Voice search is iffy, and I don't really like using the workaround, but Google Now does indeed work. Pulled up info about my town quite easily, although the back button is useless if you want to exit the app. There's also an issue where cards sometimes don't show up, but it doesn't happen much. Pretty nice, though. Hope they manage to get voice search fully functional.

I installed Google Now using MikeyXDA's v6 zip, and it works ok, except for speech. It gives the answer, but does not talk. Any ideas?

I currently use thishttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1747224 one, is this any better. Does the jelly bean voice search work here?

Voice works w/ wifi 3.1 update!!!!

Hey guys I don't know if this is already posted but I'm just letting everyone that doesn't know that it works like it's suppose to

It does work perfectly but it's odd that it's filtered out of the Market. You still have to side load it.

can someone post a 3.1 friendly apk here for us then ?
danka
where are you downloading the apk from??
I just downloaded it to my phone and grabbed it for my xoom.

so your saying google voice installs as long as we sideload it?
This doesn't surprise me, since the issue with Google Voice was the same issue as the Facebook Widget and that works too.
It seems Google relaxed the API a bit with regards to null intents
I just back it up to my drop box.. here's the link if you want to download it

so i thought i would be able to get msg's on my tablet and my phone but when i setup my sprint number with gvoice i stop getting msg's on my phone and only get them on gvoice on the tablet
you can also get apps directly on your xoom by downloading from amazon app store. there's a ton of apps that work fine but missing from the market. and you don't have to go through putting the app on your phone then moving to your xoom, and you will get updates.
Yeah, found this out last week. Unfortunately, push notifications are STILL not enabled (you still have to select a polling interval).

I figured 15mins was the best compromise.
One thing I did was change my Voice Notification E-mail from my default account to my GMail account, which means I at least get instantaneous notifications, but even still that's a hack.
FFS Google- you can't make this whole?!
Confirmed. It works perfectly. Thanks for the heads up.

Umm' stupid question I'm sure but here goes...
If I install the voice from your dropbox does it replace the Google voice on the xoom? As in no more video calls, or does this just add capability to use the calling features? I'm so confused..

I think you are thinking of Google Talk. Google Talk and Google Voice are different apps

Anyone else getting INSANE battery use from Voice? It's almost up there with the display.

Yes I am. Might be the polling interval but I uninstalled it until there is a fix or an official release

Problem With Google Now After Update

Hi everyone,
Have any of you had any problems with voice input in Google Now after the latest update to Google Search? I can see from the reviews on the Play Store that I'm not the only XZ owner with the issue, but I don't see anyone talking about it on here.
Rolling back to the version before makes it work again, I just can't see why it stops working in the update .
Nope that was the first thing I tried.

I have the same problem. Temporary fix is to turn off/close the app fully then relaunch it.
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium
I haven't found any fix that works, temporary or otherwise just stick with the old version.
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium
Same issue for me I think. Voice typing and voice search only work with older version.

Google Wallet not working

Dammit, my wallet is not working! Any info on this?
Sent from my HTCONE using xda premium
There's no support on Google's side for our Ones. Unless you're rooted and edit your build prop there's no way it'll work.
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app
what version are you using? wallet is fully functional for me without any mods.
if it helps, here's the version i'm using:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/5qdh0q5bbavjbc8/Wallet_1.6-R96-v16.apk
Mine wasn't working but I updated my PRL and Profile then rebooted a couple of times yesterday. It still didn't work until tried again today and it went through the whole setup and seems to work just fine. I am not rooted and full stock on Sprint.
I'm stock and now my wallet work without any modifications or tweaked app.
Nice! I got it working with thst version! Thanks
Sent from my HTCONE using xda premium
I wish that I was one of the lucky ones that could get it working on stock

This appears to work. Setup worked just fine but haven't tried purchasing with it yet.

I just installed and set it up. I'll try this out later tonight and post if it worked. Looks good so far!
I think Google added our devices to their supported list, as I am now able to run Google Wallet also. The only thing is that Google hasn't yet enabled us to download it from the market.

Weird, I can download it from the market but can't use it

wierd indeed. i dont see sprint htc one in this list
is the dropbox file safe? where did it come from? just dont want to download something that'll sell/use my financial info.
I can confirm that Google wallet does work, just used it twice at the mall because I forgot my wallet at home, I'm glad it worked I would off dumb if it didn't lol

I downloaded Google wallet from the dropbox link provided and everything sets up nicely but app states I have an unsupported phone due to root. Will this affect anything or is it bypassed? Won't be able to try and use the app until I get back into town. Thanks.
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app
Unsupported means they won't offer any technical help if you have issues. It will function just fine tho so go ahead and use it.
It's working for me with the APK from this thread. Just got the phone yesterday and I haven't rooted yet. Installing the APK was no problem and I was prompted to setup my wallet. Not sure I am going to stick with the ONE since I am left handed and the home button isn't so easy for me to reach.

Maps wake locks are back=(

Does anyone know what I can turn off on maps location settings so that Google Now will still tell me where I am and bring up the same cards (i.e. The weather in the address I'm in, how long it will take to get back home, places to check in, etc.)?
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
I am guessing you can use Greenify and hibernate Maps so that it will only work on command.
Greenify all the way.

Pretty much, yes. Also if you turn off everything under Location, you will not have to worry about that much anymore. There are ways to completely freeze or remove Google Now from your device, just use Google and you'll find many articles regarding this.

I don't want to remove Google Now. That's the whole point. I wanna lessen the Maps wake locks but still get the same Google Now functionality.

Yeah, I misunderstood at the time and I wanted to edit my post but I forgot. As I mentioned, use Greenify and Google Now should work properly.

Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4g custom ROM modding

Yo! So, I know this phone is kinda old, but I'm still rocking it. My question is based on the fact that I've tried pretty much every custom ROM and I'm currently using CM10 4.2 and I'm really not digging the contacts and messaging app that comes with it and most of the custom roms for jellybean.
So, I am wondering if it possible to replace the apk with an alternative from the play store?
Any help would rule. Thank you so much to the developers for making this phone so customizable and easy to change!

Try aoip it up to date all other roms are discontinued
There are several dialing and message apps in the play store. I think the contacts app I use is Rocket Contacts, or something like that. As for messaging apps, I will have to look at which I am using, but there are several, most of which are good, I would imagine.
