I was just wondering if there was a way to make the "google search" app use goole.co.uk instead of .com.
It kind of an annoying feature not being able to set it
well guyz i've found a way to make voice search in google now possible
but the problem that it's not free
here the way:
- Voice Search on Google Now (kind of):
1. Install Voice Search from the Play Store
2. Install this app (now requires $0.99): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1770100
3. Long-press search key (or open app drawer), and pick Voice Search Assistant with the blue microphone icon
4. App will capture voice using the old Voice Search, then send it to Google Now
5. Press search button on keyboard
cheers
if i helped you simply just press thanks
Hi,
Is it possible to hide apps from Google Play so that it doesn't see them as installed? I have a few apps that are outdated and don't want to update them. It would be nice to hide them somehow so that I stop getting prompts to update from Play.
Thanks.
Can you still search for emojis when using the Google Keyboard? For whatever reason I can't seem to get that option anymore.
Is there an option to remove that widget from homescreen?
There must be a solution to this without using a different launcher.
No, if you search on the Mi A1 forum (basically the same device), nobody found a way to remove the search bar from the stock launcher, because it is hard-coded.
The only way is using another launcher (Nova recommended) or modify the stock launcher apk to remove the bar, and replace it.
Maybe this works?
Disable the Google App
Danielle Furry recommends disabling the Google app in settings, which works for a range of Android versions. Here's how it works:
Open Settings, then open Apps
In the All apps list, find Google app, or just Google, tap it and select disable
Reboot your phone and the search bar should be gone!
If you disable the Google app, don't worry about breaking your phone. Apps like Google Play Services are essential for your system (unless you build your OS outside of Google's ecosystem), but your other apps will work fine without the Google app.
Do be warned however, the Google Assistant and voice search depend on the Google app, so disabling the Google app will also negatively affect dependent services such as Google Home, Google Lens, and Google's notifications about weather and transport, for example.

Worked for me. I used Nova Launcher Prima to remap the center button to open the app drawer instead of launching any Googly stuff. This frees up space to put more apps on the bottom row.

Same for me, there's a search bar remaining and not responsing at any tap...
In my case too. After disabling app, widget is still there. Tried 1st day when phone coming
Waiting for TWRP and then will freeze google app with Titanium. That always worked in my case
