Google Now for ICS with VOICE Sense 3.6 100% WORKING - HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity

Google now for ICE with Voice is working and has been tested. i asked for permission to post the flashable zip file. i have tested it and works as described in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1820479 might also work on Asop roms also i havent tired it on de sensed and asop but it should work.
also with the new updated Google Voice below here is the Original thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1747224 please refer to this thread for Q&A or instructions i can help also. i am posting download links here for the updated google now, there are 2 options now offline and online.
online is slower and the install size is smaller but you have to be connected to Internet
Offline is larger and stores 99% of the files and info. choose which one works best for you.
i flashed this with twrp and CWM.
flash away and enjoy google now on your phone

the velvet.apk is actually named velvet2.apk in my zip file so if you had an old version youll end up with both. use root or file explorer to browse to your /system/apps/ folder and delete velvet.apk first.

It's actually still being pretty sketchy on Pegasus. Could just be a bad flash though. Are there thorough uninstall instructions anywhere so I can try again?

Downloading now. Going to try to flash it on Stock ICS (De-Odexed, Zipaligned, rooted) on a AT&T HTC Vivid. Will let you know how it goes. May take a while because I am going to do a backup first. I play Star Wars The Old Republic and use a mobile authenticator and the only way to restore it is to call them and answer a bunch of security crap then have them remove it so you can reinstall the app and re-add it to your account with a new serial number, so I'm not going to flash ANY new roms until there's a JB ROM (or, my 90 day return policy on my Vivid gets close to running out and there's no JB in sight.. then I'm switching to the One X since it's only $50 more)

Okay, it works. Well, except for the double take. I'm pretty sure that's been fixed in other versions, but I don't know if those work on the vivid.
I thought the voice didn't work at first because it would do the beep to let me know it was listening, and the chime when it found results but no voice. Turns out, the beep and chime use alert/notification volume while the voice uses media volume which I had turned all the way down.
So yeah, this works with rooted stock perfectly except for double take and saying "Google"instead of pressing the Mic

....and there goes my only reason for wanting JB. Literally for Google Now. Between this and all of the ICS-themed stuff out there, I have a perfect mix. ICS launcher (Apex), Sense 3.6 apps (peep, friend stream, etc) ICS Dialer, Calculations (what the stock ICS calculator SHOULD have been), Sense Weather, and GOOGLE NOW!
This phone already runs smooth as silk, so the only feature I was willing to abandon it for was the Siri-Stomping Google Now goodness.

This is awesome! It seems to work really well. Voice search and response seems to work just great! Only "issue" so far is that the responses give units of measure in Imperial, and being from Canada, I expect metric. This isn't an issue with the port, just with Now itself I guess.
Anyway, love it! Thanks for the hard work of all Devs involved!
PS - I flashed on Holics 1.2 using CWM.

Sign into your Google account. That should fix it

open up the google app in your app drawer and that will set up google now.

Just FYI - this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1747224) thread has had a lot more progress (and is also the thread that was featured on the front page (http://www.xda-developers.com/android/google-now-with-voice-search-finally-working-on-ics/) on 8/5..don't know why another thread was needed. Look at this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29756226&postcount=2856) post for instructions and flashable zips, and don't forget to check out the FAQ's (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DRq_ElLZxbTIlZ873rjSIg-p1AVfXx0QnTK2RTHOyCE)
And for anyone who wants to try it, here is our services.jar modified as per mikeyxda's suggestion here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30253248&highlight=processrecord+smali#post30253248)
Back up FIRST! then flash away (this was built from a stock ROM's services.jar so I don't know if it will work on others. Your ROM must be deodexed.)

Hold the search soft key it should list which app you want to use select Google search I believe and then you should have a new google search bar white themed and press menu and settings turn everything you want on

Has there been a version released yet where the search results scrolling doesn't stop dead, with no follow-through? Waiting for that to get fixed before I try it again -- it drove me crazy.

[ROM]STOCK! Telstra SENSE 3.5 2.27.841.6 - CWM FLASHABLE - READ OP!!!

