I don't understand your question. What are you trying to have tracked?

 

[Biggnaa20]

Never mind. I think you're asking about package tracking for Google Now. I thought that was going to be updated as a part of 4.2 which hasn't been pushed out yet.

Let me know if I'm incorrect.

No, it is not part of Android 4.2.. It was released alongside Android 4.2, but is available as an update to the google search app for Android 4.1.1+ devices.

Package tracking is a " card" in Google now. Which means it will scan your gmail for tracking info that has been emailed to you. If you look through all the cards in Google now you will actually see the card before it's even used. That is of coarse if you have the updated Google now. So as long as you get gmailed some sort of package tracking info Google now should automatically find it in your gmail and pull it up for you
