Usually when typing in search words in Google using the stock browser you are able to tap one of the suggestions that come up and it should take you browse the search results. However, I just realized that it doesn't work. I start typing in the search bar at google.com and Google starts to populate a list of suggestions but when I tap on one it either does nothing or searches only on what I have typed to the point when I tap the suggestion.
Has anyone else seen this? It's very odd. I hope it's not one of these apple lawsuit things.
Thanks

You have to click the arrow to the right of the results that you wish to search. Dont know why this was changed.

Yes the new Maps 5.7 let's you finally DOWNLOAD maps for offline.
no point of downloading if you cant search adress, plain routes or anything....
at least in mine, i cant do these offline
You're right BUT it's at least great for offline exploring desired area, the place you visit abroad especially when the country has horrible internet roaming prices, imagine you go from US to Europe or from EU to Russia or Israel.
In this case it's quite helpful.
I cant seem to figure out how to downlowd maps...can someone help me? What option do I chose?

Yes true this menu is quite hidden.
Awyway you tap and hold on map and get the typical "bubble" with the address, so click it and in the end of the options menu there is "download area" or something like that.
The downloaded area is under Cache Settings.
Useful.
Cant seem to download !!! No download option

You might need to enable it in the labs options

I'd rather ask the question: why people don't explore apps anymore?

Press the capacitive search button while on the home screen. Or use the search app in the app drawer, or add the google search widget to your home screen. You might be blind.
Huh, I always thought that was the Call Sherlock Holmes button. Learn something new every day.

Hi guys!
I new to this forum section because I'm coming from Nexus S.
I want to ask if is possible that instead of the voice command when we double click to open the search app. or recent tasks.I know that we have the recent tasks by hold the menu button pushed but with the double click is a little quicker.
Maybe it answered but I did not found it yet.
Sorry could you be more clear? i didn't understand what's your problem

I think he asks if its possible to set double tap home button as task manager. He already knows long pressing works as task manager but he wants the double click do the job
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
Yes something like yhis. Or the double typing could be the search button. So is this possible or not?

I havent heard
I havent heard of any rom that does this. Usually all roms ive seen and flashed..(and trust me.... ive flashed almost all of them....), have taskmanager set to long press on the home button... ill search around and see what i can find.
Im saying this because when i had Nexus S I could use the search button for the recent tasks.

Hello!
It's hard to not find pretty much anything with the search here on XDA, but this one I have no clue...
The contact search by T9 in the dialer works ok, but it's extremely slow when you click the little arrow in the right to open the results... Anyone know a workaround?
Besides that the other thing that annoys me is the need to click the dial button after already select the number wanted... One wasted click, why not dial right after?
Thanks! And sorry for my English!

Google Voice Typing is no longer available on the the keyboard for text messaging. The microphone icon is now missing, and under Settings>Language and Keyboard, Google Voice Typing is greyed out and unavailable. Anybody else have this issue? I used this option a lot before updating to JB.

I'm sorry, but I'm using the Standard (Qwerty) and I don't see anything next to the space bar, and long pressing it does nothing but type multiple spaces.

Thanks. I just shut down my phone completely and re-started it after a couple of minutes and the microphone icon is there over the period. I had done this after updating JB, PRI, and PRL but I guess it didn't take. Second re-start worked. Thanks again.
