[Q] How to use Google Now on LANIGHT v4.2 DATADATA

[tonitron1]

Hi,

I just flashed the LANIGHT v4.2 DATADATA ROM from the Captivate Android development thread, and everything is working great, but I can't figure out how to work Google Now. I did a search on the thread and it said the search button is mapped to Google Now, but when I press the search button, nothing happens. No search or Google now or anything pops up.

I hope I'm posting this in the right section. If anybody can help me out that would be great. Thank you very much.

I'm using slimbean 2.4 and the button mapping has been changed to holding the menu button. Try that and see if that works.

Hey thanks for the reply, but it seems it still doesn't work. I'm not sure if the LANIGHT version uses that mapping. Is there supposed to be an app called Google Now if I go into the settings and apps menu? My ROM seems pretty basic, I don't even have any sounds to choose from.

Do you have Google Search installed? I don't think that it is included in the rom. If not head over to the play store and download it. Let me know if that helped?

No, I don't have Google Search installed. I was wondering why there was no search bar in my Home screen. I hope this will work, I'll try it now, thanks for the advice!
