Does the Google Now work on the Note 2?
Do the cards show up as they do on the Nexus? What about vocal queries using Google Now?
Do they work the same way?
I presume Google Now is a big improvement over SVoice.

It works. No need to worry I am using it
It works well, my only gripe is getting it to come up with double clicking the home button.
I know that pressing and holding the settings button brings it up too, but it also activates the keyboard. Kinda annoying.
If your on a home screen just tap a search widget or long press menu to get it up.

You can long press the Home button and goes into the Task Manager, at the bottom of the screen you will see 3 buttons, and click on the Google button(between the task manager and remove all dustbin logo) to go into google now.:cyclops:
Long press the Menu button.
Or use the Google search bar widget

The stock 4.1 launcher has 5 homescreens. You can't add or remove screens. The "pinch and zoom" you describe is not a feature in stock Android (never has been), and is often added by third-party launchers.
You can download one of the many popular third-party launchers in the Play Store. They offer these features and more if you'd like them.
There are many different launchers that change the way your Android phone look and interact, but if you like light weight and fast, try the Holo or Xperia launcher, link in my signature.
WELCOME to the world of Android. Don't forget to read the first sticky thread of this Q&A section.

Personally, I recommend Apex over Nova. :thumbup:
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Xparent Green Tapatalk 2
Andriod has so many options for everything, Try as many as you can to find whats best for you.
Apex + Nova launchers are a good place to start if the stock launcher is not for you.
this is how you delete extra homescreen
I have a tab 2, this Samsung ui is great I see no need to replace it, here is how thou remove the extra homescreens, lay 3 or 4 fingers on the home screen and bring them quickly together like a pinch, try out till you get it right, you can thrn hold and drsg the uneeded screens to the garbage can. Ez pleezy.

I must agree. This was exactly the answer I was looking for, for my Note 10.1, and I think it was exactly on point for this thread. Too bad it wasn't answered sooner.

This easy method will help reduce the home button lag issue on the s3.
Open S-voice > settings > uncheck launch s-voice by double tapping home.

Great advice, I found this before I got mine and it really helped. Wish S voice wasn't so terrible.
It worked, thank you.

Its not horrible....it is just that the phone needs to see if your gonna double tap or not....which in this case it waits an extra millisecond to function home...
Sorry for the newbish questions...just switched from an iPhone!
Does anyone have a pretty clear/easy to follow guide to installing s voice on a gs3 running cm10? I need something as useful as siri that I can activate just by tapping the home button.
Also in cm10 is there a way to make double-tapping the home button do something? Holding is an option in settings but not double-tapping.
Lastly, in settings, there is an option for assigning functions to the search button. Is there a way to assign things to the back button? And what is the search button in the settings?
Thank you!!

What you're looking for is Google Now (which should be included in the gapps package for CM10). S-Voice only runs on Touchwiz based ROMs.

Is it possible to get the tube tv effect when I put my screen to sleep on the stock rom?
??
Its called crt animation and not on stock roms! Im sure in time there will be a custom rom that will contain that soon

Try this
There's an app that I used on my TF101. It is a shortcut that locks your screen with a variety of effects:
Screen off and lock
It's free in the Play Store. No root required.
I dont want a custom rom on this phone.

What are you talking about? Did you even try to install the app that I linked to?
Lol
my bad, I meant to reply to tyshemi, not you. I did install that app. It does not work with the power button, and the animation is not as nice..=
The CRT off animation doesn't play well with JB from what I've seen a couple devs say, which is why it isn't even on the custom ROMs, so chances of getting it on a regular phone are slim and none I'd say.

I never said it worked with the power button. It's an icon you can tap; might actually be nicer. But I'm sorry to hear that you don't like it as much!

Thanks for the info. I kind of like the tv static plus crt close.
I have the off button on my screen now. For when I actually remember to use it, vs muscle memory of hitting the physical button.

No problem! Just a word of caution - When I use this in combination with WidgetLocker the unlock doesn't work. I had to turn the screen off with the power button then it worked again. Most likely caused by the way that WidgetLocker is an app and not a system function.
I use flipcover in Note 2. I really like pick up in-calling by power bottun, not by home button. thanks. if you know any ROM or app solving my question, it is also great.

Thank for your support. I search my concerns by google, many people meet the same problem, and so far there is no any solution. anyway I can try to answer in-call by shaking fuction. better than nothing.
I appreciate that someone share with us how to answer incall when using flipcover in note 2. so far I know answer call by touching home key and touching screen.
