Greetings! When using voice search and telling the phone to navigate somewhere the incredible verifies what I have said then Google maps navigation crashes. I have to reopen navigation wait for maps to crash then click the navigation icon again. I have already cleaned out my cache multiple times and another interesting thing is when I hold the home button and click the.navigation icon it restarts the navigation route. Any ideas, I'm using all updated software. Thanks for help ahead of time. I feel like the Google maps update must have had a bug in is so I have already uninstalled and reinstalled it as well as a factory reset on the phone as a whole.

I have discovered that the problem is linked to SVOX Classic. Sorry

Was the gps radio on before opening the app? Does the app work at all? Is the error only when closing?
Thanks for replying.. The GPS rádio is on. Gmaps apparently is working fine, showing my correct position. But when i click a place on the map and ask to navigate, it suddendly crashes.. I will factory reset the phone, lets see if it works

Is turn by turn navigation enabeled in your country? Don't thinks its active everywhere yet.. might be reason for crashing

I had this problem two nights ago when trying to search for a place via the navigation app (of which I'd then want gps navigation to). It kept crashing on me, so I opened the actual Maps apk, searched for the destination via Maps, then drove down into the location and asked for navigation. Worked fine then.
This morning I'm trying it again, and everything works fine on all fronts. This is in the U.S., stock 4.0.2 on VZN.

This is simply a tutorial on how to replace Samsung's crappy s-voice with the amazing Google Now voice search!
In order to follow this guide you must be rooted, if you are not and wish to do so, follow the guide here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739426 If you are already rooted, then continue with the guide!
Step 1: Installing Google Now:
1.)Download the Google now flashable zip here (download the one entitled mikey7 online/offline voice) XDA Google Now Download Thread
2.)Make sure they are on your internal SD card and reboot into recovery
3.)choose install zip file and navigate to wherever the file is (if you are unsure then there is a good chance that it is filed under downloads/mikey7_offline.zip)
4.)once you are done with this, turn your device back on and verify that the app "Google" is in your app drawer
5.)If so then continue with the tutorial, if not then retry and if that does not resolve the issue then post questions in this forum.
Step 2: Activating Google Now
1.)Make sure you have Google latitude installed and have set up your account for latitude before continuing just to be safe.
2.)Launch the Google Now app and go through the setup until you click the "Yes, I'm in." option and your cards appear
3.)Continue to the next and final step or, if you are happy with not being able to launch Now via double tapping the home button, stop here and have a nice day!
Step 3: Replacing S-Voice
1.)Go into S-voice settings and uncheck the option "Launch S-Voice"
2.)Download a free app from the market called "home2 shortcut" (or link here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eikatou0.appspot.home2shortcut ..)
3.)Set the double tap home option (Home> Home) to launch "Voice Search" from installed applications. (make sure it displays a blue microphone when you do this)
4.)Continue with the instructions for the app and close the app.
5.)Test it out, if it doesn't launch directly into the voice search after doing the double home then follow the next few steps, if it does then skip to step 8.
6.)Open the Google Now app (it will be listed as "Google" in your app drawer)
7.)Press menu>refresh.
8.)Reboot
9.)Enjoy having Google Now on your Ice cream sandwich Samsung Galaxy S3!

Great post! Thanks!
Thanks for this...is there a way to set this up so that a single press while in my launcher (Nova Launcher) returns to the default screen? Single presses in the launcher do not currently do anything.

You maybe can go into gestures settings in nova and set up the double tap for voice search in nova. However, you may have to triple press. This was actually my work around for a small time. You may have to buy the premium nova in order to use gestures though. Hope this works!

the manual search is working perfectlly on my tab 10.1 running 4.0.4.
but the voice function is not. the message of "shell has been granted in su perm" kept appering for tens of times. then the app get forced to close.
thanks for the great effort...

Everything went smooth, just "Step3/#6". I don't have Google Now icon in my app drawer, but I do have "Voice Search" icon.
Is it the same?

It will be labeled as "Google" if it isn't then try reflashing the package

Is it easy to revert back to S-Voice? Not saying i would but if you have to.
Edit: Never mind. Doing the guide in reverse order works.

Is anyone else no longer able to set timers or alarms using google Now?
For example if I say...
"Set a timer for 10 minutes"
"wake me up in a hour"
"Set a alarm for 10:30 am"
Google Now will search the internet for that phase. Before it would actually set a alarm in the clock application. The clock application also is no longer listed in the "searchable applications" list in google now.
I was missing ALL voice commands untill I reinstalled the Google Search application, but it only re-enabled most of them.
Is there a way I can get back the missing voice commands without doing a device reset?
It's working perfectly fine for me. Maybe try uninstalling and then re downloading it.

What are all of the applications tied to google now? Cause I already tried clearing the cache and reinstalling the "google search" application.
I dunno. I'm sure you can find that info online somewhere, but I was able to set an alarm, open calculator and play a song via Now. Are you sure you've got the correct version of gapps installed?

I believe so, all apps are up to date in the play store. I tried doing a factory reset and the problem persists. So it's either a kernel issue or it is something on Google's end. Is it possible for stuff to go wrong in the kernel on a non-rooted device?
I am on the stock at&t jelly bean rom. By the way.
Naw, nothing should really ever "break" on the stock image. I dunno what to tell ya unless it's something to do with the android version. Did the things you're asking about ever work?

I have the latest google search and google play services. Running cleanrom 3.5. Earlier in the week i tried the unlockgoogle method but no result. Tried the most recent idea of "ok google everywhere" and tried "okay google everywhere", same result, only option I get is within google search app. Have audio history turned on.
Did you change the voice to US English?
Mine wouldn't work with UK English, but did when changed to US.
Even got it working on my stock 4.4 Xperia Z.

I did a full wipe and reinstall of cleanrom, updated everything in google play before doing anything else, and now it appears. Will see if restore of apps makes it disappear again.
I have the option to enable it, but when I get to the setup screen where you're supposed to say "OK Google" 3x, nothing happens. Also, I've realized that "OK Google" doesn't even work within Google Now. It just doesn't register that I've said anything. But if I click the mic icon, I can use the voice search. It's just the hotword detection that doesn't work at all. I've got a VZW Note 3, rooted stock ROM, stock recovery.
Just wondering if anyone else with a Note 3 is having the same issue. If it's device related, I can stop trying until the next official update from VZW. Which will probably be just under 3 years from now

I just discovered that when I click on the arrow in the Google Maps search bar to do a directions search the application is FCing. Anyone else seeing this?
Nope. Works fine here.

No problem here. Try clearing the cache and data for the app.

Happened to me too and restarting fixed it like for you. I was using another app that uses GPS so I figured that was the problem (though I never had it happen with my note 2). Wierd.

I've never had this happen either but it's back and after a reboot still happening. I do a search for a location and start navigation with no problem but I can use the directions functionality. Hopefully Google will fix it soon.
Google just updated the app. No issues now
