search contacts in google search bar ics

I cant seem to find the option to enable search contacts in searchable items from google search bar after upgrading my xperia s to ics.. Why did they remove that feature?? It makes life harder for me to send sms and make calls!
true
This is idiotic. I too have Xperia mini pro with 4.0.4 and it works. But on XPS it doesn't even appear in searchable items. Any thoughts?
Anyone has any ideas on this subject? I've updated to latest UK firmware and this issue is still not fixed. How do you search your contacts? It's annoying to use Contacts application ONLY.
Me too
I also have this problem on my acro S, norwegian version, ICS 4.0.4.
Does anyone know if this is in Sony's firmware or if it's an Android thing?

Suspect it has to do with Asspple patent.
Try Aurora Universal Search - it is an addon to the Google Search Bar, and it allow you to search Contacts and a few others more things from your phone.

Dialer integration to google maps

Hi, I am looking for any mod/rom/app which integrate dialer with google maps/navigation.
Android phone is almost perfect device for me but there is one huge problem with navigation when driving and someone call you then dialer covers whole screen when pickup the call.
So far I have found that only htc navigation works well with dialer but unfortunately the only navi app is best for me is Google Navigation.
So the question is...
Does exist any application or mod which activating that feature on android phone
Any one already tried to develop this ?
I have already spent around 100pounds on navigation apps that I dont like and I am able to pay some cash to have that option available on google maps and I think many people will be happy from this feature is well, so if you have any info how to do this please tell.
Questions should be posted in Q&A forums, not Development forums.
Thread moved.
anyone?
or any hint where to look for sensation dialer that show up when driving ?

[Q] updated to JB, but no google now

my friend's S3 recently received an update to JB. he updated it through Kies. He decided to test the new feature of the google search app called Google Now but he cant see it. Going to the settings of the said app, there should be an option for Google NOw there, but in his phone, there is none. Even the UI which is supposed to show mountains and cards is not in his S3's google search app, his is just plain search box UI.
What could be are the problems?
Look at your apps, it's simply called Google. (blue box, white G) and when launched it gives some info on Google now and asks if you want to use it. In Applications Manager it says Google Search.

Nope, it did not ask any questions whether we would like to use Google NOw
THE ANSWER IS: language of phone should be English(UNited States)...tsk tsk..
Well the language of my phone us English (United Kingdom), but thanks for your comment, I hope you get any further help you need with that kind of attitude.

[Q] Google search show result only once

Nexus 10 4.2.2 no root, original ROM. I search picture over google search bar. Example I search BMW, I see lot of pictures BMW cars, I slide between them. Now I search example Ford and I see lot of picture again. But if I search BMW again and click on any pictures I do not see picture, only black screen with google logo and information about copyright. Same situation is on HTC One 4.2.2 It is android bug?
Edit: Probably is bug in Google search app. I found the solution. Version Google search is 3.3.11.1069658 If I uninstall update to version 3.1.8.920880 everything works.

Block trending search terms in google search app for android

Really annoying: when I open my Google quick search app (long press home) I get trending terms and topics I've never searched.
Did a downgrade to a last year version, same problem.
Does anyone know how to block (I'm rooted), and could please tell how?
Or any suggestions for an alternative Google search app?
Thank you.
