I am getting the same thing running ArcticHD. I asked how tall MJ was and it gave me the background info with the card showing 6'6"

Ok glad it's not just me.. I guess that's how they want it to be... thanks for testing

Yes. You dont get audible que though. It takes you to the google now searchbox to type in what you want or you can say google to search vocally

single tap of search allows you to type in the google now searchbox or you can tap the mic to speak
Long press of search takes you into google now vocal search if you set google search to be the default application

I will need to wait until the BT functions are working. For my job I am on BT a lot so I need it to function 100%. I love Google Now on my tablet, can't wait to get it on the phone.

Have you tried editing the build.prop to a different sdk version?

Thanks, could you be more specific about the steps? I was thinking something like a Apk or flaws able zip would be easy

Using a root file explorer, navigate to System.

Find the "build.prop" file and press and hold on it.

Open the file with a text editor

Look for this line:

Should be Line 6 in the build.prop file

Change the "15" to a"16" (You will probably get some force closes after this, just ignore them until after you try to update Google Search.

Your line in the build.prop should now look like this:

Reboot and try updating Google Search now. If it doesn't work then I don't know what else to suggest.

If it does work, after updating is complete, go back and change Line 6 in the build.prop to this:

Please Login or Register to see this Hidden Content


Reboot and you should be good to go!
