Just thought I would start a nice section for people who come across any nice interesting questions or commands to ask Google Now/Voice.
I tried:
"What's the Meaning of Life."
"Play <Insert Artist Here>"
Any of you guys find any other nice commands to use?
Buy (free) the Nexus 7 manual off the Google Play Books store.
Page 35 and up tells you the commands it uses for the cool card results and other voice actions/searches.

You can find several starting at page 36 of the free Nexus 7 handbook. There are a lot of them

Any suggestion for someone outside us who has no access to the play books section?

Can you see that?
Does Google now work outside us? Mine only does Google searches, no app or cards basically. Even asking the weather does a Google search instead of weather card
What am I doing wrong?

Same here. How do you enable this outside the us? It's pretty awesome at understanding my English, and but all it does is search when I ask it something.
I tried a bunch of cool stuff last night that gave the nice, card-based, spoken answers. I wish I could remember more of them, but a few were:
How tall is Yao Ming?
What is the capital of Thailand?
What is 2,346 times 547?
Other cool actions:
Remind me to check the oven in 20 minutes.
Listen to Coldplay...(which launched Rhapsody and started playing Coldplay songs)
To the people having the same problem as me (does web search not not cards or apps) set the phone language to English (US) (go to settings, language & input, language) and it will bring Google Now back to life

If it still doesn't work, then turn Google now off and on.
I can't access Google play books, can anyone upload the pages for voice commands? Thanks.

Obviously play book store doesnt support all countries in the world as most of other google services.
Can anyone just upload it here for all us international users? Also, where can I find Market Enabler?

I just tried "What does the weather look like right now"
Pretty cool.
I went to a locksmith the other day, and I was looking again for the name just now and found the address, I type it in on the website google maps.
I just looked at my phone now and it automatically showed traffic/navigation info on the Google Now screen! awesome!
Say "I'm Hungry"
Try These:
"When do the Mariner's play next?"
"Who do the Mariner's Play Next?"
"Did the Mariner's win their last game?"
"How are the Seattle mariner's doing?"
"Remind me to turn off the water in three minutes"

I've been trying to see NBA results but maybe they haven't set it for that yet. Or maybe it's because it's the off season.
These will work:
Convert 74 fahrenheit to celcius
Convert 1 dollar to euro

Hi guys
I'm going to China next week for 2 weeks, I wanna buy the SGNII dual sim, somebody can tell me If this phone work fine in all places in the world?
I live in Italy.
Is it a big deal for you?
I have a SGSIII with a dual sim card and i love use only one phone with my personal number and my business number

This shows the primary networks (sim 1)
& secondary networks (sim 2)
Dual sim is important feature for me also.
It's quad band on both radios, so it will work fine in Italy.
It costs around $915. Not a good price.
Thnaks guys
is there any section here dedicated about this phone, for custom rom and other mods?
I think that with the dual sim feature I can't flash the custom rom with omega and more, right?

No, you can't flash existing custom roms. Whether there will be dev support for this phone is what I can't tell. since its only to be sold in the chinese market, I doubt if it will receive as much community support as the international counterpart
Android question for China GNII
I'm also in the market to buy a dual SIM phone and am quite keen to buy the N7102. I heard however China Android phones have limitations to access Google services like Gmail, Google maps etc. I also heard there is no way to access the Google Play store to download apps. Can anyone verify this? I don't live in China so these limitations will keep me from buying this model. Thanks everyone.
Mochiware, your gonna use the phone outside China? No problem downloading those apps & using western internet access.
Yes, i want this phone also, I'm happy to have dual sim & DC HSPA+ & forget LTE for now
$890 is alot of money & its going to be cheaper than that for me to buy it, 3rd December release date onwards should see it reduce a bit hopefully.

Pat, can you provide more details about access Google Play, signing into Google accounts etc? I heard from a friend living in China that there are restrictions that prevent Google access. Do you mean outside of China these restrictions don't apply over wifi and/or 3G? I can live without LTE so long as I can use dual-SIM so both my work and personal numbers can be on the same device. I carry 2 mobiles now and that can be annoying sometimes. Thanks in advance.
I've been using dual sim adaptors for many years & can't imagine only having one sim but i would like to have calls & SMS coming in from both numbers as well.
Yes your Sims wont be Chinese will they so your network will give you the same access you get on any other 2g/3g phone you currently use.
If you think about it, the Chinese restrictions are going to be applied through the network/carrier otherwise nothing would stop them buying non Chinese handsets to avoid the blocks, it would be to easy.
Any apps missing on the software you can download. "Play store" is a downloadable app ...

