Impossibru. We can't all be futuristic motherfuckers like you.
Same here, doesn't seem to work if your system language is set to English UK for the phone or Google now.WTF how are you guys getting these updates
this could be it but i've been on the same ROM track for at least a month (jellybelly for LTE)

9 miles? most of that must have been in Malls and the Sam's Club and Walmart parking lot...
i propose we start OT3 at 5000 posts. 20000 is overkill.

I might get my cousin to buy the 16 GB N4 and 32GB N7 from the US (I live in Au). Any idea if there is a particular store he might walk into on the 13th to buy it, or does it have to ordered via the play store?
Thing is, he's coming here on the 15th, so getting a phone delivered is out of the question.

I don't remember walking that much in October lol

Will be doing the same, just have to figure out whether I want to get rid of my S3 or just hold onto it to mess around with.
I've been flashing between Touchwiz and CM and it still showed me my miles for September and October.
Aaaah! I have English UK and that's why it's showing miles then. I changed to Italian and it's now showing in KM, and furthermore, it's showing me cycling distance!

Wait, is the ICS update for the Xperia U (is it an Xperia U or the P??)now available? The Try Before You Buy version we have in our store is still running Gingerbread. Which network did you get the phone from?
4.2 camera now includes working filters and Photosphere viewer. It's really nice.
They track everywhere you've been with your devices.
If you want to see something cool/freaky:

oh my god
That's pretty cool. But how does the phone know you walked from point A to point B as opposed to drove, took a taxi, whatever? I guess there is a bit of guesstimating going on...
Probably measures velocity and acceleration. Sort of the same way they determine traffic based on your phone.
yeah i would guess by the pace.
If I had to guess I would say that there is also some velocity reporting when it submits location information.
EDIT: Beaten.
I just checked and I don't have any location data from before July. Turns out I had automatic location reporting disabled in Maps.

My pedometer card told me I've bicycled 6 miles this month. Haven't been on a bike for years.
its xperia P and bought it from store in Saudi Arabia.Its the best budget phone.with great specs and great looks.Bought it for 1K sar.
For comparison One S is 2k and Samsung S2 is 1.5k. only Samsung Ace 2 has the same price
Don't know why Sony phones are not more popular

84 miles walking, 5 miles cycling.
Google Now is very cool.
Google Now is very cool.
Either you walk really fast or you drive very slowly?
you haven't had your tracking on for a while. I always had mine on because my wife and I use latitude for to/from work instead of always bugging each other about "when are you going to get home!"
69,536 miles traveled
156,086 more miles to the Moon
haha wow.
totally got my "At Home" time wrong though. Says I was only there 1 hour last week. I always leave my GPS on. Is there some other setting to turn on to make it more accurate??
I have the same issue. I believe it's because GPS don't work properly indoors it's using cell towers to triangulate my position, but as I have very bad coverage at home it switches from different towers all the time, thus messing up my position.
At least that's what I tell my g/f when she asks me why it looks like I don't sleep at home.
hah. Yea my at work time is actually pretty much right on, but home is way off.
Doesn't it automatically track if you have your GPS on/Location setting enabled w/ Google Now or something?