I put this in the General section because there is no development going on with this at all (in this thread keep an eye open in dev section for a rom built from this base). If mods want to move it to Dev section then so be it, but there is nothing else being done to this zip.
THIS IS A PURE STOCK TELSTRA SENSE 3.5 build. It has been rooted, deodexed, zipaligned, but nothing else has been done to make it any better. it still has all the Telstra bloat, and horrible wallpapers.
this is not designed for people to flash willy nilly, if you dont know how to fastboot the boot.img on it, then it will not work for you, and i will not hold your hand in doing so. all this is, is a stock base, CWM flashable for anyone to use as they please. if you dont know how to do any of this stuff, then leave it alone and let someone else do the hard work for you, but dont complain about anything. nothing in this zip has been optimized for the vivid or canadian raider.
i have attached the boot.img in a zip file to this post, you HAVE to fastboot flash the boot image before you can flash the rom in CWM. if you dont know how, you better google that ish.
i am not responsible for stupidity. i have flashed this onto my phone 30 times already in various stages, so it is somewhat usable in its current form, but needs a lot of tweaks and changes.
thanks to bananacakes for his updater-script, and binary, as the one i was originally trying to use didnt like me and i didnt want to waste time on it.
again...i repeat. this is not for you if you dont know how to make it work. this is not a hand holding thread, and i am not supporting this

Sorry my bad it wasn't in this Rom it was at holicake but if you try to install it via market it tells you a missing library we might be able to pull it from stock att vivid Rom

Stay away from att messages!, it resets & hijacks your voicemail config from the att side. It's a pain in the rear to reset There's a reason why its not seen from the marketplace on the us vivid. Stick with the visual voicemail apk.

not only that, it moves your mailbox from one voicemail system to another, so you lose any saved messages, all your greetings. Pain in the ass, not worth it.
Holy cow, bloatware in the stock HTC apps?! Dang. I can't believe that it's actually worse than ATT.
Looks like RRb5 took care of most of it; I'd still like to see some Sense 3.5 Beats music up in there, though. I figured out how to "port" it between Sense 3 ROMs, but efforts to port to 3.5 failed as they completely redid the music app for that.
Going to temporarily roll back to Sense 3 for now, till 3.5 is fully debloated. Great ROM though, Pirate!

[APP] GSIII S-Voice

*This is not my idea, I'm just sharing it. Head on over to the original thread where I saw this for some more information/support!
Some of you guys may have already seen this one but here it is for those who haven't.
Basically this is the .apk for Samsung's S-Voice taken form the leaked rom of the up-and-coming Galaxy SIII. S-Voice is supposed to be samsung's answer to Siri - but some people have reported that in reality it is just a skinned Vlingo with a couple of extra features!.
To install it:
move it to /system/app (Either by using Root explorer/ES file explorer or adb push voicetalk /system/app)
Change permissions to rw r-- r-- using Root explorer/ES file explorer
Go to build.prop and chnage ro.product.model & ro.product.device to GT-19300
Reboot
Go to /system/app and click on the voicetalk.apk and install like a normal sideload app
Note:
This is for ICS only and I have only tested it on Lord Clockans Ice Cold Sandwich 7.5 Test 9.
You need a data connection for it to work
Links:
S-Voice download link here

Good for you!Thanks for sharing.
only ICS?
im trying now on GB. i hope it will work...
EDIT:
i get error "There is a problem parsing the package." when opening the APK. happen also with other downloads.
because of GB or another problem?

Seemingly it'll only work on ICS. Hence the parse error.
EDIT: Trying it on SenseMOD FlashONE v1.3.1. Although it has installed and went through the tutorial, it now just FC's as soon as i try to open it. I'll see if it's any better after a reboot.
EDIT2: No luck. Still FC's immediately after starting.
It's a problem with the lcd density I think because it doesn't work at 240 it works better at 190 but still had force closes it works flawlessly at 160 though and I would love to keep it there if it weren't for the phone APK bug on ice cold
So piece of advice lower your lcd density but this may be problematic on sense roms of course

Here's me running it at 160dpi. The application still has a lot of room of improvement its not anywhere near as good as siri - I haven't tried siri myself! - and it really struggled to pick up my thick Scottish accent. I this could be a problem of the DHD because my brothers evo 3d and my galaxy tab do a much better job at understanding me
First a tried asking it the weather for London and after only 2 tries it got it right!
Then I tried setting an alarm up for 6am it could only get pm instead and after many tries I thought I'd just stick with pm and see what happens, you as you can see it understands what I meant but obviously I wasn't surprised when it couldn't figure out how to actually put an alarm on
Anyway I won't run the whole surprise for you and I'll let you check it out yourself!

