Anyone having this issue?

OK, I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 (Verizon - the black one, not that that matters!) and have been running Liquid Smooth for a while now. (2.10) I installed the libs, APK's and all is working great but I have one issue. How do you get to the phone settings? When I hit the menu button and I hit the setting gear Icon, all it does is take me to the Google Now/Search settings. I had to switch back to Nova launcher.

I did like how the Icons are scaled a little larger and it was smooth. I like the new hangouts with SMS too. And I had no issues with slow searches. Thanks and really cool stuff!

Works excellently on my S2 i777!

You have to use Root Explorer to do it. I tried doing it using ES File Explorer with root access and that couldnt do it. Root Explorer can, though.
[Android Apps and Games] darkvice01:
Seems like compatibility issue between the launcher and app.. Was it for the developer to update their app for 4.4
[Android Apps and Games] gian569:
it's fine with es explorer, just open the left bar and look for 'root explorer'. then 'mount to read/write' and set all to RW.

i don't think so, i tried to move some apps and seems that i'm always losing the icon of the apps which are on sd card...
[Android Apps and Games] kerfex:
Thank you

Well there is one thing I don't like about 4.4...... But thanks for the info!
[Android Apps and Games] darkvice01:
So have you tried moving the app back to your internal storage?
[Android Apps and Games] velles2003:
it ain't working on mai razr maxx xt912 with 4.1.2

i get FC google searches.

i tried replacing, deleting, rebooting.. not working for me sadly
[Android Apps and Games] gian569:
yes but i have a desire hd, i don't really have all of that much free space, so it's not a solution for me....
[Android Apps and Games] darkvice01:
Maybe what you can do now is wait if the developer of the app will provide update which they do when new firmware comes up..

If anyone is still having problems after installing the lib file, try going in with Root browser and changing the permissions on it from rw-rw-r-r to rw-r-r-r

[Android Apps and Games] azeem40:
Found a problem. Saying "Ok Google" doesn't seem to do anything from the home screen on my i777. The older version of my Google search app would let me say that phrase to start a voice search, but now it doesn't even do that.

Google now and search is broke even if I dont use the launcher on my HTC One GE. Is there any way to get these uninstalled and back to regular 4.3 GE state? Even if I try to type in a search it force closes.
[Android Apps and Games] hmaster1332:
Is your language set to Default English US? If not then OK Google won't work.
[Android Apps and Games] azeem40:
Yes, it is set to English US and it doesn't work.
[Android Apps and Games] geoworld_200:
Uninstall all the apks. Go to play store, download and install google search. That should do it :)
[Android Apps and Games] Acill:
I cant find the APKs to uninstall them. Just the launcher one.

To add more screens long press an app or add a widget, a blank screen will show up while you are holding the app or widget to place. Blank screens are automatically removed. ;)

Thats pretty darn cool.cant wait till i get kitkat and nexus 5 :P
[Android Apps and Games] eckmanmj:
After using the new Launcher for a day, one thing I am noticing is whenever Google Now is trying to update, and Im in an area that has a poor data connection, the entire Launcher is extremely slow and non responsive. It will eventually catch up as the data starts flowing.

I suspect its a combination of me running this on a 2 year old Galaxy Nexus and the fact that Google Now and the Launcher are now one in the same, so when one is slow, everything is slow.

No biggie, I can always go back to Nova, but I still like it! :)
[Android Apps and Games] AndrewWalker613:

[Android Apps and Games] assist4tech:
Works all fine on my Galaxy Note 2 running on Stock JB .. thank you
[Android Apps and Games] azeem40:
So I have to change it to UK or something? And which language settings are you talking about? The ones in system settings or in Google Now settings?
[Android Apps and Games] dzontra11:
Google now settings.
[Android Apps and Games] Justinchi:
For anyone who has this working on 4.1.2, what steps did you take?

