identically to the stock Nexus home screen, but adds a bit of customization. It's what I'm running on Dubbsy's and I've got no issues whatsoever.
If you still have a copy of one of the older versions of the ROM, pull launcher2.apk out of it's /system/app/ folder. I noticed the same thing and use 5 screens myself.
Once you pull the .apk replace the launcher2.apk in your current /system/app/ with it using a root enabled file manager under rw mode. Like the CM installed on the 4.9 edition or Root Explorer.
Once you've done that go ahead and reboot and you should be good.
At least, that's what I did.

Is that the only thing it changes? Any major changes to the system??

Yea, it only changes the launcher. That's the only apk you would be replacing, and you wouldn't be using a third party substitute, it would be the genuine launcher since you would've pulled it from one of Dubbsy's older builds. I personally pulled it from 4.7.5 test since that's what I had on my sdcard at the time. Works fine.

I thought I only put the 3 page launcher in my odex version. I may have accidentally put it in the deo also. I'll fix that on next release if that's the case.

No issues with GPS here. Try and flash back to a stock based ROM, get a GPS lock and then flash back. It's an odd fix, but it seems to work for some.

Yea I had this issue on the last build, it was weird, it didnt work for weeks then randomly it started working fine, but would randomly freeze once in a blue moon.
The GPS also never got a lock on the last build, and i just double checked, it just sits there saying searching for GPS never gets an exact lock.
