    Default Google Now .apk now working in ICS

    I just flashed it this morning. So far, it's running very stable and I've not noticed any particular strain on resources. Too early to tell if it's hitting my battery yet. Pretty cool. It needs better integration with installed apps, but that's under development from what I hear.

    Here's a link to the zip and instructions for installation. Took me about 5 minutes to complete and I'm an utter noob at flashing.

    After 24 hours with this, it appears to have little if any effect on my battery life. I'm digging it and can't wait for upgrades to app integration.

    Thanks to this post I went and downloaded the .apk on my GNote and it's tremendous.

    Very happy to have this great feature, makes a great phone even better!

    Installed this past weekend. Seems to run well. Only minor hang ups. I like it so far. The note is my first android phone. Had it since launch. Love it. Rooted and flashed for the first time this weekend. Not too difficult at all!

    Flashed it yesterday and notice two things:

    1. It is a little sluggish compared to my Nexus 7. Don't know if that is in part to the Nex 7 having a better processor than my Gnex or not.

    2. You can't exit Google now by hitting the back button. You have to hit the home button.

    Other than that, it works great. Minor issues and I love Google Now. Big thanks the Dev who made this possible. Now I want Google to add more cards! This is awesome and there are so many possible additions, I can't wait!!

    To get around the note being sluggish you need to root it and install Set CPU. Or some other program that can set.the minimum clock speed to something respectable.
