I realize I'm bumping an old thread, and quoting a nearly-4 year old comment, but nobody acknowledged the solution Ken offered above which was for me the most elegant of those offered in this thread. Works on my Droid Turbo with Lollipop and the stock camera app. It's much easier than sorting...

Alright...I've tried several different black themed search boxes, and all present the same (but at least it's not the default white theme). I've confirmed rw-r--r-- with system ownership, also fixed permissions from CWM, wiped dalvik and cache, etc. Not sure what else to check, or...

Hey guys... I revisited this, and discovered why my search box wouldn't change from the default white, even after replacing the search box apk in /system/app. It's because the "working" apk files on my X's CM7 are found in the /data/app folder. Probably a 2nd init thing, whereupon the apk...

I've been clearing caches and data after making changes, and before installing the widget almost since I started with this little item. Root Browser seems to be taking it's icon (again, now black with a green G) from inside the apk, but the system isn't using that file...that much I can say for...

I have the same two icons in my widget list also. I've been selecting the blue one expecting it to install the new black widget, but it's white every time. I also tried selecting the "Search" widget also, but it's just like the other one apparently. The ONLY change I've affected so far is...

Ok, I found a completely different black searchbox (though it's quite similar) on a different site, and the same thing happened with that one when I try installing it on a desktop (a white 4x1 widget), BUT...when I view the file in Root Browser now, the icon is a green G on black instead of a...

The way I did it was to rename the original first, then copy the new one in place, then copy the renamed original onto the SD (yeah, a little anal initially), so unfortunately I never got a sneak peek overwrite prompt. This last time I just wiped the file remaining there, and recopied the new...

Hmmm...I made the ownership changes (I verified same after rebooting), and it's still the default white box. Ok...perhaps I grabbed the wrong link? In the four above, I grabbed the "Solid Black" apk, and the "Black" zip file. I looked inside the zip file, and saw the appropriate apk embedded...

Well, that pretty well covered every single step I took, including the backup of the original which I stashed safely onto my SD except for changing the ownership attributes. My Linux noobility showing itself. :) Long press in Root Browser shows: Owner, 0-root Group, 0-root My long and vast...

Hi all...sorry to jump in where I wasn't invited, but I was searching the web looking for a themed Google search box, and found your thread. Anyway, the black search box mentioned above is also exactly what I'm looking for, so I "borrowed" the links, and got a copy to play with. I tried...
