I downloaded a theme from one of the threads on this forum because I liked it. So read online that the way you install themes is that you put them in your sd card, boot into cwm, and install the zip from the sd card. When I get into the cwm menu, I press the power button to select the 'instal zip from sd card' option but nothing works. Any help?
press the HOME button... the buttons are all mapped differently in CWM
I have the ATT one though.. I dont have a home button. or at least a physical one.

This confused me at first as well. The power button is actually the back button, the home/house touch button is the select button.

Here you can see what has happend to the menu button.
There where you need it, it is a little button on the right corner or on playstore right left corner.
But the optiones are not away, in ICS you've got more options!
You still need that menu button for legacy apps, otherwise you couldn't access the menu.
Long-pressing home button still acts as a multitask button.

I'd prefer the option to use the menu button as a multitasking button, get the settings icon in proper ics apps, and long press for menu in legacy apps. Is that option available?

I just got jb but when I long press the home button it brings up task manager. I read somewhere it should open google now.
Any solution??
Long press opens task manager and on the bottom there are three buttons: first one opens task manager, second(with the G icon) is the google now, and the third is kill all active apps.

Or just map one of the custom launchers gestures for swype up to launch Google search/now, or app drawer button gesture up, kinda mimicking aosp way of launching it.

Well that only works if you doesn't have an app opened =)
How do I access it? I read you hit the home button twice but that doesn't work for me.

Should be in your apps drawer. Once you access it, hit settings if you want and you can make it activate from the home button presses.
Long press the menu key to activate Google Now though - better than S-Voice in my opinion
Not sure why I didn't see it before, thank you.

Did you explored settings?
Usually custom ROMs allows users to change behavior of every buttons.
