N7 Google Search acting wonky for you?

Over the past week+, even before the latest update, Google Search has been acting wonky...

Note: I am often in an environment that isn't ideal for voice searches, so all my searching is initiated by tapping the search bar. I don't know if the problems that I am reporting occur with voice initiated searches...

Many times when I search no search results will come up... it will just sit there...

Clicking on images at the bottom always brings up results and then clicking back on web sometimes 'wakes up' search and produces search results.

I dislike Google Now and have that disabled...

Searching from within Chrome by typing a search on the URL bar always works and doesn't exhibit this problem...

What I have done to try to remedy it:

> Uninstalled Google Search updates and gone back to factory
> Force stopped three apps/services and cleared data: search, voice search and google services framework
> Removed and reinstalled my Google Account from the device

None of those steps fixed the problem...

Has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks...

I think its google service outage which happened a week ago. google now service might have went down which broke the performance.

like mentioned above read the other thread.
 
ugh... I tried to include all relevant info but forgot to mention that I have Google Now disabled...

Google Now is disabled ...

Wouldn't a service outage affect all Google searching, not just one type? Searching from Chrome is unaffected ...

google now service is different. remember few weeks ago we started getting login issue. it was specifit to google now and it was broken and couldnt get the details.
their search logic might be same but service is different.

Ok that is plausible...

I wonder if the root of my problem might be the fact that I have Google Now disabled...

Maybe *that* is causing the problem...
