Google Now voice not working - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

I updated to JB and love the Google Bow feature. Today I can't get the voice to work.
For example, when I ask for the score of a football game, it will being up the card, but will no no longer speak the score to me.
Is there a setting somewhere that can turn this on or off? Any help is appreciated
Thank you.

I've noticed the voice doesn't always work for me either.

Several users have reported similar issues with Google now after installing a custom jelly bean rom. What rom are you running? The simple fix is to uninstall the current Google now using Titanium Backup or root explorer and then download Google now from the play store.
If this helps you please hit the thanks button

I figured out the problem. The media volume was turned all the way down. I had to go to YouTube and play a video, then turn up the media volume. I then went back to Google Now and the voice returned

You have to uninstall the other version first.
Can any one publish their posts as public with the new app?

I've got the apps installed but it seems like music isn't wanting to load my library. Is anyone else having this problem or am I just being impatient?

Nvm i was just being impatient.
I'm using the new music with no problems. I had to uninstall the old one and reboot after install. Google plus works but I don't have a widget like I had with the last version

My only gripe with Google+ is I still haven't discovered any way to change your profile picture without logging into the website.
Profile > touch your photo
Did they fix the overplay issue where streaming music would sometimes repeat instead of moving onto the next track?

Good to know I'm not the only one with that problem.
I thought I goofed something up.
music 4.0
i uninstalled the current music (i uninstalled the orig photon music and i was running google music ever since day one) and pasted music 4.0 in system/apps did a reboot and it runs great.
although i do not see to much difference between V3 and 4.0, but it looks like it runs smooth and there are a few settings added (but then again i didnt play much with the settings in v3)
it also has a smaller widget so i added a shortcut to the app next to the widget. its whatev i guess.

I've been running Music V4 for a couple of days and I haven't experienced the overplay of songs(songs repeat after finishing current time exceeds total time) This used to happen at least 5+ times a day so I'm thinking they fixed it in this latest version. Bravo Google.

No xda app in play store

I can't find xda in the play store. Its not under my installed apps and when I search for it it's not there. Anyone else?
We're comin from a pure power source.
I can't find it in my Play Store either. (Still feel like a child when I call it "the Play Store".) It's not on the Google Play web "Play Store" either. I use Tapatalk, so I haven't searched for it in quite some time. Interesting though.
Yea...when I was making this thread I kept typing 'market'...lol. I wonder if it was pulled for some reason
We're comin from a pure power source.
Google Play Store makes our phones sound like a Play Thing. Just sayin. I dunno about it disappearing though. I'd say PM a Moderator and check again later today.
The xda app isn't on there currently. There was an issue with the Google checkout or some jazz like that and they are working on the problem.

My phone just downloaded it automatically after rooting and putting a new rom on there this morning, so it definitely exists although the search results may show otherwise. I'll check my play store when I get a chance and let you know what I find.
--- Turns out you're absolutely right. It's just not there at all when I search on my phone. Must be a bug in the "Play" place.
As before mentioned, XDA tweeted about this the other day to inform everyone that the apps are temporarily unavailable on the store. They should be back soon hopefully.

[Q] Apps won't download when started from playstore website

Hi all,
I have googled, searched and even called Google themselves but I cannot start a download from my desktop browser and have it install on my phone.
Phone does nothing at all, sits there pretending I haven't asked it to do anything.
The app will appear in My Apps in the play store and I can download and install from the device directly.
I've followed the guidelines on Google website, signing out of talk etc but still no luck.
I did manage to make it work by going back to stock, then flashing SuperNexus but within four days it's broken again.
Does anyone have any ideas what may be causing this and how to resolve it?
Try using a different Google account to setup the phone then sign in on the Web

Remove the Google account from the phone, reboot and log in again.
Thanks for the tips but still no joy.
Google refuse to help because I'm rooted!
So when you open play store, it doesn't start automatically?

I sometimes have the same problem. Toggling WiFi or data off then back on seems to do the trick usually.

Snapchat for 4.2?

Im in highschool, and A lot of my friends have snapchat so I have one too. I decided to try out AOSP 4.2 Evervolv and i am LOVING it. However it appears snap chat isn't available. Is it just me? Or did they not update it to 4.2?

Yes CM10 works fine, which is android 4.1, but my question was for android 4.2
That's what I implied. According to then it should work fit android 4.x is this the only app you can't load?

well it says "your device is incompatible" on the google play store, and i thought it couldnt be true, since 99% of the apps available for 4.1 should, theoretically, work for android 4.2... so i thought it just has to do with the ROM :/
Go to settings > apps > all tab > "Google Play Store" then clear press the " Clear Data" button.
Open the play store sign back in and tell me what happens. I could be wrong.

I had the exact same problem. I was on 4.1.2 stock no root. Even after I acknowledged the message that is crashed, a minute later it would pop up the same message. The phone was running kind of wonky afterwards too. Ended up uninstalling the update and it would open normally, although the older version.
So it's not just you.

This time I'm pretty sure I have the fix. It is definitely working for me. There's a problem with the album art in the mp3's ID3 tags. I'm pretty sure it's only the art from a few of them but good luck finding which ones. If you delete all the album art from all mp3's you should be able to run the app without problems. You'll have to delete all the music from your phone and re copy it. You might have to delete everything you've uploaded to Google then re upload that too, but I'm not sure about the last part. Hope this helps.