New Google Now and Play Services work fine. Launcher won't open. The first error message was about Placeholder Text missing. It just says, "Google Search has stopped working" Now.
[Android Apps and Games] Miqueas111:
It works extremely good in my phone. It's a Note 2, but in my Xperia P running 4.1.2. I can not use it. When I hit the launcher app. Pops up a chart to select the default launcher.

I choose Google and immediately says Goggle Search Force Close.

I've ready tried. Changing the file in the OP,

BTW, I don't have the exact file. I have libgoogle_recognizer_jni.so

NOT libgoogle_recognizer_jni_l.so

They difference in the termination, one has the "_l" and the other no.

Changing the language to UK. Downloading the speech UK and US. But nothing.

What can I do?
[Android Apps and Games] darkvice01:
That's weird guys coz I got it working with my girlfriends non-rooted NOTE 2 without any issues at all.. Check my instruction on page 32 or 34 I think.
[Android Apps and Games] azeem40:
It still doesn't work. No matter if it is UK or US, the Ok Google feature doesn't work. :(
[Android Apps and Games] Durocks:
Same problem here! Apps that are stored in the SD card will disappear after each reboot with the KitKat launcher! Please send me an email or a PM if any of you find a solution, other from "Moving to internal memory"...

Phone: Blu Life Play

Android 4.2.1

Thanks, Durocks

PD: To the others, the way to make "Ok Google" work from the homescreen es by adding a file to /system/lib/, that replaces the older one. Here, follow this steps:

Edit 2: Google Search likes to crash even after switching between languages, so a different solution may be to copy the following file into "/system/lib" and set permissions to rw-r-r-.

(Rename the original to libgoogle_recognizer_jni_l.so.bak before copying.)

libgoogle_recognizer_jni_l.so (Tested, confirmed working! Google search works perfectly with this fix. Saying, "Ok Google" from the any of your Homescreens or Google Now activates voice search. All search queries performed were successful and crash free.)

You have to look for that specific kitkat file yourselves, since i can't post links because i'm new.
[Android Apps and Games] azeem40:
Copying that .so file didn't help. I still can't use ok Google. Guess I will have to live with it. :(
[Android Apps and Games] Durocks:
Are you sure you have Ok Google activated? Go to Google Now Settings > Voice > Offline Speech Recognition > English > Update (If available)
[Android Apps and Games] azeem40:
I am positive have that updated.
[Android Apps and Games] damagedbits:
I'm getting the same problem as well. I already copied the file to /system/lib and checked to see if there was an update for offline recognition.
[Android Apps and Games] Durocks:
Does Ok Google work inside your Google Search App?

No, but before installing the KitKat apps I could at least just say "Google" and it would bring up voice search but now the only way to do that is to tap on the actual icon.

Problem

After running Laucher. It says "PLACEHOLDER: Google Search not found". But Google Search is there and working perfectly.
[Android Apps and Games] Dovidhalevi:
Working in Armv6! Somewhat ...

Miracle of miracles.

I extracted the lib file from the old modded version and placed that one. Lo and behold, the thing came up. Got search results through the online voice search assistant as I have been doing. Any attempt to use Google Search's voice recognition will FC it, including trying to get to the voice properties. With the 4.4 lib, I could get there but the app would close immediately.

Except one wierd instance where ... I got its mic, initializing en-US (srec en-US not symlinked), it took my voice and gave results. Just once. Took off the voice search assistant shortcut overlay, clicked the mic, FC as always.

Somebody can explain what has happened?

Note that after such adventures, the Trebuchet launcher is not working. Have to restart it.

Running on an LG P500, cm10.2 ROM.

I copied the system/ folder, and replaced all the files within to /system... Didn't think I'll break anything... Any ideas?

The launcher works great! One minor problem perhaps... I don't have the new app drawer icon, I have the old one, the one from ICS, the one from JB, not the KK appdrawer icon... Any ideas how to get the KK appdrawer icon?

The keyboard problem is a bug in the closed code (by Google) on the launcher, nothing to be done.
