Google Search Crashes From Homescreen 132dpi

Is there any way to make the search work on anything other 160 dpi from the home screen?
My search works using voice but crashes automatically on 132dpi with the application has stopped working
Any thoughts?

There is a hacked Google Search apk out there that will run at non standard dpi... I used to use it but now with Google Now I got rid of it... but for the life if me I can't remember where I got it

[Q] Google Now not Working on KK

Hi I've tried searching but no answer found, although others have asked. Using Latest MacKay KK 4.1.1 and I am unable to use google now via swype from left. Voice search works. I think the issue is related to an issue I had on a 4.3 Rom where I had to uninstall updates from Google Search and then update via app but unable to do that on KK.
Any solutions?

you must log in in search settings with your Google Account.
then you can activate Google now with swype from left
this works only in the google launcher

As far as I can see I'm logged in. I'm using gel launcher but of I try to open the search app I get a network error. When I had this on 4.3 ROMs I could delete updated from search open search and then update. I'll check settings again and thanks for the reply

I've been researching this issue and it seems that it is also affecting some Nexus 5 users too, Google is apparently working on a fix. If I manage to get a solution I'll post it here

ok, i hope for you that google fix this, but i use Mackay 4.1.1 too and it works perfectly

It seems very hit and miss, some N5 users have the issue some don't it looks to be related to Google account settings

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dumz1opCfuE&feature=youtu.be Try this ROM. Google Now runs fine.

Found a fix of sorts; set up a new Google account on my phone in addition to my normal account and signed in to Google now using that. I read somewhere that there may be a problem with certain Google accounts causing this

Working Google Voice Search/ Google Now with NULL?

I have the Google search APK side-loaded onto my gear, but whenever I perform a search the app force closes out. Same thing happens when I use voice search. I attempted to install the Core Google services APK along with the Google Search APK, but MobileGo said the Core Services APK was already installed...
Has anyone been able to get Google Now/ Search working properly?
Thanks in advance!

Amen to that!
I use the Aroma Installer so much, it isn't even funny.

I have a Gear 2. Will this work on Tizen? If not, is there another option for Google searches on Tizen?

[app] stock 6.0 contacts and phone app with call blocking

well i havent seen this anywhere yet... so google decided to publish the phone and contacts app in the playstore and then pull them both the same day. im using the phone app (not the contacts app) now and it works great. i just installed it over the existing phone app. im running tmobile mra58x stock rooted. for those of you using custom roms or lollipop; make a backup of your rom and install as a regular apk and report if it works. but as far as i know this is for marshmallow only.
i found the apps here but ill post them below as well.
Instructions
1. make backup
2. download and install as regular apk
3. report back here if it works on your rom/version of android.

PSA: disabling stock dialer app in most roms will disable in call ui. We must keep both phone apps.

on pure nexus there was a zip that replaces both..
but its not working for some other roms

Contact app just went live again on play store

Dude, you're the man. Thank you so much. I love the call block feature. Btw, I took a gamble and didn't backup my rom. I just installed it over my stock dialer like you said and it works perfectly! Thanks again!

Did anybody else's nearby places search stop working on the dialer after this was pushed to the play store?

Guide for Google now without google launcher.

Hey,
I see lots of people has been asking about google now in there launcher and many people knows that how to solve it without magisk.
There is workaround which i want to share may be it helps somebody.
First you need to install nova launcher prime which you can get like from anywhere just google it and then install a small app called google now companion app which is only supported by nova.
there is also a magisk version available of companion app but it is for those who just dont have root and magisk so by this you can have google now without having google now launcher and you will get google now integrated to the best launcher.
Thank you.
And sorry for bad english.

you just double tap the screen and it goes into google now or you go into settings and put it on a different gesture. as standard swipe down opens evie launcher but i switched that to expand notifications so now it works like the built in launcher, swipe down anywhere to open notifications. you may also want to switch off launch assisstant on home button or use it for something else if you are using gesture navigation as the last thing you need is more ways to launch assisstant lol. you could put the google now on that though then you can swipe up for home and swipe up again for google now.

Exactly. The most valuable real estate on a phone is the home screen because you can go directly to an app with one touch. The second most valuable real estate is the screen to either side of home and if you have a paged dock, the dock to either side. By using a swipe to the feed you wipe out an entire screen of the second most valuable real estate on the phone just to access one app when you can get to that same app by simply tapping a 1X1 icon, using a gesture, etc. I never have figured out why people like the swipe to feed, it wasn't done for us, it was done because Google has research that showed most people will not venture further than one screen left or right of home. Make one of those the feed and they knew they would up their take. In terms of user interfaces it's a straight up loss for users who in no way benefit from the loss of that screen for one app. But whatever.
Lots of launchers have a feed swipe BTW, if you absolutely insist on making your phone less efficient by wasting that screen you don't have to limit yourself to Nova.
