Google Search Tips for S60

Started by Zach · 1 year ago

Stefan over at IntoMobile seems to REALLY dislike the new Google search app for a variety of reasons. They seem to stem from Google’s perhaps misleading video depicting a standard Google search in the S60 browser and a new search using Google’s app. The new app by the way, can be downloaded by hitting mobile.google.com […]SHARETHIS.addEntry({ ...

    how can you use Skyequikey together with the google app.?

    When I press the pencil to bring up the google app typing in it activates skyequickey so I can't search.

    I use in my E90 phoneshorcuts, so you asign one key to google search app.
    Can you share the name an author of that theme?

    @peter What phone do you have? On my N95-3 it works fine.

    @diego The theme is by Jendell I think - can't recall right now. No worries, it'll be posted here in a themes post next week.

    How do you tell the application to prompt for access point?
    It uses the Wlan as default and keeps the connection active at all times.

    @peter Oddly, SkyeQuiKey wasn't interrupting Google search until after the first time I rebooted since installing the Google app. Looking for a workaround...

    @Elad Actually, this app works the way ALL apps should work IMO. It will utilize any active data connection. If there are no active connections, I think it will use the last successful one.

    @diego No probs

    Personally I like this widget, takes around 4 seconds to search for anything on the internet, obviously connection dependant.

    This got me excited when I first heard about it.
    BUT it conflicts with SkyeQuiKey and I definitely won't give that up.
    And after using it a bit, honestly, I must agree with Stefan. It's not such a big deal. But it is, in my opinion, a good step forward from Google to create more user-friendly possibilities to use their search.

    @Vlad Agreed - The SQK conflict is a showstopper...
