new google maps - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How does an itinerary look on your note with the new gmap?
For me half of the screen on the left is covered by the list of directions, leaving only the half right visible.
Is it normal? Totally useless...

I can't believe there's no one using gmaps here or at least willing to drop a couple of lines to confirm.
Thanks anyway.

I just tried it. And I thought it was going to be great until I tried to exit out of the box on the left so as to see the map. when you hit the X you can no longer see the map WTF.

If you could just close the itinerary it would be fine. But as it is it sucks.

well it seems it's a general complain...
- the directions take half of the space
- no way to use intermediate stops
- no more my maps
- if someone creates an itinerary with intermediate steps in OLD version of web gmap and you try to open it on the tablet, the intermediary steps are ignored
- if someone creates an itinerary with intermediate steps in NEW version of web gmap and you try to open it on the tablet, it open the browser and not the map

Wifi problem

is there way to prevent the wifi from turning off every time the screen goes off.
Not so far as we know, yet. However, there *is* a search button, which would let you find the many instances of people asking exactly this question...

LOL yep, you're right.
That said, Google and Bing both do a just fine job of indexing this site (arguably better than the built-in search tool) and have the bonus of, unless you specify site:xda-developers.com, also searching the rest of the web...

Ideas to get google now working?

I'm sure many of you have seen this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1749045
I was wondering if anyone had an idea on how to get this working on a sense based rom?

Have you tried it out yet? I'm gonna give it a shot right now and see what kind of results I get.

Well! That was interesting, and certainly we have some hope for our Sense ROMs.
The installation process went flawlessly, and I was able to add the Google Search widget from JellyBean. And it works! Well, mostly. The Voice Search doesn't work. When you go into the app and hit the microphone icon, it beeps and immediately tells me "sorry, didn't catch that." I'm going to try and update my Voice Search app to the JellyBean one, although now I'm venturing off the beaten path.
I'm not really sure how the rest of Google Now is supposed to work, so I can't yet verify how much of this is working and how much isn't.
---------- Post added at 03:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:30 PM ----------
Alright, I've got Google Now working on CleanROM 4.0SE!
Voice Search is broken, and some other things, but that's the same story for other users, even on AOSP.
To get it working, go here and follow the instructions in the first post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28226043&postcount=1 (same link as OP)
Then, in the same thread, jump to page 15 and follow the instructions in the second post down, #142 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28234189&postcount=142)
Nice find!
EDIT: A more active thread is in the Development forum, for anyone who's stumbled upon this.
awesome work man, appreciate you trying it out and everything. I was at work and didn't really have time to mess around with it at the time

soonr scribble

OK so I have messed with this for like 2 hours!! How do I use it?? I downloaded some PDF files to my note but I have no idea how to. Annotate to them. Only option I have to open it is still Polaris. How can I add to soonr to annotate it??
Its insanely confusing but during a long meeting yesterday I finally figured it out!
Install dropbox (as an example since I keep most of my documents on dropbox)
On the left side click the vertical elipse (next to the big + button) and select the upload option. It lets you chose from some of the applications (I always pick dropbox but you can get it from other places also). Once upload is complete you just select the file on the left pane and press the button that looks like fullscreen. That will let you edits things with the pen on the document.

Apparently i am stupid. If you go to Soonr.com you can sign up for a workplace and upload files from your computer directly.

Perfect, thank you! Dont know why all of the negitive comments on this app? If you need to batch rename, this is the app.
Re.* does not seem very intuitive to me. Took a quick look and don't see how it works as you don't seem to be able to select files to rename or I'm missing something.
Total Commander is a nice free app, but because of it's power, and it can be a little daunting.

I don't believe you can selectivly choose files. If you can, I cant find the option. I deal with many files in one folder, rename and move to a customer folder, therfore it works for me fine.

Doesn't seem to do anything on my G2. GUI etc works I suppose, but doesn't do anything to TV, DirecTV etc.
If I hold the IR sensor before a camera I can see that there is something sending.. I will have a look on it today again.
I've fixed the problem! It's now working.

How does this fare on Aosp roms?
You need to test it. You defenitly need to install a Quickremote SDK but anyway. For me it wasn't working because the SDK I used wasn't able to send raw IR pattern..
You need to test it and if it doesn't work search for a SDK that support it. (I didn't find one so I'm back on stock) [emoji53]
Is there an updated link for the fixed apk? Would like to try this out
It's the same link like before

Yep, I did a quick test on my DirecTV box and it toggled power. Now to figure out how to actually use it.. I guess you draw your own layouts, plugging in available buttons. I haven't looked beyond the raw database yet.

I guess I must be stupid but I cant figure out how to do anything except send a code from the list. Can't make a layout, and not quite sure how the HTML thing works.
