Google Search - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Morning my friends,
I wake up noticing the search field on top of my screen disappearing, how do I bring it back. I cannot search for any of my contacts, the search engine or even voice search from top of the screen.

[SOLVED] xda app, posting: bug or stupidity

Please help me. I down'ed the xda app from the market, and installed (for the third time right now). I log in, my name's shown correct, but I can't find the "post" or "reply" button... even pressing the menu-button doesn't help. Is it probably because of the little white loading circle at the very bottom on the screen? tapping and holding a post gives me choice to "show author profile" or "send author pm". Me dumb or app buggy? (posting via mobile site, btw...)
aaah... first post is not possible via app... just checked back to the app, and there the buttons are

I get the same thing. How to disable the autohide feature in google?
disable instant search at the google search options
Tried that, it still does it.
Ive downloaded Dolphin HD
same issue on the google search page
set to iphone setting, issue sorted.
this is a bodge though, not a fix

Menu > settings > turn off/untick mobile view
restart browser = sorted

Ah, so I'm not the only one having this problem...
Picked up a new Incredible S over the weekend (my old Desire died on me ...). I just starting having this same problem yesterday and initially thought my Swype installation screwed something up. Odd that it only seems to affects the Google home page. For instance, if you're on the news.google.com page and type in the search box, all is fine...
I also tried using Dolphin browser but had the same problem.
Problem with Cirian75's solution is then you lose the benefit of viewing mobile formatted pages...
I think google has done something recently to its search page and its not the phones.
Same thing, and appeared only today and only on mobile Google search page. Browser thinks that's a password form and fills the input text with points. There's also no option to type in other than english.

so we agree, we think google has messed up the code on the mobile search page
Nothings wrong with the phones suddenly, its google mobile search page thats gone tits up.
Same problem, and it only started happening yesterday, Google must have done something

Seems to have been fixed today. Working fine with both swype and stock keyboard. Didn't change anything on my phone.

long press in a text box, select 'input method" and switch back to the original keyboard, then select input method again and switch back to swype.
Yup. All's working fine now. Weird...

I am rooted and using Cubed's ROM. The stock voice dialer has a hard time with my voice. Google's voice search seems to no issues with it. Can I replace the stock with Google's?

If you long press the search button on the bottom, is this what you need?

Not really, I have that already. I meant via bluetooth. My earpiece supports voice dialing and the stock app doesn't really work for me.

blutooth launch lets you do this download install, then open scroll to voice search and select the recognition box. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=836243

[Q] tapped back soft button 3 times from stock camera app

When I am in the camera app, i tapped the back soft key rapidly 3 times to exit camera app to go into my home screen. However it launches me into the google quick search.
This is not a major issue but juz like to know if anyone encounters this too. Software glitch or meant to be this way? I know that dragging from soft keys will bring us to quick search.

Do you mean Google Now? AKA Google Cards?
My phone does this and it did it on my Xperia T.
It does it in almost any situation where i hit the back button multiple times quickly and gets very annoying after a while!
Right. Sorry bout that. I meant Google Now. Apparently only happened in camera app. No prob with other app. And yes very irritating!

you can disable it . go into settings / applications choose all app tab and find google search apk uninstall updates and disable it and you will not have that issue anymore.
Thank you! That helped alot!

[Q] Stopping Google search on hardware button

Is there a way to turn off the Google search when you press a hardkey? I find my thumb hovering over the hard key and then it will just come up. Is there any way to turn it off?
Delete/disable Google Now

Well i have turned Google Now off, so the only thing that comes up is the search box that would have been google now window. I am asking where i would go to do that, i have searched all over the place in the menus and settings and can't seem to see where to turn it off at.
Go to Settings, search for apps icon , then select all apps. Find google search from that list and stop service and delete it.
