Hi all, is there a way to add a button to open directly the keyboard and make a google search quicky? The best i can do now is to have a complication with google access, but it requires a couple of click to access to keyboard search.
Is there a solution to have a keyboard search in a quick way?

Hello all!
I'm trying to get the old google voice search to work on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (n9005). Here's a link to the app in question.
Edit: I'm apparently not allowed to post links since I'm a relatively new member. If you search for "Voice Search" on Google Play, you'll see it.
I dislike the new google voice search and I'd prefer to revert to this. Sadly, even though I did manage to successfully install the app after rooting and removing the newer version, I can't get the voice commands to work. I've done a number of google searches on the subject and I can't find anything helpful. I already have the language set to US English.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance!

Hey guys,
Another question which im guessing I already know the answer to but here goes:
Can the Smart Key be used as a home button and not just a shortcut to applications. I realised that if I use a different launcher on my phone then I am able to do that but instead, im using the default Honor launcher.
Anyone?
I didn't find a way to do it with the stock apps, however if you're rooted you have a couple options. I can vouch that the Xposed Edge module is able to remap the smart key to the home screen. Without root there are a couple button remappers in the play store if you want to give that a shot, but the two I tried wouldn't read the smart key as a button.

I spent the morning trying out all the applications on the play store. I'll have my Chinese friend look at the HiApp store. It's driving me insane due to it being such a simple thing.
I was looking at finding an application which simply brings you back to the homepage when you click it, which would resolve the issue, however, the idea seems stupid for one to even exist.
Found it. Great application. Works.
My friend found this on the hiapp store but I think you'll be able to find it elsewhere.

Good stuff, man. Glad you found an option for non root users. It's in the Google play store as well under the same English name btw.
This video tells you how we can revert back from the new Google Assistant and replace it with the older Search widget.
This does not require root at all!
The reason for me to revert back is that I prefer to use text commands rather than voice commands. Also, I like to often bring up the text based search widget when I am in other apps. Google Assistant has this limitation that we cannot type our query. Till the Assistant brings the typing functionality, we can fall back to our old but working Google Now.
Note that this will not enable the NOW ON TAP option, but it will enable us to use the other features, like searching and using the text based commands available in Google Now.

Hello all,
This is probably a noob question but I wanted to know if it is possible to create key words for your app on google play?
I looked for the feature on the google play console but I didn't find anything...
thanks

I don't like cluttering my Android phone's screen with a lot of icons
I like to have a single search for web search and apps search
I use Action Launcher
I set a gesture that will open Google Search
Until about January 20, 2021, I was able to just open Google Search either via the gesture I set, the Google search widget, or the Google app itself and start searching for the name of an application I have installed on my phone. For example if I typed "tele", in the suggestions the "telegram" app would show up. This was also working with Actions Search, no issues.
However, at around the date I mentioned above, this feature disappeared both from Google Search and Action Search. I guess Action Launcher's search uses Google to do the search and get the suggestions.
Now, if I do search with Google Search for "telegram app" and click search, the app will be the first result and I can click the card in the results and the app starts. But this introduces more typing and at least one more tap as well.
Interestingly enough, if I fire up the Google Assistant, switch to keyboard and type "telegram" the app will start. Further searches will suggest it, so I can type just "tele", but it still requires an extra click (I have to click the keyboard because assistant starts in voice mode, and starting in text mode is even worse because it start without focusing the text field so I have to click twice, once to focus the input field and once more on the field to fire up the keyboard)
So far I tried clearing Google app's cache and restarting the phone several times. It didn't help.
I also checked in settings -> Personal Results that installed apps are checked. I even unchecked/rechecked it with a Google app cache clean in-between.
Do you guys and girls have any suggestions?
