Change your language to English US. Simple Google search would've sufficed honestly
Are you in android 4.2.2 or 4.1.2?
If you're on android 4.2.2 use a swipe to the high on the home button.
If you're on 4.1.2 double tap on home button
try this!

On my stock T-Mobile, holding the home button will bring up Google Now.
EDIT: Mine also has a widget for Google now, I keep that on my home page. However, I still have to first open the program by holding the menu key after a reboot. After that I can simply touch the widget.

Our nexus have search button which used to search within the running application, for eg, in music player if we press search button it used to search for songs in that player, but this feature is not available in 4.1. Wherever we are, pressing search button opens Google now! Does anyone know how to reassign that button to search within app only, and long pressing to open Google now??????

not everything requires a mod. just press the search and type your song/artist/album name. dont press go. let it filter and it will give you your results. if you press go, it will search the web and you have to select phone from the bottom ribbon.
make sure you have enabled google now --> settings--> phone search --> play music
somethings just need a bit of understanding
I think the best behavior is the original one, search in the app that is opened. I hate when I am in the browser and I click the search and google nows opens. The same happens in all apps like gmail app, I press to search an email and bye bye the apps goes away. I don't really care if galaxy nexus don't have this button. We do and so we should get some advantage of it.
Kind regards
Hi,
I just flashed the LANIGHT v4.2 DATADATA ROM from the Captivate Android development thread, and everything is working great, but I can't figure out how to work Google Now. I did a search on the thread and it said the search button is mapped to Google Now, but when I press the search button, nothing happens. No search or Google now or anything pops up.
I hope I'm posting this in the right section. If anybody can help me out that would be great. Thank you very much.
I'm using slimbean 2.4 and the button mapping has been changed to holding the menu button. Try that and see if that works.

Hey thanks for the reply, but it seems it still doesn't work. I'm not sure if the LANIGHT version uses that mapping. Is there supposed to be an app called Google Now if I go into the settings and apps menu? My ROM seems pretty basic, I don't even have any sounds to choose from.
Do you have Google Search installed? I don't think that it is included in the rom. If not head over to the play store and download it. Let me know if that helped?

Install google search from market
No, I don't have Google Search installed. I was wondering why there was no search bar in my Home screen. I hope this will work, I'll try it now, thanks for the advice!

Is there a way to turn off the Google search when you press a hardkey? I find my thumb hovering over the hard key and then it will just come up. Is there any way to turn it off?

Well i have turned Google Now off, so the only thing that comes up is the search box that would have been google now window. I am asking where i would go to do that, i have searched all over the place in the menus and settings and can't seem to see where to turn it off at.
Go to Settings, search for apps icon , then select all apps. Find google search from that list and stop service and delete it.

Extract and install apps, files to framework and libs, then fix permissions. Works perfect on Note 3.
