Does anyone know if there is a way to edit previous searches on android phones without the trackpad/d-pad. If you pull up a previous search in the quick search box, you have the option to select it. Once you select it, it will immediately begin searching but it will not give you the option to edit your previous search parameters? Any workarounds?

Android maintains search histories for the Google search widget, market, etc.
but you can't EDIT past searches.
You can't do variations of previous searches by changing or adding a word to the past search.
You can't correct a typo in a previous search..
The only option is to re-type the entire thing, while the phone displays the previous search with the wrong character, but not letting you fix it..
Personally, this is one of the most frustrating things about Android.
Google is all about searching, but they certainly got it wrong with Android's built-in search..
I feel dumb, but I can't work out how to edit the previous search entries to use them for new searches. Do I really have to type the same stuff over again just to add or remove a space, etc?
View 3 Replies View RelatedMy search entries on the App Market are starting to mount. Anyone know how I delete some of my previous searches? These aren't causing any issues with the phone, I just wanted to tidy them up.
View 6 Replies View Relatedhow to make my Google search app list my most recent searches. This used to happen automatically on my old phone, but not on my new phone.
Now when I open Google search all I get is a blank search bar with nothing underneath.
Type some long market search, and misspell it, search fails. Now, there it sits in the history, with ONE letter bad, but you can only do the same, incorrect search again by tapping it.Am I missing something, or is it true that I have to enter the whole thing over again if I miss one letter. Same applies to variations on searches, such as "red truckload of elephants" and "blue truckload of elephants" No way to go back and just change red to blue.

I'm not sure what is selected on the previous Activity, but obviously something is. I'd like to programmatically wipe any selection just before the Activity finishes.

Is there a way to restore/retrieve my contacts?