Another quick look through the instructions shows that you need to chnage your build.prop to appear as thou you have a GSIII. Although this is easy enough some newer users may find it quite confusing. I thought its probably best just to link to the original thread because there will be a better support over there.

Yeah, Ive had it on my deodexed .621/.605 rooted droid x for about 6 hrs now, its running smooth and in all honesty its the best ROM Ive ever used as far a WIFI connection goes. Every one I know that has the OG droid X had WiFi prob's including me, it always dropped you for no reason or on some Roms it wouldn't connect at all but I haven't dropped once since Ive been running this. I dont know what Kiladar did to this but whatever it is my WiFi is scared to break connection. :goodThanks BTW Kiladar):good:
As far as the rest of the Rom, it runs smooth and everything Ive opened or tried is working like a charm, the only thing that ive run across that doesnt work so good is the themes from theme chooser. It has a problem resizing the theme for my screen size but I dont think thats the Roms fault. You can still use them but not all of them will fit correctly (not so bad if you dont get the ones with writing on the background) I will see about getting you some screen shots when I have access to a camera. my GF is out of town at the moment and I dont have a way to take any pics but maybe ill try the mirror method and see if that comes out clear enough.
If you hold the power button you can take a screenshot from there just an fyi

Check your phone now! Android Device Manager

Go into System Settings--->More--->Security--->Device Administrators and check to see if you have the new "Android Device Manager". I just got it today, never got notified of an update or anything... it just *appeared* there outta nowhere lol.
Here is a link to show you what it can do.
It is what it says it is, you can manage your device if it gets stolen or lost and remotely wipe it from the comfort of your own home/computer. There are a lot of 3rd party apps that do this (both paid and free) but it's always nice to see Google integrate this into our devices!
there for me as well, never look there so idk for how long/when.
Holy shizzz! Thanks a ton for this contribution. Never realized it or heard of it.
I tried the location feature, worked like a charm. I tried Ring but that didn't work.

Got it yesterday on my S4 and N7, ring and location works on both. Cool!
Hmm.. I have it on my HTC One GE as well. No idea when it came through.

Something similar. Is the Cerberus app worth it?

thats the thing, it depends on remotely going into stock recovery to wipe the device, us rooted users may not be able to wipe
It was very buggy at first. Wouldn't even locate my device.

Try it!!!
I went ahead and tested it all out. The remote location works great, ring worked and remote wipe worked. Very cool stuff! This was with a converted HTC One to the GE.
Strange I cant get this to work with the phone but my tablet was fin (both rooted) I did disabled a few things from google framework tweaks, not sure if that's the reason.
They are doing a slow rollout. Maybe it hasn't been updated yet.

Yes it is worth it. They have a flashable zip that survives a factory reset. Its just a few euros and you can run it on 5 devices no matter which Google account is used.

I have it and everything is working. I'm rooted w/Blu Kuban mf9.

The only way this works is if you keep data on. If you turn it off for whatever reason this service is pretty much null and void since you need an active data signal for this to work.
Does not work for me. Rooted/rebooted and I have the function, but it will not find my phone, ring, etc. I'll keep trying.
i have two phones and both appear on google play but it will only allow me to probe the first phone. changed the "visibility" to "show in menus" setting on google play, didn't make a difference.
edit: found this but i don't have that arrow option to select the other phone. anyone else?
Setting works on both our SGS4's. One rooted stock, one stock. Obviously didn't try wipe. TWRP on rooted so I'm sure it wouldn't work anyway. Nice feature, but you still can't beat Cerberus!

I created a Tasker activity to turn on data and gps when it receives a text with a certain message in it. It also marks it as read, deletes it, and locks the screen. I can post it if you want.

