[Q] Google Now Issues - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I reflashed the stock 5.0.1 image on my Nexus 6, and now I can't seem to get Google Now to work.
Pretty much this is what is happening:
1. I can't swipe left to see my cards
2. When I go into the settings, and try to select the "Show Cards" option, it is greyed out and says "network error. check your network connection and try again"
I have tried clearing the Google Search app cache, the system cache, as all as other things I came across. Nothing seems to be working.
There are a number of other threads for other devices with people reporting this same issue within the last day -- Does anyone know what is causing this issue, or if there is a working fix?
Thanks ~

For anyone having this issue, I came across this from another thread:

Happy to hear!

Same thing happened to me today when I flashed a new ROM. The fix worked like a charm though. Thanks, friend!

No problem, I'm glad I could pass along the information.
The real credit goes to those on Google+ from the Moto X community; they are the ones who provided the solution. Credit should also go to the kind user who shared this information with
Happy flashing!

Beautiful Widgets Won't Download.

Alright. Let me lead off by saying I searched google and this forum and I couldn't find the answer to my problem. I have found the "answer" to my problem that has worked for other people but not for me. So let me explain my problem and the solutions I tried. Any help would be appreciated.
I bought Beautiful Widgets from the market place. When i go to download it, it says "download unsuccessful". Let me make clear that i'm not rooted (or ever want to be) and I'm running 2.1-update1.
Solutions that I've tried..
1. settings > apps > manage apps > I cleared data in the "Download Manager" and cleared cache in the "Market" section.
Basically i took this advice, http://androidforums.com/samsung-moment/38687-problem-beautiful-widgets.html, it worked for that dude, Didn't work for me.
2. I've restarted the phone a few times and that didn't work.
3. I refunded my money, and bought the app again, didn't work that time either.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Edit: I gave this a new title because paid apps do download, just not beautiful widgets.
Can you install any app at all or does this affect all apps?

thanks for the reply
this only happens to paid apps. After all of this happened, I successfully downloaded beautiful silent widgets (or w/e) in the market and it was free.

I tried both.. also i set up a google voice account (like that one post suggested) .. i signed in and out of it and back in.. and still that app didn't download.
extremely frusterating
update: ok i bought doodle jump lol.. and that worked.. so i guess it must be something wrong with beautiful widgets?

Do they take apps down when they update them? Just curious, after you answer that i'll give an update after I find out what the problem is.
A dude on #android on Efnet IRC has the same problem.
He tried to buy it, said it went successful, then it was authorizing purchase for a long time.
Then got stuck, then Google issued him a refund because of some server error.
Now, when he goes to his downloads, it says Beautiful Widgets still says "purchased".
The BW author is on twitter all the time. I talk to him time to time. I think it was yesterday he mentioned that there are problems with his server and discussing with the powers that be to get a new one. If you have a twitter account, you may try him there if you havent sent him an email already.
hum - having exactly the same problem.. says purchased, click install, says download unsuccessful.. Followed the cache clear and made no difference..

bumping this:
I have emailed dev - but no reply..
Anyone have any thoughts?
Sorry I don't have an answer for you, but Beautiful Widgets caused problems for me anyway. Constant freezes and crashes. Overall slowdown of everything. I'm back to normal after uninstalling.

Nexus 6 on Verizon and MMS

Hi there...
I received my Nexus 6 yesterday, cut down my micro sim and BOOM good to go! I have had no problems at all until today. My wife tried to send me a couple of pictures today and they continue to fail when downloading. Anyone else having trouble receiving MMS on Verizon?

Make sure your APN settings are correct. I also recommend using Textra over hangouts or anything else out there

Thank you! I actually found the exact same page earlier and went through the directions. The problem is when I go into "Cellular Networks" (they call it Mobile Networks) I do not have Access Point Names as an option. I only have Data Roaming, Preferred network type and System Select.
I appreciate your help!

Google Now cards?

I'm a little stumped on this. Been using Now Launcher for a while on all my devices.
Just got a Moto X 2014, and the Now Launcher is installed, but 2 things:
1. I can't swipe left to see my cards
2. when I go into the settings, and try to select the "Show Cards" option, it is greyed out and says "network error. check your network connection and try again"
Network is fine & I get the same thing on wifi or cellular.
I just finished installing all my apps... really don't want to wipe the device already.
Clearing cache & all data on "Google App"
Installed a 2nd launcher...then "cleared default" to make sure it was actually running the Now luancher
Very odd.... Any help would be much appreciated.
Resolution
Apps > google settings ? search & now > now cards > delete card preferences
I'm having the exact same issue on a Moto X 2014 that I received today. I tried factory resetting, removing and re-adding google account, replacing google app and google play services with the factory versions but still the same.
I've tried everything I can think of now. Still no luck. I have no idea if its a problem with the Moto X or if its the Google app or what. Does anyone have any idea what I can do to fix this?
moto x 2014
Motorola doesn't have an answer for this yet (hours on phone and chat today) wiped data, factory reset, no luck. Mine worked out of the box, but just stopped this morning. All I can say is don't bother with the factory reset. Problem seems to lie with Google? But I don't know anything. Frustrating.
i am seeing this also, but I'm using a nexus 9 i am thinking its only affecting new device enrollments as Google Now still functions on my Nexus 6.
K, so, (first timer), what's our next move? Who do we contact at this point? Also, isn't it kind of strange that everything was working properly for a day before Google Now just seized? Why would everything work fine at first? It randomly cut out and at first was just giving me the pop up error when I attempted to activate the cards/NOW, but it wasn't until after the factory reset that the entire Show Cards option greyed itself out. Very distinct stages. And peculiar that it was functioning first.
Thoughts?
Facing the same issue since today morning. I think we should open a thread regarding the same on motorola device forum.

Open in split screen view no longer works

Hi guys, I need your help.
I debloat my galaxy s10 following some guides here on xda however now no longer works the multiwindow function between applications, in fact I can no longer run two apps along with the split screen.
When I click on "Open in split screen view" nothing happens, while the "Open in popup view" works perfectly
Does anyone know why? Maybe I deleted something necessary?
Thank you!

I believe the only solution is to reset the phone and reinstall everything unfortunately...

Question Android 12 Beta - Carrier Device Manager requests are processing

I'm using the Android 12 Beta 2 on a T-Mobile Samsung 21 Ultra and I keep getting the Carrier Device Manager requests are processing message constantly. In addition, I tried to use the eSIM feature and lost signal 2 mins after setting up. Had to go get a physical SIM to get service. I have reset the phone to factory settings and the error is still there. suggestions?
Same here.
It is already reported on the Samsung Members Android 12 beta forum. Apparently this is something T-Mobile needs to fix.
Ok, I have a theory, but I'd need someone on Android 10 or beta 1 to verify for me. If you're not on beta 2, could you check if Carrier Hub notifications are off by default? I think they accidentally just left it default on in this build.

If you have the members app and were officially signed up for the beta, you will see the posts under questions.
I looked.. I couldn't find it.
I have the same issue with carrier hub on TMobile. I .also getting lots of apps that being reported as failing or something that Samsung asks if they can freeze them.. the samsung watch plugin is the one most often being reported but others are doing the same.
