Here is Google Now for armv6 devices running ice cream sandwich, which I found HERE all credit goes to the developer on that thread.
I've tested it on ADLX's port of Cyanogenmod 9, and it does work. However, it works differently than it would on a Jelly Bean device.
Issues:
The realtime "voice typing" doesn't work, it won't even try and listen to you speaking! - Workaround is to install an APP which uses "Voice Search" from google play (details below)
Sometimes the web results comes up blank - Workaround is to force stop Google Search and it's fixed (until it does it again)
Installation:
Flash THIS in Clockworkmod Recovery
Reboot
Install THIS app to use the voice search feature
Enjoy
To use the voice search, you need to open the "Voice Search For Google Now" app which you installed on step 3. NOT Google Now.
Also after speaking, you will need to press the "Enter" key on the keyboard to complete the voice search
It's not perfect, but it's definitely better than the stock ICS google search, with or without voice search
UPDATE: Also works on CM10!
Awesome! I'll link to that in the OP+1 (First comment) of the CM9 thread
More details on what version of Clockworkmod that is, and what's changed about it would be nice, but otherwise, good work!

Adlx's port, version 5.2.0.8
and I'm not the developer of it, so I don't know what's changed, I'd go to the official thread for that
Flashed on my Chacha with CM9, works like a charm, Thx

New link for the GoogleNowVoiceSearch.apk please
Hey all,
I'd post this in the EOS4 JB Rom thread, but I'm not allowed to...yet. After the latest Google Search update, the entire function causes the app to simply shut down....whether Google Now is enabled or not. If I uninstall the update, all works normally...with Google Now enabled or not.
Believe it or not, I actually like having the google bar up top there for quick use. For now, I've set it in Google Play to not automatically update. Is this a known issue for EOS4 users?
Thanks!
This was a bug for a while, and was in the bug workarounds in Tim's second post until the bug was squished.
It has re-appeared with the update.
Go to Settings - Language & Input - Speech - Voice Search - Hotword Detection (untick box).
This works with the latest Google Search updates.

Thank's frederuco! I never had a problem with Google Search/Now when I initially went to EOS4, so that's probably why I was a bit obtuse to the original bug.
(cross-posted from Galaxy S4 board because this may be a more appropriate area)
I wanted the old, ICS style google search where you tap on the widget, type, and are taken straight to your browser.
I downloaded a googlequickboxsearch.apk, changed permissions to rw-r-r, and installed to system/app, then i removed velvet.apk (the jellybean google search app) & rebooted.
Upon restart, it mostly works- i can click on the widget and type straight to my browser. But, the voice search does not appear to work now. When i click on the mic (on the search widget) most of the time some text pops up saying "app not installed", but sometimes it will direct me to the play store to download the app.
The play store shows voice search as "installed", yet when i click on it's entry from the play store there is no option to open/update/uninstall.
To remedy this, I tried to install voicesearch.apk 2.1.4 (i believe this is the latest version) into system/app, but it will not install.
Can someone please help me with this? I really prefer the old ICS style search (as i have no use for Google Now) but also dont wan to gimp the search functionality of my phone either. Thanks
sorry if bumping isn't allowed, i've been googling this all day and cant figure it out
I havent facing the issues before
Today I update to the latest version of Google Search 3.4.16 it will fc but use bundle voice recognization there where no wrong
What is the reason cause this problem??
Are you serious? You create fixes but can't post in the right forum?
Sent from my OmniROM-powered LG Optimus 4X HD
The fix is work(which I posted in omni discussion already)
(but that is not my main point in this thread....)
Current situation is...
My Problem is after applying the fix and updating to the latest version of both google search and google now launcher.it will fc when you doing the voice search using google search apk
not working when you updated to the latest version of google search 3.4.16 (so we can't update it.... otherwise will get fc always....)
Before that even I have been flashed the non-neon gapps or self-modified gapps package I still can update both laucher and search to the latest version through google play store and nothing error happen)
On the other hand, due to lack with my knowledge,
I can't do to much modified of the apps,We need genius guys to help us for fixing it completely(just like you)....
I still don't know why it will fc....(the wearied thing is if you are using voice search in google search widgets the,google search voice recognization still can recognize our voice and the words but after a few second it will terminated or saying google search has been stop working cannot show the search page directly )
if you are using keyboard to activated the voice typing or other apps (google play voice search area) related to the google search voice recognize,it will not get any fc and working properly
I have try many method(replace all lib which using by google search with non neon,pa gapps lib,change apk)
it only work on not doing updating also the apps should stay at the factory default(uninstall any update)
Here is my Logcat
Adam hope you can give me some clue on how to fix...
[Fixed Guide] How to Fix v3.4< of Google Now/Voice Search FC on SGR Kitkat 4.4
As everyone know our devices has been lack of neon support
which create huge trouble on media support
After discovering many times.
I have found the solution on fixing the google search fc on Now/Voice Search
Steps:
1.Uninstall all the google search updates
(you could deleted all it's data after uninstalling)
2.Update from the play store
3.Open the google apps.
4.this time it will asking you to turn on the google now
don't enable it,tap on skip.
5.Doing a voice search,it should be fine.
6.if yes open google setting/search setting(you could tap the hamburger menu to open setting)
7.Tap on the voice
8.enable the bluetooth headset option
remarks:this option should not be disable in order to correct the fc)
9.return to the google apps,and enable google now
10.doing an google nows voice command through voice search,
and you should receive your result correctly without fc
if it solved,we could prepare for android 5
