i remember when Google Now in 2014 or 2013 was first released i praised its accuracy for voice input.... back then it didnt have a auto correct feature that attempted to correct what you say in the mic.
for example. i tired to ask google today using google assistant "is the Rock and roll Genre a real genre"
and it showed those EXACT WORDS then it suddenly changed to "is the rock and roll John roll over heel jonra"
so i asked it again "is the rock and roll genre a real genre"
and this time it corrected it to"is the rock and roll genre of real drama"
so then i said its probably just my imagination that google voice input was better on Android Jellybean 4.0
so i pulled out my older moto G 2013 and asked it the same question. it got it on its first try no problem.
so is there anyway to turn off this garbage auto correct thing? can i edit a system file in /root?
Wtf

As it is not yet published on the net by the time writing this post, I can't tell whats all new, since I need to explore it too.. however.. have fun ;-)
Trying to figure that out myself. Standby...
EDIT: after playing around for a few minutes, I don't notice anything different. I'd love to hear if anyone else finds anything, though.

Nope. "Failed to move application. System updates cannot be installed on external media."
The Australia Navi is my best guess, though I'm in the USA and can't confirm.
Had same issue at first (installation unsuccessful). So I uninstalled map updates from settings and installed again from the market. Worked!
New features were related to rating a place and getting more personalized search results. Also UI did feel snappier, imho
google hotpot maps 4.7

I had a weird phenomena. Checking under Apps i found 3 times the same instance of Google Maps 4.6 - that's why i went to the market to actually uninstall, and found myself with an upgrade available.

It starts tomorrow (Wednesday).

Some people have had theirs enabled a bit early, so it seems like there's a bit of a staged rollout. Don't freak out if yours isn't enabled first thing tomorrow morning, might take even a day or two.
Google Navigation now available in Australia. Tried it at 11:55pm last night as soon as the update was offered.

Google has started to distribute the firmware update to Android 4.1.2. The Jelly Bean update will be released in batches and not in one go, which is why some owners of a Nexus device have it already, while others still need to wait.
Many crucial innovations brings this Jelly Bean update but not with: As Jean Baptiste Queru (JBQ) known to 'Google Groups' was, is this is a "minor update", which is based on Android 4.1.1.
"Under the hood" but it should be some fixes for the user but is only now natively supported the so-called landscape mode is a major innovation: This allows to use the home screen can also across. Previously this was only indirectly, so additional software possible.
The update will be distributed over the air (OTA), the first thing is to follow the Google Tablet Nexus 7's turn to later updates for Galaxy Nexus, Motorola Xoom (U.S.) and Nexus S. Gives a precise schedule it to not just missing an official changelog. JBQ, however, has revealed that an internal change with a revision of the device (3G variant of the N7?) And is a new power management chip in context.
How 'T3N' writes, you can also force the update apparently that does not work, however, must necessarily: The steps are as follows: In the settings, choose from the point apps, go to "All" (far right) and the entry "Google services Framework" out. There pressed "Clear Data" and then leads you to the OTA update (Settings> About tablet> System updates) from (Note: We did not, however, the works).
The update, however, can also be flashed manually, how it works, says 'Android Police'. This version is recommended but not more, as the costs for a small update is well out of proportion.
Edit: Move to General pls.
Why did you post such news in Development?
I knew this yesterday. Do not post in development section.

Nothing new for me lol
I use Google Maps and always dl latest updates--
Under impression Maps is not rom specific
Am not on 4.2
My confusion is that some versions/roms give turn by turn directions with street/highway names and some just say take next right/left etc
Why?
Thanks in Advance for shedding any light on this--
A few months ago I flashed the lollipop soak test zip in my xt1031. Everything works buttery smooth and i couldn't be happier. The only problem i have is that OK Google has a few missing options. The "From Any Screen" option is missing. As well as the retrain voice option. How can i get the option back. Everything is up to date. All Google apps are installed and up to date. I found theories that say it was removed to help with battery and memory. I miss using the Hotword option. Has anyone else had this issue and been able to fix it?
This has been plaguing S6 users for a couple of weeks now. We thought it was limited to Samsung but perhaps not. It won't answer your question (since we have none yet) but the Google product forum has seen a vigourous discussion. As a new registrant here I am not allowed to post the URL but if you go to google product forums and look for

I've installed I think around 7 android headunits and every single one has had a Bluetooth phone app that was bad to use.
Last year I tried to find a better one, without luck.
Any recommendations?
Nope but is it an FYT based headunit - post Android system information including MCU version to understand what variant the unit might be and what bluetooth your device has.
FYI - Bluetooth is not standard in these units.

Oh that poster had no intention of helping you, they just couldn't wait to tell you that you had posted in the wrong forum.
As for bluetooth implimentation, other than changing the variable in config.txt's sys.fyt.bluetooth_type= entry. They may not be any more you can do.

Not sure what exact function you are missing, but I used this one to install my OBD scanner (Vlinker) that the head unit would not connect to.

No one could establish the unit to be FYT based on this post.
without that info recommending a configuration setting which is applicable only to FYT based units is just as useless. I request you stop making assumptions about my posts as you might be lacking prerequisite knowledge.
Knowing what the unit is, is everything. A cursory read thorough MTCD forums show just how misunderstood it is, and without my posts and reporting to moderators the forums quickly fill up with out of topic posts and the real development falling off.
If every new post started with, my unit is "ANDROID SYSTEM INFORMATION + MCU version" then those that actually know could recommend and not enter a tool like guessing game.
Would be great if you begun assisting too, if not, not a problem and if you don't like a post the report button is always available to you.
This is my last post on the matter with you.

For a hands-free bluetooth dialing app that works with FYT 7862 head units, I recommend the free "Voice Call Dialer" by ArtostoLab, which is available on the Google Play store. It allows you to say the name of the person in your contacts list that you want to call on your cell phone over the Bluetooth connection, and it confirms the contact's name by displaying it as it counts down from 3 seconds (you can configure this value) before it initiates the Bluetooth phone call.
Previously I used the Google Assistant to make calls, but when I upgraded my old PX5 to the Joying 7862 10.5 inch 1280x720 head unit I found that the only way I could get Google Assistant to make call using my voice was by setting the "Smallest Width" DPI value in the "Developers options" to a value of 596 or less, and using an older dialing app called "GVC Callhandlert 4 Joying" which is described here:
Joying forward dial requests from Google Voice
By replacing the old GVC dialing app with the Voice Call Dialer, I am now able to set my screen to full resolution, with the "Smallest Width" DPI value set to 720 DPI. I am not able to make a voice call _directly_ from Google Assistant, but I can tell Google Assistant "Voice Dialing", and then I can just say the name of the person I want it to call.
Edit: I had a typo in the open command, and the word "open" is optional.
