[Q] Location settings in Google Now - Sprint HTC One (M7)

When I go to google now, I have only one tile that says "Location service is off, please turn it on to continue using google now." and that I should turn it on in settings. In my location settings all the checkboxes are checked. The maps app works. What can I do?

Scroll down in Google now and click on the 3 dot icon in the bottom right and hit settings. Make sure Google now is turned on

This happened to me too... As far as I know there's no fix but maybe a hard reset might work. Mine was like that for about 2 weeks and the weather would say current location instead of where I was located. Then 1 day it magically fixed itself.

When the card comes up saying home or work, you should also be able to tap the little (i) and confirm if Google has its guess right.

Update the Google play store....it should have rolled out to you by now. The latest version fixed a couple of location issues

Here is another way of doing it, without installing an app.
Drag down the notification bar, long press "Power saver off," press App info, then uncheck "Show notifications." Then OK to accept.
It should be gone from the notification bar now.
This doesn't seem to work on the stock rooted rom. You can use the app info menu to force close power saver and the notification go away for a while, but it'll eventually come back.

Mine doesn't come back... did you disable system r/w protection? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2236849)
I did, it'll come back after a reboot is what I meant to say. Not a bad sacrifice for now.
This worked for me.

Honestly its hit or miss with being able to uncheck that box. I have yet to find a pattern. Like in the ATT HTC One forum. Some are able to uncheck that box. Some like me aren't. Not sure why that is at all.
For those who are not rooted yet, all you have to do is force stop the application and it will not show up again until you power cycle.

I am on AT&T and I can't disable notifications. I am on stock ROM and for now I do not want to root. Any new ideas how to disable that notification? It is making Jelly Bean Notification actions totally useless... (they don't show up)

The only way I know how to disable non rooted is long press on the power saver notification until app info pops up press it then force close it will go away until you reboot or battery saver is turned on

Just out of curiosity.. if you do the above and uncheck the box, does toggles come up first when you pull down the notification panel, or is it still the 'empty' notification panel that comes up and you have to click the corner to get to the toggles?

I'm not really sure what you referring to, I'm running 42one rom and my toggles stay unless I tap the notification bar when it's down then the toggles go away or tap to bring them back.

If you have more than one notification, swipe away the top one. The rest teleport to the top with no animation. That alone has me back on 4.1.2
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app
not sure if its related but ever since i updated all my contact photos in the text message app that were linked to my friends facebook pics are all now blank and i cant get them to come back and stay, i went into the facebook app and "sync with existing contacts" and i went into settings and synced facebook contacts in there also
I don't know ifthis is a bug, but what ifs the purpose of the day dream setting. My phone didn't fully charge last night, probably because the screen kept coming on. Other than that I don't really notice anything that is greatly different. I am however hoping that the no SIM card issues are fixed.

If you're in the Twitter beta, you can't get Twitter to show up in blinkfeed. Best way around it is uninstall all the updates, link your account in blinkfeed and then update to the beta again.

I asked in another thread, but it might get more answers here. On 4.3, I've had the stock music app reset the volume to all the way down/off twice. I'm using google Play music to see if I can get the same issue on that as well. I'm curious as to if anyone else has seen this particular issue.

That's not the ROM problem. That is your phone/sim issue. I believe most people have resolved it by taking out the sim, cleaning it, blowing out the contacts, and re-seating.
The firmware seems to cause a swap for those who did and did not have the purple camera issue. I didn't before, have it now. Boss had it before, doesn't now.

The option to toggle whether open wifi connections are available is not working it is permanently turned on even after factory reset. Also roaming guards cannot be toggled off and alot of apps force close after closing them but that one could be they are not updated for 4.3 yet.

Just like the guy above me said. Go to your messages than settings. Then top right corner there is a "more" tab. Click that then under the notification setting section click "message preview" to check the box. Then voila

If you touch the notification, it will show a box at the lower half of the screen. Swipe inside that box and it will open directly to the message.

GEL bug

I think I found a bug. Spamming the app drawer and home button one after the other quickly opens the widget page. Can someone else confirm this?
