called google search not google now

Anyone know the new commands for the new cards?
Says I can make reservations...but I'm not able to get that one to work. Also, it says that it'll pull tracking numbers from my email, also not working.

I had to restart in order to get most things to work

It also shows cards if you get email notifications for items that have shipped. Nice update so far.

Nice, I did notice this yesterday on the update list.
One thing that still drives me bonkers is when I ask it to set a timer..
Like "set a timer for 10 minutes" it ALWAYS creates a NEW stupid alarm. Why cant Google just build in a countdown timer and have it run off that?
Its really annoying the fact it creates a new alarm for everything and doesn't delete when its done.

Launching apps only works with certain apps. Won't even launch Chrome.

Does the gmail integration work if I don't use the gmail app? I use K9 to keep all my emails in one ace.

They did update the clock app in 4.2 maybe they are intending for it to work there.

Possibly, though i'm running off the last RC of Liquid JB, and its using the CM10 clock in it :/
Wonder if I have to install a different clock in order for it work properly?
Does it set a timer within that 4.2 clock? or still set a new alarm?

Yes, I use the stock AOSP email for a unified inbox with my gmail and exchange, and it worked great. I do have the gmail app installed, but don't use it, you might need it on the phone for it to work properly, but it will do it without you even checking your gmail app.

Twitter contacts sync still broken

Twitter updated to 3.1.1 on the Market yesterday.
Contacts sync is still not working. Just thought I would pass this along if not posted already.
Regards,
at the risk of asking the obvious did you activate the sync settings in the app? Three dots> settings> your account> sync...
Then activating in the ics accounts and sync settings?

Last update broken notifications. This latest update supposedly fixed them.
My settings work. Sync doesn't though.
Yeah latest update, notification works, not Contact Sync.
You should let them know @mobilesupport as they may not be aware.

Does twitter not offer a sync api to third parties? I went back to plume when they did their big update not too long ago. I've noticed friendcaster for Facebook offers some sort of sync but I find it odd that no 3rd party twitter app has sync yet.

The contact sync issue is almost certainly related to their security problem in February. I think they purposely still have it off.

We're talking about contacting syncing in this thread and yours is broken too.
If you want twitter sync to work go to 4shared and download an older version of Twitter, resync and there you have it.

Light flow issues

I simply can't get this thing to work consistently..
It will only work if i open the Light flow app and go to notifications, then I can press home button and go back to my home screen but as long as the light flow app is still in the 'multi task' it will work, once I'll swipe it from there it stops working.
Also - when I check for 'Light flow' in the 'running services' under 'apps', it is still there, even after I've swiped it from the multi task , saying '1 process and 1 service', but it will not work unless I open the app itself and go into notifications...
Info -
It only started after the JB update..
I am not running any task managers etc..
I am rooted, stock 4.1.1 JB
I tested it with Gmail, charging etc..
This really sucks.. Am I the only one??....
Since the update that was meant to fix Jelly Bean issues, I've had no issues. Its working well for me.

Got a responce from the dev:
"Hi
At the moment for some reason in jelly bean swiping away the app causes the app to stop working. It'll show in the services as android restarts it on the crash, but it's lost its state until you re-enter the app to initialise it.
I'm looking into a fix for that.
I've sent a simple test case over to one of the top android framework*designers as they picked up on a post I placed into their support forums about it.*

(Samsung App) Drive Link

Haven't seen it posted so time for it to go up Great app to use while driving especially the music player. Note that the weather information might take some time to show up.(it was working for me on both tw and aokp)
Description: The app's welcome screen displays widgets for local weather and upcoming appointments, alongside large icons for navigation and calls.
"Drive Link has complete navigation functionality using the smartphone's GPS features, allowing the user to select preset, recent or favorite destinations, or search for a specific address," the firm said in its Global electronics blog on Tuesday.
"If a text message with address information is received while using the App, users can set the address as their destination with just a single click on the text."

Have you tried reinstalling the app? I don't use it, but I have spent the last few minutes Googling the question and it does not appear to be a common issue.
I will try it out when I get home, since I have been wanting to kill Rhapsody for a LONG time, but the song selection is massive...
It's because the device isn't authorized. Log in to Google music from your computer. Hit the little cog wheel in the upper right corner. Go to devices and delete ALL of the devices. Then wipe data on your Google music app. Then open it. Authorize it by selecting your email address when it first boots. Profit

This is not related to your problem but it is related to Google Music. If you wish to play Google Music on a 3rd party music player then try GMusicFS. once downloaded just log onto your account & sync. GMusicFS
