Google Now == No Bluetooth Voice Dialing - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

I can't believe how many Developers are blindly adding this stupid Google Now and breaking bluetooth Voice Dialing.
It has nothing to do with how well it was Ported from Jelly Bean.
Google Now breaks bluetooth Voice Dialing.
Please developers make it an option to add it, an option to Remove it or release two flavors with and without.
You are killing a lot of folks that feel bluetooth voice dialup is a mandatory function and renders the phone useless.
Even some Jelly Bean Nexus users are wishing they never took the Jelly Bean update.
Here is a bug filed on Google Now
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=35199

This is a known bug, either uninstall the app yourself or deal with it.

I don't think you can just uninstall it.
Otherwise I would.
Things are rewired and need to be rewired back.
Some files include other mods as well.
I have tried.

FYI, you can get Bluetooth Voice Dialing back by going into
Settings->Apps->All->Google search->and DISABLE.
You will lose all Google Now features but at least you can get Voice Dial back over a Bluetooth Headset.

What's your problem. DB13 didn't know the answer and obviously you don't either.
Not sure what ROMs your running. But on some ROMs that Disable feature is greyed out.
On MikLate Rename System/App/Velvet.Apk to System/App/Velvet.Apk_OFF
On superLTE Rename System/App/GoogleNow.Apk to System/App/GoogleNow.Apk_OFF
On MeanROM the Disable works.
And for the Record I think GoogleNow is using up battery too.

SuperLTE is considering removing it and making it optional for similar reasons.
Mikey has made newer releases to help with Google Now battery life.
I think my hunch is correct.
I've moved back to MeanRom 2.1 since the wave of Google Now ROMs while you guys beta test it

Yea except 2.9 was before the release that "improved battery life" version. Still 19 hours w/25% left, with medium/heavy usage. Oh yea I forgot, thats terrible battery life.
Mean 2.6 and higher have been nothing but butter, so not really sure what there is to beta test..

If you want to get rid of google now go to this thread and flash the zip under 'back to stock' then uninstall and reinstall 'talkback' from the market and bluetooth dialing and voice search will work.

Edit: I'm running Bad Seed Customs Tranquility RLS1b and its baked in right now but in the next build it will be removed and made an add-on option. Super smooth Rom with lots of options and great battery life, definitely worth a spin.
*this one*

Here's a link to a thread that might work as a temporary solution:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1883895
It says to convert Google Now from a system app to a user app and then it will allow us to use a 3rd party voice dial app without disabling Google Now (Google search app) at all. I tried it on LiquidSmooth jb Galaxy S3 rom and it did let me choose which ever voice dialing app I wanted, but then I had troubles getting the 3rd party apps to use my bluetooth mic over my phone mic. I ended up using the app "Voice Control Full" for $1.99 because it had the option to force sound to a bluetooth device.

This was a pain in my ass too which is why I came snooping around the threads. I have mean ROM and let me tell you that google lady can't tell a phone number from a hole in the ground. My workaround for now is that I just put the voice dialer icon on the first screen and while I have to touch the icon on the screen to activate the dialer, it lets me use my bluetooth headset to speak the name. I didn't want to uninstall google now, because i like the functionality. So hopefully one of these days they'll push out an update that addresses this issue.

New Market 3.1.3 (3.1.5 is up now too)

Edit, as of October 3, I'd suggest holding off on the 3.1.6 Market update. Could be fishy. It's signed differently than Google does. Mine below are fine.
EDIT: The new market is cool and all, but I have noticed that if I have multiple google accounts, it switches back and forth... which is REALLY annoying. If you notice issues, go to menu > accounts and make sure your primary is selected. Other than this, it is great.
EDIT 2: there is now a 3.1.5 - the bug mentioned above still exists
DOWNLOAD LINK FOR 3.1.5
If you had 3.1.3, it may just auto-update for you.
---------- below is older information for 3.1.3 --------------
You can thank @MastaTM (XDA: Official_Master) for the new Market (3.1.3)
http://www.multiupload.com/41FQ6PQ3MS
The below is litterally pasted from androidpolice (again, they are on point). I bolded what is new.
Wow, Google is on a roll with the Android Market lately. Since the release of Market v3.0, a number of small updates have come to the Android Market recently, but this is by far the biggest yet. Google has added the long-awaited +1 functionality to the Android Market (which has been on the web version of the Market for quite some time), along with a few other goodies.
There's a brand-new settings menu, as well as click-to-read explanations of app permissions (not developer customizable, unfortunately).
There are also 2 brand-new Market icons to spruce things up a bit (within the Market itself - unfortunately, the app drawer icon is still the same).
For convenience's sake, the size in megabytes of each app, along with its latest update date, have been moved from the bottom of descriptions to the top of individual app pages, which is a very useful change in our book.
Moving on to the thumbnail navigator, Google added a long-overdue sliding transition - a nice touch that makes the Market feel more polished.
Oh, and did we mention you can now use an optional custom PIN for purchases on your phone, instead of leaving your Google Checkout wide open for anyone that picks up your device? If you have kids, or your phone is stolen, this is one awesome feature to have - and really, it makes a lot of sense.
You'll need Unknown Sources enabled in the Settings -> Applications menu to install it.

