They updated the google search app, it looks completely different now.

Thanks I though a app messed it ,
It auto updated.

You probably have a modded one installed and won't let you update. Delete the current one from system/app, then try redonwloading again.

Should be able to pull the .apk of the old one from any of your old ROMs and then freeze it with ROM Toolbox, TiBa, Terminal, etc... And then it can't update - though then it might not be usable since it's frozen At least you can pretend haha.

holy crap do want

I got it installed earlier and it's working fine.
On the forum someone said to set permission to:
rw-r--r
But by default its set to:
rwxrwxr-x
So I changed it to rw-r--r
I'm just curious how is the permission supposed to be set and how is it affected?

I deleted the original Gmail with TB as android police said. Downloaded the bata one rebooted and bam works like a champ! O don't forget to allow unknown sources!

It has to be rw-r--r if you are manually pushing it. If its not Android will go F*$K THAT! And then it won't run. It may work with the extra permission set. I has to be 644 or 755

The permissions being set tell android that it is ok to run an app. If the permissions are not set right it simply wont run, install, or show up at all. Android will say no.

That's weird because after installing by default permission was:
rwxrwxr-x
I checked, it was running fine no problem...
I just changed it to rw-r--r
Now, rwx = read/write/execute
So giving an app more accessibility I figured only let it do more not less?
Btw, I'm not saying your wrong, since this is the first time manually fixing permission, I'm trying to understand it...

It is working great. Thanks.

I tried that on my note 2 and it says "application not installed. Package with that name and different signature already installed"
Do I have to uninstall the original popup browser?
Edit: Actually I re-read it. I guess you cannot use this on stock huh?

No download from pop up. It works great though.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app

I have been searching for the last 3 hours looking for a solution. The best I can tell so far is that permissions are different from regular browser vs popup. I have been adding and removing to try and match permissions so that popup will have access to downloadmanager.
Oh and by permissions I dont mean file permissions but com.android.permission

There are no galaxy s4 apps "for sprint" lol... just download the system dump, extract the APK file you want, put it on your phone (push into system/apps, set permissions, etc) and see if it works! Of course always make a backup before trying something new!

4.4 Kit Kat GOOGLEHOME

I take no credit for this, Just found threads in other furums and wanted to put them in ours forums.
Here is a thread for GoogleHome with the search bar fixed, kept FC for people. flash the (New)googlehomev2 then after you boot up install the PrebuilGmsCore.apk file.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2506449
Here is the thread where the apk files are, also comes with all the apps as well
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2507529
Here are some screen shots of what it looks like.
Working on a installer that has all the new apps in it.
Here is a installer i put together with the Gapps, just flash and pick the ones you want, before you reboot you need to fix permissions. (aroma is a little touchy sorry, just hit the options to proceed a couple times then it will go)
http://d-h.st/PkM
Here is what the Readme file says from the link above:
By TweakerL
By no mean I take credit for any files in this package. All I have done is put everything in a single place and write these instructions.
Please read all these instructions before proceeding, failing to do so will most likely result in stupid questions, in which case I'll have to make fun of you.
1. Every app can be installed, i.e. you don't have to copy them to /system/app.
2. In order for Google Now/Google Seach to work properly you MUST copy libgoogle_recognizer_jni_l.so to /system/lib, replacing the original when asked.
3. In order for the Camera to work properly (namely the photosphere) you must copy libjni_filtershow_filters.so, libjni_mosaic.so and liblightcycle.so to /system/lib.
4. Some of the apps depend on Google Services 4 in order to work. Because of this I highly suggest that you install PrebuiltGmsCore.apk before installing any of the other apps.
5. You may not be able to install Maps.apk until you uninstall the one already present in your device.
6. Anything that requires adding/replace lib files requires that you be rooted. No way around it.
7. Before replacing/uninstalling anything that's already installed on your device, I suggest you perform a backup of the original in case anything should go wrong. You've been warned!

Thanks bro!! When I have some spare time I will check this out.

These are just the apks, doesn't have lib files, the lib files in the links are for the camera only. The apks I don't think need them or they are built in the app itself

This is really cool - love what GOOGLE NOW has become and despite a few things I would like differently, the GOOGLE HOME launcher is pretty cool.
I noticed that I have had to re-install the GOOGLE Core apk thing (whatever that is called) each time I reboot - which is kind of a pain - do you know if someone has come up with a fix that would let you install everyhting once and then you would be done with it?
Just the same - thanks for making us aware of this - very cool - h

I installed yesterday from a completely different perspective. Downloaded 3 separate files, home, velvet, and prebuiltcore. Click installed velvet, copied home.apk to system/app then rebooted phone. Ran fix for Google search found on phandroid. For some reason, my phone has no use for the prebuiltgmscore.apk. previous attempts renaming to gmscore and copy pasting into system/app failed for me. Weird, but I am not complaining as it work flawlessly.
