[AC Question]

The message keeps popping up (every few minutes) "unfortunately Google Search has stopped" on my husbands cell and he does not want to use any internet on this cell. This message stops him from being able to text and won't turn off while on calls.

Try Settings, Apps, All, Google, select Clear Cache, and Power Off and Restart the phone.
If no go, try a Cache Partition wipe.
