just installed this google now port for CM9 ( http://forum.xda-dev...d.php?t=1835199 ) however the voice recognition isnt that great, is this like an accent thing or is it just poor on the hardware/software?

I thought it already had Google Now installed. What's that bar at the top that says Google and has the Mic symbol that opens the Speak Now box then?

pray tell, where should I 'not see' SPN then? when I pull notification bar down, there is the name of my service provider on the bottom. I thought that was SPN but it seems I am wrong (but the name is there and it is correct)

Yeah, mine says Tesco

EDIT: By the way, after installing I noticed it had the phone number as 07235-something whereas mine is 07985. I managed to change it now but I thought it was a bit weird.

I seem to have a lot of trouble with Weather widgets. I've currently got News and Weather on my Home screen and that was working earlier but now just says Loading. Accuweather app is just showing a blank screen as well but wetter app is working. UK weather app just caused my phone to reboot after showing me a tip about widgets but that's always been very slow to open anyway so I'll probably delete that.

EDIT: After rebooting News and Weather widget still couldn't connect so I've switched to Accuweather now which seems to be OK.

I also got an error from Orbot starting transparent proxying. I'm using it in Select Apps mode rather than Tor Everything but News and Weather was selected so that probably explains that. Even though Orbot shows that I'm connected to the Tor network, Orweb shows that I'm not going through Tor. If I toggle Orbot off and On I get the same error again but then Orweb shows I'm going through Tor. News and Weather is working again now as well.

Also, how do I install Holo Launcher HD as system app, because at the moment I can't add Widgets from the Widgets tab, only by long press on desktop? If that's the only limitation it's probably not worth worrying about but are there any others?

CM9 (Or ICS) comes with Google Voice Search built-in. Not Google Now.
Google Now is more of a personal assistant, it's more like Siri.

Where is real problem with FM radio on CM9?  If kernel sources, patches and drivers are available and we can simply copy FMradio.apk to CM9, is it realy so hard work? Not enought time to do it? FM works same way with CM7 on Blade.

And sure, we realy use it.

good stuff! Waiting for your new build. ETA?

Same as with Andy/Newbie above ... I get unbearable sound during calls. It's not the volume - turning it up/down doesn't help. Switching between normal and speakerphone helps but its not often you want everyone else to hear your calls.

Other than that - very fine ROM.

(I do notice the web browser being force-closed sometime.. but can't seem to link it to any repeatable cause).

Great work - very thanksful .. I was very very frustrated with Vodafone. Nexus for me next time...

I'm still having RIL issues with R5, a random reboot once a day, 3G drops occasionally and never picks up when I leave a Wifi area. I wonder if i should look at re-flashing the RIL -
Is this contained in the original rom package (ie. will re-flashing the whole rom do this?)
I've only managed to find the stock rom RIL (ie B926 etc.) and I assume CM9 uses it's own RIL but I could be wrong.

[Buffalo Soldier]

Dazz is there a way to get DSP Manager working with any other app beside Apollo, cause on my Blade with CM7 and G300 with Infusion it was working just fine with everything except integrated radio??? Thanks...

[doveman]

Is there any way to change/disable the camera shutter sound. I wouldn't mind if it was a normal shutter sound but it's some very loud and embarrassing plonk that sounds more suited to a children's toy!

[Feahnor]

Is exposure compensation working? I tried to use it with no success.

[CHINCB]

I am also interested in DUAL boot...

[22point8]

Triple boot windows phone

[Gippox]

In the R5 version i may have found a little bug, on my phone.
Do not operate the system sounds including sound pressure on the keyboard (android and swiftkey)

However fantastic rom, i love it

[ovecka]

Kind of impressive, isn't it?
