A few days ago, Google Now decided to stop searching nearby places when I asked it to "call [nearby place]." The recognition engine would show me the *correct* text, but then it would proceed to call someone from my contact list that sounded closest to what I had searched. If I rephrased, and said "call [nearby place] in [my city]", I could sometimes get it to work. However, it had become increasingly problematic. I found a quick fix, and while most of you can probably figure out what it is, I'll post for the benefit of those who are having similar problems.
1. Settings, Apps, Downloaded. Go to Google Search (if you don't have this entry, this may be part of your problem!)
2. Clear data. Don't worry, you won't lose any information on cards, etc.
3. Reboot
If you're having this issue, hope this works for you!