I just got an n7102 tonight, and gonna root it tomorrow to get my google service back: p
BTW , you could not just install google play, you will get fc. You need to install googleserviceframework.apk as well.
Ok, thanks for correcting me, can i ask about where you bought & price?
i understood the 7102 to be available for delivery only from 3rd Dec.
Thanks guys let me know the questions I'm going to china next week I can ask to my friend and I will go in a store for test the phone
Thanks buddy let me know about root and many other info about the phone that u got it
Inviato dal mio GT-I9300 con Tapatalk 2
U should be able to flash the GAPPS to get all google services back from http://goo.im/gapps, once it's rooted and custom recovery installed. The 3rd Dec delivery is for some online retailers only, from what I heard its already available for sale domestically in China.
Hi there,

Isnt it the normal samsung UI?
I need german language, google play, gmail and maps.

It won't have the standard google apps out of box. The software is a modified version of android with pretty much all google service removed. There s no way using gmail google play maps or YouTube apps without root.
I can't verify this but I don't think it comes with German language UI either.
I just rooted my N7102, and reinstall back from my GSG3 backups. then removed all the default apps.
All work fine! Google account, google play, google map....etc.
thanks a lot for your prompt reply!
Will this beast then launch in Hongkong with full functions out of the box?
Got my Tab 7.7 there which works perfectly without flashing etc..
Thanks!

Hi buddy did you root the phone with odin and cf-root? did you install the cwm?

thanks
I will buy the phone in shanghai if somebody want receive info in real time install whatsapp and send me the phone number by PM, I will be in China from 5 dec to 14 dec.
Ivan
yes, I use the normal N7100 odin and cd-root to root N7102. It works fine! I didn't re-install CWM but recover from my backups.
and CWM shows that N7102 is not supported! So I uninstalled it.

It's not clear that will happen.
There s no indication this model will be released outside mainland China.
OK, total n00b here to the forums.
I have a bit of a weird and stupid question, how can I buy tablet apps with the Samsung Galaxy W?
I did do a forum search but couldn't find a topic that would help in my case.
Here's my dilemma, I have a HP Touchpad running CM9 and every now and then want to buy an app for it, but I can't use Google wallet since I don't have a credit card nor will Google accept my debit card, adding to that Google doesn't seem to want to bring their gift cards over to Germany.
So far I got around it due to my phone provider allowing payment for apps and content over my bill, which works for apps that are also available in the phone market.
However, I now want to buy Sketchbook Pro for Tablets, which won't show up on my phone's Play store, so I can't buy it.
So is there an easyish solution?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.
try market helper , maybe it will work on ur phone so google read it as a tablet (not so sure about it) , search it over the internet and download it and tell me if it works

I want to retract this as being BS, I tried it again and it works!
What I did wrong was visiting the store via the app, I tried it through the browser and bang it worked.
Downloading it now
Thank you so much.
Hello, I always liked creating widgets and I see people posting links from the play store with their own zooper templates. So why wouldn't I? But is it worth, paying for developer account, will it pay off if I achieve like 1 thousand downloads? Second question is what iconsetes can I use because I'm not making my own iconsets?
hey all
please i need a working free vpn to make a phone call via social application
any help ?!!
Use the free one built into the wifi app?
wireguard
Amazing that someone hasn't heard of Google Play where there is an untold number of free VPN's. I'll even bet that a quick Google will find a few. Either is going to be faster than posting on a forum and having to wait for aomeone to answer your plea. But then, some people just have to be led.
Makes me wonder how people who post this sort of moronic question have managed to sign up for the forum in the first place, or indeed found it at all. Or are we being trolled?

Thank you, and it's still pathetic that someone doesn't know how to search. And BTW, learn how to post questions that fully explain your problem. A quick search found this
https://www.guidingtech.com/58822/free-vpn-android-apps-bypass-country/
https://www.hongkiat.com/blog/free-android-vpn-apps/
I have to say that we don't know the position of @amjadRR
So his question is legit.
If you have never been to a country like China for example you won't understand @Tel864
But in short: Google is blocked in China and that means also Google services don't work there. Therefore you can't just google or download something in the Playstore, since the playstore is also blocked. So it's not that easy to get a VPN if you're in China.
I've been there for a year. Luckily I knew that before I went there, so I downloaded some VPN's before.
You can't just assume that everyone is living in a developed country or assume anything at all...
Anyway, if you need a download link for a VPN app let me know @amjadRR.
Thank you for your reply
Yes i wish to have a free vpn working in countries like uae prohibit vpn

I downloaded all these vpn and not working and so.e of them work and after few days it stop work :crying:
@amjadRR the reason for these VPNs not working is very simple. They are in the store, so of course the government is gonna block them.
But as I said earlier in this forum, get wireguard.
This one might work and it is for free.
You just need to download the VPN profiles and open them with the wireguard app.

Nothing assumed and I have been there. What I assume is someone knowing how to post a question on forums so they can get the information they need. These forums are packed full of lazy people that would rather ask for something rather than search. BTW, there is a way to search in China and find those things. A free VPN is most likely not going to work. VYPRVPNI will make itself invisible and is what I used.
