search button fires up

hey guys, I know this is a known issue, but I can't take it anymore, I literally can't use 3g, because the voice button activates itself all the time, I'm using it, I don't know if I should send it, to warranty, because this is clearly a bug... I need some advice please.
BTW my nexus s is rooted, I've tried also all the roms available and still got the same issue. help
Have you flashed a different radio? It is a known issue with the 9020A.

- adb push iPad2post.apk to /forum/thread
gonna try that see whats up thanks.
Been waiting months for a fix. KB3 modem is the best in regards to minimizing the problem. Also, cyanogen nightly (7.1) has the option to map the short and long press of the search to "nothing".
There is also a paid app, i think it's called "search nothingness" or something along those lines that can remap the search to nothing.
personally with KB3, i rarely get the issue, usually only during GPS navigation. At home and at work, i have wifi, so 90% of the time, it's a non-issue.

It wouldn't be Android if it didn't have bugs. I'm just glad they're getting it fixed.

I hope this also fixes my issue with Home and Back buttons getting stuck in "long press."
Yea what a joke. I updated the radio to "fix" my search button issue. Oh it fixes it but also brings capped data speeds and no modifying the ro.ril aka build.prop doesn't help. So sacrifice speed for annoyance depletion or keep the raw dog and risk throwing you're phone out the window at 70 on the interstate!!!! Lol it fixes it. No we just have to fix the data caps again.

I understand the update has been pulled because it caused more problems then it fixed. A new update ifs reported to be released in the next two Weeks, though that is not 100% confirmed.

Its not a huge problem for me. I get great reception almost everywhere I go except for some basements and at work.
I can't take calls while at work so its not a problem.

I had the bug, installed 2.3.6 and it's gone. No more random firing of the search button. My only new bug is that my gmail application Outbox count won't work properly. Even when it's empty it shows a number.
If I reset the application and clear it's data it starts up again with the issue.

Hey guys I didn't want to start another thread so I'm continuing this post.
I'm still noticing the search button bug (Firing randomly) in low reception areas.
Currently I'm running the ICS OTA 4.0.3 with UCKF1 radio on the i9020a.
Is anyone else still seeing this bug from time to time? Did anyone find a way to fix completely? If so please share you solution, if not share your stories. Thanks guys.
I have the i9020a and mine had the annoying bug as well except it was the home button firing with recent apps coming up all the time. I have updated to 4.0.3 from the t-mobile version and flashed the ucke1 radio and have not hae the problem since. In fact I have not run into any problems yet.

Hmm OK ill try that radio, right now I'm reflashed kb3 and I'm going to see if that makes a difference.

Hey there. I had the problem with my nexus s in low signal areas too. Try using the phone info code, *#*#4636#*#*, go to phone, use the menu to reselect the radio bands.

I got into those settings and I'm assuming ur talking preferred network settings. There is a lot of things to choose from, what should it be set at?

If you get the search bug with 2.3.6, send your phone in to get the screen replaced. Also keep in mind that the current ota of ics is NOT for the i9020a

[Q] SkyRoam's Gmate

Anybody has tried this little gizmo?
http://www.skyroam.com/index.php
I'm very interested, but I'm nor eager to spend 50+ € and discover it doesn't work with our 'marvelous' BT stack...
I tried just the app, and it's hideous. You can't search contacts in any way, you need to scrool all you list to find them. But i think this thing could awesome with a decent app

hi all
wow, last post was still 2011.
anyways, just to give an update on gmate.
i am currently using gmate+ on my note 10.1
gmate+ is the newer one from the standard gmate.
true, there are still snags like the contacts, but it serves my purpose well, not to hold another phone just to receive incoming calls / sms.
so far so good, as i just got it this morning.
=)
Yes they are handy. I use one & is a great device.
Theres also an easy fix if it flags up as "non verified" (fix works on rooted phones).

Gmate+ and Sprint Galaxy Note 2
Does anyone know if the Gmate+ will work with the Galaxy Note 2? I want to use Truphone in Europe and they say the phone must be unlocked. Since the SIM is hardwired into the Sprint version the Gmate+ looks like a good option. However, Truephone says the phone must be unlocked. How do I tell if it is?
You dont need a network unlocked phone to use a Gmate+ obviously but for all the features it needs to be rooted.
The one im selling I tested on my Note & my Note2 & yes it works.
you need a rooted phone for all the features.
what's the fix? sounds cool would save me a rtm... atm.
You have a PM
Problem with Gmate +
Hi !
I just bought a new gmate+ from skyroam to use with my Galaxy Note 3.
But when trying to use it, I can't verify it ! It says "you need to be connected to internet to verify gmate..."
But I am, as everything else work well and every other app has access to internet.
I contacted skyroam support that said to me to use an android <4.1 for verifying gmate. (what a wonderful idea... Skyroam : what about fixing your bugs ???).
I tried with a 4.0.4 android device --> same problem !
I think Skyroam has stopped service that allow verification on their servers. So my new Gmate+ is a brick !
Anyone has an idea ?
Thank you !
I have sent you a PM.

As of now "16 people starred this issue"
Haven't been using CM for awhile, but was thinking of going back. Can't do it w/o bluetooth. Starred it.
Starred this. I tried Owain's zip on EB 2.3.7, BT music worked but no phone. Hope CM figures this out.

Starred as well, nice to know I'm not the only one with this issue like some developers have made it seem.
Good luck to us all, lol.
Have the issue but I couldn't find where to "star"it. Does it have to be done from a desktop or can you star it from teh phonez?

Should work from your phone too. Just login with your Google credentials then the option to star/comment will appear.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Something better than just starring an issue is to provide 'logcat's to help troubleshoot exactly what the problem is. Google for details on how to do it. Ideally comparison between a working BT call and a non-working BT call.

The option to star is sortof hidden at the bottom of the page on my phone.
Also, if you are not getting voice confirmations when voice dialing via bluetooth then I think we should star this: http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?can=1&start=0&num=100&q=voice%20confirmation&colspec=ID%20Type%20Status%20Version%20Model%20Network%20Owner%20Summary%20Stars%20Priority&groupby=&sort=&id=3636
I have starred this as well but am experiencing this with other roms as well... must be me.
The new bb causes all roms to have no bt except stock. You can down grade your bb and bt will be working again.
starred!

[Q] Paranoid Android BT Issue

I installed Paranoid Android on my Verizon GS3 and everything is fast, smooth, and awesome....except the bluetooth continuously disconnects. If I make a call when it's connected it will stay connected, but if it's connected but not on a call it will disconnect within 2 mins. Any ideas on whats causing this or how to fix it?
I'm in the same boat. Eventually, it will be patched.

Nexus 5 Incoming call

Hi everyone,
I have been reading this forum for well over a year and took the plunge into trying the Android L preview on my Nexus 5 32 GB. I am loving the way the software functions on my nexus 5 except i am having one issue. The phone i installed it on is a secoundary phone i have connected with sprint. When i am using the phone for a phone call and i get an incoming call I do not see who is calling and the phone doesn't show who is calling. Any ideas?

Go back to stable releases. It's a preview release, not a daily driver (though quite stable)
