About LinkBacksDid a factory reset and everything went well...except, I now cannot find Google Voice Search. The app shows in the Play Store as having been installed, and it also show in the 'manage apps' section. But there's no icon for it in my apps, and so I have no way to create a shortcut for it on my home page. Help!!!

07-16-2012 04:11 PMIt looks like they took that actual app out of the app drawer. If you press the search button it will come up and you can just tap the mic button.
Also you could make that your double tap home command by going into Settings>Accessibility>and scroll down to the bottom and choose Double tap home launch, make that voice search.Last edited by Sydman; 07-16-2012 at 04:14 PM.

Spot on! Followed your steps, then went into the widgets section of the app tray and there it was.
