This morning my phone notified me there was an update ready, when i allowed it i was warned it may change some settings, it has now installed and rebooted, i haven't noticed any changes. Does anyone here know what was updated ?

Could someone post the best settings for google now, i have looked at several sites but the more i read the more confused i get. Edit to add - See all settings in post #5

This is the big JB thing for me but it does come with a price, to get the full benefit you are going to have to let google know a lot about you. Is it a price you are willing to pay? http://tinyurl.com/8zr3b6g

This seems to be one of the biggest problems with the phone so far and no one seems to have the perfect solution, my fix (as you can see from my thread below) was to set the phone to Camera (PTP) from Device (MPT) but this does not work for everyone. If you are having problems or have found a...
