search suggestions


Recommended Posts

Posted

When entering text in the search box (in the home or in the browser) I'm sure that were offered Google suggestions (autocomplete).

Now (i have modaco 3.0) I noticed that this does not happen anymore, is it working for you?

I'm going to try a wipe to check, i'll post the result.

I've never had autocomplete in the search widget, but it works in the browser.

I get autocomplete 'suggestions' on the Google page in the browser, but that is handled by their website, and is the same on any sensible browser.

I'm on MCR3.0 and have never seen suggestions within the 'widget' or other phone search function. I just checked there, and nothing :)

I think it could be a figment of your imagination, as I don't remember seeing it at any point.

I'm talking about the search box that comes out pressing the search button.

I'm pretty sure to see the dropdown with suggestion and number of results in some cases, but i don't want to underestimate the power of my imagination...

Other reports?

When you press the search button it just takes you to the search widget, which definitely doesn't bring up suggestions. That said, I'm talking about the HTC search widget. Dunno about the standard Android one.

No on search text box that pops up after pressing the search button. Yes on browser. Not sure on original rom. Currently MCR3.0 with 1.91 kernel on UK orange Hero.

I've been given suggestions when using that box, but I don't think I ever got any on MCR... Now, however, I have a white box below just doing nothing as if it was supposed to give suggestions (not MCR - testing some other roms).

Just discovered I get suggestions in the browser when I push the hardware search key, but not found the widget suggestions as of yet. :)

I presume Paul hasn't removed anything to do with search, but don't feel like flashing stock just to check.

I have NEVER had suggestions on the search widget.

Are you talking about the home widget?

Ok, so seems that the box we get pressing the serach key in the browser is NOT the same that we get pressing the search button in the home or the widget one.

I've some kind of problem because also when i try it on browser I've no suggestion... rather the suggestion (that include the history) seems to stops at the first letter i've pressed (and I've wait a minute), see the attachment:

I can confirm that the android 1.6 search (box from search key and widget) suggest the result, further search the phone memory (tested lastest cyanogen on a htc magic).

Waiting our upgrade...

other search box, other problem:

in the program list (menu) the search button should filter the list, but on my device stops work some time ago: when i press the button the search box come out, then the phone vibrate and the box disappear.

today i've make it work, thinking the problem that stop this is the same on the browser, but I was wrong.

the application search seems to stop work when there is some application registered for the long pressure of the search button. I had two: appswipe and voice search, after uninstall both application search start to work normally

since voice search is part of MCR 2.7 and above, does this function is broken for all?
