Hello....
I have a problem with Google Now........nothing is showing as cards, despite me sync my yahoo, hotmail and work email accounts, have all permissions set.
It's really strange but I have nothing showing as 'cards' and it's starting to annoy me.
Any thoughts, has anyone else had these issues? I just got my N7 today?

When it first came out, I remember people wouldn't see anything if their language was't set to U.S. English, or something like that.
Cheers I will try that.......bloody annoying
It now appears to have sprung into life
I can't seem to figure out how to add favorite teams to sports. Also it does seem cards only come up when they want to

They are populated based on your Google search results. You don't add them.
Sports only work during the season so e.g UK football (soccer) doesn't work yet.

Hey, so I can't seem to find an answer yet so I figured I'd just start a thread a pose the question.....
Since I've gotten my Epic I haven't been able to use the phones native myspace log in. It always tell me login failed try later. I tried it on stock and a number of custom roms and it all says the same thing. If I use the actual MySpace app everything connects just fine, I would just like to have that feature functioning too. Not a dealbreaker by any means, just a little annoying thats all.
If anyone can give me some advice as to potential fixes or if that's just something that hasn't worked at all, it would be appreciated.
Wow people, no responses? Am I the only one that has this problem or something?
Who even goes on myspace anymore? Lol

It could be Sprints proxy? Do a search on resetting your phones proxy settings.

yes. probably because you're the only one using Myspace
Yeah, I'm afraid myspace is dead...
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
still searching for an answer.....
Okay, so, while this is by no means a deal breaker nor am I going to have a fit if it doesn't work, giving me answers like "why does it matter myspace is dead" isn't exactly the most constructive way to address my situation. Like my momma used to say, if you don't have something good to say....you know the rest.
Anyway, I'm still actively looking for a solution to this. I called up Sprint (should've known better but I did anyway) and that got me no where. I fired off a message to MySpace support today so I guess they have up to 48 hours to respond according to their little blurb after you send a message.
If anyone has any CONSTRUCTIVE tips, I would greatly appreciate any feedback. I would like to have all the features on my phone working (I mean hell, why not?), and just cuz MySpace is dead for some, doesn't mean it's not still a viable network for others.
PS: That whole proxy settings thing someone suggested earlier....never found anything about that, don't know if that was a smoke screen or not but if not can you elaborate and possibly show me where you got that idea from?
In the Corporate (Exchange) mail. There is NO SEARCH button. I cannot find it on any menus either. I did download touchdown and am able to search in there but either I can't find it in the regular email program or it's a huge blunder by the Honeycomb team and they forgot to include one.
Sorry this has never been a feature of stock Android, ever. Not to say that it won't come, but they just haven't ever included it for whatever reason.
Pure speculation, but i think the search is missing because it would be restricted to messages downloaded to the xoom, missing anything residing on the server, reducing the usefulness of the search results.
For example, searching my gmail inbox from the mail app on my iphone never gives me anything past 10 recent emails.

You might try using K9 Mail. They just released an update to make it compatible with honeycomb albeit not optimized.
I have XOOM and will probably return it because of this problem. FYI the built in Apple IPAD email reader is able to search local exchange mail correctly. Also the IPAD reader has a very useful preview funciton that I am used to in exchange and neither the built in email reader nor touchdown have this feature. bummer!
not included in the first honeycomb OS update
Well, my xoom just received the update to prepare it for the 3/18 adobe flash download -- email search was not included in this upldate. I too really miss this feature.

Think "Software platform", and then go download K9, it's free, or buy Touchdown. One does not have to rely on stock apps.
@Bauxite ...
WRONG... vanilla froyo and gingerbread (as well as all versions before that i think?) have ALWAYS had stock email search capabilities as well as systemwide searching. have you ever looked at just about every android device with the harware spyglass button at the bottom??
whats up xoom/motorola/google? this could be a dealbreaker for most people including me.
no email search
Pretty poor coming from a company who is al about search.
Is there any update to this?
I have an ASUS Transformer and it is VERY annoying not to have search functionality in the browser. I use IMAP and not Exchange so I can't figure out how to make Touchdown work either (plus I would rather not pay money)
Fix this, Google!!
So for all of those who have tried out google drive, what do you think?
I have no issues dumping drop box but for now, I won't. It feels really clunky to me but I'm sure that will change over time.
My biggest beef with it right now, I can't select which folders to sync even though I picked a specific folder on the desktop G Drive app, it still shows up on android and there is no way to hide it. Very annoying that it syncs stuff that I don't want to see.
Secondly, I don't like how you can't save files from the G Drive app on android directly to the phone like you can with drop box. I use drop box heavily because I transfer files to and from my phone quite a bit (.zip files for flashing mods/tweaks/roms) This keeps me from having to plug in my phone every time I need to transfer files to and from my computer.
With G drive, I'm not able to do this. Unless I'm just overlooking it?
The first issue is just an annoyance, the second is a deal breaker for me.
I'll still use it for now but I'll still be utilizing drop box for the time being.
Anyone else have any thoughts on it?
I'd like to see the ability to auto upload pics like Dropbox has. This has saved me a few times!

