Google Search - Latest Update
v3.1.8
Changes:
It officially brings Search version 3 (3.1.8 to be exact) that shipped in KitKat to all devices running 4.1+. This includes an updated UI, new refresh animation, among other things.
Because Search houses the Google Experience Launcher (GEL) inside, this update also brings GEL to all devices running Android 4.1+. All you need to do after installing Search 3.1.8 is install the launcher app from here, and voila - GEL for all, not just KitKat devices. I have it running on 4.1, 4.3, and 4.4 on both phones and tablets, and it finally looks perfect.
As I mentioned above, 3.1.8 completely fixes the wonky GEL layout on tablets. As you may have seen yesterday, several things on the Nexus 7, for example, were out of whack - the keyboard was popping when you tapped Home, the icons were old, and the Search box was off-center. All fixed.
Remember: GEL does support transparency in the navigation and status bars, but you need KitKat for that to work. And Google disabled it system-wide on the Nexus 10.
New cards:
Website update card
News topic card
What to watch card
Traffic incidents using Waze on maps.
Recurring reminders.
Real-time scores for rugby teams
See when your packages are ready for in-store pickup.
You can now bring back dismissed cards by pressing Undo.

The APK is signed by Google and upgrades your existing app. The cryptographic signature guarantees that the file is safe to install and was not tampered with in any way. Rather than wait for Google to push this download to your devices, which can take days, download and install it just like any other APK.
File name: com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox-3.1.8.914827.arm.apk.
Version: 3.1.8 (Android 4.1+).

Once again, if you want GEL to work, install the launcher helper APK from here.

i think it is the short form of Google experience home

I received this update ON A on my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 edition. For me, the app has limited functionality because I use Google Apps for Business. Do you have any idea if the update now has all the same functionality for Google Apps accounts as it does for Gmail accounts?

Got my update to Google Play today, was very 'excited' about it and played around with it. No changes.
As I frequent the Android Market, I find the shortcut button on the top right hand corner of my motoblur app list very useful. But when I tried to click on the button to launch the Play Store just now, I got an error.

I do hope that this would be fixed by either Motorola or Google (since I don't put icons on my home screen).
EDIT: This has been fixed in the Google Play 3.4.7 update

Its going to be moto that have to fix it as they control motoblur.
On my phone when it updated my corner button just worked, even changed icon

I doubt motorola will do anything about it
When Google Search was updated, it caused problems to Motoblur as well. If you went into the app drawer and clicked on the search button, Motoblur would force close. And Motorola did nothing about it

So, a solution for the moment could be *don't update*, right? Or is the update mandatory?
just gained the update

Its the reason they changed there privacy policy, so they can have all your stuff in one place

And this is one of the reasons I don't use Motoblur's launcher, switched to ADW EX and its so much smoother. They will probably fix it in the next OTA, you may be able to find a modded launcher apk that has it fixed if its easy enough.
What's in this version:
You now have the Installed and All tabs you can swipe between. The former one is what we used to have before - it lists all apps installed on your device. The latter lists all apps you've ever installed in case you want to download them again or travel down the memory lane. This is quite handy, and I've seen this list before in the Play Store on the web, so it's great to get it here in the mobile app.
The All tab contains a handy dropdown with all your accounts (if you added more than one) and lets you switch between them very easily (as opposed to clicking Menu, etc).
A few of the stock apps that apparently never got linked to the Play Store before got identified and picked up this time, and updates to them were waiting for me when I fired the Store up. I've complained about this very bug in my last rant, and it looks like someone listened.
Mod version features:
Unlimited access to apps in Google Play Store
Removed countries restriction in Google Play Store
Fixed the issue which your device is not compatible with this item in Google Play

In 2012, Apollo became the official music app for CyanogenMod. It was beautiful, functional, and completely customizable, as you might expect from the world's most popular ROM. Today, Apollo is available on the Play Store.
The player comes in two flavors: regular, and +. Apollo+ removes ads and offers quicker updates for a mere $0.99. On the subject of future updates, there are a number of features that are promised to come soon, including tablet support, concert info, customizable widgets and notifications, and Google Dream support. For those wondering, gapless playback isn't a planned feature, it's a current one. Go to the source site and get the download links..
You can grab either the free Apollo or the $0.99 Apollo+ via the widgets below. If you're running CyanogenMod, the player probably came bundled as a stock app. If you want to install this one for whatever reason, you may need to disable the stock app in Settings, or live with two identical icons in your drawer.
I don't think Apollo+ is the same as Apollo in Cyanogenmod: according to the Play Store it works on Android 2.3 and has a different package id at least. I think CM users deserve Apollo+.

Well, this is looking like a scam, beggining with the web page, which is full of adverts and viruses.

This is not a widget within it's self. This is an extension to the widget Dashclock, you will need to have that (usually comes in Custom ROM's) in order to use this. Correct me if I am wrong OP as I haven't actually dl'ed this yet.
Hello everyone,
as requested, I added in the first post the link for the icons I used in my app Made them in mdpi, hdpi, xhdpi and xxhdpi

Great idea, works without any problems! :good:
Thanks!
Since the app is stable, I moved it as production, it should be available on the Play Store soon I will update the link as soon as it is available.

Google has begun rolling out version 5.0.31 of the Play Store that includes a visual overhaul with Material Design and some new layouts. The update leaked out a few weeks back and marked a significant, but welcome, change in the Google Play Store. It’s also an indicator that the launch of Android L is growing closer, as more and more apps continue to get updated to support the new Material Design standard. Google Play Store Material Design Screenshot
The Google Play Store now entirely follows Material Design with smooth animations, revised colors and larger, cleaner visuals. The icon has also been redone with a new design featuring shadows and the depth that we’ve come to know with Material Design. In terms of layout changes, the What’s New section has moved back up to the top of the description box and is highlighted in green. Aside from that, most things are the same aside from a refreshed design
Version: 5.0.31
How To Update:
Go to Play Store>Settings>Build Version(Select Twice)
Or Update Manually

The update does not work on android L
What can we do with the modded version guys?
Hi mates:
I have a Nexus 5 Android 4.4.4 I have downloaded this apk several times. Though it downloads fine, when it is installing, I cannot select the install button. The only option I am left with is the cancel button. I tried to download the file from my device and given that it failed, I tried to install Google Play Store 5.0.31 apk through Airdroid. Moreover, I tried to install it from Install from storage option but, the apk file is greyed. None of these options worked. The unknown sources option is checked, so I reckon this is not the issue.
I would appreciate if somebody my give me pointers towards a promptly solution.
Kindest regards.

1.Can use app protected with Google LVL (License Verification Library) without cracking
2.Verify license in offline mode
3.No need to patch with Lucky patcher any more
4.Can NOT download paid apps for FREE!
5.Disable self update
6.Not works with Billing and License Verification to Proxy
7.Button ‘Refund’ reworked! (When you press ‘Refund’ button, it refunds and does not uninstall the app. No need to make a backup before refund)
this is what modded google play can do
