Google now Launcher : Quick search not working - Huawei P9 Questions & Answers

hi Guys ,
I am having a weird problem
I have google now launcher and the Material V UI theme on my p9 .
Everything works well except the quick search on the App drawer. It cannot search any app.
For example I have the BBC app but as soon as i type B in the quick search box of the app drawer , it says no apps found and shows a link to send me to the play store
Has anyone had experience like this ? any pointers on how i could solve it ? I already tried uninstalling and re installing the Launcher and it didnt work

I have the same problem on my Xperia M5. No idea how to fix.

And regarding own emui/huawei widgets...Are they working? Or it doesn't as on ActionL, NovaL and others?

I had this problem too, fixed it by: Long Press home screen... Click the Google Now Launcher settings.... Click 'In Apps'.... Make sure 'Apps Names of Installed Apps' is checked. Mine was unchecked. As soon as I checked it, App searching worked again.

The play store versions is not supported tho
Sent from my Koala via the XDA App.
Yeah I downloaded it, then it said that I haven't installed Facebook App, so I downloaded FB App and FB Messenger App, logged in and opened FB Home again... Then it told me that my device isn't supported :banghead:
Why not earlier?
I'm on CM 10.1 Stock Kernel, if anybody cares

i think it only works on CM10.1 or 4.2.2 devices. if you are using LG stock no harms trying still.
Download Facebook Home from Play Store, open it. On the default screen it should tell you FB home is not ready/available for your device yet
Below this notice there should be two buttons. One is something like 'Open the Facebook APP instead'. And the other 'Use Home anyway'
If you doesn't get the latter option then you can't use it 'officially'

May I know how you take screenshot?
Edit: I success capture already.
How did you install it? i see it on the play store but how did you push it to the gear?
So...
What use of posting this without method for how to install it..
Either you be co operative enough to share the installation method, or don't post at all..
That's so selfish if you just post without sharing the way and methods.
Some people will report ti moderators.

Here you go: http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2013...real-apps-running-on-the-samsung-galaxy-gear/
To put it simply, enable USB debugging, connect the device to your computer using a cable, and then use ADB to install apps/push content to your device
Here's the apk for the free version of smart launcher https://www.dropbox.com/s/pjakgpyyj3che69/ginlemon.flowerfree-1.apk

I installed Smart Launcher but how can i see notifications? Another issue i found is that if you switchon screen you can't switch off with hardware button, you must wait the auto sleep time...
Request - Keyboard video
I'm not ready to start pushing apps to my watch but I had a request for someone that did.
I'm wondering if someone can install the Fleksy keyboard & duplicate this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MkXW2-uGezs by typing in well..any app just to show off typing on the watch.
Thanks to anyone in advance.

If I could find a copy of the keyboard that would would I would do this. Every APK i have found has frozen when I tried it.

I haven't tried their keyboard in a while, but I didn't remember freezing issues. Assuming we can eventually get something like sms working, wonder which keyboard - if any - would really be practical for a watch. If not Fleksy - wondering about Minuum or Snapkeys or Flit or something.

when searching in ES File Manager I use google keyboard and its working great so far. I cannot wait for my Omate TrueSmart to arrive, hopefully it will have a perfectly running fleksy keyboard that we can pull from the watch and run on the Gear.
On another note, I got the Fleksy keyboard loaded on the watch, but am having a hard time enabling it, there is no true Android Settings on the watch to change input.
Going to play around with ES File Manager and see if I can manually set it keyboard.
I tried smart launcher briefly, but ended up going with nova and deleted SL.
I have used Nova Prime forever in my phones (after trying every launcher available including the ridiculously overpriced POS Next Launcher)
I decided Nova was the best launcher for the gear watch also.

I tried Nova first, but with the last of widgets its kind of hard to see what time it is.
Once we get a custom "ROM" on here I will go back to Nova, until then SL is working pretty well

Well. I use the stock TW launcher for everyday use as I like the clocks etc. you get from TW.
I switch to Nova when I will be doing more app switching......
So far I've tried Apex, GO, Nova, ADW, and Smart Launchers, and I'll be sticking with Smart. It's the only one that keeps the clock on the home screen. Loaded UP Icons as well and have been using those.
Now if only I could figure out how to get the Pro version of Smart Launcher on the Gear. I purchased Pro for my Note 3, but can only export the Smart Launcher Pro folder from the Note 3, and can't drop that back into the Gear. Any ideas? Would like to toy around with some of the features (mainly the other color options).

You may need to move it to system apps
i installed the GE launcher and is not working FYI
Do you have your gear connected to bluetooth internet?
Nop, do I need it for the GE launcher?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app
out of curiosity, why would you even want to try it? it's in early stages, with barely any customization. can't even change icon easily. i'd recommend sticking to verified apps like nova. works without issues.
For the voice search
no it is not working... i mean... launcher is working fine, but voice search like OK GOOGLE is not working... tired everything... only working solution for voice search is google voice search https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.voicesearch
.... but you wont get voice feedback an no auto listening like in g.louncher (OK google..btw realy awesome featur)... if someone has working solution please share....

Still no fix for autodimm bug? (b150)

Dimming is still present while openning chrome and google email,did anyone found solution for this?
I also have this problem Im on latest firmware its so annoying b151
I can confirm that disabling the Power Genius app will stop this bug. I used to hate it and it was persistent on the Huawei launcher and Nova, but not in other launchers. I tried everything because I love Nova. Disabling that app with "Disable service" fix it :good:

It's the power genius apk. It's a system app. If you're rooted I think you can disable it. Not sure if you can without root.

dual app bug on Nova launcher

Hi
Anyone facing this problem? When I use nova launcher for open dual apps, it show permission denied. But if I use stock launcher, there is no issue on this.
Please help. Thx

Yep, it is the same on mine.
Report it to nova…
I don't know if it's the same issue I found in Pixel Launcher, but in order to launch any dual app you must select the original app and it will give you the option to open the cloned one. This works for me.

Yes, the same problem here on the Xiaomi Mi9. I have made a Dual App from What's app.
I get two icons in the app drawer, but I can only place one on the home screen. On the secondary icon, I get a permission denied error.
As far as I know, there is not really a workaround.
I have the same issue with dul app on Whatsapp. August now ... Still having that issue.
Same problem on my Mi9
Open app drawer on nova, find and run the original app (not the cloned one) , nova will ask you to choose between original app and cloned app. select cloned app and it will run without problem.
