So, from the lock screen a quick swipe up will launch Google Now. Anyone check it out yet?
I've been a pretty heavy Google products user for years, so there's a lot of info in there for me. I added my home and my work address, so it already shows me quite a bit of info when I start up.
1. Start it up and it's showing me today's weather - perfect, thank you =)
2. Showing me directions to work. Working from home, but my Gcal does say I should be in the office - thanks for that =)
3. Showing me something about a hospital nearby. Ok, not sure why but you're right, I haven't had a checkup in a while so I might be due.
4. Showing me a nearby restaurant, but as it's 2:30am - it's closed. Google Places knows what time they open, so hopefully they'll be smarter about stuff like that in the future.
How about your thoughts?

I like it. Pretty accurate and going to be a great selling point to battle siri at verizon when customers brag about siri.. (if the vzw EVER gets a ota for JB that is..) At least i can demo it on my phone until the vzw gets it.
Yea mine shows me nothing
Yes, I really like Google Now, it's great. But since one hour ago, mine doesn't update anymore, it only shows "no connection". Maybe Google switched it off?
---------- Post added at 11:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:22 AM ----------
I just found out that I can't even deactivate the cards in the app beause of a network error... But everything else including normal search works.
Really looks like Google switched it off...
Weird... working perfectly for me. Updating in real time and everything, all commands work too...
If you swipe up from the soft keys you can launch now. Same from the lock screen.
Launching is no problem, and some hours ago it worked perfectly. But now it can't connect to Google servers anymore... No matter if I use WiFi or 3G.
Maybe I'll try to wipe cache and dalvik-cache, it probably could help.
---------- Post added at 11:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:33 AM ----------
OK, that helped. First I just deleted the app-data, but it still didn't work. Then I wiped cache and dalvik cache within CWM-Recovery and now I could set Google Now up again.
For some reason Now isn't showing me anything else than the next calendar event. Not even weather. Is the whole service just in the USA? It's weird because if I search for "weather in my city" it shows it correctly as a card in search so why won't it show it automatically eventhough it's enabled?

Neither mine or my wifes works very well. Always seems to be about a town behind or can't find anything local. Both are stock rooted. Nothing fancy.
I thre in a 3rd party check in that does considerably better, but still doesn't always figure out where we are.
Thoughts? A search and Google search yields nothing.
Its probably finding your location either by towers or switchboards.
make sure your gps is on and do it from outside the location. even great gps units get whacky locations when you use them indoors
If it's not GPS and it's by cell towers, you may want to try the fix here:

I'll never understand why people "check in" on Facebook.
Check in and 4square are sofa king stoopid. It's like saying, "hey! I'm not home. Go break into my house. Isn't it cool that you all know where I am at all times on FB?" Screw that noise, yo.
At all times? Are you checking in all day long? It's a useful tool if you're meeting up with people somewhere, especially for bar-hopping, and you can restrict who sees your checkins, so I don't see any issues with home security.
Mine always thought I was at work no matter where I went. I installed GPS status and reset the aGPS data. Then I had the app download the aGPS data. Since then it has been working great.
Worked perfect for me inside a club.

No. I don't check in at all. Some of my goofball friends use those apps and check in every damn place they go. It's annoying. As if everyone wants to know that they are at Starbucks, DSW, or every time they go to Lifetime Fitness. I met a buddy for breakfast this morning and he tagged me with his stoopid check in. It was super ghey-ish. I guess I just don't get it or that twitter crap.
If I want people to meet me someplace, I'll call, text or email them. I don't have to tell everybody on FB where I am, as if I'm fishing for someone random fool to hang out with or bragging about my exploits 24/7.
I probably sound like a pompous ass or a Debbie downer. My bad.
Glad this thread was here for you to vent your dislike of a feature.. Hope you feel better.
Anyway, glad I am not alone in seeing a huge lag in the GPS. If I am tagging the location of a picture, I'll be damned, but I get the same thing - last known location was the previous town or yep.. Work.
Looks like unless I keep GPS alive at all times, it never locks or gives me the correct ballpark to even search for my location by name.
Ok. So we're "ghey" and "stoopid" because we have different likes. Got it.
Thankfully, the world isn't entirely like you.
Yer a great help...

You missed my closing disclaimer. My apologies for hijacking the thread. Carry on.
Sorry for the shameless self promotion. But my Security app Root Defense has been thoroughly tested on the Nexus 7 and unlike any other security app out there, it will allow you to continue to track your phone even if it gets wiped or a hard-reset by a thief.
It's almost impossible to lose your phone and it's completely free.
It requires that your phone be rooted (as most peoples are on XDA)
Please try it out and rate and comment on Google Play if you like it.