Installing Android Market APK
Could use a little help here. Put a new ROM on my wife's phone, but for some reason, it doesn't have the Market on it. Every time I download the APK for the Market though, it asks me if I want to assign an account to it, which I choose Yes, and then it closes. I'm going to keep working on it, but if anyone has any ideas, please help!

Can you upload it? I did not know there was an update. Curious if it fixes the account switching bug in .3.
EDIT: nevermind... it does not fix the bug.
thank you, this new is better ;D
2.xx is better. 3.xx is too slow and laggy
Someone in the General apps forum uploaded what they claim is version 3.1.6. I pushed it into system/app and over wrote vending.apk but I still have version 3.1.5. Others are reporting success, though. Saying it looks a little more polished.
Edit: Removed link due to suspicious nature of this "update". Search it out and install it on your own, but I've restored my nandroid backup and am done with it until more is known about it.

Yeah, I know about that one. Something is wrong with the boot.img...
It existed in CM9 too
As for the next build, expect one sometime in the next 7 hours
That's because Offline Charging is disabled.
It is still buggy.

Anyone noticed that Google Now doesn't seem to work? It doesn't FC anymore but it won't let you scroll through the different cards...
EDIT: Oh, and also... Link2SD is still un-usable. After installing it, downloading apps from Play Store makes the process "system" crash and there's nothing you can do from that point, you have to reboot your phone.

What Google Apps package are you using?
Link2SD works fine for me
I'm using latest "light" gapps. The problem with Google Now is not only with the cards but when I search something I can't scroll through the results, only the top part of the screen "moves" when scrolling.
Link2SD does work but I'm not sure why but it makes it a pain to install new apps. Having to reboot phone each time because system process crashed. And must be done each time you install a single app... :silly:

Still the p500 with ROM build1 can't be detected as USB modem (I meant no USB tethering) by Slackware machine. Could you please to fix it? I encountered that bug (?) in all ROM (ICS and JB) I ever have flashed it, but GB (OpenOptimus ROM build 2.202.1)!.
Anyway, your ROM even it's the first built is one of the great JB ROM for obsolete phone hardware. It's almost stable imho. If you can fix mentioned above problem and the camera, it'll be perfect for my daily use!

To make Google Now work, you have to use the version for ARMv6 from this link(from 'Instructions for ARMv6 devices')>> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1816622 !!! To get the voice work (it will listen to you, but will repeat what you said, but at least you don't have to write what you are looking for) use the workaround: The Voice Search for Google Now app. More details in the link!!! And yes, this method should work on Jelly Bean, not only on ICS. Good Luck!!! :good:

Does Google maps find your location? Cause the nav is part of that app.
The google maps app finds me where ever I am.. the nav doesnt ever get gps info. It hangs for hours never connecting. Navigation the blue arrow on maps..I get no step by step directions voice. But the map connects I can see destination and directions list..

Try either clearing data from maps app in app manager (the bigger of the 2 files) or uninstalling and reinstallation of maps. Try the first and see what happens.

First things first, download gps status and see if you get a lock on some satellites and the data at the bottom refreshes, if not let us know.
which cleanROM? Weren't verizon note 2 users having problems with the univeral cleanROM and GPS? If so, I'd try the verizon specific cleanROM
Gps status no luck.. just hangs looking for sat signal. And its the 4.2 version of clean rom based off of international .. im cool with using map quest.. it works great. So does google maps just navigation sucks. Im stickin with the clean rom 4.2 pack for now. Just figured someone had a work around for no gps issue in nav. Thanks for responding guys

If you got nothing in GPS status then you have a GPS problem, not a navigation problem. Backup your rom, flash Beans, just get it far enough to download GPS status again, get a lock with all the relevant info at the bottom, then restore back to CR.

Yeah this. Idk how you're getting a maps lock and not a GPS status lock. But you need a solid lock for turn by turn to work. I was simply thinking you had a good lock. I always use GPS status to check lock and then proceed to use the others. What he suggested works. I did it back on clean rom 3.whatever and haven't had an issue since. However I also took Scotts advice and literally wiped everything about my phone when coming from beans. I'm talking Internal and external SD. Backed it up first of course. Somethjng between em doesn't play nice.

