Why google now does not work?

It works fine. Why don't you try describing your problem instead of a rather vague "does not work"?

It works! It is amazing better than Siri! You might need internet access for it to work.

[Q] Android and WiFi with redirects

Posted this in another forum, but you all are the experts. Impossible for me to access my work WiFi because of redirects (splash screen to accept use parameters).
Wondering if a custom ROM fixes it or if there is another solution.
Having an issue connecting to WiFi with Evo updated via official release of 2.2. I couldn't access it via 2.1 either. It's an odd network designation.
However, the iPhone can connect once I okay the error message.
Is there a work around that you may know about? Web search basically told me that the protocol is old and useless and that it should be changed. That is not possible.
Network designation is 1.1.1.1. I was unable to add links clarifying this because I am a new user.
Well Android can not connect to 1.1.1.1 addresses / networks / redirects. However the iPhone can. Is it inherent to the Android, or is there an app or tweak to get it to work.
This message ends by saying it will be fixed with Froyo.
Still can't post links to show what I mean.
Steamliver I just did a Google search for "Android 1.1.1.1" and this was the top result: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1597
I'm guessing this is the problem you are describing. Sounds frustrating and it has been going on for a long time. The newest post at the time I'm writing this recommends installing the Fennec browser (Firefox for Android, basically) and that worked for the poster.
If you have a laptop you could bring to work and tether via USB, I wonder if that would work? Just a temporary work around to use the phone to establish the wifi connection, then view the browser redirect on the laptop, accept, and then maybe you would be good to go?
Also, the simplest thing might be to call the IT department and ask them for help. Given Android's growing market share, one of them probably already have an Android phone and a fix for this problem. Good luck.
I have tried firefox and that did not solve the problem, does anyone have another ideas how to solve this.
It seems that 1.1.1.1 is locked in the android.

[Q] Chrome to Phone

Has anyone managed to get Chrome to Phone to work? Yes, I know the 101 isn't a phone, but I assumed it worked via the active internet connection? Have tried uninstalling/reinstalling etc, and its all set up exactly as on my Desire, again where it works fine.
Unfortunately it's not working for me either. Wish we can find a fix because this little archos is a sweet internet device...
EDIT:
Ok got it to work. When i set up my Archos I had used the same gmail that I used on my Android phone. I guess this causes confusion in chrome to phone? Anyway
Settings>applications>Chrome to phone>delete data
Sign in with a different gmail account and it's working. I know this is not optimal to use a different account but it's a workaround till we find a real fix.
I try, but it has a lug 3-5 minutes before getting links

[Q] Trying to get Wallet to work...

All,
I had at one point got Wallet to work on my unrooted phone, but over the months, since I changed ROM's so often and I have everything restored via TitaniamBackup, that Wallet seems to be broken.
I tried looking at the links for installing Wallet but nothing works or at least seem confusing the way they word it.
Can someone point me to a installing Wallet for dummies or hit me up with the simple instructions.
Thansk!
What do you mean by broken? Does it give any errors?
First, everything looks like its working, it see's the amount I have and everything, and when I try to make a purchase, nothing happens. System don't recognize the payment.
So I deleted it and want to start fresh.
It's possible that the kiosk you used wasn't working properly. Some places don't maintain their paypass readers very well.
Jeez, didn't think like that. Now I deleted my Wallet for nothing instead of testing it out again.

[Q] Trying to get Block Breaker 3 Unlimited HD working

So, I can install it just fine from the play store, however when it goes to download the extra data it tells me it's not supported. I've gotten the same message on my HP touchpad, Galaxy Tab, and HTC Sensation. The method I was using was to just drop my data file into the correct folder, and start the game. Unfortunately that did not work this time around. Maybe I've forgotten something critical to the process?
**EDIT** Crap Probably should have thrown this in Q&A with a [Q] in the title! If a kind mod sees this, a little push over to Q&A would be great
MOD EDIT: Thy wish shall be granted.

First you have to have a Bluetooth capable device to begin. If you are trying to use a computer you should check for the capability first. If not, you can purchase a Bluetooth dongle from Amazon or something. Foxfi should work, although the actual app has been taken off of the play store for sprint users. You can however purchase the key (full version) from the play store. I don't know about ATT tho. If you vsn find the app online on 4shared or something, you should be good to go.
if you're rooted, why not just use the TrevE Mod WiFi Tether. I assume WiFi connect works for Parrot Astroid. It's not hard to setup and easy to use; I'm assuming you are moderately tech savvy since you were able to root.