No, but thanks for the suggestion. It currently caches data offline and as soon as a WiFi or cellular connection is made, the application uploads the data.
This is fantastic
Would it be possible to log which apps are used on the device?

looks like a good product. Will give it a try. Contrary to what you have said, other apps CAN survive a system reset or wipe of the phone. you can also embed Cerberus in the rom so that it survives a system reset and you can also hide it and make it look like a system app in the tasks list.
What i like about this product though is how it can track calls, and sms etc. Though this does obviously raise some privacy concerns with all this info being stored on a third party server.

Jeepfreak, It embeds itself in the system so that it is treated as if it is a program that came with the phone or tablet. In effect, it injects itself into the rom of the phone (hence the need do root to install). this way out will still be they if you reset the phone.it will not survive the rom being replaced though i assume, which is the same limitation on other apps of this type.

No it doesn't, Cerberus tries to save money by not having a database store your information. This is one of the major differences.
What this means to the end user is the following:
If your battery is dead or the phone is off, you cannot see where your phone was a little while ago or see any of your logs. The map will show the location of the last time you manually told it to check and logs will only pull if the device is on.
Root Defense Keeps a copy online and automatically updates background info. This means you'll be able to see where it was right before the battery died or was turned off. Also, all the logs would still be available to look at.
Another major difference is that Cerberus only sends a copy of your SMS or calls logs where Root Defense records them in real time. This is pretty major because if I have Cerberus on my kids phone and they call or text someone they shouldn't, they just have to delete the message of call log and Cerberus would never know. With Root Defense logs can't be wiped.
This is useless, unless your N7 is taken back to a wifi hotspot you have previously allowed it's not going to report back.
Nice idea but only useful for phones
If I stole a N7 the first thing I would do is wipe the rom.
This will only catch a complete idiot and you would be one too for letting your N7 out of your sight.
No security software of this type will be any good unless CWM finally gets password locking.
Shame on the OP for spamming his app when he's already got a dedicated thread for it.

That is pretty harsh, the OP can post anywhere it is appropriate.. and this is one of those places. Also, you overestimate the intelligence of criminals- half of the people on XDA can't flash a rom, why would a random criminal know how? How to go into settings and perform a full wipe maybe.. but that would leave the software on the device.
Eventually they will connect to internet.
Cerberus and avast (and other apps I am sure) can also survive wipe / hard reset. As long as the rom is not flashed, the app stays installed. Cerberus stores very little data which is why it has a once off cost only.
Different pricing models provide different services. At their core, all of these types of apps do pretty much the same thing, but let's try and stick to the facts when saying which can and which can't do things.

So I left the office to walk to the train station, with my phone in my pocket. The phone is completely stock, unrooted, with a pin lock screen, per corporate IT standards.
I pull out my phone at the train station, and notice it is rebooting. Weird, I think, but it's happened before so I didn't think much of it. But when it finishes booting up, I notice that the lock screen is different with no pin pad. I unlock, and see that the phone has done a hard reset, and wiped everything. I have now lost a bunch of important text messages and call logs, as well as all my settings.
I am beyond livid right now, and honestly feel like ripping someone at Samsung and/or Sprint's head off.
That being said, I am afraid to touch anything, in case there is a way to undo this. I tried doing some searching, but couldn't come up with anyone with the same issue on this phone.
Can anyone speak to why this happened and if I'm totally screwed?

Well I bought this phone directly from a Sprint store, so can't imagine that would be it... I thought maybe for some reason the Good app (what I use for work) could have been used to initiate a remote wipe, but there's no good reason that tech would have done that without consulting me.

Check with your IT folks and make you're an isolated case. If you are, then they, or Sprint need to provide an answer.
We set those permissions on personal devices (not company owned) , and if the user agrees to access company resources, and if you haven't subscribed or installed a third party app for your own protection, then it narrows it down.
There are documented restarts on the Sprint active issues page but not seeing any hard resets on its own..

I just gave them a ring, and they said that absent me reporting the phone stolen/missing, or termination of employment, they would never initiate a remote wipe without first consulting me. God help the Sprint person that has to deal with me in 5 minutes.

I'm not trying to start an argument but I just like to know exactly what the point of Google Now is.
I've had my GNex for around 4 weeks now and despite me setting up Now correctly (defining home, work etc), it never shows me anything useful. Occasionally it shows me a route to work and a route home but they are totally the worst route that I could take. It never seems to learn any route and if I dare to look at Location History in Google maps, all I see are a bunch of crazy lines that in no way represent where I've actually travelled! It's like someone strapped my Nexus on a bird's back and started shooting at it!
For example, I took a day off yesterday and stayed at home, but late in the day I took my daughter to the shops 3 miles away. Location History says that I travelled 40miles with a bunch of random lines all over the map!
The weather has only ever popped up once in the last few weeks and vanished a couple of minutes later.
It never shows anything of any interest anywhere I go (ok, this may be where I live )
Is this a UK thing or is Google Now genuinely useless and a work-in-progress?

