The day before I noticed I had a weather notification in my notification tray that looked amazing. I'm assuming it was stock since I have no weather apps or widgets installed but now the notification is gone. Does anyone know why or when it shows up or how to get it back?

This is apart of Google now.
Edit: In order for it to reappear you have to turn Google now off and then on. I believe since this is a alpha build everything is not worked out so Google now is not fully functional

It is presumably supposed to open up the weather app for you when weather changes or you move to a different location with different weather. I don't think you can make it a persistent notification.
further info on this issue
I had the same issue/question - this is the only thread I found in a day of searching. The stop-Google-Now-restart method didn't immediately work. Looking under Google Now settings in the weather settings there is a notifications toggle that was set to off. The other option is "low priority". Toggling Google Now off-on alone without this switched will not work.
turn off and on

Just got my new Nexus today
But sometimes I cannot pull down the notification bar when in lockscreen
I have to restart the phone to be able to pull down the notification bar again
Anyone has similar experience?
Any fix?
I didn't think it was possible on the lockscreen to begin with
Sent by me, for me and i love you
Yes its possible in ICS.
Mine is working fine. So far. Do you have any widget on notification such as widgetsoid perhaps? But it should working though

Didn't know this was even possible.
I do have Widgetsoid yes, does that stop it working? Because I am unable to pull down the notif' bar when locked.
Well you could try to remove it see if that works. If yes then probably just minor bug on widgetsoid. I know some of the widgets are still not working on ICS

I too, was unaware of this option. Works fine on my GN LTE.
I believe if you have one of the more secure unlock methods active (PIN, face, pattern) it won't work. Believe it needs to be on slide to work.

Yep, only works on slide.
Thanks.
It's working now.
So weird...
Can anyone access settings through the notification bar when locked?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
Only when you have no pin or pattern to unlock. So its not any less secure...
Anyone know of a good replacement for the lock screen on the GN? Say one which lets you launch messaging, phone etc from the actual lock screen?
Hello everybody.
I am new here and I'm sorry if this has been answered already but I could not find an answer. Anyway. I installed WidgetLocker on my Galaxy Nexus but when I uninstalled it later on it left my notifications bar inaccessible from my stock lock screen. It can't be pulled down without unlocking the phone! Is there a way to fix this? It's just awful...
Edit: It can be pulled down in the WidgetLocker lock screen but I don't want to use it.
Do you have password our pattern unlock activated?
The notification bar is only accessible with slide to unlock.

Just tried it, no luck. The problem persists. I think I'll give the factory reset a try.
!EDIT!: Tried it, didn't work out.
Maybe increasing security (activate pattern/password) and then setting it back to slide unlock can fix it?

Unfortunately that was one of the first things I tried.
Why is my notification bar disabled even though I don't have that setting enabled?
One of two reasons: The Block Power Dialog option unfortunately also blocks expanding of the notification bar. The Settings help will be updated in the future to explain this. System security (pin/pattern/password) locks the notification bar itself, this is independent of WidgetLocker.
Found on their website. Don't know if this is a fix or not since I don't have widget locker installed.

Yeah, I stubled upon that too but the weird thing is that the bar is NOT disabled while using WidgetLocker but becomes inaccessible after removing or disabling the app. I'm running ICS 4.0.2 so I'll update and see what happens.
So I recently had to reinstall JB because I was getting inaccurate storage space reporting & now I can't remember how to get Google Now to display the weather card in the notification drop down. TIA for any solutions.

You have to turn off Google Now, then turn it back on.. and it will display. Guess it still has some minor issues to be worked out :S

Go into Google Now > Settings > "Google Now" tab > hit the little "on" switch in the top right corner and confirm to turn it off.
Nice, THANKS, Same thing happened to me and I couldn't figure out why it wasn't there anymore.
Google Now was very slow on my Galaxy Nexus, I've tried everything. Today I was playing around with custom launchers and dpi settings and voila I found a fix. It works for me but hopefully it should work for you. If you are using a custom launcher, make sure "Persistent Search Bar" is set to always. I've disabled this since the ICS days as I've only wanted a search bar on one screen, so I assume a lot of you have as well.
I set this to on and Google Now is flying. Almost instant.
hmmmm interesting....i din think that would b the reason...thx
I see no reason that would have any affect on Google Now.
I was surprised at first too. I spread this fix on a different forum and about 20 people or so have confirmed that it made a difference for them.

That makes sense it keeps Google search in the back ground. Google now is Google Search
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Correction. Doesn't affect Google now. I m on rasbean. G.now used to load in about 1.5 sec,still takes the same time. If I keep g.now off,search loaded in 0.5s from swipe up. Same with this.
THIS. IS. NEXUS.
I'm running Liquid JB with Nova Launcher.
I did noticed the HUGE slow down, as it would almost take a good 10-15 seconds for GN to fully load up.. And even then the voice search was horribly slow.
Just tired this little tidbit and it works like a charm now.
Yeah, dingokevin's got the right idea.
Having the "persistent search bar" basically keeps the QuickSearchBox.apk in the background memory. Google Now is run off of that same .apk, so it is also run in the background. The search bar in the launcher is an app that has to be called by the launcher, and thus keeping the search bar keeps Google Now.
Unfortunately, I'd like to find a way to do this without the search bar. I feel it ruins the look of the desktop.
Great find! I've been battling this problem for a long time. I'm using paranoid android running nova launcher. Thanks!!! This fix should be stickied!!
Turn off Hot word in voice settings.

I've always had persistent search bar turned on and have always found Google Now to be slow. If this fix really works then I can't imagine how slow Google Now must have been for people who disabled it lol.

This is a good hint, turning off hot word. Also I got to looking at google now and turned off traffic, wonder if this will help with the google maps wakelocks.... hmm.
This doesn't do anything. Been running Now without persistent search bar since day 1 of JB and never ANY lag.
where are the settings for hot words? I can't seem to find it in the google now settings

Got a Samsung galaxy watch active 2
I used to have a constant notification on my lockscreen and pull down menu. It was from the wear app I think.
It's now gone and I can't get it back. Any ideas please?
I liked having that because when using my phone it shows if the watch is connected or not
Go to app settings and enable notifications for said app. I believe it should be "silent".
