Google search not working after update, help

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:
http://sdrv.ms/18hoDxb
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.

I think that reboot and crash happens in system apps...maybe the partition is corrupted?

What apps do crash exactly? Have you tried a factory reset in /settings/backup and restore?

Yep,did everything and no hope,now i realize that the screen starts to flicker a little bit before reboot,i hope that the problem isn't a wireless charger that i bought in amazon and used last two months,do you think will be a problem to RMA?
Thanks

[Q] Google camera update - Can't connect to camera

My phone updated the Camera app yesterday and right after the back camera stopped working. The front camera works, but as soon as I try to switch to the back camera it gives me the Can't connect to camera message. I tried rolling back the update and trying again, and it still wont work. Any tips?

Wipe data on the app?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Same problem...it doesn't even give me a back camera option.

This is what usually happens when the camera module goes faulty.
This is what I'd do (in order)
1) factory reset
2) flash factory images
3) RMA
If you're not comfortable with 2, don't do it. Skip to 3

Yes it could which is why you should follow my steps. I didn't advise them for no reason
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Steps 1 and 2 didn't work.
I don't know how to execute step 3, since I live in Croatia (bought the phone from the Google Play Store in California) and there is no support here.
Any other tips?

Are you sure you did step 2? Because your mentioned Cyanogen after I gave the 3 steps, which isn't a factory image.
If you've flashed the factory images as per this location:
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
And you still have the issue, it needs to be repaired. I can't tell you how that is done in Croatia

Uninstall the update and see if the problem persists.

That is the location I downloaded the stock image rom and ran the process. Looks like I'll have to figure out how to get it to Goolge.

Screen Rotation Fix

I have been on an early version of CM 11 forever and never had any problems until a few days ago my screen rotation stopped. I tried toggling auto rotate on and off with no luck. I rebooted the phone many times with no luck. I even updated to 11.0-XNPH05Q with no luck. Any body have any suggestions on what to try here? Thanks

Anything?

What if I clear the device cache?

Your best bet is to update to COS 1.3.1.1 with lastest firmware.

I wont lose anything by upgrading that much right? That's like 2 whole versions of Cyanogen ahead of where I am at now.

You should not, just by updating, if you are completely stock.

Not sure why screen rotation issues started, but I guarantee it is a firmware issue. I remember CM11S had screen rotation issues but then. But updating to COS 13.1.1 will also update you to lastest firmware and should fix your issues.

Yeah. Signal was better on KK and LP. Old firmware did better with signal. I still get LTE, but it was better on older firmwares. As far as YouTube app, not sure. But glad you screen rotation is working ?

Damn, there are a lot of things I read on this forum that causing me to think of canceling my phone.

Just submitted an RMA for my device. The proximity sensor over the last 3 days hasn't been working properly and wont activate the screen when I try to hang up a call after pulling the phone away from my head.

What root method did you use gvsukids? I'm getting my phone today and will be rooting it. Just concerned now..

Seems that chrome wasn't installed and that was causing the issue. After installing boot.img from magisk, I was able to sign-in to play store and now don't need the RMA.

You are hero!!!!! Thanks for this

Had this same problem when I flashed Android 8(Oreo) on my Samsung Galaxy S7 edge (SM-G935V) that came with android 6.0.1(Marshmallow). I solved this by simply clearing the cache of google play services and updating my google apps...and it was working fine.

I resolved the same issue on a different device by installing Android Web View. If issues persist, try (re-)installing it. Mine was a custom ROM which apparently had issues with Web View.
