I installed M6 a while back and I was helping get Google Now on my friends RAZR, and I noticed xda updated op with M7. I flashed that on his RAZR and it seems to be buggier than M6.

I have everything functional beside voice response. unless I'm just an idiot and expecting my phone to talk to me like Siri.

How so? What bugs in particular?

I can't get M6 to give me pre season football anything, but it loves to rub how sucky the Red sox are in my face...

Well on M7 every two or three commands would freeze up and not go through, and the cards seemed to be a bit buggy.

Switched to M7, no issues yet. I'll keep a watch out for card transitions, one off the clunkier bits from before.

If you're looking for an app, you won't find it. Depends on your ROM set-up, but for me, holding the search button launches a choice of voice search, command, etc. I picked google. From there I can voice search, and it displays the results in Google Now. Also (which I can't find this option in my ROM, so might be built into Google Now) but holding menu launches the actual cards.

also on a side note if you press on the google search widget or Icon it will open, also long press the search soft key and it should open as well I am running arctic and all is fine...so far!!

As did I, and it's been running extremely well thus far. Better than M6, definitely.

This is weird... everytime I hit Bootstrap Recovery, I don't get the "Success!" popup and instead it just reboots... anyone know how to fix this? Ive already uninstalled and reinstalled it..

edit: Ok I went into superuser and toggled Bootstrap Recovery and then hit Bootstrap Recovery and got the "Success" popup but Reboot Recovery didn't work... :huh:

edit 2: Well i figured it out... first I went to superuser and toggled Razr Bootstrap (which made status "denied"... then went to Razr Bootstrap and hit Bootstrap Recovery... "Success!" then I went back to superuser and toggled Razr Bootstrap again (which made status "allowed") and went to Razr Bootstrap and hit Reboot Recovery, and it worked! wtf? no idea why but I'll take it..

I just found it Voice Dialing from Bluetooth is broken.
Anyway to have Google Now, but set it to use the built-in Motorola Voice Dialer instead?

I haven't had any issues with voice dialing, other than the recognition is pretty terrible compared to the standard voice dialer. It's not broken, per se, as it will still choose a contact and call, but probably 40% of the time I've used it, it's selected the wrong contact.

Are you actually getting it to dial the contact? Mine just pulls up a card with the contact then I have to hit another button to actually get it to dial. Does the same thing with alarms too.

Mine would have the blue loading bar under the contact and if you don't press anything for three seconds it dials the contact.
