Is anyone else experiencing problems with it? I'm on the Smooth ROM, and haven't had problems before today, it works on my phone, but not my Nexus 7. I can get directions and such, but a general search just hangs...
Same here. I think it must be a server side issue.
I think it is a Jelly Bean issue since my Bionic, ICS, responds with webpages on a general search. My N7 won't bring up webpages but will answer questions with a specific answer, like '50 milliliters in ounces'.

Well apparently from what Google said *called them* they don't know of this issue at all, and it HAS to be just me because i'm rooted. There are reports *I posted this before looking i'll be honest* of people on stock unrooted are having this problem too. I can search "pictures of penguins" and "directions to Subway" or "hot fetish asian porn" *lol joke*, and it'll work, but a vague search for "Conan the Barbarian" just hangs there *is a web search*
I'm having problems on my sensation and nexus 7. Thinking its server side
I did a force close and it was fine after that.

Did you get this sorted?
I've just flashed smoothrom v4.2 and when i try and open voice search, it force closes, not hanging, but a very quick force close.
Thanks

I am having the same issues completely stock. Errors pop up saying "Unfortunately, Google Search has Stopped" and even after force closing play services it is not fixed. Also when I try to report the error the report form crashes. I am running stock 4.3 not rooted or anything.

Hi guys,
Thought I'd share, does anyone else find the gmaps app force close when getting directions? it runs ok when I start it and after a couple of seconds after looking for directions the map itself goes blank and then the app shuts down. I tried clearing the apps data a cache but still the same.
Surprisingly (and I'm being ironic), this started after the ICS update.
Has anybody else been getting this? ASUS and google, this is for you!
Yes, I get this often. It's like the Gmail problem I also get sometimes.
Check out the Google Maps reviews on Google Play, the website version, filtered for ASUS Transformer TF101 owners only. Almost all of them are having these problems lately.
Same thing with Gmail. Filter the reviews for TF101 only and sort by newest first. Almost all reviews having problems with Gmail lately.
Count me in. Both apps work for awhile after a reboot then begin to do as described.
Same here. Google maps trying to find your gps location causes maps to blank then force close. Update after update still same issues. Asus email widget gets stuck without updating how many new emails etc. When in inbox just freezes and FC.
YOUTUBE is always flickering when you type to search.
I am using Megatron 1.04 CM9 build but don't think it is issue with rom. All this happened after ICS update. Asus and Google really ****ed up this OS upgrade. So many issues with their own OS and their OWN apps not integrating properly is just bad PR for both hardware and software. Makes one wonder if they bothered with any QA at all.
good point about the flickering Youtube app.. also, if you have your keyboard plugged in, when you hit space while typing in the search field, it skips through videos! seems as the space as a navi key overrides space as the space key, if this makes sense.. all of those are GOOGLE native apps and I just can't believe the bogus stuff ASUS and GOOGLE released and still have not fixed!
So I received my Nexus 7 on Monday and have consistently been having issues with Google Now. Basically, I cannot click on any of the search results. After rebooting the device, I can click the results and open in Chrome, maybe 3-4 times. After that 4th time, Google Now search results simply do not work (until I reboot the device).
I can see that the blue result is highlighted when I tap it, but Chrome does not open the link. I can +1 the results, and open links that don't open Chrome (for instance, the "did you mean..." will work, inside the Now application).
It is infuriating to not be able to use this core feature. I have even tried resetting the device (twice!). I am a US Customer, although I found in some searches that people outside of the US were having some issues.
I seem to have such an isolated problem that I cannot find anyone on the internet with the same issue. Is it just me? Is there something I am missing? Keep in mind, it works sometimes - so I don't believe it is setup incorrectly. Could the problem be with Chrome? I have cleared data on that application (in addition to resetting the device) but no luck.

I have the same problem, if I search in Chrome the links always work but sometimes when I search in Now they don't. Its intermittent and its working fine at the moment. It is very annoying. I thought it might be a symptom of the touch screen not working as has been reported elsewhere.
haven't looked this up yet, but would pushing the old apk from the 84D build restore all the features (pre-apple patent update)???
seems watered down on 4.1.1.

