Google Search widget gone from Home screen. - General Questions and Answers

Good morning everyone. So I somehow managed to delete my search widget from my home screen and it's driving me crazy because I can't figure out how to get it back. I've tried looking in widgets but it's not there. PLEASE HELP!
Device: Samsung Galaxy S9+

There are a few ways to check:
1. Reset the Launcher App Data.
2. Reset Google App Data.
3. Reinstall Google App.
4. Check for Google App in the widget section.
5. Install A third party Google Widget.
If none of these work, reply me for further assistance.

To start, the dock is from an app. Launcher Pro. You will need to download the 3rd party apps from the post and then install Launcher pro. Then hit the phone menu button at the home screen, press on preferences--> appearance settings. Then choose dock style as Froyo wide. This will give you the color.
As for the apps you are missing, Backup assistance is a blur app, so that one is gone. I'm not sure if you can just redownload it from the verizon portion of the Market. Navigation, you should just use Google Maps. In order to get google maps back, download it from the market. The alarm clock function can be found under "clock" in Liberty. Click the Clock in the app drawer, then the icon on the bottom left to set alarms.

Thanks a ton!!
Everything works like a charm now.
for those reading this having the same questions, if you have backup assistant it is long gone, however you can go to backupassistant.com and log in, this will show you all your contacts click the select all option and click back up as an outlook CVS File.
Then go to Gmail and log in, click contacts and then click import and import the file you got from backup assistant.
All your contacts will now be saved to google. So your gmail will sync it to your phone and never again have to worry about backup assistant.
After i download the Iconpack, how can i make my icons look like that?

[Q] Home Screen problem

Hey everyone,
Sorry if this was before, I searched but couldn't find a similar problem. This started to happen after I uninstalled a music player app.
This "music player"-like shadow on the screen is annoying as hell. I can press the "Pause" button, but that's all. Everytime I lock the phone and wait a minute or two this appear. I wanted to install the app again, but I can't remember which one it was.
Is there any way to remove this..."thing"?
Thanks in advance.
What version are you running?
If it is 4.2 or above is it a widget?
Maybe go to Settings > Apps and look for the app that you uninstalled to make sure it is gone.
Im not really sure otherwise. Could possibly go to Play Store > My Apps and look for downloaded apps to reinstall and uninstall.

Found it, thank you! I searched widgets that looked like that "shadow" of mine and it was the 8tracks app I installed. As soon as I stopped it, the problem went away.
Thank you once again,
Cheers!
No problem, let me know if I can help with anything else

[Q] Setting up fresh install

Hello, I'll try to keep it short.
I have a nexus 5 since mid-august and the first thing I did was install CM11 using the installer.
There was a guy that helped me set it up back then, and I have no way of contacting him now. This is where you come in
I know I had the nova launcher installed but I also had the google now screen (when you swipe to the right). Also you could bring down the notification panel by swiping down in the middle of the screen.
Do any of you know how I can get the same functionality back? I've been searching the past hour but there doesn't seem to be a way to add the google now cards to the nova launcher even though I'm pretty sure that's what I had before I installed the new ROM.
Chances are you had either https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.launcher&hl=en or or Cyanogenmods CM Home launcher instead. I think both of those support what you're asking about.
Google now, no idea about but ye Nova has a gestures menu where you can set gestures to actions.
Nope, I had the nova launcher for sure, and now if I think about it I may have only had the google cards (some sort of widget), not the entire google now "page" .
Edit: Nevemind .. I just found the google now widget in the widget menu.

Question Google maps dark theme missing

Hi guys. I'm a satisfied samsung Tab S7 FE user, but there is one thing that annoys me. Google maps are always having white theme and I can not find any toggle in settings to change it. I have not found any solution yet (reinstalling an app, clearing cache and any data, latest update available installed). From my point of view, it looks like the google maps app does not support dark theme on this tablet. Of course it is not a very big deal, but I think that it should work on almost every device (there is no reason to delete it from settings section). If you have found a solution, please write the answer below. I would really appreciate that.

this is the google guide
try it
On your Android phone 10+ phone, open the Google Maps app .
Tap your profile picture or initial Settings. Theme.
Select one of the following options: Always in light theme: Dark theme is always disabled in Maps, regardless of system settings. ...
Tap Save.
source : google support
As I said, I can't find a toggle to change an app theme. On two of my phones I can change it easily. On the tablet this setting is not listed in settings section.

I think in tablets we can't change it because I have SM-T585 and google maps doesn't allow me to set dark mode theme