Seems like you might have your GPS off. That kind of erratic behavior as far as location goes make me think it's only going by cell towers/WiFi hotspots, which is not entirely accurate.
I will admit though, it's not as informational as I thought it would be, but it will improve with time. I do have a schedule on my phone for work, and every single instance is named "Work". Because of this, it calculates how long of a commute I should expect, and let's me know what time I need to leave by.
It also displays my favorite NFL team's next game about 2 days in advanced, and displays the score for the rest of the day the day of the game.
It also always displays restaurants near me, but I've never really used that feature.
95% agree. I'm in UK too and cannot see the value yet.
The weather does pop up pretty often, say twice a day?
The travel reports are ok. When my alarm goes off for work Now shows my route and time which is helpful for me, but could live without.
I searched for a restaurant recently and Now popped up with a travel card, directions and time. That was cool.
But the question is; where is Google going with Now? Can we expect more great development in the near future?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
i think outside us google now is crap. hope they introduce more services with android 4.2.
Mine is pretty useful, even if just for the traffic info between home and work. The weather info isn't as useful as I typically have weather on my homescreen as a widget. But I have Google Now display the local Baseball and Football team scores. I don't follow sports much but I do like the information.
Honestly I don't use mine as much either. I can't seem to make it talk anymore. Most results are just google results. Seems like when I had it setup from the original leaked JB rom, every response was spoken.
Granted I still use the search feature like I always have to find local restaurants and phone numbers, etc.

You sure your not using apple maps?
Maybe it is a regional/country-specific thing? I'm located in the US near Boston and it works pretty well for me.
I use it often because it'll show me my commute to work when I'm home, my commute to home a few hours before I leave work, movies on Fridays/Saturdays/Sundays, places I've searched for and how long it'll take to get there (restaurants, shops, etc.), weather warnings for my area, flight information (I don't fly often but experienced this recently, very cool), restaurant recommendations, score updates for the teams I follow, and my next calendar event and how long it'll take to get there if there's an address attached. Public transit directions (subway, bus) will also show up when I'm walking around Boston.
I noticed over the last month or so that Google Now became "better" than it was before. I'm not sure if it's because I've been checking into places I eat at or visit but now it's giving me 4-6 recommendations on average. Maybe try checking into more places? I only share my checkins with close family on Latitude if you're not comfortable with doing that.
If you want to get a feel for a really in-your-face Google Now experience, I recently went on a trip to New York City, Las Vegas, and Los Angeles and my Google Now exploded. I attached some screenshots to show you!
Google Now doesn't even recognize what I'm saying, its useless for me
Google Now always recognizes my voice and has relevant information for weather and traffic for me, it only took about a month to learn my travel habits. The only thing I am unhappy with GN is it doesn't know SEC scores/games/teams, Siri does.
Now works for me in the UK, but only when it feels like it. Cards randomly disappear and the GPS drain, for me, is not a decent tradeoff. I do use it for routing to recently searched addresses so that all well and good, nut constantly polling for weather and other travel alerts is a no go for me. It needs IMO to be opened up to devs so BBC and sky news can be sent to it, then it would be worthwhile. Apart from that I use seperate widgets for everything.

Generally, I find Google Now to be fine, but when I look at location history, I see the same symptoms as you. It seems to me that at times, it thinks that it is at home while I'm out. The location history map online really shows what's happening.
I do disable WiFi when I'm not near a known hotspot that I use (Tasker, using Cell Near to enable and when WiFi connected to populate the list), and I'm wondering if that might be related. I'll try leaving WiFi on to see what happens.
Does anyone know how to tell where the location data is coming from? I'm thinking of rerolling my own with Tasker, based on Cell ID when not charging if this doesn't get fixed soon.

It never NEVER and I mean NEVER showed my commute to work card.
Even when I'm to work, it shows me the commute to home card. So it's always the commute to home card showing up and a couple of other places I added after being asked by Google Now if I wanted those places to be reported.

Do you work at the same time every day? The only workaround I can recommend is to add a work "event" to your calendar and then it will show you the time and traffic to that event.
Also, check your privacy settings and make sure you're sharing all of your information with google.
Isn't there a manual way to produce a commute to work card? I do have my work schedule in my calendar. For location should I say "work" or Tufts University" or do I need to input the actual address? I have set up "work" location in google maps but I do not have a "regular" schedule.
did you check that the "traffic" notification is checked "when you travel FROM home" as well as "When you travel TO home" ?
It looks like you have only the second check active.
(I'm sorry, but I don't know the exact english phrase, non english language here)