I've done some more troubleshooting and found out it is something wrong with my main Google account. I added my "back-up" google account to the nexus. I just turned off all sync options for it, but in Google Now I set the "back-up" as the account to use. Everything works fine every time! As soon as I switch to my main google account the problem comes right back.
I contacted google support this morning and they are going to look into my account to see if there is any corrupt data causing search issues.
Sadly, I already deleted all my web history thinking that something in there was the cause - it was not.
I will keep you posted.
Running stock 4.2.1, stock kernel.
Cleared cache and dalvik, rebooted back into rom.
Now Google Now force closes. If I clear data on "Google Search" app, and select not to enable Google Now, all is well.
As soon as I try to enable it, it crashes.
Tried fix permissions, didn't work.
Also disabled location settings, and allowed me to open google now.
Next I enabled settings, but only GPS. This worked as well.
Once I had GPS AND wifi, it crashed again.
Tried removing updates, restarting, clearing google framework data, etc.
What am I missing?
can't launch google now
I just started getting the same problem today. I can't launch the Google Search app without it immediately crashing (Unfortunately Google Search has stopped. Report / OK). If I reset data on the app I can launch it again until I turn on Google Now after which it crashes immediately again.
I'm on a stock Nexus 4, boot loader never been unlocked, not rooted, etc. I can't seem to find any other mentions of this problem anywhere.

Anyone else? I've been driving myself nuts trying to fix it!
Thinking of just dirty flashing stock again...
I'm pretty sure it's a server side problem with Google Now data that is causing the app to crash.

What I figured. Now I'm missing my Nexus 7 from the My Devices tab. Somethings going on. Just can't find any news/reports of it.
Yeah, I don't understand why nobody else is encountering this problem.
This thread is the only relevant result in web search.
There are 3 other people encountering the same issue on Google+ but I cannot post links because I just created this account.
Search for "google now crashes" on Google+ and you should see a few others with the same problem but no solutions.
My gs3 started doing fc'ing after I installed a new room. Hope it is something server side because I can't fix it.
Problem seems to have fixed itself.

I hope this isn't the wrong forum. This is my first post.
I have a Nexus 4 running Android 4.4.2 rooted. I have a few issues that I wonder if others are having. In chrome i have 'location unavailable'. GPS is turned on, but if I tap 'use precise location' nothing happens. Waze works, so my GPS is functioning.
Second issue is if I follow a link that wants to open my Wikipedia app, I get the message that Wikipedia has stopped functioning and it closes. I've had the same issue with a few other apps but Wikipedia happens all the time.
I had changed my runtime to ART. I switched back to Dalvik and same problems. I'm also using GEL. Are these known issues? If so is it due to 4.4 specifically or is it the GEL launcher? I hope it's not the launcher because I really like it.

All I can say is that it's NOT the launcher. When I switched to ART, the TImely app kept force closing. Regarding the wikipedia app, u can wait for an update
Have you enabled the google ocation report? If you haven't, maybe that's why chrome can't detect your location. Also try using high accuracy option.
I am on 7.1.1 beta build NMF26F. I am seeing some issues when scrolling within chrome, amazon app, google app. After searching for some results, when I try to scroll down the page, it automatically scrolls to the top of the page. No mater what I do, it doesn't go down the page. Only solution I found was to clear the app from recent tasks and open it again and start the search again. If lucky, it works else the same issue. Any one have any suggestions or tips? Did you guys see this issue? It has been happening since a month or so. Phone is not rooted or unlocked.

Actually there's an easy fix for that, paste this in chrome search bar and activate it
chrome://flags/#enable-scroll-anchoring

Tried that too but no luck. It's happening in other apps too. I was using chrome dev. Uninstalled that for now. So far no issues.
Try HEBF on play store
I just got a replacement brand new 6P because of the battery problems and the scrolling is perfectly smooth and fast on 7.1.1. With my old affected 6P it was poor and laggy. Not sure why or how this can be linked but that's the case.