Do you use google+ at all? I have that to auto sync all my pictures. Kind of redundant to use that feature for drop box so I don't.
I like to use G+ instead of drop box for folder because it automatically uploads it into picasa.
I still waiting on the email to say my Google Drive is ready.

G+/Picasa resizes them to 3MP (2048*1536) though, and with heavier compression too, you're losing a lot of detail if that's your only backup.
My problem with Google Drive is simple: I've never touched it, and only just heard about it yesterday, and yet somehow, mysteriously--nay, magically--it has appeared on my list of previously installed apps on the Play Store.
Screw that tactic, Google. You have the whole front page of the store to hawk your wares. Don't muddy my own library.

They transformed their google docs app to google drive. So if you already had the google docs app its logo changed and asks for an update

considering I have used G Docs regularly since 2004-2005, I really don't care what else they do to the Google Drive as long as they don't get rid of that basic functionality that they have always had and have done better than all competitors.
I do like the idea of uploading pictures, but do agree I would like it to be automatic like Dropbox. I realize G+ does it as well, but with pictures, especially if they are of children like 90% of mine are, can you have too many backups? I have my pictures uploaded everywhere.
It would be nice if all the Google products storage was all merged into drive. Access to your Picasa/google + photos, google music etc... just add all the space together.

I just replaced my dropbox with Gdrive,.. w/o having used it at all, just thought I'd trust good ol' google. I'm seeing some quirks so far when it comes to syncing folders as it is still showing "sync" icon next to some files when the tray icon actually states that the syncing is complete. Definitely dropbox performs better at this moment imo.
Im sure most of you read the news about hangouts now supports vzw mms or vzw finally supporting google voice... regardless, this is great news for me since my primary phone has being my Google voice for a long time.
I'm looking forward to a way of making hangouts being less laggy on the Note, if anyone was able to make it more smooth, please share.

Right... it is weird, it is very laggy on my wife's S5, was laggy on my S5. It is laggy on a G3 I have laying around and also on my Galaxy Tab S. I have a original Moto X and on the Moto X it isn't laggy... I'll keep an eye on the development of this issue, I have 2 year warranty anyway (and never keep a phone for that long) if it turns out to be a defective device I'll replace it.

Thanks for this! I've been giving out my Google Voice number for years and the whole MMS thing has been the one thing I hated about it.
I just tested with a friend who sent me a pic and it got shifted over to email. Not ideal, but since I get email on the phone too it's a lot better than it just disappearing into cyberspace.
I haven't integrated Hangouts with Voice yet so maybe that's why it got turned into an email. I've been hesitant to integrate the two. Does anyone know how to separate them again if I try it and don't like it?

I don't know how to separate them, never tried really but the reason you got the picture on an email is because the Google voice app doesn't support pictures, even back in the day when T-Mobile and Sprint were the only two supported for MMS I think it was received as an email.
Make the jump to hangouts and it will all work fine. By the way, when you switch it to hangouts, you'll have to forward your calls again to your Verizon phone # OR you can use the hangouts app to make and receive phone calls. The calls handled by hangouts are over WiFi or data, like VOIP

I did a search and couldn't find anyone having this problem with the nexus player. I am having issues purchasing TV episodes in the play store and get an error message. I have tried removing the account and signing in again and using different credit cards. I'm having this problem on both of my nexus players, so I've been having to purchase episodes on my phone.
The nexus player is not a very good product in my opinion. I've had endless problems with both of the players I purchased. The fire TV really is so much more pleasant to use. Eventually I would like to make a list of all the issues and small things that could be improved and send them to Google. Anyways, i apologize for the rant. Does anyone have any suggestions for fixing this problem with the purchasing error? Its been having this issue for two days now. Thanks for any help I can get.

Does anyone else have a problem with the NP not waking up from sleep mode? I'm not sure if that's whats happening, but when I get home from work after leaving the player on all day, my Tv says 'no signal' or 'no input connected' or something to that effect. The light is on on the player but I get nothing on the TV screen. Using the remote does not wake it up either. Its not the HDMI outlet because this doesn't happen to my fire TV when its connected to the same outlet. I know this is off topic but I didn't want to make another new thread. Does anyone else have this issue?