It works because maps will use the Cell towers and wifi to lock on alone, but many apps will require a true GPS lock (Ingress and the Nav app come to mind).
You don't have the experience or credentials to be claiming GPS is "broke". I hear this same stupid crap with every phone I get, and it's always someone like you.
It's not a Clean rom nor Note 2 issue. You're obviously doing it wrong. I don't see how some people have so many issues with phones. It's always noobs like you as well. Proof:

Man I understand the frustration...I do but there was a time even you didn't know jack about phones. Yeah maybe he should've searched but he didn't. No need to bash him so hard. Questions are how some people learn. Myself Included. I see so many high and mighty Devs who are too good to help people with problems yet have no problems bashing people. Its like the nerd in school who was a nobody and is now a somebody but with the worst possible attitude.
never claimed gps was broke,the phone just never picking it up,i never said i was a hacker or a phone programmer just wanted to get some phone freedom rom wise, thanks to the other guys (blackbass) and scott himself for helping out, i went to the verizon lite rom and it worked like a charm, i only brought it up here, because i remember reading awhile back in these forums, i honestly feel great that you took the time to root around in my profile, i feel better that you took the time to do that and not actually help, Blackbass you made a great call on deleting and reinstalling maps, did lock on faster to my local, but no dice on the navigation front.

Pop Up Ads All Over

I have just, in the past couple of days, developed a pretty serious issue with pop-up ads appearing all over the place on my phone. They come in two different ways. 1st is when an ad pops up over the top of another app. This has happened with GO SMS and with the Facebook app for sure. I can't recall what other apps it has happened with, but I don't get the impression that the ad is related to the app I'm in. I've had them pop up on the home screen as well.
Here is an example of a pop-up ad when I opened GO SMS:

I also have it happen where I open my browser (I use Chrome) and it will automatically launch a new tab, then the tab will act as a redirect and send me to the Play Store for another app (basically sending me to the download/install page for an app).
I don't recall installing any apps just before this started happening. I believe that my app list is the same before and after this issue, but I'll keep looking. I have not rooted and am using the Nova Pro launcher, if that helps at all.
How can I figure out what is causing this and, most importantly, how do I make it go away? A factory reset is an option, but I'd like to keep that as a last resort if possible.
Thank you for any and all help.

Air Push Detector said it is not necessary for Android 4.1+. I ran it, though, and told it to scan anyways. It didn't find anything.
It is driving me nuts that I can't nail down where these are coming from.
Try uninstalling gosms. If I remember right. When I tried that crapp it was full of ads

I can try that. If that is the offender, that'll be a real bummer. Used it for about a year, now, between my S3 and Note 3 and never had an issue. I got pretty comfy with using it as a messaging app, too.
That said, if it is going to cause pop-ups like this, it isn't worth it.

You recently change a theme in it or something?
Many of the "free" addons to Go* products are full of this crap.

I had an add on, but it was from a while ago. I can't really think of a thing I changed between it not happening and happening.
I have deleted GO SMS, though, and have not experienced the issue since. Looking like that was the culprit. Now I just need to find an acceptable SMS app.

Really nice so far. Theme engine is flawless so far and opened browser up for first time and it logged me right in almost instantly. Have had issues with that since first lollipop build went out.
I can't use any third party browser all the ones I try won't open they fail with weird errors.
Testing update
Everything seems pretty solid for a first build. I went from the 3-25 build of 5.0.2. To Pac roms the last couple days. To clean slate and fresh install this morning. Only thing i have is still no Netflix. Have tried uninstalling and a reboot. Install and a couple reboots. And there is no mute on calls. Which by no means are deal breakers for me. Also GPS is a little off however finds location pretty quickly. I use my LTE connection for all my net use. I average around 250-350gb per month so a daily driver is a must for me. Thanks for your hard work on this Wilson.
On a side note. I don't see the thanks button anymore. Am i missing something.

Did you try another reboot after installing Netflix?
Check this file /data/data/com.netflix.mediaclient/shared_prefs/nfxpref.xml:
Did you see this line before "</map>"?
<int name="nflx_player_type" value="10" />
If not, manually add this line...

Will be loaded in next build.

Im am a rookie. How do i check for the script. a file explorer ?

Default CM file manager will do...change access mode to root in settings...
You can get a logcat for me to trace...It could be due to the same libc issue. Sorry no netflix in my country.
Other than Chrome force-closing, this seems to running well for me. My last week or two of 5.0 nightlies gave me a lot of trouble connecting to my home wifi, but this is not an issue here. I did wipe clean for this, whereas I was dirty flashing 5.0, so maybe that has something to do with it.
EDIT: Not sure if this would be ROM related, but I do not have an option within either of my Google accounts to synchronize my calendar. I can synchronize Gmail, App Data, Contacts, People, and Fit data, but that's all. I do not even have a greyed out option for calendar; it's simply not there.

Confirmed. 4/2 build is flawless. Everything works. FCS are gone. Other than missing MUTE in call everything is pristine.
Thank you!
I'm Going to have to give this another go. I reverted back to Alliance build 30 because of not receiving calls all of the time on a lot of the lollipop builds. And it is hit or miss as to weather I would receive a call and not rom specific.
