Google Now

[the gator]

Does anyone know why Google now no longer starts when you say Google, just started happening a few days ago

Still working for me and my GS4.

Fine here on an s3, my friends s4 is running fine with it as well. Maybe it's just you?

Mine doesn't because I disabled it a while back.

What I meant was mine stopped working for some unknown reason and if anyone had a fix for the problem.

Go to settings...application manager...all...Google search, the one with the blue box....clear data. Sometimes I need to remove widget from screen and then bring it back. Happens a lot lately. Hope that works.

Tried that still does not work, thank you for the suggestion.

Personally I would just roll back the Google app to the update before the one you're currently using. That's how I fix a lot of app problems (like the recent one for snapchat that ruined the camera)

Google Now is not an app but part of the operating system.

..... Have you looked at the Google app before? It's an add-on, an app. It's not built into the system. The Google app has Google now, that's where it is. Next time, and I'm not trying to be mean, look into what you're talking about. Yes it is a system app, but an app none the less. You should be able to roll it back

Exactly - it's part of the "Google Search" app.

My bad, I thought it was part of jellybean. Will try to roll back last update.
Update: just rolled it back, no luck, updated it again still no luck. But I did learn that it is part of the Google search, thanks

Uninstalling the update should solve the problem. If it does reinstall the updates and see if anything is broken. Let us know how things go.

Why did you disable it?

 

[STARGATE]

Why did you disable it?

I really don't have a use for it.
Why have it waste battery and consume resources if I'm not going to use it?

How much improvement in battery life did you get?

Uninstalling the updates did not help and reinstalling did not help might have to do a reset.

Yes, at this point just factory reset the phone.