Growl V5 for Galaxy Exhibit 4G

AOIP meets Growl = The Best of Both ROMs​
This is a port of Jb 4.3.1 Growl v5 (DarkLiquid/Smooth/Gaming/Battery) Samsung Galaxy W i8150 by @ipromeh, I am using @camcory’s Team Insomnia AOIP 2.0 (4.3) alpha for Galaxy Exhibit SGH-T679 as base. I didn’t make too many changes to the ROMs as i like to give credits to the original Developers, they put so much time and efforts to gives this, Thank you
This ROM has the Camera and Gallery working with no freezes
Everything else works from the original ROMs
Installation:
Please Backup your ROM using either TWRP or CWM (i use both)
Wipe Data, Cache…etc 3rd time is always a charm
Install Growl_AOIP_4.3.1.zip (If you have a better name please let me know)
Install Google Apps for JB 4.3
Reboot and give the phone few minutes to boot
Enjoy

PS. I am still figuring out how to use tiny/short url names
Issue 1:
Google play store stuck on downloading... working on fix.
congrats!!
congrats. AOIP before growl sounds a lot better imo. Anyways got a busy weekend ahead but when I get time I'll check it out and let ya know how it holds up.
Tried to download, but the dropbox link says it's empty...
Hi op thanks to you and the Devs for great work.
I am also unable to download, it seems like URL is incorrect. Please verify.
Thanks

Sorry about that, I am trying to fix the link. New link in few mins
Nandroided my setup and checking this out for the hell of it. I'll report back when I get an idea of how this performs. Love the boot animation!
Far as a name change, how about "GNAoIP" (keep the "O" lowercase and "gnaw" on AOIP instead of "growl" which is harder to incorporate into one name with AOIP). Noticed the notification drawer FC fix isn't included, so anybody using this ROM will need it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46284485&postcount=1327
which gapps file do I need to download? the link takes me to a list. a filename would be great. thank you.

the link has several jb gapps, none of which state 4.3 specifically. I have three already, but when I tried one, the newest one I had, it clearly was not the correct one. rather than go down the list, trying jb gapps until I find the right one, I thought s question was justified.

Well I have to say this is pretty stable and fairly fast. Unfortunately some minor annoyances are too much for me, and the sad thing is it has nothing to do with the ROM but the android version I'm sure. Latest Viper works but doesn't play well with 4.3 IMO. You can get it to work with your music players but you can't get it to work with system sounds at all. So if this app is controlling sound you won't hear any notifications/ringtones unless you turn the app off. Tried a million things but nothing changes that situation. The other problem is that ad blockers like the one @BSDgeek_Jake comes out with don't work, although maybe Crossbreeder could do the trick but it is really for 4.2. The developer has been working on a 4.3 update for 3 months. This is what is so frustrating when new android OS are released, it takes FOREVER for everything else to catch up.
Anyway nice work porting this and anybody who doesn't need some of the things I need would be pretty happy using this ROM.

I am a noob, so I will, on occasion, ask noobish questions. what seems obvious to you wasn't so clear to me. thank you for the link. I look forward to trying it out. it will have to be pretty good, though, to beat out the other new rom we got today (I forget the name). this one's pretty nice.

Super Nexus is Tim's old ROM and it isn't being updated anymore, some people here are just discovering it for whatever reason.

back in the phone's glory days ahaha. btw did you get weird fc on the camera after flashing the settings fix for the rom?
For me everything works great, looks like a great and buttery ROM, however most of the market apps wouldn't download for me including Facebook, what's app, Google search update just to name the few. What happens is download would start for a spilt second you would see the download animation in status bar and then stops right away. Play store would show that's it trying to download forever with no result. Please help.
I have reinstalled ROM, cleared play store and download manager app restated tons of time with no luck. Thanks in advance for your help.

I am having the same problem, I am trying different combinations of files to see if that fixes it.
Maybe one of the Developers of Team Insomnia can assist us with some help to figure out what broke the play store.
@ArtfulDodger Thanks for the review, i always read your posts as they are straight to the point, I usually keep my installed ROMs the way they are, so i can say much.
Anyway, This is a try and i am sure thing will get better with time.

I had trouble with Play initially, same problem you all describe. I just hit stop on the downloads while in progress, then started them again. They downloaded fine after that. Weird but simple solution. BTW a fix for V4 may be incorporating it into the ROM. If you decide to just ask @zhuhang first.
Tried stopping and starting but no downloading of apps from playstore
