Google now where is it? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Thought it was supposed to be in jb?
Is there a Rom with it by chance? Right now using 10.1

If you press the menu button does it give you the option to turn Google Now on/off? If not, you probably need to update search from the Play Store.
Edit: should be under menu button/settings.

Didn't have Google search installed. Now I have now. Question is ,I thought it was for things like opening apps or giving flight times. All I get after asking a question is Google search page

For that functionality you can try an app called "iris." from the Play Store.

old Google voice search

can anyone tell me how to get the old Google voice search? the grey one with voice commands? the new Google-now search app is not cutting it for me, and yes, Google now itself is turned off in options. and i really don't like the s-voice either...

disable s-voice in apps-all apps-s voice and your new default double click home button should be the simple Google you want

so, from another carrier Samsung forum,i think i have to find a Google voice search apk to download from someone's sii? it's a separate app and not in market anymore and not on the notes or siii?
i thought low voice commands etc were baked into android. but this is not the case? so, can anyone confirm? more importantly, can someone link the apk for us note users?

S voice and Google now

just a quick question is it possible to get s voice on the s2 now that we have jelly bean? And is it even useful now that we also have Google now?

In my opinion s voice is a whole lot better than Google now. And if you're running a stock JB rom, then just hold down the search button and walla there is s voice

It took me to voice command, that's not it right? I froze it to use Google now for my search button long press. Do I maybe need to reflash the jb update or do a factory reset?

Never mind, please mark this post for deletion. I figured out how to install it I had to first delete voice command, then it installed perfectly fine. And I can open Google now and s voice both with the search button. Long press is s voice, double tap is Google now.
Although I can't get s voice to activate from lock screen or when phone is locked.

What do you mean install S Voice? If you have JB 4.1.2 it should be already installed.
some roms s-voice is an add on not baked in

[Q] Google Now update disabled Image Search

Has anyone noticed that you can no longer search by image in the Google Now app?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
I didn't know that you can do it in the first place. How were you able to search by image?
There were two different ways, typing image search in the search bar or pressing menu and selecting image search while within google now

Something got deleted on my Google maps

I used SD maid and it deleted something I think.
No matter if I completely remove maps and start over... It says network connection not found... I could be on wifi or 4g and it still says network connection no found.
Any idea what I need? :banghead:

Uninstall Google Maps update under settings, app manager, google maps, clear app data and reinstall the update via Play Store.
OPEN Google maps and accept the terms DON'T open the navigation app until you have done this final step.
Hoping this helps

I did try that already...
Then ... I totally uninstalled the app.
And re installed it.
Still, same issue.
Tomorrow when I boot up my computer I'll see if titanium has a backup of it.

I read somewhere also that if you use lucky patcher to block adds that it might interfere with Maps/Navigation it was suggested there to clear the "host" file, I just don't remember where I read that.
