so maybe im the only person who wants this but i´d REALLy like offline voice dictation on my phone.
there is an ics mod that lets you download the offline voice libraries but the you cant update to the newer versions through the playstore.
lenny_kano has explained what needs doing
For those on low end devices who don't get voice download options on JB ROMs, you need to patch out the filterPreference method in the smali for downloading language packs to always return 0. Use the latest apk as obviously none of the fixes for ICS are needed if you're running JB. Can't remember name of the smali file but grep is your friend I'm sure it has download language and pack in the name.
Edit: And yes, if you update apk from market you will need to do mod again of course. Also note none of this talk of latest apk has anything to do with ICS, so dont ask about it, i was just referring to JB users using the market version of google now.

I dont know how to do this, is anybody interested in the challenge?
Hi, I have one question about Google and Google+. How to remove the files in our custom rom before flashing the rom? Ya, we can delete it using root explorer but I love to know which apk/files contain the twos apks. Thank's.
Google+ isn't necessarily an apk in the gapps package so google+ won't be there in the custom ROMs and I'm not sure if Google Now is a thing that can be removed as it is an exclusive feature of Android 4.1+ . Not sure though. :|

afair Google Now gets active only after you log in to your Google account from Google Search, logging get out brings the Search back

He wants to disable google search, i don't see any way to do that except not flashing gapps at all which isn't desirable. I'd be glad if you can help him disable google search if possible.
If it is a TW ROM then just pull the apk's out of system/preload...

I guess it all depends on the ROM - I have two different devices, on one the Search is a system app (system/app/Velvet.apk), on other it was installed via Play market (data/app/com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox.apk).
Generally if the apk resides in zip file, it can be removed before flashing (I usually clean ROMs from all apps I don't need on my PC using WinRar), the only problem could be finding name of the apk file to remove.
Yes you're right, the name of the app is where the problem resides as I did check the frameworks folder of the ROM. It's ROM specific isn't it, and tampering with an app like google search can surely cause some unforeseen errors too. I don't see any reason why google search has become such an undesirable app for the poster!
Not sure how it works for stock-based ROMs, on my N7000 I have Slimbean, which comes without Search - it can be installed from the Market separately if someone needs it

Slimbean has gapps of its own, customised for the ROM which are available on their site. The gapps on goo.im which are prescribed by some other ROMs come with the feature of google-search.

in this case it should be enough to remove "QuickSearchBox.apk" from the zip file before flashing
This removes Google search altogether or just the search box on the home screens which cannot be gotten away from the settings options in certain ROMs?

Not sure, the search box may be a separate widget, you could check with Root App Delete (enables/disables system apps)

I had google now and google plus and google maps deleted from system and installed as a normal app. Hibernated with greenify. App stays closed unless i start it myself.
Hope this way helps. So far i have no problem starting, using and hibernating these 3 apps.

Thank you for all informations. It is PlusOne.apk for the Google+ and Messenger+ too. I left the Google Search for future need. Thank's a lot. :good::good::good:
Like the title says, I'm getting an FC in settings when I select the music effects under sounds.
Any idea as to what I could do to fix that?? I am not sure if there is a way to fix permissions or not since we don't have a recovery.
Did you freeze it in titanium backup?
There is a fix permissions option in ROM toolbox lite and safestrap has fix permissions as well.
If you have TWRP recovery, there's a fix permissions in the advanced menu. Like shane1 said, I'd try that first.
I'm not seeing the option to fix permissions in ROM toolbox. Where is it??
Also I did't freeze it in TB, but I do have other things frozen. Is there something specific that I should look for.

You started another thread , its simple. You have viper android installed. You need to remove viper android completely.install this but you need to remove or rename the existing play music app. This zip flashes music fx with 10 presets and you may also customize the equalizer also. After you flash it go to phone setting and find sounds, select music fx as your equalizer and bam

I appreciate the help, but I can't download that zip. Its saying I don't have access.
And for the record my two threads are on different topics. One was to address my setting fc'ing and the other was to address my music randomly stopping.
Those are two different issues in my mind.
I appreciate the help, but no need to stir things up!!!

Emulation || Running Lollipop 5.0 ROM on a Jellybean 4.2.2 device
Gentlemen,
I am a Gionee Elife E7 user. It runs on Jellybean 4.2.2. I wish to run this Lollipop 5.0 ROM on my E7.
But I dont want to flash it. Instead, I want to emulate it on my device. Like the same way how many people have run Windows XP on their Android device without actually disturbing the ROM installed on the device. I want to run this ROM on my Jellybean device. I guess this is known as Emulation.
Kindly provide help on this and the procedures required to do the same.

This is not possible, and no one has been able to "emulate" Windows XP on Android. Windows is closed-source and Windows XP does not work on ARM, only on x64/x86 architectures. And yes I know you're talking about emulation, but what you're saying is unrealistic of doing a virtual machine on your phone to a newer version of Android.
Google Now anytime
Is there a way to enable this on this rom? This is a nice feature and these options are grayed out under the google now settings.
Anyone else on sprint only have 1x after flashing this or is it just me
Voice in Google Now / Battery Life
Hey,
Does the Google Now Voice activation work with the screen off in this ROM? and what kind of battery life are you all getting on it?
Is there a way to flash this without having Google music thinking my phone is a new device? Thanks in advance.

I don't think so
I think there is a way to back up and restore the android device Id in titanium but I'm not sure of the procedure. I can find it on line but I was hoping some one who has successfully done it can attest to it working.
If you have titanium set to backup its data to the SD card the first time you launch it after flashing it will give you a pop up that says that the id has changed and asks if you want to change it back. Hit yes and the phone will reboot and it'll have the old id. Alternatively I think you can manage id's in titaniums settings as well
Yup I was just playing with that. But are we sure that will keep Google music from tagging the phone as a new device? Thanks again.
Can anyone confirm that restoring the android id stops Google music from recognizing the rom/phone as a new device? I hear this proposed as a solution but I've never heard that it actually works.
Loose call sound when i turn off touch sounds in settings. Comes right back up when i turn touch sounds back on. Not able to hear people I'm calling.

Fixed, thanks InstigatorX! Edited build.prop and the HDR+ option comes back to the stock camera app. Taking photos with it works fine, no FC.

I'm not sure if this is a permanent fix or not. But after I install everything I deleted velvet out of the priv-app folder rebooted my phone. Then download Google search from the play store and moved it from data to system(priv-app) and rebooted again. I know have ok Google on lock screen and all. Also aside note if you try to leave search just installed on data side it will not allow you to do any thing besides ok Google in the search app. You have to move to system to get full function.

I tried this and can't seem to re-install it from the play store. I get a -505 error during install. Tried clearing play store cache and clearing cache from recovery. Any ideas?
I wanted to if anyone having issues with V4A and aux bug one ROMs if you can chime in I would greatly appreciate it. I think I Found a solution to the this and whats causing this issues . I have it working perfectly on AOSIP ROM but it wouldn't be possible if the Dev didn't build it a certain way for me to find it so much thanks to him.
Let me know if you flashed a zip from the theme and apps thread.
this is what I need
ROM used
Manual install or zip install
and if the Rom already had preinstalled EQ
You'll need to remove pre-installed eq.. See our existing viper thread in themes and apps.
