As the title states my Google search is no longer working after the new update. The only way I can get it to work it to clear cache, data, and uninstall updates which will then revert the app to factory form. After doing all that the app works no issues but then the app updates itself and then i keep getting same error message every time I try to load it.. Anyone else have this issue? Running P6800 with JB 4.1.2. Thanks in advance.

I have the same issue. I read there are issues on some nexus devices. I think just wait for Google to release a fix.

Same here. Reverted to the previous version and waiting for the update with correction (hopefully),
I just did a phone reset hoping it would solve the issuebut nothing. Google just released a new update and still same problem.

Indeed, the release of 11/21 is no good either.
I have been looking all over the net and can't seem to find any info on this, Google hasn't even acknowledged there is something wrong. Maybe this is only affecting a very small number number of people.

Both Google Now / Search and Newsstand have been crashing on launch with the stock ROM. But on my other JB devices no such problem. I tried rooting this tablet. No change. Then I flashed the unofficial Cyanogenmod 10.1. That solved the problem.
My assumption: the Samsung stock ROM is the source of the problem.
What did I learn?
- My tablet is running smoother without all the Samsung crap. I should have done it even sooner!
- I will probably gravitate in the future to Nexus devices where the OS is not compromised by vendor-motivated overhead. And it's easier to get updates and custom ROMs.
- Because Samsung has not been fully cooperative with the developer community, ROMs often lack certain device drivers. (Another advantage for Nexus.)
If this motivates you to root and flash just be aware of two known deficiencies with the ROM I am using:
-no tethering
-once you turn off wifi you'll have to reboot to turn it on again.
(Thanks, Samsung for withholding wifi device drivers from the public.)
We shouldn't have to install custom roms in order for an app to work. I have tried to report the issue to Google but I have yet to receive feedback. I have flashed many roms and many of my Android devices but I longer wish to do so since no one rom is fully functional as it should, there will always be issues. I too may consider a Nexus device, but at the same time I have always liked Samsung and their products but this one issue with this app is a little annoying.

What I don't understand is that my wife's Note I I was able to update with no issues, her phone is running JB 4.1.2. I'm no tech or anything but I believe it may have something to with our tab itself.

After flashing the JB 4.1.2 Indonesian firmware, my Google search has stopped working. No matter what I do it always crashes.
I don't have option to uninstall updates from app manager. Does any of u guys have an older version of Google search? Would be really glad if u can post it for me.

Hi Manipur,
Try to download this:

Let me know if any problems.
Whether Samsung or Google, the android environment can come across as chaotic. So much going on with all various versions.
Samsung keep selling us pretty much the same devices with new software, I'm not particularly impressed their pace of improvements.
Google products seems to work well on Apple ios, android is still missing functions available Apple for a good while now, funny how that works.

Oops. Too bad, that is the oldest one I have, and it works fine in my case.
I know I'm not the only one with this issue, anybody have an any ideas as to why Google search no longer works, even after new updates. On My wife's Note II she gets all the updates with no issue, she is also running 4.1.2. This is really pissing me off.

Im new on nexus 5 forum so im sorry if i havent read some of these.
I wanted to know if CF rooting, i can underclock my device so i could save battery? And yeah i havent rooted my n5 yet. I need an easier way :/ those adb drivers driving me nuts with my windows xp(i know i broke my laptop with win7)
So yeah can i? I also wanted to try the display control(color changing) so does cf rooting do it?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app
Hi,
You should read what CF-Root does: http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/orig-development/nexus-5-cf-auto-root-t2507211.
It only unlocks your Bootloader and root your device, it's not something to control the kernel (CPU) settings.
To underclock and use the coulour control you need an app (easier) and a custom kernel that includes the colour control feature, see the dev sections.
For battery life you should take a look at your use, settings and apps if you have a "bad" battery life, maybe something is draining your battery as unusual (it depends what is your battery life actually with what kind of use).
Can i install custom recovery with cf root? All these drivers are making me nuts. They arent doing well with windows xp :/

You need to flash the custom recovery via fastboot...
However, once you are rooted, you can use Flashify to flash things!

Just get the drivers fixed. If you run into trouble whilst modding your phone, you'll need your computer working with drivers to fix it so it's best to address that issue first. If you can't get the drivera working, DON'T ROOT. There are no useful shortcuts.

I don't use PA, so I'm not sure. However, the PA team has made a complete overhaul in their approach towards the rom. That's why you can't see any specific PA rom settings anywhere.
Besides that, the align thing needs to be done either at source or by decompiling the systemui.apk afaik.

Just wait for some time until developers are able to get the phone (invites will roll out next week on friday), so give it another month and there will be more ROMs here for sure. Just be patient!
I am positive we are going to at least see a ColorOS version pop up, it by far is already a ROM we can flash only needs converted to English if it hasn't already.
We should see custom ROM support when more people and developers finally get the device in hand.

How can i get Android L apps on non-rooted 4.4.4 Nexus 5? Is that possible? I tried few keyboard .apk's but they dont work. I havent tried anything else yet, does something work from L on non-rooted 4.4.4 ?
Ps. And i will not root, i am tring to get these without rooting on my phone. Is that possible without having to root? Any skins maybe somewhere? That would do i guess for a while :/
why would you need root to install apps? do you know what root is? all root is is the permission to change whatever files or anything you want in the system. apps dont need it to install. just download them and install like any other app.
We will get Android L ota nearly (I think)

My wife uses viper. Myself I used it back in the day but not in a long time just don't seem to work as good for me as other's. Viper is good if you don't know how to edit or mod anything you know. Badseed is nice as the whole ROM is inverted big plus for me that is.

I used to run inverted on my S3 all the time because of the battery saving it provided for the amoled display. Since this is a super lcd display, that's a none issue, and I'm trying to run everything white just because I can.
I'm still running stock because it's so quick. On my S3, stock touchwiz was so slow and buggy I had no choice but to install a new rom.
However, there are many more roms available in the international m8 forum correct? Is there a way to tell if they'll work with our phone? Or do they have to say it's specifically compatible with the Verizon variant? The last thing I want to do is flash something and have it missing the CDMA band needed to get data. Also would super CID basically allow flashing of any rom we wanted.

They'll say if they work for Verizon or not. SuperCID would allow you to flash any carrier Rom, but I doubt you would get data or anything, maybe 1x...that's more for like if you want to take your phone to t-mobile then you would be able to flash a tmobile Rom and be good to go (whether you get LTE or not on tmobile is a diff story).

Yup, stock rooted. Love it. I don't usually flash too often anyway. Just want something as stable and bug free as possible. So I'm thinking I'll probably end up running bonestock or cleanrom. I'm also extremely intrigued by the gpe rom.
I'll start flashing soon, but I generally don't like flashing too often.
