Don't know if this will do what you want, but it's worth a shot.
Bring up google now, hit menu and select Phone Search
Uncheck People
This -should- keep google now from bringing up your contacts, but I haven't tried it so I don't know for sure.
Good luck!

Yeah tried that it doesn't stop the voice dial when you push the Bluetooth button... all previous builds would let you choose a default action for that button but gnow just takes over no matter what.... i wish there was a way to choose the default...

Perhaps you could delete Google search from your current rom, then extract Google search from an ics rom and install it

[Q] dial 1 to accept call

When receaving a call I get a voice message saying that there is a call from ----- press 1 to accept the call press 2 to go to voicemail. I am using google voice.
Are there any sugestions. I've gone to settings in "call", "google voice" ect.
Go to GV on your computer and go to settings. There's an option to turn off call screening.

Make sure to set that as the default on all groups, unless there are groups which you wish to have call screening.

What is the point of using Google voice instead of just regular? I apology for my ignorance.

I like that it saves all your text and voice messages online, and it is extremely easy to reply to messages from your computer.

Ever wish u had a second # u could give out? Want to be able to screen calls or listen in while someone is leaving u a vm? Wish some folks calls would just go to a spam folder & never ring ur cell? Wish u had an app that did all of this & gave u a second phone #? If u answered yes to any of these then u need a GV account.
Hope that helped.

Lmao you're a good advertiser. Can I get that using the account using the phone? I think I already have a GV but I didn't get a #. I'm slightly confused but I understand the awesomeness of what you said.

If u never completed setup of Ur fb account just go to Google.com/voice & complete the account setup to get Ur #. Once u've done that simply go to the market & download the gv app & set it up.

Help! I can't answer my phone!

Ok when I am getting a phone call, it is asking me if I want to answer and to click 1 or 2 etc but before I can do that it hangs up on the caller. I think it's probably Google Voice doing this, but it never did it before. I need google voice, i use it for my voicemail. I run CM7 and it doesn't even have a VVM program. But I can't keep hanging up on everyone who calls me! What can I do?
Go to your google voice settings from your browser. One of the options is to disable the prompt.
To be exact,you should disable call screening

Does JB replace S Voice with Google Now when you upgrade???

Asking all the people who are running the early builds or anyone who scored an official?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using xda premium
No. It doesn't replace it. You get Google Now still. And the voice for S Voice changes. More humanly. But still not as real sounding as Google Now. I re mapped my home button to launch Google Now because S Voice has always been incredibly slow and not that great IMO

All you have to do is hold the menu soft key to launch Google Now.

Yeah. But I wanted the feel of S Voice (one of the only good things about it), with the brain of Google Now, you know?
I wonder why Samsung is still trying to push S Voice so hard when Google's own software is vastly better the S Voice. I kinda would have preferred if it was taken out completely.

Can Google Now launch apps? I know S Voice can...

Not hard, considering Siri is a dumb broad..
I can't think of a single possible reason one would choose S Voice over Google Now. It's just terrible. Sure, being able to control the phone with your voice is a neat feature. But it's useless. I can launch any app on my phone faster than you can get S Voice to do it. Cool + impractical = useless.
I suggest keeping both S Voice and Google Now. On Jelly Bean, you'll be getting Google Now which is an addition for voice prompts. S Voice is mostly used to control the phone and launching commands whereas Google Now is great for searching.
S Voice = Commands, Launches (EX. Text John Smith Where are you?)
Google Now = Searches (EX. What is tomorrow's weather in Los Angeles?)
Both have their PROS and CONS.

You need Voice Search in order to use voice command.

I don't have "Google voice " as an input option under Settings-> language & input.
I added a new keyboard (Go keyboard" ) and the mic is there and i was able to use it. So i assume that the ICS Keyboard is broken.
Here are the more details:
the keyboard that is included in JMT9 by default is "ICS Keyboard v 2.0.1" and i could not get the mic to show up on it.
The GO keyboard has the mic and it's working fine.
the "ICS keyboard " by johntanmi ( free version ) has the mic but it's not working.
GO keyboard is a bit too much for me . looking for something more streamlined. Any suggestions are welcomed.

google voice

Just wondering if anyone has used Google voice for voicemail alone while running imperium. The guide I saw for setting it up said there was an option to choose Google voice instead of my carrier but I can't seem to find that option. Thanks

I also could not find the option to choose Google Voice instead of My Carrier. All that does is change the number that is dialed when you long press the "1". I was able to change it easily with my Nexus S 4G but cannot locate where to change it on my LGOG. I am not rooted and compltely running stock. Thanks! :good:
