Help Address Recognition after ICS Update

mmarino77 · Oct 29, 2012

I just recently updated to ICS on my Droid Bionic and everything is great except that address recognition is no longer working.

For example, if I had an address in the notes section of a meeting request, prior to ICS, I could open the meeting, tap the address, and that would trigger options for Navigation/Directions. Same concept worked in an email as well.

The address format that used to work and no longer works is:

1000 Main St.
Denver, CO 80124

Has anyone run into this? Of course, I'm open to any suggestions too.

Thanks.

I haven't tried this, but isn't that one of the Lawsuits that Apple won against Android?

**EDIT** I should have done this before posting, but just sent myself an e-mail with an address in it and it was hot and when I tapped on it, it called up a selection box listing CoPilot or Maps. So evidently it does work.

Thanks for the reply. I'm not sure about the lawsuit. I just tried again using both Gmail and the native email app and no luck with the address being "hot". I wonder if there's a setting somewhere - I looked at almost every setup option but didn't see anything related to this issue.

I just tested this with my G-mail and it worked flawlessly. not sure about what settings you would need, I did not fiddle with anything.
